The skirt was composed of a crossed
tunic, which started from the shout

edge of this drapery was outlined by
a turned-back band of black satin
dotted with a delicate embroidery.
Cream alencon lace formed the
guimpe, which was outlined by two
slender bands of violet velvet touched
with gold. A pointed collar Of black
satin, embroidered to match the band
of the tuinc drapery, furnished the
harmonious whole.

eyes. Various authorities have as
serted that oliver Cromwell, Raphael
and George Eliot had dark eyes, but
a search of some thoroughness fails
to verify these statements.
The retreating chin, the low fore
head and the small nose have fallen
under the ban. Yet there have been
many great and good men who have
had one or all of these supposed dis
advantages.
In point of fact, genius has resided
in the most unpromising human
frames. Some have been tall, others
short. Large features. small fea-
lures; red hair, black hair, eyes
of all colors, noses of all shapes; a
merry or a morose disposition-gen
ius may go with any one of them.
Therefore, let no mother worry
about her children. Their looks may
be against them, but they may be
geniuses for all that

TRIMMINGS

A FTER selecting one of the many
a beautiful fabrics that the fash
= ions are weaving for you, you
are confronted with the problem OK
trimming the dress. Over in arts
the designers have provided for all
colors, lines and combinations, and
wealth of trimming is shown for
your benefit.
First, there are gorgeous beaded
those of last year-and who could
imagine anything to surpass the
beadwork of the spring? But the
seemingly impossible has been accom-
plished.
Garnitures, boleros, tunics, motifs
and bands are made of chiffon, net,
maline, and beaded in Oriental color
ings and rich effects.
Besides the beaded accessories
there are fringes of beads that are
convincing and tempting in their
beauty.
Fringes of silk, of chenille and of
Irish crochet lace and balls are also
in vogue. This trimming is perhaps
the most persistent factor in all plans
of the French designers.
Exquisite embroideries are offered
to your inquiring eye. Here are bands
of net embroidered in ribbon that
gives raised effects in flowers, which
are much used in the quaint Louis
modes. Then there are combinations
of silk and beads
The vogue for chenille embroidery
is emphasized in the majority OF
cases. Closely related to this is the
favoritism accorded to silk embroid-
cry
imitation Jewels are used on trim
mings for decorating evening gowns.
Rhinestones that are of expensive
quality are combined with coral and
sapphires in wonderful designs on or
naments for dress.
Gold and silver metallic effects
are exploited by many modistes, and
for evening especially they will hold
important place.

m N the works of scores of writers is
to be found some saying, put
sometimes in one form, some

there are SO many exceptions that one

Fictitious element, who try to look
singular; in the fear, seemingly, that
if they do not wear long hair or
queer clothes they may be mistaken
for ordinary people. They do not
count, in the accurate classification
One Of our brilliant contempor-
aries has lately announced, with a
great flourish of trumpetS, that no
dark-eyed man has ever risen to the
first rank of greatness. The genuine
geniuses are all blue-eyed, according
to this gentleman, and no matter how
beautiful you may consider the dark
orbs of your bright boy, you may as
well lay aside all vaulting ambitions
for him. He can never amount to
anything very much unless you can
get the color of his eyes changed
which even the beauty experts have
not yet learned how to do
You can have your nose built over
and your skin taken of by bits and
entirely replaced by new. You can
lose your hair and teeth and the
world need never know it; but If
your eyes are black. no human art
can give them the blue of the con-
queror.
It is an ascertained historical fact
that julius Caesar had dark eyes.
Perhaps our own Daniel Webster
does not belong in the first rank, but
surely his eyes were very dark.

Fresh BroiIed Pipeons.

First clean and prepare pigeons,
then split open the backs; cut the
legs at the first joints and run them
through the skin so that the ends
come out on the inside; dip the birds
in beaten eggs, roll them in bread

knead butter, chopper parsley, and
lemon juice together. Spread some
on pigeon when dished. Serve hot.

Apple Butter.

Cook two parts apple and one part

it will cook without scattering the

take two parts seeded grapes and one
part apple run through colander.
Apple gives a much better flavor to
the grapes.
