YOUR PLACE.

When you have found your place,
you will be happy in it-contented,
joyous. cheerful, energetic.
The days will be all too short for
you. Dinner time and closing time
will come before you realize it.
All your faculties will give their
consent to your work; will say
Amen" to your occupation. There
will be no protest anywhere in your
nature.
You will not feel Inundated be-
cause you are farmer, or black
smith, or a shoemaker: because,
whatever your occupation or profess
sion you will be an artist instead OF
an artisan.
You will not apologize because you
are net this or that, because you will
have found your place and will be
satisfied.
You will feel yourself growing In
your work, and your life broadening
and deepening.
Your work will be perpetual tom
ic to you There will be no drudgery
in It.
You will go to your task with de-
light and leave 1t with regret.
Life will be glory, not grind.

FASHION NOTES.

New waists are built upon the
most generous lines.
Stripes prevail In the latest French
iannels. and some OF them are highly
effective.
For smart travelling wraps soft
black taffeta chiffon is being used, Of
ten ,:iced with delicately colored silk
or creps de chine.
Many OF the seasons girdles are
high in front, though they actually en-
circle the waistline once more. A
white satin model OF this type shows
a richly embroidered and braided Cir
die.
Since tho one-toned costume adds
an appearssce of height, Dame Fash
ion now DEGREES that the separate
waist shall be OF the same color as
the skirt, whether II be OF net. chiffon
or other material.
The new feature Of yachting and
motoring coats is tho open side fitted
with loops and buttons, which may
or may not be closed.
Muffs are to be as large as they
have ever been.
New materials are rough for street
and crepe and dull finished for the
house.
Fur is to be generously used on
many OF the afternoon as well as dn
dress tailormades.
The newest NUNS are finished with
dangling heads and tails that almost
sweep the ground.
Braiding upon coats has lost none
OF IT'S vogue, and all manner or orig
inal results are gained by It's COM
bInation with silk cordings, rat-tail
buttons and made ornaments.
New stoles are of chiffon, edged
with fur to match the mum. This is
the nrst season that this type OF
stole has appeared and II is expected
that Il will DC very fashionable.
The tucked sleeve Is smaller than
the one which Is plain, and either
may be made In the full or shorter
length.
Black will be much used, not only
IN daytime but evening toilets dur
ing the coming season.

Mrs. Ruth Bryan Leavitt has shown
her good sense for refusing the re-
quest OF Nebraska clubwomen TO run
for the House of Representatives.
Her refusal is In the nature OF a
rebuke 10 a feminine element in Ne
brasl1a that has been growing more
and more assertive in the political
field. The woman's club in Nebraska
exists chiefly to NEEDLE in political
affairs, and Mrs. Leayitt Is not the
first woman who has been petitioned
to run for public Office. AS re-
suit there is a strong prejudice form
ing against women's clubs In general
Mrs. Leavitt well knows that no pur-
pose would be gained II by any
chance she were elected, and that
her troubles would begin when she
attempted to take q seat In We.shing

about a position which pays only a
few thousands a year, and is held for
brief periods at the within OF the

IN connection stherewith. seems 10
point to the possible occurrence OF a
fatality.
Not long ago the Minnie Mac. own.
ed by Norman Macdonald, visited
Isle Royale, with party of fishermen
who' landed at Little Soskowitt Bay
proceeded up stream for some dis
lance to fish. when couple of miles
up the stream, one of the members OF
the party called attention to a pecu-
liar putrid odor which tainted the air
slightly, and which hef said smelIed
like decaying flesh. II was presumed
that possibly the smell arose from the
carcasses of lynx or wild cat, which
might have been shot and after be-
Ing skinned, left lying I'm the woods.
No further attention was given the
matter, therefore until n little later
when near the mouth OF the stream,
complete outfit of high grade fish
ing tackle was found lying abandoned
on the rocks, the hook badly rusted
and the leader in which the hook had
laid, being so rusted that It broke in
the hand when picked up. The outfit
to be an expensive one,
worth twenty-five or thirty dollars,
comprising jointed, silk wrapped pole.
with ivory handle. reels, baskets,
belt, and other equipment such as
one would not be apt to carlessly for
get or recklessly abandon.
The finding of the outfit recalled the
doors that had been noticed further
upstream, and the idea of making
search was suggested but owing to
the swampy nature OF the country,
and the danger of breaking through
the bog which made travelling diff
cult, such an undertaking seemed i'm
practicable and the idea was aban-
Toned. The outfit appeared to have
been lying where found for long
ime and was taken possession of by
Engineer DuMary of the Minnie Mac,
who now has it at his boat house in
vest Hancock.
