FASHIONS IN COUTURE.
Quaint, Simple Modes Becoming to Beauty.
but Trying to Plain Women.

Quaint, Simple Modes Becoming to Beauty,
but Trying to Plain Women.
The world belongs to pretty women
and the fullness thereof is theirs, let
the wise ones argue as they will of in
tellectual superiority and spiritual
beauty. TO the woman with the fair
les gift all else shall be added, partic-
ularly in the domain of dress. 1t is for
the pretty woman that modes are made
and exquisite fabrics wrought. She
needs the consideration of the designer
much less than palmer woman, but She
receives it all the more in deplorably
unjust ratio. Particularly this season
does the plain woman feel bitterness
in her soul at being deprived, through
no fault of her own, of her birth-right.
For every fashion now demands the
sweet and gentle type of beauty known
to the Amelas and Chorillas of by
gone day before higher education and
smartness and swagger came in. The
style of couture prevalent only Ro-
mola or one of Miss Muloch's low
voiced women could wear with becom-
ingness, for the very latest thing in hair
dressing, copied from the old-time
mode, has smooth and glossy tresses
conbed trinity down on either side a
fine white parting, to be twisted in q
soft coil at the back. This style of
couture demands a delicate, youthful
face, low, broad forehead, and an ex-
quisitely nodded head. Another style,
much affected by young girls, is a mod
ification of the 1920 style, with ringlets
falling down either side the face from
a parting, the hair knotted high in a
puff in the center. The expression to
be worn with this couture should be
one of sweet modesty and gentle uno-
pinionatedness.
Still smarter and becoming to the
full-nedged belle or youthful matron
is that couture in which the hair is
tossed back from the forehead to fall
in soft, careless curls at the side or in
a single curl in the middle of the fore
head. Some women of the dark, Spanish
type, with faultlessly regular features,
dare attempt this style Of couture with
no curls, and the smooth hair combed
back lightly to the twist. Handsome
women are distinguished, intellectual
women striking with this sort of franz
ing. The woman who isn't so sure Of
herself and her beauty will part her
now dishonorcd bang little at the
side, perhaps, and leave the soft fringe
10 fall over her forehead. and the
petite style Of woman, who has an
irregular sort of beauty, waves her
hair ia Il tangle of curls, that fall back
apparently in spite of her, TO hutter
over her brow, while the sweet-faced
woman, with the small and pretty head
and not a great deal of time to think
of herself or her beauty any way un-
consciously copies the Mrs. Cleveland
couture, the soft, wavy hair combed
carelessly over back, TO be twisted in
knot at the center of the head

Harold and the Bird.

1t is interesting to study the simple
reasoning of children with their
strange interpretations and conneo'
lions of words.
Harold was but five years old, and
could not understand how his mother
knew of all his misdemeanors. When
questioned she usually replied: "a lit
tie bird told me the tale"
One day he was left alone in the
nursery, and to the dismay of the fam
lily he captured pet canary and re-
moved every one of its tail feathers.
When called to account, he said:
But | didn't want birdie to tell
tales on mel"

ABOUT APOTHECARIES.
Queer Use of Precious Stones by DOcto
of Ancient Times.

of Ancient Times.
1t is supposed that the Arab physi-
clans first inve nted the prescription,
and so gave rise to the necessity OF
providing a special place for the sale
of drugs. From Cordova and Granada
the practice passed into Italy. The
medical schools of Naples or Salerno
brought into use the prescriptions of
Avicenna and the ancients, and most
of the materials for medicine came
from Arabia and the distant east.
In many cities the apothecaries'
shops were established at the public
expense; gardens were prepared for
raising the necessary plan is and herbs;
laboratories furnaces and the means
of distillation were added; royal wo-
men sometimes presided over the prep
aration of drugs, and the court apothe-
cary was held in high esteem.
In Brunswick a princess maintained
drug shop at her court for the benefit
of the poor, and gave away medicines
and distilled waters to strangers as
well as to her own people.
The apothecary, however, had plenty
of defamers. Lemnius asserted that
the early English lived longest when
no physic was used in the island. Mon
:aigne suggests that doubtless his
father and grandfather reached a
peaceful old age because they avoided
drugs, and Cardan thought there was
much ''cozening" among doctors
But in spite of adverse criticism,
druggists shops, from the fifteenth CEN
fury, continued to spread rapidly over
Europe, and rose to such splendor that
it is not likely those of Bagdad or Cor
dova would have compared favorably
with their modern rivals
Among the early materials, precious
stones and jewels held high place. A
topaz, if hung about the neck, was
supposed 'to resist sorrow and recreate
the heart" The onyx kept the whole
body in good condition. Coral was a
cure for many ills; the emerald was
equally effective. But the loadstone,
according to Cabeus, the Jesuit, was
the most marvellous of all, for if take n
inwardly it would restore to the pa
tient his vanished youth.-Iouth's

tacks upward into the framework to
fasten them securely together.
Only three of the sides are to be COW
cred in; the back is all left open to
show the inside of the house. The
three walls in front are made of card
board covered on the inside with
pretty tinted paper. Before fastening
them to the framework draw the win
dows with a pencil, and with a sharp
penknife and scissors cut them out in
kind of lattice pattern. Paint the
walls on the outside pale gray, or in inn
itation of bricks. The door in the CEN
ter wall is not movable, being only
painted one. Paint it brown, leaving
pale gray lines to indicate the panels
and fanlight. Cover the framework
of the house with brown paper wound
around spirally, then neatly glue the
three walls in their places.
For the roof, cut six sections of card
board, each measuring seven inches at
the bottom and gradually sloping to
point at the top. Line these sections
with tinted paper Tor they may be
painted if preferred) and cover them
with the petals of fir cones glued on in
rows. Join the sections together, and
over each join place small, wooden
rod that has been gilded. These rods
should project half an inch beyond the
roof, and to the end of each suspend a
small gilded cone. The top sits down
cap-like over the frame of the house,
and should protrude over it about an
inch. The bottom of the outer walls
is also ornamented with the petals of
fir cones up as high as the window
sills, and two rows of them go up the
sides of the door and around the top
of it.
Small, gilt rods eight inches long are
placed all around the bottom of the
house lover the cone petals in front
and across space in the back, and are
fastened to each other and to the up
right posts with fine, brass wire. Four
little wooden rods of graduated lengths
are painted stone color and glued to
the terrace, to represent steps leading
up to the door.
The house may be furnished with
any pretty toy furniture. White cur.

Persistent Childhood.

A little girl made great clamor one
night after she had gone to bed, insist
ing that a certain doll named Elizabeth
should be brought upstairs to her. Her
mother finally called up to her, after
having commanded her two or three
times to keep still:
IF l come up, Mary, I shall certain
ly whip your
"A-all right, mamma" said the little
girl, choking back sob, ''and ~hes.

Another child, boy, behaved so
badly that his father said to him:
my boy, l shall certainly have to
buy whip to punish you with
"And after you've whipped me-" said
the boy, his face lighting up, may |
take the whip to play horse with?"

THE GOLDEN ROSE.
What 1t Is, Where 1t Is Made and How 1t
Is Bestowed.

What 1t Is, Where 1t Is Made and How 1t
Is Bestowed.
The Golden Rose, which the pope
presents as a good mark at intervals
of generally one year to the best-be-
haved royal princess of Europe, is often
talked about, and yet very little is
known as to what it really is. 1t has
been variously described as an order,
a ribbon and brcvet, but it is virtual
lv none of these; and, as it is said that
the pope proposes to confer the Rose"
next year on Archduchess Margaret
Elizabeth, niece of the emperor OF
Austria and wife of Prince Louis AL
bert of Wurtemberg, it will be of inter
est to many people to know what the
gift really is.
1t is made in jewelers. shop which
has stood for more than three hundred
wears in the shadow of the dome of st.
Peters. The stem of the flower is of
massive gold and is forty inches in
height. The chalice of the flower is Of
delicate mosaic, on which are chased
the name of the pontiff, the date of the
presentation and the titles of the re-
cipicnt The leaves of the rose are
powdered with diamond dust, to repre-
sent the morning dew, and the whole
is inclosed in a magnificent white satin
case, adorned with silver rosebuds.
The total expenses which the pres
entation entails are calculated at not
less than ten thousand dollars.
The gift must be carried to its desti-
nation by two ambassadors selected
from the Roman nobility, and car
riage, garlanded with white roses,
awaits the ENJOYS at the station of ar
rival. The elder of the ENJOYS must
bring the white case into the palace
on his head, and deposit it IN the room
appointed on table covered with
linen cloth.
After solemn mass in the chapel, the
queen or princess to be honored by the
gift takes her place under dais in the
state apartment, with bishop at her
side. After the younger envoy has
read aloud letter from the pope, his
colleague waves the rose aloft three
times and hands it to the bishop
The queen falls upon her knees before
the prelate, he places the emblem over
her heart, the choristers intone the
"Te Deuna," and the ceremony is over.
The ambassadors generally carry
back to the vatican an autograph let
ter of the favored queen or princess,
and her portrait, set in a rich golden
frame embossed with roses.
The last recipient of the rose was the
queen of Portugal. Golden Days.

ALUCKY GAME OF CHESS.

Intentionally has often resulted in diff
ferences between rulers that have led
to the overthrow of kingdoms A mere
act of ordinary kindness has been
known to change what appeared to be
the destiny of a man from wretched
and ignominious death to life with OPP
portunity to make life glorious, and all
within the short space of an hour. The
story is that of the Moorish Prince,
Abul Hejex, who was thrown into pris-
on for sedition by his brother Muham-
med, King of Granada. There he re-
NAMED for several years, until the
king. fearing he might escape, place
himself at the head of q fresh revolt
and seize the crown, ordered one OF his
lDashas to see to his immediate execu-
ton. Abul Ilejex was playing at chess
when the Pasha came and babe him
prepare for death. The prince asked
for two hours respite, which was re-
fused. After earnest entreaty he OBJ
tanned permission to finish his game.
He was in no hurry about the moves,
we are told. and well for him that he
was not, for before an hour had elapsed
messenger brought the news that
Muhammed had been struck dead by
apoplexy, and Abul was forthwith pro-
claimed King of Granada.
It was indeed small favor for the
Pasha to grant, but it altered the whole
current of the kings career, and it is
TO be hoped that when from prisoner
The latter became ruler be possessed
that quality which kings are said not
to have, that of gratitude to his unwit-
ting preserver. If the Pasha was not
suitably rewarded then truly was kbul
Hejex an ungrateful wretch. -Harper'S
