worthy interview with the pope. In
this Pope Leo spoke in the most CRATE
full way of the election of Father Ma
lone as regent of the New York uni

to America. He expressed regret
that certain newspapers and pub
lie men in America had objected
to his sending delegate to Washing
ton or sending out an encyclical as
tending to NEEDLE with the affairs of
foreign government, or with instr
buttons with which he had no sympa-
thy.
This is an error" said the pope.

ernments except to admonish my
people to obey the civil law and to
conform to the authority of the land
in which they dwell. | sent legate
to America in order that | might be
better informed as to the character of
American institutions and the pc.

cile any conflict, if there should be
any, between the government of my
church and the government of the
land. | consider America essen
TALLY a Christian country. Re.
ligiOn is free. The government
does not aid nor does it oppose the

skirt from the highways. II has al
ways been said that Worth invented
this reform for no greater purpose
than to show the Empress Eugenie's
exquisite Spanish feet
The big sleeves which are such a

were ordered for only four costumes;

The great Worth was an English
boy, born at Bourne, in Lincolnshire,
in 1925. He was apprenticed to a
printer, but gave up typesetting in a
few months and went to London,
where he found work in a. dry
goods store. Under the spell of
beautiful materials his aesthetic sense
awoke and he began to dream of
future as couturier, and naturally
longed to see what he could do in
Paris, then, as now, fashions chosen
home. He began to study French
and when only 81 ventured to Paris,
where he soon found work in big
dry goods house. His authority in
questions of taste was at once recog-
nized. He became a partner in the
firm and gradually rose until in 1870.
he founded the present great house of
Worth. To-day the establishment
employs 1000 persons and Worth has
made gowns for every woman on a
European throne, with the single en-
ception of the greatest one-the queen
Of England.
1t seems to be conceded that genius
will triumph over the most common
place circumstances, but Worth's
career was wonderfully aided by the
exquisite beauty of the Empress
Eugene. She was one of his first
customers, for his independent ven
ture into fashions kingdom
was made when the second en-
pire was at the height of
its brilliancy. Having won the pa
tronage of the empress, Worth's
future was assured. Every woman in
Europe who could afford it went to
him for her frocks and this supremacy
he has maintained up to this time
and even now his house is likely to
maintain its influential position since
his two sons have long been as
ISOLATED with him in the management
of the great business. The younger
son, John Worth, is an artist like his
father, CASTOR Worth is the business
manager.
