the millionaire shoo manufacturer of

sentlal to wealth , but by economy I
don't mean niggardliness.
"Too many men fall to attain to
wealth because they practise a
cheeseparing and mean economy that
gets everybody down on thorn.
"They practise , } n fact , an economy

For Pieces of Lace
with clever fingers win
WOMEN worth their while to nave
nil bits of lace , ribbon and cm-
broidery tliat nrc In good condition ,
for they can utilize every scrap In
making the jabots , bows and collars
that are now so much worn. The con
struction of these trifles makes pleas
ant work for the summer vacation ,
and they are an useful for gifts ae for
personal use. The four designs given
are not commonplace , yet they are
easy to make. The Jabot IB made of
mull Valenciennes lace , with embroi
dered butterfly tabs of linen. The
largo design hardly needs an explana
tion , as It IB a working drawing for
a collar to be worn with a collarlcss
gown. The bow has ends of mallncs
under squares of lace. Linen Is the
material used for the standing collar.
SOME PARISIAN COIFFURES
Tendency Now Shows a Lesa Close
Mass of Hair Surmounted by
an Aigrette.
Wo turn to Paris for the prevail
ing coiffure , and In turning we flnd
slight but noticeable changes.
The present tendency is toward n
ICSB close mass of hair to which an
aigrette or plume adds height. This
decoration Is hero shown worn vrlth
a Jeweled band of ribbon , which maybe
bo gold or silver or a color studded
with brilliants or with Iridescent
gems , according to the gown.
Particularly appropriate for the
young girl Is the wreath of roses worn
with a not-too-flat coiffure , but a
simple one. Leaves arc often substi
tuted for the roses and to good effect.
With two winged ends of black vel
vet , altogether suitable for an older
woman , is that broad band of black
tulle wired along its edges and
studded with Jet
And last we recommend for the
moro youthful one a simple fillet of
gold or silver gauze , with at each end
a largo rose , made qf cloth of gold
or silver.
Time was when the young girl
looked overdressed with her hair In
a flllet unless it was n very simple
affair , indeed ; but fashions have become -
como so much more elaborate that ,
with a little discrimination , it is quite
possible to single out many simple
enough hair ornaments for the 'youth
ful face. >
Girls and Their Figures.
Stiff corsets are unknown In France.
French corsets are nlwaye supple and
bcndable , and this accounts much for
the ease of French figures , which are
never tightened except at the waist ,
leaving the bust and hips quite free.
If the figure Is tightened In too much
nt the bust and hips , It gives too
straight a look to the figure and
makes it stiff and uncomfortable ,
movement being rendered ungraceful
by this stiffness. Let any girl try to
lace her corset only at the waist and
let her select it as soft and light as
possible , and then see If her figure bo
not as graceful In shape as the French
flgure.
No tight , straight down , even lacing
will ever make a pretty flgure. If the
corset cannot bo made expressly to
suit the flgure , then let It only be
laced in the middle of the waist. Even
them no real corset should be worn by
girls until they are well In their teens.
Uses of Cretonne.
The "cretonne girl" is trimming her
hat to match her waistcoat , Jumper ,
girdle , belt and collar and cuff sets.
With whatever materials she has left
she fashions a bag which is mounted
on the gilt frame of a shopping purse
that is out of commission because its
handles are broken and its leather
sides shabby. This does not matter ,
because she throws the leather away
and substitutes cretonne bands for the
broken or worn handles of leather. If
the "cretonne girl" is unusually ener
getic she may contrive a parasol to
match her other flowered accessories
by carefully matching the cretonne
figures upon the gores of an ancient
parasol cover and then mounting it
upon the original frame. -
With Manicure Scissors.
The small curved scissors Is an in
valuable little Implement In the hands
of the all-iound capable woman. It
belongs to the work basket as well as
a stencil cutter , and it will prove
equally necessary for the cutting out
of embroidery , whether machine or
hand made , and for the cutting away
of material under lacea to make them
transparent
There nro curved lines In cowing
that will be more safely cut out and
small spaces Into which no other scis
sors will so successfully get as the
manicure blade.

any other material that bos not
warmth , but a beautiful transparent
color. Is now nred mr outer wraps
that may not be useful If the primary

are decidedly beautiful , which. Is their
own excuse for being.
Mantles of beautiful hues fall Ilka
clouds around the forms af their for
tunate wearers. They are weighted
with heavy fringe. Bilk or beaded , or
they arc adorned with marabon or
heavy oriental embrcrittery.
The shapes are so varied that were
any attempt made to describe these
mantles there would be no end. Suf
fice It to say that nil lengths , degrees
of fulness , variations of the lower
line and disposition af ends are al
lowable , the Individuality of the de
signer coming Into play as the de
ciding Tolcc.
The effect of these transparent
wraps over the filmy evening gowns
of the season Is Indescribable. Merc
man might ridicule and scorn the Idea
of a chiffon cloak , but flaunt one of
these before the sensible creature , and
if he have an appreciation of the ,
beautiful he will uphold you in your
choice of a lovely accessory.
LATEST HAT MODEL
The latest hat , of white chip fitted

For Fashion's Sake.
Too many women wear things be >
cause they attract the eye , with too Ht-
tlo consideration of the becomlngness.
Waiting for a car at one of the sub
way stations Uie other day was a
young woman , rather unusually well
dressed. Cut her face was horribly
marked , especially about the cheeks
and chin. Moro than one of the wait
ing crowd looked curiously , and no
doubt pitied her misfortune. As she
drew nearer the electric light , how
ever , these markings resolved them
selves into nothing more terrible than
the pattern of her heavily embroidered
veil ! Seen In the light , the pattern
a design that might have been en
larged to some purpose on a pair
of curtains was not beautifying. Been
from n little distance , or in &
Jight , the effect was as described.
Innovations In Ring * .
The latest Jewelry novelty originates
in Germany , and in a special type of
ring for the divorced and the widowed.
It Is claimed that these rings save the
wearers , particularly the feminine BOX ,
from embarrassing or painful explana
tions , and in n delicate way inform In
terested persons of their drcunv
stances What next ?
VAIN SEARCH FOR TREASURE
Truth About Romantic Stories of
Wealth Said to Have Been
Hidden In Mexico.
According to JOKO Ramon Palafox ,
a Mexican Journalist , there tire no
hidden Montcztima treiimircB.
No doubt the storlos circulated
about the hidden treasures of the Ar.-
tec emperors have tholr origin In the
sadly exaggerated accounts of old
Spanish historians men who swal
lowed the yarns of the conquerors of
Mexico and whoso Judgment had been
upset by the few shipments of gold
and silver mndo to Spain shortly aft
er the taking of the Aztec capital.
The amount of gold and silver in the
posseslon of the Aztecs nt any time
was comparatively small and on the
sldo of the people consisted of little
more than n few personal ornaments.

metals was found by the Spaniards in
the imperial palace , and this was
promptly shipped to Spain by Cortcz.
Compared with the wealth of today
even this was n more drop in the
bucket.
The accounts of the Mbntczmnn
treasures Is merely a counterpart of
similar extravagances found on many
pages of history. Wo rend of the
fabulous wealth of the Euphrates val
ley , of ancient Egypt , of India and oth
er parts , and BO far have never found
a trace of it. In their day no doubt
these people had n certain amount of
gold and sliver , but they never had
enough to cause us moderns to call
them rich. Dispersed among them in
the form of currency , as is the case
of today , tholr wealth in precious
metals would have made them n very
poor showing. Gold and silver , then ,
as In the case of the Aztecs , were not
used at all ns
mediums of exchange or
wore used only in a very limited way.
Rulers paid and received tributes In
the form of gold , and converted It in
to articles of practical value or ob <
Jects of art.

sary of tholr wedding. TUshop Fallows
has taken up in n modified form the
Emmanuel movement , and has been
very successful in awakening his fol

relation to the maintenance of health.
"Tell them that I want to sny , as
St. John did , 'Little children , love one
another. ' Love can bo cultivated llko
any other sentiment It Is not only
an instinct , but u principle and n con
viction. It is not only in the blood ,
but in the Intellect Love is intcllcc-
tuallzed emotion. Young couples should
be temperamentally suited and then
they will blend together. They must
not wait till they got $2,000 a year be
fore they get married , and I don't ap
prove of nasty marriages. When I
married I was receiving $700 a year ,
and we always put something by. Love
is the greatest thing of all , and if our
married people had more of it there
would bo less divorces. Health Cul
ture.
A Strange Lake.
Captain Tilho of the French mis
sion to the Lake Chad region In Afri
ca has discovered some new vagaries
of that puzzling body of water which
has long exercised the minds of geog
raphers with Us problems. Ho found
in 1908 that caravans were crossing
on dry land the northern part of the
lake-bed where , In 1)04 ! ) , the captain
himself , had navigated an
open ex
panse of water.
The lake covers an
uiea about four-fifths as largo as Hel-
glum , but its average depth is only
five feet. Even the winds suflico to
change its level to such an extent as
to submerge or leave bare portions of
its shores. It is entirely independent
of the rivers that flow Into the Atlan
tic and the Mediterranean. Curiously
enough , the lake does not occupy the
lowest part of the great plain of which
it Is approximately the center , for ob
servation shows that northeast of the
lake there are plains of considerably
lower altitude than that of the lake.
The Southern Seas.
Readers of old records of explora
tion in the South seas will recall fre
quent references to the heavy swells
of the acean , which impressed the
navigators with the Idea of their re
moteness from land. Dr. Vnughan
Cornish explains the great size of the
sea waves in high southern latitudes
by the fact that south of the Capo of
.Good Hope the prevailing wind in nil
longitudes is westerly. Thus when a
west winu springs up It flnds n long
westerly swell , the effect of a previous
wind , still running. The new born
wind Increases the uteoiiriess of this
swell , and BO forms majestic storm
waves , which hoiiiotinies obtain a
length of 1,200 feet from crest to crest
The average height attained by sea
waves in feet fs about half the velo
city of the wind in miles per hour.
A Scientific Problem.
in the center of the garden , on a
pedestal , stood a largo glass globe. As
the guests sauntered about after din
ner ono of them , happening to touch
It , discovered to his amazement that
It was warmer on the shady side than
on the sldo facing the sun.
An argument immediately sprang
up , and in the course of the debate the
phenomenon was attributed to the law
of reflection or that of repulsion , or
something equally formidable.
"I don't know what ye be a-talkln'
about , " remarked the old gardener ,
who had been an attentive listener to
the conversation , "but I do know that ,
fcarln * the sun would crack this 'ore
globe a while ago , I turned It around. "

Theodore Roosevelt and Party In Whlto Steamer. )
After fifteen months' absence , exact
ly ns scheduled , Colonel Theodora
Roosevelt disembarked from the Knl-
tcrln Augusta Victoria , Saturday morn
ing , Juno 18 , nt 11 a. m. To the keen
disappointment of a largo group of
newspaper correspondents , Mr. Roosevelt -
velt absolutely refused , ns heretofore ,
to bo interviewed or to talk on politi
cal subjects , but his rapid fire of ques
tions showed the eamo virile- interest
in public affairs as before.
If the welcome tendered by the
vast throng may bo considered a
criterion upon which to base a "re
turn from Elba , " surely there was no
discordant note in the immense rccop-
tion-parado , nor in t-o wildly clamor
ous crowd which cheered at every
gllmpso and hung on his very word.
The incidents of the day in Now
York were many , but perhaps none-
better illustrated the nervous energy
and vitality of the man , the near-mania
to bo up-and-dolng , which ho has
brought back to us , than the discard
ing of horses and carriages for the
Bwlfter and moro reliable automobiles.
