TRlNKETS IN STYLE
PLAIN COMBS ARE NOW DEcREED
FOR THE HAIR.
Gold and JeWeI-Trimmed Ornaments
No Longer In vogue-Sieeve
Links Have Achieved
Popularity.

For the hair the gold and jewel
trimmed combs are no longer con-
sfdered In the very best taste, espe-
cial1y for young girls.
The plain amber colored combs and
pins for the head of the blond girl
and those In dark shell for the bru-
nette are correct. The combs are usu-
ally better also when made with tops,
without knobs or other decoration.
The button pins are used by girls who
wear their hair up. The top part of
these pins turn back over the hair in
a fiat piece of shell, like large but
ton. The effect is very neat. For
keeping in flying ends Of hair also
there are corkscrew pins of amber
strange looking things, that screw into
the hair in spiral fashion, so that one
would fear they might never come out
again. But they are in fact compare
lively easy Of adjustment and they
are admirable for keeping the hair
neat. There are also pins which come
in pairs, called staple pins. They have
amber or shell tops and are in the
shape of large staples, as their name
indicates. They are worn on either
eide of low knot, or if the. hair is
braided and turned under may be
form in place of a bow. The tops
stand out we'll from the head.
Sleeve links are much worn nova
days by women, though many waists
of the tailor made variety have but
tons sewed on. When girls prefer
buttons, the styles worn by men are
chosen, care being taken to select a
suitably small and dainty pair. An
idea which has been followed out by
some girls for the sleeve links of
their morning waists of the tailor
made variety is to get the plain moth
er of pearl buttons which are sold for
wear in mems evening clothes. These
are fiat buttons, just like those which
are sewed on shirt waists, only finer
and of more attractive design. They
are small In size and when used in
tailored shirt waists they are exceed
ingly neat and at the same time smart
looking.
Belt buckles for wear with fine silk
belts are in gold, silver or mother OF
pearl They are most attractive with
out stone settings. The gold and sill
yer buckles are chased or engraved
In charming designs The mother of
pearl buckles are very nice for linen
belts or for those in white corded silk.

Dotted Swiss Frock,

Very attractive for a young girl
would be popular model of white
dotted Swiss trimmed in bands and
straps of Irish lace insertion, edged
with tiny inch and half wide frills
of the swiss. The bell sleeves are
worn over an inner bishop sleeve. The
full-gathered skirt has two bands of
the befrilled Irish insertion. With
this little frock is worn a white sash
of soft satin ribbon tied in an AL
satan bow with long ends. The
white chip hat is bound in black rib
erty satin, and has no other trim.

same material. ..

The best thing to do will be to ar.
range series of races, according to
age and sex. This can be made very
amusing. Then have peanut hunt,

the chintZ-hung bedroom of friends
weekend cottage really lovely and
most original pincushion made of
piece Of needlework. The pincushion
was almost heart-shaped, and was
fashioned of heavy "antique" linen
completely covered with a conven-
tional design of broderie anglaise
worked in glossy mercerized embroid-
cry cotton. Beneath came lining
of pale rose pink, which showed
through the open pattern in most en-
ticing fashion. A wee double frill of
linen edged the cushion all round, and
made a pretty finish. To the two
top corners were stitched the ends
of loop of pa,e pink ribbon, the
sewing being concealed beneath two
smart bows of the ribbon, similar
bow ornamenting the top of the loop
This loop by the way, was intended
to suspend the cushion from the side
of the mirror, and thus save valuable
space on the small dressing table.

Part of Her Learning.

The child was quietly sitting on
footstool, nursing a sick dolly. The
mother was earnestly advising her
visitors not to send their daughter to
Paris to learn French. II can speak

French. - In particular, they
learn to be: untruthful." Did you,

About 40 years ago the adjudicators
of the Arnold historical essay prize
at Oxford university where wearily
plowing through the usual lot of COM
monplace'- e'-compositions, when they
suddenly lighted on one which was
not commonplace. The subject was
'The Holy Roman Empire,' and it is
not too much to say that these cyni-
cal dons were electrified to enthusi-
asm. Hastily awarding it the prize
they opened the sealed envelope and
found that it was the work of one
James Bryce, aged rs, who is now
British minister to the United States.
His essay has been reproduced in sew
eral languages and to this day is a
standard on the subject.

Matrimony No Miracle.

After long years, matrimony may be
said to wear of some of the rough
edges, but the long years might have
worn them off had these people re-
mained single. So think well about it,
men and maids, before you enter upon
it's precincts and choose wisely, for
the one you marry is the one you must
live with, and matrimony works no
miracle with character.

MUCH DEPENDS ON cOlFFURE.
New Millinery Demands Appropriate
Dressing of the Hair.

1t is practically impossible to con-
slider the more extreme hat shapes of
the season and the coiffures separate
ly. The new coiffure is a difficult
thing to manage. Women should ex-
pertinent patiently and intelligently
with it and should consider it in it's
relation to the head as well as to the
hat. Otherwise we shall owe the new
millinery a deep and lasting grudge

The Voice In the Choir.

The Voice in the choir seemed to
ascend up and up through the vaulted
ceiling by way of the marble pillars,
like silver thread. 1t was divine.
She sat enraptured through the SER
mon to hear it again. Then on her
way out she said to the sexton:
Do they keep him On ice to pre-.
serve his voice? Do they wrap him in
cotton till he is ready to sing, and
feed him with a spoon?"
'They do nothing of the Sort" the
sexton replied. They don't take
care of him at all. He is the worst
little rascal in the choir and up to the
most mischief. His voice will last
only a year or so, then he will be just
an ordinary child. 1t is so with them

During 1906 there we're u lynch
ings in the United States. This is
seven more than in 1905, but fifteen
less than in 1904, and thirty-two
less than in 1908. In 1901 there were
1876, but in 1902 there were only So.
Lynchings are gradually decreasing
in number. In 1891 there were 1872,
in 1892 there were 235, in 1898 the
number was 200, and in the seven
years following the numbers were
1870; I'll, 1871, 166, 1913, 107 and 116
respectively. Last year the lynch.
ings were distributed as follows:

two victims. seventy were negroes,
one of them a woman. Two victims
were white, one in North Carolina
and one in Louisiana. Of the sew
enty-two lynchings only fourteen
we're for "the usual" crime" while
nineteen were for alleged attempts
at assault.
In 1906 more than 5000 human
