MAID WEARS PRINCESS APRON.
Is Alike and Vet Unlike the Conven.
tional Model,

Is Alike and Vet Unlike the Conven-
tional Model.
Quite the newest idea In maids
aprons is the Princess model, and this,
as its name implies, suggests being cut
all in one piece.
AS a matter Of fact, however, only
the front In the form of panel and
about four inches of the lower edge
are cut in one piece, the remaining
portions carrying out the design of the
conventional models, to which the
panel part is connected by means OF a
strip OF embroidery insertion. The
material is gathered at the top and
takes into the belt from the panel,
closing in the back without ends.
Shoulder straps of the insertion
edged with frill support the apron
IRON the bib, buttoning to the belt in
the back. Another variation of this
style has plain front panel, the side
portions gathered into a belt at the
top and hemmed and tucked on the
bottom.
The front is then joined with the in.
sertlon, while a third, closely follow
ing these lines, shows rutfle. instead
OF the hem. and tucks, headed by the
insertion, which, however, does not ex-
tend across the front panel.
This kind of apron will be worn by
the up-to-date waitress and chamber.
maid. They may be bought for from
$3.50 upward, according to quality and
decoration.
For madam's personal attendant the
English lady's maids apron is the pre-
ferred model. This is like the style
worn by nurses, being very large and
full, with a hem five inches deep on
the bottom, which in it's turn is button.
holed in round scallops on the edge
The apron completely covers the dress,
and is taken into a plain belt with
gathers.
The commOdious pockets for holding
brushes and other toilet requisites are
hemmed and scalloped on their upper
edges to match the hem.

Take Care OF Your Gloves,

Many women make the mistake OF
thinking that T. ti9ht-dtting glove
causes the hand to look small

substituted in its place. Besides
chairs and divans Of wicker, there can
be had many other articles, such as
Wristbands, chtffon1ers, desks, bu-
reaus, tables, and a multitude of other
things In the same strong, clean and
serviceable rattan and wicker. No
more attractive summer furniture
than this could be desired, If it has
been treated with coat of white en-
amel. On this page four of these
cool, comfortable pieces are shown.
The chair was remarkable for the way
in which the front of the seat was
cut, which made it very restful and
comfortable. The oddly shaped little
table that had wicker Stats from the
top of the table to the lower shelf, all
of this furniture being made as airy
and open as possible. The divan and
the other chair as we'll were made
with these openings wherever practi-
cal.
Sometimes we enter a room that is
restful, giving forth an atmosphere of
repose and quiet which makes us wish
to stay there. It may not have new
furniture and hangings, or be richly
furnished, but what there is has been
arranged with such perfect taste that
there is 4 grateful harmony soothing
to weary minds and tired nerves. To
arrange such room it. takes more
than merely acquired taste, built on
knowledge Of light aud color har-
monies. There must be a sure and
certain feeling where to put that
chair, where to hang that picture, how
many ornaments are permissible, what
color and design Of carpet and paper
to use. There are no set rules for
the restful room. It may be the library,
the BEDROOM the parlor, the kitchen
even, and but one thing is common
to all these-if they are Of the restful
sort-they are not crowded with fur
niture. We can go out and get gayety
and excitement enough; or we can
have these at home, If we so wish
it; but the most Of US prefer to come
home and feel the restful and quiet
atmosphere given by tasteful sur
roundings. It is given to very few
to rise superior to their surroundings,
Indifferent to ugly and inharmon1ous
things. Only those who have known
the figured, yellow paper. the 75.cent
gilt mantle clock, the unspeakable. up
holstered, spindle-legged sofa, the
painted tin plaque On q twisted wire
stand-those alone who have known
these can appreciate the effort it takes
to keep an equable temper over such
surroundings, and the relief which Ii
felt when foot is set in a home in
which the keynote is repose and rest
fulness.

AS children little clothes, the great OUT
grow
The places that they once Inhabited
The truly great ones, the imm dead
Who left a name and reverence below.
And when, perchance, the kindly people
show
Where they were born and nursed and
reared and fed,
And wrote and wrought and struggled,
haply bled
In dreadful combat, giving blow for blow.
Scarce can we link the thought Of them
sublime
With unimportant accident of place
And dwindle them to mortal frame again;
For they were bred within the womb of
Time,
And now inhabit miracle of grace,
The countless chambers of the souls Of

VERSE OF THE DAY.
Song Of the Thrush.


All, the May was grand this morntn'!
Shure, how could I feel forlorn in
Such land, when tree and flowers tossed
their kisses to the breeze?
Could an Irish heart be quiet
While the spring was running riot,
An the birds of free America were singing
in the trees?
In the songs that they were singing
NO familiar note was ringing,
But strove to initiate them an whistled
like lad
Oh, my heart was warm to love them
For the very newness of them
for the ould songs that they helped me to
forget-an' was glad.
50 Knocked the feathered choir
10 my hungry hearts desire,
All l glorled in the comradShip that made
their joy my own
LII note sounded, sitting
All the rest. A thrush was tri1ling!
An! the thrush left behind me in the fields
about Athlone!
Where, upon the whitethorn swaying,
he was minstrel of the Maying
In my days of love- an laughter that the
years have laid at rest;
Here again his notes were ringing! ~z#'
But I'd lost the heart for singing
An the song could not answer was the
one l knew the best!
