suit material of the season, although
that does not mean that other materials
will not have their innings.
OF the figured yoiles and mohairs
we have often spoken, but new things
are shown in these materials every week.
For practical service the one-tone mo-
hair with invisible checks or stripes ara
perhaps the first choice among the
figured patterns, and the same may bs
said of the voiles, though veilings in
charming color combinations are on
ever hand.
The fine one tone voiles with invisible
check or with tiny drawn thread check
are selling exceedingly we'll, particu-
larly in the dark blues and blacks, and
this drawn thread check is, by the way,
one of the specialites of the season. 1t
is always in one color, the surface
checked of into small squares by the
space of missing thread, and is shown
not only in the wool and silk voiles but
also in cottons and linens.

that husbands and wives in the con-

to cease those little amenities when

scrupulous in maintaining toward out

regarding the intercourse Of teachers

of manner is easily fallen into, and
there is nothing, g the old provern

contempt. There is cordial and APP

This sort Of dignity should be striven

by those who are daily thrown with

nor high respect without it.

New York City.-What queer pranks
Master Cupid plays at times! He draws
his bow and lets his arrows by, and 10,
and behold, all the world pauses to look
and to listen. Love is such an old, old
story, and Cupid has been so long en-
gagged in his magic archery, making two
souls content with but single thought
and causing two hearts to beat as one:
that the ordinary. commonplace, love al
fair causes scarcely ripple on the vast
sea of life as it rolls on to the eternal
shores. But occasionally Cupid quite
outdoes himself. Apparently he becomes
impatient with simply performing the
expected, and twang, twang goes his
bow, and swish, swish go the feeting ar
rows. and the unexpected has happened
The rich, and the poor. the high and the
fresh bloom of summer are brought to-
gether in charming harmony. and at
such times the world likes to pause and
gaze on the romantic picture. 1t de-
lights to study the roseate hues, the
warmth and fullness of coloring, the
striking contrasts the brilliant lights
that CLINT and flash through the picture
and then it likes to wonder in soberer
frame of mind if there will be any darker
shades which the years will paint into
the picture to destroy the first flush and
glory of Cupid's daring work.
Cupid knows that love has universal
language, and that it is potent to over
come every natural barrier. He knows
that love pauses not to reason why. but
that it dares to do, and even die. it need
be, in its assaults on the strongholds of
the human heart. He knows that there
are no race or class distinctions, nor SO
cial conditions or barriers which love
cannot with apparent reckless ease
sweep aside. And because Sir Cupid
knows all this full we'll, he dares to draw
his bow and send his dart cleaving the
heart of a young man whose wealth is
counted in millions. whose social posi-
ton is of the highest Yale graduate.

A chapter in her life which had it's be

had an interesting sequel in New York
city recently. and reminds one OF the fact
that Pastor is not the real name of the
young Jewess. Her fathers name was
Jacob Weisslender, and about year
after their removal to London he was d.
yorced from her mother, and all trace
of the man was lost.

| Mrs. Weisslender married a man
named Pastor. and Rose took her STEP

new type of locomotive Witch has been
ordered by railroad making its head
quarters here. If it does all that it's
makers promise for it., this locomo-
tive, which is revision Of the Dissel
engine, will revolutionize transporta-
ton.
The locomotive, or, really. power
house on wheels, is entirely different
from anything now in use. The cost
of operating it will be less than one
calf the cost of operating the present
type of steam engine. Fuel oil, costing
but three or five cents gallon, is the
only fuel that has to be purchased, and
there is no necessity Of erecting and
maintaining an expensive water tank
or coal chutes. The machine is what is
known as the four-stroke cycle. There
is compressed air reservoir. from
which the power is obtained for start
ing. This gives the piston it's first
strokes when it takes the air alone at
atmospheric pressure and temperature.
The second stroke congresses this air
and raises it to temperature of about
1000 degrees Fahrenheit. The third
stroke is practically an expansion, with
stroke. The oil is sprayed into the hot
air, the amount being regulated by
governors. During the first part Of this
stroke the combustion of this oil is car
ried on at a constant pressure for a
period that is regulated by the amount
of oil sprayed. The second part of the
stroke is practically an expansion, with
transference of heat and the fourth
stroke exhausts the gases.
