Among flowers the lily seems to be
the most severe test of woman's lowell
ness. In reality. it is too stiff, too un-
yielding, to be quite suitable for tuck
ing into the belt or for wearing in the
corsage But the form usually chosen
for the lily as personal decoration is
to be seen in pictures, where fair young
persons hold sprays of them. The ac-
l;nowledged beauty and the actress are
peculiarly prone to this bit of posing.
And the effect is usually unsatisfying.
Possibly the cause lies in the formality
Of this flower; in the fact that it is not
adaptable, and is stiff and uncompro-
missing. But there is, perhaps, deeper
reason. The lily has come to symbolic
for us the spiritual, and though this is
but a convention, it yet influences us.
as if it were really belief. From this
arises the effect of unsuitability felt
when the stately white sprays are used
for personal adornment. 1t seems too
frivolous a treatment of them, and,
moreover, few are the faces in which
spirituality is so predominant that the
lily seems to belong to them.-Chicago

A fabric resembling rich ribbed ori-

a good dress now and then, consider
that it is wiser to have handsome one

that object nothing can surpass it, as
it will stand legitimate wear for long
time, and youthful variety OF this

of color in rose, green, blue, plum and

black, is appropriate for making sleeves
and vests when satin or silk are not de-
sirable, the elasticity of the stuff max

"When Mount Tabor. N. j., was first
taken possession of by the Newark con-
ference of the Methodist Episcopal
church." said a clergyman of that de-
nomination recently, 1--WE had little
money with which to clear up the
grounds and erect the first buildings
necessary. After putting up sort of
open air pavilion in which the preach
ing services could be held, we began to
cast around for some building where
transient guests might be accommo-
dated.
"The structure resulting from this
necessity was a long frame building,
which was christened the Tabor
house. In constructing the house on
as economical basis as possible, the
partitions were not run all the way up

ceiled.

locomotives Have to Be Trained.

vACCO"OtlS00 hAVO 70 DC AK8100Qs
1t may not be generally known that
locomotives intended for express trains
require as much training, in their way,
for fast running as do race horses.
When an engine intended for express
purposes is taken out of the shops to
he placed on the line, instead of putting
it to the work it is intended for at once,
it is run for two or three weeks on some
one of the local branches. in order to
train it, so to speak, for fast running.
by this means all the various bearings
and delicate machinery connected with
running gear become settled to their
work; for, should anything about the
new machine not work harmoniously,
there is ample time to adjust the de-
feet. Usually the new engine proves
troublesome on account Of it's propen-
sity to make fast time, and at almost
every station the train is found to be a
little ahead of schedule time and must
wait for from ten seconds to minute.
