deavor to support existence in the
Pale. And this Pale of Settlement,
which stretches along the frontier
from the Baltic to the Black sea, was
a hell of seething wretchedness."
The edicts of 1890 resulted in that
sad new exodus" of such recent date
as not yet to be forgotten. Hordes
of Jewish eXiles were sent out from
Russia, many practically penniless,
for they had been obliged to part
with their property for mere moth
ing. In Russia's mad haste to be rid
of the hated subjects forcible eXpul-
sionstwere the rule. Children became
separated from parents, husbands
from wives; and in Moscow the zeal
of the chief of police led to barbar-
Gus acts on the part of his followers.
The aggregate number of Jews in
Russia, as given by the last Gncom-
plete) census reports, exceeds 4,O00,-
900; 2.s43.364 of these in the western
and southwestern provinces; 1928 in
the three townships of Odessa, Kerch
and Sebastopol, and 431, 500 in Poland.
Israel Zangwill and other noted men
of his race agree that the hope for
the Russian Jew, as for other perse-
cuted Jews, lies in the Zionist move
ment, the gathering together of all
the ''chosen people" into a country
and land of their own.

were safe, though their liberties
were more or less restricted; but the
latter year marked the beginning of
active enmity toward the people of
Israel. Really the crime for which
they were to be punished was that
they had prospered, sufficient ex-
cuse for punitive measures on the
part of the ignorant, degraded peas
ants. The envy of the peasants,
added to official intrigue, proved too
much for the victims. Not only were
laws enacted against them, but at the
smallest excuse mobs descended on
the wretched Jews; so long as it was
not stopped by police interference,
violence had sway, pillage, murder.
and worse, rapine, ragged. And the
civil prosecutions brought about re-
suits very disastrous, if not so read
lily shocking.
The new laws interfered most Sc
riously with the welfare Of the He
brew subjects. Jews were not to be
allowed to furnish substitutes for
military service, and in that service
they could not rise higher than the
rank of non-commissioned officer. In
1890 the Russians were forbidden to
sell, lease or mortgage real estate to
Jews throughout the empire, and
Jews who had acquired such property
were compelled to dispose of it; jew
ish artisans, apothecaries' assistants,
dentists, midwives and all appren-
tees We're to be expelled from all
! places outside the Pale. Next, the
same year, there was ordered a gen.
eral expulsion of all foreign Jews
from southern Russia.
Families that had lived for years in
the same place were forced to seek
new homes in foreign lands or en-

and, as usual, the apparently simple
lines, taken from the old masters,
make the most successful headgear.
A great many white and black chip,
cream a..d black Leghorn, and lace hats
are seen.
Here are descriptions of those illus
trated in the sketch: In one may be
seen a large picture hat covered en-
tirely both on the crown and on the
outer edge and under side Of the brim
with plaitings of tulle shading from
pale rose pink to quite deep crimson.
The effect of this coioring in the soft
tulle is exceedingly pretty. On one
side of the brim there is crimson
Paradise plume taking up the different
tone of the tulle, while wide straps
of velvet ribbon, in dark crimson and
pale pink, are draped under the bri1n
and finished with bow on one side.
A charming toque of soft white tulle
is another. This toque is made in a
most becoming shape, with very deep
brim turned up sharply at the back,

but curving downwards in front. The
crown of this toque is covered with
white roses and outlined with pale
green foliage, while the white tulle
brim is lined inside with the same flow
ers and leaves in quite novel fashion,
and finished on the outer side with
green foliage. AT the back of this
toque is smartly finished, with loops
of leafgreen velvet on either side, to-
gether with clusters of white roses and
fringes of small green buds. Still an
other is toque made in the most be-
coming shape and consisting of dark
sapphire blue tulle, cleverly tucked and
folded to follow the lines of the shape.
Then there is French hat in Bre-
tonne sailor shape, carried out in
mauve straw. Folds of dark heliotrope
tulle are draped round the crown,
which is also outlined with band of
dark velvet, while on one side towards
the front there is knot of bright
cerise satin surrounded by clusters OF
small roses in various shades of pink
and dark damask red. Under the brim
at the back there are clusters Of roses
in these colorings with bows and ends
in soft satin ribbon, some pink, some
violet, and some dark crimson.

superstititous, fanatical, not far re-

hopeless, pathetic ignorance, medieval
backwardness and criminal fanaticism
are part of the story the rising tells"
The present outbreak is but the re-
suit of the anti-Semitic feeling that
long has had root in the cars do
main; and the Russian government,
judging the future by the past, has
due cause to feel uneasiness as to
continuation Of mob rule in the dis
tricts inhabited by the hapless Sem
ties.
The Jew in Russia has felt, with
short intermissions of rest, the iron
hand of the oppressor for over a hun
dred years. 1t is now more than a
century that the holy empire has had
to deal with the inconvertible. He
brew. When in the eighteenth cen
tury the empire added Poland and
portion of Turkish territory to her
domains of necessity many Jews were
added too. With their anti-Christ
they were hateful to her strict ortho-
doxy, and she thought to solve the
problem by setting aside for these
outcasts a sort of pest place to which
they Should be confined Thus came
into being the pale Of Settlement"
whose area has been enlarged from
time to time, and then again dimin-
ished Russia outside the Pale, need
ing the cleverness and industry of the
Jew, occasionally invited him out to
help her; when she was through with
him always kicking him back again.
And this has been going on for hun
dred years; for social and economic
reasons the Russians enticing the
Jews to leave the Pale; for envy and
fanaticism driving him into it.

strapplngs, finished also with stole
ends, appear upon the sleeves, which
are very full below the elbow, and
there is an inner vest of ivory-white
guipure, the effect of which is particu-
larry dainty.

ivory-white adorns another blouse OF

ing arranged so that it has the effect
of berthe. The blouse, in this case:
is made in ivorywhite crepe de chine:
with narrow shell tucks across the
| front below the fringe, and a soft tie
of gray-green silk draped in and out
round the neck, and then drawn, down
the front, where it is finally finished
with silk cord ornaments. Above the
| fringe there are applique motifs and
medallions forming a kind of she'll
shaped trimming all the way round,
while on the collar, and again at the
wrist, there are rouleauX in green-gray
silk, and strappings of white crepe de
chine fastened with small buttons in
dull gold.
Quite the latest and smartest thing
in the way of blouse-coatee may be
seen in another sketch, carried out in
black chiffon, and known as the "Ce-
leste" The coatee is arranged with a
number of very deep tucks back and
front, the gracefully hanging sleeves
being also tucked horizontally from
the shoulder downwards. The trim
ming of this very smart little garment
consists of wide bands of black velvet
ribbon, connected with hairpin stitch
ing, and finished with very pretty drol
ornaments in chiffon and silk cord.
