Aneients Wore Sheath Gowns.

II need not be supposed that even
feminine fashions can evolve some
thing new under the sun. A learned
Psychologist discloses that the sheath
gown was popular among the ladies OF
the Nile Is centuries before the Chris
tian era. One gown was made Of fine
linen, adorned with elaborate designs.
The professor thinks that the slit in
the side was intended to display the
wearer's precious anklets. These an
cient ladies also dressed their hair
deliberately with puffs and padding
They painted their faces and lips, as
shown by rouge and pomade jars. All
of this is reassuring to man who may
have thought that some of the modern
developments OF the dressmaker were
without precedent in their eccen-
tricity. Once more is demonstrated
the fit coupling of the words "eter-
nal" ana feminine"

STAMPS OF German oome.t,es.

Each week there is pasted in the
little blank book that every servant
girl in Germany must possess a post
age stamp to the value of about Eve
cents.
This stamp is a donation compul-
sory under the German law, which the
mistress must afford the servant
Should the girl fall i'll, the stamps are
redeemed by the government, or the
servant may retain the stamps indefi-
nitely until, when she has attained .
ripe old age, the government pays her
premium for them.-The Sunday

Kate Greenaway clothes racks are
delightful bits OF furniture for the

small garments are arranged on a tall

Diet Of the Old.

A sane diet for person of 20 or 10
should be made up largely OF vege-
tables and fruit, some fish, some eggs,
little meat and simple cereals, If
there is no inclination toward obesity.
Drinking with ones meals is not
considered advisable, especially as IL
guilds are apt to wash down the food
before 1t is properly masticated. Two
quarts of water, or more, should be
taken between meals, however. during
the day. Hot water is especially good
for one who does not exercise much,
as It fushes out the entire system.
Stimulants. such as tea and coffee,
should not be very strong

GENEROSITY OF ALDRICH.
Republican candidates for Congress
boast of the generosity of Senator
Aldrich in permitting a large number
of articles to 60 on the free list in the
new tariff law. And Democratic
candidates are telling what the free
list really consists of. Some of the
things that the generous Rhode Island
statesman permitted on the free list
were ioss-sticks, bladders, dried
blood and horse hair. Then there
are birds eggs, lemon juice, turtles
and junk. Also acorns, bones,
ashes, zaffer, cat-gut, fossils, Bra
lillian pebbles and oakum!
EXPENSIVE HORSESHOEING!
One hundred and forty dollars for
street car tickets; $237.66 for horse
shoeing; $429.55 for soap and
brushes! These are a few of the
small expenditures of the state de.
partment of the government in 1909.
The horseshoeing item is a gem as
a sample of the much boosted Taft
policy of "cut-to-the-quick" economy
The item of s237.66 refers to the
shoeing of four horses for one year
