Fashion is very kind this winter to
the woman with a slender income or
the young girl with but small
amount of spending money, for there
are a great many styles Of simple
evening gowns that can he made at
home very successfully at compare
lively small expense. To begin with,
the jumper costume is strikingly we'll
adapted TO this purpose. A success
full frock lately seen, made in this
style, was of pale blue nuns yelling
with one of the new circular skirts
trimmed with two deep folds OF the
material. The jumper portion con-
sisted of two wide straps with the
fullness held in on the shoulder by
three deep tucks, stitched down to
yoke depth back and front. These
straps were edged with narrow blue
velvet ribbon and joined across the
front and back with five straps of the
same ribbon, trimmed at each end by
a tiny cut steel button. The draped

Ii Is not the intention of the Re-

Ring out 10 ioyous welcome.


Ring out IN joyous welcome,
A wild and glad refrain,
Your scented bells of hyacinths;
My love has come again.
Come forth shy valley lilies
With all your silver urns
Filled with their purest incense,
My soldier love retnrns.
Pearls Of the pendant snow drops
Round which the wild bee huns,
And lightly bending blue bells,
Look up, look up, he comes.
Lift sorrowful Narcissus
That pale, sweet face Of thine,
Forget the beauty oil thy love
To gaze while on mine.
. qaeenly rose, be gracious,
A poon of thee | crave,
Blush out all thy beauty
To welcome home the brave.
For e'er her time the lilly
Has reared her stately head
And, like snowy banner,
Her broad white petals spread,
And gracefully the fuschias
Sway on their fragile stems,
And gold and purple pansles
Strew at his feet their gems.
While still the violet fingers,
Her green leaves peeping thro',
Unwilling till she sees him
To shut her eyes of blue.
Sound all your fiery clarions
Thou war.like trumpet vine,
Thou thickly twining jasmine
And shadowy wood-blue.
Swing out your crimson torches,
Your white and golden stars,
To light my warriors footsteps
Returning from the wars.
Ye passion-hearted tulips.
Bloom gorgeously around.
And at his feetSAll peoples
Fling all your bright leaves down.
oh, linger, sweet spring blossoms,
And lengthen out your prime,
And all ye summer howrets
Come forth before your time.
Let all things bright and beautiful
La Nature be abroad
TO smile with me and welcome back
My soldier loye-my Lord.

Chicago, June 22.-Child's play re- duced to science was illustrated to- day on the famous South Park sys- tenn, consisting of twelve modern play grounds, where 1000 children of all ages engaged in games of various sorts in the presence of experts gathered here from all sections in attendance at the convention of the Fairgrounds Association of America. Chicago's playgrounds have opened the eyes of the visiting educators and municipal officials as to what park system, es- pecially designed for children, can be. Officers of the playground association believe that today's demonstration will give great impetus to the playground throughout the United States.

STOCK MARKET
AGAIN L|FELESS
FOREIGN AFFAIRS HAVE LITTLE
EFFECT
Period of stagnation Seems to Have
Set ln-Rise in London Cop
per Helps Amalga-
mated
BY Associated Press.


NEW YORK, June 1.-THE stock mar
ket dropped back today into the apathetic
condition which marked the opera tions
last week previous to the weekend re-
vival of activity. There was an effort on
the part of some of the professional in
terests to get back the stocks, the selling
of which made that spell of activity. The
slow and spotty rise in prices of today
was the result No extraordinary news
accompanied the rise and negative inter-
ference was drawn from the absence of
selling pressure such as might seem to
have been warranted by some of the
worlds occurrences.
The dissolution of the Russian douma
was disturbing influence, but foreign
markets seemed not to be disconcerted,
although the event had been rather clearly
foreSeen. There was some selling or
stocks here for foreign account just at
the opening, but the supply thus furnished
was not more than was demanded by
the uncovered short interest. The effect
was transitory on foreign markets, Paris
itself turning to the buying side In the
London market before the close of the
market there. 1t is suspected that per
ception of coming events in Russia has
been a prompting motive with the Bank
of France In its determined efforts to
build up its reserve of gold. Paris Sc
don, the Bank of England absorbing the
whole supply. JCerling exchange rose
fraction in Paris Foreign exchange here
touhced the highest level of the year The
local market showed no further signs of
construction today. Last weeks prepara-
tion for the heavy disbursements of Sat-
urday, including the Standard OIL diVi-
dend and the payment of an installment
of subscriptions to new Southern Pacific
preferred stock, would naturally give
place to some relaxation this week with
what distribution and rebanking of these
funds, but solicitude IS still felt over the
meeting of the July first requirements in
view of the low present condition OF the
New York banking surplus and the cer-
tainty that a considerable amount of gold
will be withdrawn in time to reach Paris
for the semi-annual settlement there. The
stock market was Indifferent to the re-
ported recall of .ne Japanese ambassador
as it was to the Russian news.
A rise in the price of wheat also was
ignored. The appearance of a published
Interview with the chairman of the inter-
state commerce commission was given
some significance on account of its tone
of tolerance toward contention for miti-
cation of harshneSs in the attitude of the
government toward railroads A few
stocks moved in response to special con-
dtions.

DOG CLIMBS TREES TO
CATCH BLACKBlRDS
Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
LONG BEACH, June 17.-'Lassie." a
white bull terrier owned by Col. H. M. e.
Schroeder of East Ocean avenue has
learned to climb trees and may be seen
any day clinging to the branches OF the
trees in front of her masters beautiful
home, barking at the blackbirds.
The dog mastered this feat as a result
of an antipathy which for some months
she has had toward the blackbird family
pursued one of the birds it flew at her
and pecked her nose.
The dog attempted then to climb the
trees and catch the bird. She was unsuc-
cessful, but by repeated efforts has ac-
quired the ability to 'skin up'' the tree
like cat.
