The style evidently was originated to carry out this Idea. Fundamentally, though, It Is of the Directolro period. The parasol Is of white silk with a broad black velvet band and silk fringe. "When folded up, it can bo car-. ried liko a cane. Dainty Dress Grey voile with a silk stripe made up over satin forms this dainty dress. It has the skirt just eased into the waist-band and faced up at the foot by a piece of the material, which is piped at tho top with cerise satin. Tho bodico also has a lace yoko piped and trimmed on the shoulders with buttons nnd loops, these also trim the over-sleeves, while the under ones are of the lace. , Black satin rib bon encircles tho waist, bows and ends are arranged at tho left sldo of front. Materials required: 3 yards voilo 40 Inches wide, 3 yards satin 40 Inches wide, yard cerise satin on the cross, yard lace 18 inches wide, 2 yards satin ribbon. For the Young Girl's Eye. I Thero Is nothing more beautiful than simplicity of character. It is honest, frank and attractive. How different is affection! The simple minded are always natural; they are at the samo time original. The af fected are never natural. As for orig inality, if they over had it, they have crushed It out and burled it from sight utterly. Be yourself. To attempt to be anybody else Is worse than folly. It Is Impossible to attain it. A genu ine cent 1b worth more than a counter felt dollar, and the smalleBt person .who is real, 1b worth more than the biggest fraud in existence. Let tho fabric of your character, though eyer co humble, be at least real. N. Y. DAINTIEST OF TABLE LINEN Most Elaborate and Expensive Is That In Uee In Parisian Establishments. Table linen in Paris today Is of the most elaborate and expensive descrip tion. Teacloths nre made almost en tirely of lace composed of squares with Insertions of finest embroidery, and serviettes and napkins must also match tho cloth. Another expenslvo habit is to have all tho crystals In colored Bohemian cut glass to match the hue of the hostess' afternoon toilet. At a recent reception given by a society leader harmony of color wa3 very successtully carried out. Plates, glasses and decanters were of pink cut crystal, while tho lady of the house wore a tcagown of rosecolored nious selino de sole. Tho color scheme was also preserved in tho flowers on the table, and long-stemmed pink roses were everywhere about tho room. A wealthy host tho other day, ac cording to the Crl de Paris, prepared a surprise for his guests by an elab orate "sea fantasy" built up as a ta ble center, with Bhrimps and tiny eels swimming about in tho miniature ocean. NOTE IN COLOR HARMONIES Modistes Have Achieved Really Ex quisite Effects With the Materials This Season. The subtlety of tho color harmonies of fabrics, combined with multi-colored embroideries of tho evening gowns, are quite sensatioual this sea son. Take, for Instance, two shades of soft gray chiffon marquisette. It Is wonderful what effect can bo creat ed by tho graceful draping. Then an emerald green tulle over Jeweled em broidered satin, which was shown at a recent exhibition, had a suggestion of Titnnla's gossamer draperies. An other gown suggestive of mystery and the East was in snpphiro-bluo nlnon, opening over a sldo panel of embroid ered Parma violet silk. A regal white satin and diamond evening gown, with narrow laco trimmed train, which had a black note in the velvet how at tho waist and tall feather headdress, was very striking. Novel and Useful Clock. Among curious clock novelties is tho shadow boudoir clock. With It thero is no need of getting up to strike a light or turn on tho bulb, All that Is necessary Is to touch a button and tho time is flashed on tho wall, after tho same fashion that signs are flashed on the sidewalk. When the owner of the clock goes to bed ho turns a night dial to the coiling and when he presses a bulb tho electric light reflects from the dial through the lens and appears, giving tho correct time in shadow on tho celling. Motorists' Lunch Box. A toy trunk makes an Inexpensive and practical lunch box for motorists. It will hold enough for several meals, and tho tray can bo used for napkins and small silver. mam Opposition to Frats WASHINGTON. Twenty-flvo states nro represented in a crusade which tho lawmakers and school au thorities of tho country are waging against the high school fraternities, according to tho United States bureau of education. Of these, 13 states hnvo passed legislative enactments hostilo to tho secret orders, while the school boardB of important cities in the other 12 states have adopted like measures within their own jurisdiction. All states having laws on the sub ject provido n penalty of suspension or expulsion from school for nil thoso who join theso orders. Tho most drastio laws were passed by Iowa, Minnesota and Nebraska, whoso legis latures mado It a misdemeanor for any one even to solicit members to theso organizations: Michigan and Ohio mado It a misdemeanor for a school officer to fall or refuse to carry out tho anti-high school fraternity law. Other stutes which prohibit these or ders are California, Indiana, Kansas, Mississippi, Oregon and Vermont.

"Be quiet," cautioned Louise, in a low tone. "I can smell whisky," Louise raised herself to a Bitting posture, and by a dim light which camo through the window from a lamp in tho alley in the rear of tho house saw the face of a negro look ing directly into her eyes. So close was tho dark face that tho girl could smell tho odor of alcohol in his breath. Louise saw the man was sitting in a chair beside tho bed, and while she gazed at htm, fascinated with fright, he left the chnlr, got down on the floor on his hands nnd knees and started crawling from tho room. Before he reached tho door Louiso aroused the household with screams, aided by Mildred. Their father, James E. Brownwell, was awakened.

Tho course is separated Into two di visions. The first part, which Is under the management of Prof. Ramon Me nendez Fldal, will afford tho foreigner an opportunity to acquaint himself with tho fundamental ideas of tho Bpnnlsh culture. Tho second part of tho course consists of excursions to public, historical, architectural and art monuments, under tho conduct of scholars whoso demonstrations, ac cording to Senor Don Juan Rlano y Qayangos, tho Spanish minister "can not but bo incomparably superior to thoso offered by profes!onal guides."

Most courts cited, however, will not nllow tho offending pupllB to bo bnrred from classroom exercises, although they can bo barred from participating In nil athletic or other contests. "Tho high school society will very likely never win such a placo In tho American educational system as that now occupied by tho college fraterni ty," said William B. Hood of tho edu cation bureau's division of school ad ministration. "Thoro Is no such need for a high school fraternity; Indeed,' among Its most Insistent opponents are many collego fraternity men."

In the decade from 1901 to 1910, tho denth rate from tuberculosis In tho United Stntcs declined from 190.9 for each 100,000 persons living to 1C0.3, a decrease of 1S.7 per cent., while tho general death rate, Including all cases of death, declined only one-half ns fast, or at tho rate of 9.7 per cent., from 1655.0 to 1G95.8, according to figures given out by tho National Assoslntlon for tho' Study and Prevention of Tu berculosis. Tho figures aro based on data abstracted from tjio reports of tho United States bureau of tho con? bub, and cover tho registration area of this country. According to tho statement, tho tuberculosis death rate has declined steadily since 1904, when It was 201.C. On tho other hand, tho genernl denth rate shows a fluctuation downwnrd In general trend, but not ns steady as tho tuberculosis rnto.

BABY'S ECZEMA AND BOILS "My son waB about three weeks old when I noticed a breaklng-out on his cheeks, from which a watery bud stanco oozed. A short time after, his arms, shoulders and breast broke out also, and in a fow dnys beenmo a solid scab. I becamo alarmed, and called our family physician who at onco pro nounced tho dlscaso eczema. Tho lit tle fellow was under treatment for about thrco months. By tho end of that time, ho seemed no better. I be camo discouraged. I dropped tho doc tor's treatment, and commenced tho uso of Cutlcurn Soap nnd Ointment, nnd in a fow days noticed a marked change. Tho eruption on his cheeks was nlmoBt hcnlcd, and his shouldors, nrms and brenst wcro decidedly bet ter. When ho wns about Bovcn monthu old, nil traco of the eczema wns gone. "During his teething period, his head and fnco wcro broken out In bolls which I cured with Cutlcura Soap and Ointment. Surely he must havo been a great sufferer. During tho time of teething and from tho tlmo I dropped the, doctor's treatment, I used tho Cutlcura Soap and Cutlcura Ointment, nothing else, and when two years old ho waB tho plcturo of health. His complexion was soft and beauti ful, and his head a mass of silky curls. I had been nfrald that ho would ncvor bo well, and I feel that I owo a great deal to the Cutlcura Remedies," (Signed) Mrs. Mary W. IlamBey, 224 E. Jackson St., Colorado Springs, Col., Sept. 24, 1910.
