1t is claimed that washed potatoes

THE BEAUTIFUL HOUSE OF TO-DAY

A pilgrim was passing the .wide-open
door
OF the house by the side of the way,
AS an angel stood waiting and calling
to him
From the beautiful house of Today.
"Oh, enter we here; twas built just
for you;
Come dwell in this beautiful place,
For other shall never be open to you
From today to the end of the race"
But the pilgrims saw net it's glory or
worth.
Il see not the beauty" you say.
To me- tbs only bare, lonely place;
'Tis only the house of Today.
While onward before in my journey
A house that is wondrously fair:
'Tis the house of Tomorrow that soon
shall see,
That is free from the burdens OF
care.
And the angel said sadly, Farewell
farewell"
AS the pilgrim pressed forth on his
way
To the house of Tomorrow he hat
seen just ahead,
And 10, twas the house of Today.
Its glory and splendor had seemed t.
depart;
Not the house of Tomorrow, h,
cried,
And the angel still stood by the wide
open door
And pleadingly pressed to his side.
How often we all. in the journey G

Impatiently press on our way,
Nor see in our haste that beautifr
place,
The beautiful house of Today.
But the house of Tomorrow we col
stantly seek,
And turn from the angel away,
Who lovingly pleadingly, calls us

In the beautiful house of Today.

WHAT TO CHOOSE
FOR THE NEW GOWN
Attractive New Fabrics For
Spring and Summer.

One OF the most fascinating suits
has the true Russian blouse and a tri-
pie overskirt, which seems as though
the blouse had been repeated several
times. When of new and curious
cretonne, which is strewn with tiny
oriental flowers and wee monkeys, ii
is very attractive. Every year the
dressmakers endeavor in vain to make
cretonne a popular material, but the
charming new designs for this season
make its prospects more hopeful.
The dressmakers and tailors are very
enthusiastic about the new weaves of
PONCE, and washable corduroy will be
much used for dresses and suits. This
corduroy is a wonderfully woven cot
ton fabric, with a rich velvety finish.
and is quite light in weight.
For afternoon suits there is a new
silk matelasse fabric that is light
weight. yet sufficiently firm to look
quite regal.
For demi- tailored dresses ratine
striped wolfe is effective, and for aft
ernoon and evening gowns crepe de
chine and brocade silks are the favor
ties OF course there are fine silk and
cotton brocades and cotton voiles OF
unusual beauty.
While the dress silhouette is quite
simple. styles are fanciful. To begin
with, many of the fine grapes and
voiles are embroidered or bordereC
with English cutwork or darnine
stitches in a zigzag design. Appliquef
of embroidery in brilliant colors arr
popular.
While charmeuse will be worn. i
will give precedence to crepe de chine
for demi-tailored afternoon and even
ing gowns.

DETECT CHECK RAISING
BY ULTRA VIOLET RAYS
New Method Shows UP Faintest Signs
of Erasures.

Changes in documents or checks
made after the use of a chemical ink
eraser may be detected by photogra
ply with the aid OF ultra violet rays,
according to DR.. Robert W. Wood OF
Johns Hopkins university, who an
nounced his discovery recently.
DR.. Wood exhibited a check raised
to $4,000. The words originally were
twenty -four dollars" The change
was made by an expert in a manner
that made 1t impossible to discover the
change even with a high power mag
nifytng glass
The slip OF paper was placed under
the ultra violet rays for ten minute
exposure. The result was that a
heavy smudge appeared after the
words ''twenty-four." clearly showing
that there had been an erasure and
something else written in.
