Love Is Cruel, Indeed.

Love comes unbidden and fees from
those who pray at his shrine. He
comes like all-conquering kings-free.
hearted, generous, great; he goes like
a thief in the night, carrying away all
that has made life worth the living.
He stabs Us with the weapons we have
given him. he drinks our tears and
laughs at the tortures he intiicts, for
love is cruel. And yet we
are ever ready again and again to bare
our hearts to the blows. Men feel
love with more intensity than women.
and they forget more s~iftly.-From
Madame.

At Sycamore Hill

Some one who does not believe that it
is an objectionable sin to have q little
fun at the expense of Roosevelt and
Taft has given the world the following
account of the interview between these
notables at Sycamore Hill, when Roose-

"Ah, dee-lighted to see you Judge;
please take this chair-excuse me, you
had better take the settee. Is the
porter bringing in your speech of

down there my good man; but you must
be fatigued.'

Teddy-"Well-I-of course you must
read it or have it read Just lay off
your coat, your vest, your collar and

out about 1900 words L had prepared

the Standard Oil company since the
court has cleared the Rockefellers of
that 20 million dollar fine. You see,
Teddy, it has taken nearly all the wind
out of our campaign. And just to
think the court wouldn't wait till after
the election, like we are doing on the
tariff revision"
Teddy-"My opinion of that court,
Judge, would not look well in print"

against the British companies, especial ly the Cunard line, which, with it's new record d-breaking Lusitania and Mature tania had not alone challenged the mercantile supremacy of the seas as re- gards swift boats that are also large but had actually snatched the blue rib bon out of the Germans grasp for the time.
 Of course, 1t Is not at all likely that full details of the articles of agreement between the Hamburg and Bremen companies will be made public until they are suggested to the public mind by some move tending to show that the German companies have come to feel that the time mas come for ending the intense rivalry which has characteriz- ed their attitude toward each other, If a rivalry against companies of another nation Is to be successfully prosecuted. There were even hints that high Ger man authorities whispered something of the sort in the ears of the directors in Bremen and Hamburg.
 The combination, in any event, vii be a powerful one.

OCEAN RATES AFFECTED

Bremen, Jan. 1o.-The North German Lloyd Steamship company and the Hamburg American Steamship company have definitely agreed to work in uni . son in the matter of the North Amerl- can and East Asiatic shipping of the two lines. The agreement is to last for four years. The Hamburg company withdraws from the passenger traffic to the Far East, receiving for this con- cesioh certain advantages, which have not been made public, concerning the Dteerage business in the United States. The two companies have reached an agreement also in the matter of tho steamships that have been taking pleasure parties on special tours
 Each company was asked for an ex- planation of the agreement The North German Lloyd replied: .'The agree ment is for four years. It secures the joint operation of the two companies in the North Atlantic as we'll as in the Eastern African trade
 New York, Jan. 10.-Steamshfp men were inclined to regard this dispatch as peculiarly significant, inasmuch as in its contents they seem to find evi- dence of something more than a mere merging of the interests of the two great lines.

 If you desire to make something pretty with a touch of hand embroid- cry on it select a piece of nuns veil ing ands work 1t with silk designs for a shirt waist. There is ample oppor- tunity for making something very at tractive with this material if the broad shoulder pieces are used in the forma tion of the waist The pattern should he dainty. There is a pretty design for an embroidery pattern which has bow knots and graceful flower tendrlls 3nterlaced among the ribbon ends. The sleeves may also be decorated if the leg -mutton sleeve is used, since the sleeve cuff will look much heater if banded with pretty embroidery designs
 Perfectly comfortable for cold and stormy weather is a roonny coat of English tweed or homespun, and if one possesses also skirt like the coat she has costume fit to brave any weather and one that Is stylish as well.
 Flannels, whether white or of deli- rate tint, must be washed in tepid wa ter and only white soap used, since the yellow has too much resin in it. and the clothes must also be rinsed in warm water and dried in the warm sunshine or a heated room. F1annels must never be allowed to freeze.
 All the new evening gowns are cut low in the neck, but the lines are most carefully studied to give the effect of being extreme while in reality they are not. The square cut with the straps over the shoulders is more fash tonable this winter than the round cut, with sleeves falling off at the should CTS, but, as a rule, there are tabs of embroidery or wings of lace that fall from the straps in long graceful lines. The constant iteration of long lines seems absolutely senseless to the un- initiated but the we'll dressed woman whose clothes win admiration knows how much there is in the expression and realizes that this Is the crucial consideration.
