Attractive Rufled skirts.

There are many attractive ruffled
skirts for slender women, but they
should be passed by by stout maids.
For example, a recently imported mod
ell has skirt of pale yellow net, rath-
er full and long, trimmed with five ruff
fies of yellow pineapple silk, which
grow narrower toward the ground.
Each ruffie is edged with a narrow
corded pun of deeper shade Of yell

by fichu tabs that end below the waist
line and are held in place by girdle
Of black taffeta. The sleeves are
puffed and end at the elbow.

A Hint for Artists

Now that hand-painted panels or
trimmings are so much in vogue for
evening gowns there should be a good
chance for skillful artist to make
her own gowns beautiful or dispose
OF such work where it is wanted.
In doing this painting a certain de-
sign Is chosen, perhaps a spray of
flowers of the colors desired, and this
design can then be repeated in the
various parts of the gown, the size of
the design depending on where it is to
be used. Such gown could have the
sash ends. fiat yoke or collar, skirt
panels er other skirt decorations all
painted With the desired pattern. Rib
bon painted with a smaller pattern of
the same design may also be used.
Blouses painted with floral or but
terfy designs are very popular abroa |
and are sure to be worn here.

NOVELTY TO PRINCE HENRY.
Reward for the First Man Who Called
Him a Blockhead.

Prince Henry of Prussia, while rid
ing in an automobile near Kiel recent
ly, suddenly found his way blocked by
a large farm wagon which was going
at a snail's pace The princes chauf-
feur blew his horn over and over
again, but 1t produced no effect on the
sturdy old farmer who was guiding
the sluggish horses, and finally the
prince told the chauffeur to try TO
pass the wagon at all hazards. This
he did, and, though the passage was
very narrow, he skilfully managed to
avoid an accident. The horses
plunged, however. as the putting ma
chine passed by them, and the old
farmer, reused from his apathy.
poured forth storm of maledictions
on the stalwart gentleman in the au-
tomobile.
You're nothing. but a big block
head!" he finally shouted; and at the
words the prince whispered to the
chauffeur, who at once left the car
rage and went up to the old man.
What do you mean by calling his
ROYAL highness blockhead?" he ask
ed him.
Heavens above, Is that his royal
highness?" stammered the farmer
Good Lord! didn't know twas him"
"All right" answered the chauffeur
"The prince is satisfied that you did
not know him, and as you are the first
person who has ever called him
blockhead he wishes to return the
compliment by presenting you with
these five dollars"

pashlna French Mod..-

With the revival of all the pictur.
esque modes, even the tailor-mades
are taking on dressy touch that has
hitherto been foreign to their particu-
lar style. The dashing modes of the
Louis periods are to be seen in the
soft chiffon cloths, and even the new
double-width crepe de chine is now be-
ing made up in the draped models to
which the tailors are giving their best
attention.
And in contradistinction to the old
modes the new ones demand that the
dressy costumes be of silk or velvet
and that the trimming be of cloth.
The novel chiffon faille Franchise. our
old friend come back under the chif-
fon guise. is seen in the Louis Seize
mode with the seams strapped with
cloth. graduated cloth bands upon the
skirt, the characteristic revers faced
with velvet and the cloth appliques
piped with the same.

Old Coinage of England

The occupants of the ancient sees
Of Canterbury and York. during the
Anglo-Saxon period, enjoyed the priv
ilege of issuing their own coinage-a
coinage rich in archaeological, artis-
tic and historical interest, says the
Brooklyn Eagle. No record exists of
the conditions and circumstances un-
der which the right of coinage was
granted to the archbishops of Canter-
oury, beyond the intrinsic evidence of
the coins themselves. Only one type
of coin appears to have been issued
the silver penny. 1t is presumed. from
the appearance of the earliest coins,
the appearance on the earliest coins
of the name of Offa, King of Mercia-
one of the three chief kingdoms of
early England-that that king first
granted the privilege of an indepen-
dent ecclesiastical coinage.
The first archbishop to issue this
money was Jaenberht. who occupied
the see from A. D. 766 to 100. All his
coins bear Offa's name, while some
bear his own. This prelate is noted
The Elbert County tribune., 1904-11-24

in English history for his vigorous,
though unsuccessful, attempt to resist
King Offa's plan for destroying the
power OF the primatial see OF Canter-
bury and transferring the primacy to
Mercian metropolitan. A synod was
held in 1877 at Chelsea, now a part of
London, and the archbishop was
forced to give up large portion of
his province to Higbert, bishop of
Lichfield, who was raised to the rank
OF an archbishop. Jaenberht's success
sor, Aethelheard "a. d. 793-805),
though elected in 791. did not receive
the pallium till 1893. During this in
teryal he appears to have struck coins
with the title of Pontifex instead of
Archiepiscopus. His early coins bear
the name Of Offa, while those struck
after 706 bear that of Coenwulf. who
succeeded Offa as King of Mercia.
Aethelheard's earlier pennies have,
in addition to the name OF Offa, a
star, cross. the Christian monogram,
etc. This prelate was also bishop of
Winchester-the ancient capital of
England.

Furs of Two colors.

An entirely novel idea in fur trim
ming is to applique fur medallions or
flowers in one color on scarfs and
nuns of another color. One beautiful
set of this description is of ermine,
the very white fur being ornamented
with scrolls of moleskin on each
shoulder, on the stole ends, and on the
panels of the large mum.
Tiger and leopard furs are made
up usually in small fancy neckties and
very plain crescent muffs. never
trimmed in any way and lined most
inconspicuously.
Black and the reddish baby calf
follow the same model, and are in
variably simple. The red and white
calf is sometimes lined and combined
with white kid, but the black is all
smooth. glossy black, with not even
jewel in the clasp.
Snake skin, too, should be recorded
as observing these extremely tailor
made designs. All these eccentric furs
are almost wholly worn with tailor
made dresses and with small, unob-
trusive toques, the fur furnishing all
the audacity and showiness necessary
in any one costume.

only a scrap you can use it in con-
nection with ribbon for some sort OF
a neck piece. If little more, it may
do for hat; one kind will serve for
the crown and another for the brim.
Allover lace hats for dressy occasions
are as becoming as they are of the
mode.
The felt or velvet hat may be given
an up-to-date touch by the addition of
a ruching of lace.
Lace Joined by handwork makes the

DANGEROUS Flowers.


The florist held tulip in his hand.
Some people claim that tulip has

fact, 1t has dangerous smell. Take
a tulip of deep crimson color and in
hale it with profound inspirations and
it will be apt to make you lightheaded.
You will say and do queer things
dance. sing, fight, swear and so on.
For two hours you will cut up in thi.
way. Afterward you will be de
pressed.

Explodes an Old Belief

The bloodhound is a much-adver-
tised and greatly overrated dog, ac-
cording to the Washington Star. II
he had a press agent and should lose
his diamonds he could not get more
notoriety than comes to him in the
daily papers. An item of news some
thing like this is printed almost daily:
Robbers came to Squeedunk last
night. They broke into the black
smith shop and took tools, with which
they broke open the postoffice safe.
They then escaped on a handcar. A
posse with bloodhounds is in pursuit"
After every railroad "hold-up" the
report comes that sheriff's posse
with bloodhounds has started on the
trail.
There are few bloodhounds in the
United States outside the kennels of
some dog fanciers and Uncle Toms
Cabin" The bloodhound" of the
south and southwest, the blood
hound" that does all this trailing in
the newspapers and trots along with
every sheriff's posse is not blood
hound at all. He is usually a hound
and has blood in him, but that is as
near to being bloodhound as this
dog gets. Often he is a foxhound.

der the impression that all one had
to do was to let borzoi see a coyote
and the latter's death warrant was as
good as executed. The result was
natural failure. because. like a bird
dog, the wolfhound must be trained
to the work. American purchasers
have no occasion to worry about that,
however, for as the dogs high cour-
age is the result of education and en-
couragement, without it they are do

Did you ever hear of the Bug Line
Telegraph Company of Maine?" asked
an old operator in one of the big
companies in Broadway, the other
night. when the operators were eating
all along the line, says the New York
Commercial.
1T is only ten miles long. and is

tinued. 1T was started just for con-
versation purposes by a couple of
young men in the valley. 1t was
about twelve years ago that line
was strung over the housetops and
through the branches of the trees.
The two young men began to talk TO
each other by signals, and then au-
other young man wanted to be put on
and circuit was made to his place
Gradually others came in until there
were about fifteen in the company.
Then they learned the alphabet
and got instruments, and had daily
and nightly conversations over the
wires Just for the fun of the thing.
Then the girls in the neighborhood
were let in on the scheme. Every
one was green in the business at the
start, but gradually they picked up
enough to talk, and in a year all had

Some OF these hounds are trained
from puppyhood to follow the scent
of man, just as some are trained to
follow the scent of dere, rabbit or
other four-footed game. Every man
has scent peculiar to himself, though
most men do not like to admit 1t. No
dog completely recognizes his master
without few sniffs by way of inves-
tigation.
Sometimes these "bloodhounds" are
clever in trailing a man If the scent.
which hangs close to the ground, has
not been dissipated or confused with
other scents. In most cases, though.
these dogs are vastly overestimated.
The owner of a pack naturally thinks
his dogs the greatest ever and insists
on the marvels and mysteries they can
smell out. A great chance Is taken
when man is convicted on the testi-
mony Of hounds nose.
In the matter of ferocity, these
"bloodhounds" are about as harmless
as kittens after their claws have been
manicured. These dogs would not
bite defenseless tramp. They would
rather run two days than fight half
a minute. A bulldog could whip a
yardful of these "bloodhounds" If he
could catch them.

In Kansas After the War.

After the civil war a Boston man
was stopping at the Planters house,
the principal hotel of Leayenworth,
Kan, and coming down to breakfast
late one morning he partook OF that
meal with the landlord.
well, Mr.. - said the landlord,
"how do you like our western coun'
try?"
81 like it very we'll" said the Bos-
ton man, "or would IL society here
were in more settled state"
Nonsense" said the landlord, "our
society is as settled as that OF Bos-
ton"
Just then a man named Anthony
burst into the dining-room and out OF
a back door, with man named Jen-
nison pumping lead at him at every
jump, and following him out into the
outbuilding in the rear OF the hotel.
How about society being as settled
here as in Boston?" said the Boston
man as he and the landlord crawled
out from under opposite sides Of the
table.
"I had forgotten about that Anthony.
Jennison matter" said the Landlord:
but II Doc Jennison has caught up
with Anthony that is settled by this
time."-Boston Herald.
