Think of whatsoever things are
lovely. The Christian does nor ply
the vast loom OF songless labor and
unimag inative hope In world
trembling with the immanence of
sorrow the disciple of Christ is nobiy
sustained by the transcendence of his
Joy. Victory over trouble Is char
aeteristic of the Christian. But for
some reason there is an impression
abroad that Christianity makes very
little of the lovely. the winsome, the
beautiful There could be no deeper
mistake. 1t is true that the Master
insists upon a profounder beauty than
that commonly set forth of aesthe-
tioism. To the Greek beauty of form
and thought he adds beauty Of soul
This is life's last and final beauty Is
not a beautiful soul more capable of
approaching the physical world than
an immoral, unspiritual, ugly soul?
In the nature of things 1t must be so.

Costumes for Travelling

There is art in the selection of
suitable costumes for travelling, be
the trip long or short. by motor, train
or ship. Have you ever noticed the
difference in the appearance of wo-
men travellers on the same train,
when they get to the end Of the jour
ney. One is dirty, hot, disheveled,
and the other is apparently as cool
and clean as when she started. This
effect is largely governed by the
preparations made before the jour
ney begins.
In travelling the less one has in
the way of luggage the happier one
is. But that little must be absolutely
to the point and should have been es-
pecially designed for the journey.
Economy of space should be sought
for. Elaborate dresses of contrast
ing colOrs, which require separate
foundations and slippers and other
accessories to match are a useless
burden. A simple dinner dress of
crepe de chine and an evening dress
for more formal occasions of some
dainty material take up next to no
room at all and if carefully chosen
may be worn with almost anything
As for travelling suits the elabor-

BATHING T0GS

TT CAP that would make any wom-
~ an look well in the water~is
one Of the new rubber caps
trimmed with flowers. The cap is
the most practical sort imaginable,
for the flowers are of rubber. A col
ored cap of rubber, with a rubber
frin about the face, and a deeper
rubber frill to protect the neck from
the suns burning rays, shows a lit
tie bunch Of beautiful violets at one
side of the head. A cap of deep red
rubber, made in the same fashion
as the violet one, is adorned with a
bunch Of half open roses and the
shape and color of jacqueminOt roses.
The startling bathing suits which
were described a few weeks ago con-
tinue to dazzle the eyes of shoppers.
Black or blue taffetas and satin are
most in demand, however although
the gayety which is not an undesir-
able feature of a beach color scheme
is not wanting even with these sober
tinted suits. Dashing caps, bOnnets,
girdles, hip sashes, stockings, and
shoes are accepted in plain colors. in
Scotch plaids, Roman stripes, Bulga-
rian and ost-impressionist designs.

ENGLISH QUEEN
FAILS IN EFFORT
To GET BARGAIN
Tries to Buy ChippendaIe Chairs
of Duchess of Sutherland But
Finds Her Shrewd Merchant.
special Gable to The American.

special Gable to The American.
LONDON, June 21.-That Queens
and Duchesses are not above taking
delight in a good piece of business
was shown by a recent incident at
Stafford House.
Queen Mary invited herself to take
tea with the Duchess of Sutherland
there, principally with the object Of
looking over the furniture and bric-a-
brac, which are to be sold, as Sir
William Lever has taken a lease of
the historic mansion.
Queen Is Collector.
The Queen is an amateur collector
Of old English furniture and possesses
nice collection of Chlppendale.
While looking around she noticed two
Chippendale chairs, which she consid-
cred would make a handsome addi-
ton to her collection. Her Majesty
asked the Duchess the price. Her
Grace said the reserve was $50 pounds,
(s750,) and that her Majesty was well
come to them at that figure.
"Oh! A hundred is as much as
want to spend" said the Queen.
Il am sorry" said the Duchess. Il
can't 90 below the reserve"
Her Majesty dropped the subject
for a time and looked at other arti-
cles. Just before her departure she
said to the Duchess: Il would like
to have those chairs. Can't you real
ly let me have them at a hundred?"
Refuses Chairs As Gift.
81 am sorry, maam," replied the
Duchess. Il cannot sell below the re-
serve price. If your Majesty would
accept them as a gift"
"Oh, no, l couldn't think of It," said
the Queen. We'll, If you can't sell
for less, I'll send you a check for
$50 pounds"
Thus two chairs were added to the
Queens collection of Chippendale.
The auctioneers, who are now re-
moving all the furniture and other
objects from Stafford House for the
sale, consider that the Queen made
good bargain.

HobbLe Skirts
Discarded at
Paris Races
BY CHARLES HENRY MELTzER.

PARIS, June 21.-Half of Paris
fed the heated town to see what
proved to be an unusual and sensa-
tional struggle for the French Der
by stakes"
Most Americans in Paris joined the
procession, hoping to see a Yankee
horse win. But when the eighteen
horses entered in the great race
passed the finishing post the Amer
leans were nowhere, while outsiders
had outpaced the favorite.
Never had the Chantilly track been
so crowded as it was. The grand
stand was one mass of warm human
ity; 100000 20-centime enthusiasts
braved the sun in the field where
they consoled themselves for losing
the money they had risked on EcOuen
and Nimbus by gasping at the strange
and charming costumes in the privi-
legged Enclosures.
The fashionable dressmakers had
as usual sent their most fetching
"mannikins" to Chantilly to show off
their new costumes.
/ noticed a marked tendency to-
day to discard the hObble skirt. One
third at least of the mondaine man
nikins in the paddock wore sensi-
BILE costumes. One tenth affected
feminine variations on boys Elton
jackets, cut round in front, the most
striking of them reaching well below
the knee and made of lace.
The hats worn were of small or
moderate sizes and either trimmed
with flowers or strange algrettes.
The favorite shades were white, ce-
rise and blue, while many women
sported sunshades of green, blue and
purple.
This is a mans story.

x Canary Fad

PARIS, June 21.-If one is a wom-
an and wants to be in fashion she
must acquire one Of those slender girl
figures which every once in while
go out of style, but never stay out
long. French newspapers which make
feature of expounding styles and
fads of the fashionable rich to-day
dwelt at length upon the fashions seen
yesterday at the Chantilly race meet.
Chantilly and Longchamps are style
barometers. The slim figure was in
its ascendency and among the other
things noted in the great fashionable
parade were Diaphanous waists, small
hats, canes for women, golden shoe
buckles, anklets with watches set
thereon, embroidered skirts and Golf
fures more appropriate for grand
opera than outdoor gatherings. Two
women carried canaries in gold cages.

ations are a snare and a delusion
even if picturesque. A fine, firm,
strong serge or cloth or silk in a well
tailored coat and skirt is ideal 1t
should be made with a waist of the
same fabric which may be attached
by snap buttons. Or it may be worn
with separate blouses. The coat may
be a Russian blouse, a short jaunty
jacket or a cutaway, a lining in some
pretty color not too light, or one
just in tone. A soft durable satin
should be chosen rather than one in
chiffon or other modish but perishable
fabric.
An extra coat is taken for long
trips and for crossing the ocean a
steamer rug is also necessary.
Headgear is an important item.
a hat or stiff straw projecting at
the back is out Of question. A few
choose this sort, thinking they will
wear a soft hat on the steamer But
they forget that on railroad trains
and in most carriages this type of hat
will be a nuisance, forever giving one
a sensation of collision Wings which
extend are a trouble too, and they be-
come unsightly soon as they are for
ever being struck against doors and
windows.

And ParasoIs.


But that is not ALL oh, fair ones
who are reading this with palpitat-
ing bosoms and bullying eyes! Not
by any manner of means. The pic
ture is to be touched up, its effect
heightened by the carrying of the
chic-est sort of sunshade or para
sol, and in bell or pear shapes, too!
Imagine the effect of dainty bit of
femininity cruising past the Gambler
Building. with her slashed skirt bal
looming out in the frolicsome cur
rent and cross-currents, revealing
tantalizing visions of lace-bound
hosiery, the whole topped off by a
quaint. bell-shaped parasol trying
frautically to whisk the fetching pic
ture out of your field of vision.
Well, here's some more about the
new style in stockings. Rare old
laces are being sought by the wealth
lest woman in Paris" goes on the
fashion writer, especially when it
tends itself easily to this decorative
purpose. 1t is only a matter of a
short time before every woman will
be initiating the style, and, of course,
the use of cheap imitation Valen-
ciennes lace will put an end to the
fad among the better classes.
