GOOD OUTLOOK FOR FUTURE
Number Of College e-Trained Men in
Business Is of the Highest
Significance.

There was time when half the col.
lege graduates of America became
clergymen, and when the legal and
medical professions swallowed up
nearly all the other half, Now, less
than per cent of the men who com.
plete college courses go into the min.
istry and the three learned profes.
sions" together number only minor
ity of the college-trained population
Of the country.
This illustrates not only the rapid
spread of higher education in the Uni
ted States, but the way in which So
ciety is constantly differentiating into
more and more diverse occupations
Go back far enough in history, and
there was but one trained profession,
the ecclesiastical, In more recent
times there we're three-law, medicine
and the church, Today, no one knows
how many lines Of effort deserve the
name of learned"
In fact, business itself is rapidly ap-
preaching the status of a profession,
both in the learning required and in
the ethical standards which are being
set up to guide the business man. 1t
is this fact, quite as much as faith in
legal enactments and prohibitions,
which makes the average citizen look
for more fair play in the future than
ever has prevailed IN the past

When charIemanne look a Bath.

Like so many of the European
warm springs and bathing-places,
Baden.Baden was first appreciated by
the Romans Emperor Caracalla, in
especial honored it by his patron
age and adorned It in various Roman
ways. With the fall of the empire
and the arrival together Of the bar
barians and Christianity, bathing, and,
above all, bathing in warm water, fell
into disuse all over Europe as an en-
feebling and immoral practice. It was
only when Charlemagne, whose name
was one to conjure with, dipped his
imperial person in the hot springs Of
Aix-la- Chapelle that bathing after
seven centuries OF dlsuse, became
again permissible. if not almost de.
sirale. From that time on, with vary
ing fortunes. aden-Baden was a
health and pleasure resort.-IIarrison

Tor little ladies, from the baby girl to
l the miss entering upon her teens,
and for the miss in her teens, fasci'
mating lines of headwear have been
turned out. Those specialists who
look after the needs of children, up to
the time when they enter the ranks
Of young womanhood, have developed
this branch of millinery until America
may be conceded to lead in point OF
variety and to match In point Of excel
lence the products of all other coun'
tries.
In the group of headwear for little
girls shown here a bonnet and two
hats are pictured. The bonnet, for
little girl from three to five or six
years old, is quaint model, suggest
ing the fashions of bygone days for
grownups. 1t is of velvet, with silk
facing in the projecting brim at the
front. The bonnets of this type, with
soft puffed crowns, are made of silk,
plush, velvet, corduroy, and sometimes
of coatings The facings are in white

IN order to get clear idea of the
i different fashionable patterns in
face wells one must either see them
or see accurate reproductions of them.
1t is impossible to describe exactly
what few pictures OF the best pat
terms make plain enough. Here is

that are most popular just now:
Small hats and clustering weather
both invite the use of face wells. They
are indispensable for keeping the
hair in place about the face, and they
are vastly becoming. The faithful
ness with which enterprising manufac.
turers continue to produce new pat,

those that have proved most becoming
is a tribute to women. 1t shows how

tage of the becomingness of the veil.

his attention. From the doorway Of

bitter scowl wreathed his face and
he walked away from the spot amongst
the deep shade of the river path. At
that moment, as he realized that his
hand was against every man and ev-
cry mans hand against him, the
wealth that had come to him was as
worthless dross. There was a strug-
gle between his better nature and the
promptings Of his recent environment,

The next day Burnham started for
distant city. He carried with him the
satchel belonging to the man who
had saved his life. A change had
come over him. The first strong i'm.
preston Of his new life was the sight
OF the peaceful farm life, 1t fingered
like picture. The second was grati-
tude for the man who had given up
his life to save his own.
His thought ran rapidly. Sud
denly thrillIngly this outcast found
his existence directed into new chan.
nels. He had seen that his rescuer
was buried. Then he had opened the
satchel and inspected its contents
From that moment Mark Burnham be-
came Eli Walters.
For he felt II a sacred trust to take
up the life OF his rescuer where the
latter had lain 1t down. In the satchel
he found a little hoard of about two
hundred dollars. There were also let.
ters and papers. An appeal had
reached Walters from his brothers
widow, whom he had never seen. He
had decided to go to her. relieve her
necessities and devote his years to
care for her and her little family
Burnham found the Walters family
destitute, indeed lie had assumed
the identity of a relative they had
never seen and was accepted as the
real Uncle Eli. That hard heart of
his softened like wax as he employed
the 5000 to bring cheer and comfort
where there had been despair and suf-
fering The widow was sickly and al
most an invalid. There were five lit
tie children. Within a week the chill
dren were grouping about him as
though he we're a real father and the
widow was filled with gratitude and
hope.
For the first time, one day, Burnham
saw Ida Worth. She had been i'll for
a month and called while he was in
the house. From the first, her earnest,
patient face attracted him. lie learned
that she had practically supported the
widow and her family for several
months, but Illness had come and she
was now as poor as themselves. She
said the doctor had prescribed rest,
country air, but that was beyond
her attainment.
I'm going away for day or two"
Burnham told Mrs. Walters that eve
ming. MY dream-I will make 1t
true!" he pledged himself fervently.
Two weeks later Burnham conveyed
the Walters family and Miss Worth
to their new home, a lovely country
cottage. He had used his own money
to give to the widow a surety of pro-
vision for the rest of her life
Il am going away" he said to Ida
week later.
He noted that she changed color
and her lips fluttered, and he won
dered why
81 must tell you what the others
need not know" he continued sadly.
Il am not the uncle of those children"
and he told her all.
Then you are even a nobler man
than | thought" burst forth Ida i'm.
petuously.
Il am an ex-convict," and the rest
of the wretched story came out.
You have nobly redeemed your
self" breathed Ida. "Oh, do not 90
away. they need you. We love you!"
Her hands had now rested in his
own. He looked into her eyes, fear.
somely, and then with a rare thrill.
She swayed towards him, and he knew
that his fond dream had come true.

face. 1t reaches about to the tip OF
the nose, leaving the mouth and low
er part of the face uncovered This
saves the trouble of taking 1t off or
lifting it when It is necessary to take
drink of water or at lunch time.
Besides, the veil lasts much longer, is
more comfortable and in good many
instances more becoming when worn
in this way.
