the statue Of ARMED Liberty" The
first plaster cast of this statue was
made in Rome by Thomas Crawford,
the sculptor. 1t was used by Clark
Mills in 1860 for making the mold in
which he cast the bronze statue sur
mounting the dome Of the Capitol i'll
Washingto I, The height of this sta
tue is nineteen feet six inches. The
Government Board appropriated $15,-

Government Building. This work
was under the immediate supervision
of Miss Grace Lincoln Temple, whose
plans, however, were subject to the
approval of the members of the United

TRANSPARENT FABRICS.

Light, transparent fabrics, especially
for young girls, seem more appropriate
for evening and for the dance, but they
are far more expensive in the end than
the heavier materials that can stand
so much more hard service. White, In
the blue, the cream and the ivory tints
are all very fashionable, while the pale
blue and pink are charming i'll color.
The more simply they are fashioned
the smarter they are, and only folds OF
soft tulle around the shoulders, or pos
sibly tulle sash, is necessary.
There are, of course, many exquisite
satin gowns, with lace applique, en-
broidered with gold or silver paillettes,
and one model that has stood the test
of time most maryelously is trimmed
with a wide flounce Of rare old lace,
on which are bands Of narrow white
velvet ribbon embroidered with pearl
and crystal beads, while the pattern of
the lace is also outlined with pearls
and rhinestones. The front of the low
waist is completely covered with en-
broidered lace, and there are elbow
sleeves with deep ruffleS of lace. This
is a most picturesque model and one
that stays in fashion year after year.
