All these things had deterrent effect
on Mrs. Platt's maneuvers, and even

NEW YORK, Feb. 15.-Mrs. w. K.
Vanderbilt and her sister-in-Iaw, Mrs.
j. Borden Hartman, have determined
to act upon the advice recently given
by the Rev. DR.. Rainsford, of ST.

elusive attitude of women of wealth,
saying that they should take a more
direct and active interest in the af-
fairs of those less fortunate Mrs.
Vanderbilt has begun her work by CIV

condition that it be spent to send nurses

It is understood, will be only a frac-

same purpose, if the work prospers as
she hopes.

If 1t is found advisable to add a new
house or handsome reception gown to
ones wardrobe at this season of the
year, no more serviceable costume
could be bought than an all-over lace
gown, as it may be used for almost
any formal or informal occasion in
town and will also make a charming
summer dress.
Pure white and cream colored laces
of rather heavy weight, such as Irish,
cluny and renaissance, are the most
used, but there are also many charm
ing gowns made of darker laces, some
even being as deep in tone as Irvine
color
These gowns are made simply and
need very little, if any, trimming, for
the lave itself is so lovely that addi-
tional ornamentation, except in some
small but striking way, is unnecessary.

common Sense In the Home.

Laughter and soft clapping of hands the
other day greeted this statement In Mrs
Emma Moffett Tyng's talk on Sense and
Sentiment in Home Making: ITO be a
wife and mother does not mean to sit upon
throne, with a canary bird over your
head and a man to bring you food every
night" She was lecturing before the
New York Home Economic association
at it's regular monthly conference.
THE woman" she continued ''Who
does not want to be the center Of home
and have little children about her is an
anomaly, but the pity of 1t is, that those
most important of all vocations for women
marriage and home making-are so
often undertaken without the least prep
aration. Fools rush in where angels
fear to tread. l don't think it would be
very dreadful thing If young men and
women at the close of their university
course could come before their professor,
who should say: Now. young gentle
man, suppose you are thinking of get
your qualifications" Then if he needs
instructing as to how best to steer his
craft. how to provision it, and so forth
see that he is properly Instructed The
same with the young woman. Grand
mothers methods were all good in her
day, but the world moves. and the young
woman of the present needs more than
just what grandmother knew.
If all the coed people who deprecate
divorces would be more careful about
making marriages; if the churches would
not give their sanction to bargains for
titles, and then deplore the outcome. there
would not be so many mistakes to rec
tify. The first thing for any human be-
ing to learn is that life IS law. and any
transgression brings trouble

1t is made with a circular skirt, which
is very full at the bottom, over a white
taffeta foundation yelled with chiffon,
and at the foot of the front Of the skirt
are appliqued three Of these lovely, big,
white velvet chrysanthemums with just
a suspicion Of gold in their centers.
The bodice is high neck, but the silk
lining is cut low so that the neck and
arms are seen through the lace. 1t is
tight fitting across the shoulders and
blouses over the belt of white velvet,
and at the bust is appliqued one of
the large chrysanthemums like those
on the skirt.
With this in summer might be worn

The Burlington railroad Is making

to depend on bituminous coal for fuel
is an example, of confidence In labor
conditions here that Is unnecessary.
The road runs into the Lafayette coal
fields In northern Colorado. From
this source a large amount OF coal
will be taken for fuel for the engines.

Conductor Breaks Record.

Conductor James P. Smith Of In

oldest conductor in the employ Of the
Big -Four. last month broke his own
record, and, so far as known, the rec
ord of any railroad man for distance
covered in one month while in actual
service. Conductor Smith rode 10,905
miles in January. In twenty-five years
IF service, running a passenger train,
the best record Of Conductor Smith
previous to his January run was $500
miles, and this itself was regarded by
railroad men as a record-breaker.
Mr.. Smith is s. years Of age and
began service with the Illinois Cen
trail as brakeman in January OF 1857,
Since then he has served under nine
