BEST FORM OF EXERCISE.
Boston Girls Enthusiastic Over the
Use Of DumbbeIis

There is a good deal OF enthusiasm
lately over dumbbells among the girls
who are always up on the latest for
keeping ones self in good trim. They
say that dumbbells are better than
plain calisthenics without any ap-
paratus, because they give YOU some
thing definite to do. These girls have
found it great temptation in the
ordinary exercises simply to wave the
arms and legs about without any par
ticular object. Dumbbell drills are
better than raising chairs with one
finger and standing on-your- head
stunts. because the average girl can
do them. while she often loses her
courage with the impossible exercises

The pope recently entertained the
members OF the Sacred college with
the recital of how a certain gold coin
had been given TO him as a jubilee gift
by the diocese OF Acqui This coin
was discovered in 1898. while excava.
Gons were being made for the founda.
ton of new church at ACqui. Upon
examination II was found TO be the
only coin in existence of the period
OF innocent IN. The diocese OF Acnui
was unable to pay the architect who
had drawn the plans for the new
church, so 1t gave him the coin with
the understanding that il he sold i:
for more than 81 200, the amount OF
dis bill, the surplus should be returned
To the diocese. Later the clergy col.
fected the 81 200, bought the coin. and
presented it to the pope. This coin
was the only one lacking 10 complete

MAKE OVER LINEN SUIT.
Last Years Costume Will Do with q
Little RemodeIing.

Have You last years summer suit
OF liner, white, tan. or colored. which
needs remodeling? The STYLES of this
year differ from those OF last year by
but few points. which 1t is eesy to
change.
The latest idea from Paris. and one
which bids fair TO take firm hold Of
the American fancy. is using coloreil
cretonne for trimming. Just a touch
OF it is sufficient TO change an old
style suit TO one which Is up to date
and nobby.
III your suit is a last summers one.
all you need, probably, is a new set of
cuffs, with one of the new adjustable
shawl collars which can be put on
and taken off at will. Or. if the coat
has rundown collar and mannish
revers. cut them off and finish the
front and neck edges with bands of
the cretonne, and If the skirt needs q
new touch or freshening up, finish the
lower edge with band to match the
coat
Probably the Jacket OF your linen
suit happened TO be short and loose.
and has grown tight in the hips. If
so. open up the seams and slash the
coat, both front and back, to the depth
OF about six inches, and finish the low
er edge Of the coat with an inch wide
band of colored linen and run the
bands up along the edges where the
coat has been slGshed to finish them.
The appearance OF the coat may be
improved by changing the buttons Rip
on the old buttons and buy some but
ton molds. Cover with cretonne and
sew on to the coat. Buttons are sewed
10 dresses, coats and skirts not only
where they are needed. but also where
they are not needed. and where they
simply serve as a trimming.
