Prevailing Styles of the Season

Gray is in highest favor, this quiet color pushed into the foreground; London smoke, nickel, gull, the terms used to describe the quietest tones of the unobtrusive color-the quietest and most favored And white is the choice for combining with the gray, the result attaining what some one speaks of as grave chic A soft gray broadcloth of richest satin sheen, is worn with a waist of white net, and the hat a gray panne whose trimming is single yellow rose and one white plume. The quiet elegance is charm ing. all strong contrast avoided.
 In neckwear there is shown liking for combining heavy and light materi- als, a heavy lace with fine net very pretty chemisettes come in this style, and are worn unlined. The stores offer undersleeyes of net both lined and unlined, and the short-sleeved lady, if she have enough money, may easily solve the problem of piecing out the arm covering. A cream net ap- pears to be preferred, and the sleeves as 6 rule are not elaborately trimmed; A bit of shirring of the net, the use of A row or two of lace. Of course these can be made at home satisfactorily and at small cost.
 A pretty neglIgee is indispensable in my lady's wardrobe, and the one here illustrated is simple and pretty. It Is made of yelling and bordered with a rather broad band of ribbon, and cut with double handkerchief points, the sleeves formed of the upper ones. At the neck is a broad collar of heavy lace. and large soft bow fastens the dainty garment. The ribbon may be of the washable sort. or tackled on SO it can easily be removed when the sack needs washing.
 Though we have reached the point where we wonder we ever could have liked anything but the long. slender waist. we are called upon to contemplate very different lines. the Josephine dress with the waist way up under the arms. In the course of time we may grow ac- eustomed to 1t again. but it will take some hard effort. The dressmakers say we shall have to, that the short vsisted Josephines and high-vaisted p,reefoire styles are to oust the low bust and dip belts. The Empire coats have not proved so universally popu- lar as prophesied. and We think t quite possible that the Josephines and Dfrectoires may be. elassed with the ether much exploited style.
 There are. to be sure. some very beautiful Empire gowns 10 be seen among evening costumes One lovely model vas of eitron-yeIlou panne sm- hroldered in silver and bordered with snsrrov band of dark fur Ths short

 And Genial, who could refuse no one. promised. Long before he came home the next night there were sev. eral boxes delivered in his name at the front door. Mrs. Genial peeped into them and saw that there were some new shirts and collars. few neckties, some socks and other wear. ing apparel. A few days later a suit of clothes was delivered from the tailor and a hat box contained a brand-new straw. In celebration of this extensive wardrobe Mrs. Genial called up her dearest friend. Mrs. Curt, and announced that she and her husband would that evening make that long promised call. She also lei drop something about the lovely new clothes her husband had just got, and Mrs. Curt was prepared to be Invaded by a veritable fashion plate on that eventful evening.

REST MOST ESSENTIAL.
Must Be Periods of Perfect Rslaxa- ton That One May Gather New
 Force for Later Denand&

Rest Is absolutely necessary to every one. There must be periods of relaxa- ton. Moments when the mind anf soul and body gather force for contin- ued activity.
 The thing one should guard against is taking rest at the wrong moment. Herein lies most of the success of life resting sf the right time Too many make the mistake of undertaking to do more than they can shoulder They besin a task that does not belong to them They are oveT-zmbitious. and -hy that sin fell the angela h tfTine is ao more thxa they can do theT fai' utterly

My other clothes will last awhile yet, end maybe we can make hit with the hired man by giving him these things next Christmas."
 But you've got to have some new clothes" Mrs. Genial asserted. with a disappointed look in her eye. You're not fit to be seen the way you are. I'll 60 down town with you in the morning and we'll get something to- gether"

From "Cbe Ancfenf N1arfner' By Samuel Taylor Coleridse

Nor dim nor red. like Gods own head, The glorious sun npTist. Then all aveffed l had killed the bird That brought the fog and mist. Twas right. said they. such birds to
 slay
 That bring the fog and mist The fair breeze blew, the white foam
 flew,
 The furrow followed free. We were the first that ever burst Into that silent sea. Down dropt the breeze. the sails dropt
 down
 Twas sad aE sad could be. And we did speak only to break The silence of the sea. All in a hot and copper sky The bloody sun at noon Right up above the mast did stand. No bigger than the moon. Day after day, day after day. We stuck. nor breath nor motion. As idle as painted ship
 Upon a painted ocean. Water. water everywhere. And all the boards did shrink; Water. water everywhere. Nor any drop to drink. The very deep. did rot-O Christ. That ever this should bel Yea. slinay things did crawl with legs Upon the siimy sea,  About. about. in reel and rcut. The death fires danced ct night: The water. like a Witch-s oils.

eyes, if you have slate or paper so
that YOU can tell each other what figures
to use, without my knowledge"
In a moment Fred had procured
paper pad, and the game began.
Select a number" said Uncle Bob.
So Fred wrote down eight.
"Now multiply it by three
Fred wrote twenty-four under the eight.
"Now, to your result add one, or SUBJ
tract one from it, don't care which.
You choose said Lucy to Fred, SO
Fred chose to subtract, and he wrote
twenty-three under the twenty-four.
Multiply again by three" proceeded
Uncle Bob, and down went sixty-nine.
"Now add the number you tlrst
thought of, and tell me your result. ~
"Seventy-seven," announced Lucy
quickly.
Then" said her uncle, "you chose
eight
That's a good onel" exclaimed
Fred. Its better than Others OF the
same kind, because you let us add or
subtract as we chose"
Yes, and that time you chose to sub
tract" said Uncle Bob, smiling.
why, how did you know! " cried Lucy,
"Oh, that's part of the game. Now
try it again
So again they tried it. This time they
chose thirteen. Multiplying it by three
gave them thirty-nine. They decided to
add one this time, and then had forty;
Then, again multir lying by three and
adding the original thirteen, the hnal
result was one hundred and thlrty-three'
Then" said I. Gle Bob without
hesitation, "you cho thirteen .

The pencils of the two children fairly

"Why," cried Fred, q haven't written
down half the figures yet, let alone
add them"
Lucy stared at her uncle in blank
amazement. ''Are you an adding
machine?" she said.
"We1l, I'm not a dangerous adder,
he replied. MY answer is twelve hun
dred and seventy-fve, which is correct.
[ couldn't add a column of mixed-up tlg-
ures SO quickly; but I'll tell you how to
add any list of consecutive numbers that
begins with one. All you have to do is to
multiply one-half of the last number by
the last number plus one. Thus, IN adding
ali the consecutive numbers from one
to fifty, merely multiply twenty-five by
ffty-one. That gives you twelve hundred
and seventy-fve.

YOU have to take half of. Can you add
all the numbers from one to seventy

"Why, certainly. Half of seventy
three is thirty-six and one-haf One
more than seventy-three is seventy-tour-
So multiply thirty-six and one-haf by
seventy-four, and your result is twenty
seven hundred and one.
"Now," said Fred, please tell us how
YOU did that other trick
"All right, my boy. If your victim
has added one, his answer will end with
a figure three. In this case you must
mentally subtract that three and divide
the remainder by ten. which will give
YOU the original number. For instance,
if he tells you his answer is eighty-three,
lust take off the three, divide eighty by
ten and tell him he chose eight to start
with. But, on the other hand, if he
subtracted one, his answer will end IN a
figure seven. Then you must add three
and divide by ten. If he tells you his
final result is forty-seven you can safely
say, 'Ah, you added one, did you:
and by that time you can have mentally
added three to forty-seven and divided
