three months. and this is probably due to
the fact that trains are so inconvenient
for summe gowns. 1t is quite a task to
hold even the lightest kind of a skirt for
any length Of time. and this new style is
a compromise between ankle-length
models and those with long trains.
The skirt illustrated is made OF pale
gray brilliantine. with fancy braid for
trimming. 1t is shaped with seven cores,
closely adjusted from belt to knee, and
flares smartly at the lower edge.
The front gore and shallow yoke are in
one piece. tiny darts fitting the yoke close
ly around the belt. The yoke fastens in

IS attached 10 the yoke.
Extensions added on the back OF each

The Great EnCyclical Letters of Pope
Leo KIT constitute the best possible
memorial of the deceased Pontif. They
reveal not only his character and his
views relating to the most important
events Of his reign. but also his literary
character. The time was not wasted that
he devoted TO writing Latin verse. In his
encyC!Icals the seutcnti0us and epigram-
matte utterauCes are traCeable to this
scholarly practice. It IS not always posi-
Bile to trauSpuSc the fun Value of the
Latin IN which for the most part these
fly and character OF the writer are dis
CcrnibIe throughout. His views are eX-
pressed in very much his own peculiar
manner, with Il patient attention for de-
tail. Noticeable is his tactfulness and con-
Ciliatory disposition and care to palliate
an unpleasant statement. The letters have
been collected into q volume by the Rev
erend John J. Wynue, 5. J., and published
