NEW STYLElHI WAISTS
GREAT VARIETY Of DESIGNS NOW
BEING SHOWN,
New Rordered ChIffons, Mafquisettss
and Crepes Being Pressed into
Blouse Service With Good Re-
suts-Veiied Blouse Popular.

The shops Just now are showing
great variety of new waists and among
them the yelled blouse has not been
forgotten. These In simple lines are
made to have new air and a susges-
ton of warmer days by touch OF en-
broidered batiste or linen used in place
of lace. A yoke and cuffs with an in
sertion in the front and back, give
springlike air. The lovely new bordered
chiffonS, marquisettes and CTepes are
also pressed into blouse service with
excellent results. The striped silk
tailor-made blouse is very much in evil
dence and it is fashioned Of striped tai
feta or wash silk, the black and white,
blue and white and lavender and white
blouses are very dainty looking. They
are simply made with few tucks over
the shoulders for fulness, frill down
the left front, rather scant bishop
sleeves and a high stock Of the same
silk, finished with a little bow In front
Striped linens and mems shirtings are
also much used for these tailored
waists. The dressmakers say that
bretelles are going to be very much in
vogue for the spring and summer sea
son. They come in an entirely new
style and give very original touch OF
q gown. They can be worn with any
kind of a costume They are made of
velvet ribbon or any other ribbon and
may be in black, white or colors.
The new bretelles are passed under
the belt and are finished back and front
with a large silk tasseI. They look
particularly we'll with separate waist
and skirt, and in this case they are
best made OF either black velvet or
satin, and finished with heavy black
silk tassels. The ribbon used is usual
ly three inches wide.
Hats made of plaid straw are very
much worn in Paris and it Is predicted
that they will be popular on this side
too Those composed Of black and
white plaid straw and trimmed with
big loops or wings Of the same straw,
will appear first.
Many of the hats are as rfdiculously
small as they have been large in the
past, and toque and turban forms are
the preferred ones. 1t is, however quite
possible that there will be a reaction,
since the very small hat is not becom-
ing to every woman and the best
dressed woman seeks something which
Is becoming rather than the latest
styles. For the aIl-fower hats gerani-
ums and violets are the leading milli-
merry flowers
Some of the very high toques are
made of heavy white lace on a wire
and maine frame. They are trimmed
with big loops of white and black silk
ribbon.
Spring suits are made of black and
white mohatr. Many OF the new mohair
suits are braid trimmed, and the new
mode buckles are very effective
Many Of the new belts have their
buckles made Of satin, or silk. or they
are finished with big medallions OF silk
or with fiat padded pieces that are
handworked in Oriental colors Bead
ed belts are much seen.

All the Difference,

If, as we look out In the world, we
see few people that we know and
all the rest strangers" we are apt to
shrink from it; and If we do, our Of
fishness IS apt to be reciprocated. But
IL we really have in US the sentiment
of the old-time philosopher, who
thought nothing human quite alien to
himself, it makes a vast difference,
and the world, instead of being full of
strangers. becomes straightway full Of
folks--Harper' Magazine.

BY that time Bella had seen how

sweetly (of course. the court had
given her back her name), ''and |

She rolled her eyes at him, and
could see she was making an impres,

had perfect right to marry again,
but l will say this: Bella is a lot bet
ter looking by electric light than she
is the next morning.
The upshot of it was that the gen
tleman who built bridges and looked
down on society from lofty, lonely
pinnacle agreed to help one Of the
most cleaning members Of the afore-
said society to outwit the law.
1t took about Is minutes to quiet
the policeman Nobody ever knew
what Mr. HARRISON did to him, but
for "a hours he was quite tractable.
He changed after that, but that comes
later in the story. Anyhow, the Har-
bison man went upstairs and came
down with a Bagdad curtain and
cushion to match. and took them into
the furnace room, and came out and
locked the door behind him, and then
we were ready for Bella's escape.
But there were four special officers
and three reporters watching the
house as a result of Max Reeds idiocy.
Once, after trying all the other win
dOws and finding them guarded, we
discovered a little bit of a hole in an
out of-the-way corner that looked like
a yentilator and was covered with
heavy wire screen. No prisoners ever
dug their way out of a dungeon with
more energy than that with which we

HOW TO CARE FOR The FEET
Nothing SO Good as Alcohol Rub After
Pedal Extremlties Have Been
Chilled

No other part of the body except the
waist suffers so much abuse and distor
ton as the feet. They are susceptible
to all sorts Of deformities and the sub
iect of all sorts Of neglect.
Many people do not battle them suf
ficiently often, do not change their
stockings with ficient frequency and
do not care for them in other ways as
they should
The soldier who cares for his feet Is
the one who holds out on the march,
and many foreign armies have doctors
who see that the men care for their
feet, The dead skin which hardens and
produces callous spots needs to be re-
moved twice day If the feet perspire
freely.
To rub the feet with alcohol refresh
es them wonderfully, and nothing is as
good for them as vigorous alco
mol rub after they have been wet or
chilled.
A rub with cocoa butter is a fine
thing for the feet at all times Get a
cake of this and give them a five
minute ruD at least once week AFTER
the daily bath and you will save your
self many groan.
We should wear rubbers whenever
we need them and take them off as
soon as we can. The feet must be
kept warm and dry.
A famous physician Is reported as
saying that his income would dwindle
TO a half II women kept their feet
warm. And it may, be added that

shoes, care for them and her feet prop
erly and try to have everybody else
do the same.-New York Mail.

with excitement the next. And when
| the wire was cut, and Bella had rolled
| her coat up and thrust It through, and
was standing on a chair ready to fol
| low, something outside that had looked
| like a barrel moved and said, "Oh, l
wouldn't do that If l were you. 1t
| would be certain to be undignifed,
! and probably it would be unpleasant
| later"
We coaxed and pleaded and tried
to brIbe. and that happened, as 1t
| turned out, to be one Of the worst
things that we had to endure. For the
whole conversation came out the next
afternoon in the paper, with the most
awful drawings. and the reporter said
it was the flashing of the jewels we
wore that first attracted his attention.
And that brings me back to the rob-
berry.
For when we had crept back to the
kitchen, and Bella was fumbling for
her handkerchief to cry into and the
HARRISON man was trying to apollo
gize for the language he had used to
the reporter. and | was on the verge
of a nervous chill-well it was then
that Bella forgot all about crying and
Jumped and held out her arm.
My diamond bracelet she screech-
ed Look, I've lost it.
Well, we went over every inch Of
that basement, until l knew every
crack in the flooring every spot on the
cement And Bella was nasty, and said
that she had never seen that part or
the house in such condition, and that
if l had acted like a sane person and
put her out, when she had no bust
ness there at all she would have had
her freedom and her bracelet and
that if we were playing q Joke on her
Cas if we felt like jokingD We would
please give her the bracelet and let
her go and die in a corner; she felt
very queer.

Mob Doctrine.

A few days ago two little white
boys in town in the state of Ken
lucky were out in a barn and the
older one, at the age of about four
teen, decided to show the younger
brother, who was about nine years
old, how to conduct a lynching. The
older boy proceeded to tie the rope
around his own neck, climbed upon
the rafters in the barn and tied the
rope around one of the rafters. Just
about that time he slipped and went
headlong down to the end of the
rope, and IN reality demonstrated to
his brother how lynching could be
conducted in his fathers barn. The
screams of the younger boy attracted
the mother, only to find her older
son dead This is not the first in
stance in which white boys have come
to their death in this manner, and ii
shows how thoroughly the white peo
pie of America are instilling into
their children the mob doctrine. In
stead of decreasing it seems to be in
creasing, for the actions of these chill
dren is proof sufficient that the moi
doctrine is taught around the freside
and that it is considered by the white
people of this country to be a sacred
duty they owe their children. AND
what is the result? From Maine tt
California, and from the Lakes to the
Gulf there is not a community il

SERMON

Special to the Globe:
Hendersonville, Tenn, Aug. 20
The Sons and Daughters of Abraham
held their annual sermon here Sun
day under the auspices of Mt. Calva-
ry Lodge No. g. The sermon was
preached by Rev. Moore, of Nashville.
Grand Master w. w. Williams acted
as master of ceremonies and deliv-
cred strong address at the conclu-
sion of the sermon. He stated that
the Grand Session recently held in
Nashville was the grandest in the his
tory of the order. Many new mem
bers had been added and the financial
conditions we're better than they had
ever been before The delegates were
so we'll pleased with the reports that
they reelected all of the old officers.
Grand Master Williams was elected
almost unanimously.
