SWEET ALICE.
BY DIR. FRANK CRANE.
Copyright, 1918, BY Frank Crane.)

20 don't you remember Sweet Alice. Ben Bolt.
Sweet Alice, so good and so trueT'
There is not much being said about
her nowadays. Naturally she never gets
into the newspapers; she is not that
kind. And the novels of the day seem
to pass her by for more thrilling types,
although once she was quite the vogue.
But for all that she is still doing busi-
ness at the old stand.
l refer to the simple. loyal, lovable girl
who loves just one boy. the one who
is to be her husband, the one into whose
career all her life is to be gladly poured.
l would not dare these days to say she
is the highest kind of woman She
couldn't be suffragette nor a leader of
any movement"
She is just girl. When she grows up
she is just woman. She is not famous
nor i'll anywise conspicuous.
But she is the kind men go crazy over;
the kind to live for and die for.
And while the great and grand woman
leaders of our time are being garlanded
and feted l may be allowed perhaps to
hand this one little flower of apprecia
ton to Sweet Alice.
Yes, / know it is sentimentaI; it is
gush. But the heart that won't gush
once in while is pretty dry. 1 don't
covet il.
The loyal devotion of one man to one
woman is still the thing that today eX-
cites the most universal admiration.
There are all sorts of loves: but the
love that is stuck to is the best.
Nothing in McKinley's career so pop
ularized him as his tender and constant
attention to his invalid wife.
Before Pickett led his braves to that
fatal charge at Gettysburg he wrote to
his sweetheart, and in telling her how
he loved her alone he found something
that nerved him to courage.
1t may not be much to inspire and
ennoble man, to make him unafraid TO
tell and to live the truth, to keep him
clean, without fear and without re-
proach," but that is what the Sweet
Alice girl can do.
l like to think of the army of lovers
in the world. Just week or SO ago the
college towns were buzzing full, but no
incidents of commencement time meant
more than those walks where they went
a-twozing. hand in hand in the summer
night, and talked Of how passing Won
derful it was that they should have
found each other and that love came II
there's any more important business than
making love don't know what 1t Is.
l like to think of the innumerabie little
households where the young HUSBAND
gloats over Sweet Alice and her babies
and still tells her fond and foolish moth
ings that warm her heart.
I like to think of the pairs that have
held Loyalty together through sun and
storm, Of the two that are grandpar-
ents now. but still find no hours SO !ull
of content as those they spend together
and apart from the world.
This love is the best; the love that is
weathered and beaten; that has been
assailed by every outward enemy ana
all inward weaknesses, but still holds
and CLOVIS; the love that death itself can
not slay. the love that lives on yonder
in the unknown. as sure and eternal as
the God who gave it, who wrought It.,
this miracle of miracles.

not care for cretonne hangings you can
easily paper the walls of the closet with
the same kind of wall paper used on the
hat boxes.
The closet door may also be made use
full A long mirror. five feet long and
twelve inches wide may be screwed onto

of cretonne on each side of the mirror in

side the closet door. may be pulled up
to the bureau at dressing time, and you
can Sit there and dress with everything
in easy reach. This built-in boudoir
would only be possible in room lighted
by electricity. Ii would then be quite
simple to have a connection made in the
closet.

AMERICAN FASHIONS.
BY CORA MOORE.

Every week brings out fresh evil
dences of the charm that lies in the
combination of summer cottons with
embroideries. silks and the amazing
variety of materials with which the
dressmakers have to work this sea-
son. Surely there is no fault to be
found with the present trend Of fash
ions. Each new model is distinctive;
the commonplace does not even have
to be considered. We have to look
back over the past ten years to &C
tually realize how different" this year
is from any other in matters of dress.
Whatever the fall may bring forth
there is little, If any, chance of radical
change before them The straight out
line with skirts narrowing at the feet

For Abandoned Children.
From the Survey.


Hungary maintains seventeen institu-
tons for INDECENT, abandoned, delinquent
and abused children. Ii is the custom TO
receive every child applicant. to give him
a bath and clean clothes and then to in
vestigate his condition. If the investiea-
ton warrants the states interference the
child is admitted. Seventeen thousand
children were thus received in 1908. Most
Of them are placed out in the country or
smaller cities with farmers or artisans OF
good character and in moderate circum-
stances Five reformatories have been es-
tablished for delinquent or absolutely un-
ruly children. They have room for
thousand inmates, who live together In
family groups of twenty-five. learning
trade under the supervision of the head
of the household Corporal punishment is
still administered. Up to 1905 2.331 in
mates had been released on parole. $50
per cent had worked steadily and had
kept straight, "a per cent had committed
crimes and 5 per cent had disappeared

Gowns With Capes.

Because of the fancy for something
newer than a coat, the dressmakers in
vented frocks of thin serge or silk man
ties falling down the neck and shoulders
half way to the knees. One of these is
of dark corded silk, with a regulation
short skirt and a pleated blouse. which
has deep shoulder yoke and a rolling
collar of white crepe de chine. The
mantle does nA extend beyond the Shout
der line. 1t hangs from the back, is high
at the neck and is held In place by
having its edges ornately stitched
straight down the shoulder seams from
neck half way TO elbow. 1t gives the
effect Of an Austrian army cape and was
probably adapted from the war apparel
of the soldiers of the Balkan states
Naturally, this is novelty that will
appeal only to the few, for a woman
must be able to have many gowns to her
name to be able to indulge in one that
has its mantle securely sewn to it; but
she can follow out the idea if it pleases
her by making one of these half capes
and attaching it to the neck, the arm
hole and the sleeves sls far down as the
elbow. She can wear it on cool days and
disregard 1t on warm ones.
y
with a skirt and not a one-piece frock.
1t has long, straight fronts from neck to
we'll below waist line. Is buttoned down
the middle, is belted with patent leather
and has mantle back that begins at the
shoulders and falls half way to the knees.
This one is very scant in its fullnesS
and is exceedingly graceful. 1t is ac-
tually copied from the coat and cape OF
the Servian soldiers.
There are double and triple capes made
of broadcloth and that fabric called
channels cloth, which is very difficult to
find and very lovely. Each cape is cut
to rounded a sharp point in the
back and all of them are graded well
up toward the front. There Is high
rolling collar often lined with brilliant
tone OF taffeta.
This shape Is also carried out In white
serge and blanket cloth with a scarlet
collar or a green one. There are no but
tons on IL, but the more serviceable ones
have heavy army. frogs Of white silk
cord.
