= A Tragedy Of Love

Nov that is the position" sighed
Kitty. She leaned her pretty tear
stained face forward and sighed. Mrs.
chevenix laughed little. then

She was pretty little thing, Kitty
Gascoigne. A fair-haired fluffy little
person, with pair of appealing blue
eyes and a soft babyish face. She
was the wife OF George Gascoigne. a
man upon whom the powers that be
looked with high favor, man who
was climbing slowly but surely the
great ladder Of success.
Kitty Gascoigne and olive Chey-
enix had struck up warm friendship,
possibly because they we're such op-
posites, this woman who loved her
husband and the other woman whose
hirtations no man could number.
George used TO be fond Of me. -
continued the little wife; he was per
fectly silly during our engagement
and whilst we were on our honey
moon, but directly we got back to his
station he became absorbed In his
work-and even during this holiday
at Simla he studies blue books and
native reports-anything but me.

was. why doesn't he love me as
much?"

George Gascoigne was writing let

men would read with attention and

himself as one does who throws OF

something more than promotion-the

TRIBUTE TO REEDS GREATNESS
Best Minds Of the Country Attracted
to Maine Statesman.

Best Minds Of the Country Attracted
to Maine Statesman.
State Senator Goodwin was one of
the speakers on the day that the Maine
legislature set apart for the memorial
tribute to the late eminent native of
its state, Thomas Bracket Reed. In
the course of his remarks he said:
Mr. Reed never hurried, yet he
was always prepared. He never did
great act but that he seemed capable
Of doing a greater. He was possessed
to a wonderful degree of reserve
power.
THE Speakers room at Washing
ton, during his rule was the rendez-
yous of the brightest minds of our
country. Eminent scientists, famous
writer's, powerful financial magnates
and great social leaders, all found in
him a receptive mind and a sympa-
thetic listener.
HE was a philosopher, accurate in
his judgment Of his fellowman. In a
single sentence he could sum up the
foibles and weaknesses Of mankind.
Once, in the Speakers room, during
the quorum fight. Southern Congress
man came into the room, and told Mr..
Reed, with extravagant praise what a
g.eat man he was. that his ruling was
right, and only the stress of party
politics made him oppose the same.
Mr.. Reed received it all With his usual
politeness. and when the Congress
man had retired, he turned in his chair
and said: You want to beware of a
statesman when he begins to exude
molasses.

interrupted with low, mocking
laugh.

cold neglect that has killed my love,
and only my own self-resbcct that

the @iggest mistake in your life. A

COME OUT
Hundreds Coming From
 Dawson for the Rafflle

"Ma, Ma. where is my Pa?" That's what the republican campaign cry was to the democrats just 20 years ago. The democrats answered back in chorus, "He is going to the White House, ha. ha! hal"
 But that makes no difference in the great rafle at the Seattle, where a number of choice baskets are being rallied at 50 cents per ticket, 50 chances on each basket, which contains the best on earth for the house or cabin.
 Each basket contains:
 One bottle blackberry brandy, good for the stoppage of earthquakes in your lower stomach; l bottle creme de menthe, good for your upper stomach; bottle of German Kimmel, good for that tired feeling; l bottle of Eau de Vie cognac, good for that sluggish health; bottle Tsasi & Co.'S Jerex de La Frontirue-Spanish sherry, good for enriching that thin, watery, cold blood; l bottle rock candy and rye whiskey, good for a cold; bottle Manhatten cocktail, good for an eye opener; 1 bot tie ye olde time Scotch whiskey, good for your grand sires and good for all; | bottle Turagmia Port Oporto, good for those who are and helps those who are coming; l bottle Green Seal, extra dry, good to make you more dry.
 In additio7, the lucky number gets F bottles of Barthel's beer, good for Barthel and all others.
 The basket alone is worth, as a grip, about s5. The raftle will take place every day until all the eight baskets are sold.

The Gaze for
japanese Art

II VERYWHERE is the influence Of
r japanese art to be seen, and
IL most particularly in those things
that have to do with the fair sex.
Already society women are arranging
for series of japanese teas TO be given
during the summer, and one wealthy
woman is having a japanese garden
built AT her Newport home. 1t is an
exact copy of one of the loveliest in
Japan. and to make it very realistic she
has imported a quantity of dwarfed
plants and trees, with quaint lamps and
buildings besides. The latter have been
sent over in pieces and will be put to-
gether by an expert on the grounds.
The expense of securing this miniature
garden was far from small. but it is
something that will always be worth
the price. from an artistic point Of view,
at least.
In the field of ornaments another Jap
anese novelty has made its appearance.
This is a heavy seal ring for milady's
little finger, and the fiat space is carved
with a Japanese inscription which is
supposed TO bring good luck and hap-
piness. These rings are made of very
rich yellow gold; they are carved by
natives by hand and supporting the seal
part there is usually a pair OF quaint
figures carefully and wonderfully
wrought of the metal. The japanese
and Chinese are very clever at this sort
of thing. and the delightful part of il
is that the rings can be purchased for
a very small price. They are becoming
so popular, however, that the ever-ex-
pected end viii come-that, is n raise
in price and poorer workmanship
Another oriental ring that is striking
and beautiful is of Burmese gold and
has the figure of a child carved of the
metal II is about half an inch high
with its arms raised directly above its
head. and in them it holds a huge fresh
water pearl. The idea is certainly
quaint and unusual enough TO make it

wei as paiates, long for something
refreshing, and as green salads ap-
peal to the epicure. so does a dainty and
clean perfume attract an equally dainty
woman. Violet and heavy scents are
well enough for the winter months, but
when the air begins 10 feel close there
is nothing quite so delightful as an odor
OF lavender to clear away undesirable
STIFFNESS. At this season OF the year
many women make dozens of sachets
filed with lavender and stow them away
among their lingerie and other belong
ings, so that when an article is taken
out IT watts a delicate perfume that is
positively refreshing and stimulating on
warm days. Too much lavender is a
dangerous thing-dangerous in the fact
that IT becomes obtrusive and finally
sickening; but it is possible to have the
perfume very delicate II the right pro-
portions are used, and there is a toilet
water that might be termed the dew of
heaven. so dainty and delicious is 1t.
The first gray hair a woman discovers
in her head brings a positive shudder
for the future. and she conjures up
visions OF whitened locks prematurely
turned. Some women lose the coloring
matter in the hair earlier than others,
and without any apparently good reason
there will appear stray hairs that are
perfectly white Now, no woman wants
these TO be discovered by her devoted
frineds, and so the woman of today
counts among her toilet articles a little
cake of substance which Is of the nature
Of dye, but yet could not consistently

The New Lucky Stone

stone to wear this year II one

can offer. The style of the stone does
not count-it may be a cabochon, a
beautifully cut stone. or a star sap

Set in ring, it is by far the most con-
velient way to follow the decree of
fashion; but there is such a vogue To-
long chains that many women are
choosing them studded with sapphires.
These chains are no longer worn in
the simple fashion that they seem 10
have been designed for, but the wo.
mar OF the day loops ore across her
bodice; she crosses and recrosses il over
the decollete corsage, or she winds i
seX eral times around her throat with a
long pendant piece. In this way the
stones are brought closer together. and
the effect Is 1nassing of tie blue.
Blue may be for luck, but fox brown
IS the fashionable color at the moment.
IL was first introduced in Paris, AMI
between the time il made its bow and
its acceptance over here very few days

reason viii not become common. and ar
present 1t can be had only in the most
expensive fabrics. The tone is accu-
rately described by its name, for it Is
that golden, clear brown that distin-
guishes undyed fox fur. Compare
lively speaking. the shade is a light
one and is wonderfully beat tiful in the
soft shaded voiles and aeo.ians
Some dressmakers have an idea that
these shaded materials show best when
made up perfectly plain. but the French
are cleverer in their handling. and they
never think of leaving the skirt with
out tucks or gathers IN some suitable
arrangement. In one OF the cho-uses OF
the latest musical comedy there are
eight young women who wear shaded
violet costumes. and the skirts OF these
hang from the waist TO the feet with
out a single break. The effect is very
bad. for the eye Immediately catches
the merging from one tint to another,
thereby spelling the effect. which would
have been beautiful had the skirts been
laid in horizontal tucks. so that the
changes from one tint to another were
not discernible. Small as the differ
ence is, II only goes TO show that the
French grasp of things pertaining TO
dress is keener than almost any other.
