The underbodice of messallne In cut with a round neck and elbow Blooves. It is covered with embroidered chiffon, nnd tho neck Is edged with n row of pearl beads.

Small, close-fitting, flexible hats, which can bo drawn well down over the head, have made a placo for them boIvob In motoring that no other shape nd stylo can fill. Braids uf silk fiber are soft and strong ana made In nil colore. Tho majority of hats designed for motor wear aro mado of this braid. Trimmings aro simple and hand mado, of tho braid that appears Iff the hat, or of other millinery fabrlca. Thoy Ho flat to tho brim usually, and aro not disarranged by wind or tho tying of a veil ovor them. Tho addition of a llttlo separate capo of chiffon at tho back, for pro tecting tho neck, results In a fascinat ing llttlo touch that Is now and "fetch ing." It Is not meant to replace tho veil but to keep tho neck from too much oxposuro to sun nnd woathor whc: liio voll Is discarded for a tlmo.

Thoi drapory Is dropped a llttlo from tnei waistline at tho back, tho fringe fall-i ing away from tho plait at tho center of tho back of tho messallne skirt The brido'B veil is gathered on a wlro band with much fullness, and not worn In tho manner of a cap.

JULIA ROTTOMLEY. Nothing More Remarkablo to Travel ers In Barbary Than These An cient Relics of Grandejr. London. Nothing Ib moro remnrk ablo to tho traveler in Barbary than to como again and ngaln upon impos ing masses of Roman ruins, testifying to tho presence of old, of high, civili zation In what are now mere waates. Tho steady expansion of Latin culturo into tho desert was indeed wonderful. For four centuries It steadily gained ground; after a hundred years of van dal mlsrulo It wnB still strong when, Justinian reconquered It, and It re mained until tho Saracens destroyed Roman Carthago moro than a cen tury nnd a half later. Ono of tho Archways of the Ruined Praetorlum at Lambessa. v greatest and most famous of the late Roman Imperial dynasties, the war. rlor line of the Horachada, was prob. ably of African origin cortalnly Latin, in its connections and sympathies. Tho best days of Roman Africa, were, however, In the first and second; centuries of tho Christian era. The Romans were mighty builders of cltiea and municipal life flourished exceed ingly during tho early empire. In fact, until the disorganization caused by tho barbarian Invasion of tho third cent,ury thero was llttlo of tho crush ing, life-destroying despotism which wo are accustomed to regard as char acteristically Roman. Everywhere over tho empire roae towna with regular municipal govern ment, nowhere more frequently than In Africa Lambessa, the headquarters of Leglo III. "Augusta," Thaumgadl (Timgad), also full of Roman remains, and many others. When tho pro tecting hand of Rome was withdrawn tho towns were deserted. NEED OF CUPID IN N. Y. MET Y. M. C. A. and Y. W.

"If tho two associations the Young Men'B and Young Worn en's Christian associations can give lonely men a chanco to mot congenial, lonely girls" socially at dances and elsewhere," said William Fellowes Morgan, at a Joint dinner of tho or ganizations, "wo will be doing much to solve one of tho greatest problems in Now York sociology loneliness." This suggestion by Mr. Morgan, who is president of tho Now York Young Men's Christian association, met tho hearty approval of Mrs. James Stewart-Cushman, head of the Young Wom en's Christian association. "As an experiment," Mrs. CuBhman said, "we have recently invited mem bers of tho West Side Young Men's Christian association to. socials at our recreation center for girls. Tho plan worked admirably and I think wo should both act upon tho result of the experiment, and Increase Its scope. It would bo another way In which tho Etrango boy nnd the strango girl could become acquainted." TANGO A CURE FOR NERVES Makes Old Folk Jolly, and That's the Reason, Says Gotham Phy sician. Now York.
