New Idea in Coat,

A charming three-quarter-leng
loose coat in brownish yellow liberty
velvet is a cross between a surplice
and a kimono shape. 1t is made in
one piece over the shoulders, that is,
the sleeves are part of the garment
proper. It has square yoke of heavy
lace and is opened down the back and
laid in inverted plaits, the space be-
tween the opening filled in with a
wide band of Irish crochet mounted
on white satin. About the bottom is
a wide band of the Irish crochet about
six inches deep, which is in turn
edged with three-inch band Of sable.
The lace runs down the sides of the
front, as does also the fur, which is
finished by full jabot of plated
mcusseline de sole.

wonders in the Peruvian world Com
mencing in Callao, it ascends the
narrow valley, of the Rimac, rising
nearly 5000 feet in the first fifty six

is made of embroidered batiste, with

The Gypsy Wind.

The gypsy wind goes down the night;
I hear him Tilt his wander call;
And to the old divine delight
Am I a thrall.

Along the hillways dim and deep!
Let those who will behind dull bars
Commune with sleep!
For me the freedom Of the sky,
Packed with a sense of mystery
And brooding dreamS
For me far subtler fragrances
Than the magician morn transmutes;
And minstrelsies and melodies
From fairy lutes!

Manufacturer Had to Meet Demand
~- of Savages.
A clockmaker discovered that a
rival was sending out large stocks Of
cheap clocks to the heart of Africa,
and doing good business with them.
He spent large sum in making bet
ter clocks and shipped thousands of
them to the same market. Strange
to say, his sales were small. although
his rival; turning out,a cheap and in
accurate timepiece, was selling all he
could make. Finally he found key
to the mystery. Sayages like noise.
The clocks made by the. first exporter
had particularly loud and aggres-
sive tick His competitor had made
better clock, but it was almost noise
less, and the savages would have none
of it. The next cargo of clocks which
the maker shipped to the Guinea coast
licked louder than anything ever
heard there, and they sold like pink
lemonade at a circus.
