1t is said of Lee that he was as
''obedient to the law as Socrates
He himself said that duty is the
sublimest word in our language"
Therein was the keynote of his
character. From that ideal he never
veered. The boy who went through
West Point without having received a
dement, achieved the same fine grade
in the school of life. In no recorded act
or utterance, even under the harsh,
trying conditions of war, did he ever
reveal himself as other than a high
hinder gentleman, ever assuming all
responsibility for failure generously
according credit to others, accepting
every turn of fortune serenely.
His military genius, once fie,cely
debated, is fully established. Moth {

BAGS OF PAISLEY
Late Style Accessory Is Made of
Bits of Old ShaWlS.
Black Moire Most Satisfactory All
Around Material; Beaded Models
Have Passed Away.

The little hand bags are SO numer-
Gus that they confront one at every
turn, and Yet many of them are un
beautiful. one has to hunt and hunt
before coming upon anything wholly
pleasing and satisfactory. Either
they are too beautiful TO be efficient
or they are too efficient TO be classed
among the beautiful. Is there any
thing worse than one Of those bunchy
bags, crowded with too much material
and looking like a badly wrapped
bundle?
Some Of the newer bags are made OF
Paisley-bits of the old ShaWlS-and
they are most satisfactory. They are
lovely bits Of color, to begin with, and
then they are made so that they have
spacious enough interiors to make
them feasible carry-alls for the woman
who must have some pocket in which
TO put the helpful appliances for her
outdoor makeup. Some Of these
Paisley bags are beaded along the out
lines Of their patterns with rows Of
touch Of work is charming addition.
There will be a steel beaded string
with which to carry a bag Of this sort
and often a steel tassel or two is used
for finish at the point where the
shape of the bag ends.
The black moire bags are perhaps
the most satisfactory all around and
they are chiefly notable for the frames
upon which they are mounted and the
ivory or jeweled clasps used to snap
them together The one big value of
black bag is that it goes with every
thing.
Beaded bags, unless they are ex-
traordinariy handsome, have passed
away as a strong asset to the toilets
of smart woman. OF course, there
are those finely woven purses Of beads
without Innings which are so extremely
colorful that they will often be chosen
