The Seasons

THE winds that sigh in the forest,
L The leaves that drift to the
ground,
The leeting clouds and the moon
beams
That cast their halo around
Bespeak the coming of Winter,
His hoary head in the blast,
His blanket of white about him
And his breath that chills so fast.
The changing eason are coming
And going and coming again,
The autumn, winter and summer,
Then spring with its April rain.
The seasons are passing ever,
Today as in olden time,
And always leaving a message
Both simple and sublime.
And, each for the other preparing,
They come and 60 as of yore,
And swiftly the springtime passes
For the rich as well as the poor.
The summer time comes upon you,
A season of greatest toll,
The earth and the air combining
To bring a reward from the soil;
The leisurely days of autumn,
With the harvest all complete,
The children, laughing and sing
ing
A music joyful and sweet.
And at last the winter, approach
ing,
Will bring a pause and a rest,
For the soul of the toiler wearies,
And the seasons bring what is
best.

iHE ULU ART OF
BUYING LINENS
How to Tell Quality by the
Weave, the Bleaching and the
Roundness of the Threads.
Doilies Come Now by the Yard.

"HE primary thing to remember
in buying linen is the primary
thing to remember in buying
anything. II the article is cheap
and marked down because quality is
not good the purchase is worth less
than nothing. 1t always pays to buy
good linen, particularly If a woman
contemplates the time and trouble of
putting embroidery upon it. Excellent
embroidery. hemstitching, ETC., cannot
be done Upon poor material, for the
better the goods the better the design
and durability of the handiwork.
When the linen threads are strong and
round the stitching will be clear and
well defined; when the threads are
weak, angular and uneven the stitch
ing cannot be artistic or permanent
The quality of linen, like most wool
fabrics, depends upon the way it Is pre-
pared. The process of bleaching flax
by chemicals is much cheaper and
quicker than that by exposure to the
air. But the fibers are weakened by
such bleaching. The grass bleaching
is superior, inasmueh as it does not
impair the fbers. 1t is also more ex-
pensive because 1t takes more time and
requires more care. Yet the difference
between the two is not more than a
cent or so for the embroidery linens.
This is the way in which you may
distinguish between the two qualities:
A microscopic examination shows that
the needle cutting through the chemi-
cally bleached goods leaves broken
and ragged threads. A puncture of
the needle in the grass bleached linen
shows that the threads are simply
separated by the passage. In one
case the threads are bent, in the other
broken. The fiber of the chemically
prepared is uneven, brittle and in
ferior. The fiber of the grass bleached
is practically unimpaired, so that
when the needle is withdrawn and
the cloth rubbed and pulled the ma
terial is as good as eve
Doilies by the yard are the latest
arrivals on the market. A woven
cretonne of pretty design has a pretty
pattern made in three large ovals.
These are closely fitted and are con
fusing until it is understood that they
are to be cut out like paper dolls.
Out of a yard of this material you can
get a large centerpiece, foul plate
doilies and six tumbler doilies. The
cut-outs must, of course, be finished
neatly around the edge with fine white
or colored braid or erocheted edges. =
A simple crocheted edge is a fill
mesh made by a double crocl
stitch, then two chains. and insert
the point cr
through the turned back sc of the
dolly. When tie dolly has been sur
rounded once. make a second row in
the same way. Let tie double crochet
stitches fall on the last ones. This
makes a sort Of ladder. Tie third
row is made by ma.iAg Il single
crochet in the first double crochet OF
the last row, chain two. a double
crochet in the last double crochet al
chain five, catching in the last CouAie
crochet made. chain two and s.Hge
crochet in next double stitch again.

Roman New Year Like
Our Own

THE Romans dedicated the first day
of the years first month and the
whole ensuing month to the god
Janus, from whom it derives its name
of January and whom they represent
ed as a man with two faces, one look
ing backward, the other forward. i'm
plying that he stood between the old
and the new year with a regard to
both. Throughout January they offer
ed sacrifices to Janus upon twelve al
tars, and on the first day of that month
were careful to so regulate their con
duct that their every word and act
should be a happy augury for all the
ensuing days of the year.
Ovid and other Latin writer's of that
age allude to the suspension of all liti-
cation and strife, the reconciliation Of
differences between friends, the smok-
ing affairs and the white robed process
sions to the capitol upon the first day
of Janus OF New Years day, as we
now call it. They also tell of the ex-
changing of visits, the giving and re-
ceiving OF presents or ''strenae," the
masquerading and the feasting with
which in their time the day was cele-
brated throughout the Roman empire.
The modern gentleman who puts on
his swallow tailed coat and his white
necktie today and saliies forth to visit
his lady friends will be surprised to
learn that the Roman dandy. arrayed
in a new shirt and toga. went out upon
precisely the same erTand more than
1000 years ago.
From the very birth of Christianity
the partiC ,atiOn by Christians in the
festival observance of New Years day
was vigorously opposed until, about the
fifth century. the 25th Of December
had gradually become a fixed festival
commemorative of our Lords nativity.
%whereupon the LIST of January also as
sumed a specially sacred character as
the octave of Christmas day. AS such
it still holds a place in the calendars
Of the various branches of ths eastern
and western church, but only az 3
feast of subordinate Importance.

LII Japanese merchants distribute
"a colored prints to their patrons
~ at the beginning of the year.
The characters inscribed on the
left of the print are the name of the
merchant. his street address and the
nature of his business. The picture
generally Is intended TO express good
wishes for the patron and a hope of
prosperity for the proprietor. In car
rying out this purpose an elaborate
symbolism is used.
The stork Gin Japan is supposed to
live 1000 years. the turtle 10000 years.
Hence they both express a wish for
long life. The pine tree is always
green, therefore it is a symbol of eter-
nal good fortune. The fan is the SYM
Dol of increasing good fortune-as time
passes good fortune increases as a fan
opens out. The plum tree blossoms In
winter and is extremely fragrant. 1t
has a very prominent place in Japa-
nese life. There are seven gods Of
good fortune. These are always used
in New Year greeting cards. These
seven gods correspond to Billiken in
this country, and recently Billiken him
self has been popular in Japan.
The prints have Two purposes. They
convey good wishes to the patron and
they advertise the merchant.
One especially artistic print given
out by a dealer in household utensils
contains a picture of a mounted war
rior trying to cross a turbulent river.
The significance is that if you strive
and persist in life you will in the end
achieve fame. The characters in the
panel are an ode to this effect.
A Kobe liquor dealer gave out a pic
ture showing Ebisu, god of wealth, in
a very happy mood. He is going fish
ing, and among the many bass one
large red one ttaD leaps up before him.
which causes him great joy, as his face
will show.
From a Kobe dealer in rice cakes
anne a card showing an attendant pre-
pairing a tai (red sea bass) for the cele-
bration. The legend hanging on the
plum tree in the picture is an invita-
ton to all patrons to come and taste
their special rice cakes. At New Years
it is customary to play battledore, and
a lady is see ready for a game-New
York Sun.

Out of the heart of the winter time

WHAT ! HAVE WRITTEN.
IS TO Be READ, PROF.
SCOTT NEARING STATES

NEW YORK. Sept. 20.-Prof Scott
Nearing. whose home in Toledo was
raided by federal agents, who seized
papers and documents found there,
issued statement here in which he
declared anything he ever has said
or written on the subject of the war
is open to inspection at any time.
when I had anything to say" he
asserted, Il have always said it in the
open. If any proof of the morbid,
nervous sensitiveness of the authori-
ties were needed it is supplied by
such an invasion of the premises Of
a private citizen by the agents of the
government. When the reaction
against such wanton acts comes it
will be swift and sure"
Prof. Nearing said he had written
the department Of justice asking that
his papers be disarranged as little as
possible. because he had spent years
in collecting the data on various eco
nomic and sociological problems and
getting it into useful shape.
