Passing of National Costumes.

From the London Graphic.
CORRESPONDENTS note a remarkable decline
In the number of national costumes worn
at the fshermen's bail at Beulogne. This.
however, is only a particular example Of a
general tendency. In the Valais. for In
stance, nothing of the national dress Is now
worn except the hat. In Berne the dress Is
retained, but a straw hat of the latest fash
ion is substituted for the old headdress or
black lace shaped like butterfiy's wings:
and every traveller to the continent Is able
to report some similar sign of the times on
his return Presumably-and indeed appar-
ently-it is social phenomenon. due to the
spread of democratic sentiment. The up
per classes do not wear such garb anywhere
except at bazaars and fancy dress balls; the
peasant classes are learning, In conse-
quence, to regard it as a badge of social
inferiority. and are leaving II on for that
reason. preferring to follow the modes. at
however great a distance.
1t is pity. for the modes as initiated by
provincial dressmakers are seldom pictu-
RESCUE; whereas the traditional attire of the
country folk In Switzerland, in FRANCE, In
Holland and indeed almost everywhere,
does really bestow grace upon the most
homely figure.

NEW YORK, September T. 1906.
AS quickly she escapes the shell of
winter the butterfly summer girl once more
leaps into plainish toggery. Not that the
stylish tailor things she Is now ordering
and wearing have any Of the somberness
OF the actual cocoon. but airy flounces and
floating wells are being swiftly dropped for
the more staid walking styles of autumn.
1t would seem, indeed, as IL fair woman
feared the decline of her charms. so anx
ious is she always to aid fashion In her
quick changes. which II not always better
ing. have at least the fascination of new
ness. Fine. new fresh feathers make fine
birds always. and though there Is a spe-
cial loveliness in airy summer fashions.
the first appearance Of the autumn girl is
made as welcome as the primal bud Of
spring.

tendency to repeat nature, for there are no

ish worry the energy she needs for her
work. and 50 effectually hinders her own
progress without accomplishing more than
the temporary embarrassment of anybody
else. She never seems to realize that there
Is room enough In the world for all whose
work is worth while. and that the distant
fields OF success are but sparsely popu-
lated.
OfAcourse there are men as well as wo-
men who are Jealous but that Is another
story" The man who Is Jealous of every
other man lin sight is something of an
anomaly. But woman who Is jealous
seems to have no power OF discrimination.
She utterly spoils her own life, and she en-
barrasses the life Of every woman with
whom she comes In contact Her failing is
so much a part of herself that you cannot
disassociate the one from the other even
in your imagination. In the expressive jar
gon Of the day. the jealous woman has the
jealous man beaten to a standstill."

A New Dinner Code.


No doubt the gentle reader has often
sighed for less formality at dinners-din-
ners out. we mean, where one has to be
mindful Of his manners. Who that has
tried to spear the last infinitesimal green
pea with a fork has not longed for the
convenience Of a spoon to gather up the
tricky little globules.
Eating peas with knife is delicate and
perilous art not to be acquired without
pains by unstable eQuilibrists. But eating
peas with spoon Is solid comfort Be
sure 1t will come. Look at the fish knife.
Nothing could keep it out when the Gu
mulatiye rage Of a hundred generations OF
diners who had fumbled with their planked
sole for score Of centuries boiled up and
said: Hang your etiquette! Give US
something to cut 1t within
The conduct Of dinner from soup to
coffee is hedged with petty restrictions
which make the judicious grieve and fill
Of ages fiction has grown up that talks
the thing, whereas every reasonable per-
son knows that eating Is what really mat
ters. Food Is not to be tOyed with and
laughed over, but to be taken in earnest
1t is no mere excuse for wit and inter-
change of anecdote. Who clogs the edge
of appetite with an epigram?
Take soup. for example. How the whole
world, including the gourmand, has been
put upon in this respect! Does any one
dare to affirm that Lucullus had the small
est regard for that absurd rule OF the mod
erns which says the plate shall not be
tipped to corner the residuary drops? Lu-
cullus was wise man. He lived to eat.
He would never consent to be so cheated.
1t is altogether probable that Heiioga-
baius managed his asparagus with the Inn
plements nature had given him, letting the
butter sauce run down his chin. Also.
casting ceremony to the winds, he would
grasp the chicken wing in his strong right
hand. bury his face in 1t. nor cease his
snothsome caresses until the Wand was
stripped bare AS John Bunyan says in
one of his rare outbursts of poetry-some
love the meat. some love to such the bone.
Alas, that etiquette should ever have set
itself against the sucking Of bones in COM

Long Vanished War Times.
Belted bodices with peplum fall at the
back also suggest the little peplum f1xings
beauty wore in long gvanished war times.
And apropos of these same rear falls. they
afford most facile and fetching opportuni-
ties Of reviving last seasons frocks, for
whether the bodice cut is empire or not the
peplum drop gives 1t at once modish
cachet. And now anent the short-waisted
empire styles-they are not downed far
from 1t. indeed. Many bodices still show
these influences in high belts, which, with
huge buckles at the front. give pretty
slim figure a most fetching look. But at
the back there Is the 'coattail-almost in
variably-with the waist line at the correct
human quarter. or else so short as to give
the weaTer the piQuant look of having out

question to be answered, for whole books

simple tailor one may be in the long. mod

sleeves are short-even above the elbows
and these and the fussy hats worn at once
mount simple gown to points of splendor
Some regulations for smart walking dress
given by a French journal are valuable
hints toward a correct appearance. First
the gown Is comparatively smple-black
brown, gray or in any other staid autumn
color. The hat may match, but it Is mil

repeats some dominant note in it.

MODERN EDUCATION
Three Professions Offer Oppor-
tunities to Farm Boys

The farm boys Of the west are
offered opportunities for education
with certain chance of employ.
ment, that should be taken advan-
tage of by every young man in the
west. There are three developing
professions now which have been
made possible by the Agricultural
colleges. The first is scientific farm
ing. The scientific farmer occupies
the same position relatively as does
the educated railroad man. He is
not called upon to exercise his
physical strength so much as his
head. There is demand for scien-
titc farmers from all over the
country THAT is greater than the
supply and the young man who has
qualified himself has the choice of
working for others on large salary
or working for himself. Then there
is the profession of road building.
The necessity for good country roads
is growing and specialists in that
line are certain of a position. Last,
but not least, is the profession of
forestry. The country is just wax
ing up to the necessity of scientific
forestry and men educated in that
line are certain of remnnerative
positions.
Many young men and young women
on the western farms have not bad
the opportunity to acquire more than
common school education. To
them there is but one college open,
Che agricultural college which pro-
vides short course in agricultural
manual training that is invaiuable
to those who intend to follow agri'
culture as a profession, Those farm
ers who are unable to give their sons
and daughters thorough education
at least owe them the opportunity
to secure the advantage OF the short
course in agriculture. Some OF the
best farmers in the eastern states
have been educated in this way.

Death Of Miss Roberta Latham.


Miss Roberta Latham, daughter Of
Mr.. and Mrs. j. B. Latham, of Little
Mountain, died on Wednesday morn
ing after a brief illness of typhoid
fever. She had been "a student of
Winthrop college during the past year
and was taken sick almost immediate-
ly upon her return home for the sum-
mer vacation. She was nineteen years
of age. She had just finished the
junior year at Winthrop and would
have been a senior next session. She
was bright girl with life all before
her and it does seem hard and al
most cruel from the human view point
that her life should thus be cut off,
but when we remember there is an over
ruling providence who doeth all things
well and cannot err we must conclude
that it is all for the best and we shall
understand after awhile when all
things are maddclear. We extend our
sineerest sympathies to the bercaved
ones.
