HE STANDARD to-day presents to its readers illustrations in connee- tion with the launching =r of the \u2018\u2018Lady Grey,\u201d the powerful new vessel ordered by the Canadian Government for the purpose of ice-breaking in the St.Lawrence.The vessel has very great engine power, and it is expected that she will far surpass any vessels of this kind so far constructed.The new ice-breaking and surveying steamer was built by Messrs.Vickers, Sons and Maxim (Limited), Barrow.The ship has been designed of special form, and constructed with heavy scantlings to break ice in the River St.Lawrence, and thus keep it open in the winter season for navigation.The steamer is at the same time equipped for other duties when not engaged on her primary service.Thus she is to be used by the Marine and Fisheries Board for surveying the coast and channels in navigable waters, powerful pumps and other gear being fitted for salvage work, and also an efficient arrangement of towing gear, so that the vessel with her great engine power may render towing service when required.The principal dimensions and particulars are :\u2014 Length between perpendiculars, 172ft.; breadth moulded, 32ft.; depth moulded, 18ft.; draft normal, 12ft.; draft mean when breaking ice, 13ft.; displacement, 1055 tons; speed, 14 knots.The hull, as indicated, is built of great strength to withstand the shocks due to impact against ice floes and to pounding of ice.The bow is of the \u2018\u201cCanadian\u2019\u2019 type, formed for mounting and breaking through green ice and for going through pack ice.A broad belt of heavy planking is fitted right fore and aft, extending in depth considerably above and below the water line, and the Piper Matheson hard at work at a meeting of the Caledonian Society.THE POLO TOURNAMENT AT ST.LAMBERT\u2014A hard tussle.gross sectional form of the boat is such as to resist the lateral pressure of the ice, which might otherwise close in and nip the hull.To further counteract thwartship pressure, double framing has been fitted by the introduction of intermediate channels.Forward, where the vessel first strikes the ice, these additional members extend from the keel to the main deck, while aft they are introduced between the bilge and the main deck.The side plating is also increased (Photographed for The Standard.) in thickness from the stem to a point well aft of midships.The hull is divided into six watertight compartments, and a double bottom extends from the forward to the after peak bulkheads.The compartments forward and aft of these bulkheads are arranged as deep ballast tanks, into or from which water can be pumped to quickly alter the trim to assist the vessel in riding over the ice, where, by reason of the superimposed weight, the ice is broken.A large pipe connects these various tanks with the ballast pumps for quickly emptying one into another.In addition to the usual steam windlass and cargo winch, steam capstans have been fitted forward and aft for warping.The boat is fitted with large rudder and proportionately powerful hand and steam steering gear.The portion of the rudder head at and above water level is protected by a heavy casting, and the gear is the strongest obtainable.THE POLO TOURNAMENT AT ST.LAMBERT\u2014Referee stops the game.(Photographed for The Standard.)

UEBEC IS FULL OF BEAUTY SPOTS.\u2014The quaint town, of St.Hippolyte, in Terrebonne County, among others, is fast becoming a favorite summer resort.It is situated high among the Laurentian Mountains, some forty-five miles north of Montreal, and is about 1,500 feet above sea level.The air is pure among the wooded hills, dotted here and there with irregular shaped lakes of peculiar beauty.One of these, Lac L\u2019Achigan, about a mile beyond the village of St.Hippolyte, has many pretty summer cottages along its border, and its waters are lively with steam launches, sail, canoe, and row boats.As its name indicates, it is the resort of bass, although it affords but little satisfaction to the piscatorial brotherhood, who usually seek other lakes or streams nearby.Alighting from the train at Shaw- bridge, the sojourner, with bag and baggage, is taken by waggon over a picturesque winding road, leading up hill and down dale\u2014each hill bringing him higher and higher, until he reaches the village named after the holy martyr, St.Hippolyte, who met his death in Paris in the second century.The village, of a dozen or more buildings, is perched on the brow of a hill, as though it had alighted there in its flight through the range.The cure\u2019s house, and the church and graveyard, are the conspicuous features on the sloping side of the road, while a line of low, slab or frame houses, including the is Thousands of City Toilers, Old and Young, Men and Women, Peek Out These Sylvan Haunts of Health and Rest and There Recuperate for the Fight for Existence in the Great Canadian and American Cities.found their way from St.Jerome\u2014then a small settlement\u2014to the site of the village.They came through heavily- woodéd forests, and made a clearing for themselves near the site of the present village.Others followed their example, until there was formed a thrifty settlement.Fifteen years ago, a gentleman from Montreal, in search of health, built a summer cottage on the border of Lac L\u2019Achigan, which proved so satisfactory a venture, that others followed him from the city.Since the opening of the C.P.R.track, summer visitors from various part of the world SE ES ce A FEW SCENIC BEAUTIES IN THE PROVINCE OF QUEBEC \u2014 Post- office and general store at St.Hippolyte, Lac \u2019LAchigan, Quebec.(Photograph by Arthur Mack, Kilkenny, Que.) - tiful road, with wooded hills on one side and the lake on the other.On this road, nestlihg at the foot of a densely wooded bluff, is \u201cWhite Pine Lodge,\u201d the artistic home of Cornelius Palmer.Half a mile farther on is \u201cBenhurst,\u201d the home of Mrs, B.T.Davis, peering from a grove of maples, and affording from its wide veranda one of the best views of the lake.\u201cThe Cedars, nearby, the home of Mr.John M.Molson, is unique and cosy.\u201cWillowmere,\u201d with its tasteful grounds, is the home of Mr.J.A.Harte;

however, we'll try a sight or two just to make certain.\u201d At this time we were about 500 feet from the edge of a huge coulee\u2014a scoop in the ground\u2014probably the moraine of an old glacier, and undoubted evidence of an ice age.It was 80 to 100 feet deep, and perhaps 1,500 feet across.Its general direction was N.W.and, as usual, the side facing northwards, where there was shelter from the winds of the prairie, a dense growth of willows and small stunted poplars had sprung up\u2014the only wood for sixty miles.Numbers of small deep draws ran into the coulee, coming from the west side.These were filled with rose bushes, willow tips, etc.,, affording a certain amount of browsing for all the deer for miles round.They were evidently in large numbers, too, for a light fall of snow shewed numbers of tracks.Not one of us had a firearm of any sort; as it afterwards turned out, we did not want any! The transit man began to set up his instrument, whilst the other three of us started ahead \u201con line.\u201d About two hundred yards away there was one of the deep side \u201cdraws\u201d to be crossed, but no sooner had I reached the edge of it, than I froze stiff, for there, not ten yards away, and not five feet below me, were five does, heads well up, and ears, looking yards long, listening, listening.One of them saw the movement of my fur cap, but perhaps imagining it to be some animal, made no other move than to slowly look back in an inquiring manner at the other four who were still listening-\u2014all ears; ears as large as a donkey\u2019s.I held out my hand to the other two men, signalling them to make no noise, and they knowing what to expect, crept up as quietly as thugs stealing on a victim.We remained there a couple of minutes watching, with never a move on either side.Just then the transit man, in great trouble, swore as only a westerner can swear.The voice came clear and vibrant in the crisp frosty air:\u2014 \u201cYou jumped-up, peel-heeled, gol- darned ewe-necked product of an apprentice, journeyman blacksmith.Holy blue Jemima!

Unable to stand it any lenger, the does turned and started to move off.The man behind me who held the picket\u2014a straight ten foot pole shod with a heavy iron point\u2014poised it horizontally for a moment, and then flung it with all the force, but half the precision of a Roman javelin man.It described a beautiful parabola in the air, but went just a little too far, and landed flat on the withers of the nearest deer.I've seen a cat drunk, I've seen a coyote hit in the vermiform appendix with a .22 bullet, and I've seen an hysterical woman suddenly confronted with a grass snake, but they none of them jumped quite so high or so far as that deer! The species are aptly named, \u201cBlack tailed or jumping deer.\u201d that they adopt this method, as I have seen them trotting like a moose when at a reasonable.distance from any chance of pursuit, After this we went ahead, talking and wondering what had become of the bucks, as it was the breeding season, and they should have been somewhere about.We shortly came upon another big draw running down to the main coulee, the farther bank being very very much higher than that upon which we were.As soon as ever the first man put his nose over the edge of the far hill, I knew there was something in sight.I ran up alongside him, and cau- er ing, and their antlers had become locked.Then followed a scene of the wildest excitement.I ran towards them, shouting to the man carrying the stakes to give me the small bit of rope he had for carrying them.But the stake \u201cartist\u201d was a Russian, and knew not the meaning of \u201crope.\u201d Anyhow, when I ran, he followed, and on arriving on the spot, at once grasped the situation, and also the deers\u2019 horns! He was sent flying ten feet for his trouble.Another man then coming up, made a dart for one of the buck\u2019s high legs, and managed to get two grips, but he got a violent kick in the stomach, and perforce let go.I, all this time, with more discretion than valor, was bellowing like the bull of Bashan for the rope, being very much afraid that if the horns should get unlocked, some one would get gored.I had had time to observe conditions whilst matters were progressing thus far, The fight had evidently been going on for some hours over an area of about an acre; the slight snow fall was trampled in all directions and strewn with blood and hair.The beast on the ground was dead, its neck having been broken.He\u2019d been dead some time too, for he was getting cool, After a few minutes we managed to pass the rope under the buck\u2019s belly, and to take a couple of half hitches round its fetlocks.Having done that, it was no great job to throw him on his side like a steer for the brand.Then followed the worst part of the whole episode.We had no gun of any description with us\u2014not even an axe, and we had slowly to saw through the poor brute's jugular with a small penknife! The whole party supped off venison steak that evening, and suffered all the penalties usual to eating \u201cheated\u201d meat, DESTRUCTION OF DEER BY WOLVES.ARRY PHILLIPS, of Bisco D Lake, the well-known and popular guide, writes to his friend, Jack Miner, of Kingsville, Ont., on the subject of the destruction of the deer by wolves, and his remarks, coming from a man of practical experience in the matter, is worthy of consideration.He says: \u2014 \u201cI have had a big time this fall and winter with the wolves.Between shooting and trapping I got three before snow came, but I have only got two since.With poison I have killed at least three or four others that I did not get on account of big snow storms coming on after the wolves took the bait, making it impossible to track them for any distance.I may find some when the snow goes off.They are getting thicker all the time, and they have driven all the caribou out of this part of the country,\u2014all \u2018except what they have eaten up, and now they are eating up the red deer by the wholesale, If they keep on the way they have been for the last two years, there will be no deer left this side of the railroad.There is only one way to even thin those wolves out, and that is to raise the bounty for a few years to a price that will induce every man that hunts to hunt wolves, winter and summer, If the bounty was, say, $25, I would never give up the chase, and I know of others here that would do the same.Hunt them winter and summer, and it is my experience that for every one that is poisoned and the bounty got for it, there are two go off and dle in the woods and are lost, In \u201905 I poisoned two that I got, and I am sure I poisoned six or eight more and lost them through snow storms.still, I am glad I got rig of them, if I never get a skin, for two or three wolves will destroy more deer in a year than a large family of Indians.More than that, a wolf will watch hig chance to pick up every beaver he can.They catch them when the beaver is out at work.I say, raise the bounty.If possible, get rid of the wolf instead of the deer.\u201d « near Sherbrooke.\u201cape Se \" SCENIC BEAUTIES OF THE EASTERN TOWNSHIPS, QUEBEC\u2014A panoramic vista on the St.Fran cis River, (Photograph by Miss Lloyd, Sherbrooke.) a EE a EEE THE STANDARD, MONTREAL, CANADA.3 A Few Famous Beauty Spots Which in the Autumn Give Up Their Summer Visitors SCENIC BEAUTIES OF THE EASTERN TOWNSHIPS, QUEBEC \u2014 The Lake Brook at Frelighsburg.QUEBEG COULD BE STILL FURTHER BEAUTIFIED.N connection with the beautiful views of Quebec scenery shown on Pages 2 and 3 of The Standard it is interesting to note how much a country can be improved in the eyes of a stranger passing through by having the stations along the line of railway look as well as possible, Both the C.P.R.and the Grand Trunk systems have already done much along this line: \u2014 The movement to improve esthetically the appearance of the \u2018right of way and to beautify stations and their surroundings has made almost as rapid progress in recent years as have the forward movements for village improvement.All of the expenditures are on a strictly business basis.It pays to have a line of track bordered with well kept grass, for it rests the eyes of the passengers.It pays to erect up- to-date stations and waiting-rooms beautiful from an architectural and esthetic point of view, and to improve the grounds around them with trees shrubs and flowers.The passenger is aptto choose.that route again when travelling, and to recall the beauty of the roadside as part of the pleasure of the trip.Perhaps railroads are not such \u201csoulless corporations\u201d after all.At any rate, the public pleasure is now ministered to in a marked degree.RR XX XX Simple Building Wreathed in Vines.Money is required for this, it is true; yet a station need not possess the magnificence of the New York and St.Louis structures to be beautiful.Many a simple building wreathed in vines and surrounded with grass has remained in the traveller's memory as indicative of the pleasure experienced in travelling over a certain road; and often a road has gained patronage simply by a little effort on the part of the directors to see that its line has been beautified.Instead of considering this a Utopian dream or the fad of an Idealist, prominent railroads feel that they need their landscape architect almost as much as their engineer of maintenance of way.Something is being done to counteract the indifference to artistic effect manifested in so many cases by American railroads, and those who travel extensively are impressed with the growing attention paid by certain roads to this improvement.By an odd coincidence three railroads in the United States started to improve their grounds at about the same time, and each can claim the honor of being the pioneer in the movement.The Pennsylvania ,the Old Colony System, and the Boston & Albany developed excellent plans of a somewhat conventional style, but the Old Colony only to a limited extent.Converting unattractive railroad grounds into (Photograph by J.H.Baker.)

and in this way the idea of improving the whole length of the road took shape.As Richardson, the architect, had recently designed new station buildings, it was decided that barren station yards should become a thing of the past.Soon Frederick Law Olm- SCENIC BEAUTIES OF THE EASTERN TOWNSHIPS, QUEBEC \u2014 Frelighsburg from the west.pretty parks and lovely lawns was first undertaken for the Pennsylvania Railroad by Superintendent A.B.Starr, who was anxious to beautify the right of way.Noticing that Agent R.W.Hutchinson, of Jack\u2019s Run Station, had done this to the grounds around Lig little depot, Mr, Starr wisely concluded that a man who showed such taste and had ambition to improve his company\u2019s property was the man to become superintendent of parks.This was fourteen years ago.To-day, as head of all the floral work done on this great system, Mr.Hutchinson has transformed barren ground into grassy slopes and has caused sodded banks to take the place of rocky side-cuts.The propagating houses for this vast work are at Sewickley station, and here are raised thousands of plants for the Pennsylvania, Fort Wayne, and Pan- Handle routes.Mr.Hutchinson has the co-operation of the engineer of maintenance; and from the modest beginning at Jack\u2019s Run the floral plans have increased so that every station is considered worthy of recognition.A corps of men is busy keeping grass and shrubbery in good condition and laying out beds in decorative designs.At many stations the name appears in variegated plants; and unique designs, such as the Stars and Stripes in their true colors, greet the eyes of passengers, Fortunately for the public, when the Boston & Albany Railroad started to give attention to beautifying surroundings, it decide to carry out the unique feature of the so-called Newton Circuit, a short strip of roadway, pretty and clean, which circles Boston, stopping at twenty or more stations so near together that there is often only a mile between.This affords a picturesque view of rolling country and little towns noted for their attractiveness.The story of ornamenting this strip of road is interesting as showing how one man can keep the wheel in motion until a whole corporation becomes interested.A number of years ago E.A.Richard- (Photograph by J.H.Baker.) sted was engaged to prepare plans for the grounds, the Newtonville baggage- master was promoted to the position of superintendent of grounds, and the present attractive railroad circuit took form, A trip on this road discloses many with Red and with Gold.wide stretches of sumac gladden the eye in places, and little stations peer out suddenly from concealment behind beautiful bushes.At Woodlands a little pond is on the company\u2019s property, and the treatment of this shows how a skilful system of gardening may produce beauty the year round, even in winter.One station is covered with Japanese ivy, clumps of syringa border the carriage drive, and even the tool-house is hidden in foliage.Seen from a car-window the effect is charming, and the idea has been so successful that other roads have patterned after it.XR RE XR Annual Floral Competition.Another road noted for its beautiful station grounds is the Boston & Maine.This railroad has adopted the unique idea of an annual floral competition among its station agents, and both public and agents are deriving benefit from it.On the one hand the competition results in an outdoor display pleasing to the eye and artistic sense, and on the other it awakens a healthful spirit of rivalry and stimulates a love for the beautiful.Every division of the system and every branch is represented in the competition, and many States are interested in the prizes.An examining committee, selected by the management, travels many miles, considers fully many fine points in connection with the comparative merits of the displays, and discharges responsibilities almost as important as those waiting upon more serious affairs in iife.Seven prizes are given, ranging from fifty to five dollars; hundreds of stations receive yearly the sixth and seventh numbers, and the list of those that receive the larger prizes is too long to mention.\u2018Waltham and Ar- lington, both in Massachusetts, have SCENIC BEAUTIES OF THE EASTERN TOWNSHIPS, QUEBEC \u2014 Scene on Pike River, Frelighsburg.beauties; the very telegraph poles are hidden with vines and shrubbery, tall trees line the track sides, and bridal- wreath, wild roses, and shrubs blooming most of the year give charm to the whole length of road-bed.Some of the stations have park-like entrances, with stone arches stretching over the carriage drives.No bill boards or advertisements are allowed to mar the view, FOR DIVERS REASONS SMOKE hy PURE EGYPTIAN CIGARETTES.== Z Tz = Rares R= = ps 7 Da \u2014\u2014\u2014 ge 7 2) FRE = AE 2, 1% )y, 5) Dm = UN pe 1 A ENT PP) = Zz 7 7) 0° (Photograph by J.H.Baker.) proving its whole length and removing fences.The Pere Marquette road has finely decorated station grounds;

while near the buildings proper are conventional designs of verbenas, cannas, and castor- bean plants.Other displays which provoke admiration in passengers are well-groomed lawns bordered with cannas and zinnias, triangular flowerbeds, bow-knot beds of asters and star-shaped beds.Prettiest of all are the salvia-lined driveways and the neatly kept name of the station done in flowers.At Lynn a magnificent cataract of ivy falls over a granite retaining wall, a delight to all who pass that way.Inspired by these prominent examples, other roads are taking up the work.One road in Indiana is im- SCENIC BEAUTIES OF THE EASTERN TOWNSHIPS, QUEBEC \u2014 The summit of \u201cThe Pinnacle,\u201d 2,512 fet above the sea.(Photograph by J.H.Baker.) the station proper, and to shield the other buildings with banks of shrubbery and foliage.These roads have erected some handsome and artistic buildings.Re x2 XR Improvements on Atlantic Coast.Turning again to the Atlantic coast we find the Seaboard Air Line which runs from Portsmouth, Virginia, to Atlanta, Georgia.A few years ago this road changed hands.The new management, in order to attract people to the pine regions along its line, devised the original plan of appointing an industrial agent.Among the suggestions, it was proposed to form a vil- tage Improvement association in each city and hamlet along the route, and to make object lessons of their station grounds.Mrs.Eugenia B.Heard was invited to visit all of the towns and organize associations, A woman of prominence, whose home is at Rose Hill, Middletown, Georgia, the headquarters for the travelling libraries this road sends out, she acceded to the request; soon whitewash decorated fences, trees and buildings along the route.The road started one hundred agricultural farms and put men from agricultural colleges at their head, these farms being for the benefit of the farmers, with no money accruing to the road.It introduced twelve cars which it called \u201cschools on wheels.\u201d These are sent out with twelve in- struetors, who stop at all the stations to teach the people in all useful arts, from handling improved dairy apparatus and using road rollers to cooking bread and fancy dishes.The road carries many passengers to and from the South.As a result of the management's endeavors they look cut of the car-windows upon green grass bordering the road-bed, they stop at pretty stations surrounded with flowers and shrubs, they travel past farms kept by thrifty owners, and through villages where streets are clean.The vim and vigor of station agents along this line are also worthy of recording.For example, the agent of East Arcadia, a village of a little over one hundred inhabitants, not only finds time to act as librarian, ticket agent, freight and express agent, but she keeps such a pretty garden that several times she has won valuable prizes from the road, RR *æ XR Station Adornment to Be Considered.The station-adornment idea deserves the hearty encouragement of all who believe in the inspiration of the beautiful in life.Persons who travel extensively greet with pleasure the delightful oases which serve to relieve the sombreness that must of necessity mark (Photograph by J.H.Baker.) A the surroundings of the average station.To look out on redbuds, dogwoods, crab-apples, catalpas, tulips, magnolias, evergreens, fruit and nut- trees in foliage or in bloom makes a restful break in a railway journey which at best must be somewhat tedious to most of the railroad\u2019s patrons.The floral attractions soothe the mind of the traveller and put to shame the vulgar and hideous advertisements with which so many fences and buildings are disfigured.Much of this flower work is done for the love of it, not from the desire to win prizes.Even in large and busy stations, where there is little opportunity to grow flowers and shrubs, something has been accomplished in toning down the severity of the surroundings.There are cases where simple squares of green turf preach more eloquently the gospel of the beautiful than the far more elaborate and gorgeous display in the gardens of millionaires.This railroad work is doing great good in elevating the public taste, setting higher standards for environment, and advertising communities to which the railroad is the doorway.\u2018While the material benefits are many, it is of greater importance that the face of the country is changed, travelling becomes a pleasure, good impressions are carried to other shores, and our whole country assumes a new beauty to the dweller and the stranger who tarries within our gates.4 9 a GREED OF THE MASKINONGE.A fine maskinonge was killed in the Ottawa river not far from Hull lately.Its captor was trolling for pickerel with a bare spoon and was greatly surprised when he received a tug which nearly wrenched his arm out, followed by.the peculiar shake and rush which told that a genuine old stager had taken hold.There was a good half hour of vigorous playing done before the big fellow could be brought near enough to the boat to be killed.It weighed 29 pounds and was exactly four feet in length over all.Another fine fish, which measured half a foot more in length, was taken a few miles higher up the river.It weighed 35 pounds.This one was taken in the orthodox manner, that is, upon a large spoon bait, with a triangular bit of pork on the hooks.In both of these cases no attempt was made to get the mate, which was probably close by.It is seldom that the fish are to be found cruising alone.They tell a tale around Hull of a splendid pair of these giants being caught upon one set of hooks in Lake Deschenes.The spoon was armed with a triple set of large hooks hung by a swivel from the line in such a manner that they trailed in the water about half way down the spoon.At the tail end the usual gang of hooks wag attached with the bit of pork.SCENIC BEAUTIES OF THE EASTERN TOWNSHIPS, QUEBEC \u2014 A beautiful panorama of foliage and water on the Pike River, above.Frelighsburg.(Photograph by J.H.Baker.)

The skirt itself was a modified circular, close at the top.Down the centre front was a tapering box- pleat four inches wide at the belt by eight at the bottom, the pleat taking in the tucked

expected to contribute one good play; but as all his plays for the next five years have been sold to Charles Frohman, outside managers cannot secure anything from him for next season naturally.The same state of affairs exists in regard to Henry Arthur Jones.Robert Marshal, Haddon Chambers, and Sydney Grundy have not been successful for the last two years with their plays, and not much can be

back.It was made of the blue braid set so closely together that it concealed the foundation.This belt was attached to the coat.There were serge revers turned back from the cloth vest, the widest part of the revers being a little above the waist line; from that point they slanted down abruptly to the belt, while they tapered upward gradually to the blue velvet collar,braided heavily with the blue cord.This collar was narrow at the back, widening out into revers, the lower and outer corners of which extended over the bust toward the sides, slanting upward at the inside edge to within an inch and a half of the coat\u2019s fronts, and then tapering downward again to the edge, where the braided serge revers met them.The sleeves were full coat sleeves, ending a little below the elbows, and having two velvet points overlapping each for cuffs.A smart little tailored costume that arrived some ten days ago from abroad for a modish New York woman, shows the round length skirt and a tight

waistcoat effect in satin-finished cloth of a lighter shade than the dark check of the material, and the lower edge is slashed up a bit.The vest is a bit loose in the centre front, or, rather, forms a loose section some five inches in all wide, an inch of which is covered by the half-inch projections of the checked coat.This loose waistcoat gives the straight effect in the front, and just below the waist line are two large buttons in a very dark shade \u2014\u2014\u2014 of velvet edged with cloth rims matching the waistcoat.The buttons are only an inch apart.The waistcoat has stitched edges, and

House Gown In Crepe de Chine.The sleeves end a little below the elbows, and are moderately full puffs, finished by cuffs of the cloth, finished, in their turn, at the bottom by tapering revers of the dark velvet edged with the light cloth.The cuffs are so cut that the inside slopes out over the back at the outside of the arm, and two buttons, smaller but otherwise similar to those on the waistcoat, are set on the slope of each cuff.A simple model for an afternoon front there is a rosette matching those on the panel.The bodice has the crepe de chine draped over a tight-fitting foundation.The crepe is cut on the bias, is shirred on the shoulders, and the bias folds are then draped in surplice fashion in both the front and the back.The un- der-arm sections of the bodice are cut separately and are fulled only the merest trifle.The bias pieces are so draped as to leave an open V-shaped neck, having fine white lace a couple of inches wide set under the edge.This last is lined by a bias strip of hydrangea blue chiffon, a fold of tulle of the same color finishing its edge.Where the V ends in the front there is one of the satin rosettes.Between the outer edges of this surplice-shaped fichu, if that it may be called, is a band of heavy white lace matching the skirt panel.This lace widens out over the shoulders, extending an inch or more beyond \u201cJack\u201d: A

bottom, being finished at the latter point by a six-inch hem.At the top it is gathered ever so slightly, just enough to give a slight fullness where needed.In the front there is a panel effect, as the front breadth is slashed from top to bottom, and the edges are turned under to form four-inch hems or wide pleats.The six-inch space between is filled by a seven- inch insertion of heavy white lace over wide satin ribbon matching the crepe de chine in hue.Three flat rosettes of the satin ribbon are fastened down the centre of the panel, the upper one being eighteen inches below the waist line, the lower six inches from the skirt\u2019s lower edge, and the middle, of course, being half way between.The girdle is a shaped affair of the satin matching the gown, and forms a downward point in

perhaps, the most interesting subject of all.Large, clear blue eyes denote a ready and great capacity, also sensibility of character, but their owner is difficult to manage, jealous, inquisitive, and fond of enjoyment.Deep- seated eyes receive impressions accurately, definitely, and deeply.Round-eyed persons live much in the senses, but are not great thinkers, although they see much.Nar- row-eyed people see less, but think more, and feel with greater intensity.Now as to color.The hazel-eyed woman never tells too much or too little, never descends to scandal, prefers her husband\u2019s comfort to her own, and is shrewd, intellectual, and loving.Great thinkers have grey eyes, for grey is the color of talent and shrewdness, but these generally indicate a better head than heart.Green eyes betoken courage and pride.Black eyes show a peppery disposition.me Bargain Sales in Montreal What to Buy, and What to Leave !

prices that seem most tempting.Are they worth the price asked?Every shop of reputation which carries, of necessity, a large stock of silk, finds at the end of a season an accumulation of short ends, and of silks that, for some reason or another, have not sold as readily as the silk-buyer expected.The beginning of every season brings new goods, and as the successful merchant never weighs down his business with the burden of dead stock, he turns the unsold goods Into money at less than cost, probably; but ready money is always preferable to out-of-date goods.From merchants of known relj- ability it is always safe to buy their reputation being a guarantee that the silks are as represented.Other shopkeepers, however, are quick to note the bargain silk germ in the shopping atmosphere.These gather, from any source, the odds and ends of good or of any quality, and hold a silk sale.The dressmakers of experience, and shoppers accustomed to buying and handling silks, pass these bargain tables without a second glance; but it is here that the casual buyer\u2014the woman who can only afford, perhaps, one silk or silk- lined dress a year\u2014is very likely to think she sees a chance to economize.She buys the undependable stuff, only to find, after short wear, that her money was thrown away.Many of the so-called \u2018\u2018silks\u2019\u2019 are really mixtures of silk and cotton.The prospective purchaser would do well to unravel the end of the piece of silk.and examine the threads of both warp and the woof.The difference between the two threads may readily be recognized by both sight and touch.RP Cod RR Another Trashy Grade of Silk.Another trashy grade of \u2018\u2018silk\u2019\u2019 is the kind that for one reason or another will crack and split at the seam and fold.This kind will usually reveal itself if it is stretched tightly across between the forefingers of both hands, holding it firmly with the thumbs.A very little strain will show the coming of the cracks, and it will often split in the hand under this test.Creasing the silk between the thumb and finger will often reveal the splitting quality.A good silk should smooth out again, leaving no trace of the creasing.One more thing to be remembered in handling silks, be it in the piece or make up, and that is that good silk has a certain length of life, and it will make no difference if it is worn or laid away most carefully, when its allotted time comes, it will go to pieces from age.So, if you would have the good of your silks, wear them. ll NSE eCOeOOA SII iE FL No N ~ ILLUSTRATED
