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.

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!
