Blouse Waist.

The blouse that can be worn over
any pretty separate yoke or guimpe
as liked is one of the novelties of
the season that has been very heartily
accepted, and which has extended
vogue. Here is one that is adapted
both to the entire gown and to the
separate waist and that appropriate
ly can be made of silk or wool ma
terial and little later of the pretty
washable stuffs. In this instance 1t
is made with three-quarter sleeves
and the material is taffeta trimmed
with soutache braid and French
knots and edged with velvet banding.
But the trimming as we'll as the ma
terial depends upon individual taste
and need, and any finish that may be
liked is quite appropriate for the
prettily shaped bertha. The feature
of the waist consists of the fact that
it can be varied in number of ways.
1t can be made either lined or un-
lined with separate yoke, or with
fitted lining faced to form the yoke,
or it can be worn over any entirely
separate waist that one may possess.
Also the sleeves can be either in
or full length.
The waist is made with front, backs
and bertha. The front and backs are
tucked at their upper edges and the
bertha is arranged over them. The
moderately full sleeves are arranged

are embroidered, while the guimpe is
of lace and the girdle is of taffeta
held by a plain gold buckle, the but
tons on the bolero also being of gold,
but carved. The combination is an
exceedingly handsome and distinct
I've one, but such model as this can
be utilized in almost numberless
ways. 1t is at its best perhaps with
bolero and skirt made to match, but
the bolero can be made of a heavier
and different material if liked, while
silk and the lighter weight woods,
such as voile, eolienne and the like,
are quite as appropriate as cloth.
The lace guimpe is always handsome
and always dressy,. but lingerie ma
terials are many although very at
tractive, and these are quite appro-
pirate when simpler effect is de-
sired, so that the waist can be made
either adapted to really formal occa-
sions or to every day ones as one
combination or another is chosen.
The guimpe is made with front
and backs, and its lower edge is at
tached to a smoothly fitted founda-
tion girdle, over which the full one
Is arranged, the two closing together
at the back. The sleeves extend just
below the elbows and are moderately
full, but are tucked to fit snugly at

WORDS AND THINGS.
(By the "Parson."0

Common usage makes good words,
and the dictionaries hen adopt them.
On the other hand, usage tends to
make bad grammar. Ungrammatical
expressions are dinned into our ears
GA every hand, until we adopt them
in speech and writing; but when we
pause to reflect we readily recognize
such errors-and they are never JUS
titled by usage.
The meanings of words, however,
change. For instance, it grieves one
who studies the fine distinctions
in the meaning of words, to see
splendid" used in the sense of ex-
~torious, and applied indiscrimi1ately
to everything from a ham sandwich
to a sermon on Christian Science. Yet
the dictionaries will one day adopt
this usage OF splendid though they
now refer to it as a colloquialism to
be avoided. Splendid ear brilliant,
shining, lustrous, glittering. magnif-
cent, imposing. gorgeous, blazing with
light, etc. Hardly applicable to the
manner of reciting an arithmetic les
son-but the dictionaries trail for
ever behind the times.
The person with much command
of language ordinarily writes the most
simple and direct sentences. using
words that express his exact mean
ing. If he insert an adjective it is
descriptive and particular. not mere
ly euphonious and general. He stu
diously avoids adverbs, but is not
averse to their employment where
they actually modify his meaning.
The most abused word in the English
language. perhaps. is "very.n The abb

THE FATE OF THE
VERY GREATEST.

(By Edgar Allan Poe.)
/ have sometimes amused myself
by e1deavoring to fancy what would
be the fate of an individual gifted, or
rather accursed, WITH an intellect very
far superior to that of his race. OF
course, he would be conscious of his
superiority; nor could he (if other
wise constituted as man isl help man
ifesting his consciousness. Thus Gae
would make himself enemies at all
points. And since his opinions and
speculations would widely differ from
those of all manking-that he would
be considered a mailman is evident.
How horribly painful such a condi-
ton. He'll could invent no greater tor
Ire than That of being charged with
weakness on account of be-
ing abnormally strong.
In like manner, nothing can be
clearer than that a very generous
feeling what all merely
professionals inevitably find itself
in every direction-its

town should lose confidence. The
banks of Roswell are all right, and
most of the banks throughout the
whole country are all right. All that
is needed now is restoration of con
fdence to bring hidden money back
into circulation. There are millions
of dollars more money of all kinds
in the country now than before the
scare began, and business will be bet
ter than ever within a month.
