Clouds of dnst blew ont of the second story window where Charley Jo was vigorously sweeping. The big. oldfashioned house, habitually suggestive of homelike comfort and odorous of the scent of sard en flowers, had an atmosphere of open doors and windows, newly scrubbed floors and uncarpeted stairs, while the air war redolent of soap and water, carpenter's paste and r shellac. "Everywhere." as Lola expressed It "was a painful cleanness!" Even the lawn had not escaped. It was strewn with mattresses and pillows. "The?

I . guess Mr. Kirkpatrick's friend will . Have to." J They were very much absorbed in that shellacing. They didn't hear a ~~ step on the porch?they didn't bear a door slam. But they couldn't help hearing P. K.'s voice. It reached them like a big fog horn through a thick odor of shellac. "Hullo. Lola?have you se*n anything of?hullo, why. who in the dev? why?Kirk! What In time does this mean?" Brady's apprentice, brush in band, had advanced, with his wide smile, and was shaking hands enthusiastically with P. K. "When did I get here?" Lola heard blm saying?"came up on the morning train?got into the only cab Santa Rosa affords; got spilled out of that Into a limekiln on the way over?and looked so poor when I arrived that I got a Job Instantly."

It 1c will be remembered tb?t when the ja Czar proposed the peace convention at which ended in the establishment of ti< the tribunal, the proposition was greet- tl< ed with Jeers by the German press and vl with great coldness by the German m Government. Germany, likewise, was 01 the last to appoiut delegates to the convention, and all through the pro- i feedings exerted Its whole influence I against the attainment of the ends a< sought. The Times correspond cut now si arnrti that the moment may uot Ih> hi far off when the real cause of Ger- 01 ninny's systematic opposition to The m Hague court will tie known. To put his ft conjecture in a few words, Germany pi steadfastly opposes any plan which w will give an luternatlonal status to The fl| Hague and to Holland in general. l?e- Hi cause such would interfere with the ti realization of certain well-defined as- at piratlons she has. lu other words, Ger- ri many is still looking toward the mouth It; of the Khinc and Intends some day to vi make an effort to possess It. Should at Holland come to be regarded as the seat of a great international court, a ground neutral to all nations. Germany's plans might have a eeriou* A setback.

Your dressmaker will he sure to pertade you, or at least to endeavor to tide you In having her make up a Lirt waist suit for you. It is a good ittern for a foulard or summer silk, hlch will be used as a street gown, be "shirt waist" idea does not necesrlly condemn you to this form of hode. Many of the so-called shirt waist ilts show jacket fronts and a narrow aistcoat effect. The hack of the hod- j e Is made like a shirt waist, and the cket fronts are never loose, hut are Itched down to the lining. The elasr phrase permits a good deal of variaon from the titular model, and indidual choice can determine In what eas.:re you wish to deviate from the 'iginnl drslgn. Opfiwark win*!. Winged ornaments are ornamental idltlons to the spring blouses, both of Ik. linen or Boft woolen cloth. The utterfiy witU "sail s?t" in full flight, r the gauzy dragon fly are favorite totlt-lci. They are set on the blouse out. or shoulders usually, and the rettiest of the models have open work Ings, while the body of the flying pure Is embroidered solidly or in outtie applications. These pretty patrns are especially suitable for decor-j ing young girls' garments. They val flower designs in present populary. But every one wears them, proded they can secure the novel decorions for the useful blouse. A* to Wrarlai the Tell. Frenchwomen, while doing justice to merlcan woman's taste in dress, aver tat not oil of us know how to wear a ^TE5T face veil. They cnnnot understand why these tissues should he strained closely over the face. Their argument is thut the modish veil should be loose* ly draped over the countenance, hanging like a valance from the hat or toque, aad never dragged tight over tbe face. It is not meant by this that the veil must necessarily be gathered under the chin or balloon out with a gus' or wind. It must simulate looseuess. however, and not be drawn like a uiask over nose and cheeks. Velvet Tea flowni. Tea gowns of velvet are at present considered smarter than those of dia- j phanous materials, because of the love- j ly lights and shades that fall on the , long lines, giving a most artistic effect. The various shades of garnet, and especially those of purple, are tbe favorites. because so effective; royal purple, heliotrope and mauve show up lovely in the draping, which must be on the picturesque order. The princess model | is the favorite, but the front Is either ( flnwIniF nr rirnnml nttd In Addition to the lone train, the front is made long ' enough to hide the feet. Hats Grow Smaller. Smaller and smaller prow the bats displayed for early spring wear. The turhan with turned up brim is more and more popular all the time. For the moment, when the hat is not made of some soft material, the brim is faced with some soft fabric, tulle, chiffon or "frayed silk." so that no harsh lines will come against the face, and the brim at the back is so narrow that all the hair is seen. Ribbon Grapaa. The ever-present grapes are made ot ribbons and sold in bunches for ornaments. One hunch is made of black ribbon, each grape being as large as a i good-sized natural grape, round and j full, and there is a knot of bright green j ribbons at the top. Another bunch of ; grapes is made of green ribbon, and it : has a knot of white ones at the top. f IDiinpq uiua narrow miiuvi? Many of the new spring goods are m 31RT WAI8T.v finished with narrow borders. These borders are effective on the bottom of the skirt or applied in lengthwise straps on the seams of the skirt as well ; as on the bodice and sleeves. They are In all the daintier wash fabrics (linen and cottons), as well as silks, mohair* and flanuols. Ttlllng Again Popular. Old-fashionrd tatting is again popular. Many of the new spring waists, made of the sheerest lawns and mulls, have Insets of tatting in wheel designs all over the fronts, uleeves and stocks. Other new waists have butter colored lace, combined with pure white lawn, a very smart combination. Girl's Tackcd Coat.

If we car build up his physical condition he soon gets over It, but often we have to semi the men back to the States to recuperate. "At first we had a good deal of trouble with quinine.
