On the other hand, Paul Poiret,
who last fall brought out the minaret
tunic so successfully, to his own sur
prise, as we'll as everybody else's, is
now showing skirts and gowns which
fall straight to the floor without
break. Some skirts are so loose and
large at the waisthne that the sus-
penderS of the same material are as
much OF necessity as an ornament.
The Balkan style, which scenes to
have originated on this side of the
water, is taking quite hold in Paris,
and is favored by Polret. AS a result,
he madea very handsome oyster
white linen dress with waist or jer-
kin falling straight well below the
hips and fastening, on each shoulder,
with large jet button. 1t was belted
loosely with a wide patent-leather
belt. The skirt was straight-hanging
and rather wider than those we have

IMPROVED HOUSING SCHEME

The duchy of Cornwall estate in
South London, which belongs to the

Already a marvellous change has been
wrought in the aspect of the neigh

in narrow and tortuous streets have

flats and cottages, abutting on thor

PROFIT IN STUDY OF WORDS
Much Can Be Accomplished by Devot-
ing a Short Time EacF, Day
to the Subject.

The study of words; it may sound
to you dry thing, yet | promise
you it is not-very far from it. And
this brings me to suggest that the
habit of one of the great writer's of
studying carefully from good die
tionary five words each day is one
from which we might all of us get
good deal of profit. Or, take a good
book of synonyms, for instance, and
learn from it each day five words
somewhat similar, comparing and
weighing carefully the meanings and
values of them. Notice the degrees
of force in the following: To dislike,
to hate, to loathe, to detest, to abb
hor-each note struck is a little
stronger, higher, we might say, like
an ascending crescendo scale. So,
to instruct, to teach, to educate are
each quite different in meaning, with
great nicely of difference. So, re-
buke, reprimand, censure, blame are
all of one color, but of how different
shades of meaning. So, too, misfor-
tune, calamity, disaster; so, weak,
feeble, decrepit; and what delicate
difference between fame and renown,
or feminine and womanly and wom-
anish ?-Exchange.

GO THE LIMIT IN SHAVING
Natives Of India Exceptionally Liberal
in Their Use of the Keen
Edged Razor.

The natives of India 90 in a great
deal for shaving, and do not confne
themselves to merely shaving the
chin, but on occasion will shave the
eyebrows, as well, and in the case of
certain rites and ceremonies, the
head, too, is completely shaved.
No soap is used, but the beard is
softened by being rubbed over with a
little cold water. The razors en-
ployed are generally of native manu-
facture and have fixed handles that
do not fold ; moreover, they are very
much heavier than those of European
make. The strop consists of a small
piece of leather the size of a mans
palm, and is held in the open hand
during stropping.
The recognized cost of shave is
one pice, which is the exact equiva-
lent of one farthing. With western
education, however, conditions are
rapidly changing, and many native
gentlemen now shave themselves.
The advent of safety razors will
doubtless do much toward breaking
down prejudice among natives
against shaving themselves.

UNFORTUNATE PHRASE.

"Franz der Kaiser" Napoleon's
father-in-law, who was rather weak
and silly ruler, had, nevertheless,
thoroughgoing belief in absolutism,
and in the divine right to rule of
even the most incompetent of the
Hapsburgs. His abilities, such as
they were, were best displayed in
catechisms that he wrote and printed
for the use of his humber subjects
and in peevish criticisms of those of
superior intelligence.
According to the author of a re-
cent life of Archduchess Maria Lou
lisa of Austria, entitled, can Impe-
rial Victim" the emperor once ragged
against his doctor for remarking
that he had ga good constitution +"
"Never let me hear that word
again!" he said. ,"Say robust healtl.,

SIMPLY TRUE TO INSTINCT
Bulls Realized With Whom They Had
to Do and Took Action
Accordingly.

When the conversation led up to
the wonderful instinct of some ami
mails Elias M. Ammons, governor of
Colorado, came across with a story
about two metropolitan brokers.
The brokers were having an after
luncheon smoke one afternoon, and
one of them became reminiscent.
GLOW well do [ remember when [
was barefoot lad" observed the
broker. 'In those days the most of
my time was spent in looking after
the stock on fathers farm. I'll never
forget the day that father roped a
couple of bulls and told me to hold
them while he went into the barn for
a moment"
''What did they do to you?'' asked
the second broker.
SThey didn't do a thing to me"
answered the first. 'They scorched
my hands with the rope, they upset
me, they mauled me and they walked
all over me-
81 don't doubt it in the least" re-
turned the second. 'Unruly dispo-
sitions, I suppose ?'
"No, it wasn't that" replied the
first. at was case of wonderful
instinct. They sized me up at
glance as a small stakeholder and
knew what is generally done to small
stockholders"
