The simple, attractive dress, of
butchers linen, shown here, lays no
claim to innovations and Improvement
in shape, but is a model that persists
from season to season on the strength
of its many merits. II is little two
piece affair, just a dress and wide
belt Of the same material.
The dress and upper part of the
sleeves are cut in one piece with XII
mono shoulder. The lower part of
the sleeves is set in under a hem in
the upper part, which has the effect
Of tuck in the sleeves. This makes
it possible to use narrow as well as
wide materials for this pattern.
The neck is square and finished with
buttonholed scallops. Small sprays of
flowers and eyelets embroidered in
colored floss like that used for the
scalloped edges provide the decora-
ton and enliven the design. The
sleeves are also finished with seal
lops.
The belt is run through slides of the
linen placed at each side and fastened
with a fiat pearl button at the front
Bright red and delft blue are the
colors liked best for embroidering
these linen dresses in white or I'M
bleached linen. On the latter white
floss is often used. but the red or blue
gives opportunity for matching up hair
ribbons and embroidery.
Among the novelties in children's
models are those little dresses of sheer
white materials cut much like the
linen dress shown here but having the
portion below the belt made of single,

TO BRIGHTEN DEVILS
Example of Superstition in Eight

When the Science Of Medicine Was
Emerging From a State Of lano-
rance Doctors Had to Adjust
Selves to Circumstances.

The idea that a horse chestnut in
your pocket will cure rheumatism or
that the wearing of a red string on
the finger will stop nose bleed, and
many other foolish beliefs which still
persist are part Of our heritage from
the days when what is now the sci
ence OF medicine was only a curious
mass Of superstition.
For centuries mankind had little or
no accurate knowledge of the nature
OF disease and it's causes. Among all

PROVES STRENGTH OF HEART
InfaIIIbIe Test, According 90 PromI-
nent Physician, 10 tho Ability
70 Hold the Breath.

DR.. w. A. Schtange, in a recent
number Of the Roussky Vratch, ex-
plains why q healthy person can sus-
pend breathing for from thirty to
forty seconds, or, with practice, for
three times as long. This depends,
the doctor asserts, not on the lung
capacity but upon the vigor OF the
heart muscle. In a word, the longer
you can hold your breath the greater
is your heart power, persons with
weak hearts being unable to suspend
their breathing for more than twenty
or even ten seconds.
Doctor Schtange, who is a surgeon
Of note, tests his patients In this novel
way before giving them q general
anesthetic, such as ether or chloro-
form. Seated in chair, the patient
Is instructed to take a deep inspira-
ton and, with the mouth closed, to
hold his breath as long as he can. The
longer he can hold Il the less danger
will there be from the anesthetic,
and should he not be able to suspend
his breathing for as long as twenty
seconds, the anesthetic is, as the doc
tor says. "contra-indicated."

All sorts of new bags were brought
out to meet the demand for new &C
cessories of dress which arrive with
each Easter.
Besides the bags of pin-seal and
other feathers, of which examples are
shown in the illustration, there are
bags of MORE silk and of brocaded
ribbons. The handsome beaded bags,
never out of style. appeared also. with
new fastenings and handsome silk
tops.
Bags are medium and smaller than
medium in size, but manage to carry
the essential fittings. The small coin
purse and the small attached mirror
are conveniences that cannot be dis
pensed with. In the new bag the lit
tie coin purse is fastened to the bag
with a fine chain of gun metal or sill
yer and the mirror is attached to the
frame of the bag with narrow rib
bon. There is no trouble in finding
them, and they cannot be misplaced.
Many of the bags of pin-seal are
lined with Powered silk. This makes
striking contrast with the outside
OF the bag, which is unusually plain.
Soft leather and good workmanship in
making are the points that spell sue
cess in the new bags. Some of them
are made with several compartments,
90 that women may practice some sys-
tenn OF orderliness in carrying the
pumter Of things which will accumu-
late in a handbag.
The bags of silk and those that are
beaded are long and rather narrow.
They are mounted on collapsible
rims which may be pulled out to '
mouth as large as the bag is wide aal

Made Queer Mistake.

A Pittsburgher who passed through
Washington on his way to New York
is wondering what kind OF specimens
of humanity blow into the national
capital. He says he had taken Penn
sylvania avenue car going up town
from the station, and he sat NEXT to a
mild-looking old gentleman who
seemed to be wrestling with some Sc
cret sorrow. When the car turned
the corner OF Fifteenth street the
shake-up brought the old fellow out
OF his reverie and he looked up to see
the monument towering over the ad
jacent vicinity. Pardon me-" he said
to the Pittsburgher, may / ask what
that lofty structure over there is?"

The aeroplanes being swifter, would
be sent against the dirigible in focks
OF three or four. The aviators would
depend on their speed and the great
altitude to which they can ascend to
keep out OF range. At the proper time
the bombs would be released on the
wires and a dash made at the enemy.
In addition to the triggers, which
can be locked until the bomb is ready
for use, the bombs are fitted with
sharp graphing hooks. AS the wire
is drawn across the big gas bag the
hooks will catch and draw the trig-
gers into contact with the envelope

A little rouge carefully applied
will often freshen up the skin and

The same exercises that reduce
