We are shallow and selfish and lack- ing in dignity when we play one thing against another to gain our ends. Is it that we cannot think largely, com- prehensively enough to realize that when we disown responsibility for our actions and sayings we are reflecting upon others to their hurt and discom- fiture? It is almost as great a crime to be indifferent or unheedful of these matters as to be malevolent. There Is something radically wrong with us in- nately if we cannot sponsor our own individual ideas and opinions without making some one a “but” for them.— Exchange. - Offended the Herring. In the fifteenth and sixteenth cems turies Helgoland was a center of the North sea herring fisherfes. Then the herring veered back to Scotland’s coast and the islanders handed down a tale of the impiety by which they forfeited the boon. Yearly they would form in procession to march about the island to invoke the coming of the fish. One spring, when they had gone but half the route, the herring were sighted. They abandoned the rite and made for the boats. The herring nev- er came again.—Natlonal Geographic Magazine. Chinese Wheelbarrows. 1 ,bably more freight and .iore passengers are transported in China by the wheelbarrow than by any other land method. The wheelbarrow there used differs from that used by us, in the fact that the wheel I8 set in the center, and thus supports practically the entire load, while the handles are supported in part by a strap or rope over the shoulders of the man who operates it. As a result, the wheel- barrow coolle in China will transport pearly a half-ton on his vehicle. The Brainy Bee. The follswing incident testifies to the remarkable sagacity and efficiency of bees. A hive was being “spied upon” by a wasp. \When wasps ascertain a hive is worth attacking they often succeed in ousting the bees. Every time the waxp approanched the small entrance hole a bee came out. An hour later the wasp was dead.

MANY SHADES IN STOCKINGS | Fair Wearer Hard to Please if She Cannot Find Something Especially Suitable This Season. Royal blue silk stockings are often seen with otherwise entire white cos- tumes.

For dressy after- noon wear matching satin pumps are often worn, and in the evening silver or white kid slippers, with matching rolled stockings fastened just below ONEER . ‘WA,.UNC;Y’S TURN TO LAUGH cuu-FMed;': Farmer Learned Some- . thing ‘About' ‘the Value Legal i Lights Set on Services. Chanu'c/‘ey M. Depew, in writing ‘the “story of shis Jife, recalls his first law cafe, . It was in Peekskill. The client Was a farmer and he wanted an opin- oih on certain property rights. - Depew spent a week in looking up the points of law that had bearing on the case and when he had finished charged the modest fee of $5. *“Too much,” cried the farmer. “But it's taken me a whole week 1o prepare this,” protested Depew. “Don’t make no difference,” declared the farmer. “I figure $1.50 is all it's worth and that’s all you're going to get.” About a week later the man came to the office again, “Mr. Depew,” he sald, “I had some doubts about that opinlon of yours, so I took it down to New York and showed it 1o Mr. ——. And what do you think he charged me, just for readin’ that opinion of yours snd put- ting his O.

Cotton hose are popular (when ob: tainable), for they hold the roll better than silk; they are made with solid lowers and striped tops.

With this bare knees fashion there is much care taken of the corset, for without the garters from edge to hose to hold-them down the corset must be made with insets of elastic below the ?el: to give the supple, uncorseted ef- ect, - ; Corset makers have been endeavor- ing toward this end, for this iS no new departure, as it was launched from a fashionable school over a year ago, and worn all during the winter, even at Saratoga, where the cold is severe. —Women’s Wear. SMART BLOUSES IN FLANNEL All White or With Striped Colorings They Are to Be a Rival of the Sweater. Many of the smartest of the new fall blouses show panel arrangements, efther back or front, and some of them have both back and front panels. In the range of strictly tailored blouses now being brought out for fall some very smart flannel models are being shown. Flannel blouses have always been rather highly regarded for sports wear, but they were rarely seen last year, manufacturers reporting that fabrics were too difficult to secure. All-white blouses are featured, but those made of white flannel striped in dainty pas- tel colorings are decidedly the best looking. The flannel blouse trimmed with collar and cuffs, and sometimes pocket flaps of angora in a color to match the stripe in the flannel is a smart novelty, and for golf er other sports wear promises to be a rival of the sweater. New Autumn Sweaters. A large proportion of the girls who ; have been at seaside and mountain re- | sorts during the summer have come home determined to make new sweat- ers out of their old ones. Many a pnln-‘ fully knitted sweater has bheen ripped apart, and 18 being remodeled into one of the new shapes with bell sleeves and a full peplum. The prob- ! lem here, of course, IS to match the old wool. One clever girl, however, | used the old wool for the body and bought wool of contrasting color for collar, belt and cuffs. Black is usu- ally fine for this purpose. Velvet for Wraps. ! Velvet Is being used In a varlety of ' frock wraps. It is used for coat frocks which are fur trimmed, for pic- turesque dinner frocks of flowing line, and for draped effects In evening wear.

That Material Put Forward by Leading Amer- lcan Designers. _F'lowerad taffeta is belng used in the development of evening dresses by some of the best American designers. One charming frock seen recently was made of gray taffeta splashed with pink roses. The girdle or bodice was of cloth of silver and a small pink os- trich tip held the side drapery in place. aped, effects predominate in the development of evenlng frocks. Tunic and redingote frocks share honors with the more fluffy draperies, the general tendency being~to show a greater width at the hips than is in evidence in daytime frocks. Metal trimmings are very much fa- vored, and in the lineup of lovely fab- rics, shown especially for evening frocks, a chiffon with gold or silver motifs is one of the novelties of the season. A gown made of one of these fabrics may have bodice or girdle of metal cloth matching the motif on the fabric proper, a really gorgeous gown being the result. MAKE A COLD PIT In a dry spot in the garden oxca-| vate for a depth of two feet or more of a size suitable to be covered with glass sash.
