For Toilet Details.

A capital notion is large case Of
flax linen. daintily embroidered. with
different sized receptacles for holding
gloves, wells. cravats, waist ribbons
and the hundred and one details that
nowadays go to make up well-turned-
out woman's toilet. Wells carefully
handled will last long time, whereas.
tossed into drawer without being fold
ed, and stretched out to their original
width, they scarcely last week In
condition one would term respectable.
The tendency of all these open-mesh
woven things Is to shrink. The fancy
for the long gauze veil. with deep hem
border, grows apace. That these
spend quite half their life thrown
back over the hat In nowise Affects
their popularity. Indeed, for such
were they apparently ordained. the
smart French and American elegantes
flagrantly adding an ordinary fine,
russian net for actual use.

No lime Lost.

within reach of the >meddlesome little

remembered, too. that there was moth.

the aromatic contents of that particu-
lar bottle.
Hurriedly calling the porter, the
anxious mother prepared a message
to be telegraphed from the first sta
ton. 1t read:

altogether soothing message from the

Polar Bears Playful in Water

Polar bears enjoy bath for the
sake of cleanliness as well aa for
swimming and as hunting ground.
AT certain geological garden when
the old polar bears bath was being
filled with fresh water it would stand
with its mouth open, letting the water
run through its jaws. and when the
bath was full would play all kinds tf

of its antics was to float on its back

For Tailor-Made Gowns.

Chiffon cloth is being largely used
for tailor-made gowns this summer. II
is perhaps the most fashionable of all
the thin fabrics. and. while 1t has all
the suppleness and evanscent beauty
OF chiffon. 1t also possesses the dura
bility of cloth. and works up into the
most fascinating OF dresses. In the
soft pastel tones it is exquisite, and 1,
lends itself SO very easily to the pic
turesque draperies and gagings that
are now the mode. Lace Is a charm
ing adornment especially that of o
fairly coarse weave, and 1t looks well
in conjunction with galloon. or sils
braid, or even embroideries.

Coral necklaces, as well as those of
turquoise beads, have come in with
the temperance of gold ones, and
when becoming either of these is a
very effective ornament. IN one of
the prettiest long chains the fine gold
links are interspersed with oblong bits
of cut aqua marines and swung on the
end of the chain is a large locket,
trimmed with the same stones, only
smaller, and in the center rests sin

Arch of Titus, and beside the Arch
of Constantine. under which he passes
between the Coelian and Palatine hills
in the road known as the Triumphsi
Way. After short walk along this
road he reaches the ascent OF tie
Clivus Scauri, and there in front of
him stands, on high platform,
reached by wide and elevated stair
case. the church of st. Gregory.
This Is the spot so sacred to the
English race. The events that had
their origin here have made the place
sacred to that people. The church was

Here dwelt his father. Gordianus, and
his mother. st. Silvia. whose memory
is preserved in spall chapel to the

memory.
From this platform in front of tie
restored church of st. Gregory on the
Coelian Hill-renewed by Cardinal
Scipio Borghese-and down the steps
that must have been much like the
present ones descended ST. Augustine
and the thirty-nine monks who accom-
panied him, sent by Gregory, over the
unfamiliar lands and seas. to carry
the light of the gospel and of Chris
tian civilization to the benighted and
half-barbarous people who dwelt in
the land of England.
The Jesuit historian, FIR. Hartmann
Grisar. in his history of Gregory the

filled with admiration of Gregory, and
that they invested the circumstance CT

The traveller at Rome, and especial

sea. finds here many memorials of the
great man to whose efforts he owes
his Christianity. This is but one side
of Gregory's wondrous energy for the
spread of religion and civilization.
The liturgy of the church was regulat-

still know as the Gregorian chant or
plain song, had been Fixed by him.

that this ravaging fungus, for years

Department Of Agriculture appear to
be completely at sea.
The government experts have been
watching with some interest the eff
forts Of the Australian farmers to con-
quer the rust fungus by opposing to it
resistant varieties of wheat; but not
withstanding the encouraging measure
of success that has followed these ex-
perimeIts no systematic study of rust
resistance has been made by the
United States Department OF Agricul-

on the wheat crops Of Minnesota and

the Department Of Agriculture should
make the solving Of this problem
prompt, earnest and persistent enter

The cost OF the necessary invesuga.

considered in view of tho immense
losses sustained in seasons favorable
to the rapid growth of the rust fun

she intended to call How Became a

it Is to him that they owe, IL not their
conversion. at least their restoration
To Christianity. There Is nothing IL ore
popular or picturesque In the history
OF England during the Saxon period
than that which tells OF the English
boys exposed for sale as slaves in the
marketplace at Rome. Gregory. who
was still a young deacon. had noted
the fair faces. and the golden hair
falling in long locks, and the blue eyes
of the Saxon youths who stood there.
with cords on their hands, waiting for
a purchaser.
From what country do these slaves
Gomez" was the question that Gregory
asked the traders who brought them.
The merchant replied that they had
come from the land of the English. or
Angles. where every one was of sim
liar complexion, and that they were
pagans. Then. heaving great sigh,
he said. with a sort of poetic humDr."
as Green describes 1t: Not Angles,
but angels. with faces so angel-lilie."
And then he added that it was ne.,es-
sary they should become the brothers
OF the angels of heaven. From what
province come they" he asked again.
From Deira." answered the slave
trader. "Deira.' was the untranslata-
BILE reply: AYE. plucked from God s
ire. and called to Chrst's mercy. And
what is the name of their king?"
"Aella." they told him; and Gregory
seized on the word as of good omen.
"Alle-luia shall be sung there" he
cried. and passed on. musng how the
angel-faces should be brought to
sing it.
One writer considers it natural that
Gregory purchased the children and
brought them to his residence. which
was not far from the Forum in which
the young Saxons were exposed for
sale. "The ransoming of these three
or four slaves" writes the author in
question. Count de Montalembert.
