Much has been -written in the world ' fiction about vampires and their svful doings in the way of bloodsuckig. As a matter of fact, there is praccally only one bloodsucking vampire nt. although there is a smaller one hlch connects the common species ith the other members of the family, be first one, the common bloodsucking impirc, measures only about three iches in length, is of a reddish-brown >lor, and is found from Central Amera to Southern Brazil, on the east, nd in the west as far as Chili. From le structure of this bat it is more ran probable that blood actually forms s entire food. After a long, heavy sleep all day, this ampire comes out at night, hovers bout in ghostly fashion until it has elected its victim, and then sets to ork. In the first place it proceeds? lould the animal be woolly or thickly aired?to carefully shave away the air or wool, with the thin part of the tin, by its peculiarly sharp upper insor teeth. In this way the blood szes slowly from the small capillary essels, when the vampire bat at once ?gins to suck and goes on sucking the lood until its small body can contain d more. Horses, sheep and cattle are often ?rved fn this way, and as the opertion apparently causes little or no ain, the animals are not cognizant of liat is going on; but should the aticks be repeated, they become weak nd thin, and finally become wrecks. Although this is the only bat which ubsists entirely on blood, it is possible lat occasionally a few of the javelin ats may vary their ordinary diet in lis way.?Collier's Weekly.

The capes, which are optional, are attached to the stole which Is then applied over the neck and fronts. The basque portions are seamed to the lower edge, but these last can be omitted and the blouse finished with the belt if preferred. The sleeves are the full ones of the season with roll-over cuffs.

Brim Veiled an Dlarietn. A white chip hat has a high coronetshaped brim, with the edge cut in deep curves and bent carefully to stand upright like a diadem. This is veiled with a soft covering of fine batiste heavily embroidered with floral border deep enough to reach from the upper edge, nearly to the bottom. Below this the batiste is softly gathered into shape. The embroidery stands out well and resembles a crown of flowers or garland around the face, when it is executed in rose pink, pale blue or mauve. A small loop-bow of black velvet ribbon is set low down on the left side, almost directly resting on the hair of the wearer. Finance*. Quaint shades of hyacinth blue are as much In demand In linen as they are in dainty voile and etamlne. Rather open weaves of linen, or the poplin) er 1 % like eolienne weaves seem to be the most modish of this pleasant summer fabric. While the more usual pleats and panels will doubtless be most chosen by conservatives, the flounced affairs are the latest Parisian chic. Three of these is the rule, each fulled on to the one above, the top one slightly fulled on to the yoke. One gem In a clear, light hyacinth blue has bands with fagoting between to form the yoke, which points downward at the front, the back and over each sleeve. Embroidered Linen. A white line costume just brought from Paris by a woman of cpl ndid taste is richly and heavily embroidered in .white,-some of the motifs being padded out in high relief. The embroidery covers the front and sides of the skirt and a good part of the back. A modish flounced extension is added. It is woni with a Cluny lace blouse over white taffeta. The linen coat, which reaches well below the hips, is as heavily embroidered as the skirt. The whole thing Is richness personified. The New Bishop Sleeve, When made of batiste, crepe de chine or any thin silk, the blouse can boast of the new bishop sleeves adorned with rows of shirring both above and below. This sleeve is cut immensely full, and shows triple rows of close shirring on the upper arm, just below the armsize, and again at the wrist. Between these points the sleeve is very full, but as It is correctly cut, the fulness is not suffe-ed to droop. Such a blouse should have a full front, with a triple row of shirring extending across the front just below the yoke, which Is inset with lace. The New Hats. Most of the new models in hats show brims (rolled on the edge) completely covered with small green foliage and ' BLOUSE JACKET. buds of whatever flower Is chosen, with a heavy fall of the full flown flowers at the back.

Combinations of tucks and shining are notable in many of the latest gowns and waists, and are exceedingly effective in the fashionable soft materials. The very smart May Manton waist illustrated is shown in white crepe de Chine with yoke and trimming of Venetian lace, but is suited to washable fab rics as well as to silks and wools, ana to tlie odd waist as well as the entire gown.

TO the woman of ancient Israel not to become a mother was regarded as the greatest of earthly calamities. To become a , mother?more especially the mother of a strong, healthy boy?was the height of glory for the faithful woman of the good old Bible days. Even now, when maternity is not esteemed as of yore, the mother of healthy children is an object of admiration, and sometimes envy, by her neighbors.
