open all the time. This fancy for the
white lace waists has come about by the
persistent popularity of the fluffy fronts
Of white, even with fur coats. AZ the
warmer days come, and coats are left
open, an incongruity appears which had
not been noticed with the soft furs for
backgrounds. The white lace waist has
led further into the fancy for white;
coats are being lined with white satin.
What can be prettier than this? 1t
sounds perishable, but is really not so.
The white waist and the coat lining are
both protected from the dust Of the
street by simply buttoning the coat. The
greatest incongruity is that these beauti.
full waists are even worn with cloth skirts.
II the cloth be pale gray then it is not so
bad. but no Difference is paid to the
delicacy Of color.
Roman striped silk ia to be worn a
great deal for waists. To be Roman in
effect the stripe should run around, and
not up and down. Our manufacturers
are not giving US the prettiest OF these
stripes. The stripes are Roman" but
the :olors are decidedly American. In
the Japanese wash silks there are some
exquisite combinations of color in these
stripes. The colors should be most deli

or else daring and bold in contrast. such
as deep blue. bright red, orange-gray and
white. In sierra Gotta" dull blues and
modern tints the Roman stripe" is a

The Right to Oblivion.
FROM TIE SANSKRIT.


In the market-plaee at Delhi sat Beahmin
grave and old,
Meditatins on the Vedas and the truths that
they unfold,
When lowly Sodra passing, paused. This
tale to him he told:
'sMaster, in the heat Of MONDAY was
standing in the street;
Faint was l and weary-hearted, seeking
food that might eat;
And the pavement in the sunlight burned
like fire beneath my feet.
ITO me came noble stranger deeked with
gold and jewels rare
Without asking cast this burden on my
shoulders that bear;
Turned and left me. Though I've sought
him, none have seen him anywhere,
"And l cannot bear it longer" Said the
Beahn,in: "Were you asked
For permission by the stranger as this weight
on you he east?"
And the Sudra answered sadly: NNothing
said he as he passed"
Throw the load from off your shoulders"
spake the sage. "There Is no blame
Should you choose to ease the burden Of a
man you owe no claim,
Tary It you will, for weary is the road DER
which you came.
"Twas unsought this weight you carry;
leave 1t If 1t be your will,
And forget your weary journey as you sink
in slumber still.
None may censure, none may wake you;
rest you safe from every III.

Fashions of the Day.

Everybody has one ambition just now
and that is to prepare for the spring and
summer stock Of shirt waists. There
is no more discussion, no more question
ing as to whether they will be worn OF
not; they are established for time
The shirt waist of 80 does not differ
in style particularly from that Of '97.
The sleeves are little smaller, there is
a little more bag or blouse to the front,
there is little more fastening to the
side and there is a positiveness in the
neck being finished with plain, straight
band to which to fasten the white col
lars. There is certainty that the tie
to be worn will not be so much the tiny
bow and narrow strip around the neck
as the Roman tie or rich ribbons going
twice around the collar and finished with
the inevitable "four-in-hand" in front.
The materials used for shirt waists are
Madras, pique, linen duck, percale and
any OF the materials that will retain
freshness in laundrying.
These materials are used for the early
spring wear. Later, for warmer weather
dotted musliDs and Swiss and all the
thinner materials in white, which were
so popular last year, will again be worn.
Yokes are pointed or straight or round.
as fancy dictates, but both the thin
materials and the heavier ones have the
same finish at the neck for the linen
collar. With clean collars a waiet can
do duty ip freshness much longer.
Extra waists 70. theatres and semi
dress are to be as fashionable as former
~. The prettiest ones are made OF lace
and net and chiffon over colored silks
Chantilly lace is particularly effective,
the fine pattern showing up prettily
over the taffeta silk lining. Brussels
net embroidered or with jetted pat
tern of the fine French cut bead running
over it is still more dressy. When chiffon
is used it is usually shirred or accordion
plated, and is the same color as the
lining.
Effective waists are of cream white
lace over white satin. These are worn
q great deal with coats having beautiful
course, with the coat or
blouse thrown open occasionally. or left

elected, Mr.. Graham would never have known
mat MS large granary was a Storehouse full
OF most delicious honey. The connection be-
tween Lind and honey may seem a little re-
mote TO our readers, but thereby hangs
most interesting tale.
For three years past Mr.. Graham has not

OF the granary, but he never gave any par

OF his hired men to look for honey. well"

raid on the bees
That was two years ago. John Lind was
defeated and the bees remained undisturbed.

possible find some of the sweet extract of bee
manufacture. Remembering how he nut ar
the proposition before, Mr. Graham had re-
course 10 the same excuse IF John Linda
elected, IN look for honey otherwise the
bees Will be let severely alone" When the
returns came the hired man was for opening
the side OF the barn at once but Mr. Graham
would not listen to it until the verified re-
turns were In.
Yesterday he kept his promise and took

soon he had these full to overfowing The

the bees have been at work is matter or
