THE r1REIV3T.

On the whole the Merchants Carni-
val" was shining success. Some Of
the merchants didn't have as much
carnival as they wanted and some
didn't have any. But some had all they
could attend to and went home last
night as tired and as happy as
the head man of the village. AS
for our visitors, they seemed to
be having a thoroughly good time.
They saw New Haven at it's prettiest
and were treated as prettily as posi-
BILE. Those who bought got good bar
gains and those who didn't had day
Of pleasant excitement.
Everybody concerned in the starting
and carrying on of the affair Is entitled
to an approving pat on the back and
the committees are entitled to a vote of
thanks in addition. And if the people
of New Haven do the right thing they
will get together and express their ap-
probation Of the fine and cheering sight
furnished them by their visitors who
wore dresses and other raiment con-
gruous Herewith. If there has ever
been in New Haven a sidewalk process
sion of more hearty, wholesome healthy
and happy young and middle-aged wo-
men we don't know when. And as for
their clothes, if the Queen of Sheba
when she went to see Solomon had on
as good and well-f1tting clothes as the
queens who came to see New Haven
yesterday she must have made a very
pleasing impression on the wise man.
1t is probable that yesterdays success
will lead to other "carnivals" here at
proper intervals. The first was certain
ly good one for a starter.

ionable costume than one of this as
sertive hue, If it should be copy of
the dress sketched herewith, it would
have novelty as another recommended
ton. This dress was scarlet cashmere,
skirt and jacket fronts trimmed with a
trellis-like pattern OF bias folds, the
edging being pleated black chiffon,
Its sleeveless vest was finely pleated
with China silk and had a high white
stock collar edged with very narrow
pleating of the silk. The belt was
black faille, and the sleeves had chiffon
ruffies at the wrists.
AS brilliant colorings are much in
vogue, women who do not own dozen
dresses want to respond to this fashion
In some way but there is a more SER
viceable method for them than an en-
/ tire costume of bright stuffs. This lies
In the current fancy for a dash of I'M

adroitly, or the result is an effect of
having fallen short of material to
match, and being driven to finish up

ticed. This trick can be done in many
ways, and one instructive example
should suffice. 1t was a white satin
under black net, the latter heavily en-
broidered in jetted lilac orchids. This
had a pair Of Jet butterflies poised on
the shoulders for Sleeves and under
the butterflies was a narrow fold of
bright green velvet. No where else did
green show in the gown, except perhaps
suggestion in the embroidery of the
net and on the sleeves, and the green
was not displayed conspicuously, yet
that touch gave character to the whole.
RMS, OF course, was an expensive gown,
but the trick can be done cheaply, and
costly dresses are Just the ones to serve
as models for our inexpensive copying.

We recommend that the members Of

Letters were recently sent out from
Stanford university to seven hundred
girls attending public schools asking
cases the answers showed that the
person of whom you have heard or
read would you most like to resemble,
and why?" In a remarkable number Of
cases the answered showed that the
writers much preferred to follow in the
footsteps of famous men rather than of
famous women. One thirteen year old
girl wrote: Il believe l should rather
resemble man than a woman, because
the deeds of women, although some
times great, self-sacrifcing and brave,
sink into insignifcance when compared
with the valorous deeds of men,"

The fastest boat in the world is lit
tie English craft only a. hundred feet
long. She is propelled by steam tur-
bine, and according to reports just
published of an official test made on
April 10, has made speed of 1924 knots,
nearly thirty-eight land miles, an hour.
1T is to be noted that in previous trials
the same craft had made 30 and 81
knots an hour. The latest account
seems to be well authenticated, and the
speed obtained is made doubly remark
able by the smallness of the vessel. The
only results to be compared with hers
have heretofore been obtained with
hulls three or four times as large.

the charms of stage life may find
something interesting in the following

leading people in road companies get
about $50 week or less. Three fifths
of the profession as whole, including
chorus girls, ballet and supernumer-

spread over the whole twelve months Of
