, BREAKFAST AND TEA GOWNS FOR THE WINTER MONTHS 8 U w - jh v c r i . when tht fashlonabla maid or matron Is not on dress parade, aro shown In treat profusion and In as great a variety. atiAKmp Th woman, young or old. does not sxlst who does tVOVtl not delight In tho hour when she may attire herself In a bewitching and yet a loose gown. - Twice In every - twenty-four hours may thess much ruffled, much tace- bedecked garments be donned with perfect propriety. Breakfast gowns, tea gowns, gowns for milady's boudoir,, and smart jackets and coats to be worn Whlle the well-dressed woman usually comes to the breakfast table gowned for her club,, a lecture or a promenade, there are, now and again, mornings when she needs a perfect rest, and for such an occasion the long trailing lace-trlmmed gown is fitting. Between the dark and daylight tea gowns come out. while when lounging In her own sanctum, after a long day on the links or a hard walk, the charm ing jackets especially adapted for negligees are donned. ' In material these gowns are made of silks, satins, soft, dainty cloths, and ribbons and lace form a large part of their design. When lace is omitted, then the ever-becoming chiffon Is brought In play. Several things, however, are necessary In the con- blue crepe It- Is trimmed with bands of Persian embroidery,.- and a girdle ..of the same is tied loosely about tho -waist. ,Thejacket effect is also edged with the embroidery, and big, full sleeves of lace complete a handsome gown.',. While a mauve serge trimmed with white luce is less extravagant t in design and texture, still It is lovely In its simplicity... : 'This gown is to be worn at twilight, and Its full, long gracefulness comes from the shoulders. It is SMART f TtA - structloh'of a govn of thlsdesign it must, first of all, be in one piece; then long and loose, and, of all things, becoming. Beautiful Is a handsome breakfast gown of pale round at the neck, being filled In with Russian lace, and the big, flowing sleeves are also finished with It. For the frosty days when there Is a charm In red, a pretty, simple gown, was recently made. It has a Watteau back and U full in front from the bust, fitting In snugly over the hips. In lavender and white comes a pretty gown to lie worn while studying or writing. It Is finished with a ruffle at the bottom and about the sleeves, while the same simple trimming is upon the full, broad collars. Smart. Indeed, Is the Jacket of pink brocaded silk, trimmed with embroidered chffon 1 and lace. The Ri-AlsTAVr L esSaw Jacket is snug and short, with a deep flounce of the chiffon, and this, In turn, Is edged with Irish guipure. THE QUEEN OF SPAIN'S LOVE-STORY. The Spanish court has in the last few days supplied a bouquet of extraordinary stories of that peculiar luridness and improbability that we are accustomed to only in dispatches from Vienna and Shanghai the two centers, which, .since the death of the late Ananias, hold the record for fertility of invention. Tha point of these stories Ih the startling new light In which the King and the Queen . Mother, of Spain - are set fotjth to the " world; 'yet. when one' reflects on' the" Wild possibilities of the Happsburg Cfood. and Its past vagaries, one Is led to pause be fore discrediting the wtoole tale as a mere piece of sensational tjionsense. First, we are told that the Queen Mother, Maria Christina, whom we have been accus tomed to look on as a hy pietist, of a somewhat sour and Inhuman type. Is real ly a heroine of romance who would have wan the heart of Alexandre Dumas. Thr good lady Is declared to have fallen deep ly In love, when she' was a mere girl, with a certain Count de la BscosUrn. the two fervent hearts plighting an eternal troth. Then dire necessity overtook them: for the princess was compelled to make one of those reluctant marriages of State that take so much gilt off the royal gin gerbread; and the bitterness of separa tion had to be endured. After a long interval. It is said that the two severed hearts are once more Joined; the Queen, having discharged her .star duties in pro ducing and rearing an heir to the throne, has decided that It Is her turn now, and has morganatlcally married her count, so the story says, on her' recent visit to Austria.

A WARNING TO PROPHETS. ProphOejIf is a dangerous gift, and we submit" to S .number of estimable gentle men, of whom the Rev. pr.

It can serve no possibly good end to announce to the world that "unless the public necessity for coal be promptly relieved this city will witness lawlessness and anarchy." By just such unwise utterances as this are the seeds of lawlessness and anarchy sown. When a man of Dr. Siicer's po sition says that "in this city of l.too.000 Inhabitants you wilt find half a million who will refuse to tamely see their fam ilies suffer end die,' and continues to pre diet an uprising, hs clearly exceeds the limits of propriety, broad as is the li cense In speech Ordinarily permitted "to his cloth.

But he, the proud soul, laughing lightly, Looked up'where the sun was unrisen. And said, "I will slumber till daybreak."

With love in her eyes, run to meet him; Then he woke to a step In the doorway, "All night at thy feet lay thy wishes Now I take them," one said, and departed. Sharlot M. Hall, in November "Success."

After retiring at night, release body and mind from all tension, and take full and regular Inhalations through your nostrils; hold the breath about one sec ond; take all the tjme you can to exhale It; keep this up until you are weary or fHll asleep. 2. When you wake In the morning, repeat the exercise at least four or five minutes: longer, if time permits. 3 Dur ing the day take as many full respirations as possible, exercising care with the ex halations.

Again, a college course or sn ad vanced course of education develops facul ties which had lain dormant, perhaps from disuse. In other words, the entire setting of the mental faculties often changes a great deal during one's physical dominant at the outset of an education or a course of training may become sub ordinated by other faculties which have pushed themselves forward In the course of developments. N man should stick lo his last If he is convinced that he is In the wrong place and that there Is a possibility of satisfy ing his Inclination elsewhere. No "man should slick to his last, ir a change is possible, when he Is conscious that he is getting his living by his weakness Instead of his strength. No man should stick to his last, when to do so will tie him forever to commonness or mediocrity, If a larger.' fuller expres sion of life Is possible. No man should stick to his last when a better and higher way Is open to him. No man should stick to his last when he finds that to do so will cramp his better life and handicap his career.

Her August Majesty Tie His An, Dow ager Kmpress of China, and her worthy adopted son. his Imperial Majesty Kwang Hsu. offer a charming contrast to the angry passions of the Spanish royalties. Recently, to mark the renewal of per fectly good relations between China and the powers, the worthy Empress Dow ager gave a "ffink tea" to the ladles of the embassies and ministries at Peking, It Is reported thst her Celestial Majesty was-nrbanity 4iself; -tltese was something -even kittenish snd sprightly In her greet ing to her guests. This dear old lady, who was so universally anathematized only two years ago, and who was report ed by the veracious news-providers of Shanghai to have boiled two or three, ambassadors In oil or filled them up with melted lead, was decked, it seems, in a magnificent gown of blue silk, embroid ered with golden butterflies snd birds. Her hair was done in the Manchurlan fashion, with two huge bows, or butter flies at the side, and her smile was sweet snd winning. Emperor Kwang Hsu stood beside his adoptive mamma, sweet-tempered and affable, Ms olive face lit up with a playful smile. He allowed" the dear old lady to do all the talking, through a charming Chines damsel, the daughter of a former Chinese minister to Berlin, who speeks German and English fluently. The Dowager Empress wore JUid)fhetUM.h')es1,omewh4.fleesj:x. ., precaution, if. as js cseoioiy reported, rhe Is even shorter in stature than -was Queen Victoria, the two august ladles, who between them, governed half the human race, averaging something less than Ave fee tn height. -Most amusing wits the end-nf thle reception, for -the -Dowager retired t her bedroom, taking two of her lady guest with her, and all Ihree-oUmhed into a huge bed: where, It is said, they played cst's cradles. This particularly delighted Kwang Hsu, who esme In while the game was going on. Altogether, these royal personagee, the world over, are very much in the publld evi. in thl so-called twentieth century.- Harper's Weekly.
