7-7 China For. Shirt Waist Scts. New York giils do not a little de signing themselves along the line of ornamentation, and one of the new est ideas sprang from the brain of a Burden girl. Miss Burden concluded that, amid the wealth of precious metals and jewels used for belt buckles and shirt waist sets, other materials were being neglected woe fully,- so she decided to employ china as a relief from the eternal glitter of the too-popular gold and silver pret ties. In consequence. china sets prom ise to be favorites this winter, espe cially for morning wear. Don't jump to the idea, however, that they are in expensive. On the contrary, tney are made of the most delicate china, and their cost mounts high. The shirt waist set includes, of course, cuff but tons, pins for the blouse and a square belt buckle of largs size. All the pat terns are of fairy dimensions, and most of them, in faint tints. The sets look smart enough with the gowns, of rough silk worn in the forenoon. Miss Burden's favorite frock of that kind is a golden brown, and the china set that goes with it is addrned with goldenrod.-New York Press. In Favor of Girls. In the late afternoon they come, in thousands, out of stuffy offices and crowded stores and noisy fictories. They've been there all day long, pa tiently taking "dictation" from fret ful, perspiring, irritating men, or try ing to satisfy a thousand querulous voices over the telephone, or decipher ing the wishes of impatient or unde cided women across the counter, or with twinkling fingers *guiding and feeding insatiable machines.

All day they have been under orders' and prisoners of rule. But when they come forth In the late afternoon all that is changed. Then they dominate, and all men are sub ject to the pleasant influengs of their dominion. They banish discomfort and quiet complaint and make habit able the cars they crowd. But for the presence of these marvelously neat, calm, unobtrusive, unconscious benefactors, the home-going cars in the evening would be as cages of sul len hyenas these trying days. That telephone manager back East who said that every girl who is bright and neat and clean is a pretty girl, is everlastingly right.-Kansas City Times. Athletic Training. "Mothers," said Mrs. Agnes A. Botha, of the Philadelphia Children's Home Care Society, in the New, York Telegram, "should have moref say *about the athletic training de their1 young boys in our public schools. Many fine boys are being weakened physically and neglectedl mentally through too much athletics between the ages of ten and eighteen. "A .mother is inclined to let the boy's father decide this matter, but this is all wrong, because nine men out of ten will ehcoqurage a boy to dtth~e head of his school ath '., -en at the sacrifice of his oth er. > m. '--ver aalikes to stand up with his business associaites and brag about what his by-is doing in the school: "As a matter of fact, no boy should be allowed to go seriously into ath letics until he is twelve or fifteen years of age. Ordinary play Is enough to keep a boy strong and growing nat urally without abnormal muscular de yelopment. "The usefu~lness of public school athletics, in their prevailing extent of development, is more or less open, and there is a considerable difference of opinion as to the best methods of iducting such by-plays of public . ication. But there is no question the desirability of placing scholar p unreservedly foremost in the ad *ment of conditions.I In private schools each institution fairly decide the question of the importance of athletics at it chooses. Parents who do not approve of ath letics have the privilege of sending their children to schools where ath letics are not exalted-and there are some such. . The question of athletics in the public schools, however, is quite a different matter. It appears to be the desires of the public, who support the schools and for whom they are conducted, that athletics shall have a place. But that place must be secondary to the main pur pose of popular education." An Arbiter of Manners. Of all the complex requirements Sof modern civilization, the hardest to live up to is an English butler!" de clared an American hostess recently in humorous despair. "You see, he gives no sign of satisfaction when sone does fulil his demands for a lady in 'igh life; and when one doesn't, there is something in his eye-an expres s-on of remote, respectful, but utterly crushing withdrawal from responsi bility for the errors of such a hope. less person as yourself-that extin guishes one's last lingering spark of independence. Und'er Higgins' disap proval I am reduced to a worm of the dust! - Her guests laughed, and several feelingly assented. But one woman, who visited much in England. de clared that on his native heath the British butler developed virtues he seldom carries across the Atlantic. The butler at a famous country house where she visited was an aged man, of silver hair and benignant coun .tenance, whose many years of loyal service in the family had earned their full reward of affection and respect. He felt an almost fatherly degree of responsibility for the manners and be bavior of the younger members of the' family, especially upon cere monial occasions. At a large recep tion the American guest overheard him speaking to the youngest grown daughter, under pretense of bringing her a lace scarf: "Miss Hedith! Miss Hedith! The hold- gentleman by the 'earth 'asn't 'ardly been noticed by anybody for 'alf an hour." Miss Edith not displaying any eagerness to hasten to the. relief of the neglected one, a fat, bald-headed, unattractive little mafi, he continued, reproachfully: " 'E's a person of himportance if 'e is helderly. I've 'eard 'e's much respected in the 'ouse. Besides. Miss Hedith, in the words of the poet, 'Kind 'earts are more than' coronets;' and I 'aven't a doubt, if 'e'd happened to think of it, 'e'd 'ave hadded 'and brainy 'eads than 'air!" The conjunction of bard and butler was sufficient to recall Miss Edith to her duty as a daughter of the a white sauce by cooking together r and a heaping one of flour, and, pouring over them a pint of un ew drops of onion'juice, then pour olks of two eggs.

Youth's Companion. Younger girls still cling to the windsor tie. Crocheted buttons are more In the style than ever. Black satin revers and cuffs are to remain in style. The all-black hat still retains much of its popularity. Zibeline, serge and the chaviots are popular for coats. The military cape is much used for driving and motoring. Bronze slippers .are quite stylish for eveniing housewear. Shimmering silk stuffs in two-tone effects will be seen through the sea son.

Here are scores fi cities and towns, the home of tie textile industries, the potteries, the great shops busy with iron and steel and other raw materials, manufac turing goods of high value for a mar ket as wide as the earth. Over all this lowland hangs a black pall of soft c6al smoke, the landscape stud ded with the tall spouting chimneys. For all this endless activity in man ufacture is wholly due to the location in these lowlands of fabulously rich deposits of coal. Coal for a century and a half has been a magical bank account in Great Britain, bringing in to existence these great artisan popu lations, making demands on every continent for the metals and timber and textile fibers for the busy mills, and then calling on the farms ai ranges of America, the Argentine and other new lands, for the bread and meat to feed these industrial millions.

"We once had a walking race from Pleasant Hill through West Union. Milton and Trotwood to Dayton. Jack Rogers in his prime had walked well, but he was now getting on. He shouldn't have entered.: Before West Union was reached Jack began to lag, and at Trotwood he was very far be hind indeed. "The Trotwood boys jogged along beside the old man.

Swarms of bees are sometimes com pelled to take refuge in remarkable shelters. A peculiar and instructive instance was observed by the writer in the spring of 1908. The swarm flew over a large vineyard which con tained few buildings. Oue of these buildings was constructed of hollow oncrete blocks. Th~e swarm flew directly toward a small hole in one of the blocks and disappeared in the in terior. No doubt the swarm had rested an a tree or shrub on the pre ceding day and had sent out scouts to seek a home. The . couts found the little hole leading into the great cavity of the cncrete block and reported their dis covery to their comrades. This case furnishes indisputable proof that swarming bees really send out scouts, as they are believed to d. .for the little hole could not have been dis covered in the rapid and lofty flight of the swarm.-Scentific American.

I did everything that I could hear of for her, but it did not give in until warm weather, when it seemingly subsided. The next winter when it became cold the eczema started again and also in her head, where it would take the hair out and leave bare patches.
