with the tunic pieces crossed at the
front and separated at the back by

foulard and messaline. The dress is
in two pieces, a bodice fastened at the
back and a skirt in three fiounces
tucked at the edge. A gored founda
tiono, fitted. to the hips and not toe
wide at the bottom, is required for the
attachment of the f1ounces, and these

History Of Red cross seaI.

CHARITY stamps" first used in
Boston in 1852 for the soldiers relief
funds during the Civil war, were the
original forerunners Of the Red Cross
Christmas seal, which will be used
this year to bring happiness and cheer
to millions. The Delaware Anti-Tu-
berculosis society in 1907 for the first
time in America made use of a stamp
for the purpose of getting revenue to
fight consumption. In a hastily or
ganized campaign of only three weeks
they realized $4,000. The next year,
1908, the American Red Cross o n
Quoted the first national tuberculosis
stamp campaign. From this sale $685.
900 was realized for the anti-tubercu-
losis movement. In 1909, under many
adverse conditions, $4,000 was rea-
lized from these stamps. This year
the slogan Of the tuberculosis fighters
and the Red Cross is "a Million for
tuberculosis From Red Cross Seals
in 1910"

Small Son of Nicholas a Plctur-

One Of the Best Natured as Well az

tie Fellows of Europe-Seven
Years of Age.

Vienna.-Among the numerous lit
tie princes in Europe, one of the best
natured as well as the best looking
little fellows is the small Prince
Nicholas Of Roumania, who is now
seven years of age. The youngster Is
the fourth in the charming group OF
children whose father is Crown
Prince Ferdinand of the picturesque
kingdom Of Roumania and whose
mother vas formerly Princess Marie,
daughter Of the Duke of Saxe-Coburs
and Gotha. The youthful prince is
not a grandson of the present ruler,
King Carol, and his wife, known
world wide as Carmen sylvia" They
have no children.
King Carol was born a Hohenzol-
lern and his consort a grand duchess
of Vienna. After the deposition OF
Prince Couza-Alexander John l.,
which was a result of the military
revolt of 1866, the Count of Flanders.
younger brother of Leopold II. of Bel

clined with thanks. Then the Rou-
manians selected Prince Carol OF
Observation-Disclosures. and he has
made an excellent ruler. In 1878 the
Berlin congress acknowledged him
king of the country, which at that
time had just freed itself from the
Turkish yoke and had to begin, as 1t
were, from the beginning. He is ex-
ceedingly popular with his subjects, as
is his consort, known among her own
people as Elisaveta.

his rights in favor of his brother
Ferdinand. The crown prince of
Roumania, therefore, is King Carols
nephew. The princess is a grand
daughter of Queen Victoria and is

her mother was a Russian grand

Separate Waists for Autumn

1T is a happy bit of news to most
women that fashion Is not only ap
proving but emphasizing the vogue OF
the separate waist for autumn" says
Grace Margaret Gould in Woman's
Home Companion. "The costume
blouse will divide honors with the
shirtwaist and women the world owe
will be glad. The versatility of the
separate waist, as far as usefulness
goes, is well known. and this coming
season 1t will add to its practical and
economical qualities an unusual meas
ure of good looks. In the guise of a
costume blouse it will lend its charm
and effectiveness to the plain tailored
suit, making it appropriate for many
varied occasions"

The PIace of Honor.

Farmer Hodge was of the good, old
fashioned school, and he always gave
a feast to his hands at harvest time.
1t was harvest time and the feast
was about to commence.
Giles was the oldest hand and the
hostess, with beaming cordially, mo-
toned him to the seat by her right
hand. But Giles remained silently un.
responsive.
Come" said the hostess, don't be
bashful, MI. Giles'-he was just Giles
on ordinary occasions-"you've a right
to the place of honor, you know"
Giles deliberated a moment, then
spoke.
THANK you kindly, Mrs. Hodge"
he said, "but if it's all the same to
you, I'd rather sit opposite this pud-
den'!"

For Is minutes the door had been

At last the stern but anxious parent
unlocked the closet door and peered
into the darkness. She could see
nothing.
What are you doing in there?" she
cried.
And then a little voice piped from
