IN SPORTS SUITS
SASH KEEPS ITS POPULARITY
Far From Passing, 1t Bids Fair to Be-
come Even More Important Ar
ticle of Dress.

We keep hearing the rumor that the
vest is passe-certainly it is passing, if
we judge by the signs of the times,
and unless it has revival will not be
here at all by fall. The sash, how
ever, has taken on new lease of life
and is to play an even more important
part in our costume than ever before.
AS to fringe, it is to be more extensive
ly used than ever-in every depth and
wherever possible. The fringe band
ing is often seen trimming satin capes,
coats of camels' hair and dresses of
taffetas and satin. This banding is
made by stitching the fringe on a strip
of satin at top and bottom, so that it
has the appearance of insertion when
used as trimming. Now and then one
finds color different from the dress
or cloak showing through the threads,
but this is not nearly so often used
as the palmer colored banding in blue
or black.

Rise Step by Step,

It's the mastery of every step in
the upward way that spells greatness
and leads to power. It's common
enough TO find young fellows dreaming
of the day when they will sit in the
office chair and direct great enter
prises. The dream of greatness is all
right. but it must be backed up with
considerable experience and knowl-
edge before you can draw checks on
it. Dream of big things all you can
when you have the pep to push them
to realization. The best way is to
prove each dream as you have it. The
only sure way is to rise by building
firmly each step of foundation as you
go The big things then come natu-
rally and you are ready to meet them.

Honor Noted Missionary.

Among the relics preserved on the
island of Tahiti is the burial place of
Rev. Henry Mott, one of the first, and
considered the greatest, of the mission
aries who went to the South Seas in
the early days. The mission sent out
from England to Tahiti in 1896 was
the first undertaken by the London
Missionary society after its formation.
Henry Mott was of this company who
landed from the ship Duff, commanded
by Capt. James Wilson, at Matavai
bay, Tahiti, in 1897. From that time
until his death in 1874 he labored with
out ceasing in the island. 1t was he
who first translated the Scriptures, di-
rectly from the original Hebrew and
Greek texts, into the Tahitian Ian,
guage.

Power of Imauination,

A doctor, treating an old woman
for typhoid fever, took her tempera-
ture on each visit by putting a
thermometer under her tongue. One
day. when she was nearly well, the
doctor did not take her temperature.
He had scarcely got 100 yards
from the house when her son called
him back. Mother is worse" said
the young man. Come back at once ~
The doctor returned. AS he went into
the sick room the old woman looked
M at him reproachfully. Doctor" she
said, "why didn't you give me that

Fifteen minutes sufficed to gather
together all my belongings and
change from blue into gray. and, as l
emerged from quarters, the officers
of the garrison flocked about me with
words of cOngratulatiOn and innu-
merable questions. Universal envy of
my good fortune was evident, but this
assumed no unpleasant form, although
much was said to express their be-
lief in my early return.

Small strings of beads are worn on
every occasion.
Deep yoke effects will be seen in the
new fur coats.
The hem of the smart frock is by no
means regular.
Light frocks are scattered with gay
cotton flowers.
Bold striped goods will be much used
for trimmings.
Many of the new sleeves end just

TWO FANCIES IN MILLINERY
Leqhorn Hat, Ever Popular, and That

Crepe or Silk Wolfe.

The Leghorn hat is favorite for
summer. A quaint, old-fashioned
suggestion is given to many of these
hats by the use of flower wreaths or
garlands and long streamers hang at
side and drawn about the throat. This
touch, especially if black ribbon is
used, is usually very becoming.
One of the millinery fancies of the
season is the hat made of large-fgured

dispensabIe.

It is established that our most de-
lightful fashions come from Paris, and
it is becoming equally well established
that our sport apparel is English in cut
and fabric. We come to speak of the
English walking hat, meaning the rath-
er clOse-fitting hat with a tall crown
curling up at the sides. English tweedS
and f1annels are part of every sports
wOman's vernacular, as suits of these
materials are of her wardrobe. We
differentiate between the onlookers and
the real adherents, and recognize the
rights of the latter to be as plainly and
unbecomingly dressed as the most rig
orous exercise demands.
During the last year of the war the
knitted sport suits made by hand ap-
peared, first in Switzerland at st. Nor
itz and such places where winter sports
abound. They were instantly accept
ed and were a boon to French and
| Swiss makers also, who could thus en-
| ploy remuneratively their long winter
| evenings heretofore given over to lace
making or the fine embroideries, the
| demand for which was interrupted by
war. Now the knitted suit is indis-
| pensable. The great vogue over here
for tricolette and jersey cloth has fur
ther stimulated this demand.
The wool jerseys are ideal, for they
do not rumple or crush and come in
such splendid colors that every taste
may be gratifed. Hunters green is a
favored color for some reason-it al
ways looks well and does not always
fade as do other brilliant and decided
shades. Nothing is more picturesque
than the fashion of topping white
skirts with jersey coats of the most
brilliant tones maginable-green, vel
low, and scarlet seemingly preferred
| Undeniably they make gay color
splotches on the landscape and add to
the summer picture.
Less serviceable than the wool jer.
seys are coats of fine faille and silk
poplin. They are as delicate and re-
fined as the most conservative woman
could ask, and come in such pretty, soft
colors as French blue and pale rose
The coat usually has rather wide

wild spirits of that neighborhood, and
stories of fierce drinking bouts and
mad gambling were current in st.

"Have you ever been at Beaucaire,
captain?" 1 asked.
I'VE always stop at the landing, but
have only once been up the cliff to
where the house stands. The judge
was away from home-in st. Louis, l

He paused reminiscently, his eyes on

of strange things about that family

at last. You see he has known them
for years, and attended to most OF
Beaucaire's legal business. This is
about how the story runs, as he told it
