La euayra Not Beautiful.

La Guayra is the gateway of Ven
ezuela. Through this little port passes
everything, from cowhides shipped to
New York to diplomats bound for Car
acas. La Guayra is the warden of
the shipping, the connecting link be-
tween the capital and the world.
Since La Guayra's principal excuse
for existence is found in the ships that
come and go, it is altogether fitting
and proper that the life and architec-
ture OF the town should center on the
water front. At its widest the city is
only a few blocks wide and it is built
on the sloping beach in a long curve
that fronts throughout its length on
the busy wharves. The impression
given is that of some great outdoor
theater, engrossed in the dolngs be-

PLEA FOR TAILORED SUIT

lar Become the American Woman
Very Well.

The top coat will be in its glory this
season. That much is settled over
here. The One-piece frOck, therefore,
will triumph Over the tailored suit, as
far as numbers go. The American
woman, however, is peculiarly fitted
to wear the tailored suit, and if she
gives it up she will make a serious
mistake. The lack of men workers in
France and the garment makers here
produced a comparative dearth of
plain coats and skirts.
The suits that have been brought
over, however, are excessively good
looking. If a woman wears one with
brilliancy she will look like a mini
allure of one of her ancestors.
Collars are high and rolling. Revers
are large and important. The body
part is slim, such as a dandy would
like, and the full peplum falls in vari-
GUS convolutions over the hips.
There is room enough, however, for
several kinds of costumes in the aver
age Americans wardrobe. The one
piece frock is a necessity, if one leads
any ann of social life. The top
Goa is lavishly trimmed this year,
when it is used for ceremonial occa-
siOns, and in satin, heavily soutached,
it has reached the apex of fashion.

TRIMMED WITH FUR

tailored suits in Worth's show rooms,
This dressmaker remains true to the
traditions Of his house. Nothing &C.
centric or merely sensational finds a
place in the Maison Worth, but every
thing is in the most perfect taste.
Worth is making all his new winter
coats quite long, that is to say, knee
length. And these coats are accom-
panied by plated skirts which almost
reach the ankle. The result is admir-
able. He showed me a lovely Louis
XIV coat which had just been created
for an English duchess.
1t was made of raven's-wing-blue
faced cloth and trimmed with bands of
sable; there were large cut jet but
tons which had tiny diamond centers,
and the coat was lined with pompu-
dour brocade which showed dull blue
flowers on a dark purple ground.

possibly be twisted into a "bustle.'

Dor is only beginning. The long con
crete dixie runs out to sea for 1000
feet, rising half a dozen yards above
the waves that beat its sides, turning
what was one of the most dangerous
of anchorages into one of the safest.
The little city itself is neither beau
tful nor particularly pleasant to live
in. The streets are narrow, the houses
mean, except for a few ON the princi-
pal business street. The heat is al
ways intense and the well-to-do in La
Guayra generally live in one of the
cooler seaside hamlets up or down the
coast. The picturesque peak of Pic
acho towering back of the town is
largely responsible for the heat, for
besides decorating the landscape, the
mountain acts as a reflector for the
sunlight.
Wherever you go in Guayra your
road is pretty sure to lead back to the
wharves. Almost always there is a
ship there, loading or unloading, the
swarthy porters hustling the bales of
hides, the bags of coffee and cacao,
with a stolid Indifference to the heat
that almost knocks the idle onlooker
down.

British Museum,

In the early years of the British
museum, whose treasures have been
locked up from the general public till
after the war, the days of opening
were fewer than now. Three days a
week were considered enough. Econ
omy ruled then also. No generous
grant of public money aided the foun-
dalton of the museum. A public lot
terry provided the sinews of war. By
this means $4,000 was raised, 100000
of which went to Sir Hans Sloane's
executors, 100000 to the earl and coun-
tess of Oxford for the Haleian manu-
scripts and 100000 to Lord Halifax
for Montague House. When the PAN
t%echnicons paid for by the proceeds of
the lottery had done their duty in the
removal of the curiosities, Montague
House was thrown open with great
ceremony on January Is, 1759.-Lon-

FAV0RITE ROSES
BY ELIZABETH VAN BENTHuYsEN

BY ELIZABETH VAN BENTHUYSEN.
There is absolutely nothing in the
realm of esthetic culture that is so
thoroughly dominated by personal ia
vor as the selection of q pet rose.
Every lover of the garden and of the
home beautiful selects a favorite rose
almost as soon as the interest of flower
culture is born.
l have been much interested in the
seasons favorites and the reasOns
given by rose enthusiasts for their
likes and dislikes. They offer to the
student and the culturist valuable
hints In the care and selection of any
favorite, because what one may find as
an argument for his pet blossom may
be equally true in any number Of cases
and many of my readers may be able
readily to meet the claims advanced by
others and find equal merit for their
own selections.
The delicate formation, coloring and
perfume of the rose all combine to
make its study especially worth while.
Intelligent choice of a favorite often
marks the fower-lover as gifted-and

Apropos Of felt hats, 1 must record
the fact that "cut felt" hats are an
absolute rage in Paris and also at
Biarritz, writes a correspondent from
the latter place. These hats are "cut
everywhere" The border of the brim
Is cut and left without binding; the
only trimming consists of a band and
fiat bow of felt with "cut" edges.
These hats are charming in all the
soft neutral tints; pale beige, silver
gray, gray-blue and so on. Dlrectoire
shapes are being revived, and while
crowns get higher and higher, very
narrow brims are all the fashion.
Nearly all the new sailor shapes in
felt have soft crowns which are clever
ly manipulated to give the impression
of a double band around the crown.
In some cases wide bands of black
or dark blue ribbon are introduced,

distrust her own ability to make him
happy, and, therefore, ordinary rules
did not apply.
So Bryan Wylie went away disconso-
late, and Huldah returned to a daily
dreary grind of her monotonous life,
thinking only of duty. Within a year
both her uncle and aunt died. Their
estate was trivial. When it was all
over, the family lawyer handed HUI

THE BIGGEST GERMAN TREE

The German empire has produced
many things that have held records
for magnitude but none of them hold
more interest han the empires big
gest tree. 1t is n huge linden located
on the outskirts of the village of Stat
felstein, in Bavaria. The folklore and
history of the region say that the tree
is five hundred years old.
The authorities have filled the hol-
low interior with cement to strengthen
and preserve the landmark. 1t is 80
feet in circumference.
During the Napoleonic invasion of
Germany 1t is related that the French
Marshal Berthier rode his horse into
the hollow of the tree and turned the
animal around there.

The chic of the Parisienne is pro-

Chic means, according to the best

is not superficial. For instance, the
enthusiasts are now experimenting
with the Gruss aus Teplitz, a love-

Huldah Brill.
"But maybe you love-like me a lit
tic, Huldah?" flustered honest Bryan
Wylie anxiously.
He was so dead in earnest that a
sharp pang struck the heart of the
girl. At that moment, had he pressed
his suit, so appealing and eloquent
was his n and expression, he
would have won. Resolutely, however,
she turned from the temptation.
Hers had been a hard, practical ex-
perience. Young as she was, Huldah
had seen only the seamy side of life.
Her uncle and aunt, with whom she
lived, had led a sordid, loveless ex-
istence. Their system, the atmosphere
about them had stifed and chilled the
ingenious instincts latent in the soul
nature of their adopted charge.
So, when Bryan Wylie continued to
show her attentions, and, in his we'll
meaning and laundering way, spoke of
an engagement, Huldah closed her
heart stubbornly to sentiment. She
felt that her experience had made her
not like other girls. She recognized
fidelity, sterling worth in this sincere
sutton just on the threshold of a bust
ness career. If he made no progress
she would be q burden. If he scored a
success, there were brighter, prettier
girls who would fifty adorn the social
circle in which he would move.

that he was q disappointed man and
