The mother-vein of truth Is found In

Nothing Is harder to forgive than for

Self-conceit Is the main spring of a

The cultivation of the heart spares

If wc are not humble toward God, wo

Wo shall not stop lying In our pray

A Ruio Without a Thorn.
It Is said there are some people who
complain thnt rosen have thorns, while
'many more aro grateful that thorns
produce roses.
In the gardens of Gunnersbury house,
Acton (the resldenco of Mr. Leopold do
Rothschild), there Is a rose, probably of
tho Bourbon race, free 'growing and
free blooming, though In n shaded spot,
which Is absolutely thornless. Its nume
Is Zepberln Droulin, and It Is of conti

New Flannel Waists that Are Almost

ones of recent
years. Tho latest

In box pleats, the

are not as dainty
as are the white. Plaid flannel waists
again are scon and are more beautiful
than ever. Nearly all arc made plain
or with a few tucks at the neek, button
ing down the front-and finishing with the
shirt waist sleeve. Corduroy and velvet
een are used, too, many of the former
showing tho yoke back and front. Some
flannel waists arc tucked at the neck to
almost the bust, the lower part being
embroidered.
Such of theso waists as aro worn with
SAMPLES FROM THE
new tailor gowns have full need of elab
orateness, for most tailored gowns nre
much embellished. This year's simplest
model that has any stylishness Is repre
sented by to-day's Initial. About Its skirt
nnd Jacket was enough stitching to count,
two years ago, as entire trimming, hut
now there must bo some re-epforccment,
and hero it came In white silk rovers em
broidered lu delicate green. Havana
brown homespun was tho material, but
that signifies little, as such gowns are
seen In all tho stylish solid color goods.
For tho next degree of elaborateness,
turn to the second figure of the next pic
ture. Here was a gown of dull red (inc
line, the skirt finished with circular
rufllei, the bolero arranged in Inch tucks.
Deep collar anil rcrers were white cloth
embroidered In black and silver. Still
greater elaborateness Is found In tho
dress to the right of this In tho picture.
Here mixed brown aud green cheviot
was, in the skirt, cut in layers and fin
ished with stitching. Stock, Jabot, belt
nnd sleeve puffs were hunter's green vel
vet, and supplied a color contrast thnt
was extremely rich. Very often this
CHARACTERISTIC
touch of contrast comes la the waist,
plaids being relied on for colors, but a
deal of white being seen and counting as
newly stylish, especially in cloths and
flannels.
While loose raglan coats are to be worn
extensively during winter, many short
tailor Jackets are shown, Aiuajorltjr of
m
iff
them arc double breasted or in box effect
and have lapels of dull black silk. Dark
blue, brown nnd black seem to bo favor
ite colors, the lighter cloths being used
mainly for the loose affairs. The short
Jackets arc made very short, and the
sleeves show no gathers at the top. Many
coats like that shown in to-day's second
Illustration nrc seen, the general model
promising to be one of the season's mark
ed fashions. This example was oyster
cloth, with stitching to match and with
lining of green nnd pink dresden silk.
Long clonks and loose cnPea secm t0
grow more elaborate each week. Many
nre now seen trimmed wltlulnce nnd fur,
the upper part sometimes laid In tiny
tucks, lllack velvet beautifully applt
qued with black taffctn nnd wide black
silk braid Is made up In long clonks and
capes. The newest raglans are three
quarter length and hare double shoulder
capes. They are strapped with panne
velvet matching the cloth or n shade
darker.
Tucking and pleating are by no means
exhausted as n means of dress ornament
ation, but this season's nre wider than
were those of a year ago. Much less of
finely tucked or pleated cloth Is seen,
though the stylishness of goods thus
treated Is by no means gone. Thus the
bodice at the right In the concluding pic
ture was pleated all around, and the skirt
was laid In tiny pleats at the waist.
Cream lace finished sleeves and collar, tho
belt and bows being green velvet. More
assertive in Its newness were the deep
tucks In the gown opposite tlds In the pic
ture. Hero the material was delicate tan
broadcloth, embroidery lu silver on whlto
satin and black velvet for belt being oth
er details. Much black velvet appears as
dress trimming, much more than one
would have thought possible nftcr duo
consideration of how long such garniture
has been stylish. Yet after examination
of many model dresses the shopper feels
almost justified In saying that no gown

Perhaps It Is bccaiuo trimmings may
be used in profusion thnt so few gowns
combine two materials. Of course there
are such dresses, 'but they are fewer than
usual, though stylish enough. One of
them is put in the center of this sketch.
Its materials were striped black and
white silk, the flounces white crepe do
chluo edged with black chiffon frilling.
Stock, belt and tabs were black velvet,
and the bertha was crepe de chlno em
broidered in gold. A few examples of
combining silk and cloth are seen, hut
there is more of mating velvet nnd silk
and still more of velvet and cloth.
Fancy neckwear grows more elaborate,
nnd la to be the swagger thing with
flannel and silk waists. The barb tie is
to be worn either tied In a tiny bow un
der the chin or fastened with stick pin
nnd hanging in long ends. Real laco and
many beautiful patterns In imitation
laco will be seen. Chiffon, crepe-de-chlne,
net, soft silks and liberty satin are all
employed in these neck pieces. Many

porlty than at any time slnco Its
original romarkably successful tour,
and tho many Interesting features
wero accorded tho same enthusiastic
greeting ns upon tho occasion of the
first visit of tho play. "In Old Kon.
tucky" Is now upon Its ninth nnnunl
tour of tho country, and thus far
this season tho receipts have ex
ceeded thoso of any llko period In tho
history of tho play.
