On "Eindlna QUIZ


An osteopathic practitioner who
turned on the gas In q room in his
summer cottage on Long Island the
other day, and went to Join the in
Vulnerable caravan, left these words
behind him: "1'll soon find out"
Whether he has found out or not,
probably no one will ever find out.
These personal researches into the
unknown remain themselves un.
known.
Has the problem Of life, present or
future, ever been solved by giving
It up altogether? That is something
which the ordinary Intelligence very
much doubts. II common sense helps
us to any conclusion in the matter.
1t is that We learn rather more about
what is in the cup that is offered US
by draining it to the dregs than we
do by putting 1t from our lips.
The eternal mystery is not to be
solved by the aid of morphine, or the
fumes Of gas, or the impact of cold
lead. There is one thing at least in
the philosophy of the Hindus that
we may profoundly respect, and that
ts the doctrine that the suicide has
the long and weary road of life ia
traverse all over again.
We Americans can understand that
idea, because we instinctively admire
the good sport. And Of all bad sports,
the suicide is the worst.
Play the game to the finish-and
then will be the time to find out"
whether one has won or lost in the
game, and whether the trophy is dust
or deathless gold.

BLESSED APOsTOLATE.

A league of Catholic French wo-
men has been formed in France for
the sustainment of Catholic princi-
pies and teachings, 1t has been
formed absolutely without any polit-
ical tendency or distinction of So
cial rank, and it's one aim is an eff
fort to induce all French women to
practice their religion in the face of
the attacks leveled at it and to en-
courage them to be faithful to their
duties as Christians. It is primarily
an association Of prayer, Of devotion
to the Sacred Heart Of Jesus, Of
PREPARATION, and of the propagation Of
the Kingdom of Christ. The men,
bers were exhorted to take Goods
side" in their daily life and to Le
mindful Of His interests-in one
word. to be apostles. The league is
also to be one Of United Catholic &C.
ton, but resting on the supernatural
basis Of prayer.

Hobbies for Health.

Hobbies have ceased to be re-
garded merely as means of putting
in time, and have come to occupy an
important place in medical treat
ment," says q well-known physician.
But hobby that promotes physical
exercise is the finest recreation that
man whose work entails consider.
able mental strain can have.
The kaiser has taken up wood-cut-
ting as the best possible hobby and
exercise for a hard-working monarch,
and his physicians warmly encourage
the pastime. Every morning In the
Sans Souci park at Potsdam the
kaiser may be seen hard at work with
saw and ak. He not only fells
trees, but chops and saws the wood
into convenient sizes for use. At the
expiration of his hours toll the logs
are either given to the workmen in
attendance or sent to a charity.
Tree-felling, of course, was one Of
Mr.. Gladstone's favorite pastimes.

queer, after the lO0SeneSS of the XII
mono blouse we have worn so long
and which gives SO much freedom
that it almost made one wonder at
times If there was an armhole at all.
Waists of different styles are already
showing that this has an influence
upon them, and are appearing with
smaller armholes. A strong tendency
exists towards embellishing seams in
some way. For instance, sleeves are
put in with cording around the
armhole or narrow lace or beading
is used. This is very pretty way
of making a simple waist attractive.
From all sides we hear rumors of
wider skirts and yet when we ex-
anime the models we find the large
ness consists in large quantity of
material in draperies. in flounces or
tunics. while the underskirt of found
alton remains as narrow or narrower
than ever. The tendancy of these
tunics is to widen out, measuring
about 271 to 3 yards in width, with
the fullness gathered in at the waist.
This style is practical to develop in
sheer and summary materials, and
later possibility for the development
of the heavier fabrics.
The tremendous popularity Of
lace is evidenced in the wraps and
gowns displayed of these materials
for midsummer. Long tunes OF
lace are worn over underskirth O.:
satin, taffeta and chiffon. Coats and
capes of lace have superseded those
of chiffon and taffeta. Skirts are
made with ruffles of lace from hip to
hem. If one is fortunate enough to
possess old lace it may be used to the
greatest advantage this season.
Among the most popular of the laces
are, first and formost, Chantilly. then
maline. shadow and filet lace. The
old Spanish patterns are being re-

The great novelty of the seasons
laces are the metal laces. Gold and
silver laces in dainty and quaint de-
signs combine charmingly with soft
taffeta and satins. Net top laces are
embroidered with beads of crystal,
gold or silver, and are much used for
tunics on dancing and evening frocks.
A dress of changeable blue and pink
has a skirt with a long tunic of net
delicately embroidered in iridescent
beads which harmonic charmingly

THE OULD COUNIRY SIOttE
BY John s. Ormsby
I fondly look back to the scenes of
my youth.
And the schoolhouse that stood on
the hill;
The stories and legends-the maxims
of truth,
Taught by Schoolmaster McGill.
The errands ran for the folks, when
lad,
see in bright visions of yore,
My merry companions, the fun we all
had,
When we called at the ould coun-
try store.
A nate little place, tho of primitive
style,
No rival to cope with was near,
The ould yellow thatch could be seen
for mile,
When the weather was far from
Needles an anchors, an camomile
flowers;
Cotton balls could be had by the
score,
All things ever made on this planet
o. ours,
Could be bought at the ould coun-
try store.
The jolly ould man that attended the
scales,
Andweighed out the sugar an tea,
Unwittingly smuggled some tenpenny
nails,
In the groceries vended to me.
The tally was kept by the schoolmas-
ter's chalk.
On the back O. the worm-eaten
door,
Double intry," said he. an out we
would walk,
With our wares from the ould
country store.
The tell me tits changed. the ould
cabins gone,
The landlord has blighted the
place;
While peelers an bailiffs live sloth-
fully on,
In this temple to Britain's disgrace.
Yet turn where I may, there's a
mim'ry yet,
OF place that is earthly no more,
For the heart of an exile can niver
forget,
The sight o. the ould country store.

Of the day originate. This distinc-
ton is held by the Prisians because
after all is said and done they have
virile ideas upon the subject Of dress
and are able to carry them out to
artistic advantage. Until it is de-
cided that some other place shall be
the arbiter of what we shall. and
shall not wear, this protest will have
but little influence.
With the vogue for the basque and
polonaise come many styles which
have their origin in these but are
modified to suit the women to whom
the mentioned styles are not becom-
ing. These last are moyen age in
type, being long of waist and loosely
belted in at the waist with belt or
sash. One stunning dress of this
variety is of white silk with a chiffon
overwaist which hangs straight from
the shoulders to the depth of long
tunic, but held in by a sash which
runs through Sits made in the chif-
fon. This is style which is easily
applied to cotton materials, such as
crepe, batiste and others.
The simple but dainty designs
called the polka dot and the ring
have had long period of being un-
noticed or, at least, not noticeably
smart. But this summer they are to
be seen in foulards, in wash silks. in
cotton crepes and, Of course percale
and calicos. In the illustration is a
simple and attractive dress made of
percale with a blue ring strewn
across its surface. The waist shows
the new tendency Of the armhole
which is growing smaller, and the
skirt has two circular founces. Crisp
white collar and cuffs and crushed
girdle are the finishing touch. This
is dress which can easily serve as
the model by which to plan a dress.
With waist and skirt of striped ma
terial and founces Of plain 1t would
be unusual in its attraction. Another
way Of finishing the dress would be
to bind the ruffle Of the sleeve. the
collar and the founces with a color
matching the figure in the psrcaie.
Never was style revived in great
er completeness than the basque. In
the tightness Of the armhole and the
buttons down the front, and the
points at the waist this modern
basque is an exact replica Of its an
cestor. The plain fitting long tunic
ia a conservative model Of its type
and one which the woman Of full
figure can easily wear.
The armhole Of the basque waist
is snug and certainly looks almost
