Little Hints on Style

One is really able to say this summer
that clothes for women are delightful,
They are full enough to be graceful, they
are ruffly and frilly. the colors are ex-
quisite and so are materials.
Particularly charming are the tafteta
coats in either white or pale shades,
made in the most picturesque shapes
with ruffles OF the same. or lace, or
wreaths Of flowers. In fact, you cannot
have one too fancy, and they may be cut
In any shape you please, the old Godeys
Ladies' Books yielding up some fetching
ones. Such combinations as pale blue
with silver lace, rose tsfsta with seal.
loDed ruffls OF the same beaded with
band OF chiffon roses, white taffeta with
black polka-dotted collar, cuffs and sash,
are just suggestions.
Nothing is more trim than the sailor
suits as seen abroad, with short, full
skirts and high Russian boots.
White collars and cuffs are so per-
ishable for the children's dresses Why
not make them of n contrasting color In
linen?

Arms and the Woman.

Did anybody ever see one armed
woman?' asked a gray headed man as
he surveyed the afternoon parade. Il
never did. Almost every day meet
one armed men. but | have yet to en-
counter woman with that pitifully
empty sleeve Are there no women
who have suffered that mutilation? Ii
not. why noti And, if so. where are
they? Yesterday | heard it argued that
there was no cause for woman to
lose an arm; that women do not go to
the wars and are not engaged in occu-
pations that are likely to carry away
a part of their body. But that reason
ing is not sound Many women work
in mills and factories, and they are as
liable to accidents in the streets and
public conveyances as men. Frequent
ly they figure in these accidents: but.
although men in the same situation
would lose an arm, women never do.

thing that seems to worry the old line
bosses most is the expected entrance oi
Blair Lee into the field of candidates for

meanwhile are casting desperately about
for some dyed in the wool candidate with

Venetian Coffee.

In the year 1891 a Venetian doctor
introduced coffee berries from Egypt,
taught his countrymen how to crush
them and brew the beverage, and the
use Of coffee soon became general-so
much so, in fact, that Venice was full
of coffee houses where the people idled
away their days drinking the aromatic
beverage. A popularity Of the Vene.
tian coffee houses was that their pa.
irons did not pay for each cup of cof.
fee they drank, but settled their bills
for all the coffee consumed at the end
of each year The regular price of a
cup of coffee was soldi. about 215

READING NOTICES
A HYMN OF HATE

And this I hate-not men, nor flag, nor
race,
But only War with it's wild, grinning face
God strike it till it's eyes be blind as night,
And all it's members tremble with alright
Oh let it hear in its death agony
The wall of mothers for their bestowed
ones,
And on it's head
Descend the venomed curses OF its sons
Who followed her, deluded, where it's guns
Had dyed the daisies red.
All these I hate-war and it's panoply,
The lie that hides it's CHASTITY mockery,
That makes it's glories out Of women's
tears,
The toll of peasants through the burdened
years,
The legacy of long disease that preys
On bone and body in the afterdays.
God curses pour,
Until it shrivel with it's votaries
And die away in its own fiery seas,
That nevermore
It's dreadful call of murder may be heard
A thing accursed in very deed and word
From blood-drenched shore to shore!

We are trusting each other more. The
reason is, that the more we trust, the
more we become trustworthy. What War
den Osborne of Sing Sing prison has found
out about criminals is true of humanity
everywhere; the more you repose conf

to it. And the more you treat people like
beasts and devils; the more beastly and
devilish they prove themselves.
