The Feminine Touch


 A story has been going the rounds de- scrlbing the success of an American wom- an architect She has accomplished pro- digious studies; she plans slSyscraper of flee buildings and personally superntends their construction, climbing over steel beams high in the air. Finally, to con- vince the public that this woman archi- tcct has triumphed perfectly over sex distinction in her profession, the story re- lates that her atelier in New York city Is "vold of the least feminine touch"
 What is the feminine touch? Is the world forever to believe that it is drapes on the mantlepiece and fringed dolles eternally accompanying our daily bread? Is the work Of the twentieth century woman never feminine except when 1t is superfiuousy decorative? What but the feminine touch perfected tho discovery of raJium? It was by means of the feminine touch that Florence Nightingale and her long line of successors have diminished that great horror of war-human suffering on the battlefield. 1t was the feminine touch that achieved the fame of George Eliot, of George Sand. It was the fem ln!Ee touch that accomplished the success of Rose Bonheur. It is the feminine touch which sustains at once the art and the magnificent power of endurance of Sarah Eernhardt. In word, everything that has honor ably distinguished woman in her under traings through all times Is the feminine touch.

When the moon lifts over the hilltop, and tho night winds whisper low, And the lilies In the garden are white as drifted snow, And the maple boughs sway softly in their rhymthmic to and fro, Then down to the orchard gateway In the thrall of dreams I go. For our waking dreams are stronger than the dreams that throng in sleep; There's more melody in silence than in music chorded deep; Though the hours creep round the dial. loves pulse may make them leap; Ard the reaper's richest harvest is not what his hands may reap. And so, when over the hilltop the moon Is a globe of gold, And the lilies in the garden by its light are aureoled, I go to the orchard gateway, where the dews gleam clear and cold. And dream-oh. priceless guerdon-tha | you to my heart I hold.

 When it comes to colors, the new cafe shade is decidedly the thing. Like all French colors, it is one of those exclusive ones that baffle description. It is not so deep as tan, nor so vivid as yellow but shade darker than cream. Fumes, felt hats, velyets and silks-al are be- ing made in this evasive, yet attractive new shade.
 A little cone-shaped felt of this color has a facing of seal, the glossy sheen of the fur forming a pretty contrast with the felt. Here, too, a single gorgeous plume is the only trimming.
 Judging from the display in many of the shop windows and in the magazines, one would think that small, close-fitting hats alone would Ee worn and that the tall statuesque beauty who looks best in hat with a decided brim would be left en- tirely out of it. But this is a mistake. As many. large hats will be worn this year as last perhaps more.

 And as such, Dorothy had her finger on the pulse of the "caged hens,' but she couldn't stand not being able to sage Johnny, and conquer his newly sprouting spirit of freedom.
 Dorothy was a 'Sufragette" at heart. She meant that men should bow to her, and that she should have her own way vote and all.
 'Hins," she presently delivered herself to those In the coop, this is going to be q surprise. Just be quiet until l come back! You ain't goin' to be sorry.'
