Father Time is not always a hard parent, and, though he tarries for none of his children, often lays his hand lightly upon those who have used him well, making them old men and women inexorably enough, but leaving their hearts and spirits young and in full vigor. With such people the gray head is but the impression of the old fellow's hand in giving them his bles sing, and every wrinkle but a notch in the quiet calendar of a well-spent life.

At the left corner of the mouth, and also on the right cheek near the ere, patches of black velvet were worn; the ensemble was old world and delightful. Velvet Patches Popular. These velvet patches are rapidly be coming a craze. They were introduced some months ago by a beautiful Pari sian woman who makes a specialty of her lovely white hair. She Is not in reality very gray, but at night she has her hair discreetly powdered and she always wears a patch or two. Our sketch shows a boudoir cap of another order.

' Flower Ornaments In Vogue. In one of my recent articles I spoke in detail of these curious flowers which are now so fashionable in Paris. They hardly deserve the name of flowers at absolutely unreal, in material. They are simply exotic ornaments which give a splen didly effective finishing touch to an elaborate costume, .'and they are worn at the waist or breast as though they were in reality flowers.- Sometlmes these ornaments take the form of conventional roses In vivid colors and with strings of tiny dia monds veining the petals and leaves; sometimes they represent water lilies in black velvet. Sometimes they are like sunflowers In shape, but carried out In green or vermilion velvet They were Invented by one of the most eclectic couturleres in Paris as an ef fective final note for clinging robes of tulle or embroidered chiffon and for this purpose they are having an ex traordinary success. Parisian hostesses take special pride In searching out or Inventing unexpected novelties for the "five o'clock," new floral decorations, new cakes and sandwiches, new table ap pointments.

The National theater of France is rich Is artists, from the dress point of view as well as from the point of view of dramatic art Mile. Sore, and Mme. Bartet are Incomparably the two best dressed women In Paris, each in her own individual way, for Mme. Bartet's toilettes do not resemble in style those of Mile. Sorel. The latter exploits to perfection everything that is magnifi cent and luxurious and exaggeratedly picturesque. Mme. Bartet on the other hand is an Ideal model for the society woman who wlBhes to be per fectly dressed at all times without un due eccentricity. In the piece "Voulotr" Mile.

And again In the second act her dress. which is composed of charmeuse in the delicate shade known aa "nymphe," which seems white in certain strong light, but which shows faint tints of peach and faintest green. This robe Is veiled in Nattier blue tulle and here and there at unexpected points there are deep red roses made of gause. Still another picturesque robe worn by this actress is made of fine white Mallnea lace with a casaquin of silver Plow of Electric Current.

Now, If we strike these bolls at one end the energy will be utilised at the other. Here we had no actual flow, and yet the energy was transferred from om end to the other.
