RUBY IS JULY BIRTHSTONE
Gem Has Beer Associated Through the
Centuries With Some Remarkably
Quaint Superstitions.

The ruby is the birthstone of July.
1t was associated in ancient times with
many queer superstltons. How these
old fancies originated or how they
could have been palmed off on the pub
lie 1t is difficult to imagine. The fact
that the common people had implicit
faith In them proves how very much
more credulous the world once was
than 1t is today
For instance, the ancients believed
that if a ruby were worn about the
neck 1t conferred the power of seeing
in the dark One wonders what monu-
mental faker started this absurd con
ceit and for what purpose 1t was gen.
orally believed however, possibly be-
cause rubies were costly and the COM
mon people could not test the matter
for themselves.
The ruby also was supposed to be a
tHlismon against evil spirits the
plague and poison BY the deepening
of it's color it forewarned its wparer
against impending misfortune If tied
upon the forehead in a linen cloth II
was believed TO be a specific for dis
ease Of the eye.-Brooklyn Eagle.

IN THE making of dress accessories
L ribbons appear to have eelipsed all
othN materials. Everything from
hats to shoes and from indies to
wraps looks to ribbon for 8dornmant
and besides being used for making
gnrnituras, it PLAYS q part in the con-
struction Of many garments To begin
at the beginning In ribbon accessories,
Is to begin with saAhes There is a
world Of them to consider, from the
simplest bands Of the narrow fash
jonable two-toned, picot,edged ribbons
that have decked sheer summary
frocks to gorgeous and intricate af-
fairs in rich MORE or brilliant brocade
that are elaborated into bodices and
draperies. There are sashes for aft
ernoOn and evening gowns and there
are sashes for street gowns, all as diff
ferent in character as the frocks them
selves are. There are sashes that are
prolonged into trains and others that
become drapeTes for skirts or aspire
into bodices, with the aid Of mGiines
or net or lace. FroCks are really
merely lovely back grounds for these
ambitious efforts of the accessory de-
signer.
An affair of this kind claims consid-
Grafton in the group of sashes pic
tured. This extravagant and ingenious
arrangement consists Of an oyerbodice
and gIrdle which becomes a ripple Of
plaits over the hips and blossoms into
loops and four hanging ends at the
back. Two long ends reach the bottom
Of the skirt and are edged with frills
Of narrow lace. These and the two
shorter ends are rounded. The filmy
gown serves to set off this elaboration
of the sash into the most important |
feature of the costume 1t would be
effective in any Of the lovely colors
used for evening dress.
A much simpler and more popular
sash Is made Of wide, soft and plain
satin ribbon. 1t is adjusted about the
waistllne in a crushed girdle that is
brought twice around and raised at
the left side. 1t Is necessary to stay
a girde Of this kind with wire or
some other support. 1t is finished at
the back with two loops and two ends
and over its fastening at the side, a
spray Of small roses takes up the color
Of the ribbon and repeats it In many
delightful tints
A description Of sashes for evening
frocks might 90 on indefinitely, there
are so many Of them In such varied
but their growing i'm
portance in tailored frocks compels
For these there are fine
tailored sashas Ike that pictured in
the group shown here, and others,
less staid. This one is made of black
satin ribbon folded and arranged into
two loops and one looped end. The
folds are tackled to place. These tail
6red girdIes and tailored hat orna-
ments are very interesting and design

The Salvation Army is already
filling the baskets which will go
to the poor this Christmas, ana
yesterday a number OF Business
and Professional girls helped
Captain Pickering and his good
wife select the right amount OF
goodies to go inside the basekts.
Potatoes, onions, peas, corn, to-
matoes, apples, canned milk, su-
gar, coffee, oranges, bread, chick
en-, jelly, candy and nuts went into
these wonderful receptacles and a
War Cry was placed on top OF
each basket,
Happy indeed will be the joyous
recipient Of such a complete pres

prosperous individuals were heard
to remark yesterday: Say, Won

kets. I'm getting woefully poor,
and I'm certainly worthy
No, Stree, my friend-if you've
got n job and good health, you

While the amount collected in
the kettles has reached the $4,000
mark, the money donated will be
laid aside excepting what is ur-
gently needed for Christmas, and
will be used all during the winter
for Fairmont's poor. There are
still a large number Of baskets to
