small pieces, yet with a simple waist
of mousseline or Liberty the jacket
will make the whole gown appear new
and up-to-date.
The sleeveless model is cut with
fronts and back only that are extend
ed over the shoulders to form epaul-
cites. At the front are arranged bias
bands by means of which it is held in
place. The second model is also sim
pie and fitted by means of shoulder
and under-arm seams only, but is
turned back at the fronts to form
small, tapering revers. The sleeves are
one-seamed and slashed at the lower
edge. At the neck is stock collar
that, with the jacket fronts, is held
by tiny straps of the material.
To cut the sleeveless bolero one AMI

two yards twenty-one inches wide, or
one yard forty-four or fifty inches

the House at least two full terms, and
those who have forced themselves
above the surface before the close of
single term can almost be counted on
the fingers of one hand. The ordinary
Congressman comes and goes and
leaves no trace behind him, except on
the salary vouchers. The man who
stays in the House for more than two
terms has fair chance Of welding
little influence. He gets his name into
the Congressional Record once in q
while; he is recognized by the Speak
er occasionally. and If he is unusually
lucky the newspapers take him up
and sometimes give him headline all
to himself. There are 1874 members of
the present House who are serving
their third term or better. OF these
twenty-five, at a generous estimate
are so well known that their names

of the season for young girls, as well
as for their elders, and means genuine
warmth as well as style. The May

many features, and is ia every way up

The fronts are loose in box style and
turn back to form the revers. The

to the top of the stitching and so pro-

collar is cut in four portions, high at
the back and rounds off at the front.

TUE GREATNESS.

The wisest man ever knew
Had neither wealth nor fame;
Few people in this busy world
Have ever heard his name;
He never wrote book nor led
An army to the fray,
Nor asked men for their votes nor mourned
Becauce they said him nay.
He may have known his Bible and
His Shakespeare through and through
If SO he never tried to let
The world knoY what he knew;
He toiled, and Fortune sweetly smiled,
And still he toiled away,
And stopped to rest and found himself
A millionaire one day.
This was the greatest, wisest man
I ever knew, because,
Although he never wrote book
Nor won the worlds applause,
He took his million and withdrew
From all the rush and roar,
Instead of starting anew
To win million more.

yYhere Flies Go TO in yyinter,

That flies are present in the summer
and absent in the winter is matter
Of common knowledge. Just where
the flies go to in winter, however, is a
question which few can answer.
This mystery as to the whereabouts
Of flies in the colder months is deep
ened by the fact that flies. like Adam
and Eve, are born fully grown and CT
natural size. There are no sman
flies of the same species. the little ones
which you occasionally observe and
feel being of different kind from the
larger ones.
In winter. il search of the house

will be found in great numbers secret

tween the partitions of floors. Around

Dead gold ornaments are among the

effective on black, red, and, indeed, all
