A to short Sleeves.


The short sleeve Is not likely to De
quite so universal as 1t has been. IL
has had fairly long run. and, now
that it's novelty Is exhausted, 1t has NOT
much that is sensible to recommend II.
They need endless new frillings ana
a good deal of care, for crushed or
Soiled rufiles are not to be borne, ana
whereas long sleeve can, and nearly
always does, go quietly on to the wrist
and there as quietly stop, the short
sleeve cannot leave Off SO easily. 1t
must stop short with an outbreak OF
lawn or lace or net.
For general wear, therefore, the long
sleeve will probably be among us very
soon again; but afternoon dresses are
likely to keep to the short sleeve right
up to the cold weather, and also for
wear in the South. They are undoubt-
eddy smart. They also give an oppor-
tunlty for the display Of bracelets,
which the long sleeves nearly always
hide.
Besides. they are horrible as worn
by the masses. either the gloves being
poor or the bare hand and arm ugly.

In degenerate effort at a new effect
Of Opulent magnificence, and all Of 1t

impression which Versailles makes, IN
til the tourist has visited the palace and
IS lost in imaglng mentally all the
sp.eadOr Of its long ago, the formal GER
cmony of the reigns of Louis XIV. and
XIV, the courts of Maintenon and Du-
barry, of Marie Antoinette and her friv-
olous ladies, who knew no better than
to dance and sing and play at living
while the people starved. Then the Gu
rIously elaborate surroundings seem
more reasonable more in keeping. And
when the visitor enters into the deep
reccsses Of the wood and hears the
nightingale singing-the nightingale
which they say sings not Of sadness but
Of joy in a newborn consciousness OF

Finally, near Rouen, on hill rising

the well-known statue Of Jeanne dare,
which depicts her in armor, with hands
folded, posed beneath the vaults Of u

There Is little Of interest between
I:ouen and Dieppe. The road traverses
a cheerful and pretty district where

Judkins Followed Directions.

William Allen White, the Kansas ed
itor, tells in IIarper's Weekly a tale
of the trials Of young reporter. His
editor had given him instruction In the
first principles of making a newspaper
story: ''Tell in the first few lines what
your story is about. Give the substance
ut once Then follow with Il recital of
the facts, and conclude with interviews
with the people concerned. That Is the
only orderly way of writing your story"
The new man gave close attention to
this lesson, the result of which was that
he handed In that night news item
which read as follows:
Rufus jenkins, a carpenter, slipped
and fell in Vine street yesterday, and
sprained his ankle badly.
"Mr. jenkins was walking along Vine
street, when suddenly his feet slipped
from under him and he fell, sprainlng
one of his ankles.
when seen by reporter he said,
4 was walking along Vine street. when
in some way my feet slipped from I'M
der me, and l fell heavily to the side
walk. spraining one of my ankles
"Mr. Frank Fuller said, I was walk
Ing behind Mr.. jenkins on Vine street,
when l saw him slip and fall to the
sidewalk. When l assisted him to arise
he told me that he had spralned one OF
his ankles
"Dr. Thomas Rich, who attended Mr..
jenkins, said, MIR. jenkins had badly
sprained ankle, due to a fall in Vine
street. He will be laid up for some
time
"Mr. jenkins could not attend last
nights meeting Of the carpenters union.
The president, in converting the meet
ing, expressed regret that Mr.. Jenkins
could not attend, as he had slipped and
fallen in Vine street, spraining one Of
his ankles"

Under the Yoke.

New occupations for American wOm-
en- are frequently described In the
household magazines. Meantime many
women Of the Old World steadfasty
cling to their old tasks. A traveller with
good eyes may see in a single summer
day In Belgium enough to make him
wonder what are really the boundaries
Of "woman's sphere"
At five O'Clock In the morning he
may see a red-cheeked old woman, Il
rude harness over her shoulders. pull
Ing, with big dog for helper. a heavy
cart of vegetables three miles from
garden to market. The cart holds sew
eral bushels Of potatoes, carrots, cab
bages, topped by a great bundle of dew
sprinkled roses; and before the woman
and the dog trudge home with it again.
everything will have been sold.
Our traveller may come upon two
muscular women transferring a load of
coal from sidewalk to cellar. shoulder
ing the baskets as easily as men would
do. If he fingers to watch them finish
their task, he will see Il girl Of sixteen
swing wooden yoke over her Shout
ders. and carry pail after pail of water
from the town pump, two squares
away. for the scrubbing clean of the
dusty sidewalk
Three women toss bundles Of oats
upon high cart, and themselves drag
1t up from the field to the yard. where
the grain is to be threshed, and where
later they will build the straw into
symmetrical stacks.
A great herd Of cows cluster round
the mixers in the field. and from the
group the talk and laughter Of girls
mingles with the sharp whistle of the
milk In the pals.
So, in the little kingdom of Belgium
where wages are low and taxes are
high-women toll at what we have
come to consider work fit only for men.
But it must be said that they do not
look unhappy under the yoke. Perhaps
the freedom Of farm and market and
street is really better for their peace
Of mind than the too much kitchen"
which often makes our more fortunate
women weary in body and depressed in
spirit.-YOuth's Companion.

Every visitor to Paris Is Interested IN
che Bourse de Commerce, or old Corn
Exchange, and the futed Dorlc column
relic of Marie de Medici's palace. From
here 1t Is a step to the Bank Of France,
with precious cellars stocked with dia-
lnonds and bullion carefully guarded.
Then comes the garden Of the Palals
Royal. Where Is the splendOr always
associated with this romantic name
Here Is revealed tragedy of departed
glory. There Is a promenade beneath
small shade trees; there Is basin OF
water which does service as fOun-
tain; there are one or two flower beds.
There are sculptures, too, and in the
afternoon, when the band Is playing,
the court takes on somewhat OF fes-
tive air. But by morning light, when
nearly deserted, 1t Is dreary enough.
The trinket shops around Its borders
show cheap and tawdry wares. The
cafes which occupy the second floor are
good for their inexpensive kind. Here
Is the entrance to the old vaudeville
theater of the Palais Royal. In the
garden are occasional benches. 1t would
be interesting to stay until noon when
the little cannon placed behind the
statue of Eurydce is fired automatical-
ly by means of a burning glass.
An essential element in the charm Of

larger flower markets, at the Madeleine,
In the Place de Ia Republique and on
the Quai aux Fleurs, are supplemented
by the flower kiosks scattered at inter-
walls along the boulevards, by the big
baskets of blossoms which one sees car
ried on the backs Of men and women
porters, by the bouquets of flower girls,
and the gorgeous window boxes which
light up by day the Avenue de rOpera,
the Rue Royale, and the Rue de la
Pax. Paquin's windows fairly flame
with living color. The naples in the
gardens of the city have put their
corals on" The lilacs wave their pur-
pie plumes. The acacias are all out In

their "mimic chandeliers" Flowers are
so cheap that anybody can afford to buy

Many countries have contributed to
the splendor Of that palatial edifice Of
art and pleasure, the Opera House.
Marbles from Italy, from Spain. from
Scotland and from Sweden embellish it.,
from Finland even, and from far Alge-
ria. In front of 1t great bronze can
delabra stand. The facade Is beautiful,
and there are interior glories OF red and
gold, of mirrors, starry ceilings, spark
ling with rows of lights that look like
