Quite ure of winning 100 kroner,
the two young fellows attired them
selves in their s%econd-best yachting
suits, and placed the very best in a
water-tight valise which they fastened
to their boat. Out they shot into the
deep water in their fleet canoe. and
rowed until within a quarter of a mile
of the kings yacht, the Alberta. They
did some fine aquatic stunts with their
elegant craft, and when sure that Cleo
de Microbes antiquated friend was
looking, they suddenly upset the boat
and let themselves fall into the water
with the easy grace of sacks of flour.
eOf course King Leopold at once put
out a boat and ished out the gay Nor
wegians, while another lot of royal
salts righted the and gathered
in the various trinkets that had fallen
into the water.
The N~orwegians, in admirable
French-for they are scholars as well
as sports-told the mate of their eager
ness to thank his majesty in person
for saving their precious lives, and
some megaphoning was done on the
spot. AS a result, the king informed
the kingless horde that he would be
pleased to see them, and they were
logged aboard, and at one put in a
bathroom to dry, exchange their
clothes, and otherwise make them
selves fit for the royal EYE. After
brushing up, they again expressed a

The court marshal took the hint, it

glad to see them, and asked them to
take pot luck with him. They had all
the d%elicacies OF the season.. of course,
in addition to those of several other
seasons, and, besides, were permitted
to feast their eyes on pretty Cleo, who
sat opposite the king, so he could see
her laugh and make bread bullets and
shoot them at him through the Straw
that helped her suck the substitute for
Swedish punch, that the company was
indulging in. But oh! what a differ
ence when the king learned next day
that the upsetting of the boat, the res
cue. etc., was all a comedy, enacted to
mulct him out of a breakfast and to
mulct some one else out of 100 kroner.

Norwegians a peppery lesson On the
folly of boating without a proper
knowledge Of swimming" The sports,

There was a woman's missionary
meeting in a Brooklyn church and the
audience adjourned to a Fulton street
restaurant for luncheon. The place
began to buzz, the walters lost their
heads and order gave way to chaos.
1t was not a multiplicity of orders
that caused a total route of the wait

Here are a few sample orders that
the women gave:

buys wide girdles, made of every

few remnants of other delicate shades,
including the wine colors in which
may be mentioned cEartreuse, creme

she will want some champagne yellow
taffeta and a remnant of chiffon vel
vet. the exact shade of a sparkling
moselle. These shades are essentially
summe shades.
With these gay colors she can make
up girdle which she will trim with
buttons carefully culled from her
spring wardrobe. The buttons must
match. and if they do not match she
must tint them from her color box or
cover them with medallions which
she will embroider with her own

Costumes for Little Folks.

y For little girls the brown Holland
frocks are suitable. For quite small
children the one-piece dresses are
nice for morning wear, that is, a gar
ment cut without yoke and with no
seams excepting at the sides and
shoulders. The garment is fitted at
the yoke with box plails or tucks. and
it is very easy to make and just as
easy to wash. For Afternoon wear a
fine quality of brown Holland may be
used, made up in the little two-piece
dress, which has a long waist and a
short frill or plated skirt part below.
The afternoon dresses may be trim
med with the fancy linen braids or
with some heavy insertion or the idea
of colored bands may be used here
as well. A pretty little dress of brown
Holland recently had bands of a pref
ty plaid material stitched on to it to
relieve its plainness. The bands were
quite narrow, and, of course, cut on
the bias.

Simple Shirt Waist STYLES.

Revolutions in shirt waist styles are
gradually being brought about, both
as to style and color. More severe
lines are demanded. There is a very
little blousing in front and the gar
ment is made as tailory as possible.
Even absolutely plain shirt waists are
worn, radically different from last
years shirt waists, which required ev-
erything trimmed.
Embroidered shirt waists are still
very good; but the embroidery de-
signs reflect the spirit of the severe
styles, and are simpler-more dots
and eyelets Joined in simple owen
tional patterns replacing the involved

Difference Between Swedish and Nor
Wegian Women.

Difference Between Swedish and Nor.
wegian Women.
Here are the characteristics of the
Swedish and Norwegian women, as ex-
pressed by the kaiser, who knows both
well. Crown Prince Gustav brought
back these character sketches from
Berlin:
The Swedish beauty is cast in a
timer, more esthetic mold than her
Norwegian sister. Her complexion is
lighter, blonder, roster. Her eyes are
generally pale and they have not the
eagle look of the Norwegian woman.
The Swedish woman is almost invari-
ably of a lovely disposition. She likes
to laugh and makes a good companion.
The Swedish woman does not dress in
the stately fashion of her Norwegian
sister, but has undoubtedly much
taste. She likes pretty, soft colors,
and adapts herself easily to the die
tates Of Dame Mode.
'"I never saw a v%oluptuous looking
Norwegian woman" said the kaiser,
while l have seen many Swedish wom-

ness. The Norwegian woman is tall.
muscular, lean; her complexion is
fresh, though dark, and she has regu.
lar features. The color of her hair
is between blonde and brown. Sagacity
and energy are painted on her coun-
tenance and her eyes look sharp. When
| see a young Norwegian woman of the
middle classes walk through a room i in
her long, trailing wooden dress with be-
coming ornaments, she always reminds
me of the princesses of the northern
saga. She has so much dignity"
