For Evening Wear.


Evening dress is quite lovely this
year, and the tunic as much to the
fore as ever, though rather shorter
than that Of last winter. The bead
embroidery is all the rage, and it is
almost crowded upon the ninon that
composes these tunics, They are OF
the most vivid colors, and the variety
of designs is surprising. There ap-
pears to be no end to the inventive.
ness Of the clever brains employed in
this interesting If arduous work. The
great difficulty must be to differen.
tiate the patterns from each other.
One Of the Ioveliest has two long.
stemmed lilies rising from the hem in
front, and border of similar but
smaller lilies finishes the tunic. The
color is cerise, with crystal beads,
and curiously effective touch is the
very narrow, fiat piping, in the very
palest greenish blue, which finishes
the tunic around the shoulders and
borders the sleeves. Lovely effects
are made by laying these beautiful
cofUrs over each other.

USEFUL HOOK-AND-EYE BOX
Simple ContrIvance VIII Save Time
and Frequently Much Wear and
Tear on the Nerves.

Have you ever hunted in vain for
the special size of hook and eye you
needed? If not you are an abnormally
neat woman, or one given to buttons
Or pins.
During that mad hunt through a
badly mixed box of sewing utensils
you doubtless vowed to have a sep
arate hook-and-eye box forthwith.
Then you promptly forgot.
The next time Immediately hunt a
number Of card envelopes, and on the
dap Of each one sew a hook and eye
to show the size and color within.
Put these envelopes neatly in a small
box and your miserable fishing days
are over. There should be separate
holders for cards of hooks and eyes,
detached ones that have not been
used and for those that have been
ripped from dress, as is the habit
of some economical women.
Small boxes with the hook sewed or
pasted to the lid may take the place
of an envelope, but take up more room
and are less easily handled.

Enrlehlna the Language.

The growth and change which are
inseparable from all living language
cannot fail to interest the student. and
a special interest attaches to the in-
corporation of the names of well.
known men. Thus Wellington has
come to mean a sort Of boot; Broug-
ham, carriage. and Gladstone, appro-
pirate enough, a travellers bag, as
that great man advocated the bag and
baggage policy, which seems likely at
length to be adopted.
Other names have been turned into
verbs as well as nouns. For instance.
the murderer Burke's name is per-
petuated in the words to burne burk-
ed, burking and burkism. while in
quite recent times Captain Boycott's
experiences resulted in the language
being enriched by the phrases to
boycott, boycotter. boyeotting. etc.
The most notable case was prob
ably that Of the great and good man.
Rev. 7. Bowlder, D. D., who by pub.
fishing family edition of Shake
speare in 1881, added the words
'bowldlerize" and "bowlderism" to our
language. Exchange.

MUCH IN PLEASANT MANNER
Man Uniformly Courteous, Has an Adj
vantage Over Rival With
Morose Bearing.

A pleasing manner is an important
essential to success in any business. A
gentle, courteous manner will win rec
ognition anywhere. So much depends
upon first Impressions, and these are
favorable or unfavorable according to
whether a man is polite and courteous
or brusque and nervous in bear
ing.
We cannot always Judge man by.
what he says or does, but the way in
which he says or does a certain
thing will prove the best index to his
character.
A pleasant, courteous bearing viii
help man to success in business,
where boorish, impatient manner
will turn away customers. The
brusque man may be as well meaning
as his more affable rival, but people
have not the time nor inclination to
find out what is beneath the rude ex-
terror; they prefer to patronize the
man who makes it plain that 1t is q
pleasure to serve; that the world is a
mighty pleasant place, and that he is
glad to be alive.
II you are not the possessor Of a
pleasant manner, start in to acquire it.
You will find it an immense help in
making a success Of anything you IN
dertake.

death, and played the Lament" It
was announced in every London pa

was spontaneous on the part of an
old servant of the family and the

upon him a handsome sum of money.

WHY FLOWERS AT WEDDINGS
Pretty Custom That Has Been Handed
Down Through Centuries Has a
Real Significance.

Flowers, of course, always have
been used at all festal occasions, and
SO, consequently, at the weddings of
practically every nation. They are the
symbol Of gayety, and hence their pro
fusion at that most joyous of times
a wedding.
But some of the flowers have more
than a general significance. For ex-
ample, there was long a custom for
each guest to dip sprig of rosemary
into his cup Of wine before drinking
the couples health. The bride (if she
were not a widow and the bride
groom once adorned themselves with
garlands of wheat This was a symbol
of plentifulness and increase and at
the present time the bridal wreath of
orange blossoms possesses the same
meaning
In "ye olden times" there were gar
lands, garlands everywhere at a we'd
ding ceremony. Even the rejected
suitor sometimes wore garland of
gray willow.
Besides the flowers, both the bride
and bridegroom wore true love knot,
an ornament introduced into England
by the Danes in the ninth century and
called the "trulofa," the troth. The
bride of that time was supposed al
ways to wear three ornaments ring
for a pledge, brooch for innocence,
and q garland as crown of victory
for temptations resisted.

,1e financial proposals Of the home
rule bill. He made the discovery
that the speaker would have to act
AGAINST a vote for women clause in
the franchise reform bill while hunt
ing up evidence AGAINST the bill He
felt the measure was unfair to the
city of London in that it provided
that voters must cast their ballots in
the constituency in which they reside.
Therefore he decided to oppose it.,
and began his search for evidence.
He found also that as few of the
property owners or business men in
the city reside within the square
mile the members would, had the
bill been passed, simply represent the
porters and charwomen of the office
buildings and banks.
Sir Frederick is a retired stockbro-
ker. Until recent months he was
chiefly known for his CHEEKY speech
es on all manner of subjects, but
never on any very important ques-
ton. In the early days of session
of the house of commons Fridays are
given up to private members business.
By draw it is decided what member
shall have Friday to himself and on
that day he introduces some pet mea-
sure of himself or his party. The
measure must be passed before )
o'clock or disappear. These were field
days for Sir Frederick. No matter
what the subject, he could talk for
hours on it, talk it out in fact so
that these was no possible chance of
concluding the debate by the stipul-
ated time. He was seldom known to
favor any measure introduced on a
Friday by a private member.
Another favorite pastime Of his was
after attacking the government fierce
ly, to cross the house and take a seat
on the front bench reserved for cab
met ministers. Although these ben
ches are reserved for ministers mere
ly through courtesy, private members
never sit there unless invited. Sir
however, found that by
some old act of parliament members
for the city of London have the priv
ilege, and on certain occasions he
take pleasure in exercising it.
Las Vegas optic., 1913-03-01

Alexandria, Egypt, which has attain
ed notoriety recently on account of
revelations of municipal graft, has
submitted to the government a coat
of arms which has been subjected to
much criticism by patriotic Egyp-
tians. The most prominent figure in
the design is scantily clad Roman
maiden floating on a raft toward the
moon. The meaning Of the design
has not been explained by the city
fathers, and the people are left won
dering why a Roman and not an Egyp-
tian maiden should have been chosen
for the chief figure.
Lord Kitchener has a reputation for
tackling any problem presented to
him, but he has refused to play Solo
mon in the present dispute, and has
referred the matter to the college of
heralds in London These experts
may be able to shed some light upon
the reason for making the Roman
maiden symbolical Of the city which
is now Egypt's commercial center and
which was once the intellectual hub
