Of dress. and when these gowns are
made by the best dressmakers they
are as extravagant a style as it is pos
sible to find
The first gown sketched, dainty
summer confection of dark blue satin
foulard, has pointed tunic back and
front made Of the foulard and accor-
dion plated, showing a white glace un-
derskirt with many frills edged with
half inch dark blue ribbon. The vest
and upper part Of the sleeve are Of
white glace covered with a latticework
Of half inch dark blue ribbon. The
fashionable tuckings are introduced on
bodice and sleeves. and the bodice frill
is white closely plated.
Linen gowns make fine showing in
the summer wardrobe of the up to date
woman. They must be many and yari-
GUS to supply the necessary number of
fresh morning costumes. Butchers
linen, linen lawn and linen duck are
all popular materials and come In sew
eral colors, of which ecru and pale blue
are favored Most of these gowns are
simply made with blouse or jacket
waist and trimmed with stitched linen
bands of contrasting color. but some
assume more elaborate garniture. The
second cut, for instance, shows an ele-
CANT gown of ecru linen trimmed with
fanciful braid and gold buttons and
crowned with a hat Of black tulle
swathed In white tulle.
White whipcord skirts well cut and
with box plated backs are excellent
for wear all the summer through They

Mr.. e. Denison Ross, professor Of Per
sian in University college, London, gives
In The North American Review an inter
esting description of a modern Persian
bookstore:
''In every big bazaar a certain num-
Der of shops are set apart for the sale of
books In these one finds the bookseller
lin his long, dark. outer mantle and his
high, black, lambskin hat-seated on the
floor, surrounded by his little stock in
trade. The front of his shop is open,
ike butchers, while his books are Ell
sher arranged in shelves against the three
walls or in heaps upon the floor. His
collection usually consists of lithograph
editions of Korans. schoolbooks, favorite
poets and historians, but the assortment
is limited Besides these, hidden away
in corner. he often has one or two man
uscripts which he has either bought as a
speculation or is trying to dispose of for

which ended in hearty laugh and
which was the cause of an astounding
remark from Hon John w. Farriss, the

their fists at each other and roared like a
pair Of Numidian lions Everybody ex-
peeted and many hoped to see a regular
old fashioned knockdown and drag out
fight. which expectation and hope were
frustrated and dashed to the ground by
Speaker Far.iss remarking:

three or four lxinutes. The tea used
should be a light delicate kind. Put 1t
in a jug with two or three thin slices of

WHERE MY TREASURE IS.

Lord of the living, when my race is run,
Viii that pass beneath the risen sun;
Suffer my sight to dim upon some scene
OF thy good green.
Let my last pillow be the earth love,
With fair intnity of blue above,
And heeting, purple shadow Of cloud
Ny only shroud.
A little lark above the morning star,
Shall shrin the tidings Of my end afar;
The mufiied music of lone sheep bell
Shall be my knell.
And where stone heroes trod the moor Of old,
Where bygone wolf howled round granite fold
Hide thou, beneath the heather's newborn light,
My endless night.

Principles ReprocIaimed.

1t is entirely IN keeping with the
eternal fitness Of things that on the
one hundred and twenty fourth ami
versary of Jefferson's day eJefferson's
party should assemble in the heart Of
the vast domain which he added to the
Union. the richest under heaven, to re-
proclaim his principles and to nomi-
nate a successor who will once more
make those principles paramount In
the conduct of the government.
At Kansas City the unities are pre-
served and the names of Jefferson and
Bryan indissolubly linked together.
Each leaped into the circle Of the inn
mortals at an early age, Jefferson be-
Ing only SO when he wrote the great
Declaration. which will be read with
rapture as long as the earth revolves
upon it's axis or slides down the eclip-
tic, and Bryan being only 80 when in
that astounding speech before the Chi
cago convention he not only snatched
the presidential nomination from the
renowned veterans of his party, but
also wrote his name on the scanty list
of really great orators.
