DAILY FASHION HINT.

New York, Aug. 13.-Never be-
fore have the linen costumes been
so wonderfully smart and attractive
as they are this year. The suit Of
1908 has not taken suggestion
from the one of 1907. and therefore
the last years model is hopelessly
out of date. The costume of white
linen is unquestionably the one that
leads the more elaborate models.
This has a coat and one-piece gown.
the skirt of which is either circular
or demi-trained. The favorite coat
length is halfway between the
waist line and the knees. Some
slant gradually away from several
inches below the waist line, others
are a trifle longer in front than in
hack and still others are pointed on
the sides. back and front. Very few
cutaway styles are seen, although
there are some attractive models
with the back OF the coat nearly
reaching the seven.eights point
The trimmings on these are of lace
and landings of embroidered muslin
For street use the suits are strictly
tailored and are noticed in light
blue, buff and tan. and for travelling
the darker shades of blue, mauve
brown and black and white striped
are fashionable. A popular skirt
model in the street costume is circu-
lar. closing in front with large lin.
EN- covered buttons ornamenting the
seam from belt to hem. Very smart
are the skirts with from 10 to 19
cores, each seam stitched on the
outer side SO that 1t SCENE to in.
dictate a narrow bias band. To be
very correct these skirts should b.
four inches from the ground. These
linen suits have been extremely
| fashionable this summer and many
styles in heavier weights will BE-
worn during the next month or two

TO YOUNG MEN.
BY EDWIN a. NYE.


B eSSsNO SsASANs
Jan kubelik. the violinist. has insur-
ed bis left hand for $25O.OOO.
His left hand IL worth that much to
him. and more. Were he to lose that
left hand or to suffer permanent dis.
ability by accident or disease there
would be an end to his violin playing.
You see. the violinist gets his tones
by the use Of the fingers of his left
hand. 1t Is not his right hand which
makes the flourishes with the bow that
does the business. 1t Is the trained
fingers Of the left hand which carry
the violinist's intellect and feeling to
the very tips. These sensitive fingers
know to hairs breadth just where to
place themselves to give out the subtle
shades of meaning and sentiment
Kubelik's fingers are educated fin
gers.
That is why they are worth $4,000
apiece.
Just so Theodore Thomas might have
Insured his ears for a large sum, the
marvelousIy sensitive drums Of those
ears detecting instantly the slightest
discord in his great orchestra.
And so Burne-Jones could well afford
to insure his eyes. Without them he
could not paint "Vampire" Those
eyes take in subjective beauty and
charm and make them objective.
Those eyes are better educated and
therefore more valuable eyes than or
binary eyes.
Young man
The world is asking Of every young
man today not so much What do you
know" as WHAT CAN YOU DO?"
Can you do some one thing better than
your fellows-play violin. conduct an
orchestra, paint picture. write a
book, run a locomotive, make the plans
for house or build one. till a farm.
! manage store. plead a cause, dag
nose a case?
The world. like Diogenes Of old, has
its lantern out always looking for a
NAN. 1t Will pay his price If he is
the right man. He can have what he
wants If he can do the job.
Add value to yourself!
And there is only one way by which
You can do that, 1t Is the old way. the
hard way Of labor. strife. toll. concen.
