NOT YET THE SINLESS WORLD

Senior Fernando Cadalso, SPANS in

Gently in New York that he thought
the time had not yet come for the
abolition of capital punishment.
THE world is not yet civilized
enough for this advance he contin-

a good deal in the state of the col
ored people in the watermelon story.
ST heard this story from one Of
your clever southern editors. He said
that man was q good deal troubled
by thieves in his watermelon patch
and so he called up his old gardener
and began:
Uncle Eli, I'm trying an expert
ment with Doc Sawyer in the south
watermelon patch. The melons there
are a poison variety, and if any Of
your colored friends touch them
they'll be killed. sure. You'd better

Draped Lace Tunies.

Although perhaps the lace tunic has
q tendency to age its wearer it has
compromising merits which recon-
mend it to women of middle age and
even younger women who have a ten
dency to stoutness. For the closefit-
ting pointed tunic of black lace cut
with the upper part in the form of a
coat tends to make the figure look
slim in manner that many, alas! find
eminentIy desirable as years come fast
upon them.
The favorite lace employed is Chan
lilly, and when one knows how to
drape artistically nothing can be more
elegant. On the contrary. nothing can
be dowdier than q drapery which
seeks to be artistic-and fails lamen-
tably in the attempt

addition to any wardrobe, be it limited
or Dot. They are made of somewhat
heavy silk Silk and cotton so-called
tub silk. is almost as durable as heavy
alI-silk material and is more durable
for petticoats, at least, than cheap
all silk The petticoats are made in
striped pattern with scant bias
f1ounces at the bottom. They can be
worn with any light street costumes
One of violet and white in narrow
stripes could be worn with tan, green
or violet outside skirts; one OF tan
and white would find many uses, and
more decided colors would be useful to
wear with few frocks.

CITY OF HAMBURG
One of the Three Free Burgs of
Germany.
Its People Spend Their Leisure Hours
on Water Front-st. Paula. the
Sailors Paradise, One of the
Towns Noted Resorts.

Hamburg.-It was nine o'clock and
still daylight in Hamburg. We sat in
pavilion cafe overlooking the Bin
nen-Alster The lake was full OF
boats; sail boats, roWboats and ca
noes. Every now and then a little
steamboat whizzed In from the Aus
sen Alster, its tunnels being lowered
and raised with a snap as it passed
under the low bridge. A few bicycle
launches were still scooting over the
water, ridiculous things with the rider
high in the air, >pedaling wheels that
seemed to run right over the water.
The swans were still hanging around
the edge OF the water trying to coax
the loiterers to throw them a crumb
or two. One large one was away out
In the middle of the lake vigorously
following a launch that had the sign
''Ldebnitz Cakes" tackled on its side.
We wondered if the swan could read.
/ do not believe Americans love
waterfronts as much as Europeans
do, for we only use our river banks
for mills and dumps. while in Europe
they make theirs the most beautiful
part OF their cities, and there they
spend their leisure hours and center
all their love.
At ten o'clock it was not yet dark,
SO we took trip to St PAUL., the
sailors resort in Hamburg. Several
big liners had locked that day and
sailors simply flooded and owned the
place. Everything was going at q
great pace, especially the sailors pay.
There were moving picture shows,
merry go-rounds, side shows and cafes
all perfect blaze of light. Many
fakirs were stationed along the side
walk shouting in their loudest and
most convincing German about the
excellence of their wares.
