IRISH LACE STILL GOOD.

1t frequently happens that a fashion
or a preference il projected into an
other season. The vogue enjoyed by
Irish lace is to continue and women
grasp at the lavish hand with which
this elegance is being used.
Long coats Of the baby Irish are
here for pretty price. Shorter ones
are also to be worn, but the lingerie
and linen dresses are well covered
with the fine and heavy designs.
II is particularly effective and sensi-
BILE. for 1t withstands the wear Of the
tub on lingerie blouses. Underwear
has come under It's spell. and it bor-
ders on the trite to suggest the extern
sive use on neckwear.
For hats It Is used to give chic
contrast on black velvet, thereby bring
ing 1t into a becoming combination
with white costumes.
Little children's clothes are orna-
mented with the baby Irish. From the
finest OF edgings to wide lace for col
lars 1t seems to give an elegant touch
which is far from the over-dressy.
Little boots arc made over silk to be
worn on festive occasions, and even
the silk robe has its touch of Irish lace.
There Is another successful season
for this favorite.

Niaqara's Chanoe.

Any one who was familiar with the
appearance of the Niagara falls before
the present power installations were
built and opened can settle the ques-
ton as to whether the appearance of
the falls has been affected by going
to see for himself. Small though the
total amount of water taken for pow
er purposes in proportion to the total
amount passing over the falls may be.
1t has been sufficient to cause the shall
lower portions Of the overflow at the
edges Of the falls to become entirely
dry. thereby greatly reducing the to-
tai length Of the crest line.-Chicago

FOR THE CHILDREN
The Beautiful Rainbow.

We all love TO see the rainbow, and
we know that II Is formed by the sun
shining through the moisture I'm the
atmosphere, but mythology has differ
ent theories for It's existence.
The Scandinavians thought it was a
celestial bridge by which the gods
passed to and fro. 1t was doomed to
break down at the last day. Children
are still sometimes told that II they
will walk to the spot from which the
rainbow springs they will find a pot
Of gold. There was an idea that the
rainbow drew up water by means Of
two golden dishes. which 1t sometimes
let fall and which were secured By
lucky finders. A Black forest legend
asserted that the rainbow drew its wa
ter by a golden goblet and that a shoe
thrown into n rainbow would return
filed with gold.
to pass beneath n rainbow changed the
sex-made q man a woman or the re-
verse.
The Suabians when there is a double
rainbow say that it is the devil try
ing to initiate the work Of God
OF course we are all familiar with
the story OF the rainbow in the Bible,
where 1t symbolizes Gods promise to
Noah that mankind should never again
be visited with so terrible a food.

THE POKER.

Early Metal Workers.

AS the first fireplace was q circle Of

possessed the advantage of being

Wants a Clear Road.

The increased number of occasions
recently on which the kaiser has ap-
peared in the streets has caused a
large addition to the police force of
Berlin. On each of certain days in
the last few months the kaiser has
made no fewer than eight trips across
the city. and each time the whole dis
lance travelled by the royal automobile
has been policed by a. large number
OF uniformed and secret service men.
The kaiser has given strict orders that
under no circumstances must a COLI
sion between his automobile and an
other vehicle take place. This makes
It incumbent on the police to see that
all traffic is brought to a standstill so
that the rapidly travelling royal auto
mobile may not be damaged. AS the
kaiser always travels at a high speed
through even the most crowded
streets, the difficulties of the police are
many.
