There Is no doubt that the play marks an

best she has ever had.

more plentiful than soap. It wouldn't,

H. Margaret, look! Isn't that
the prettiest thing we have
seen yet!"
The two young girlish faces
were so full of Interest that
though my name was not Margaret, I
felt the call was for me and looked with
Interest It was a charming thing that
attracted their attention. One of the
new Ideas In neckwear, an Inch wide bit
of rich brown velvet to pass around
the neck, cross In the back, bringing
two ends to hang down each side of the
front or to knot In a careless loop a
few inches below the chin. In front at
the throat was a beautifully worked
gold slide set with yellow topaz, and
each end was finished with a similar
sl.de with pendant ends of gold. The
wonderful yellow lights were made
brilliant by the golden brown velvet,
and I did not wander that the two girls
lingered over the lovely thing.
"I am going straight home and make
one," said she that was called Margaret
"Oh, you need not look as If I had lost
my mind. Don't you remember the
lovely old set of breastpin and earrings
that belonged to mother when she was
a girl? It Is set with amethyst and
bas Just such funny dingle dangles to
the earrings as those slides. 1 11 put
them on bits of violet velvet and wear
the beauty either with white or with
my pale lavender crepe, for evening.
It'll be as pretty as this."
"What a dandv idea!" responded the
Yrlend with a look of admiration. "My
mother has a set of garnets. 1 wonder
if I couldn't use them?" .
She was evidently one of those who
are alwaya looking for help to carry
out ideas. The other girl seemed to be
the one who save. It is always the way.
Watch emir friends a little and vou will
see that the world is made up of those
who lean and those who are leaned upon,

not nimble fingers,' matched with nimble
wits, and so nnds the secret ot Knot
and tie and makes the- dainty accesso
ries that mean so much to a touet
The latest thing in neckwear seems to
be the dainty ties that are flung around
the neck and tied In a careless Knot
about six Inches below the chin. They
serve no purpose but the.t of ornament
as the neck must be fully dressed with
out the tie. A simple one to wear over
colored toilets to give the note of black
so Indispensable, is made of a scant
yard of velvet ribbon, half an inch wide.
The ends are turned into a point and
finished with black tassels. This may
be worn with a high turn-over collar
and then It is tied in loopa and ends at
the throat. It Is also worn with light
colored or white thin waists and tied
as described abov. The same idea,
carried out In gold braid and a gay
tinsel tassel is pretty with all black
costumes. For wear with the lin
gerie waists that are always with us,
no matter what the weather, I saw a
tie crocheted In a loose open mesh, each
mesh containing a picot. The tie was
an Inch wide and not more than three-
?uarters of a yard long. The ends were
inished with fancy wheels In crochet

be bought at any shop where they, sell

not only new, but the one used as a
model had cost three times as much as
the materials, so one girl had. as she
laughingly said, "made money." The

And have you been watching the
sashes? A sash, when some of us
were girls, meant a lovely wide stiff
bit of ribbon tied in two equal loops at
the back of the waist and with lovely
iioating enas mat xiiieo tne imau
cockv little girl's soul with joy.
But that isn't what a sash means
now by any means. The result as far
as the soul la concerned may .be the
same, but the sash is "another story.
The ribbon is soft and crushable, not
very wide and the ends are either
fringed heavily straight across, or di
vided into v two or three soft shirred
points, each of which is finished with
a taaael. and there are do loops.
Sometimes it ia passed around the
waist crossed at the back ana tiea low
on the right side in front When this
is done a hidden hook and eye holds the
aoft girdle securely.
Either black velvet or satin ribbon
are the favorites If a contrast is need
ed. With a colored dress the sash is
selected of the same shade. The shops
show many beautiful figured and print
d ribbon, but you must not allow your
self to be beguiled with their lovely
coloring, as they are decidedly passe
at present. Styles are never prettier.
The lines of hats and dresses are sim
pler and more flowing than they have
been for years and-while the dlrectolre
dress has been much ridiculed and made
obnoxious by those who have gone to
extremes, the wise girl follows the
rasnion at a distance rax enougn on
to get tne ngnt perspective and rinas
beauty and charm in Its long sweeping
lines. Big hats sre still worn and some
of them look like caricatures, while
others are very charming. Any face
can find a becoming hat among the
wide diversity of shapes shown if
good taste and Judgment are used.
There's the rub. So many girls look
for the latest and most extreme style
to the exclusion of suitability and ba
comingness. The well-dressed girl is
one who Is well balanced enough to
walk the narrow line that divides the
out of date garments from the ultra
fashionable and touches neither ex
treme. Men and women may not turn
to look at her In the street as they
would If she wore the biggest hat the
milliner shows or the tightest dress the
dressmaker can persuade her to wear,
but neither will they wear the amused
and disgusted smile that is on the face
of the passer-by as the travesty of style

tnrrels of cement have been used in
the canal work.
The work of excavation is done for
the most part by 101 steam shovels.
The shovels have an average outnut
of 901 cubic yards per day, or 25,-
16.1 cubic yards per month. The shovels
have a working day of eight hours.
The quartermaster's department is re
snonslhln for the riallverv nf fnnA im
plies on the Isthmus. During the hot
spell In the month of June the coid
storage plant shipped 5.608.283 pounds
or supplies in 38.309 packages.
The isthmus, though a comparatively
ordeily place, is orderly only with the
protection of an efficient police. The
monthly list of arrests usually gets up
to 600. and the idea of disorder is in
creased by the fact that from 30 to 60
of the prisoners are women.
Of the B.100 gold employes on the
Isthmus only 20S are women. The Isth
mian canal commission employs 187
utimen and the Panama railroad 18.
The average salary paid to the wo
me A emnloves is 173.86. The hlarhest
salary paid any woman on the Isthmus
is fi7b per monin, ana tne lowest xzb
a month.
There are approximately in tne isth
mus in the employ of the commission
and the Panama railroad 44,000 per
sons, of whom about 6.000 are Ameri
cans ' The normal working force each
day Is shown from the rolls of -July
1, when there were actually at work
30,611 employes 25,388 for the commis
sion and 6.153 for the railroad.

The government on the isthmus has
gone into , the washing business, with
an ' elaborate laundry and a drying
house for every ..working camp. The
drying houses, however, have nothing to
do with the laundry, being Intended for
the sole purpose of drying garments In
the rainy season of persona who were
obliged to work in the wet ; . . ;
Last June, aa a normal month both In
expenditures and rapidity of excavation,
may be taken aa typical. In that month
1,069,000 cublo yards were removed at a
total expenditure during the same time
of 12,894,600.66. Of this aum, however,
$1,646,602 waa spent on material and
supplies, and is contributed toward the
permanent fixtures of the sone. I
