FANCY Blouse waist.


The fancy waist is in constant de-
mand and new and fresh designs are
therefore quite certain to find a
hearty welcome. This one is abso-
lHtely novel and can be treated in
various ways. In the illustration
white mercerized batiste is combined
with a simple all-over lace edged
with frills of Valenciennes, the effect
being as dainty and chic ais we'll
can be. All the many lingerie
materials are, however, appropriate,
and the trimming portion can be OF
embroidery quite as we'll as Of lace,
or it can be cut from the material
and embroidered by hand Indeed,
countless variations might be sus-
gested. In addition to all these uses
the waist makes an admirable one
for the popular thin silks and serves
equally well for the separate blouse
and the entire gown.
There is fitted lining which can
be used or omitted as material rem
ders desirable and the waist itself
consists of the front and the backs
that are tucked to form deep yoke.
The front portion of the trimming is
cut in two sections that are Tapped
one over the other and are held by
ornamental buttons, while that Of
the back consists of straight straps
and curved portions. The closing is
made invisibly beneath the box pleat
at the back, and there is choice
allowed of elbow or full length
sleeves.
The quantity of material required

EMBROIDERED BABY cAPs.

The baby caps cut from a straight
piece of embroidery, shaped at the
ends, and trimmed with lace around
the face. are very nice for the small
baby whose caps so soon become
rumpled, for they spread out fiat upon
their draw strings, and may be wash
ed and ironed with very little trouble.
The particular point in their con-
struction Is to shape the ends proper
ly SO that the cap FITS well about the

That in Autocrat's Own Regi-
ment--Nichola so Worried He
lost Two Nights Sleep.
ST. Petersburg, Russia.--A revolt in
Osowiec, one Of the great fortresses
defending the Polish frontier against
Germany, is reported.
An army officer intimated that the
mutiny is far more dangerous than any
previous one.
There are few civilians in Osowiec,
which ranks as fortress of the first
class and is thirty-fve miles north
west Of BialystolI
The Gar is quoted as saying that he
was so affected by the disloyalty Of the
Preobrajensky regiment, which he had
often h0nored by wearing its uniform,
that he could not sleep for two nights.
The Gar and court are so alarmed
by the spread of disloyalty in the
army that the Goreymyken Cabinet
probably will be dismissed soon.
1t became known that three battal-
ions of the Preobrejensky Regiment of
the Guards, His Majesty's own" de-
clared very recently that they would
support the Duma against the Govern
ment
This is a startling change of senti-
ment among soldiers who were savage
in putting down the uprising in Mos
COW last winter Besides, the regiment
is near the Gar, less than twelve miles
from Peterhof, in the big camp of the
Guards Of Kvasnoc-Selo.
As soon as the three battalions de-
clared for the Duma, a large force of
grenadiers, lancers, sharpshooters and
artillery Was thrown around them.
Two battalions recanted. The other
was disarmed and with six officers
was sent under escort to Medyid to be
tried by court-martial.
Other results accomplished by the
revolutionists are a mutiny of troops
at Samara, where order has been re-
stored the shooting by revolutionary
SympathiZers of an officer of the mu-
tinous artillerists in the streets of
Batum, and the transfer under strong
guards of the whole of the Eighteenth
Battery of the vladikavkaz garrison
to the Military Fortress at Kars.
Finding even the Guards disloyal,
the Government grows merciful 1t
has hurriedIy granted new trial to
seven men condemned to death at Riga
acquitted six others there and com.
muted the death sentences Of three
men who killed foreman of the Put
, iloff iron works here
Although the Peasants League was
forbidden to meet here, representatives
of thirty-six provinces met in Finland
and declared their support of the ultra-
radical Group Of Toll in the Duma.
In Altarak and Tauride Provinces
the peasants are abandoning the fields
and in Tula Province bands of peasants
are marching through the country
dragging the workers from the fields
and the domestic servants of the gem
try. The Governor General of the Bal
tic Provinces has again given landown-
ers permission to organize armed pa
trolls.
The news from the provinces show
that state of general anarchy is
growing. The efforts of the agitators
to induce the peasants working for
landlords to strike are meeting with
success.
