That Is, in the Latest Designs Il
Agrees With the Millinery Ac-
companylng Il.

II the very decorative possibilities
of the parasol have been overlooked
of late, the warm weather has made
the fact clear that a parasol adds the
last note of distinction to dress. Ev-
cry one interested in dress comments
upon the varied designs of this sum-
mer's parasols and upon the amusing
way in which each one agrees with
the shape of the hat that is worn.
When feathers tower above the
crown of the chapeau the parasol
carried has an obliging cupola crown,
and If the millinery is of spreading
character then when the parasol Is
opened it Is seen that 1t is Japanese

chance to coincide with the trimming
Of the hat or with the flowers that
decorate the gown.
OF freak handles there are always a
certain number, and one of the quaint

spring and the doors of the cuckoo
clock fly open and the cuckoo appears
on the threshold. He is silent bird,
for his trick begins and ends with
the little performance already de-
scribed.

English throne. Arthur had been
married to Catherine Of Aragon. who
brought him a dowry Of 100000
crowns. Sooner than to return this
large dowry. the misery old king mar
ried Catherine to Henry. She was
some years older than her boy hus-

In 1909 Henry VIII. became king. He

popular man in his kingdom. Hand

the exact opposite of his miser father
England was weak from long civil
wars and bad rule. She had sunk al
most to the level Of third rate power
Henry quickly changed all this.
With splendid craftsmanship he stead
lily lifted his country to a foremost
rank among Europe's nations. He
won victories against French and Scot
fish foes. Education and commerce
throve. The land waxed rich and hap

Men heartily dislike girls who nag

~ know they are," answered Alcibia'
des. THAT is why did 1t. It keeps
them from saying worse things about
! mn for a while"
The anecdote is typical of Alc1b'
iades' life story. He was born $50 B. c.,
of ancient and noble family. had good
looks, wealth and genius. He might
have risen to almost any height. But
there was about him "Queer streak"
demon of perversity that was ever
leading him to throw away his golden
chances and to commit needless
crimes and follies.
Greece in those days was in is
glory. It was split up into several
dependent and semi-independent
states. of which Athens and Sparta
were the chief. Athens was noted
for its art, education and culture;
Sparta for its courage and stern sim.
plicity., The two were deadly rivals.
Persia, the great nation to the east
ward, was ever seeking to destroy
both. Athens and Sparta were dem
ocracies in the strongest sense of the
word, the voice of the people always
ruling the state. (This did not pre-
vent shrewd politicians ruling the peo-
pie any more than it does nawadays.}
Alctbiades started life as pupil Of
the wise old philosopher Socrates. The
two were dear friends, each having
saved tho others life in battle. Yet
Socrates could not turn his pupil from
vice and gayety, nor induce him to
follow wisdom rather than pleasure

The Choosing Of a Wife,

When it shall please God to bring
thee to mans estate, use great provi-
dence and circumspection in choosing
thy wife. For from thence will spring
all thy future good or evil. And 1t is
an action of life like unto a stratagem
of war, wherein man can err but
once. II thy estate be good. match
near home and at LEISURE: If weak,
far of and quickly. Inquire diligently
Of her disposition and how her parents
have been inclined In their youth.
Let her not be poor, how generous So
ever. For man can buy nothing IN
the market with gentility. Nor chooze
a base and uncomely creature alto
gether for wealth; for it will cause
contempt in others and loathing in
thee. Neither make choice of a dwarf
or a fool; for. by the one thou shalt
beget q race of pigmies; the other
will be thy continual disgrace, and it
will yirke thee to hear her talk. For
thou shalt find 1t, to thy great grief,
that there is nothing more fulsome
than a she-fool.-Lord Burlefgh.

Wide FIounce Of Lace.

A graceful trimming is the wide
hounce of lace applied obliquely to the
skirt: that is, slanting from one hip to
the opposite knee in direction. The
oblique arrangement gives graceful
long lines and If the lace is soft and
the flounce is scant in gathering. the
width Of the figure is appreciably in
creased. A charming frock of tan-shot
taffeta had a cream lace founce ar
ranged in this way, Within the v OF
the surplice bodice was a vest of the
same creamy lace. There was no 9TH
er trimming on the model.
