BIRTHDAY OF
 THE CzARINA

''The Little White Mother of Rus sia, as the Czarina is lovingly called by her subjects, will pass her forty fourth milestone to-day, having been born on June 6, 1872, the daughter of Grand Duke Ludwig W, of Hesse- The Empress is a granddaughter of Queen Victoria, her mother having been the Princess Alice Maud Mary, second daughter of England's sover- eign queen. One of her sisters is the wife of Prince Henry of Prussia, the Kaiser's brother; another the wife of Prince Louis of Battenberg, for
 mer sea lord of the British fleet, and her third surviving sister is the widow of Grand Duke Sergius of Russia, who was assa assinated in 1905. The Cza- rina's only brother is Grand Duke Err nest Louis of Hesse, now the enemy of her adopted country. The war has had the strange result of restoring to health and comparative happiness the woman who was formerly called the
 most pathetic royal figure in the world" Constant dread of the assas-
 sination of her husband or children so preyed upon the Czarina's mind that she was almost a physical and | mental wreck two years ago. Then came the war, the nihilists and revo1u- tionists became patriots, and, with the
 menace of death removed and the 1OE oSSAuA SET
 vice to Russia's stricken soldiers, the Czarina gained physical and mental health almost overnight. The mel ancholia with which she was long af- hicted and which her physicians fear ed might end in insanity, is said to have been completely cured. As a
 war nurse the C'zarina has found in
 ministering to others a, balm for her
 own aching heart and fearful mind.
 With the Russian Empress war nurs- i ing is not a fad nor an incident of her existence. She has hospital of her i own at Tsarskoe Se1o, near the inn peria1 summer palace, and there she l is in daily attendance with her daugh- | ters at the bedsides of the wounded and suffering, garbed in. the simple uniform of nurse, with nothing about her to indicate her standing.
 Her two elder daughters, the Grand IDuchesses Olga and Tatiana, have also entered heartily into the work which has so engrossed their mother, and both have graduated from nursing
 schools, taking examinations like the other nurses. The Czarina and he1 daughters spend at least five hours daily at the hospital, and often they remain much longer. On several oc- casions the Czarina has not only work ed all day, but has remained all night The wounded men worship her, and
 many have declared that they have beer cured by the touch of her fin ifiers.

BOOK-MAKING COST
 INCREASED BY WAR

Some illuminating statements re- garding the far-reachinge effect of the war on the demand for certain staples are made by one of the great mail order firms, regarding some books.
 Before the war began the making of India paper was restricted to a few European mills, because the paper had been used mainly for Bibles and for little else. The whole available supply was bought up and efforts made to secure manufacture on a. large scale.
 The most costly attempts were made to develop the industry in this country. Success had just been attain ed when the war broke out. ImpOr- tation of the basic stock, made of a, com binatiOn of linen and flax, was vir- tually suspended through war embar- goes. Foreign governments had found another use for the stock than India paper in the making of gunpowder and gun cotton.
 Attempts to find a substitute here were almost defeated by the powder factUrers who had practically se- cured a monopoly of all the linen and cotton rags in the United States. Only by the most ingenious meth Ods was the emergency bridged over and con | tinued manufacture made possible. By l now, however, India paper making has become an integral part of our 1 economic life.
 The advance in leather. prices may be traced even more directly to the | soldier than that in the case of paper. | Formerly book feathers, both sheep 1 and goat, were imported largely through England. This importation has stopped:
 Fully 29.OOO,O0O men, it is estfma- ted, have had to be supplied since the war began with army boots and shoes which are short lived The men lin the, front line trenches require a complete resupply every three weeks, and it has been necessary every Zl
 days to reshoe the men who hold the whole 2,00O-mile front which all but encfrc1es the Central Powers.
 Moreover. several million horses Ihave required new equipage, which also has been very short lived. | What relief America might have found through importing leather di- rect from the Levant and Australasia I instead of through England has been | prevented, by lack of transportation. I Seal leather, too, has ceased to be imported. The Russian vessels which formerly found a rich catch off Arch angel have been commandeered and converted into ice breakers. The Eng fish boats which fished- off NevFfound-
 land have been communicated to sweep mines in the Channel
 These changed conditions may work for the benefit of the United States
 tanning trade as a whole.

THE WISDOM OF GRADUATES.

There is a tendency to laugh at the essays delivered at school and college Commencements, on account of the easy and offhand way in which they attempt to solve all problems that perplex the world. Yet these essays contain a lot of truth which the world might well take note of.
 The graduates during their study have been under the influence of bright and resourcefu1 teachers, who a class are keen1y intellectual peo- pie of high ideals. Also in their study of poetry and philosophy. they have come in contact with the great thinkers of all ages. Compositions may not be original, but they reflect all this wisdom that has come from these sources.
 So, while these essays are to a large extent borrowed thought, they represent in a way the best thought of the world applied to the ills o1 daily life. If the essays seem i'm practicable and dreamy, the trouble may not be with the ideas expressed but with the stupidity and rfol1oy ot human nature, which refuses to lis ten to what the thinkers are saying.

 The fai1le will have to be laid in open width on the cutting table, though two widths may be with right or reverse sides facing. Along the upper row the back skirt section and the front back and sleeve are placed skirt section, the capes and the sleeve band. Of course, if white taffeta is used for the smaller cape, it is ar arranged on the silk just as shown in the cutting guide. Unless this is done the cape will not have good lines nor will it fall gracefully about the neck
 If the high collar is used, it should be laid on 8 lengthwise fold of silk, while the strap and stay with edge having one ''T'' perforation is placed on a 1engthwise or crosswise fold.
 LAsee of all kinds is profusely used on afternoon and evening coats, but the heavier laces are given the preference Taffeta is employed for the develop ment of several good-looking loose coats especially designed to wear over fra giIe fitting bodices giving a slender effect. Full short skirts and extremely short waists predominate in dressy coats. All models, however, are created with the idea of conserving youthful lines
