Dainty Apron

embroidered apron. It would be espe­
cially useful for “ a Bhower g ift" for

It one of the treasure* of her lavender

effective trifle about one and one-half
yards of finest lawn Is required. This
will make the apron and allow for the
pocket and bib, which are both made
In the shape of enormous blossoms.
Six yards of Valenciennes lace will
make the dainty frilling, which should
be carefully whipped to the button-

HREE hats of excellent design are
shown for those who are wearing
mourning. It will be noticed that
the shapes are small or moderate in
size, that the designs are simple but
the workmanship Intricate and beau­
tiful. These characteristics are what
the wearer should look for when pur
chasing mourning millinery.
The first hat. a small round turban
with rolling brim. Is made of tiny
folds of crape laid In parallel rows on
circles about them or four Inches In
diameter. These are applied to the
crown and brim which bave

and lined with silk and the hat Is
finished with a wired bow of taffeta
A rolled border of crape sometimes
binds the edges of such bows and
makes a very handsome finish for the
ornament.
Fig. 2 shows a moderately large flat

T
Slight Carelessness or Lack of Prepar­
ation Sufficient to Mar the
Result.
When lace and beading are to be
sewed to thin materials, such as mus­
lin dresses or underwear of any kind.
It must be carefully and thoroughly
done to produce good results. Lace
edging nearly always has a stout
thread In the selvedge which serves
adtalrably as a gathering thread. Pull
this thread and stroke the gathers to
make them even. Roll the edge of the
material and, holding the lace and
edge together with the thumb and fore­
finger of tne leit hand, with the lace
nearest you, overcast the two together
with firm even stitches. When sewed
to a straightedge Insertion can be
sewed In exactly the same manner, but
to let Insertion In, to form a design,
first baste the material on the right
hide to *orm the desired design, and !
hem It down on both edges. Cut the
material from underneath the Inser­
tion, leaving a narrow strip on each
side of the InsertloL. Crease this
strip back from the Insertion toward
the material and turn as for a hem.
Overhand this, taking stitches close to
the line of the hemming.
Healthy Girls.
It Is not longer fashionable with the
fair sex to feign delicacy, nor are the
girls of the coming generation actuat­
ed by an Insane desire to appear frag­
ile and genteel, at the expense of
health. The scores of buxom, bright-
eyed young ladles one will meet In any
of our public thoroughfares any after
noon Is ample evidence of the truth of
the assertion, says Woman's Life. No
longer do the fair ones seem wan and
pale to look upon, nor Is their style of
locomotion suggestive of effort; but,
on the contrary, nearly all seem strong
and lithe of Umb, and with cheeks suf­
fused with the ruddy glow of health.
Doctors generally agree that there is
far less sickness among the sex than
had formerly been the case, and this
could be attributed solely to the
glorious practice young ladles hod of

James Ten Eyck, whose portrait Is
shown. 68 years old and father of the
first American winner of the Diamond
Sculls at Henley, and James Riley,
aged 63, holder of the world’s record
for two mile*. Tho race was witness­
ed by Saratoga’s smart set and the
horsewomen present for the season’s
races, and Mars Cassidy, the famous
Saratoga starter, sent Ten Eyck and
Riley away.
As one horseman re­
marked as the doughty oarsmen sent
their shells through the water: "It’s
dollars to doughnuts that Mars never
sent two stouter-hearted thoroughbreds
away from the barrier.”
Ten Eyck was the favorite In the
race, not because of the disparity of
five years in age, but because of the
fact that through coaching at Syra­
cuse university he has had to keep up
his profession since he ceased racing
himself, while Riley only rows occa­
sionally for his health.
For three-
quarters of the three mile course
Riley kept the bow of his shell on
even terms with his rival, but after
that Ten Eyck pulled away, finishing
six lengths ahead In 23:13%, while
Klley was clocked In 23:31.

Ten Eyck has a father 88 years old,
living at Fishklll Landing, who still
earns an honest dollar by rowing a ferry
across the Hudson river. Mrs. James
Ten Eyck was a sister of Ned Hanlan,
the famous sculler. Young Jim and
Ned, therefore, come from
famous
oarsmen on both side of the family.
Jim Riley was a world’s champion

In C a m b r i d g e ,
Mass., December
22, 1823. A grad­
uate of Harvard
In the class of 1841, he spent the
customary years in study for a
profession In which it Is prob­
able he was never likely to achieve
pre-eminent success, and graduated In
due season from the Divinity School.
It was evident that nature never in­
tended the future author and soldier
for the peaceful and uneventful paths
of theological work and ministerial
duty. In those early days he was more
at home In the ranks of the anti slav­
ery battalions, whose work it was to
prepare the way for the freedom of
thé negro In America.
At the outbreak of the Civil war

enlisted;
among them was Hig­
ginses, who was. In the early days of
the war, appointed colonel. He was
seriously wounded In a skirmish on
the Edisto river, and in October. 1864,
was honorably discharged from the
service, for disability.
Enthusiastic and distinguished ns i
soldier, still It is in the quiet and
peaceful pursuits of literature that
Hlgginson has achieved his widest and
fairest renown. Mr. Higginson’s ear­
liest recognition by the reading public
as an original and charming prose
writer was by means of a series of
essays contributed to the Atlantic
Monthly. They were afterwards col­
lected and published In 1862 under the
title Out-Door Papers.
As a writer of verse Higginfton Is
not so well known; it Is as an essay­
ist. historian and lecturer that he
stands pre-eminent. As regards the
latter accomplishment It may well be
questioned whether there are any pub­
lic speakers who have been so uni­
formly popular and delightful.
Mr. Hlgginson Is of Puritan descent;
his father, Stephen Hlgginson, was a
Boston merchant known, it Is said, by
reason of his charitable disposition
nnd philanthropic tendencies. He was
the sixth descendant of Rev. Francia
Hlgginson, an English clergyman, who
exchanged his easy berth In the bosom
of the old church for the hard life and
toilsome experiences of a New Eng­
land Puritan minister. He was set­
tled over the first parish in Salem and
In his day was not unknown as an
author.
HE CLAIMS RECORD FOR
WALKING UNDER GROUND
Samuel G. Smith,
who Is completing
a service of 31
continuous years
as chief guide In
the Luray (Va.)
Caverns, has prob­
ably traveled more
underground than
any other man in
the world. Esti­
mating his dally
underground wan­
derings
at
the
mines In that time
he has covered more than the earth a
circuit In the flicker of candles, the
electric lights' glrae and In almost
tangible blackness.
Allowing four
hours a day for his work underground
in that time he has spent more than
five continuous years in depths rang
lng from 50 to 200 feet below tons of
earth and stone.
The distance between New York nnd
London Is only an Insignificant begin­
ning of his ceaseless yearly rounds
mid stalactites and stalagmites. Every
object In the caverns, beheld In mute
wonder by thousands of visitors, is
commonplace to him. His yearly shoe
bill Is a considerable Hem. Now a
man threescore and ten, he has all the
time been possessed of unusual health,
attributable, he declares, to the salu­
brious atmosphere of his underground
home.
He Is a man of strong Imaginative
powers, and many of the names of
formations pointed out by subordinate
guides to visitors were suggested by
Mr. Smith. He has grown old In this
service, having been connected with
the caverns during the various owner­
ships. Nearly every arrest of person«
for defacing the caverns In that time
has been made by Mr. Smith, who Is
a sworn officer.
With all his experience In handling
great crowds of people he Is modest
and retiring, though knows no such
thing as fear. His Initial service for
the caverns was begun as a carpenter.

Lord Byron raised a subscription for
a monument to the poet to be placed
In Westminster Abbey. Chantrey was
requested to execute It, hut on ac­
count of the smallness of the sura
subscribed he declined, and Thorwald-

undertook the work.
In about 1838 the finished statue
arrived at the custom* house In Lon­
don. but to the astonishment of the
subscribers the dean of Westminster,
Dr. Ireland, declined to give permis­
sion to have It set up In the abbey,
and owing to this difficulty, which
proved Insurmountable, for Dr. Ire­
land's succeesor was of the same opin­
ion, It remained for upward of twelve
years In the customs house, when
(1846) It was removed to the library
of Trinity College, Cambridge.
The poet Is represented In the
statue of the size of life, seated on a
ruin, with his left foot resting on the
fragment of a column. In his right
hand he holds a style up to his mouth.
In his left a book. Inscribed "Chllde

He Is dressed In a frock
