U. S. STUDENTS FRIVOLOUS?
Carnegie fund. Dr. Nltobo Is president or Kliht Higher college of Toko.
He says that ho does not tlnd the boy students In the United States oc
cupying the high moral plane that ho had expected. Also that he observed
that the men are for less seilous In tho work than the Japanese students.
"In this country there is not the application that Is chaiacteilstlc or
tho Japanese students," u-ild l)r. Nltobo. "Here one tinds less gi hiding, less
midnight oil is burned and there Is less disposition to take the course sell
ously. .Probably wo aro too serious la Japan. 1 sometimes think wo are.
Yet I do not think that the average Mudeiit heic really has his hoait in the
work."
TO FOUND NEW
Mrs. Jano Dowle, widow of tho
late John Alexander Dowle, llrst apos
tle of Zlon. Is attempting a reconsti ac
tion of tho Zionist movement in Chi
cago. Helleving herself divinely Inspired
to carry out the woik her husband
began, Mrs. Dowlo camo to Chicago
last fall and gathered about her the
fow remaining members of tho
prophet's original (lock. An exile from
Zlon City and tho tabernacles her
husband founded, she planned to re
build tho Zlon congregation with the
aid of Glndstono Dowlo, "unkisxed"
son of the departed Klijah II.
The younger Dowlo was In full
sympathy with the plans of his
mother, but apparently lacked tho
Jlvlno Inspiration for tho task she has
undertaken. He had alrcndy resigned
from tho present chinch at Zlon City
following tho assumption of absolute
control of Wilbur Glenn Voliva, gen
eral overseer and successor apparent
to the first apostlo and Is now studying for the Episcopal ministry.
Mrs. Dowic has not allowed the defection of her son to dismay her,
but has regained spiritual communion with neaily 1,000 of tho original con
gregation. The rennlon of tho present Hock, sho declares, does not mean
a schism from the religious teachings of the parent churci.
Faith healing, as in the original Zionist code instituted by John Alex
ander Dowle, occupies the most prominent place In tho work of the recon
structed congregation. Mrs. Dowle claims tho power to heal all bodily ills
through the medium of prayer and administers 'to the liecdB of her own lit
tle gioup of followers.

Sho finally gave tho Cntulontan peasant a sum of money as well as a

CITY OF ZION
Queen Victoria of Spain Is slowly
but surely winning tho affection of the
Spanish people, who at first strongly
disapproved of her nnd hor English
ways. In fact, if King Alfonso suc
ceeds in keeping his throne it will bo
due in part to tho domestic virtues of
his wire. Queen Victoria has set a
new fashion in Spanish society, that
of mothers taking personal interest
in their children.
Queen Victoria practically devotes
her life to her babies. Sho oversees
the work of the nurses and occasional
ly may be seen on the grounds of tho
palace wheeling the Princess Beatrice
in her specially Imported English
perambulator Just like any English
mother. All this Is in deflanco of the
rigorous court etiquette of Spain,
which demands that a queen should
leave the care of her children entirely
to others.

PLAIN LINES MOST POPULAR
This Season's Linen Suits Are Made
With None or Very Little
Trimming.
While tho coarser linens nro used,
tbnso mado of tho liner twisted thread
are liked quite as well. Vory llttlo
trimming is needed. Tho laco collar
and cuffs or tho lingcrlo frill at neck
and wrists suMce, though, of course,
buttons und buttonholes, laco and em
broidery may figure as trimmings.
Oddity of cut is, however, tbo only
thing necessary for those who wish
something different. It is surely dif
ferent enough to havo tho back of tho
coat and skirt cut across on tho bias
or otherwise manipulated. Yet, such
manipulations offer no difficulties to
tho laundress. Theso suits may bo
made coat and skirt fashion or in tho
coat and dress effect. Both stylos
have their good points, many consid
ering tho former tho most economical,
since a fresh blouso may bo donned
as often as the wearer pleases. And
sleeves and necks do have a way of
becoming soiled before it is necessary
to send the cntiro dress to the laun
dry. Many dresses are being made, too,
in linen and kindred weaves. The se
verity of theso all-in-one gowns 1b bo
ginning to disappear. While the puffs
seen on taffetas are not available there
are pipings, lnlaylngs and bands in
contrasting fabrics.
Fancy linens and linens with open
work borders are effectively utilized,
though one who Is at all clever at de
signing will be able to achieve verj
fine suits with the plain sorts. It's
the design, out and finish that counts,
also the accessories. One girl, for ex
ample, Is to look smart In her white
linens this summon the only color
she is to add is sapphire or coral, as
the spirit may move her. Whether she
chooses the blue or the odd pink
shade she will wear it in the shapo of
silk stockings, ribbon watch fob and
necktie, and no other color will ap
pear except she chooses to carry a
parasol in tho color sho 1b woaring.
Wired Feathers for Hats.
As tho hats are all trimmed very
high wired feathers arranged to sew
on hatB may ho purchased, und flow
ers also in pompon effects. Ono of
theso feather tower effects costs $4.50;
others nro near tho ono dollar margin;
tho prlco varies according to tho qual
ity and kind of feathers. Aigrettes nru
nro still In evidence, though moro in
whlto thnn blnck. In buying whlto
ostrich fenthors of tho Icsb expensive
grade it is well to run ono's hand
gently down tho length of the quill,
pressing back tho feather to seo that
it Iiiib been propoily dyed, as these
nro apt to show tho blown of tbo nnt
ural feather In tho outdoor light and
tho breeze.
For the Summer Resort.
Tho very thin negligees nro so dei
llghtful that ono somotimes .forgets
they may not bo practical, for manyj
summer resorts aro cool nt night and.

GAME OF TENNIS IS POPULAR
Matchless as Lure to Open With
First Breath of Spring and Not
Abandoned Until Fall.
The tennis playor will tell you that
his same is matchless as a lure to the
jopen with the first breath of real
spring, and not to be abandoned until
"the frost is on the pumpkin and the
corn is In the shock."
If tho derivation of the name golf
be in doubt, though It is quite certain
ly from the Dutch "Kolfe," meaning
club, the derivation of tennis is yet
more obscure. The best that can be
.said of it is that It is probably from
the old French' "tones," the impera
tive of tenlr, to seize, or take; that Is
ithe ball. Tennis as it is played in the
'open, usually called "lawn tennis," Is
the legitimate daughter of the ancient
English game of racquet which was
played In the covered court, and there
fore the name "tennis court" which is
used for the place of the game any
where. Nobody can see a game of lawn ten
nis and not be fascinated with 1L As
played in America it is usually a 'social
game of the sexes, nnd Dan Cupid is
often an Invisible but very palpable
spectator, paradoxical as that may
scorn. The place ot the play is a
"court" in more ways than ono. For
tbo cultivation of grace of physical ac
tion, no gamo ever Invented was su
perior to lawn tonnis. It quickens tho

MAN'S LANGUAGE TO BRUTES
PecUHar Click and Chirp Used to Start
and Hasten Horses Used In
Many Parts of World.
The tale of the farmer In the Ara
blan Nights who could understand the
languago of animals and fowls in his
barnyard probably had its origin la
the ancient myth which asserted that
in primitive times men and beasts
were able to converse together.
In truth, as everybody knows, there
are certain sounds, or words, which
horsos, dogs and other animals can be
taught to understand; and, on the oth
er hand, somo of the sounds uttered
by domestic animals have a meaning
that man can understand. All this Is,
of course, a very different thing from
languago, and yet it has a certain
scientific interest, evidenced by the
various investigations that have been
made.
It has been shown, for instance, with
reference to tho language used In talk
ing to domestic animals that people
unconsciously attempt to lower their
languago by abbreviations, etc., to tho
comprehension of brutes, very much
as they do whon they talk to young
children. A curious fact is that tho
peculiar click and chirp used to start
and to hasten the movements of
horsos are employed In wldoly sepa
rated parts of tho world, but somo
times In n reverse eonso. In India,
for oxamplo, thoso sounds nro used
to stop Instead of to start horsos.
Food for Fishes.
"Now, Suslo," said thq Sunday
school teacher, "you may read tho
next verso."
Tho llttlo girl read, "Cast thy bread
upon tho waterB."
"Why should we cast our bread
upon tho waters ?"skcd tho teacher.
" 'Causo tho fishes have to be fed,"
was tho reply.
Brother Was Too Small.
Elsie, aged 4, was taken in to seo
the new baby brother that had recent
ly arrived. "Mamma," she said, after
looking the baby ovor, "why didn't you

larger!"
