I'M \ LITERARY BROTHERHOOD
Men of Great Literary kttainments
Whose Friendship Has Been Made
Matter of History.

It was Rosetti, the great friend, who
described Mr.. Theodore Watts-Dun-
ton. the famous poet, novelist and crit
ic. as "A Hero of Friendship" Feel
ings OF almost brotherly love existed
between Watts-Dunton and Tennyson,
Browning, James Russell Lowell,
George Borrow, Millais, Holman Hunt
and Swinburne, to mention but few
of famous literary brotherhood In
deed, the intimacy which existed be-
tween Swinburne and Watts-Dunton,
which might well be described as one
of the most beautiful friendships in
the history of literature and art, led
to their being referred to as David
and Jonathan"
For many years they were never
separated. They lived together at the
Pines, Putney, took their summer holi-
days in company, and practically spent
every working hour together, discuss
ing literary matters and affairs All
Swinburne's papers were left to Mr..
| Watts-Dunton, and it was hoped that
he would write the famous poets BIZ
ography.
Like many other literary men, Mr..
Watts-Dunton cared little for society,
although occasionally he was lured
forth to play the lion" at big recep.
tions. 1t was on one such occasion
that a guest came up to him and
shook his hands in such an ELUSIVE
manner as to embarrass the novel
list.
IT see" said the stranger, you DOM
know me from Adam"
MY dear SIR" said Mr.. Watts-Dun
ton, Il never knew Adam"
It is said that this was the only
occasion when Mr.. Watts-Dunton per
ipetrated a joke. At the same time
he was one of the kindliest of men
land, unlike other recluses, took thu
llgreatest interest in the affairs of tn
world. Wireless telegraphy appealed
to him very much, and the story o
the rescue of the passengers and GREY
of the Volturno moved him to tears
1T was the grandest thing of m
time" he once exclaimed, the sun
moning of all those ships to the res
cue"
The novelist, by the way, was
great believer in hard work. All hi
life he was accustomed to getting u
at six o'clock or soon after, and q
ing to bed at II at night; and h
, could invariably be seen each afte
! noon during the fine weather takin

Heath by the road he and Swinburn
: so often trod together.

Kept Alive by Electricity.

The attention of surgeons at the
General hospital, Birmingham, Eng

remarkable case OF lad eleven years
of age. He was admitted to the insti-
tuition suffering from a tumor on the

While the surgeons were at work
the patient stopped breathing and arti-

The shaping is managed by basting al
ternating rows of narrow and wide
insertion to a light paper pattern. The
lace is brought to 'V" shape in the
back. The shoulders are fitted with
narrow seams. The insertings are
whipped together.
The lower edge of the yoke is
stitched to beading embroidery about
an inch in width, to which the body
of the gown is set on. The sleeve por-
ton and bottom Of the gown are fin
ished with a wide edging, and the
neck with a narrow one of CORE
spending pattern. Ribbon run through
the beading adjusts this pretty en-
pire pattern to the figure.
In nightgowns and in other lingerie
of the best designs the makers steer
clear of much elaboration. Ribbons
form a highly important decorative
feature, and special designs In bows
and rosettes are made to be adjusted
when required.

THE last word in thin summer tot
August, comes in the form of this
combination of transparent materials
and embroidered net or heavy linen
with lace. Every detail of this cos
tune may be carefully considered,
from the transparent wide-brimmed
hat of shirred maline, through the
elaborate neckpiece of embroidered
net, the wide velvet girdle, the very
full tunic and the close-hanging under
skirt, bordered with embroidered net,
not emitting the pumps of dull kid
with their snowy buckles. These fea-
lures embody the last evolution of the
summers modes, and indicate what
we may expect in fashions for the
coming fall.
The costume shows a fine eye for
selection rather than desire to be
original. There are several new
touches in the minor details, such as
the new form of side comb in the
hair, the very broad girdle of velvet
ribbon, and its adjustments about the
hips in the oriental fashion. The long
sleeves Of wolfe indicate the liking for
long sleeves in thin fabrics which are
to be seen repeatedly in gowns OF
heavier materials.
This gown is made of sheer, fine
wolfe embroidered in disks on the
lower half of the sleeves and about the
bottom of the tunic. The bodice
! which is bloused only little, is o

SYNOPSIS.

Eleanora de Toscana was singing In
Paris, which, perhaps accounted for Ed
ward Courtlandts appearance there. Null
timillionaire, he wandered about where
fancy dictated. He might be In Paris one
day and KamchatlSa the next. Following
the opera he goes to a cafe and Is &C
costed by a pretty young woman; she
gives him the address of Flora Desimone,
vocal rival Of Toscana, and Flora gives
him the address Of Eleanora, whom he Is
determined to see Courtlandt enters
Eleanora's apartments. She orders him
out and shoots at him. The next day
Paris is shocked by the mysterious dis
appearance of the prima donna. Realizing
that he may be suspected of the abduc-
tion of Eleanora Courtlandt arranges Tor
an alFbi. Tleanora reappears and accuses
Courtandt of having abducted her. Ills
abb is satisfactory to the police and the
charge Is dismissed.

Vivid Shades for Girls.

Bright colors in linen. crepe and cot
tons are much worn by children be-
yond the baby age of white. These
are usually worn with black belts or
girdles, and are relieved by collars
or guimpes of fine white embroidery.
The linens are too heavy for gath
ers, but in sheer fabrics shirTings,
plaitings and gathered rufies are
usual.
Such colors as terra Gotta, grass
green and vivid yellows are worn by
young girls Of all ages.

the wolfe also. The underpetticoat Of
fine mousseline or organdie is finished
at the bottom with a wide border of
embroidered net. This same net
makes the neckpiece, which consists
Of fchu and flaring collar in one.
Any pattern in lace of bold design
may be substituted for the embroid-
cred net with equally good effect.
Handmade laces of linen braid are
especially appropriate if the costume
is intended for summer wear only.
This gown made up as pictured here,
might easily be serviceable at other
seasons of the year, as wolfe and en-
broidered net are fabrics used all the
year round.
1t is worth noticing that the tunio
is quite full, but the fullness is not
increased by the addition of a ruffle at
the bottom. This rufle is Of exactly
the same width as the body of the
tunic above it, It is finished with
narrow plating of fine lace at the
bottom and similar plating joins it
to the tunic skirt

is edged with a ruffle of chiffon and
completes an exquisite and refined in
depreciation of this summers modes.
There is no trace of any Of the
freakish elements in the punching and
draping of materials about the figure.
All the lines are uninterrupted and
therefore graceful.

This is the first time in the history
OF the state that the railroads have
