asked Astra.

he also made arrangements to have

"Mr. Edison is very kind" She
looked at Astra. do you know, I
sometimes envy you"
Astra raised her eyebrows question
ingly.
my dear, do: you are so good and
noble that Mr.. Edison cannot help low
ing you as he loves goodness itself
through you"
Astra sighed: "Then you love Ma
poleon, Rositta?"
Il love him, indeed" she replied
laughingly. "And were I as good as
you are, would take up the glove and
fight for the prize. But my heart
was poisoned long ago. l do not in
spire pure love-" Her voice sounded
somewhat bitter.
Dear sister," said Astra, putting
her arm around Rositta, II cannot be-
lieve that you are not as good as you
appear, for I do not believe 1 could
love you as do If you were not good
and true"
Astra left to preside at the Educa-
tional Society of Independent Women
Of America. 1--WE shall have luncheon
together at two o'clock, and then we
will have ride with Napoleon" she
said as she left.
Roeitta hurriedly went to her own
rooms, taking the letters she had re-
ceived. One was in Count Won Wer-
denstein's handwriting. She locked
her door carefully, then opened the let
tiers one by one, leaving the counts

and, for the first time, turned to look

the light blue, round eyes Of Santos.

A soft, wide ribbon in rose shades is
chosen for this, which is designed for

IF there are girdle or sashless
j dresses designed for the new sea-
son, they seem to be keeping out Of
sight. Everything has sash which
does not define the waist line, but
wanders above and below and around
or diagonally across and terminates
wherever it sees fit, sometimes at the
bust, sometimes under the shoulders,
again half way to the knees, and rea-
sonably often somewhere near the
waist line.
Nearly all the girdles are of the new
and beautiful ribbons. Some Of them
are of silk wrapped about the figure
and extending from below the bust to
the swell of the hips. To sum up the
matter, you may wear sash or q
girdle of any sort of ribbon you choose
and posed to suit yourself.
Four fashionable designs are shown
here. The first is called the 'Dres-
den," and is made of MORE ribbon In
all colors, with border and stripes in
Dresden patterns woven in. It con-
sists of girdle, short, standing loop
and a long falling loop with one end
forming the sash. At the heart Of
this two-looped bow is buckle made
Of narrow velvet wound over founda-
ton of buckram. The velvet is In a
dark shade of the same color as ap-
pears in the body of the ribbon.
This is one of the most popular
Of all the many sashes now in vogue.
It requires about three yards of rib
bon, and is supported by narrow stays
when fitted to the waist.
The girdle without ends pictured
next is called the "Alsatian,'' taking
it's name from the bow Of two loops,
and equal in length, which furnishes
it. 1t is made of soft, mersa line rib
bon. The heart of the bow is held in
place by two shirrings over soft cord.
A yard and quarter will make this
girdle for a waist of average size,
say "a inches. It is an easy matter to
calculate the length required, since it
takes a trifle more than a half yard
to make the two loops. Adding to this
the waist measure with little allow
ance for making and fastening above
or below the waist line, the length re-
quired is ascertained.

CASTING the Net.

SdSIiH0 Tic tNSIs
Six months had passed. The cap
-tured army and navy had been sent
home to Europe and disarmed. The
various monarchs had ragged at the
Count Won Werdenstein for acceding
to the terms of the agreement submit
ted by the United Republics, but the
people were happy.
The United Republics of America
offered large tract of land in the in
terror of Brazil, Venezuela and Co.
lombia for emigration purposes. Drain
age and irrigation had been SO per
fected that those great plateaus were
habitable and supplied the richest az
ricultural districts in the world.
A meeting had been called to for
mulate the rules of peace. Napoleon,
with full sanction and authorization Of
Congress, made short work of the
agreement with the orientals. He ap-
ipeared above the Island Empire and
announced the ultimatum: that he
would blow up every man-of-war un-
less they were turned over to the Unit
ed Republics of America peacefully,
in which case the latter would pay one
third the value of the monsters. The
orientals had been prepared for this
action and agreed to the terms. China,
the young Oriental Republic, followed
Japan'e example.
Christmas was nearing. The war
vessels of the world were harbored
in the ports of the Americans and
turned over to the Navy Department,
with the command that they be used
for commercial purposes.
The disarmament went on all over
the world. When Christmas day
dawned, peace reigned Not Christian
peace. but peace begotten of fear.

Napoleon Edison, on account Of the

His mothers illness had caused hin

day while the Countess Rosiny was
