The ribbon run through the tucks serves a double purpose of trimming and giving the effect of flare ard
 in one way or another that effect must be accomplished if the dancing gown is to be
 up-to-date. Cords and trimmings of the sort are being exten- sively used to pro- duce that result. If ribbon is not liked or silk or crepe or other material that is not transparent is used, the edge of the skirt and the edge of each tuck could be finished with a cord to nelp along the effect of width. Whatever the ma teriaL the pretty lines will remain, and it is the lines that make 9 costume. Since the skirt is straight and the bodice is a very sim pie one, the gown IS easy to make and at the same time, new and in the very height of style. Like many another model it changes in character as one material or another is used. If a summer wardrobe is being considered, the gown can be made of one of the dainty cotton crepes with simple lace as trim- ming and perhaps with ribbon used for the bodice or girdle.

The Mines of Spain.

More than one-third of the quick silver produced in the world last year came from the mines of Spain. Those mines were worked centuries before Christ, and they seem good for cen turies more Other quicksilver sup. plies are discovered, exploited for a time, and exhausted, but no bottom has been found to the veins of Spanish cinnabar.
 Many high authorities hold that other mineral resources of Spain are quite as splendid in proportion as her su- premacy in the production of mercury. Spanish iron ore is sometimes shipped to the United States, yet the mines are said to be worked in very clumsy, ineffective fashion. It is even claimed that the coal supplies of the peninsu- la are superior to those of any other part of the continent, hut these. again, are managed in a careless, indolent, unscientific manner.

ANCIENT MONEY MUCH FREED
Believed to Be Currency Used by Tribes Before the Era of the
 Roman Empire.

Peasants blowing field in the com mune of Castelfranco dell' Emilia. in Italy, in the year 1897 turned up big Umbrian vase full of aes-signatum. which is ancient money marked with @ sign, supposedly that of tribe. There were in all 96 pieces. all covered with the characteristic patina of bronze that has been buried for ages.
 The aes-signatum of the early Ro- mans is not very rare, hut only one other find of this far more ancient money has been made. This was at Fiesole, near Florence, hut unfortu- nately the finders had no idea of it's value or rarity and all of 1t was melted down for a bronze founder except one single specimen. There IS not one specimen in the British museum and very few other museums have any.
 How old this money is we can only guess. The best authorities say 1t is pre-Roman. probably the money of the Italic tribes that, if not aboriginal, in- habited southern Europe about 1000 B. c. There has been muc1 contro- versy over this money, and there are few archeologists who even deny that it was real money. Each piece is of solid bronze and bears on it's surface a figure which is supposed to be the sign of the tribe to which 1t belonged.

This dress of royal blue taffeta is one of the best and most attractive that have appeared among a great number of models employing this silk. It is of that soft variety called chiffon taffeta; and is the coolest and crisp est of gowns for midsummer, outside the world of wash fabrics.
 The skirt has plain-fitted yoke ex- tending to the hips, to which the body is sewed. This latter is made of the silk laid in close, single box plaits and is finished with a two and one-half inch hem at the bottom Three rows of stitching. set close together, and parallel to each other, sew the plaits down at the top to the yoke and make a neat finish. The hem is also ma chine stitched.
 The coat is cut with a plain yoke also. The lower edge of the yoke is cut in shallow curves with an incon- spicuous point at each side on the bust. The point reappears in the cen ter of the back. Reversing the order of things in the skirt, the yoke over- laps the plaits in the jacket and bat two rows of stitching are used in join ing it to the body rolling collar and turned-back cuffs, as plain as can be, take care of the finishing of neck and sleeves. A plain belt made over a crinoline foundation, three inches wide. is tackled to the jacket little below the normal waist line. It is or

namented with three ball buttons at the front. They are forms covered with the silk, and two of them are used on the cuffs in the manner shown in the picture. White ball buttons Of composition are effectively used on gowns of blue or black taffeta and might be substituted for those that are silk-covered, to add snap to this trim suit.
 The neck is much improved by a collar of white poplin, or one of organ die, which rolls over the coat collar and fulfills its mission of placing white near the throat and face.
 A hat of malines and velvet, with white satin flowers and small feather cockade at the front, and purse Of dark blue leather, banded with white, are accessories that add tone to a dress that is distinguished by veY clever designing. It seems very sifSe pie but the best of talent is required to achieve simplicity and distinction at the same time.

 Young Ostrander bowed.

 MT Black glanced at Deborah who was slipping away. When they found themselves alone together. Divers manner altered.

 She is quite recovered. MT Os. trander."
 Involuntarily their glances met in a question which perhaps neither desired to have answered. Then Oliver re marked quite simply:
 My haste seemed warranted by my fathers message. Five minutes-one minute even is of great importance when you have but fifteen in which tc catch a train"
 And by such a route!"
 You know my route." A short laugh escaped him. "I feared delay-pos sibly the interference-but why dis cuss these unimportant matters! But that is what I am ready now tc hear" And he sat down, but in suct way as to throw his face very much into the shadow.
 This was a welcome circumstance to the lawyer. His task promised tt be hard enough at the best. Blacl | night had not offered too dark scree1 between him and the man thus sudden ly called upon to face suspicious tn, very shadow of which is enough to de stroy life. The hardy lawyer shrunl from uttering the words which would make the gulf imaginatively openin, between them real, if not impassabl' one.

 You want to know what has hap. pened here?

 Silence in that shadowy corner! But this the speaker had expected, and must have exacted even if Oliver had shown the least intention of speaking
 "A man was killed here in the old days-pardon me if I am too abrupt and another man was executed for this crime. You were boy-but you must remember"
 He paused. One must breathe be. tween the blows he inflicts. even if one is lawyer.
 That was twelve years ago. Not so long a time as has elapsed since you met a waif of the streets and chastised him for some petty annoy. ance. But both events, the great and the little. have been well remembered here in Shelby; and when Mrs. Sco- vile came amongst us month or so ago, with her late but substantial proofs of her husbands innocence in the matter of Etheridges death, there came to her aid man, who not only remembered the beating he had re- ceived as a child. but certain facts which led him to denounce by name, the party destined to bear at this late day the onus of the crime heretofore ascribed to Scoville.

 The hat with braid brim has a small crown made of a circular piece of lace gathered about the edge and sewed to it. A frill of lace, not quite so wide as the brim, is sewed to the base of the crown and falls over the brim.

Not much that is new may be said about the hats for little girls. since mothers have been almost of one mind in selecting bonnet-like shapes for the fair little faces of their daughters. But here is something new in soft hat of ribbon, and also remodeled hat with braid brim and lace crown, which the home milliner will enjoy making for her own or for some other small lady.
 The first hat is made of satin ribbon, in a light color, about four inches in width Hardly two yards of it are needed, a little over a yard for one length and about three-quarters for the second for a child of five to six years. The longer length of ribbon is to be shirred over a cord on one edge and gathered on the other. The shorter length is gathered on one edge and joined to the gathered edge of the longer ribbon by piping covered with a narrow bias band of satin or with Q narrow ribbon. The remaining edge is to be gathered up with three shirred pintucks in a group near it. The gath ering thread at the edge is drawn up to form the top of the cap.
 Ready-made ruching in a double fold and plaited frill of narrow lace are sewed in about the face. Tiny roses of chiffon. or ribbon, or little millinery flowers are set about the edge and the hat is finished ready for lining. The lining is to be cut from thin silk, or null, matching the ribbon. It is made

loud words which l will not repeat. but which you must understand were such as must be met and answered when the man so assailed is Judge Ostran- der. Have said enough? If so, raise your hand and will desist for to- night"
 But no movement took place in the shadow cast by Divers figure on the wall before which MT. Black had paused, and presently a voice was heard from where he sat, saying: You are too merciful I do not want generalities but the naked truth. What did the men shout?"
 You have asked for fact. and that I feel free to give you They shouted Where is Oliver. your guilty son. Oli- yer? You saved him at poor mans expense, but we'll have him yet You asked me for the words. MT Ostran- der"
 Yes" The pause was long, but the Yes" came at last. Then another si- lence, and then this peremptory de mand: But we cannot stop here, MT. Black If am to meet my fathers wishes tomorrow, I must know the ground upon which I stand. What evi- dence lies back of these shouts? If you are my friend-and you have shown yourself to be such-you will tell me the whole story. I shall say nothing more"
 MT. Black was not walking now; he | nd fn tho shadow also. And with this space and the double shadow between them. Alan son Black told Oliver Ostrander why the people had shouted: We will have him yet"
 When he had quite finished. he came into the light
 When he had quite finished he came into the light. He did not look in the direction he had avoided from the first, but his voice had a different note as he remarked:
 "I am your fathers friend, and have promised to be yours. You may expect me here in the morning, as am one of the few persons your father has asked to be present at your first interview. If after this interview you wish anything more from me you have only to signify 1t. I am blunt. but not unfeeling, MT. Ostrander."
 A slight lift of the hand, visible now in the shadow, and with silent bow he left the room.
 In the passage-way he met Deborah
 Leave him to himself" said he Later, perhaps. you can do something for him."
 But she found this quite impossible Oliver would neithe eat nor sleep When the early morning light came he was sitting there still

'etrograd Says Fighting Has Become More and More Des
perate and Admits Germans Made Some Advances
but That They Were Subsequently Driven Back
Armies in West Remain Comparatively Inactive;
Austrians Reported Trapped in Galicia

German armies are again striking
Along the VistuIa, TO the west of the
Polish capital, heavy fighting has been
resumed, and at the same time new
attack has been launched from the
north. The Petrograd war ob ce de-
scribes the fighting as more and
more desperate" and admits that the
Germans made advances at many
points, but states that they were sub
sequently driven back again.
Coincident with the Russian sweep
through the Austrian province of
Bukowina, plans are under way in
the adjacent country of Rumania for
mobilization of the army. Unofficial
advices state that the entrance of Ru-
mania into the war is expected.
A Geneva report says that an Aus
trian army has been trapped in Gal
icia by the Russians who by an uneX-
pected movement caught the Aus
trians at a disadvantage on difficult
ground and placed them in a precari-
Gus position. There was no confirma-
ton, however, of this report.
In contrast with the heavy fighting
in the east the armies in the west, so
far as was revealed, remained COM
