All About the PetticOat.

The petticoat is quite as important a
part of ones costume as the gown it.
self, for upon it depends "the hang" of
the outside skirt Even the flannel
petticoat, which in the opinion of so
many people needs be but two yards of
material scanned together, must be
carefully gored. The best flannel skirt
is two and half yards wide, gored and
made with a muslin yoke fitted to the
figure. Colored f1annels are used much
more than white. For travelling black
is also used. These flannel petticoats
are quite short, ending just below the
knee with founce embroidered in
scallops. Laces gathered behind the
scallops, and feather stitching heads
the ruffles. Cambria skirts are once
more popular, probably because they
are the best that can be worn under
the light weight dresses which fashion
advocates. Indeed, to so great an ex-
IRENE is the idea carried, that null pet
tlcoats are worn under the thinnest of
summer gowns. They are made UNI
brella shaped, fitted with darts over
the hips, and are fully as long as the
gown itself. Lace is considered the
prettiest trimming, but embroidery an
pears quite as often, more especially on
the cambria spirits. Silk petticoats are
numerous, a fact due undoubtedly to
the number of remarkably cheap rem
nants of silk to be had. Any color is
considered in good taste, although black
for street wear is the greatest favorite.

with the back still ATRIAL, and no max
ing over possible. It is entirely right
to wear a perfectly plain skirt, but
trimming is usual, either line or so of
braiding, some applique design or an
effect of paneling or frills. Many
skirts are actually cut into many parts.
If you have lots of dresses it is we'll to
have one or two with skirts much elab-
orated-you can hardly elaborate them
too much. But if you have only few
dresses, stick to entirely plain skirts.
except where making over emergencies
find you glad to take advantage of the
cut-up styles. If you have a lovely old
lace shawl, make it an overskirt to one
of your party dresses, and if it is an
old party dress made over with such an
accessory it will be far more satisfac-
tory than the most elaborate new af-
fair. Women often make a mistake in
feeling that they must have all new
stuff for some cherished accessory. On
the contrary it is on the make-over, if
it can be used to advantage, that you
should use the exquisite windfall of
lace or trimming.

New Danger Signal.

French newspapers are suggesting a
new system for the prevention of ma
rine accidents which proposes to place
strongly smelling chemicals in floating
receptacles to be attached to the exist
ing light buoys and bell buoys. Cliffs
and dangerous shoals are very often
hidden by thick fog, which does not
allow light to penetrate nor sound to
be heard until too late, while the
strong smell of some chemical sub
stances would be carried far away,
and would indicate to the seafarer with
keen olfactory sense at great distance
that he is nearing a dangerous coast.

of much speculation as to which varie-

production. This is difficult question
to properly adjust to the satisfaction
Of the speciality breeders, but from
conservative standpoint it is generally
considered that the whites have slight
ly the advantage over the others. Phe-
nomenal individual egg records have
been made by most all the varieties,
but the above opinion is advanced from
the general results obtained from vari-
Gus sources. There are sub-varieties
in Brown and White Leghorns-the
Rose-comb Brown and the Rose-comb

the most distinguished element in Eu-
ropean politics, on account of the up
rising of the inhabitants, aided by
Greece, against the rule of the "un-
speakable Turk" is one Of the largest
islands of the Mediterranean sea and
the most southerly portion of Europe.
IT is 100 miles in length and varies In
width from ten to thirty-flve miles,
and in point of area Is about two-thirds
rs large as the state of Washington.
The coast line, especially on the north
and west, is very irregular and forms
number of good harbors. The surface
of the island is very mountainous, but
there are numerous plains and valleys
that are we'll watered and very fertile.
The population numbers about 200, 900,
of whom four-fifths are adherents OF
the Greek church and one-fifth Ma
hometans. Nearly all are of Greek, or
native Cretan, descent, and the Greek
language only is spoken throughout
the island, even by the Mahometans.
It seems natural enough, therefore,
that the people, or very large major
ity of them at least, should find Turk
ish rule distasteful i'm the extreme and
desire to ally themselves with Greece.
For more than four centuries after the
ACKNOWLEDGMENT of the Greek empire,
following the capture OF Constantinople
by the Latins in 1904. Crete was subject
to the government Of the Venetian re-
public. in 1869. however, Gambia, then
the capital of the island, surrendered
to the Turks after having sustained a
siege of twenty years, the longest Oh
record, and the whole island became
prey to Turkish misrule and SO remain
ed until the outbreak of the Greek rev.
olution in 1921. After nine years of

surgents to dislodge the Mahometan
population from the fortified cities,

Egypt, from whom it was again taken
by the Turks in 1910, and they have re-
manned in control ever since, though
not without opposition, there having
been one revolt in 1859, which was
quickly suppressed, and another in 1856
which was more formidable and which
resulted il, the concession of some addi-
tional privileges to the Christian in
habitants which are quite unusual in
Turkish provinces.
If permitted to work out their own
salvation the hardy and liberty loving
Cretans would undoubtedly soon
achieve their independence of Turkish
domination, but the interference Of the
Christian ~ "powers." ostensibly to
prevent q general European war, seems
likely to again doom them to defeat.
