EASY TO oVERDO DUTY.
Not More Than Their Share Is Re-
quired of Anyone.

1t is a wise woman who knows
where to draw the line on just how
much duty requires of her to do in
this world. 1t is really not helpful to
yourself or to others to do more than
your share under any circumstances.
There are women who always tell
you how tired they are and how
time they have for the really pleasant
things of life.
If they are young they wish they
had time for the theater or a little
social event. If they are married,
they wish they had the energy to be
clever and bright when their husbands
are at home in the evening, or to see
something of the girl friends they had
to give up.
They sigh over all the missed joys
with the remark: eff l only didn't
have so much to do to keep me from
all these happy things"
If you will make these women sit
down and analyze what it is that keeps
them from all the pleasant things, it
almost always turns out to be that
they are overriding their duty.
They give hours to a thing that,
when accomplished, doesn't amount to
much and could well have been put
upon other shoulders. They make
other people dependent upon them by
the way in which they rush into un-
loading the burdens off shoulders
which are well able to carry them.
They are too tired, for instance, to
be amusing to their husbands in the
evening, because they have passed
hours in a hot kitchen trying to per.
feet some special dish which these hus-
bands like.
Then, when the other half, who

crouched on the floor. The veterinary
said it was paralysis. Yes, he had
treated such cases before, but it was
not often that a dog in the prime of
life was seized. An injury, he sug
gested. Higgins went to the hospital
for a few days, then he came home
and was tenderly nursed by his mis-
tress.
"Chloroform him." urged a friend.
He does not suffer at ALL" said the
vet.

get entirely WELL" was the announce
ment a week or two later. By this
time Higgins had resumed his sports
with the slipper, the rag doll, the wool
ly sheep and the rubber ball. His
friendly exuberance of had re-
turned and he made it plain that he
would like an airing. Richard was
himself again, with one exception-his
hind legs were useless. The dog got
around lively enough On his front legs,
pitifully dragging the manned mem
bers IN the floor. 1t was doubtful if
the hind legs ever would recover mo-
ton was the final verdict of the vet
Urinary, who otherwise pronounced
the dog in a perfectly healthy condi-
ton.
His mistress took him out. Higgins
was wild with joy; he enjoyed himself
hugely. His mistress! Well, she came
home with a we'll developed backache
and a still more highly developed at
tack Of indignation. From start to
finish Higgins and his mistress had
been the center of attraction. A wo-
man bending over to hold up a dogs
hind legs and a dog running along
briskly on two legs only was not by
any means an everyday sight. The
backache caused by her STOPPING posi-
ton was a trifle not worth mentioning.
said Higgins mistress, compared with
the remarks which greeted her and
made her squirm.
At this juncture, writes the New
York Sun, a friend came to her assist
ance with a suggestion which after
ward was followed with complete sue
cess, to the evident delight of Higgins
as well as his mistress. This was to
get a sort of go-cart, or basket car
riage, large enough to hold the dogs
hind legs. Higgins was carefully
measured and a basketmaker consult
ed. Suitable wheels were secured by
visiting a toy shop which kept dolls
go-carts, the wheels of which were
found to be the very thing. Shafts
were attached to the cart and these
were fastened to the dogs harness
with snap buckles. From the moment
Higgins saw the cart he gave it his
entire approval. Now, whenever the
cart appears Higgins makes for it
with yelps of pleasure and backs up,
his mistress tucks the doubled-up legs
in the basket, the harness is fastened
and the dog is of up the street faster
than his mistress can keep up with
him. At the crosswalks Higgins needs
a lift; otherwise he trots along as
freely as If he had the use of four in
stead Of two legs.

and filling up small gaps he could
have cut in many more letters.
The pin, looked at with the naked
eye, seems merely to have a slightly
roughened head. The letters can be
read only with a magnifying glass. The
work was done at odd times during a
regular weeks work. 1t would be sup
posed that such a feat required spc-
cially prepared tools of q very fine and
expensive make. On the contrary, It

Lords Prayer engraving a remarkable
feat as he once succeeded in putting
264 letters on a bank pin, which is
smaller than the ordinary.
Several years ago it was quite a fad
to wear as watch charms gold dollars

ably fine work at the time, but the pin

dress lengths of IL yards each and the
border appears about as or AZ inches
apart, which, for a short woman, will
admit Of a princess effect.
The preferred trimming for tailored
linen suits Is braid and buttons. For
dressy afternoon wear. coats and en-
tire suits are inset with quantities
of heavy lace to which fancy wash
braids and buttons are added.
Wash braids come in many styles,
from the narrow soutache and fiat
hercules braids to marvellous combina-
lions OF cotton OF linen braid
and lace, the latter set on the
edge or in medallions surrounded by
braid.
Buttons for trimming may be made
from molds covered simply with
linen like the costume, or the linen
may be c~riss-crossed with narrow
braid, or the buttons may be cro-
cheted or embroidered. For very
fussy frocks you see buttons COW
cred with ~crocheting or lace or en-
brOidery and then finished all the way
round with a fiat frilling or plating Of
val lace.
Pink and blue in half a dozen
shades, lavender, green and yellow are
shown in linens for suits, but far smart
er this season are the soft shades Of
gray and tan made up with heavy
white lace or bias bands of self tone
or even white.
For tailored wash suits, plated
skirts, either with Or without the yoke,
according to the height of the wearer,
and cutaway coats are shown. In
more fussy costumes the looser louis
coat is offered, with the circular skirt.
The shirt waist suit is extremely
natty and shows how a little of the
| popular braiding "a be used to re-
lieve an otherwise evere costume.
This skirt of ecru lawn was laid in
rlaits stitched very fatty over the
hips with many rows of stitching
above the hem.
The shirt waist was laid in broad
tucks front and back, with a double
box plat down the front. The shaped
collar, cuffs of the plain shirt sleeve,
the double box plat and the girdle
were all braided in a simple but eff
fective design in white washable SOU
tache.
The braiding on the box plat was
finished with two ornaments of white
mercerized floss which will wash nice
ly. This style would be effective if
developed in pale gray with white
braid or any of the more delicate
tones, like blue, pink or lavender.
Lawn, linen, batiste, zephyr ginghams,
percales, almost any of the tub fab
RIGS will work out well in this design.
A remarkable feature of the pres
ent eason Is the use of bretelles in
wash fabrics, and while this means
work for the expert laundress, it GER
tainly adds to the effectiveness of the
average wash costume for the slen-
| der girl.

Joe Brown is a man of about IS. He

and was then sen to the University
of Georgia, and afterward took a legal
course at Harvard. His education

to work, at times aiding his father in
his political fights.
He began his railroad work in 1877,
when he vas hired as a clerk in the
freight department of the Western &
Atlantic road. He became general
freight agent in 1881, general freight
and passenger agent in 1884 and traf.
fic manager in 1889. In the succeed.
ing years he filled various railroad po-
sitsons of responsibility.

but is o then entitled to another
turn.
If, in trying to drive his ball
through, explains Good Literature, a
player sends another players ball
through the ring, it counts two points
for the other player. The balls must
not be pushed or thrown through the
ring, but driven with the u by a
stroke. A player may aim for another
BAN instead of the ring so as to put
that ball out of position, or he may
aim to strike the edge of the ring to
make it turn and present its edge to
another ball.
When you have become skillful you
may be able to drive your ball through
the ring even when turned edgewise
by striking the ball so that it hits the
side of the ring and turns it in a posi-
ton to catch the ball.

If a round box is not obtainable a

of card about five inches deep.

Very few of the tinted borders will
