AT DUSK.

Where shadows fall along the wall.
A lance of golden glory,
Cuts through the gloom that fills the room
And lights the branches hoary
Of swaying trees, in ftful breeze,
That stand outside and SILVER
Beneath the still and gloomy chill
That broods above the river.
The sunsets rays, gorgeous blaze
Of splendor, spent in dying,
Light up the earth, like smile of mirth,
The gloom Of night defying;
Then in the west, above the crest
Of clouds, bright starlight flashes;
And darkness creeps where shadows sleep,
Above dead fires ashes.
"A. Louise Pratt, in Boston Transcript

A Touch of Blue.

The black dress of the moment is
in charmeuse, and it is long and
swathed softly to the figure, the drap-
cries of the skirt being caught up in
looped effects at the sides or back.
Sometimes the charmeuse is yelled
with silk voile, the yelling being made
to droop over the upper part of the
hem, which is encircled with fairly
tight band of blue satin covered with
the voile.

Socialist Won't Pay Poll Tax
and Will Have to STAY

Grafton, I'LL. J. Keen, a social
list in jail here, who has refused to
pay poll tax, has been informed
that he will have to serve six months
for each of the three years he is de-
linquent. Keen has served six weeks
OF his first sentence and has sacrificed
more than 500 in salary rather than
pay tax which he calls unjust. The
city of Grafton already has expended
more for meals than the tax
amounted to, but Mayor Journey in
sists that he is enforcing the law.

New silk Petticoat.

The new petticoat is OF soft, lus-
trous messaline. Polka dots are
strewn over the silken surface. 1t
comes in lovely colors. Because of
its softness the messaline will not cut,
as do the taffeta silks. And silk
petticoat that wears we'll is always a
feminine boon.

Eccentric Jabots,

The jabots Of the hour are eccen-

made Of a combination of whatever
materials are used for the waist and
surmounted by narrow frills of tin
sci cord.

New collar.

Chantecler is one of the new colors.
Probably an attempt to copy the bril-
liant purple pink OF the coxcomb gave
this color its right to the name of
Rostand's last play. At any rate, it is
a dazzling shade that promises to
take New York City by storm.

silk Should Match.

Where silk hose are rubbed into
holes in the back by low shoes or
pumps, 1t is usually useless to darn
them in the ordinary way. Place a
piece of silk of the same color under
meath and darn the stockings to it.
