IT would hardly be possible to build
i gown on simpler lines than those
which appear in the soft and elegant
dress, of much distinction, which here
does honor to it's designer. Over a
skirt, straight and full, of crepe de
chine there is tunic Of fine net Dor.
dered with the sheerest of plaitings.
And over this again wide flouncing
of the filmiest black Chantilly lace laid
in two folds about the hips.
There is a bodice, which could not
be simpler in outline, of the crepe,
opening in a "V" at the front and
back and without sleeves. 1t is over
laid with the Chantilly lace and has
sleeves of this lace over white net.
If the designer had stopped at this
point he would have achieved a gown
Of quiet and elegant character, at
which one would look twice. But it
would not have possessed the brilliant
distinction of his finished product
which rivets the attention. For the
sake of sparkle and life a garniture Of
crystals and rhinestones has been
added to the already charming robe.
The bust and arm's-eye are outlined
with border of fine net edged with
rhinestones. Strands Of crystal beads
depend from 1t and hang to the waist
line, where they are caught up under
velvet girdle. A second fall of crys-

How to Test Water.

Every one knows and admits the ne
cessity for pure water. When you are
away from home, and are not sure Of
the character Of the water supply, IL
would not be bad idea to make few
simple tests. The results may prove
that 1t was decidedly worth while to
take the trouble. Here are two tests
that you can make very easily:
Fill tumbler with water, drop In q
lump Of white sugar, cover 1t with q
saucer, and let 1t stand overnight ON
the bricks at the side of the range, on
the kitchen mantelpiece, or, in fact.
anywhere where the temperature will
not sink below 60 degrees. IL next
morning the contents are clear, the
water is pure. II, on the other hand.
the liquid is cloudy, some source Of
contamination ia indisputably proved.
The second test Is to drop a few
grains of permanganate Of potash into
a tumbler Of water, cover, and lei
stand for an hour. II the water is stiu
Of the bright rosy color to which tha
chemical turned It, 1t Is perfectly safa
for drinking; II It Is of brownish
color, 1t Is impure, although the i'm.
purity may be OF the kind that boil

THE present fashion for short, full
! neckpieces of fur, or feathers or
fur-cloth, make it possible for every
one to afford cozy protection to the
throat. The suggestion Of comfort
that lies in these small pieces of win
ter apparel makes up half of their at
traction; they look comfortable and
they are comfortable, and also they
are becoming, which is the other half
of their appeal to women.
The open throat, in garments for
the street, is passe; everyone wants
a coat that fastens up close about the
throat, supplemented by sepa-
rate neckpiece or finished with band
of fur. 1t is especially chic to have
a fur-trimmed hat to wear with the
fur about the throat. In the newest
coats very. broad, ample turnover col
lars of fur appear on velvet and other
coats, and a collar of the same fur
encircling the crown of a broad
brimmed hat makes an effect Of lux
urious dressing just where it will be
most noticeable, that is, about the
face. A collar and hat Of this kind
are shown in the picture.
At the left small separate neck
piece of marten fur is shown, which
will harmonic with any sort or color
of costume. 1t consists of moderate
ly wide satin-lined, band finished with
feet with claws), and short tails of the
fur. 1t fastens at one side and is a
charming bit in the way of dress &C
cessories, made Of hard durable fur.
Similar neckpieces are made up in fox.

Candy VIII Cost More.

Representatives of leading confec.
TONERS announce that candy must ad-
vance in price and that there Is a pos
sibility of the manufacture of sweets
being suspended. This is due to the
discontinuance of the transportation
Of nuts, glace fruits and cane sugar
from foreign countries. Most of the
walnuts used come from France. the
almonds come from France, Italy and
Spain, the glace fruits come from
France. For the best candy a high
grade sugar is necessary, and the price
on that is rising and will go higher

Working Of Electric Lamps.

Electric lamps in the form of letters

door signs-are made in heights up to
three or four inches. Each lamp is a
tube with back of white enamel, and
contains number of tiny carbon fila

different letters, though all lamps are
adjusted to use the same amount Of
current. The letter lamp is mounted
on its individual socket. In use, the
socket is slid into a trough-shaped

HELP AT HOME.

Il is only within the past few
weeks that the public has awakened
to the serious fact that the misery
and restitution among our own
people are being too easily over
looked and set aside. While this is
no criticism of the generous sums
being sent abroad, it is yet plea for
those who, here in our midst, are
feeling the cruel results of the war;
unsurrounded by all that makes war
SO horrible, their case is no less
pitiful, and just as appalling. When
cold and starvation stare you In the
face it matters little whether you
meet 1t surrounded by young ones
in a dlngy, dark tenement hole or
among the ruins of what was once
your bright and comfortable home.
We can afford to help at home and
abroad; the former is a solemn duty,
the latter a God-given privilege.
Neither should be sacrificed at the
expense of the other.

SHOULD BE BARRED.

to have the Menace barred from the
use of the mails because OF its filth
and vile abuse the following is an
extract: 1.-THE knights Of Columbus
celebration of Columbus day this
year was a complete flash-in-the-pan.
In the first place the non-Catholic
people of this nation are learning
who Columbus was and are refusing
to be enthused over the alleged
exploits of this wife deserter, slave
trader and pirate. In the next place
they are finding out who the knights
of Columbus are and are refusing to
take stock in the public demonstra-
tions of an aggregation of mobbers
and cut-throats who are opposed to
the very principles of freedom and
democracy. When these hoodlums
are forced to hold these demonstra-
lions alone and single-handed, and
foot the bills in the same manner,
the Columbus day celebrations will
soon go the way of image worship
and other heather practices"

He came TO me, that gentle priest !;
And what was II OF men the least,
There in my workhouse cot, the
waste
or that which God had one time
placed
On earth, and thought II good, a
man
Whose destlnies to heaven span.
A waste, a wreck, and yet he came
To me, who cast away my claim
To touch the garments Of the clean I;
MY wish, to die and be unseen.
He came, and he who knew my soul
AS fouler than the sewers hole,
Took my poor hand and held II long,
Aye, clasped II with his grip so
strong,
Till I could feel his young blood
flow
Into my body wasted so:
And then he smiled, and called me
Friend"
He meant It; didn't condescend,
But made me feel that I was such
The like of him was pleased to
touch.

When cheerily he passed outside

And all night long I thought IL out,
That that's the way Christ walks
about.
And smiles and warmly takes your
hands,
And calls you friend and by you
stands,
As II He didn't know the shame
That all the world puts on your

AS II He didn't know your sin,
And didn't mind what you have

Just show you heavens open door

GREETINGS FROM HOLY ROSARY

Louisville, KY, Nov. %, 1914
Editor Kentucky Irish American: AS
there are only few weeks remain
ing of the first term of the present
year, we think it is time to inform
your readers of the notable incidents
that have occurred to break the
routine of school discipline at Holy
Rosary Academy. We have read
with interest the accounts of school
life given by our neighboring acad-
emies and trust our happenings will
meet with as cordial a welcome from
the readers of the Kentucky Irish
American as those issued in the past.
On Monday, September 8, the
usual custom of opening the scholas-
tic year with holy mass at st. Louis
Bertrand's church was observed, the
faculty, pupils and patrons attend
ing. This year is especially an
auspicious one for the academy, as
the enrolment is the largest on rec
ord. The Euterpean Circle has been
recognized and new officers elected.
This procedure was accompanied by
the usual programme consisting of
musical solos, games and the serving
of refreshments. The pleasant Wis
it's of our pastor, Rev. Father Crow
ley, and his hearty appreciation of
our school work have encouraged
and animated us to no little degree.
But the browning feature up to the
present date was a reading OF Joan
of Arc by Miss Ruelmann, of Gin
cinnati. 1t was our pleasure to have
Miss Ruelmann with us on one Oc-
