Work Of Professional.

Trace a design on the material TO
be used and underneath II lightly
tack some Brussels net. Under the
net place a piece of heavy cotton
cloth. Pad the design where Ii will
be most effective with coarse mer-
cerized thread, using a much finer
number for the actual embrddery.
When padding the stitches must al
ways be the reverse of the way the
embroidery is 10 be worked. and the
embroidery itself must he worked In
satin stitch. always being careful TO
take UP the net foundation. When
the design is finished take a sharp
pair OF scissors and cut away the
muslin all around the pattern. being
careful not TO clip the net. The net
must. OF course. be cut away from
any part Of the material not covered
by the design. When finished the
work looks like exquisite lace.

SHOW uneven HEM
Vandyke Mode Featured in
Gowns for Afternoon Wear.
French Designers Are Showing
Dresses Short in Front and Very
Long at Back.

Some Of the new French models for
afternoon wear show the popular un-
even hem: the favorite idea seems To
be the uneven. vandyke points at
either side, sometimes as many as
three. When the skirt is longer back
and front than at the sides IL looks
rather untidy. but the longer sides give
quaint and not unbec0ming outline.
Curiously enough writes a Paris
fashion correspondent, Redfern and
DOucet are both showing dinner
gowns which are notably short In
front and very long at the back. When

Black gowns for afternoon and eve

Every possible material is called into
use. but the two popular stuffs are

THE CITY.

THE CITY.
TN THE land that is silent forever,
i asleep I'm the star and the sun.
Where noiseless wanders the river,
where voiceless the rivulets run,
Where men are not cultured nor clev-
er, where wealth Is not wanted
nor won,
Where the world moves in musical
measure, where aureate daffo-
dis nod,
Where Nature gives freely her treas
ure, her tree and her bloom and
her sod,
With only an acre of azure to curtain
the presence OF God,
1 have heard in the stiffness of slum-
Der, have heard in the nearness
OF night,
When the tasks of the day that en-
cumber lie hard on the sense
and the sight,
City, her song of delight.
I have heard, and have come at her
calling, have followed her glow
In the sky,
I have come where in dirt she was
sprawling and beckoning men
such as /.

She has opened her door at my COM

Around her the roses were blooming.
the passionate roses of red;
Around her mad music was humming,
and music the words that she
said.
About me went white arms and slen-
der-for such had an Antony
died;
| gazed on her womanly splendor; /
drank of her lips, and she
sighed;
I looked in her eyes that were tender,
I looked in her eyes-and she
lied.

Hardly any of the new evening
dresses have sleeves of any kind. The
arms are bare right up TO the shoul-

bare. but this fashion Is not meeting
with the approval of the best Paris
iennes. Some of the Rue de la Paix
dressmakers are showing such gross

women of fac taste have revolted.

Just Folks
EVERYWHERE IN AMERICA.

Not somewhere in America. but every
where today,
/ Where snow-crowned mountains hold
their heads, the wales where chill
dren play,
Beside the bench and whirring lathe,
on every Lake and stream
And in the depths OF earth below, men
share a common dream,
, The dream our brave forefathers had
of freedom and Of right.
And once again IN honor's cause, they
rally and unite.
Not somewhere in America is love Of
country found
But east and west and north and south
once more the bugles sound
And once again, ss one, men stand to
break their brothers chains.
And make the world better place,
where only justice reigns.
The patriotism that is here, is echoed
over there
The hero at a certain post is on guard
everywhere.
Ger humble home and mansion rich
the starry banner flies
And far and near throughout the land
the men Of valor rise.
The flag that flutters DER your home
is luttering far away
Ger homes that you have never seen.
The same impulses sway
The souls Of men In distant states,
The red, the white and blue
Means TO one hundred million strong.
just what I means 70 you,
The self-same courage resolute you
feel and understand
Is throbbing in the breasts of men
throughout this mighty land.
Not somewhere in America, but every
where today
For justice and for liberty all free men
work and pray.

that the speed was IN excess Of Is

coupled with the fact that no applica-
ton OF the air brakes seems to have
been made while descending the 1900

was t. xcess Of 10 miles an hour. II

which Prof. Pink Halbert was elected

the day.
Brother Halbert appointed the re-

seemed that each one tried to do bet

singing went from good to better all
