NOVEL TREATMENT OF HENS
One of the Little Touches That Is
Enough to Distinguish Frock From
Others of Its Kind.

Tt may be different sort of sleeve,
new cuff, an odd collar, or a mere
quirk at the neckline, but it's sufti,
cient to distinguish the whole frock
from all other frocks. Here it's new
idea for finishing a hem.
The zouave or pulled hem is partic
ularly graceful, incidentally in good
style at the present moment. But
there are several variations of the
zouave to distinguish it from last
years. One Of them is the use OF pan
els to break the monotony OF a cen
tinued puff. The panels may be back
and front or simply at each side; ana
loose ones are tremendously effective
with the trousers skirt.
Then there is another way of treat
ing the puff skirt, and that is to tack
the puff at intervals of perhaps an
eighth of yard. Each stack" is con:
cealed by q bright bead or two, ano
the general effect is realls striking
One particularly stunning model was
"done" in petunia velvet with huge cut
Jet beads for trimming. Another, al.
evening frock, is of white satin, puifec
and tucked with an iridescent pen
dant.

Building Concrete Ships.

Concrete ships will displace the
wooden-wallcd Norwegian barque, il
Is reported, the first Norwegian con-
crete ship having been launched at
the Porsgrund Cement Works, in the
presence of the prime minister, NJ
Knudsen. The ship is built on an en-
tirely new system, with the bottom
upwards, in which extraordinary posi-
ton the launching took place on a
sort of underlying sledge, which glided
out with the ship. When the water
was reached the hull became detached
from the sledge and gradually sank
up to a certain point, then subsequent
ly slowly righted itself. The ship.
which is of 200 tons burden, was built
in three weeks, but the next will only
require about half that time as the
original frame will be used for each
subsequent ship of the same size. The
casting of the ship, when the frame Is
completed will. this time take only two
days. lis intended to start the whole
sale building of iron and concrete
ships of 200, 500 and 1000 tons. A
1,0OO-ton ship will be completed in si1
weeks.

MARKEN ISLAND OLD STYLE
Ancient Manners Are Still Observed
and Historic Costumes Are Worn
by the Inhabitants.

Marker island is biz Of the old Hol-
land, an inlet lying in the Zuyder Zee
not far from Edam, Of cheese fame.
Holland is rapidly becoming modern
lied nowadays; the blue blcomer OF
the canal boatmen has gone the way
of the wooden shoe, well toward OBJ
livion, although the latter, it is sald,
is becoming increasingly popular with
the price of leather soaring, writes
Niksah. The Dutch are rapidly aban-
doning the old ways that endeared
them to the artists Of bygone genera
tons, so that any spot where the tradi-
tional customs are still preserved Is
worthy of note as a living museum Of
history.
Such q spot is Marker island, where
old manners are still followed and the
old costumes still worn. Separated by
only a narrow channel from the pro-
gressive mainland, it is none the less
fifty years behind the times. 1t seems
to be characteristic of small islands
that they progress much more slowly
than mainland whence their people
came. Thus in the Arran islands off
the coast of Ireland the old Irish
tongue is still spoken; in the Hebrides
men still live as they lived in the days
of Scott, and on Marker island the
men still go down to the fishing boats
in boomers and wooden shoes.
The dark blue bloomer is the mark
of the married man, while the single
men wear white-a somewhat Illogical
arrangement in view Of the facilities
for laundry work that married men
ought to have. The women wear the
old-time costumes and carry their
knitting about with them on the streets.
Every one of the houses is exceeding
ly small and almost unbelievably clean.
There are not more than 800 people all
told in this little colony of fishermen.
Marker is quaint and old-fashioned,
but it lacks the touch of self-uncon-
seriousness to make it perfect. In all
the little shops you can purchase pic
ture postal cards depicting scenes that
are quaint" and typical" And when
a region begins to realize that it is
picturesque 1t has taken the first step
on the road to the commonplace.

Odd Indian Foot Race,

A foot race among the Tarahumare
Indians is most picturesque scene,
especially after nightfall, when the
course Is lit up by flaming torches car
ried by the eager friends Of the run
ners, who steadily pursue their way.
the only silent people in the excited
crowd. How in this weird fitful light
the men contrive to keep the ball in
view is mystery. One would think
that so small an object would be lost
in the Pickering torchlight; but In
dams have wonderful eyes as we'll as
wonderful muscles, and somehow the
ball survives all perils and is there at
the finish.
In these races the runners receive no
prizes, but only honor and glory and
the admiration of the women, which
no doubt fully repays them. 1t is,
however, customary for those who win
wagers on the race to give some part
of their winnings to the men who have
won; but this is optional.

WHERE "PEP" WAS NEEDED
Secretary Daniels, Discussing Eff
cheney, Relates Story of Girls Ad-
vising Beau to Kiss Old Mare.

Secretary Of the Navy Daniels is a
firm believer in speeding up. Eff
cheney is the watchword of his depart
ment. A big navy can't be built fast
enough for him. And he was discuss
ing efficiency and high speed. He
wants to cut out red tape.
'Discussion is well and good" said
Secretary Daniels, 'but the main ques-
ton is whether it is idle talk or not.
Is it practical or is it foolish? Is it
like Torkins and his girl?
"Torkins, by the way, was out with
his girl during the days before the au-
tomobile, when young man who
wanted to be popular would call on
his girl with horse and buggy to take
her for drive. You know, the faster
the horse the better the impression.
"Torkins, on his first call, took the
girl for long drive, and when they
found themselves in the midst of a
country road, he ventured for kiss.

COLLARS BOTH HIGH AND LOW
Many Shapes and Materials Are Used
for These Accessories and One
May Take Her Choice.

Anyone who wants high collars may
have them. The designers have seem
to that; but where there is one high
collar there are hundred low models.
Such delightful low collars, too!
The roll collar, with deep points in
front, is a favorite and newer than
any Of the many versions Of the sailor
shape, says writer in the New YORK.
Evening Sun. 1t is more becoming
and suitable for anyone save the young
things, too. No woman past her early
twenties ought to wear a sailor col
lar, though many grandmother does,
The popularity of square-cut blouse
and frock necks has brought out a
host of dainty collars in satin, geor-
gette, organdie, muslin, what you will,
shaped for wearing with these square
necks, rolling at the back and down
the sides, but leaving the neck line
across the front uncollared. Some
times little tucker or chemisette to
match the collar is provided.

10Y FOR THE MEN AT TEA
some Good Samaritan Has Invented
Oval Saucer That Safely Holds
Cup and Dainties.

ANY man who knows that, sooner or
later, he must go to another afternoon
tea cannot but rejoice at the recent in
vention of an oval, -platterlike saucer,
large enough to hold with ease cup,
a lettuce or other sandwich, and a
dainty trine of pastry. The thing was
needed, the modesfy of the anonymous
inventor-evidently not Mr.. Edison
reveals him one of the large body OF
occasional and unwilling tea-goers.

all strangely alike at these functions

possesses and enjoys the charming
scene, the friends, the guests, the fam.
lily of the king. They are there for
delightful rest, or for delightful exer.
else. They have come from the battle
field, or the council, or the journey to
walk, to recline, to converse to listen,
where all is beautiful with large,
ordered, stately beauty. And all this
is taken up by the Lord Jesus, in his
use Of the word Paradise, to set forth
one side Of the believers unseen life
after death. After the mann. In
which spirits enjoy and spirits see, the
departed Christian walks by sight (Cf.
II Cor. 5:6 y, in a scene Of glorious
and restful beauty-in the garden OF
his King"
, Into the Kings gardens the robber
would enter that very day.
Words Full ef Comfort.
How full of comfort are the words
of the text to all believers who, like
the thief, shall be saved by grace! We,
too, enter into the Kings gardens, and
better still, the Kings presence, on
the very day Of our death. "To de-
part" is 'to be with Christ" (Phil.
1929. AS one has put 1T, only line,
not space, separates between US and
him. To be "absent from the body"
is to be "at home with the Lord" On
Cor. IS r. W.
Moreover, Paul says that to be with
Christ is "far better" (Phil. l :23).
How conclusively this shows that no
did not expect to enter upon q state
of Inconsistencies at death. For him
to live was Christ, and he was happy
in the Lords service. How blessed
must be that life upon which he ex.
pected to enter at death, when he could
speak of it as "gain" and as star bet.
ter"
Then, notice again that expression,
"at home with the Lord" All the
love, and comfort, and ease implied in
being "at home" will be fulfilled and
even transcribed in the Fathers house.
We need not fear to trust ourselves or
our departed to him.
We believe the location of Paradise
has changed since the Old Testament
times. The saints of that day spoke
of going "down" to Sheol, the under
world of the dead, of which Paradise
was part. But Paul speaks Of being
-acaught up" to the third heaven, to
Paradise CI Cor. 1872, A.. 1t is likely
that when Christ assembled he emptied
Sheol Of the saints there, the 'sprison-
ers of hope" Ephesians 4 g (margin)
tells us that when he assembled up on
high he led captive multitude Of cap
tives. So the saint today enters into
an even brighter Paradise on high,
than that which the thief inherited.
How we should comfort ourselves
with these words! A minister tells
how he grieved for his dead child and
would not be comforted. He would
visit the grave and thrust his walking
stick into the sandy soil until 1t
touched the little casket, but his heart
grew more and more sad. One day he
began saying to himself: "With Christ
In Paradise" "With Christ in Para
disc" He soon came to see he could
ask for nothing more blessed for his
darling, and so he found peace.
My knowledge of that life is small,
The eye of faith is dim;
But this know, that Christ knows all
And I shall be with Him.
