White Evening Gowns

White evening dresses seem to hnd
their best expression in nets and crisp
soft organizes. They are seldom touch
eaNwith any color. although the fashion
Of wearing a simple bow Of dark crim-
son velvet at the throat is very pretty.
Little knots of ribbon velvet snuggle1
under folds Of lace and chiffon are also
effective. but these are exceptions, the
all-white costumes being preferred.
Chiffons. mousselines and the fabrics
of silky texture are weighted with pail
lettes Of silver and gold; the opalesceht
effects, gold and delicate hued paillettes
are also smart and have their uses They
are used extensively on costumes Of
black. the dark color setting them of 10
excellent advantage. All black evening
costumes are the highest expression of
chic, and all are trimmed, more or less
with dead white and cream laces used
in combination.

THE GENTLE SEX s
Guests Who Read

The incest kind of bookcase to put in
the guest room is one of the small re-
volying species. Stock it with maya
zines and books. and place on it a good
reading lamp.
In selecting the books bear in mind
that if the average guest doesn't pine
to read George Herbert's poems and
Daily Thoughts" neither is he or she
certain to crave a restricted diet OF
Laura Jean Libbey, Mrs. Southworth
and their illS. Choose the books TO
suit a variety of tastes, and let there
be some light and frivolous. some
grave and serious. some bright and
chatty and surely some on travels.
One of the most "howey'' guest
rooms the writer ever spent a night in
was in a dear old house in Concord,
Massachusetts, where, in the quiet half
hours reading before retiring, she
made the acquaintance of the first
time of that charming little volume OF
Stevenson, "Virginibus Puresque." Let
it be noted as good choice for the
room where the passing stranger stays
But people don't visit to read, you
say. Perhaps not. Yet scarcely a
visitor but has preference for a lit
tie quiet reading in his or her own
nook, and can appreciate the rest such
casual dipping into bright books gives
Besides there may be sleepless hours
of the night made endurable in this
wise.
The lamp is better than high electric
fixtures, and the little revolving book
case best because it can be pushed
about the room.

If There's an Invalid

DO not bring any unpleasant news or
Giscordant family affairs into the sick
room.
If asked to read the newspaper read
only the cheeriest news.
Do not leave any soiled dishes OF
linen minute under the patients eye.
Food that might be eaten later should
be taken away and fresh food brought
later.
DO not forget to remove all flowers
from the room at night, and never
leave flowers in the room after they are
withered and decayed.
Limit visitors to fifteen minutes or
less. as an invalid is easily tired. Warn
each visitor to carry sunshiny face
and only CHEEKY news.
DO not attempt to quiet the patient
for the night until you are assured that
the household is at rest, for the patient
must not be disturbed.
Breads for the invalids use should
be pulled" or taosted and stale.

Some preachers. as well as n great
many church members. seem TO think
that religion is one thing and morals
another. Preachers discuss the Cos
pei plan and expound creeds and dog
mas. The church members go TO
chr.rch and observe all the rules and
regulations Of the church, but both
seem to forget that a good Christian
will be a good citizen in business, so
cial and political life No greater
mistake was ever made. The man
who has religion will be moral. He
will carry his religion from the church
into his everyday life. He can be
trusted In a business transaction, in
the store or In the Office. just as much
as he can be trusted In the church
edifice He viii conduct himself In
the home, in the social gathering. In
the place of amusement with just as
much decorum rs he will In the
church. lie will be as conscientious
regarding his vote at the polls as he is
about his ballot for pastor. The
church needs such men inst as much
as the world needs them, and a little
more II the church is to do the world
real good.--Christian Work and Evan.

Grent nemonstration I'm obto.


Ohio has never had such a demonstra-
ton in behalf Of the Junior Christian
Endeavorers as was that In connection
with the state convention recently held
at Tlfin. One afternoon at o'clock a
procession was formed in front Of the
Methodist Protestant church. The
Junior o. L. A. NJ. juvenile drum corps
headed the line. Then followed car
rlages and automobiles, in which rode
the state officers. After them came a
long line of boys and girls. followed by
a company of well drilled boys clad in
white, with wooden guns. This process
sion marched through the city streets
out to Rickly chapel, at Heidelberg
university. The citizens came out on
the sidewalks and watched the process
sion Of children with great interest. At
the chapel a splendid programme OF
music, fancy flag and marching drills,
together with recitations and a story
by Miss Frayser, was given TO a large
and enthusiastic audience. This exer-
else Is called 1.-THE Juniors Love Of

executed, and in perfect keeping with
the general programme Of the conven-

BILLIONS FOR
new BUILDINGS
Greatest Building Boom in
Worlds History Now
On

Never before in the history OF tha
world has there been such boom in
building construction as is now taking
place in the United States. From all
parts Of the country reports are COM
ing in which show that billions Of doll
lars are being spent IN the endeavor
to provide homes for population
which is increasing by leaps and
bounds.
Chicago is enjoying boom without
parallel In the history Of that city,
Baltimore has Just been celebrating its
remarkable rise from the ashes Of the
great fire. San Francisco bids fair Ia
excel Baltlmore's record New York
is constructing new sxyscrapers rep
resenting investments amounting to
500 000,00O while in the city and out
lying boroughs builders are expanding
an average OF Sl500OO,0O0 year IN
hotels, apartment houses, dwellings,,
etc. The total number OF buildings
throughout the country is close to H.
100000, valued at nearly $4,000 900 900
The materials used I'm many OF the
new buildings are Of such a hlmsy
character that In spite Of all efforts,
the terrible fire waste Of this country
has continued unchecked, until II now
averages $500 600 a year. The Ma
tional Fire Protection Association, in
an endeavor to reduce these losses
makes an urgent appeal to all inter-
ested to cooperate IN bringing about
better conditions by adopting inn
proved methods OF construction; Il
also recommends that municipalities
pass ordinances involving the adoption
OF an improved building code along the
/ lines OF this building code recommends
ed by the National Board Of Fire Tn
derwrlters.
The need Tor such ordinances was
/ tragcally shown in the recent COLI
lapse OF a concrete garage while in
course OF construction at Mlneola J.. I.
Five men We're killed and eight badly
Injured. II was learned after the col-
lapse that some Of the men mixing
the concrete refused to go on, sayiVs
thaE. the proportion OF cement miHed
with the gravel and loam was not
enough to solidfy II. Workmen fad
that the work was being rushedfwith
such haste that sufficient time wtls not
allowed for the concrete to harden
People are beginning to ask. When Il
this sort of thing going to stop? Since
the collapse OF the Darlington Hotel
IN March, 1904. the exceedingly treach'
erous nature OF concrete, unless mixed
IN strict accordance with the formula
Of standard engineering, has beer
shown IN similar collapses all over tn
country. The situation Is becoming 81
serious. especially in view OF the vas
amount OF money being put into new
buildings that the International Con
gress OF Architects. at a recent meet
ing in London adopted the followin
resolutions;
That an inquiry into the cases 9
failure Of reinforced concrete and thei
} causes would be most desirable.
z That where reinforced concTete e. r.
/ tended TO be fire-resisting the great
est possible care must be taken as t
the nature Of the aggregate and Il
size, and also as TO the protection o
the steel.
