The pupils of the Arden school are
very much enthused over then vic
tory for their teacher and are going in
to the carnival with good deal Of
spirit Nearly all the boys are large
enough to ride horse back and they
are going to form a guard for the
queen and will be seen in the process
sion The school also expects to
have some other features for the car

It is gradually being noised about
that some of the organizations of the
city, particularly the Knights of Pyth-
las, Woodmen, Juniors, Y. M. c. A.
Red Men and Firemen are quietly
working on plans for floats and other
participation in the parade. There
seems to be some rivalry among these
orders and they are keeping their
plans very quiet. If these organiza-
tons are at work Martinsburg may be
assured of something unique in the pa
rade
Hampshire and Mononghalia coun-
ties have sent in here their exhibits in
class and will go after the $500
prize This class requires three bar
rels and five boxes.
A great deal of fruit is coming into
storage now for the exhibit and every
thing promises much larger exhibit
of fruit this year than last.
Very little is heard OF the carnival
but things are shaping themselves for
a big affair and there is no likelihood
that anyone will be disappointed

PRETTY FORM OF embroidery
BULGARIAN Work Is Extremely Popular
for the Furnishings Of the
Ordinary Bedroom.

Bulgarian embroidery on linen Is
now very popular for the small fur
nishings Of bedrooms OF a certain
style. This sort Of decoration is not
suitable for an excessively dainty pink
and white or all white apartment, for
the colors employed are vivid and the
designs striking. Added to this, the
embroidery is at It's best on rather
heavy linen, a richer or more delicate
fabric not making nearly 80 attractive
a background. There are many girls
especially those away at school, VINO
have their rooms furnished In a
fashion which requires some touches
Of bright color, and for these the Bull
garian embroidered fittings or one or
two pieces Of 1t are very satisfactory.
It is particularly good for boys rooms
at school or college, because 1t has
much more sturdy look than most
linen articles.
Red. blue and green on the natural
linen is the usual color harmony
Some Of the pieces, however, are dec
GRATED with only one or two OF these
colors. Red and blue or green and
red on the linen color are perhaps
more attractive combinations than
that Of the three colors. Pillows
table and bureau scarfs and bags are
made Of the linen decorated in this
fashion.

Crest: A boards head, couped,

Motto: Cura ct Constantia-Care

Prudence and Sincerity, is another
motto Of the family. over Fork Over,
however, is the Cunningham motto,
par excellence, and the story about it
is interesting. A certain one, named
Malcolm, assisted Malcolm, prince OF
Scotland, afterwards Malcolm Can
more, to escape from Macbeth. Being
pursued, the prince took shelter In q
barn, where Malcolm concealed him
by forking hay over him. From this
circumstance, his posterity, who took
the name Of Cunningham, from q
grant made to Malcolm Of the thane-
dom Of Cunningham, took a shake
fork for charge upon their shield,

This Is a plausible theory, at any
rate, regarding the founding Of the
family and takes US back to the

THERE is something delightfully."-
quaint and picturesque about a
taffeta gown-they seem always
to be associated with lavender and rue
and bits of old lace. It is this old
time air, together with an adorable
primness not lacking chic, that makes
taffeta one Of the fashionable silks OF
the day.
The new taffetas are delightfully."-
soft in texture and wonderful in color.
TIE favorites are the chameleon ef-
fects-at moments a beautiful sub
dued seemingly one-tone fabric, then
at turn of the silk flashing into bril-
liancy, a marvel of changing lights.
The changeable silks of lovely color
shot with gold or silver are the most
exquisite, but for gowns for day wear
such as are sketched, two colors are
best, and lovely combinations they
are, too.

Of high commission.

make no showing upon revolutionary
rosters, but II we search the records,
there are marriage connections which
land US safely within the fold Of some
patriotic societies. For example,:
Elizabeth Davies, born 1853, Of the
fourth generation from John, married
Capt. David Judson Of the continental
army. They had ~ children. Capt
Judson held other Offices and is a good
all-around ancestor.
High courage and great energy are
characteristics Of the Davies, also
vigorous minds. Generosity is another
! characteristic.
To get rich quick has never been
a controlling passion Of the family.
It is said Of one Of the Davies, and
Is applicable to many Of the name,
that "he avoided all rash speculations,
and made no efforts to obtain extrava-
CANT returns from his investments
but was content to secure such mod
crate recompense as is sure to fol-
low the exercise of industry, perse-
verance and patience, directed by fore
sight and prudence, and his course
guided by those principles, was one
Of assured and uninterrupted sue

NEW PARASoLS ARE COSTLY
Possible to Spend Any Amount One
May Desire on deliberately
Carved Handle.

The quality of unobtrusiveness Is
not the most characteristic one OF
many of the new parasols. The han
dies of many of these are most re-
markable, and never has there been n
season when greater opportunities for
expenditure in this line were offered.
Carved ivory figures in full relief may
cost any amount that one cares to
give If an effort is made to secure
genuine works of art, for which, In
deed, it may be necessary to resort to
the antique.
At least there is every incentive to
do so II one has the money, now that
carved ivory figures as parasol han
dies are among the latest suggestions
of fashion. Those which have SO faI
been imported are delicate figures
of piquant maidens, but the fad opens
the way to any amount Of rivalry II
the effort to secure exquisite NINA
ture figures that shall be unique ant
particularly suited to ones style.
There are also colored horn handles
among the latest importations. These
are made Of the same semi-translucent
material that was once so much used
for fancy combs. The designs are oi
heads in quaint poke bonnets, etc.
and the colors are dark green, amber
tortoise shell brown and dull darl
rose. There are also heads In ivory
among the new handles.

corals and small parasols.
The parasol, by the way, must not
match the gown in color. Rather, 1t
catches up some vivid note Of color
in the trimming Of the gown, perhaps
wee bit in the girdle, note In the
embroidery, or even q flower at the
belt. Putting, quilting and ruchings
are the usual trimming for the taf-
feta frocks, two Of which are shown
in the sketch, with a silk suit, each
one of the favorite changeable effects
in attractive combinations. The first
sketch is of royal blue and black
changeable taffeta, with black satin
buttons and white lace collar. The
central sketch is a simple frock in
lovely shades of rose and corn color,
with cream lace frills and a black
satin tie.
The gown in the remaining sketch
is a green and lilac shaded tafeta'
with white embroidered linen revers,
net guimpe and black satin trimming
The skirt is finished with frill ruche

It is hard to convince some people

lay their bad feelings to almost every

But the doctor knows. His wide ex-

poison that undermines the health.

Merwyn, king of Powys of Wales, is
the progenitor of one line Of Davies
the line that starts in the country
with John Davies Of Connecticut.
Madoc Of Meredith, prince OF Powys
Fadoc, sixth descent from Merwyn'
was the father Of Cymric Efell, lord
Of Eylwys Eyle, 1900 A. D., from
whom an unbroken descent is claimed.
These names rather take away ones
breath, but by 1851 we come to the
names Davies and breathe easier.
The Davies of Gwysany (Mold'
F1intshirt, England), have ranked for
centuries among "the first families" OF
North Wales.
In 1851 the name first appears as
Davies, when Robert ap. David OF
Gwysany assumed 1t as his patrony-
mic. To him was granted the arms,
crest and motto now used by the
Davies, who trace back to the Con-
necticut forebear. This 10 the coat

The name of another Robert Davies
appears among those deemed quaiined
for the knighthood of the Royal Oak.
He was born 1906, and married Anne,
daughter of Sir Peter Mytton.
Colonel Thomas Davies, uncle OF
Robert, was constable Of Hawarden
eastle-the home now of the Glad
stones.
The lord mayor Of London In 1876
was Sir Thomas Davies. He was son
of John Davies, a bookseller, who was

There is nothing in all the world
SO important as children, nothing SO
interesting. II you ever wish to go In
for some philanthropy, If you ever
wish to be of any real use In the
world, do something for children. II
you ever yearn to be truly wise, study
children. We can dress the sore
bandage the wounded, imprison the
criminal, heal the sick and bury the
dead, but there is always a chance
that we can save a child. II the great

Colored handkerchiefs have a fair
chance of being used more than white
ones. The newest of these are In
polka-dot designs. The dot is Of col
ors on a white ground, or just the
other way around. There is a tiny
selvedge of the color.
Other colored handkerchiefs have
stripes to form squares over the sur
face; others have q border Of color
with the initial embroidered in a col
ored circle. The butterfly and other
ornaments in colors have given place
to the initial and the circle.
