The ones with dark ground are more useful than those with white background, but if trimmed with the color of the patterning the white and color ‘materials would still be fairly practical, and surely very suitable to girlish use. Blue wistaria, gray and brown are pretty colors to use, these touched off with a Ilittle black or matching silk and the bodice being made always for a change of collars and ¢uffs. . Black and white challle, with a limited amount of colored silk for the trimming, would be very effec- tive for a little frock made up in this manner, the bows and belt of scarlet or of a very bright blue or soft green. As to the collars and, cuffs, they can, of course, be of the trimming material and if one wants to smarten them on occasions it is perfectly possible to top them with others of imitation Irish from that city, and of the affair the Independent says: “To say farewell \txr their pastor who has been with them for four years, and to wish him Godspeed in members of the Presbyterian church galhered last night at the home of Mr. and Mrs. George N. Sarven, with the Rev, and Mrs. James T. McLean as the guests of honor. Mr, McLean recently resigned charge of the church here to accept the'pastorate of the church at Clearwater. “That Mr. McLean was loved by his congregation was shown by the gath- ering last night. An attractive pro- gram consisting of music and reci- tations, was given by the young peo- ple of of the church. Dr. W. M. Davis, on behalf of the church, spoke briefly in appreciatioil’ of the work that the retiring pastor has done in St. Petersburg. Mr. McLean respond- ed by expressing his regret at leav- ing the Sunshine City and telling the people of his cqngregatlon how rauch his stay in this city has meant to him. “A delightful suppet was served by the young ladies of the church, after which all joined in singing ‘Blest be the tie that binds.’” The Cloak of Gold. * (By Lillian Russell.) - Probably a greater crime than mur- der is about to be practiced upon twenty simple, beautiful little work- ing girls by an enormously wealthy society woman whose name has been pientioned freely relative to the cir- cumstances—a Mrs. Larzz Anderson. This woman is an American of enor- mous wealth, having inheérited about $17,000,000 from her father, Willam I'. Weld, of Boston, Mass. As the story goes Mrs. Anderson is ar writer of fairy stories, and to ex- perience a real fairy story for her own amusement she has decided to take these twenty pretty young girls and, under the guise of making a psychological test, transplant them to her princely castle in Massachusetts There for ten days these poor little girls are changed by a magic wand into princesses and lead a most lux- urious existence. She will give them servants to at- tend their beck and call. Motor cars, horses, ravishing toilettes, maids to wait upon them, and exquisite food|lace. In this évent it does not in the will be served. They will enjoy for |least matter if the silk set is large h d 11 th 1th can gem s e o bk beyond those of the collars and cuff bestow upon them.

The phychology of this situation probably will be interesting and fas- cinating to rich women who have be- come bored. But to every mother who reads a pang of horror will pass through her heart at this criminal abuse of the privilege of doing good. Not one of those girls will ever be happy again. No plain cotton dress- es or stockings will look well to them. They will resent their parents and surroundings forever more. That will be one of the psychologi~ cal effects that will amuse the rich woman. There are but two openigs for the outlet of their Ambition—the convent or wealth at any price.

'T0 KEEP TOOLS AT HAND S ¥ Useful Case Wherein Articles in Con- stant Household Use May Be Placed for Convenlence. 1 There are certain tools—a hammer, | a screw-driver, a gimlet, a pair of | pincers, and a bradawl, that should 13 find a place in every household and 18 even if they should happen to be pos- sessed, it is quite wonderful what a | knack of disappearing they have when | they are required, unless some Spe- | cial place is assigned to them and they | are always kept together. It is, therefore, well worth while making a strong case for them into which they may be slipped when for a time they are not in use, and we [=g5g] give a sketch of a useful and practical | case of this description which should be carried out in brown holland and ! bound at the edges with braid. Across | the center a band of broad elastic 18 | sewn down at intervals, forming al series of loops under which the han-! dles of the tools may be slipped and ! held in their places in the manner shown in the sketch. A large pocket is arranged on the lower part of the case for nails, tacks, screws, etc., and it is furnished with a fold over flap, fastening with buttons and buttonholes. This pocket folds upwards and the upper part of the case folds downwards and so encloses the tools. The lower sketch {llus- trates this, and shows the case folded up and secured with the strings, and the word “tools” should be roughly | worked in colored wool where indi- cated. To determine the gize of the case it:1s a good plan to'arrange the tools upon the material prior to cutting it out, 4 LEARN TO SIT CORRECTLY BATES Bargains ’ < " All This Week Shoe Sale Wash' Goods Sale Ladies’ Ready}-to - Wear Sale > , Sométhing Doing Every Day. Good time to buy Honest Merchandise at a Very Low Price. Importance of Proper Posture Is Not Sufficiently Recognized, but It Is All-important. ¢ In the good old days a lady would no more think of sitting with her el- bows on the table and of crossing her legs than she would of eating with her knife. Now such actions are so com- mon as to pass almost unnoticed. It good form will not prevent such habits vanity and regard for health should. Nature’s laws are more per- emptory than those of soclety and more swiftly punished. The girl who leans habitually on her elbows soon ruing them. The skin roughens and reddens, eventually be- comes callous and horny." Worse yet, the pressure of the body on the elbow stops the circulation and reddens the skin of the entire arm.’ More dangerous is the habit common to men and women alike of sitting with one leg swung over the knee of the other. The pressure comes at a sensi- tive part of the leg and knee, a spot | where there are a number of large veins, arteries and nerves. The pres- sure stops circulation, crowds the tis- sues together and produces various lls. Many a woman who suffers from headache or numbness will find it re- lieved it she cease to sit with her legs crogsed. The habit long continupd produces varicose veins, a red nose, bruised spots and other ills attend- ant on stopped circulation. 9 It will be easier to conquer this bad habit if & woman makes a practice of sitting erect on chair or sofa with the end of her spine pressed close against the back of her chalr. This will throw her feet in a natural position on the ground and the temptation to loaf or sit crosslegged is minimized. ————— Mourning Costumes. . For half-mourning wear fine black serge trimmed with purple satin is re- spongible for some charming schemes. In the case of ietty walking sult which was' evolved recently the high- walsted skirt or fine black serge was made with two buttoned seams, the one being at the left side of the front and the other at the right side of the back, The bodice of this simple frock was stipplémented with a flat pointed hood—or Robesplerre collar—of violet s&fin.’ This costume was worn with's 14 S e 0 a y n fixed to the crown at the right side.
