Persistent effort on the part of the state board of education, aided by the various school boards throughout the state and also by the Individual ef forts of the various superintendents, has at last succeeded in insuring an exhibit at the St Louie world's fair, Space has been allotted and now it is in order to make every effort to use It to the best advantage in order that the exhibit may be a creditable one. Although the time is short the enthusiasm of the school people Is such that they will do the very best they can under the circumstances. are The following lines of work suggested by Horace Cummings, the education director, as capable of furand nishing 'Suitable materials to lie placed She goes through a daily ceremony in the exhibit in the presence of her children, from Art Drawings, freehand, illustratwhich they learn the names and deeds ive, mechanical, etcH painting, mod- of the great in their country's chivaleling, mouldings, pottery work, decorextolls the glories of war. and she ry; ative work, etc. upon them the shame that Impresses Science or Nature Study Prepared to live If the slayer of be would it specimens of animals and plants, anilived. their father e mal charts, seed charts, The wife has great authority In the apparatus; devices for observational household and all her seeming subwork, meteorological records, weather a matter of manners. is maps and data, objective and graphic jection largely councils of her husShe shares the of things learned, representations band, and influences his career to a samples of minerals. extent than do the wives of greater Manual Training Useful articles land. western the made by the students, specimens of of Japan is the best of The empress training work, models, samples and of this.

There is nothing sensible or even pretty about that but, for the sake of being fashionable, women will endure more stupid fashions than that Borne of the imported skirts show considerable fullness around the hips and that la their weak points so far as fleshy women are concerned. That style will never become popular with women of excessive avoirdupois, because it accentuates the ample dimensions of their hips. In some instances the difficulty has been cleverly overcome by arranging the close folds in overlapping, flat tucks, sewed down in such a way as not to increase the bulk of the hip pari. This tendency to extreme fulness is not so strongly emphasised in e suits than in more pretentious gowns, and, as a rule, their skirts fit tight enough at the hips, merely flaring more than they did last year from the knees down. Women who are too fleshy to wear skirts full all the way down will have to compromise In some way and await better times next year. They are decidedly at a disadvantage, as it is far easier to dress a tall and slender woman In a becoming and chic way than it is to find some style to hide the altogether too voluptuous curves of their anatomy. There are no puttier and more ornamental accessories to a stylish street toilet than the pelerines, stoles and scarfs which are so fashionable Just now and are becoming more popular e every day. Worn with suits they greatly moderate the severity of the effect and add a softening and artistic touch to the costume, that could not be produced in any other way. These wraps, if they may be called so, are made in practically unlimited variety of styles and their nature offers incomparable opportunities for the exercise of taste and ingenuity. The practical usefulness of the stoles, pelerines and scarfs may be questioned, but their beauty and artistic effect which they produce are ample excuse for their existence. If such an excuse be needed in matters of fashion. They are made from nearly every kind of material known, from cloth to mull, from silk to velvet or lace. The same freedom which is allowed in the choice of the material from which the body of these wraps Is made. Is permitted in the choice of trimmings and ornamentations. Lace, tailor-mad- tailor-mad- ribbons, embroideries, passementerie, braids and even feathers and furs are used in the adornment of these handsome and dainty bits of apparel. Among the most recent novelties or fashion is a new kind of gown, which may be considered a sort of compromise style, suitable as well for day wear as for evening wear. These new gowns are called Bridge gowns, because they owe their invention to the peculiar requirements caused by the bridge whist game. Queen" gives the following characteristic description of the new gown: Bridge gowns are neither tea gowns nor lounging gowns. They are Intended to play a double part to be suited for afternoon war, and, if the game becomes absorbing, to be not Inappropriate for the evening. They are day gowns and evening gowns melted into one, and so dressy! As often as not they are made In crepe de chine of some pretty coloring, or white trimmed with black, or red trimmed with black lace. The bodices are neither decollete hor do they come up high to the throat They are neither square shaped nor heart shaped but allow the necklet or chain to be well seen and to admit of many pretty little broaches and ornnments. The sleeves are cut with a due regard for showing off the arm to the best ad Ease, Comfort j vantage, with soft, filmy frills draping it from elbow to wrist However much we have wandered away from grace in other domains of dress, sleeves certainly hold their own and how off the arms better than any style we have had for a long time." It seems to be the consensus of opinion of all authorities on fashion that ribbons will be decidedly fashionable this year, for the first time In many seasons. It seems, indeed, that they are going to rival lace in importance for trimming purposes. They are used extensively in a great variety of ways on many of the imported models for spring and summer wear and in view of the great demand expected the shops have laid in a great stock or which to choose. ribbons from Whether it is merely one of the oddities of foshion or whether the patterns were selected with the purpose or putting them in harmony with the revival of the style of 1830, remains an open question, but there can be no doubt that many of the patterns exhibited are decidedly Flower designs are used extensively for flowered muslins and Dolly Var-de- n sashes, as are conventional wreaths with blurred effects, pink and purple garlands, with the colors skillfully subdued by shading. Red roses on a pale background are also used and make a very effective ribbon for trimming. hats and bonnets. The variety of materials and designs is bewildering in the display of ribbons and there is something for every taste and every purse to be found in the lot There will be many pretty and interesting novelties in hats this spring and summer but probably the most distinguishing feaure of the season will be the gossamer hat. The thinnest and most delicate fabrics will be used for hats this spring and summer and the colors will be mostly light. Among the materials whlcn will be used principally for the foundations of hats - will be crepe llsse, tulle and mousseline. They will be used in different ways, but always so as to preserve the effect All kinds of lace, fine straw braids, quillings and ribbons will be used, for decorative purposes on the new style hats. ' Flowers will be used more than ever for trimming. There is only one difference. Formerly the style. ran to large and bulky flowers, while this year small flowers will be the style. They will be used in the form of garlands, chaplets, or little nosegays, connected with dainty festoons of smaller flowers. Most of the flowers will be used without foliage.. There will be a great variety of shapes in hats this year, including variation of the styles worn last year. Many of the models imported here recently show Irregular shapes, some of them decidedly original in their structure. Laces of all kinds. Including Brussels, Mechlin and other pillow laces, will be great favorites. Straw braids, particularly the light forms of plain. Tuscan will be employed a great deal for decorative purposes. They will be used in combination with lace, ribbons and flowers. Large bulging bows of ribbons will not be in style. Where large bows are used they win be stitched down flat. The question, which colors will be the most fashionable during the coming season, is one which Is of great interest to all women who wish to be In trie and, naturally, it is more burning at this time. Just before the opening of the spring season. Brown promises to be the most popular color; next to it will probably be pale violet. Lavender has been revived and will have a strong run, and various hades of green, especially emerald green, are rapidly gaining in favor.
