New handkerchief.

From Harpers Bazaar.
Hemstitching r.igns in pocket handker-
chiefdom. This season is responsible for 1t,
and 1t proves that fashion Is Tot so black
as she is painted, or shs would not now
and then see fit to be sensible. This does
not mean tnat embroidery is not just as
popular as ever, but it does mean that the
scalloped and pointed edges, SO difficult to
launder and so invariably frayed and fringy
after a few .'doings-up." are no longer in
vogue. All this years handkerchiefs have
a hemstitched edge. no matter how mar
row that edge may be, and no matter how
elaborate may be the inner border Of en-
broidery. This holds good even Of the
finest importations. costing s25 and $50
apiece. 1T is yet too soon.' says the
dealer. ito predict with any certainty
what the coming handkerchief will be, but
indications are that hemstitching has come
to stay" The likeliest innovation Is that
the embroidery will extend to the hem,
which will be a change and yet not infringe
Upon hemstitching rights. The fashion is
to be welcomed by all, for IL the costly
linen article cuts sorry figure with its
ragged scalloped edges. what can be said
OF the -cheap cotton limitations In the

From the Charleston News and Courier
When thirty years of age woman is most
fascinating. All the women famous for
power over the hearts of men. from Cleo
patra to Helen down, were nearer forty
than twenty when at the zenith of their
power.
At a literary salon in Paris Balzac was
once asked by a pretty little miss Of seven
teen why ii was he liked women she would
call passees. TWhy, monsieur. even when
they are as old as forty you seem to enjoy
their society" Balzac looked at her earn
estly for a second and then laughed heart
lily. He bent over to explain matters and
remarked in a serious voice. as though
weighing every word he said: Perhaps the
secret lies in the simple fact that the wo-
nan of twenty must be pleased, while the
woman OF forty tries to please and the
older woman's power consists not. as has
been so often said, in understanding and
making the most of her own charms. but
in comprehending and with happy tact call
ing out and making the mos: OF the good
qualities If the man whose faver she
seeks
There is no doubt that a man always ad-
mires clever woman yet he enjoys him
self better with a woman who makes him
feel that he is clever. OF course, all the
men like being entertained for a while BY
a well-informed woman, but man is essen
TALLY vain, and he enjoys much better the
happy tact which makes him believe that
he is entertaining the well-informed wo-
man.
The woman q man likes best is not al
ways the smartest or most brilliant. No,
indeed. A pair Of brown, sympathetic eyes,
sweet voice, will do away with all the
logic and philosophy a mans brain has
ever entertained. OF course the woman
must have the happy knack of discovering
what subject the man talks about best.
Then she listen uuipfly N In
terested manner. Perhaps il would be a
good suggestion for her to draw him out
with happy queries until he is astonished
at his own brilliancy.

The Mind n. a Di.ea.e Producer

DIR. Herbert Coryn IN the National Review.
We know that congested liver produces
gloom. perhaps leading to suicide. Anoth.
er kind of gloom is perhaps due to a con-
gested spleen. A disorderly heart produces
apprehension Of coming danger. Certain
intestinal conditions produce fear. Morbid
conditions of other organs mar the sense
of strength and manhood or womanliness
We know also few converse truths: That
gloom or despair may induce jaundice
that good news will make the heart beat
vigorously; that cheerfulness will calm and
regulate its beat: that fear and anxiety
may paralyze digestion.

Consuelo's Handsome Dinner Dress.

COnsueIO's Handsome Dinner Dress.
From the ST. James Gazette.
A handsome dinner dress made in Paris
for the Duchess of Marlborough is of tur-
quoise blue velvet On the trains are three
fiounces OF lace set little apart from each
other The skirt Is embroidered at the
hem with jet and turquoises The bodice
Is OF turquoise velvet and lace and there
is bunch of black feathers on the shoul-
der The duchess we'll understands the
value of ncte of black. and is rather
partial to large, picturesque black hats. A
pretty orchid dinner dress is of palest
heliotrope crepe. with lovely fiounce of
d d'Alencon lace in front, which outlines an
apron and meets at the back of the waist
behind, whence it falls in dainty cas-
cades on either side OF the train Trails of
orchids start from the waist and fall over
the train behind. The soft folded bodice
Of the crepe crosses over a dainty chem
isette of tucked white silk and insertion.
and another trail of cattleyas crosses the
bodice. The sleeves are short and fiat and
finished with glstening silver fringe that
falls over fril of lace. The small white
gauze fan worn with it Is spangled with
heliotrope and silver sequins, and the
long gloves are of the palest heliotrope
suede,

Who i?

These are the days when voters are
receiving numerous marked copies of
various newspapers in the interests of
this candidate or that. The local post
Office has been flooded with copies of the
Barre Times, Bradford Opinion and st.
Johnsbury News the past week, con-
tanning articles favorable to Judge Read
for Congress. Ordinarily this is per-
fectly Legitimate method of conducting a
campaign. We are sorry we cannot say
this of the action of the Barre Times,
which clipped the letter that appeared in
our last issue in favor of Judge Read,
placed over it heading, "Randolph
Wants Change" and sent it back here
to be re-read, with the evident purpose
of making it appear that Randolph was
Read stronghold. Neither the attitude
of this paper nor letter in Mr.. Grout's 5
favor that appeared in our last issue
were referred to. The letter quoted by
the Times was contributed by party
living in Mr.. Reads own county who
has established literary bureau in his
interests and is sending communications
to various state papers. If Randolph
wants a change there is certainly no evil
dence of it on the surface. There is not
u particle of doubt that this town is solid
for Grout.-Randolph Herald and News

The Red Cross Society.

PHILADELPHIA, June 3.--EX Presi-
dent Cleveland has written II letter to
the Secretary of the committee of the
Red Cross bureau appointed to collect
funds for the relief of the soldiers in
the war Among other things the let
ter says the war is national a1lliction
even when it is best justified and most
clearly unavoidable. Whatever proof
it furnishes of mans advance in civiliza-
ton and in the growth of human kim
ship is apt to be found in the efforts to
which it gives rise. For the allcviation
of the honors of battle and the relief
and comfort of those who must suffer
and die, the society of the Red Cross
deserves the hearty cooperation and aid
of all good citizens.

prayer offered by the Rev. Etlie X. M.
,Joues, after which there was a pleasing
selection rendered by the quartetle COM

teraining selections during the evening.
State Councillor, Frank S. Williams

manner telling of the benefit of the or

present.
The National Organizer Thomas Gill
more was then introduced and in a most
patriotic and eloquent discourse held his
listeners bound to his remarks until the
the close. He gave glowing tribute
to that grand old hero of our native
state Ethan Allen and to the famous
Gen. Stark. The trend of his remarks
was to eulogize the liberty and freedom
which marks the progress of America,
the best country the sun ever shown
upon, and its flag, the best that ever
waved between heaven and earth. The
purpose of this organization is to keep
the watch-lircs of liberty burning and
to make patriots in America.
Mr.. Gilmore was four years in de-
fence of the flag as a debt of gratitude
tothe government that he was permitted
to be n part of,
In speaking of the prosperity OF
Barre, he said that this city seemed &c
be so hemmed in by granite hills that
the hard times cannot get here.

who have come to us from the historic
