LittIe Thinos Cause Sunshine.

Be Kind Always.

One great trouble with unkind thoughts is that it is SO very difficult to keep them only thoughts; sooner or later they find utterance. We may fancy that we are keeping our un- charitable opinions to ourselves, but they are almost certain to express themselves in look or tone, if not in word. The only way to be really kind is to be kind clear through. h.-Exchanse.

Al-Mntar or the watchtower, stin exists to the east of the town of Gaza. It is where Samson is said to have car rled the gates of the city. On the road from Gaza to Jaifa are ancient olive trees, many of them more than one thousand years old. with gnarled bark and Immense trunks. There is an old legend which credits Gaza with the in- vention of the first mechanical clocks. These were perhaps the sand clocks which are still used in some mosques.

SASH KEEPS ITS POPULARITY
Far From Passing, Il 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 a 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, 1t 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 strip
of satin at top and bottom, so that it
has the appearance of insertion when
used as trimming. Now and then one
finds a 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.

A Soldier of the Land

His skin was the color of his 0. d.
blouse,
His hair was kinky and black;
He came from the land of sunshine and
cotton,
His home was uncovered shack.
He heard the call of the flag that he
loved,
And he marched away like king;
If we but knew half of the things that
he did,
This land with his praises would ring
In the midst of the fray at Argonne he
fell,
And died like a true Yankee son;
With smile on his face and joy in his
heart,
And a knowledge of duty we'll DONE
His skin was the color of his o. D.
blouse,
But his hair had turned to gray,
For he gone thru hell for humanity s
sake,
Before they laid him away.

BL0USES IN WIDE VARIETY
Wash Fabrics Figure Prominently
Among Materials EmpIoyed-Pend-
ant Decorations Highly Favored.

The shops are really alluring in their
display of warehouses in fabrics and
styles suitable for summer wear. 1t
is perhaps an interesting thing that
wash fabrics have been made to serve
SO admirably for these blouses-for
there was time when it seemed that
only chiffon and georgette and soft
crepe would do for them.
But now linen, organdie, batiste, "a
tine-lots of ratine, too, which is an
other of those interesting evidences
of a return to favor of fabric or style
that has seemingly gone by-all these
and other summer fabrics, heavy,
homespun, misunderstanding things, are
used for the overblOuse.
One thing that marks many Of the
blOuses is little tassels and hanging
buttons and fringe. There are all sorts
of these pendant decorations, from
sleeve ends and hens and just hang
ing down from any other part of the
blouse itself.

of the upright pieces small brass balls

this purpose can be obtained from any

The pieces of bamboo that are fas-

STRAIGHT LINES HOLD SWAY
Good Thing to Remember Now That

must bear in mind the fact that re-

with narrow shoulders and long, tight
sleeves. Suit skirts are shorter than
those shown with spring models, and
while by no means full they are
trifie wider. Soft velours are very
popular and great deal of fur trim
ming will be used. This fur trim
ming is usually only in the form OF
generous sized collars and revers and
sometimes cuffs. Trimmed skirts or
the elaborate fur peplums used on
suit coats last season are not in evil
dence so far. Embroidery and fanci-
full braidings appear on many smart
suits.
For first fall wear strictly tailored
models of cheviot and smart wool mix
lures are being brought out.

SMALL GIRL NOT FORGOTTEN

inQ and Practical.

Frocks for the small girl are both
are attractively combined with plain
one-tone material, or have collars, cuffs
and chemisettes of sheer white mate
rails. Plain pink, blue, green, yellow or
lavender chambrays are also made
dainty and becoming by collar and cum
sets of white organdie, dimty batiste
or linen lawn.
One Chicago house which makes a
speciality of children's clothes shows
numbers of quantity charming frocks
made from imported dimlties, cham
brays and swisses.
Two of the models in an exhibit were
made Of chambray, one being in clear
apple-green tone. There is a plain
short-waisted bodice belted with two
inch band piped with black. The belt
is embroidered with colored posies and
green leaves. The sleeves and neck are
piped with black. Another frock is of
pale-pink chambray, with the sheerest
of scalloped white collars and cuffs.
The frock also has a short-walsted bod
ice and very full skirt Is attached to
the plain little bodice, the joining line
being defined by piping of color. EN-
broidered pOsies, uneven In height, rise
from the piping and embroidered lines
to about One-third the bodice length.
The skirt is also trimmed with EN-
broidered lines.
