This ordinarily pleasing young per
son Is shown in costume that rather
startled all beholders. There have
been many military fashions, but not
one Of them ever came near this for
militaristic appearance. This feminine
piece Of apparel Is patterned In many
ways after the uniform. The coat is
more full, and the collar has long
points, which are practically the only
differences. Swinging from the shout.
ders Is a military cape that adds to the
style OF the costume. The skirt Is
1dght-fltting, SO tight that when the
|wearer walks, It greatly resembles
trousers. The hat Is built on Royal
dying corps lines. The outfit is ex.
kremely natty, and will make a soldier
sirl Of any wearer.

NOT so EASY TO Be BAD
One Who Triss II May Come 70 Al.
tach New Meaning TO Biblical
Injunction.

It. 10 q popular fallacy that It II
much easier to be bad than good. So
firmly rooted is this error That It IL
universally accepted. II. valiay writes
In Judge. H, \. 4.
Yet tits very easy to demo citrate the
absurdity Of 1t. Imagine yt3 self, for
moment, having decided 70 be as bad
as possible. Throw of all Thought Of
convention Of law, Of calS.g for the
opinions Of others and Of needing the
still, small voice within you.
Here you are then, ready to be bad
Not inst ordinarily, pretty bad-but
bad to the nth degree.
What shall you do? Murder? That's
silly, for there is none you hate enough
and II there was the fear Of eventual
" sitting In a chair not upholstered
for comfort but for speedy demise
would deter you from murder. 81
Rob a bank? However delightful
the prospect. you can't tear open iron
bars with your bare hands nor dig
through granite with your fingernails
Elope with your neghbor's wife,
That Is the most ridiculous Of all, fol-
ycV know your neighbor and that re
moves any wish to endure, even for
moment, what he suffers indefinitely.
So you stand, and mentally 80
through the whole category Of badness
without finding single thing you can
do without much more trouble than
you could perform some good deed.
The worst you can picture yourself do.
4 ing Chat is feasible) IL such a com.
mon peccadillo that you must despise
It for its very littleness.
So You see the difficulty OF being
just little bad-the utter impossible,
ity Of being really bad.
Then the Biblical injunction comes
to you with an entirely new meaning:
The way Of the transgressor Is hard"

are not as essential to the captain a.
