The Semidress,

The simple bodice, with the low
shoulder finished by wide hem and
the full-length close-fitting sleeves at
tached to the lining of the bodice, is
feature of some of the newest frocks,
although the majority Of gowns show
the elbow-length peasant sleeve such
as we have worn for some time past
This sleeve and the modified peasant
sleeve will undoubtedly be worn dur
ing the summer. The skirts of all
semi-dressy frocks escape the ground
all around and are as narrow as ever.
They are made either quite simple
and trimmed with a row of ball but
tons down the entire length of the
front, a smart new feature, or they
have the knee-deep tunic.-Harper's

She Made Her Furs.

Some very pretty afternoon and
evening scarfs and muffs have been
made by girls, using fur and marabout
trimmings left over from former
years. One girl had yards of swans
down that had trimmed her first party
cloak. She cut the bands in half
lengthwise, making a band a little
over an inch wide. This she sewed on
the edges of scarf of fawn-color chif.
fon cloth, with two bands at even in.
tervals between the edges. She made
also big, soft muff to match with the
swansdown bands. The hat she
wears with these is of white beaver
with a white marabout band and
standing feather at the left.-Harper'a
Bazaar.

Steamed Beets,

Beets may be cooked in this way in
about the same time that it takes tc

compromise between baking and boil
ing them. To bake them Is not 6
very economical method when the
work must be done by gas, yet by this
method they retain every bit of theil
sweetness and delicate flavor. 1t Is
best to use a little water in the par
when baking them, go they are thus
partly steamed. Unless they are GOV
cred by another pan, in which case
the steaming process is more complete
they will need to be turned frequent
ly, but not with fork, for this makes
them bleed. A pancake turner is the
best thing to use.

COMPARTMENTS IN THE BAG
One of the Newest and Most Welcome
of the Many Recent Fads
of Fashion.

If you once have owned a fourfold
bag you will never again be without
one. Into the separate compartments
can go buttons, hooks and eyes, thread
and sewing utensils and small piece
of work, and there is no wild hunting
for the article needed as in a one
piece bag.
These bags may be made in any
size, but convenient size is made
from a yard and three-quarters of
fiveinch flowered ribbon with colored
satin edges. Cut the ribbon into four
strips of equal length, double each
strip and overcast the edges together
to form a small bag. Turn in the top
to the depth of an inch for the head
ing and run with double line of sew
ing for casing.
Use two yards of number one or
baby satin ribbon for a drawstring,
cutting in separate yard pieces. Rip
the stitches on the outside of the
casing between the line of sewing, and
run the drawstring through the out
side of each of the four bags. tying
the ends in fluffy bow. Start the
other drawstrings at the opposite end
with two bags to each side and run
around the four, using the inner side
of the casing. Tie ends in a bow.
To keep the bags from sliding on
the drawstring, tack the two on each
side together. running a stitch or
two in the frill just above the casing.
This makes them draw easily on one
string.

Pot Roast,

Take any kind of meat, put into an
iron pot tablespoonful Of meat fry
ings or butter; let 1t brown; wash
off the roast and put it into the pot.
After it begins to fry pour in enough
water to half cover the meat; season
with pepper and salt, cover and stew
slowly. AS the meat begins to fry
add more water; turn it often and
cook about three hours. A half hour
before serving add either Irish or
sweet potatoes or turnips and let
them brown with the meat.

One of the most beautiful women in

Beauty of itself cannot bring hap

woman who possesses it. One cannot
be beautiful forever, and love that
centers only round a woman's beauty
turns to hate when she grows old.

MANNER OF DEATH
IS STILL UNKNOWN

How Joseph Pons met his death will
probably never be known.
In his verdict filed this afternoon
in the county clerks office, Coroner
Pierce states that Pons either deliber-
ately threw himself under the rear
trucks of the Ohio and Electric interur-
ban on South Eighth street; that he
accidentally slipped under the trucks,
or that he had stopped to pick up
something which he had dropped at
the side Of the tracks and was struck
by the car in such a manner as to
throw him under it,
On this subject the coroner says:
at is concluded that the said Joseph
Pons met his death either from choice
or as a result of an accident for which
he alone was responsible. No blame
can be attached to the railway en-
ployes as the car was practically at
rest when the said Pons fell under or
threw himself under the car and al

FATE OF LEWIS IN
HANDS OF THE JURY
Attorneys Finished Their Ar
pument in Assault Case
This Afternoon.

The case of the state versus Jack
Lewis, charged with criminal assault,
viii go to the jury this afternoon. Each
side was given one and one-half hours
in which to sum up all evidence and
present its final arguments.
The defense rested at 10 o'clock this
morning. Will Keller, special assistant
prosecutor, opened the final argument
for the state. He was followed by the
two attorneys for the defense and
Prosecutor Allen will close the states
argument.
During the morning session when
the states attorneys cross examined
defense witnesses, Lewis smiled at
questions asked by the former.
Once, becoming angry at question
asked by Prosecutor Allen, the defen-
dant interrupted but was quoted by
his counsel.
In rebuttal the prosecution recalled
Edith Moon, the eleven-year-old girl
whom it Is alleged the actor assaulted
The prosecution did not call John
Moon, the father, who made out the
AFFIDAVIT, or Clara Moon, the mother.

PLAIN LINES MOST POPULAR
This Seasons Linen Suits Are Made
With None or Very Little
Trimming.

While the coarser linens are used
those made Of the finer twisted thread
are liked quite as well. Very little
trimming is needed. The lace collar
and cuffs or the lingerie frill at neck
and wrists suffice, though. Of course,
buttons and buttonholes. lace and EN-.
broidery may figure as trimmings.
Oddly Of cut is, however. the only
thing necessary for those who wish
something different. 1t Is surely diff.
ferent enough to have the back OF the
coat and skirt cut across on the bias
or otherwise manipulated. Yet, such
manipulations offer no difficulties to
the laundress. These suits may be
made coat and skirt fashion or in the
coat and dress effect. Both styles
have their good points, many consid.
ering the former the most economical,
since fresh blouse may be dOnned
as often as the wearer pleases. And

in linen and kindred veaves. The sc.
verify OF these all.in-one gowns is be-
ginning to disappear. While the puffs
seen on taffetas are not available there
are pipings. inlayings and bands In
contrasting fabrics.
Fancy linens and linens with open.
work borders are effectively utilized,
though one who is at all clever at de-
signing will be able to achieve very
fine suits with the plain sorts. It's
the design. cut and finish that counts,

MANS LANGUAGE TO BRUTEs
Peculiar Click and chlrp Used to start
and Hasten Horses Used In
Many Parts Of World.

The tale Of the farmer in the Ara
bian Nights who could understand the
language OF animals and fowls in his
barnyard probably had it, origin In
the ancient myth which asserted that
In primitive times men and beasts
were able to converse together.
In truth. az everybody knows. there
are certain sounds. or words. which
horses. dogs and other animals can be
taught to understand; and. on the 9th.
er hand. some Of the sounds utteged
by domestic animals have q meaning
that man can understand. All this II.
of course. very different thing from
language. and yet II has q certain
scientific interest. evidenced by the
various Investigations that have been
made.
1t has been shown. for instance. with
reference to the language used in talk
ing to domestic animals that people
unconsciously attempt to lower their
language by abbreviations. etc. to the
comprehension of brutes. very much
as they do when they talk to young
children. A curious fact is that the
peculiar click and chirp used to start
and to hasten the movements Of
horses are employed in widely sepa-
rated parts OF the world. but some
times In a reverse sense. In India.
for example. those sounds are used
to stop instead OF to start horses.
