WITH soft lace drapery which forms
w their bodices, gowns for evening
or for afternoon functions are CON-
pleted by draped skirts meeting the
bodice with a girdle or sash. Often
the top of the skirt extends itself into
the waist line drapery, and often a
separate girdle in contrasting color
is employed.
But whatever the finish at the waist
line, for these gowns for high occa-
sions, the splendid corsage rose is
rarely left out. This is rose made
of ribbon or velvet, mounted with or
without millinery foliage and having
a ribbon-wrapped stem.
Such a rose is posed at the front of
the gown, usually a little toward the

part in the composition of the pic
ture.
The roses of satin or velvet are
made in all the fashionable new col
ors. Certain yellow and strong light
green shades, also deep orange and
black, have been favorites. These
corsage roses-in passing-will trans
form plain skirt and dressy blouse
into quite formal dress. They are
large and are made of ribbon about
three inches wide, or wider. The rib
bon is cut into lengths to form the
petals, each length being twice that
of required petal plus an inch extra
for plating in at the base of the pet
al and winding in at the stem.
A wire provides the stem. A little
ball of cotton is wound about one end,
the size of a thimble, and over this
bit of ribbon is placed and fastened
to the stem by winding it with a
thread or tie-wire. About this center
a short length of ribbon folded
lengthwise) is wrapped to initiate the
small petals, still unopened, at the
heart of the rose.
After the center has been made in
this way, the petals are made. Each

Never buy sheep dog from a

of them are entirely worthless for
work among sheep.

short length is doubled and plated in
at the raw edges. The plaits are
sewed down. After the petals-say
ten or eleven in all-have been made,
they are fastened about the center Of
the rose already formed, tied to the
stem with thread or tie-wire. Finally
the corners are curled back on some
of the petals and blind-stitched down.
Shape the petals, cupping them with
the fingers. Wind the stem with mar
row green ribbon, winding in a spray
or two of millinery rose foliage.
These roses made of velvet ribbon
about two inches wide in deep gold
color are mounted with velvet foliage.
Besides satin and velvet ribbon the
heavier gauze ribbons are used, and
the gold and silver tissue. Roses of
this sort are expensive bits of luxury
when bought ready made-from about
two to five dollars each. The value is
placed upon the time consumed in
making them, and the workmanship,
far more than in the material used.
For less dress-up times, the little
rosegay of rosebuds made of several
different colors of narrow satin ribbon,
is still great favorite. These small
roses are made of a length Of satin
ribbon folded lengthwise along the
center) or of separate petals made of
narrow ribbon. They are mounted on
little stems of small green covered
wire. Sprays Of fine millinery foliage
of maidenhair fern usually are used
with them by way of variety. Narrow
velvet ribbon in green or purple winds
the stems together, and finish the
nosegay with a little bow. These
small nosegays are scented, and form
the daintiest Of accessories worn on
the coat or furs for the street. Small
bits OF ribbon or silk will make them.
They are always appreciated, bound
to please those who possess a sense
of the value of such finishing touches
to the toilet. 1t would be difficult to
think up better Christmas gift for

us not hesitate to try all the late COM
nonsense methods. We must not
drift from year to year in the same

the active agents of system that

1t is true that warm water is just
as wet as cool water, but it is not SO
palatable and the hogs will thrive
better If they have cool drink at

Hogs exposed to the hot sunshine
day in and day out during the sum-
mer will lose much of the gains they
make even though the clover fields

The main and only point in raising
hogs is to produce flesh that will

tricacies in construction of the most
simple looking of French gowns. 1t
is quite likely that this one is made in
two pieces, with the skirt and chiffon
bodice attached to short under
waist. The skirt overlaps at the front.
The tunic is apparently fastened at
the left side and attached to the bod
ice. The girdle is boned and is of soft
satin, lined in irregular pleats. Cir
dies are, almost without exception,
made in colors contrasting with that
used in the body of the gown. Some
times girdle is in several colors,
those in plaid of bright tones being
favored for plain cloth gowns. An
other development of the always pres
ent girdle shows silk in three colors
laid in pleats, making three-toned
girdle. Certain it is that, in the man
agement of the waist line, our present
modes are the most artistic, the most
easy and graceful of any that lie with
in the memory of the women of our
country.
The study of gown of as great ar
tistic value as this one should involve
that of the dressing of the feet and
the arrangement of the couture, be-
cause both these matters should enter
into the consideration of dressy cos
tune at any time. Satin slippers in
| black with rhinestone buckles, and
| silk hosiery of the color of the gown
take care of the clothing of the feet
appropriately.
The couture is one of those designs
classified as the 'casque" sty6e, in
which all the hair is waved. 1t is ar
ranged over the head like a turban
There is no chignon at the back. The
ends of the hair are turned under the
waves and spread about in such way
as to dispense with coil.
In cutting a gown of this character
wide goods are more easily managed
than narrow. Skirts, overlapping at
the front, while narrow, give room for
easy walking because the front seam
is not Joined down to the bottom. The
under petticoat must be soft; the most
clinging of fabrics, as chiffon or crepe
de chine, or lace. An inserted fiounce
will take the place of a petticoat
Anything heavy enough to interfere
with the falling of the skirt in close
and clinging lines would destroy al
important item in the beauty of the
design. 1t is the hang and not fit O.
garments which is of paramount i'm
portance now. The figure, without dis
tortion' of any sort, without restraint
but in the lovely, natural silhouette
is. glorifled in present day styles
which really amount to cleverly ar
ranged drapery. Garments must no
shape the figure today; they must b,
shaped by it, or appear to be, anyway
} Hence so many gowns seem to be de
signed for the corsetless figure.

Berlin, May 17.-Smugglers of sac

one still in Austria, are evAr invent

| ties, of which the public learns only

A short time ago the inhabitants OF
a Bavarian village on the Swiss from

neral procession, coffin. pail bearers,
mourners and undertaken. all in order,
pass through the village with police
| men and inspectors acting apparently
as honorary escort. A halt was
made at the police station. the coffin
vas opened, and from It was taken
about hundred pounds of sacchar-
inc which the smugglers had attempt
ed to introduce in this way.
At one of the railroad stations in
Berlin the other day one of the roomy
furniture vans which i'm Europe are
filed with household goods. loaded on
q fat car and shipped to any desired
city. was accidentally opened. Rail-
road employees were surprised to find
it loaded with broken furniture Of no
value. AS the car came from Switzer-
land, the police were called in, and
thorough examination for illegal arti-
cles made but without effect. Finally
one of the policemen noticed the un-
usual thickness of the walls of the
van. Investigation showed a space
two inches wide between the side
walls and a commodious secret gar
ret under the roof packed solidly with
sacchartne. The same van had made
the trip between Schaffhausen and
Berlin at least once before, accord
ing to the railroad records. The van
and contents were conhscated, but the
consignee disappeared
Most of the saccharine smuggled
into Germany Is destined for Austria,
the smugglers finding 1t much easier
to hoodwink the Austrian officials
with shipments from Germany than
elsewhere. Also the Austrian duty is
higher
A classic trick, now exposed and no
longer practiced, was to send candles
to be blessed to the pilgrimage mon
astery at Einsiedeln, in Switzerland,
after which they were exported to
Austria. Here they went. not to the
pious, but to a refinery, to be melted
up and the saccharine in them re-
moved Both the monastery and GUS
toms were for months taken in by this
device.

developed out of the esthetic tempera-
ment of the teacher Of fancy dances
or of the round dance, but they have
come out of the mere aninalism Of the
dancer Can the church afford to
countenance dances that have such
an origin?
TT should be enough for us who
have in charge the social life Of the
church and the welfare of our young
people to forbid that which a natural
feeling of decency frowns down upon.

years hence, will have to spend at
least a twenty dollar bill for his wine,
in addition to the cost of a suitable

Shubert received s3,255 for a cask of

The values Of wine bring to mind
the famous bottle in the historical
museum of Speyer. This container is
of antique shape and was found in
Roman sarcophagus unearthed in 1857,
to which is attributed an age Of 1900
years. The bottle contains a white
wine covered on top with a resinous

wine bottles as a means of excluding
the air and preserving the liquid. An

A Peculiar Charge.
The zeal of the courts in trying to
prevent the disclosure of military Sc
crets is illustrated anew by a case
that has just been decided at Cassel.
A court there sentenced a draughts-
man, formerly employed in an optical

a cause for the deepest concern to
German theatre managers and actors,
who are always on the lookout for
ways and means to diminish this Sc
rious competition.
The latest development is a petit
ton Of the German Stage Society to
the Reichstag requesting that a spec
ial law be passed for the regulation
of moving picture shows. The So
ciety asks, among other things. that
the moving picture business be put
under the same regulations as the
theatres in regard to construction of
buildings, fire appliances and safe
guards; that continuous performanc es
be prohibited, and that 1t be made
unlawful to serve beer and other re-
freshments at moving picture shows.
The petition gives some striking sta
tistics to prove that the "kinos' have
cut into the theatre attendance. In
Elberfield, for example, the number

from $4,000 to $4,000 between the

1t is understood that the Prussion
government is now preparing a bill
that will meet many of the wishes OF
features of the measure probably will
be to require picture shows to take
out a license. Strict regulations will
control the granting of licenses, none
being given unless the applicant
proves that there is a real need for
show at the place in question.
