Now York City.~There Is a certain
charm Inherent In the shirred waist
which always renders it desirable for
sole materials, This season when
everything fashionable is pliable in the
extreme and can be crushed into the
smallest possible space, it has been
more than usually in demand and ex-
ceptionally attractive. Illustrated is
one of the best of all models that is
eminently simple yet which gives the
best possible lines. In the case of the
original the material is pale blue ra-
dium silk, but the list of available
silks alone is a long one, while the
chiffon voiles, mousseline, chiffon and
the like are all much to be desired, as
also are embroidered and Jace nets.

can be installed at small cost in
any home, large or small any- In this instance the waist is worn with
various other

bands, cabochons and
concelts in brooches.

Distinguishing Tdeas.
Toques of diminished size, and ap-
propriately modified in character, and
the crown of the French capote with a
projecting rolled brim rising to a point
at the top for the most part represent
the distinguishing ideas which have ex-
pression in the bonnets seen in collec-
tions of headwear in the recent open-
ings.—Millinery Trade Review.
Sarplice Waist,
There is no simple waist that gives a
more satisfactory result than this one
made in surplice style. It allows of
wearing a chemisette of embroidery,
tucked muslin or anything that may
be liked, which being separate, can
easily be renewed and consequently 1s
exceedingly dainty in effect as well as
in the height of style, In the illustra-
tion it is made of white butcher's lin-
en with banding of embroidery, the
chemisette being of embroidered all
over, but it can be made available for
almost all waisting of the warm weath-
er and algo will be found a most ex-
cellent design for the light weight flan-
nels, albatross and the like which are
sure to be in demand in cooler
days. When these latter materials
are used the chemisette would pref-
erably be of muslin either tucked or
embroidered, although tucked and
plain taffeta are used while banding
can be almost anything that may be
liked, but nothing gives a prettier ef-
fect than the material with some sim-
ple embroidery executed by hand.
The waist is made with fronts and
back, the latter being plain while the
fronts are tucked at the shoulders.
The right side laps over the left and

er than kerosene, brighter than

edge, the two being joined together
and giving a girdle effect, but the com-
bination is not obligatory, as the waist
can be used either with this skirt or
with any other that may be preferred.
The waist is made with a smoothly
fitted lining and itself consists of the
front and backs, which are shirred to
form both the yoke and the girdle, the
closing being made invisibly at the
back. The neck can be finished with
a little frill of lace as illustrated, or

Trains Are tissential.
Trains are almost necessary on a
handsome gown. They .make all the
difference in the world in the general
appearance of a woman. If she is
short, the train gives her height. A
short skirt on a tall woman is never
agreeable.
Birds Not in Favor.
Birds that look as if they had just
been shot or had their necks wrung are
in little favor this year. Most of the
so-called birds are make-ups.
WHO 18 KODAMA?
Power Behind the Throne Says News
paper Correspondent,
If one asks who Kodama is there
are two answers; one, that he is the
chief of the general staff in the Japan«
ese army, and the other that he is,
besides, a poor unlettered man, who,
at 62 years of age, rules Japan and
guldes her armies,
Richard Barry, the war correspond-
ent, says, in “Port Arthur,” that this
man thinks while others sleep, and
works while ofhers eat, He is the
power behind the throne, the adviser
at the general's ear. '
Many public men in Japan believe
Kodama to be an unsafe person of
second-rate capacity. He had been
sent to Formosa, to “get rid of him.”
There he raised the place from sav-
agery to a commercial prosperity. He
could have been prime minister.
“No,” he said. “I would rather pull
strings than be one of the strings to
be pulled. Russia is peeping up over
the border. Let us prepare. Give
me a desk in the war office.”
So the critics were glad to get the
upstart out of the way. But when the
war came, one man had his finger on
things, and knew when and where to
strike. He knew the points in the
Korean coast where an army could
be landed. He knew how soon it
coyld be transported there; where all
the merchant steamers were, and how
long it would take to turn them into
transports; and he had the audacity
of genius.
He was not a very presentable man.
He had never traveled, and spoke
nothing but Japanese. He would
laugh like a boy at what he liked,
and frown over what displeased him.
And he scorned a frock coat and stuck
to a kimono. But the emperor and
the wisest heads about him knew
what Kodama was, and although they
could not, for pride’s sake, give him
the command of the army, they
crowned him with power.
Obedience a Help.
There is a woman down in Indiana
who is hale and hearty at the age of
100, and when she was asked to what
she attributed her age and health she
replied, “Obedience.” And this, too,
at a time when the women are having
the word “obey” taken out of the mar-
riage service and in other ways mani-
festing the most supreme contempt for
the old obligation. It is not to be be-
lieved that there are many women who
will care to drag out an existence of
100 years in a state of obedience, even
if a fair degree of health is assured.
The holy scriptures do not tell us how
long the women lived, although we
know that Sarah survived until she
was 127 and was so obedient that the
Lord blessed her with Isaac when she
was 90. And it is fair to suppose that
other good Hebrew wives were equally
long lived and successful. Thus we
see that obedience is of the utmost
importance to the human race and is
the source of happiness and prosper-
ity. Still the women of this age are
extremely stiff-necked and unreason.
able.
Insomnia.
Slumber, hasten down this way,
And, ere midnight dies,
Silence lay upon my lips,
Darkness on my eyes.
Send me a fant dream;
Fashion me si
Into some c It g
Change this mortal flesh.
When I know one may not choose;
One is helpless still
In the purple realm of sleep;
Jse me as you will,
Let me be a frozen
In the dead glacier :
Let me pant, a leopard stretched
On the Libyan sands.
Silver fin or scarlet wing,
Grant me either one;
Sink me deep in emerald glooms,
Lift me to the sun.
Or of me a gargoyle make,
Face of ape or gnome,
Such as frights the tavern boor,
Reeling drunken home.
Work on me vour own caprice,
Give me any shape;
Only, Slumber, from myself
Let myself escape!
—Thomas Bailey Aldrich.
Go Barehead to Church.
The custom of going bareheaded.
which New York women have exten
sively adopted this summer, has
spread even to the churches. At serv-
ices which are held week evenings a
large contingent of women attend
without hats. “I bope the custom will
extend to the theaters this winter,”
said a West Side man. “Then women
will not have to hold their hats in
their laps. I alw feel sorry for
women when they take off their hats
in the theater. Their hair is usually
disarranged, and taking care of a hat
all evening is a nuisance. A woman
never looks prettier than with a scart
of lace or chiffon thrown over her
head, and it is no trouble to take care
of that. Women wear them in Lon:
don and why shouldn't they in New
York?”
A Sound Indorsement.
The home team having been inglori-

tain.”
“Yes,” coincided his little nephew,
who was on a visit from Boston, “base
ball, looked at from any point of view,
is certainly a fluctuating quantity.”
