/ - V " ' ' " -t New York City.?The tasteful breakfast jacket is one of the most satisfactory garments any woman can possess. It means comfort as well as daintiness during the morning hours; s It affords relief from the high collar and cuffs of the regulation shirt waist and If well selected is apt to to be extremely becoming. This one can be made as illustrated, with the Vsliaped neck and elbow sleeves, or I hieh with r. Krtllnr collar and lone! sleeves so that it becomes adapted botli to present needs and to the fuA a _ _3 4.. Vl O lure coiaer a&ys. as musuaicu, mc material is Indian linen with the yoke of tucking and trimming of embroidery, but there are a great many similar washable materials that are liked by women who prefer such at all setsons of the year, while there are also innumerable light-weight flannels, albatross, cashmere and the like, that also are well adapted to the design. For the present and for many weeks to come pretty dimities, lawus, wash silks and the like, are perhaps to be preferred to everything else, but the time of cooler weather ie approaching, and when It shall have arrived wools will be in demand. Trimming is always a matter of taste, and any pretti' heavy lace or banding can be substituted, or narrow banding cau be used as shown in the email view. The jacket is made with the full pointed yoke, and a plain back. It can be gathered at the waist line and finished with a belt or can be adiuKtprt hv mparis of ;i IiaU nf rihhnn as in this instance. The sleeves are of moderate fullness. Those of elbow length are finished with straight bauds over which the embroidery is arranged, while the long ones are gathered into deeper, shaped cuffs. The quantity of material required for the medium si?.e is three yards: twenty-seven or thirty-two or two yards forty-four inches wide with three-eighth yard of tucking and one and three-quarter yards of embroidery to make as illustrated; three and three-quarter yards twenty-seven or thirty-two or two and one-quarter yards forty-four inches wide to make with sailor collar and long sleeves. Pink Carnation* as Trimming. Spikes of creamy pink carnations, looking so natural that one could almost catch a whiff of their fragrance, were used in the trimming of on;* hat, and a huge mushroom leghorn shown by the same importer had :i ' scarf and back bow of very broad ; light blue ribbon, and at intervals ] around the crown stiff bunches of wood violets, primly encircled bv their foliage, nestled among the soft folds of the scarf. Folds and Tucks. The bias folds and the deep tucks still hold sway, and are seen everywhere on cotton, linen, silk and wool costumes, and while those of graduated widths are often noticed, the tid^ of favor seems (o have turned toward the bauds, folds and lucks of the same width, and either two or three as preferred. I tstitch Finish Preferred. ' Coats bound with braid, though stylish, have become common, the best makers preferring to finish the edges with several rows of stitching. Seen at a Wedding. A gray mousseline de sole gown worn by an elderly woman at an out- I of-town wedding was trimmed with f a sort of drawnwork and fringe, and ? was almost entirely covered by a long 5 coat of gray ehbroidered net. The hat was trimmed with po-pptes. 1; i! Quaint Cnj?es Appear. F It is odd to see these little capes a bobbing up in the fashion world as a serenely as though they had not ap- i peared two years ago. and failed ut? c terlv to make any impression upon us. 1; Somehow, now, though, they seem particularly appropriate as accom- h paniments to the quaint turn of fash* ^ ions generally. ? I'lAirnrt On ITn^c - b In spite of the fad for placing a most of the trifnmiug toward the back o of the hat, many of these aureole t shapes have flowers massed at the 5 front, just behind the backward roll- 5 p ing brim, and. perhaps, though not necessarily spraying backward and ^ sidewise over the crown, while a scarf is twisted softly around the crown. r . o Fancy Blouse Waist. f The fancy blouse is always in de- u mand and is ever taking on fresh and a fascinating forms. This one is distinctly novel and is adapted to all the _ pretty materials of the incoming sea- 3 son. It would bo equally charming u in light-weight silk and wool, and, aB f; we are promised an increased number h of both, it will find many uses.

We glory that we have 10 autocracy of birth. But by our R1 )wn consent we have allowed to reign m >ver us as greedy a set of politica.1 lirates as ever sunk a ship. Their July distinction is that they are able wi o fool most of the people most of th he time. The governmental condi- ar ions existant in nearly every hanilet UE 111(5 oitv ill Hip lTnitpri SfatpS of Amcr ca are so absolutely disgraceful that Il? ve ought to be ashamed.

America is hypocritical in her conations of things religious. We )k with wonder and astonishment on the inconsistency that is appart between the noblest books of .stern religions and the manner of e among the devotees of those re;ions systems. We do not exalt id by the sharpened scimitar. We not roll under Juggernaut. We not provide money and food at the le of the graves of the departed, e do not let our nails grow for e-time in order to glorify Almighty id. We have more sense than to these. But what do we do? Why, ! proclaim Jesus Prince of Peace lile we proclaim peace a fantasy d exalt the doctrine that the way ensure peace is to go well armed, e magnify the philosophy that says urn to him thy other cheek." But : keep our gloves on. We believe at "righteousness exalteth." But : acknowledge, as practical men, at it is impracticable to be strictly nest and prosper. We acclaim the srnal necessity for an exact conrrence of thought and speech, word d deed, look and action. But we ad our Bibles to China packed bele a hold of beer. We assimilate e Indians by the efficient force of me. We civilize the Philippines by ty of Milwaukee. We sing, "Unlo tee, O God, be liches," but we mainin a large proportion of the urches of the living Christ in this ad by such devious and precarious ;thods as would put a heathen to ame. And so long as we scoff at e inconsistencies of foreign religis systems and are satisfied, with a Ise optimism, to congratulate our 'n with all its incongruities, we are pocritical.

George Adam Smith has inserted e following eight maxims that he und described on the flyleaf of ummond's Bible: First. Pray. Second. Think. Third. Talk to wise people, but do t regard their decision as final. Fourth. Beware of the bias ol ur own will, but do not be too much raid of it. (God never necessarily warts a man's nature and likings, it it is a mistake to think that His 11 is the line of the disagreeable.) Fifth. Meantime do the next thing or doing God's will in small things the best preparation for knowing in great tilingsj. Sixth. When decision and action e necessary go ahead. Seventh. Never consider the desion when it is finally acted upon. Eighth. You will probably not id out till afterwards?long afterirds, perhaps?that you have been i at all.?G. W. S. Herald.

An Inhuman Wish. It was a clergyman with a care for souls, in one of the poorest parts of London who went down to a provincial town to plead for support for his work. They had a large meeting for him, and he made a most telling appeal, at the dose of which up jumped a good man, promising $250 as a start. The clergyman was overjoyed. "I don't know, your name, sir," he cried, "but I thank you. I thank you. May your business be doubled in the coming year." Then a solemn hush settled down, and the meeting, as it were, looked at itseir. "What's the matter?" the clergyman whispered anxiously to the chairman. "What's thfc matter?"

The first trip of the Lusltania has aroused no little discussion as to the 1 pronunciation of the ship's name, many well-versed speakers insisting on giving it the souud of Lusitannia, to rhyme with Britannia.

Perfect Womanhood The greatest menace to woman's permanent happiness in life is the suffering that comcs from some derangement of the feminine organs. Many thousands of women have realized this too late to save their health, barely in time to save their lives. To be a successful wife, to retain - the love and admiration of her hus I baud, should be a woman's constant study. If a woman finds that her energiesare flagging, that she gets easily, tired, dark shadows appear under her eyes, she has backache, headache, bearing-down sensations, nervousness, irregularities or the "blues," she should start at once to build up her system by a tonic with specific powers, such as LydiaE.
