The waists one sees In the shops. this

maker to an equally fashionable patron
ess:
do not forget that your stock is
part OF your waist and have it in keep
ing.
IF your waist is embroidered have
your stock embroidered also.
IF your waist is of thin stuff over
handsome lining have your stock made
on similar lines OF chiffon over silk.
Remember that your girdle is also a
part of your waist and do not make the
grave mistake OF wearing a leather belt
with a waist that absolutely cries out
for a hand-worked girdie. Have your
girdles match, be they of English eyelet
embroidery or OF stuffed handwork. Let
them accord with your shirt waist and
don't forget that some Of the ioTefiest
girdles are made OF white linen ex-
quiSiteIy and painstakingly worked in
Oriental designs and colors."

ranged around the tops of the summer
fIounces are os a kind TO be taken off ir

connected by loops of the same. And
the whole is then set around the head
of a fiounce, wher it serves as a very
handsome finish.

" upon it's ribbon treatment. The ma
terial is a handsome silk challie with q
cream ground. upon which there are
small pink and green figures. The skirt
is one of those very full summer skirts
cut round. There is a deep fiounce
around the foot. And the top of. the
ffounce is gathered half dozen times
AT the head there is a trimming of ORR
entail lace, and this is caught in place
with knots Of pink ribbon. each knot
connected with the next one with a
strip of pink ribbon.

in the middle of each knot. If the gown

even though it be only a cheap figured

TO depart a little from the ribbons of
the season one may just touch upon the
skirts which are necessary to the sue
cess of the shirt waist There are. as
every skirt maker knows, two ways of
making the fun summer skirs. One
way is by making it of many geres,
And the other way is by cutting tho
summer skirt circular. In either case
the skirt is very full around the foot
One can do a lot with the gathered
skirts. which are tucked and gathered
around the hips and made elaborate by
their methods of being finished.

A boy named Burt Bergman was
the victim of an accident Monday
While playing at school he climbed a

thought it would be fun to shake the
fence. They did so and the boy fell
to the ground, with the result that
his right arm was badly broken
above the elbow. DIR. Lampsop was
called and set the arm. and did what
he could for the little fellow. The
doctor says that it is very question
able whether the arm will get entire
ly well, and that the chances are
that it will remain stiff.

Friday. While working among the
horses in his stables, two of them
became nervous and exciteable and
began kicking. Mr.. Jensen was
knocked to the floor, and the horses
continued to kick and pound. 1t
was wonder that life was not
crushed out of him, but he was final
ly pulled away from the enraged
beasts, and Doctor Lampson was at
once summoned. He found that
there were three bad scalp wounds,
that the right arm was badly
wounded, and that the left arm Yves
considerably bruised. Besides this
Mr.. Jensen was badly Jared and had
several minor bruises. He has been
con fined to his home ever since, and
until the last two or three day has
not been able to sit up. It is ex-
pected that he will be able to be
about in a few days. The horses
had always been considered gentle.

appointed by Leo XIII in June 1903, for
the purpose of consulting as to the best
method of preserving the famous frescoes
of the chapel especially the work OF
Michael Angelo on the ceiling. and to carry
out and carefully supervise any course OF
restoration which 1t might recommend. Be
sides the experts who belong to the Vatican
establishment. the cooperation of the out
side world was invited, and the commission
included members Commentators Boni
the director Of the Roman Forum; Com
mendatore Wales of the Spanish Acad-
envy, Prof. Gui of the Academy Of Saint
Luke and DR.. Ernest Steinmann.
The first report of the commission was
fairly favorable. The condition of the fres-
Goes was found to be no worse than that
and all that was necessary was the
strengthening of the hold of the plaster
upon the roof. This was effected by means
of old system, successfully employed
before in the Sstine Chapel itself. Metal
clamps, shaped, were driven here and
there through the plaster into the solid
roof. preventing any further detachment
of the plaster, and the creviceS between
the plaster and the roof and the inter
stices and cracks in the plaster itself were
filed with mixture of lime and finely pow
dered porcelain so that the frescoes present
an even and compact surface.
This work. delayed at first by the death
of Leo XIII and the of the Sistine
Chapel by the conclave, was finally COM
pleted last month. The question was then
raised as to the ACCESSIBILITY of attempt
ing to clean the paintings by the removal
of a coating of paste which had become
blackened by age. Careful experiment
showed at once that such an attempt would
be dangerous The work of the commits
sion has therefore, strictly limited itself
to strengthening the hold of the plaster and
