Some day shall be dead
Cndcr the grass and close to my head
A stone with name and date of my death
May Withstand old Times corroding breath,
But shall be nothing but dust.
Some day | shall be dead
Lie like a stone with the life all fed
|, in whose veins health's rich red blood
Rushes and leaps like an unchecked flood;
To think of me lying there deadl
Some day shall be dead,
And some fair woman my grandson has wed
VIII say, as she holds up jewel or lace
To the wondering eyes in her baby's face,
"Great-grandmothe once wore this"
Some day | shall be dead
The last song sung and the last prayer said,
The laughter hushed and the tears all dried,
And |, whatever of woe may betide,
shall be safe and dead.

Although the fashion of allowing the
decolletage to show the top Of the arm is
SO prevalent, 1t is not compulsory many
gowns being cut high over the shoulders
in the long established way. In high bod
ices also the sleeve puff is often free from
the shoulder seam, thus leaving the arm
at liberty, as it cannot be when the top of
the sleeve is closely fitted. The sloping
shoulder effect is very feminine, but re-
markably inconvenient.

and they, on no account, have IL dot in the
region OF the eyes. They eunuingIy sew
together plain netting and dotted material
to have the eyes free. No oculist's advice
is in this idea, but merely that Of a harmon

The language of the veil of SO requires
little Interpretation. For the theater, for
summer dancing, or for pcuic. the veil is
fastened on in the thick folds that permit
coquettish drawings across the :ace. The
eyes now show, now they are veiled,
and it is the curve OF the cheek that is
prominent; again it is the tlimpIe OF the
chin- And the passer-by says: That is
pretty woman, a gay woman, stylish
woman, and a fashionable ouel''
The mourning, the staid, the demure
veil, is pinned straight across the hat
brim and drawn to the knot at the hack OF
the head and tied there, the new feature
being the way the trimming upon the hat
brim is placed over the veil. II there is
jeweled bug, he holds the veil upon his
antenuae, and if flowers are there the
veil falls beneath them. Only the very
| stupid would now tie on veil over the
! gaudy brim trimmings of the season.
| But to know all the moods and lenses of
| the veil, you must study it carefully, OBJ
serve how it appears upon the imported
millinery, and. finally, take a few lessons
| from some one who has been abroad to
learn the newest in this very becoming and
coquettish article of dress.

Such was the remark OF a Frenchman
who studies millinery And the partic-
uiar person he had in mind as he spoke
was a tall, thin-featured woman, OF good
figure and fair walk, but of plain coun-
tenance. At least, so you would have
judged her. But she looked really charm
ing. She wore a voluminous veil, and it

But the yeiil This was as filmy as a
bridal veil, and almost as broad. 1t was
gathered in great buuch at the side
of the hat, and was then drawn across
the face with the folds arranged in the
most becon Eg manner. Across the fore
it was plain, while few curves showed
across the middle of the face, but under
the chin came the fulness. Probably that
woman had a thin, disagreeabe neck,
and the French veil saved her appearance
and made her chic. The pin with which
the flowing ends were fastened after the
veil crossed the face was one OF the mystic
and beautiful concbshelIs showing now a
pink face and now broad sunset hue.

the prettiness OF eyes and mouth, iu spite
of that persistency with which the nose will
take the naughty upward curve.

This year it takes the form of a very

The banged girl is Transformed.

The banged girl is trauSIorneu
All the girls are wearing those cunning
little side combs which hold in place the
unruly taugles of their fluffy front locks.
Above the combs the hair lies sleek aud
smooth as a demure Madonna's; below
their restraint the fuzzy ends stick out as
if in rebellion at their tutelage. And the
girl will look at you with big, wise eyes
and say, with that little Mark Twain
drawl they all affect nowadays: 1T takes
so long for it to grow out again."
Even so. The Madonna can become the
banged girl in an hour, but to become a
Madonna again is a task of months. You
become whole-haired again "while you
wait" so to speak. Wherefore l should
counsel deliberation and much weighing
OF the pros and cons before becoming a
banged girl again, next style.
Mean while, though, there are the combs.
The little side combs are meant to be
but temporary, and it may not be in the
best of taste to decorate them, but have
seen them blazing with gems. A better
place for these is the big back comb, which
may be shell, with gold panels, or all
