Judges Remarkable Dog.

There is a Judge living in Charles

terrier of wonderful intelligence The
court in which the dogs owner is one
Of the presiding judges generally ad-
journs at two o'clock in the afternoon.
1t sometimes happens that the session
is extended until after two o'clock,
and then, it is said, the dog makes
itself manifest.
When two o'clock comes and court
is not adjourned, so the story goes,
the dog, which always lies at the feet
of the judges, begins tugging at the
bottom of his masters trousers. If
this is not sufficient to cause an adj
journment. the trousers legs of the
other judges are similarly attacked.
On one occasion, it is said, after the
usual efforts had failed, the dog left
the bench and began tugging at the
trousers of the lawyer who was then
addressing the ourt-Baltimore Sun.

Gold Only, and Gems.

Those about to celebrate their BIRTH
day might take hint from Grand Sec
retary Yung L. of Pekin, says the Lon
don Express.
On the sixtieth anniversary of his
birth few days ago he refused to ac-
cept any presents unless they were of
intrinsic value. Some brought nim
storks and deer of solid pure gold, each
foot high and beautifully chased;
gold Buddhas; green jadestone vases
of the most beautiful shades; diamond
and precious stone belts and rings, and
foot-high "God of Longevity Of
solid pure gold, ensconced in a minia-
ture temple of the finest jadestone of
the purest white color, encrusted with
diamonds and precious stones of great
value.
All these presents were graciously
received, but others, such as scrolls
and tablets, unless Of great antiquity,
were uniformly refused without even
word Of thanks.

Sailor blouses are always attractive
and suit the greater number of figures
to q nicely. The smart May Manton
model shown in the large illustration
is made Of white linen with shield and
trimming of white dotted with blue
and makes part Of costume, but the
design suits odd waists equally well
and is adapted to all washable fabrics,
to flannel, albatross and wasting silks.
The blouse is cut with front and
back only and fitted by means of shoul-
der and under-arm seams. To its open
neck is scanned the big sailor collar
that can be cut in round or square out
line as preferred. The shield to which
the short collar is attached is buttoned
round the neck and fastened to the
waist beneath the collar. The sleeves
are in the new bishop style with deep
pointed cuffs.
To cut this blouse in the medium
size four yards Of material twenty
one inches wide, three and three-quar-
ter yards twenty-seven inches wide,
three yards thirty-two inches wide or
two yards forty-four inches wide will
be required, with three-quarter yard
for shield and stock collar.

Mothers Who Are Blind.

A mothers blindness is proverbial.
OF course, we all know 1t is in refer
ence to her want of perception in
regard to her children's faults that the
saying has arisen, but her blindness
Is evinced in many other ways as we'll.
An instance in point is the incompre-
hensible obtuseness which some over
proud parent frequently displays in
quoting remarks made by her sons and
daughters-speeches that she repeats
with evident pride in their perspicuity
and quick-wittedness but which not
only do not impress the hearer in the
way she intends, but actually present
her beloved offspring in a distinctly
unfavorable light Disagreeable quail
ties which she would be the first to de-
tect and criticise in others, when shown
by her own children she actually con-
verts by the alchemy of maternal par
tiality into attributes that she deems
desirable, and proudly repeats their
egotistical or uncharitable speeches,
quite unconscious of the effect of her
garrulity on her public. "Deliver me
from my friends" is a well known
proverb which might often be trans
posed into "Deliver me from my
mother. New York Tribune.

Arrangement of Linen Closet.

The well regulated linen closet should
have its napkins and cloths arranged
In sets. matching in quality and de-
sign. 1t is good idea to arrange the
napkins folded on the folded cloth and
tie them in fiat package with a rib
bon fastening around from all sides.
Care should be taken that household
linen, not only napery, but towels and
bed linen, is rotated in service. Some
times the bottom Of the pile of towels,
sheets or pillowcases is not touched
for months, the upper pieces of the
piles being conveniently taken off con-
stantly and replaced by themselves as
they come from the weekly laundering.
It will be found much more economical
10 take them in turn, as in this way
they wear alike and much longer than
if in constant use-New York Post.

Strapped lace insets are noted.
Double and triple skirts are voguish.
India linen is ideal wear for sultry
days.
Strapped Irish lace collars have great
style.
White mohair walking suits are truly
smart.
Tiny, linen-covered moles adorn linen
dresses.
High-low necks are square, as well
as round.
French dots are the most delicate
trimming.
Appliques Of every conceivable ma.

Flat rosettes work out some clever
trimming schemes.
Pale-blue lightweight broadcloth is
lovely for cool day drives.
On many sheer dresses there are
sashes instead of coat-tails.

Linen dresses in delicate green are
delights to the eye in summer.
Stitchings and strappings are mixed

Embroidery is indeed very modish,

Foulards are delightfully."- cool. So

There are tassels Of silk, wool and

silken sheaths which are a cross be-

young girls and are as convenient and

very stylish May Manton example

trimming Of cream guipure lace and
narrow bands of the material and

loose from the neck and shoulders.

WISE WORDS,

Dead issues create no discussion.
Love links heaven to our earth.
Well-being is the only true virtue.
The generous are always grateful.
Mighty rivers rise in quiet places.
The new man will have new man
ners.
FURNISHED brass shines brighter than
nuggets of gold.
Many negatives of vice do not make
q positive virtue
Personal responsibility cannot be dis
charged by proxy.
The music ceases when the instru-
ment listens to itself
The flowers of rejoicing bloom on the
tree of righteousness.
To lose one of our trials may mean
to lose all our triumphs.
No amusement can be innocent when
It becomes all absorbing.
Many a mans practice puts an ex-
tinguisher on his profession.
1t is better to be true to the false
than to be false to the true.
A mans greatness is often exhibited
in his self-imposed restrictions.
Honor is one Of those things that
he that seeks it shall not find it.
He who fits his shoulder to the yoke
is fitting his brows for the crown.
1t is easier to see the way we ought
to go than to go in the way We see.-
