ing of the season. The score was II to f.
In the first inning Corby and Barghausen
won two goals on free throws. shutting out
the Infantry team. In the second inning
the Infantry team scored four goals, to the
Century's one. The Centurys made their

AMONG THE WHISPERS.

Chicago Duplicate Defeated North
Shore.
The fifth match Of the A. W. L. challenge
trophy va, played at the Hotel Victoria,
Chicago. Saturday, between the North
Shore Club challengers and the Chicago
Duplicate Club holders. North Shore won
by seven tricks. the score being: North
Shore. Is; Chicago Duplicate, IL. North
Shore was represented by Capt. Willard
Decelle, Bromell and SimoEs. Chicago Du-
plicate by Montgomery, Capt. Cheeseman,
Weston and Kent.
The trophy in the west seems to be as
tickle as it was east, and no club seems to
be able to hold it long enough to appreciate
its inherent beauty, as well as all it rep
resents. John T. Mitchell claimed a short
time since that Chicago could furnish as
many frst-class players as any city in
the world. and, judging by the number of
clubs that are able to send strong teams
to compete for national honors, whist play
ers will have to concede Chicagos claim.
This match furnished some new names
for championship honors and the PLAYERS
east Will welcome The young giants who
nave shown up so well against the doughty
warriors, who have been victorious in many
hard-fought contests. The game was
marked throughout by close, brilliant play,
and the smallness of the score shows how
1eW changes there were in the forty-eight
boards.

MANAGING SERVANTS

Teash Them Self-Uespeet and AlWays
 Keep Your own.
 The best rule for managing servants, in the opinion of a writer in the Phila- ,delphia Ledger, is two-fold one, sim ple in idea, complex enough, but still possible to practice; Teach your serv- ant self-respect and keep your own.
 For instance. 8 pleasant room to sleep in, nice kitchen. with plenty of sers- iceable cooking utensils, good brooins. ample towels and dusters, fixed duties and regular hours; these give and keep up self-respect in willing handmaid, be she cook or waitress. She learns to call your house her home, truly, and to take pride in her work.
 On your side an even temper. p1eaa- ant but firm oversight of necessary matters, . systematic plan of house- keeping-all these keep up the mistress' self-respect in dealing with her h0use- hold staff. As soon as you feel that you have been careless, or that you have lost your temper in 8 trying moments you realize that false position ex- ists that endangers your self-respect- ing relation with your maid, just as she feels, when her room is wretched. her tools out of order, her hours of work irregular and her training neglected, that her standard is confused and d. graded.
 The ideal mistress Is always self respecting, and, having provided the essentials of self-respecting service. may reasonably expect the ideal maid to live up to the opportunity. Ideals are perhaps never fully realized, but this especial ideal must be kept in view if improvement. however gradual, in household service Is desired. It is easy to remember; try it. and see if it doea not oil the wheels of your homo ma chinery.

FIRST SILVER WEDDING.

q Oustom That Dates Rack to the
 Reign of Hugues Capet.
 The fashion of silver weddings dates back to the reign of IIugues Capet, king of France in os7. says Vogue.
 Once, as 1Iugues was arranging his uncle's affairs. he found on one of the estates servant who had grown gray in the service of his relative. He had been such 8 friend of his masters that he was almost looked upon as one of the family.
 On the farm with this old man waa also serving woman who was as old as he. and also un14ssrsied. and who had been the most devoted ana hard work ing of the women servants of the i-..-v's sanelee. When the king heard these praises of the two, hs ordered them to be brought before hin. and said 10 the woman:
 "Your servics is great, greater than this mans, whose services were great enough, for the woman always finds work and obedience harder than a man, and therefore will give you . reward, At your age know of none better than . dowry and husband. The dowry Is here-this farm from this time forth belongs to you. If this man who has worked with you five and twenty years is willing to marry you. then the hua- band is ready"
 "Your majesty. stutteFed the old peasant. confusedIy. 'show is it possible that we should marry. having already silver hairsf"
 'Then 1t shall be G1lver wedding" 1" answered the king, land here give you . wedding ring" drawing a costly ring from his finger and placing the hands of the thankful old people to- gether.
 This soon became known all over France, and raised such enthusiasm that it became fashion after 25 years marriage to celebrste silver wedding.

LORRAINE RIBBON WORK. DaAev Ter This Sort ef Tghing ls eh
 the IncreaSe.

UOAov for Thls Sort of Thi19 1s oA the IAcrease.
 Though the ribbon work known as Lorraine work" has been in fashion for some time the craze for it seems to
 be on the increase. It is now used for gowns as well as for small fancy arti- cles. as sachets, note books, cushions or screens. One of Chicago's leading dressmakers has prepared white satin skirt embroidered up each seam with . suitable design. which is to be worn at |a hall near at hand. The effect of the embroidery is much improved by the addition of spangles and sequins. The
 bodice is embroidered to correspond.
 Such work must be done most care fully. or the beauty of the whole dress would be spoiled. The method of work ing is really very simple, as ench petal and leafis formed by the ribbon, which is threaded iNto the needle and passed through the material and only occa-
 sionalIy stitch or two needs to be added in fine sewing silk. Small French knots are introduced as centers to small flowers, and raised flowers are worked by just gathering small DOT ton of the ribbon into shape before placing it where required.
 Dinner table centers and doylies worked to match are the smartest and newest idea, and just At this season decorative needlework comes in most opportunely. En passant, it may be suggested that on large table broad ribbons can be most effectively intro iuced. and these must be arranged ac- sording to individual taste, and also with regard to the silver or other orna- menfs in hand for decoration. Much iependa upon the arrangements for lighting, whether candles, lamps, or electric light be used. Two broad rib bons twisting in and out of the base of lamps, fiowerpots or dessert dishes are most effective in two colors. Starting from the center and ending in bows at each corner, this is much admired. and if candles are used ar shaded lamps their shades should match the ribbon. -Chicago Times-Herald.

THE YEAR AND TIE YEARS

GoA Rules TAsn, Therefore I'Asls
 Unity and Significance.
 That which gives the year unity and significance is the continuous rsvela- ton of Gods nature and designs for His children which they disclose Through times of peace and times of war, through long stretches of pros perity and decades of disaster. through the great epochs of progress and the sorrowful epocha of retrogression, the Divine purpose uneeasingly unfohs it. self. For the time n pAst " asen any par .;s,;s,;c .;s,;su;c view of Gods government in the world is possible; as the time ia past when any pertialistic view of His love is credible. We know to-day that He loves all races and generations with Divine impartiality of affection-the Greek as deeply as the Jew, the heathen as truly as the Christian. And we know also that all things como from Him, and that He is present in sorrow as readily as in joy, h diversity as in prosperity. The very sins of men bring into clear light His memorable right eousness, and their punishments are the signs of His love. Whenever men think. feel and act, they make his- tory, and history is the disclosure of Gods purpose, because 1t is the revela- 1 ton of mans nature and destiny. In success and failure. in baseness and nobility, in greatness and meanness, human character and the issues that flow from it are disclosed with equal defniteness; for he who breaks Gods law makes the lew e real and clear e he who obeys It.
 The years are thershcrs the euccees- i've chapter in thAt great book of Revs- lation which all humanity is uncon- sciously writing by thought, word or deed; that spiritual history of the race which is the key of ali other histories. and without the light of which they are all indicating and inadequate. Gods purpose shining through the years gives them the unity of one sublime move ment of life and love end the fathomless significance of the working out of will which overlooas no detail and forgets no life however obscure and insigniH- can't The years are ell divine becauss they come from Him. A one of ouI 2oSts has written:
