Tho Interior is loosely lined with
soft white silk. and a pocket is ar.
ranged In the lining of the lid in which

The box from which our sketch was
drawn was covered with cream-colored
silk on which appeared a pretty de-
sign consisting of pale pink blossoms
and tiny green leaves, and the ribbon
strings which secure the box when
closed were selected of color to
match the flowers. as also was the
broader ribbon of the rosette bow that
is tackled to the right-hand corner OF
the box.
Dainty boxes of this kind are, OF
course. useful for many other pur-
poses. and even empty they make a
most acceptable little present for an
unimportant occasion.

military buttons with loops outlined
by a thread of gold, says the Dry
Goods Economist, are among the eff.

The gold idea is also evident in the
braid field. Very soft hercules braids

to speak of Oliver. She was riding as
far from the edge of the precipice as
possible. In descent 1t looked very
formidable to her unaccustomed eye.

WAR PICTURES
At sbc Dream Theatre.


 
 War pictures on the Cinema, a pri- vato exhibition of which was givon to the Juneau press club the other day, proved to be a remarkable series of film With the Greeks on the Err ing Line"-primarily it should be mem tined that these pictures were taken by the express command and personal help of the King Of Greece. These pictures wni be shown at the Dream theatre of this city on Wednesday and Thursday the 10th and 1lth, two shows each evening. All seats. 50c.
 The earliest views were of saloni- ca, showing the damage done to the buildings in the towns and the diih- culties experienced by the Greeks in dislodgng the Bulgarlans who re. mained. Next came Q series of views of Serres. showing Che action of the Bulgarians in retarding the advance of their foes The whole film gave a good general Idea of the tremendous devastation wrought by shell and bull jet in the Greek lines. The scenes of camp life and the work of the Red Cross companies were very interest. ing. and some idea was given of the dangerous positions in which Che pno- tographers found themselves by pic ture taken forty yards from a battery from which the holders were disloaged with the loss of six killed and thir- teen wounded. All will praise the bravery Of the Greeks and the heroic way In which they endure pain when wounded. Cheers were evoked by a picture Of Greek lad, Apostulos Raptis, fifteen years of age, though wounded In the head, persisted in lighting, as well as by pictures of an Irish nurse who was idolized by the wounded soldiers.
