DAINTY LITTLE DRESS
PARTICULARLY DESIGNED FOR
WOMEN OF SLENDER FIGURE,
Nothing Better In Summer Evening
Frocks Has Been Offered Than
This TypIcaIly French confec-
ton Described.

II you are slender and rather tall
you can wear the dress of the sketch
and know that it was designed for
your particular type, but if you are
well, If you are not, it will certainly
never do. 1t was worn by young
woman to whom it was not at all
suited at recent private dance, but
the dress itself was SO altogether
dainty and youthful that 1 am sending
home sketch in case any one wishes
to copy it for a lovely summer eve
ming frock, writes Lillian E. Young in
g letter from Paris to the Washington
Star.
These many ruffied skirts are ex-
tremely modish just now, and are
most becoming to the type that suit,
for, naturally, the design lends full
ness to slight figure and cuts the
height as well.
In this instance dawn-pink chiffon
was used throughout, though if some
thing little more substantial is pre-
ferred the skirt may be Of tafeta, and
the bodice of chiffon to match. The
little bow knots set at the top of each
f1ounce down the left side Of the skirt

LUKE McLUkE SAYS.

! Two women can love one man and
not spend anything. But when one
/ man lovds two women he usually
goes broke.
Some men like to go out with a
painted woman. But they'd hate to
come home to one.
The reason man has to be such a
good listener after marriage is be-
cause he talked too much when he was
counting.
! Before they are married they stroll
along the street Clinging so Closely to
! each other that you couldn't wedge a
| cigarette paper between them. After
marriage you could drive moving
van between them when they are on
the street and they wouldn't notice it.
| When you see young man climb
on a street car late at night with a
Smudge of face powder on the lapel of
his coat and his trousers creased at
the bottoms but gabby at the knees,
you can bet that his girl is corn-fed.
There never was a young woman
who didn't like to gamble some way or
another. And there never was woman
who didn't get mad if her husband
takes a chance.
You can know of a man by getting
drunk with him. But to know a
woman you have to marry her.
| The trouble with a good lobster is
, that he usually gives a continuous per-
! Torrance.
| We all expect a ton of Gratitude for
an ounce of Charity.
| You always notice how whisky
smells on the other fellows breath,
but you know people can't. smell it
A Princess can be the life of the
Party and the most Winsome Smiler
in the world when she is out of com
pany. But you should get peep at
her map when her mother asks her
| to help wash the dishes.
What has become of the old-fash-
Toned gambler who used to wear a
hold-out in his sleeve?

were in aZure-blue velvet ribbon, and
lent a delightfully."- quaint touch to the
costume. The sleeves were similarly
trimmed.
Don't get the idea that such skirt
is hard to make. 1t isn't-but it will
require some time and care to arrange
the fiounces evenly. They are simply
straight strips Of the material
doubled if of chiffon, but single in
taffeta) about six to seven inches
deep and evenly gathered at the top
and attached to a plain foundation
skirt underneath. This may be Of
strong net or of china silk or NOUS
seine.
The bodice will need a net inner
waist. The chiffon over-part was cut
with short kimono sleeves finished
with frill of chiffon, and the open
neck, too, had finishing frill.
The girdle was rather broad and
topped by an outstanding ruff1e Of the
skirt material. 1t tied at one side
with a long end and loop caught un-
der a naturallooking rose.
The same dress would be delightful
In taffeta and chiffon of that lovely
cream shade that suggests it might
have lain for years in some old at
tic chest, and the girdle could be OF
turquoise blue velvet caught with a
silver gauze rose, while the small
bowknots in the skirt could be made
of very narrow silver gause ribbon
Again, Powered taffeta, in one of the
small wreath patterns, will make an
other charming variation.
You will probably be able to guess
from designs such as this that fuller
skirts are really on the way.

Great Poets Snlendid Eyes.

According to Trelaway no man had
brighter eyes than Byron; they were
gray, and fringed with long black
iaShes. Lady Blessington, writing OF
him few months before his depar-
ture to Greece, adds that one eye was
visibly larger than the other.

Praise.

Praise is of no use as a main
spring. Power lies outside of it, and
entirely independent of it, in all truly
valuable lives. Tennyson, the poet,
WAS also the practical man when he
remarked, Il think it is wisest in a
man to do his work in the world as
7uietly and as well as he can, without
much needing praise or dispraise.-

In the matter of a general investi- gation into the operation and man. ming of passenger and freight trains within the state, to determine what orders, regulations or recommenda- tions if any, may be necessary for the safety and protection of the public or of the employees of any railroad com pany operating such trains, the Con- necticut public utilities commission has announced its finding, which is as fol- lows:
 The conclusion of the commission as @ result of the present investigation is that in general the freight and pas- senger trains operated over the rail- roads in this state are now sufficiently manned and operated with a degree of safety which no order for general in- crease of trainmen would augment.
 The permission granted by the rail- road commissioners in May, 1896, un- der the provisions of section 1899 of the general statutes applied only to the New York. New Haven and Hart ford Railroad company, and made no provision or distinction as to the type of car or coach, whether passenger, baggage, Pullman, mail, or express, and the second clause of the order or per- mission hereinbefore quoted appears to be inconsistent with the previous clause.
 To make more definite therefore. and in the interest of uniformity ap- pIicable to all steam railroad compa- nies operating revenue passenger trains in this state and having a sys- tenn of brakes operated by the engf- neer, the commission deems it ad- visabIe to modify and amend said per- mission and order, and the same is hereby modified and amended, as fol- lows:
 First. On all revenue passenger trains composed of not exceeding two cars and operated by any steam rail- road company over its lines in this state. there shall be at least one brake man, who may be baggageman. This provision, however, shall not apply to electric street railway cars operating 1 over steam railroad tracks.

ELECTRIC POWER co.
 WANTS RIGHTS EXTENDED.
Lyme Company Desires to Do suat-
 ness Along the Shore.

A petition has been filed by Lyme Electric Power Co. to broaden the terms of organization so that it may furnish electric heating and power to run small industries as well as for light which it now has and dalso that ft may do business in its own name south of the railroad tracks in the : town of East Lyme. This field south of the railroad track is controlled at present by the Crescent Beach Power Go, which in turn is owned by J. T Cruttenden and family and last spring friction arose between the Beach Co. and the Lyme Co. and for a short time the latter company refused to furnish any power for the Crescent Beach Co. and the beach people were without power.
 This field south of the track en- braces also the Black Point territory which is fast becoming the richest as- set of the town and the people there are demanding electricity as well, Al of the equipment south of the tracks in the territory is owned by the Lyme company now and the only means that the Crescent Beach Co., has of zetting power Is through the former com pany.
