The surplice effect, so much in
vogue at present, and SO generally
becoming, is shown to good advant-
age in this waist of lavender nuns
yelling. Under-arm and shoulder
seams are used in the shaping, and
a lining in the upper part, forms a
support for stirring. The waist
crosses in front, below a dainty chem
isette of lace. The full sleeve is
gathered into a deep pointed cuff,
that fits the arm snugly. China silk,
crepe de Chine, and the mercerized
waistings are all adaptable. The
medium size will require two and FIVE
eigths yards of thirty-six inch mater
ials.

MEN OF BUSINESS RECOGNIZE
ADVANTAGES OF ACETYLENE.
Famous Summer Hotel, the Grand
Union of Saratoga, Has Installed
This Best of All Artificial Lights
Means Increased Comfort and
Health.

Saratoga, June 27-The very name,
Saratoga" brings to every mind
health.giving springs, unsurpassed
hotels and beautiful drives. 1t
has been for many years the
Mecca for all who admire nature,
enjoy good living, and are searching
for health, or are simply taking va
cation.
The Grand Union, the largest sum-
mer hotel in the United States, set
among green trees with its long wings
enclosing a court with fountains and
flowers, grass and trees, music and
light, is throughout the season throng-
ed with guests. With the progressive
spirit always shown by its manage
ment, the Grand Union has again add
ed to it's attractiveness by introduc-
ing acetylene gas to make still more
brilliant the evening hours. The ge-
NAL proprietors believe in furnishing
their guests with the best of every
thing, and now, after investigating
and finding that Artificial Sunlight
can be had, they have installed COM
plete acetylene gas plant to produce
it, and have connected upwards Of six
thousand acetylene burners in and
about the house and grounds to this
little gas plant
Like many discoveries Of recent
years, which are coming into popular
favor, acetylene, one of the most re-
;c Gin y,1x nrndtINn1 If is
adapted for use wherever artificial
light is needed and the necessary APP
paratus can be understood and oper-
ated by anyone.
The generator in which Acetylene
is produced by the automatic contact OF
carbide and water might be termed a
gas plant, as it performs all of the func-
tons of a city gas plant. The acct
ylene generator can be purchased for
few dollars and in any size, from
one adapted to furnish acetylene to
ten or a dozen burners for cottage,
up to the large but still simple ma
chine such as is now furnishing
Acetylene for six thousand burners
in the Grand Union.
Outside Of large cities the use of
Acetylene is quite common. The
owner of the country home now de-
mands running water, gas and other
conveniences which few years ago
were considered as Injuries, and
acetylene gas has met his require
ments, and gives him a better and
cheaper light than is ordinarily fur,
nished in cities.
1t is we'll known that rooms lighted
with Acetylene are more comfortable,
because cooler, and more healthful be-
cause the air is not vitiated.

have thirte--1 stripes alternate red and
white; that the Union have twenty
stars, white in a blue field, and that
on the admission of every new state
in the Union, a new star be added,
such addition to take effect on the
next Fourth Of July after each admis-
sion. This was adopted in April, 1918.
Through five wars has our Star
Spangled banner been borne victor

and 1872, our standard gained the re-

By purchase, exploration, annexa-
ton and conquest, our territory has
been increased until the United States

and power, until the stars on our flag
now number forty-five, and as we have
five territories besides our recent
acquisitions, it is likely that our stars

AMERICAS DAY IN JAPAN.
Celebration of the Fourth of July at
Yokohama.

Yokohama.
Why patriotism should grow with
absence is question for cynics and
philosophers and would be answered
by them in differing way, no doubt.
That it does so grow is fact, and
one well exemplified by the attitude
of foreigners in the far East toward
their national holidays.
The days of the British guardian
saints, st. Andrew, st. George and st.
Patrick, often forgotten at home, are
each marked by some especial festiv-
ity here, says a correspondent, writ.
ing from Yokohama. The French col
onies seem to double in numbers on
July IA, while the attitude of Ameri
cans toward the Fourth is quite in
contrast with their usual feeling al
home. That uproarious birthday OF
the republic whose celebration in our
cities is apt to drive the average mid
die aged American born citizen to
country solitude is here anticipated
for days with real delight and cele-
brated with genuine enjoyment.
One of the most topsy-turvy things
about the earth's other side, perhaps
is THE fact that it never rains on the
Fourth. So says tradition; and ira
dition has been justified, in Yokohama
at least, for ten years.
Early in the morning sounds the
old familiar popping of firecrackers-
but it is intermittent merely and one
can breathe without inhaling brim
stone. All along the streets, over the
gateways, flags and flying, at each
gate swings the Stars and Stripes
crossed with the Japanese, the
French, the German, the Italian, Dan
ish, Dutch and most satisfactory OIL
all, the British 1ag-"celebrating the
day we got rid of you," as the Eng
lishmen say with smiling humor.
About noon day fireworks are set
off all over the town, bombs that ex-
plode high in air, liberating fanciful
sky until it seems full of creatures,
pretty or grotesque-a cat, a bird, a
balloon, a horse, tiger, a Japanese
knight upon a rollicking charger. On
the streets everywhere. watching
these flying things, are children; the
Japanese with their gay kimonos and
butterfly bows, the English in shocked
frocks, the Americans in soft muslins
with ribbons-the little faces all
turned skyward, the little lips all
forming "Ohsi" or "Ahs"

then the eye became great blazing
headlight and the rumble swelled to
the crashing thunder of flying wheels
heavy laden. The Dominion Limited
was coming west.
There came two frightened snorts
from the engine whistle, a series oil
screeches as the brake shoes bit the
steel. and a confused whirring that
told OF reversed drivers and an open
sand-box. Then the long train, with
humping of drawbacks, came to
stop at Victoria Siding.
Every one aboard seemed to be In
terested in this sudden change from
the noisy, swinging rush coastwards
to the calm, dense stiffness OF this
desolate spot. Late diners left their
coffee, tired travellers pushed back
their berth curtains, and the men in
the smoking compartment dropped
cards and stories.
They saw Flicker Brown calmly
swinging a red lantern. The brass
buttoned conductor saw him, too, and
lost no time in seeking him out.
What in thunder do you mean by
stopping the Limited at this forsaken
hole, and that with us twenty minutes
behind SCHEDULED" he, demanded, red
of face and putting from his dash up
the track.
"Orders," replied Flicker with unus'
ual brevity, and handed out message
damp from the copy press.
The conductor grabbed the sheet
and held it close to his nickeled Ian
tern.
"'Hold Victoria Siding until $780,"
he read. Now what idiot sends me
such an order as this? Why there's

THIS RAZOR CUTS GLASS.
Discovery of New Steel That Will Cut
Like Diamond.

A new steel that will cut glass like
a diamond, carve railway sandwich
with impunity, slash a knotty billet
of redwood and yet retain an edge
keen enough to accomplish an easy
shave is the latest invention of the
Sheffield steel makers.
The new steel is made by a water
hardening process, and is guaranteed
to maintain its keenness of edge long
er than any steel now in use. Files
made from this steel will last four
times as long as those made at pres.
ent, while in pocketllnives and razors
the new steel promises a durability
and keeness that the makers say will
prove q veritable blessing to man
kind
The steel is to be put on the mar
ket in July.
