Wandering Hither and Yon
Over All the New Dresses
Is Braid-Preferab Gray
Braid, or Gold or Silver.
Applied In Complicated
Designs That Tease the
Eye.
The Motifs Suggest the EN-
broideries of the Russian
Ballet, AS Designed BY
Bakst and Approved BY
{! the Admirers of His Art.
. A Suggestion of the ORR
entail AS Well.

TT may have been the braided
coat of the hussar that started
the fashion. Or it may have
been the gay embroideries Of the
Bakst ballet costumes. Suffice to
say, no costume Of the winter will
be complete without its miles and
miles Of meandering braid, twining
hither and yon down skirts, up
coates, and round about collars.
Strangely enough, the favorite
color for this braid is gray-gray
Of q Quaker dullness that gives its
bit Of contrast to the dark shades
acceptable for the winter. Incon-
spicuous as gray usually is, it stands
= out quite boldly against the dark
background.
Black braid will not do--certainly
not. What is the use Of appliqueing
bolt upon bolt of braid il it doesn't
show? Braid to match the costume
exactly is even less desirable.
Those who have plenty Of money
to spend may substitute dull gold or
silver braid for the gray, or even
outline the gray braid with metallic
thread, picking out the outline even
more decidedly.
The designs would battle all but
the calm of spirit. So intricate are
they, with their queer mixture Of
Slavic and Oriental motifs, that to
follow their wanderings with ones
needle is an education in itself.

The Secret Anti.

When everyone talks OF suffrage
And most OF the talk IL pro.
She always says with a fine, wise smile:
Really. didn't you know
That I'd always been for suffrage?
Hadn't you ever heard?
Dear me, yes. And those opposed,
Are not they too absurd?"
But as soon as the talk Is over,
Her faith Is over. too:
And IL you draw her aside and say:
What are you willing to do?
VIII you Work for a day or an hour?
viii you give us the price of a hat?"
She answers: mo. for I'm not, you
know,
As much in favor as that"

will 10 hold the ribs and chest firmly
unmoved. The diaphragm IL now de-
pressed by putting out the abdomen at
each intake OF the air and drawing II
back TO Its utmost as the air IL exhaled
from the lungs. This sort OF exercise
helps to cure constipation. to prevent
appendicitis and TO strengthen the walls
and muscles OF the abdomen.
Practice These Exercises.

window or on a porch and. in an upright
posture, to practice breathing exercises

Respiratory gymnastics Of one kind
may be obtained by placing the hands on
the hips. elevating the collar-bones and
raising the shoulders as high as possible.
During this manoeuvre the breath should
be held.
Now expand the chest as the breath IL
drawn in. Finally, depress the diaphragm
and swell out the abdomen. This COM
pletes the inspiration. With the lungs
expanded to their fullest capacity, hold
the breath as long as possible. When
strong to resist. abruptly and suddenly
expel the air.
Sixteen times IL perhaps too often at
FIRST to perform such sweeping, COM
plete respirations In sequence. Five or
six times should suffice until the power
increases. Then two commonplace rou-
tine respIrations between the deep ones
will permit Of as many as two dozen OF
more each time. In this way the lungs
will become vigorous and efficient.

THE simplicity and neatness
i of this design are very
striking. Style note is brought
in with the diagonal closing OF
the blouse-left or right side
may be chosen for fastening.
The collar in contrasting note
and buttons covered in matching
tone, give smartness to the
model. Long or short sleeves
are correct style. The four
gored skirt Boosting a pocket and
closing at side front, is joined to
the belt made of material in the
collar. Bingham, SeerSucker,
Indian head, chambray, and sim
liar fabrics are good for this type
of garment. If you will copy

What are the churches of the United States
doing TO alleviate the suffering in Poland and
other war centers? Must everything of that
nature be left TO secular relief concerns? The
war offers a magnificent opportunity for the
Christian churches-as churches-to do some
thing tangible toward making their prayers
come true. The splendid organization they pos
sess could do wonders in helping TO relieve the
distress in wartorn Europe II sometimes seems
that our churches have such high overhead eX-
penses and have such trouble in meeting them,
that there is nothing left for work Of this char
acter. Yet. If they would keep the ears of their
congregations attuned TO the misery of the
world and furnishing an organization that would
receive funds for relief work. m astounding
work could be performed. In starting an or

CITIES AND TOWNS JUDGED BY THE
NEWSPAPERS PRINTED THEREIN.

"Show me some copies of the paper published
in your town and will tell you some facts about
it and your people" The man who said that was
an active business man, who was considering an
expansive business proposition. The infOrma-
tion he wanted was all in issues of a weekly
newspaper. He wanted to know about the stocks
of goods carried by the merchants, to Judge of
their business capacity by the style and amount
of advertising they employed-the paper would
show him. lie wanted TO know something of
the social activities of the town, which the paper
would show him. lie wanted to know something
of the pursuits of the people in the town and
the condition of the surrounding country. The
paper would show him. He would scan those
papers carefully and would be able to give the
information as he had stated.
He would Judge the business prospects from
the advertising columns, of prospective selling
possibilities by the local happenings, of the
tastes and intelligence of the people by the read
ing matter the paper gives its readers and whe-
ther they were a progressive, alert or an easy
going and comparatively inactive sort. The To-
cal newspaper tells the story fully to the active,
observant business man, who never saw your
town or its people. If the town merchants are
not all represented in its columns il would spell
little business" bad knock for the town. If
the local columns showed a scarcity of news and
little of the social life il would spell in glaring
letters nothing doing" If there was a lack of
high-class, up-to-date reading matter on the
livest topics Of the times, IL would spell for him
-?
The investigation would end and the town
be passed over as not worth considering. So then
the weekly paper is for fifty-two times year
showing people who do not reside in the town
Just how TO Judge If il is a business and social
center.
