STRAIGHT Railroad Track.

In spite Of the apparently mathe.
NAUTICAL straight lines which many OF
the western railroads appear to follow
on the map, 1t has been stated that the
record in this respect win be beaten
by the new national transcontinental
railroad, otherwise known as the
Grand Trunk Pacific, 20 miles of which
will be constructed without curve.
Five years ago, however. a length of
II miles of perfectly straight railroad
track was constructed on the extern
sion of the Rhodesia railroads from
Bulawayo in the direction of the Vic.
toria falls. So far. therefore, as the
length of straight line is concerned.
the record is held by the portion of the
Rhodesia railroads above referred to.

RI YOU wish to be in the ranks
of the fashionable, vol must wear
- shoes which match your gown. So
say the authorities in whose hands
lies the awful power Of debating what
women shall wear, They do not deign
to give good reasons, for so autocratic
is their power that they can command
obedience In a manner more absolute
thar can the czar of Russia.
The prevailing color is to be green,
and to meet the mode shoe manufac-
turers have put forth a green suede
shoe to match the gowns. There is a
great variety in this article, and n
of the most fashionable styles consists
of what is known as the sheath boot.
This is nothing more than the old
fashioned ten-strapped sandal. In
stead, however, of having straps the
shoe Is made like an ordinary Napo-
leon boot, but the tops are cut in a
sort of diamond pattern and therefore
show q good deal of open work. The
buttons are run right down the front
of the shoe and afford the button man.
ufacturer an opportunity to do some
fancy ornamenting on the buttons.
incidentally all the diamonds cut in
the of the top of the shoe are finished
in embroidery.
The most decided change in the new
shoe will be the edge trimming. In.
stead of having the edges trimmed
close there is to be considerable
leather on the outside of the shoe.
With the moderate shaped toe now in
use by the manufacturers of lasts it is
claimed hat n wide scanned sole is
necessary to bring out the good points

full soles across the ball of the shoe

BEAUTY IN THE EXPRESSION.
kindliness and Good Nature Redeem
the Plainest Features.

One of the first things that the girl
who is seeking for beauty must think
about is her expression. You will no.
t1ce the plain girl whose face Is 80
expressive" when you would never
even see the girl whose features were
beautiful, but whose face lacked ex-
preston. Every one enjoys looking
upon a young girl whose bright, laugh.
ing eyes light up her already cheerful,
smiling face. When you meet such a
girl as this your mouth forms a smile
in spite of you. But when you meet
the woman who is always whining or
the n whose imaginary ills bore you
to death, then how do you feel? You
become irritable and cross, and you
wish you never had met her.
Imagine then your effect upon other
people, and if you feel that it is not
as pleasant as it might be make it so
at once. Good nature is an ideal beau
tifier. 1t brightens your eyes, dis
courages approaching wrinkles, and
brings tints of the rose into your
cheeks, while a cross disposition
makes your eyes fretful and surround
ed by crows feet, and your mouth
droops at the corners and makes you
look years older.

An Irishman one day was told TO put
up a s~ignboard on which were the
words: ITO Motorists-this hill Is
dangerous"
Away went Mike with the %signboard
and placed It at the bottom OF a very
steep hill. A few days later his en-
ployer went to see how the board was
put up, and, finding It at the bottom
OF the hill, sought and found Mike.
you blooming fool!' he cried, why
didn't you put that sign In the right
placer"
"'Shure and amt it?" asked Mike.
Don't the accidents happen at the
bottom?"-Harper's Weekly.

cross strapped slipper buckling close
to the instep. Three frogs decorate
the shoe under the straps. The toe is
pointed sharply and ornamented with
a buckle. The heel is higher than has
been fashionable with the summer
shoes, allowing a decided arch to the
instep.
For those who desire a high shoe
the Vassar boot should meet all re-
put out in bronze or soft black kid and
in colors to match the fashionable
shades in gowns, which are dull blue,
w~istaria, bronze and the new shade
which is popularity known as sand
color, having derived the name from
It's resemblance to the sand on a
beach when the sun shines on it.
This shade is n of the most beauti-
full in vogue for some time and Is sure
to be popular in shoes and gowns.
This shoe, which is distinctly indi-
vidualistic, has II straps, the series
eliminating with a bow at the top of
the shoe. The high Louis XIV. heel is
in general the style, but it is being
manufactured also with the Cuban
heel, which has made such Roadway
lately.
The most noticeable tendency in
modern footgear is towards an in
crease in ornamentation on the toe
cap. The spider slipper represents an
extreme in this respect. These goods
made of suede or kid, are heavily
beaded and fasten with three straps of
extremely ornamental pattern. The
shoe is made with the Louis XIV. heel
and a long and slender last. 1t is de-
clared by the authorities that shoes
of this style will be highly popular
during the winter in spite of the fact
that the protection that they afford
the foot Is extremely small.
