Friday of each week. Exceptions will be allowed only in cases where events occur biter than the tlmo montloncd.) THE UPPER ROOM. IN my house of life Is an upper room, A small and garnished place. And there I dreamed In the mist gray Bloom, And I looked my soul In the face. (O upper room with your dreams where I Lot my friends, unwept, go passing by!) Once Love tried the door, and a child's voice came I heard It through my prayers But the door was barred when they called my name, And the steps went down the stairs (And yesterday at the door I found A toy and a rose trampled on the ground). And my prayers were heard, for with toll my lioijo lias grown, though empty, great. And from my upper room I see Crowds gathered around my gate (From my upper room with Its dream") where 1 (Let the loveless years go passing by). I have fought my light. Hark! They bring the prize! I havo won I hao won the race! But I sit and 1 dare not lift my eyes To look my soul In the face (For yesterday at the door 1 found A toy and a rose trampled on the ground). Mary Roberts lUnehart. 5 IN THE true sense of the word dress Is not a weakness of woman. It has become, after generations of encouragement, a mania. Though she may be exemplary and Bweet in every other respect, she will resort to the most petty kind of de celt to procure raiment that will make her the envied of the rest of her sex. She will out up with Incom petent help and toil unnecessarily herself to add the few dollars differ ence in wages to her dress allowance. Sho will cut down on her table and worf(y herself sick compiling pre sentable menus that allow of the re duction of the butcher's and grocer's bills; bon add the miserable sum to the clothes item! She will waste hours of valuable tlmo at a milliner's trying to decide whether a feather should bo placed at an angle of forty-five or slx(y de grees, and she will tramp her feet full of callous spots looking for somo thing somo one will think she paid $25 for when In reality it cost only ?18. She says she knows men like sim ple clothes, therefore she Is about to clotho herself simply. The man is overjoyed at the prospect of "cheap simplicity;" tho rude awakening Is when ho finds that simplicity, when applied to woman's dress, is a most extravagant luxury! When he puts his foot down on the futheranco of the "simplo wave," she says, "Oh, that's right, find fault; you don't know an artistic creation when you see one. I suppose- you wouldn't cars If 1 went around in a bathing suit all day! And though tho man thinks de cidedly that a bathing suit is a far more bano garment than those with which sho is wont to adorn her per son, ho wisely keops silent. Then, just for spite, sho goes off and buys a gotup that gives her tho appearance of an overtrlmmed lampshade! Tho longth of tlmo sho takes to dress Is proverbial and has been bread and meat to all tho comic pa pers in existence for decades, but tell her that a garago is on lire ncross tho streot and that they fear terrific ex plosions In a fow minutes and sho will don tho same number of clothes, look just as chnrming and havo a mlnuto or so to her credit at tho ond. Thon let tho poor desk-chnlned husband suggest a new suit! He finds that sho has very decided views on that subject. First that when tho stylo in men's cUthing does chaugc, tho chnngo Is so slight Unit no one knows whether he has a new suit or not. That tho principal thing about mon's clothing Is that tliey should bo woll prossod and that ho has every Sunday morning to press them. Tho mou'B clothes take up so much room in tho closots because tho matorlnl Is o heavy. Ail this and more ho lonrns about wearing ap parel of Ills own ax within fifteen minutes Then, one day whon ho sneaks into a clothier's and blows himself to a suit that looks just like his old oue, without the well seasoned shlno, ho comes home vainglorious at his docoptlon, and is spotted before ho gotB his ovorcoat off! So, nftor years of study we have .'$ tfWm come to tho conclusion that one of the strongest props that the heredity theory has Is woman and her Insati ate mania DRESS! Miss Isabella Johnson of San Fran cisco arrived this week for a short visit with Mrs. J. Albert Matson, Miss Mary Black and other friends on the Bay.
