Ribbons are to be used extensively

The toes Of shoes are more pointed

The shaded sash is pale at the
waist, deepening into darker ends.
The festoon fiounce has been re-

latest headgear.

One of the favorite garments of the
winter Is the Directoire coat. with its

Indian conviets, Strange peIusion

The number of convlcts who have

small, the natural difficulties of al.

the islands are densely covered and

from the Indian or Burman mainland
stacles to the enterprising runaway.
Among a large number Of the con-
victs there Is a curious belief pre-.
valent that the Andamans are in reali-
ty part of the mainland of India,
the long sea voyage being merely
ruse on the part fthe Sirkar, which
endeavors to deceive them as to the
real position of the settlement by
making the ship that brings them go
round in a circle for several days be-
fore landing them in the harbor Of
Port Blair. Many Of them according
ly are firmly convinced that If they
can only succeed in making their way
through the belt of the jungle that
hedges them in they must eventually
find themselves back in their own
country and not even the disastrous
fate of the misguided few who from
time to time make the attempt, only
to perish miserably Of starvation or
by an Andamanese arrow, is sufficient
to discourage them or to destroy their
faith in this astonishing delusion.-

Black Beauty Patch Fad.

With the revival of quaint and pic

patches are in the air. The days when
women wore powdered wigs and fan
cy black patches on their cheeks,
chin or forehead are in a fair way to

There is a good deal of fascination

gram, but there is also prescribed
code OF meaning attached to them.
different places on the face indicated
different things.
Here are some Of the regular rules
Of a reliable French authority:
II a woman wore a patch at the cor
ner of her right eye she was head
over heels in love with somebody, for
that was the passionate patch.
The patch of devotion was worn in
the middle of the left cheek. When
worn on the right cheek il could be
construed as a sign of disappoint-
ment. A patch on the lip was trans.
lated "coquette." and needed no ex.
planatory marginal notes. A patch in
the middle of the chin meant pity.
The shapes were also significant.
The round patch was called the las.
sassin." This was a pretty strong
term, and it indicated the wearer's
determination to make things lively.
The square patch was less belliger-
ent, but not more cheerful. for re.
morse" was the meaning read into It
The triangular patch denoted pity
and the heart-shaped devotion.
These old rules make interesting
reading, but no one supposes that our
American girls would be so lacking
in common sense as to adopt them.

What Makes True Hospitality.

A born" hostess can set her guests
down to graham crackers. Jam and q
cup OF coffee, or even cold water, and
so delightful may be the conversation
so ready the wit, so kindly and so
warm with genuine friendliness and
selfiessness the welcome that each
one might say: with wheaton bread
was my spirit fed. Twas red wine
Quaffed with my thirsty soul"
1t is not money, but individuality
that determines the success or fail
ure Of the entertainer. That subtle
something which contributes to the
making of the truly hospitable hostess,
rests within herself and cannot be
measured by the wages that are paid
TO her cook, or by the sum spent for
flowers or professional entertainers,
writes the Advance.
When Hawthorn and his wife were
visiting in Rome. Italy, a young girl
studying art there, said to be the orig

OLDEST LIVING THING.
A Cypress Tree In Mexico over GOO
Years Of Age.

A statement recently made that
there are yews In England that are
the Oldest living things on this earth
is not correct.
These yews are old, very, very old.
there is no doubt about that. Some
Of them were stalwart trees even be-

botanists to be over twenty-five CEN

Buclas, which is 324O years old. How
Decandole arrived at an apparently
correct estimate OF the enormous age
of these living trees Is a simple thing,
and the principle Is doubtless well
known today to all. The yew. like
most other trees, adds one line (about
one-tenth of an inch) to its circum'
ference each year. He proved this
after an investigation extending over
several years. and we know now, 10U
years later. that his deductions were
correct. The old yew at Hedsor has

a little while in thought.
Yet II Is not so remarkable when
one stops for moment to remember
that given favorable conditions for
its growth and substance. the aver

death is merely an accident. Other

spring up near it, and perhaps rob its
roots Of their proper nourishment;
insects may kill 1t. floods or winds

Oriental Designs Are Still Popular.

Oriental designs and colors are
still very popular for embroidering on
the plain coarse linens. says the
Woman's Magazine. The linen must
be of some tint. for the work has a
crude effect on dead white.
Embroidered buttons have been ia
vorites this season with a certain few
people who look for extreme dainti-
ness in dress. These buttons have
silk or satin for foundation, and the
designs in delicate colors. embroid:
cred upon them.
A prime factor in cosy corner is
a cushion of green burlap, embroid.
cred with red raffia. The design is
of clusters Of cherries. The realism
of this pillow is further carried out
by having the corners finished with
large punches of natural looking vel
vet cherries on a green wire stem.

What One Woman Observes.

When fidelity becomes obligatory,
life holds but few pleasures.
How easy it is to blame people for
not being patient under affiiction.
Nothing reaches a woman's heart
so quickly as a mans desire to con.
fide in her.
While her whole nature may revolt
at a union. woman's tender heart oft
times prevents rupture.
Love, like the rose. is so sweet,
that one always tries to pluck it de.
spite the thorns. says the Philadel.
phia Inquirer.
We may all prate of moral strength,
but when temptation comes along
one is apt to fall down fiat.
We cannot bid love stay or depart.
