In the tropically dangerous sea OF sleep
There stretches a coral strand.
Where the moonlight plays mid the leafy palms
That grow in the dream-world land
And here II Is that fond dreams meet
And dance on the sands Of gold;
While the misty shapes we chase in sleep
Within our arms we hold.
A land where the gold brown poppy bud
Swaps gently IN the night.
And with its opium laden breath
Lulls us to realms OF light.
There sins. there no fearA
No sorrows vain regret:
IT'S silent kingdom of happiness
Where we wander and-forget. Life.

1t really pays to make up your silk pet
ticoats yourself. AS very smart effects may
be accomplished by surprisingly simple
means this is not q difficult task. In order
that the dress skirt may cling with un-
rippled smoothness the petticoat must be
carefully fitted to the hips. The spreading
fullness about the foot is achieved by ruff
fies. or a shaped fiounce is set on about
half way down the skirt. and the ruffies
are sewed on this. Accordion plating under
deep Vandyke points Is still used This Is

As to Flattery.

New York Evening Sun.
Women. Of course, have few failings but
there Is one little popularity that belongs
to them that comes very near being a fault.
II may arise from virtue, too, that is,
from desire not to flatter. The more SEN
sible and more nearly perfect the woman
is the more she inclines toward that failing
and the more quiet she is when there is
anything peasingly fiattering to be said.
II is true IN regard to great things and in
regard to those of little Importance but to
the latter especially. She goes on the course
OF reasoning that If the pleasing remark
is true there Is no need of making it. for
the other person probably knows it anyway,
and IL 1t isn't true she wouldn't make it, of
course. No one can find fault with the logic
OF that, but, on the other hand, most per-
sons like TO be fiattered, gently, even when
they know just how mich to reject The
natterer isn't such a bad sort of individual
as she has been painted. She very seldom
matters because she has an axe TO grind
put because she likes to make others COM
PORTABLE. Many of the stern old virtues that
are ever praised are elements of strength
out very uncomfortable ones. And there is
good deal of obstinacy back of the Twill
not-natter spirit. The woman who is deep
~ lmbued with that spirit is liable to be
attached with the bee of frankness One
woman says that the quickest way to rout
tnat awful frankness is to be frank in re-
turn. But few persons recover quickly
enough to do that, and the frank person is
always on the aggressive side.

 Undoubtedly the group Of extremists and professional intrigueres is dis posed 10 risk a stroke against the present regime concurrently with the decision in the Dreyfus ease and the trial of Deroulede If they could rely on a single regiment they would ven- ture much, but there is TO. reason to believe that their intrigues are making progress in the army, while the gov ernment is far stronger with the army and public opinion than in February, through the reaction produced by the Dreyfus testimony.
 On the other hand, the increasing fury Of many of the Dreyfusards against all things military, gives the reactie1ary agitatCrs a handle; while the curious nervousness in Paris over the trivial postmen's strike empha- sizes the Panicky condition of the public mind.
