outer garments. To begin with the
undervest, one may find on it two
Or three yards frilled at the neck and
around the sleeves. The corsets
have lace trimming more or less
elaborate and fine. The corset cover
requires more, say from two to five
yards, according to its quality. The
drawers have from one to ten yards
Of lace, and this from one to four
Inches wide The underskirt, if Of
flannel, has a row of silk or wooden
lace and the white skirt may take
up twenty yards of lace and yet
not look overturned. Many of
them have as many as fifty yards
gathered in full ruffles, some outside
and some inside of the hem. The
ruffles are set so that each falls over
the other half the width of the lace.
The effect is charmingly light and
pretty.
I noticed some skirts Of linen lawn
with six ruff1es Of valenciennes lace
zach an inch narrower than the
other, and the narrower ones were
set at the bottom and the wider
snes above so that all the edges were
Even. 1t looked lovely and like as
many different skirts. Then there
are lawn dressing sacks and neg
Iigees and combing jackets, every
one of them covered with lace and
trimmed with-ribbons, without which
lace looses half of it's effect. The
tea Jackets are also richly earniShe6
with lace. The Valenciennes is rather
more in favor now than any other
kind for trimming, both white and
butter colored, but thread and white
valenciennes, also point de Paris, are
all worn. 1t is said that there will
be a revival of cluny for this winter.
Up to this season cluny could not
be initiated by machine we'll enough
to make it valuable as a trimming,
but now it is closely reproduced. 1t
is especially pretty for insertions,
though for fine batfste it is too
heavy, and therefore it will find its
best usefulness in trimming heavy
goods.
The night dresses and lounging
robes are simply smothered with
quantities of lace. The whole fronts
and yokes are entirely covered with
jabots and cascades, with ribbon
bows set here and there, or quite as
often great lunches Of loops Of mar
row baby ribbon in delicate shades.
The night robes are of batiste and
the Longing gowns Of soft India

very cheaply, and they are made SO
well and designed SO tastefully that
they are quite handsome enough for
tea gowns, with the sole exception
that they are too narrow in the
skirt. One clever lady bought one
of these lounging robes, and matched
the lace on it, and with yard of
silk cut into two cores, which she
set in at the sides and covered with
cascades of the lace, she had one of
the most elegant tea gowns one could
imagine, and it cost less than half
of what she would have had to paw
for a tea gown.
Night dresses are trimmed much
or little, according to the taste and
purse of the owner For ordinary
use there are pretty night dresses
trimmed with ruff1es and insertions
OF embroidery, white, dark blue and
dark red. Those with colored en-
broidery are very pretty, and en-
broidery is more durable than lace,
but no cheaper, excepting that one
uses more lace than embroidery. The
wide sailor collar and large sleeves
are worn in night clothes-and most
uncomfortable they are. 1 saw one
novelty, and that was a fancy batiste
night gown, where the collar was
made with an insertion along the
edge with the holes large enough to
admit OF threading q pink silk shoe
string along in trou trou fashion to
eyelet holes at the neck of the gown.
This collar could then be easily re-
moved and replaced. It is difficult
to understand why all this trouble
should be taken simply to show that
one has a saucy sailor collar to
ones "nightie.''

known outside their magic circles
pecially as the results are particularly
delicious.
They take a sheet of heavy glazed
writing paper and turn up the four
edges to a depth of about three-fourths
of an inch. Into this box they pour
a cupful of white sugar and very lit
tie water. and set it on top of the
stove. One would think the paper
would burn but it does not. The sugar
boils up charmingly and looks temp
ing enough in its dainty receptacle.
When it is nearly done, drop or two
of fiavoring is added, or just before
taking from the fire some nut meats
are strewn over it's surface. 1t is then
taken off the stove and set to float in
it's paper box in a bowl or basin of
cold water. When cold it should be
brittle and then the paper can be
peeled off and dainty square of tooth
some candy is the reward.
1t is great fun to make and will sur
prise your friends if they chance to
see it boiling in it's paper box.

The Hardy School of Duluth opens
for its ninth year on Sept. 10 under
new management, Miss Laura A
Jones and Miss Louise Mitchell being
principals. An unusual number of new
teachers, graduates of Eastern col
leges, have been secured for the aca-
demic department. The school has also
been affiliated with the University of
Chicago, thus securing the personal in
terest OF the eminent instructors of
that institution. The principals have
made new departure, in adding to
their corps an instructor of vocal
music, Miss Blanche Marot, a pupil
Of Karl Alves, of New York city.
With such an attractive home, and
with so large number of experienced
coilege-bred teachers, the Hardy
school offers unique advantages to the
girls of the Northwest for instruction
and culture.

FASHIONABLE SKIRTS.
How to Cut Skirt Liaings-To
Avoid Pucl>ered Seams.

In order that skirt may fit we'll, the
lining must be cut exactly like the out
side, whether the breadths be wide or
narrow, many or few. If the lining
material is not wide enough, it may be,
neatly pieced. When the dress goods
are very thin. and especially for silk
and satin, narrow strip of paper
should be basted in with the seams to
prevent them from fulling when they
are stitched. After the stitching the
paper must be removed. For wooden
material, if it is decidedly bias at the
seams, a straight strip of muslin
should be used instead of paper and al

To understand the relation Ct Mussul-
man rule to religious and intellectual
freedom we must note the influence of
the conquest of Persia Oh the Arab
mind. When the invaders took the cap
ital city of Khosru, they did not know
the value Of booty. Some offered to OK
change gold for silver and others mis-
took camphor for sulphur. They came
like swarms of half starved locusts to
devour the land. They wero banditti of
the desert, with no culture but the in
SEPARATION of the clans. The only idea of
government in these tribes was the
leadership of age and valor, as repre-
scented i'll the sheik, with natural mix
ture of hereditary respect. On the death
of Mohammed they broke into rebellion
Islam really came on the world like a
fierce descent of desert clans on their foes.
Alohammed's ideal of government
was just to send his governors through
Arabia to establish Islam and then to
collect tribute from the poor i'll camels
and sheep; also rs plumber 10 meet the
expense of his campaign. Under these
circumstances it was an absolute neces-
sity for the founders of the Mussulman
empire i'll the east to adopt in the main
tho financial and administrative expert
ence of their more cultured subjects
Arabic names, customs, language, rites,
penetrated the empire, but under their
external forms appeared the native
ideas and methods. Persians were the
leaders and shapers of Islamic culture
The simple Arabs learned of these
larger brains and more sensuous mag
lnations, music, architecture, sculpture,
philosophy, vino and fine apparel. Per-
slams were the real founders and teach
ers of the great academic clubs and
schools. = Johnson's Oriental Reli-

Lancashire, used actually to go fishing
on Sunday 1t seems Incredible, but
they did. a clergyman of the town used
