She has saved herself some nervous strain, and. if she has, like the Dutch girl, been gathering chest full of fine linen of her own making, anticipating the time of need, she Is all the better off.
 Since we have adopted the French word for underclothlng, an added necessity has been laid upon us of having this little finer, better fit. ting and a little daintier than of old. Lingerie is an unimaglnable word for a combination of coarse cloth. cheap embroidery and careless work.
 We may learn many things from the French, the accredited inventors of the artistic and beautiful in mod. ern dress, in reference to these mat. ters. The phrase beautiful under. meath" is theirs. and has almost . moral significance. To their minds 1t is next to impossible to be clothed sound, thoroughly dressed, without giving exact and careful attention to every garment from the first to the last.
 To be "beautiful underneath" ones undergarments need not necessarily be artistic creations, but they should be in keeping with the outer dress. If our outer gown or suit is substantial, everything that goes with 1t should, in a measure. be that also; but if we wear lingerie waist or an elaborate dress of muslin, null, chiffon or em. broidery, our smaller garments should be in keeping. Half of the charm of lingerie waist is lost If 1t seems to house crude undergarments.' Many wise woman has denied herself the pleasure of wearing this fascinating garment because she had not the suitable ac- compartments. while many a girl in

 One of the ever-popular and easy designs for embroidery. whether for a hat, shirt waist, linen collar and cuffs, table mats or for fiouncings and other decorations of underwear is the daisy pattern. The flower may have five or dozen petals. the petals may be in the eyelet or solid, and SO with the center, but combination of the two forms is most effective. perhaps, although very frequently both petals and center are in eyelet. Medallions are made with this pattern. and bands with this figure. scalloped on both edges, make very effective trimmings. It is easy to draw these for ones self and even to add the sprays of eyelet leaves that are often used with them.
 For dainty yokes. especially for chil. dren's garments. one of the finest things Is rows of hemstitching on sheer lawn or linen. half an inch or so apart. with feather-stitching in the space between Feather-stitching without the hemstitching Is very dain- ty. and may be done in circles of an inch or more in diameter. such as have been used on some of the hand somest of the tailored shirt waists.
 But plain. solid. handsome effects are in no way better secured than by using the braids. especially the mar. rowest Irish A night-dress trimmed with this put on with little curls every inch or so. is a very substantial and goodlooking garment. This braid also lends itself to the making of the monogram. which Is 90 much used in marking both menls and vomen's hab- erdashery. Both the narrow and the wide Irish braids are used on mems and boys nightshsrts.

LUTHERANs
Will Go In and Possess the Land,
Mission Work Having Been
Resolved On.

PIEDMONT. w. Va, Oct. 1S--At
the closing session OF the Allegheny
Conference of the Maryland Synod
of the Evangelical Lutheran Church,
which met here this week, the en-
phatic plea was made by the West
Virginia missionaries for forward
movement in missions in this State
Never before has the work of the
Lutheran cnurcn received so great
impetus to go in and possess the
land. Lutheran people from Penn
sylvania, Maryland and other neigh
boring states are moving into the
progressive cities OF this great com
monwealth at far more rapid rate
than has hitherto been believed.
Floarishing missions are now being
maintained at Clarksburg, Fairmont,
Huntington, Keyser and Elkins, and
plans were formulated to occupy
rev fields during the year.
The Rev L. w. sifferd. of Clarks-
burg, extended an invitation to the
conference to meet in that city in
its spring session.

Mr.. Carter became pastor of the

A STRONG
ARGUMENT
Against Granting Electric Light
Franchise Made by Mr..
McGeorge.
d. D. w. McGEoRGE.

The Clarksburg Electric Light
Company is asking for a renewal OF
it's FRANCHISE. by changing the two
words twenty years" so as to read
''ffty years" They have made
such a radical change that it might
properly be called an application for
a new franchise.
From previous experience / do
not believe our present city council
has the proper appreciation in the
difference in value between twenty
and a fifty year franchise. A few
months ago the South Penn Oil Com
pany applied for fifty year fran
chise to erect poles from the center
of the city to their works at Indus
trial. The council seemed careless
about it. and granted them the fran
chise without asking them to take
it for shorter time
When talking to some of the
counciImen about the matter, and
explaining to them that a fifty-year
franchise should never be granted
under any circumstances, they seem
ed not to grasp the situation.
This is where our danger is.
Without realizing that they are
giving away property worth at least
a million dollars, our councilmen
may as likely vote another fifty-year
franchise. This burden once placed
upon US, we will never 'be able to
lay it upon the ground. But lay it
on the backs of our children. who
