LIVERY summer finds, in its bright
IL cortege, lovely afternoon frOcks of
white or of black lace, and they are

enduring charm. An occasional season

THOSE who express their thoughts IN
i terms of millinery must be at their
happiest when they create the lovely
hats of midsummer. The gracious days
and nights of summertime, prodigal of
beauty. are written In these lacey and
flOwery garnishings-they are truly the
poetry of apparel, and the talent of
the designer blossoms at its best in
them.
While their season lasts, designers

SOMETHING TO
THINK ABOUT
By F. A. WALKER


| TO be able to answer all Of those
ten questions correctly, Offhand, would
Indicate education. but 1t would not
prove knowledge.
The mind of the college graduate
when he leaves his alma mater is in
much the same condition as the palate
of man who has tasted in rapid sue
cessiOn several varieties of spices.
He is unable to make prompt and
accurate use Of what he really pos
sesses.
To the spice faster all the spices
temporarily taste alike.
To the graduate his information is
conglOmerate mass out of which he,
with great difficulty, picks the fact
which he requires.
Time will restore the accuracy to
the palate.
Time and application Of the knowl-
edge will enable the college man to
arrange his mental stOrehouse so that
he knows where things are and how
to use them.
Mr.. Edison does the college gradu-
ateS an injustice when he says they
are uneducated. They are in most
cases educated, but they are un-
trained.
Education you can get in part from
books. Training comes only with ex-
perience and practice, in applying ECU
cation.
st. Bernard, who was one of the
greatest of ecclesiastics, writing to
friend, said: Trust to one who has
had experience. Stones and trees will
teach you what you will never learn
from the masters"
And Shakespeare, who had perhaps
read what st. Bernard wrote. put
these lines in "As You Like It."
And this our life, exempt from
public haunt,
Finds tongues in trees, books In the
running brooks,
Sermons In stones, and good in every
thing"

casions, the little japanese sets, cloths

The old fashion of loading the table

SWAMP-ROOT FOR

There is only one medicine that really

DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root stands the
highest for the reason that it has proven
to be just the remedy needed in thousands

Swamp-Root makes friends quickly be-
cause it's mild and Immediate effect is soon

EDUCATION.

THO8IAS EDISON, whose ability
L 10 get space on the first page OF
he newspapers has Of late been thor
Oughly demonstrated, announces thai
the modern college graduate has nc
education at all and that there is nc
place in his organization for the ig
norant.
The trouble with Mr.. Edison Is that
he has confused education and knOwl
edge. They are entirely different
things.
You can educate a horse or a dog
but nobody has yet succeeded in Civ
ing them knowledge.
Mr.. Ford, who is a warm friend OF
Mr.. Edison, has very little education
as he proved when questioned under
oath on matters literary and historical
and yet no one would deny that he
has knowledge.
Mr.. Edison based his judgment of
the college graduate of today on the
answers submitted in response to a
QUESTIONABLE which he prepared as a
test for young men :eeking employ
ment with him.
Those same young men, even If they
were only average college men, could
have Off-hand prepared questionable
In answering which Mr.. Edison would
have made a miserable failure.
1t would be no trick at all for any
well-informed man to write ten Ques-
lions to which Mr.. Edison could not
furnish so per cent technically cor
rect answers.
If you do not believe it, or IL Mr..
Edison does not believe 1t, try to write
down without consultation of any
books or seeking information from any
outside source the answers to these /:
Who was Pilpay?
What and where Is the medulla OBJ
longata?
What point on the earth has neither
latitude nor longitude?
OF what nationality was Columbus?
Which Is the oldest of modern re-
ligions?
How many teeth has a dog?
How much does a cubic foot of air
weigh?
Were is the island of Philae?
How many nations has the earth?
What three noted men were contem-
pOrarieS of VOltaire?
OF course as wrote down these ques-
lions l naturally chose queries to
which l knew the answers and yet 1
am not, even as the author of the
queries, certain as to the accurate an
swers to two of them.

THE WOODS
By DOUGLAS MALLOCH
SYLVIA.

SYLVIA.
IT WAS because the dawn was in
her eyes,
1t was because the night was i'll her
hair,
Because l heard the forest in her
signs,
held her fair.
She came upon me meath the huddIed
caves,
She walked beside me in the maze
of men
Her sadness. sadness of wood that
grieves,
Her smile, the sun again.
Her voice was like the whispering of
trees,
Her laughter like the tinkle of a
rill;
Her cheeks, blushed roses, roses such
as these
Upon the hill.
She was a river in a thirsty land,
A changeless star in midnight skies
to shine
Her touch, to walk with Nature hand
in-hand-
And she was mine, was mine.
So leave me in the wood a little
while;
Here where the grass is greenest
let me lie
The sun shall bring me once again
her smile,
The wind her sigh.
Here only do we seem no more apart,
In verdant ways beneath the skies
Of blue;
The stirring earth will seem a beat
ing heart,
The heart, the heaNt I knew.
Once only she could bring the forest
Aear,
In those old days amid the painting
crowd,
Once only she could make the stars
appear
Beyond the cloud.
So now the forest that her soul ex-
pressed
To my own soul Is her interpreter
In ev'ry wind that wanders east or
west
1 hear but her, but her!

THE HOTEL WORKER.

TT HE hotel worker gets her board
Il and usually her lodging, as well
as her salary. The salaries run from
$50 TO $50 a month. Hotel positions
are interesting and important. A girl
must have intelligence, a good pres
ence, good manners, and level head.
She has responsibilities, and she ought
to be a judge of human nature. The
room clerk must have a good memory,
so that even with a large clientele she
will remember the different guests who
are making her hotel their home, and
she should be able to size up applicants
for rooms without hesitation.
The desk clerk comes into direct
contact with the guests. She is sta
toned at the desk in the main lobby,
and must be ready to answer all sorts
of questions regarding not only the no
tel, but the city. She must be smart
in appearance, have tact, courtesy and
unfailing good humor.
The floor clerk accepts packages, an
swers phone calls, pays for G. o. d.
parcels. She OFTEN does Sten0grapny
for guests. She receives, sorts and de-
livers the mail for her floor. And she,
too. answers questions.
Then there are the restaurant posi-
lions, the cafe cashier, the food check
er, the waitress. All these positions
are good ones.
Moreover, there are the summer ho-
tells, where a girl gets room, board and
salary, varying according to the type
of hotel. Many college women help
themselves through college in this way.
For the ambitious girl without def
mite training hotel work is to be rec
commended as an excellent way to earn
an Independent living.

sireS. This is both convenient and
economical as it eliminates leftovers.
When candles are used for lighting
the table, one may have the inexpens-
i've glass candle sticks and the shades
may be made at home, having any col

candle coming through colored shades
makes most attractive table.
Stemmed glasses are used for cock
tails as well as desserts, while the
handled cups are used for punches
and sherbets.
Dishes and silver may be both in
expensive and elegant; garish, heavy
silver and highly-colored china Is not
found on tables where good taste is
used.
Dainty service need not mean large
expenditure, for the most money Is
not used always in buying the pref
test things. One of the daintiest of
bowls with grayish white background
and beautiful blue design was picked
up at five and ten cent store. Good
design and colorlng is not always
found in the high-priced things, 'for

Jazz Music.

Jazz music is simply a return to
a more primitive type of music much
In vogue among Indians and negroes.
The chief characteristic of this class
of music is what is known as syncO-
patton, which changes the regular re-
currence of accent, and destroys the
rhythm. Nearly all savages have this
irregular idea of music. When prop
erly treated syncopatian is very eff
fective, but its abuse is very Objec-
tiOnable to anyone with any sense OF
rhythm or to people of musical educa-
ton. The craze is fast dying out, and
is not often heard now outside
