4 French Fashion.

If American women only realized how much more slender their waists would be, as well as the saving of time in dress ing, they would more generally adopt the French fashion of having corset cover and skirt made In one piece, especially to wear with thin dresses.
 The sweater affected by this years sum mer girl has lost its similarity to a man s praise be to Allah-and is made in varying styles, pretty patterns and dainty colors The newest ones made low necked with an adjustab ble collar, so they can be equally comfortable in the hot sun shine or a chilling wind. White is the favorite color, those fecked with green being considered most chic.
 For a young girl dark blue mohair makes desirable tennis skirt worn over white shirt waist piped with red silk and a tie of the silk. The popular finish at the waist line Is the soft crush grdle of ribbon or liberty silk.
 There are indications that Dretoire styles will be revived this fal the pointed revers, gauntlet cuffs, poke brims and in creasng height of crowns limiting at it.
 The oldtime button mold is forging to the front as a trimming. Various sizes worked in silk and used as centers to scroll designs in the lace, placed along the edges of fiounces or used to loop fiounc- ing in the admired festooned effect.
 The macrame lace of--well, say sev- eral years ago-is one of the fads of the hour. but unlike that of earlier days. it
  in the natural flax color. So far it has been used simply insertion for pongee gowns, and is more effective and less ec- centric than one would suppose. But It's general adoption is rather doubtful.

Ii Didn't Work,

He was middle-agcd, poorly dress
ed and decidedly fusSy. He had hardly
taken his seat in the restaurant when
he began to grumble about everything
in sight. There, was nothing on the
bill OF fare fit to eat, he declared, and
kept the waiter busy attending to his
many tri1ing wants. Finally he order
ed some chops we'll done and cup Of
coffee brought to him at once. The
beverage was not to his liking and he
sent it back for repairs, voicing a COM
plant louder than ever. After waiting
FIVE minutes he demanded his chops
and at intervals Of a minute repeated
the demand. At length in a burst OF
anger he declared he would go some
where else to eat and called for his
check for the coffee Grabbing over
coat and hat he was about to rush out
when the man who sat beside him in
terrupted.
That's not your coat" he said
sternly.
"Oh-beg pardon-a mistake" stam-
mered the angry one as he replaced the
heavy Silk-lined coat on the hook, took
his own shabby one from an adjoining
peg and left the place.
Il lost a new derby through that
dodge once" said the watchful one as
he resumed his meal. That game Of
kicking at everything and working up
a show of anger as an excuse for abb
sent -mindedness is being extensively
worked nowadays. The minute he be-
gan his protests was on at once Did
you notice the awful rag was going TO
leayc?"

Two Points of View.

"You never know what it is to be

tainly life loses all charm to the con-
frmed invalid, though he be Tapped in
luxury. A doctor compares the state
of mind OF a man before dinner and
after who suffers from indigestion. Be-
fore dinner the patients thoughts arc
something OF this kind
What a jolly thing life is! How
grand it is to breathe the pure air, to
revel in the glorious sunshine. to laugh
and be merry! With friends all around,
prosperous future before one, all
ones hopes and plans turn out well.
1t may safely be said that we live in a
good country and that life is the most
enjoyable state imaginable
But after dinner, when the salmon
and the cucumber and the lobster salad
are getting in their deadly work, the
same man thinks something. like this =

He Knew What to Do.

In the old canal days, a fine setter
was taken by his master on packet
boat which was SO crowded that the
dog was put in the captains cabin to
be out OF the way. His owner reached
his destination after nightfall, and had
taken so much wine by that time that
he was carried off the boat, and no one
remembered his setter. Next morning
the captain took the dog on deck, but
was much afraid he would jump off to
the tow-path and try to return that way,
and so handsome an animal would have
been in danger of being stolen, Carlo,
however, lay perfectly quiet, but with
all air OF listening that attracted notice.
Toward noon he heard the sound OF
the horn OF packet coming from the
opposite way, and, as the boats passed
each other he made a leap, and was
next heard from as having got off at
the place .'here his master had stopped,
and as having gone at once TO the
house where the man was guest. HUI
man intelligence could not have sur
passed that shown by this animal.

Her Letter and Her Answer.

would you be kind enough to re-
turn my photograph" she wrote. I
gave it to you in moment of girlish
folly, and | have since had occasion to
regret that l was SO thoughtless in
such matters"
Of course she pictured that photo
graph framed and hung up in his
room, and was inclined to think that
he would part with it with deep re-
gret. Just why she wanted 1t re-
turned Is immateral. Of course he
had offended her in some way, but II
is unnecessary to inquire how.
The answer to her note came the
following day.
81 regret" it read, Chat | am lin'
able at this late day to pick out your
photograph. However, send you my
entire collection, numbering little
over 500, and would request that you
would return all except yon. own by
express at my expense
