Kasha, of which ao much Is promised,

graceful and altogether satisfactory-

styles for street wear and for indoors,
Its fluffy softness yielding to graceful,
draped lines.
Departing from plain colors, several
striking gowns of kasbs hsve been re-
ceived by a prominent New York cou-
turier. One Is done in cinnamon
brown, of which the upper part of the
dress is made, down to the line of the
hip. The bodice has slight coat revers
st the neck and straight, wrist-length
sleeves. The waist, unbelted, hangs
away In on eton Jacket effect. The
aklrt, straight and narrow, has a bor-
der more than knee depth of the cloth
woven in a bold pattern combining the
Greek key and Egyptian characters, in
brilliant orange, brown and gray. A
strip of this gaudy border Is sewn
across the back of the neck, like a
shallow sailor collar. The composition
Is bold, but no crudeness Is evident
and the result Is fetching.

therefore an absolute novelty to the
present generation. It Is a brocade in
wool or silk of fine wenve, richness
and dignity. It Is happily adapted to
the latest styles for afternoon, to be
trimmed with fur or worn with a fur
scarf. Matelasse will be shown in some
Russian tunics and in soft-line wraps.
The two-tone character of the cloth
gives scope for numerous color combi-
nations, some of which are very beau-
tiful. Marigold and henna, brown and
orange, tan and gray, green and gray,
green and blue are among the most
charming. I'oiret twill endures and

poplins and velvet, for which a tremen-
dous vogue Is predicted.
Kvery woman knows the flattering
quality of a velvet gown, especially In
black, for daytime or evening, and al-
most any sort of frock fashioned of
velvet gives the wearer a dressy ap-
pearance. A new velvet is the erect
pile, having no nap, and may be cut
either way. The browns from Havana
to seal, are much liked for coat dresses
and three-piece suits, successfully
trimmed wtth fur or embroidery. Vel-

In most enchanting shades—nlle green,
apple green, pea green, sapphire, gobe-
lin blue, hydrangea, hyacinth, orange,
amber, gold, flame, rose, mulberry,
coral, apricot, orchid, violet, mauve.
Semisport Suits.
A new fashion that has appeared
■hows a suit which has a skirt of
striped wool with a fur-trimmed coat
of plain color, or the order Is reversed.
These are what might be called semi-
sport suits and are Just the thing for
autumn days in the country or for a
suit to wear In the morning when shop,

Silhouette for Fall la Wider, Pari# Says
The silhouette for autumn, accord-
ing to the models shown In Paris, Is
wider than that of the summer, writes
a fashion correspondent In the New
York Tribune. Very little drapery 4s

use of long, full tunics that extend to
wttbln two or three Inches of the bot-
tom of the skirt

The circular all-around tunic ia also
being shown. Jean Patou Is display-
ing a number of models with simple
bodices and flaring aklrt* One of
these models Is made of mauve and
green figured silk and has a chiffon
yoke in the back of the waist, braided
with soutache The two Inches of
skirt visible below the tunic is slso of
chiffon similarly braided.
The waistline ahowa a tendency to
meander all over the silhouette. A
waistline that began at the normal
line to front and extended to the hips

the spring, and the new. models tor

Madeleine Vlonnet exaggerates this

use of a sash that Is placed high In

th* 1880 silhouette, which wss preva

Autumn Brown, Color

the arts of massage, powder and paint,
whereas the American woman Is con-
tent to let nature, take Ita course, but.

ful activities."
Autumn Is the great brown period la

for outdoors. The browns lesd In the

—Idylls *f th* Kins.
We hsve set rules for Judging dif-
ferent breeds of <1 >gt and hnntos and
cattle sod nlieep.
In our everydsy conversation* we
Judfce rata hornes by their «|:eod; dray
horses by their strength; cows by
lltelr butter yield; sheep by their yield
st rt quality of wool, snd men by their
aesith or rank or edurstlon.
Brief consideration, however, ihows
that wealth Is s poor standard by
which to Judge the value of a man.
It Is not heredltury. In the sense thst
•peed stid strength snd high butter
yield and long wool are heredjtary
among animals. Then, too, wealth Is
often stolen or secured by unfair
means or secured by gift or made by
the community rather than by the In-
dividual.
Tolstoy, himself a rich man. ridi-
cules the tendency to Judge men by
their wealth. He represents a horse
as explaining the human race to a
colt. The horse says: "Men rule in
life not by deeds, but by words. They
love not so much the possibility of
doing or not doing anything as th<!
possibility of talking about different
objects in words agreed upon between
them. Such words. Considered very
Important among them, are the words
my, mine, ours, which -they employ
for various things, beings and objects,
even for .life earth, people ami horses.
In regard to any particular thing they
agree that only one person shall my.
'It is mine.' And he who in this play,
which they engage In, can say mine
In regard to the greatest number of
things, is considered the most fortu-
nate among them."
A much earlier writer than Tolstoy,
writing. in - the times of Nero, ridi-
cules not only wealth but rank and
physical qualities also as means of
Judging a man: "1 am a better man
than you, says one, for I iiuve many
estates and you are pining with hun-
ger. I have been consul, says another;
I am a governor, a third, and I have
a fine head of balr, says a fourth. Yet
one horse does not say to another,
'I am better than you, for I have a
great deal of hay and a great deal
of oats; and I have a gold bridle and
embroidered trappings'; but, 'I am
swifter than you.' And every creature
is better or worse, from its own good
or bad qualities. Is man, then, the
only creature which hath no natural
good quality? And must we consider
hair and clothes and ancestors to
Judge of him?"

"—You have fallen into your rank,
and I have fallen into mine."
—A Tale of Two Cities.
If we mix together oit and vinegar
and set the vessel aside, the oil will
promptly rise to the top. If we add
an egg to the mixture and beat the
whole very vigorously, we can for
a while circumvent nature and keep
the oil and vinegar In mixture: but If
the sauce Is set away for a time, the
oil breaks Its bond* and returns to
the top.
If we toss a measure of stone, gravel
and sand into a vessel of water, shake
the vessel thoroughly, then set It aside
to settle, we shall find the stone at
the bottom, the gravel above that
and the sand on top.-
The oil and the gravel both found
their places by means of their weight
—heavy tilings sink, light things float.
No one has yet figured out what
there Is in human relations that cor-
responds to specific gravity; but each
man has a place or a rank In the uni-
verse and Invariably falls into It
sooner or later.
Whatever It is that determines rank
men are conscious of Ita presence
when it is present. Let the officer*
of a regiment be killed and If there
Is a leader In the ranks be will aa
sume command. No one will tell him
to lead—he will step forward and the
Ohmaht
others will rollow him. History tell I
us that the thing has happened tlma
after time In battle. Gather together
a hundred hoys from all parts of the
country and put them- together In a
camp aoinewhere and within a week
three or four boys will be leading the
rest. No one will tell them to be the
leaders—they will take the place for
themselves aa naturally as oil takes
Ita place In s mixture.
It is not mental ability that caaaes
the difference In rank, as was obvious
la the case of Carton and Stryvsr.
where the brighter man held the lesser
rank. It is not energy, for the exces-
sively energetic man often ranks
lower than his more deliberate
brother. It Is not education, for aaaay
a man with his Ph. D. ranks lower
thsa some other maa who barely Sa-
ished grammar school.

0AM RIVER TO STOP FLOOD
Barrage Type Constructed in South
Africa to Prevent Collecting of ,
Mud In Reservoir
After seven years of building, a dam
that stops a 40-inlle river in South
Africa was recently completed. A bar-
rage . type was chosen to prevent col-
lecting of mud and earth In the reser-
voir and to avoid flooding of private
property on the river bunks. In the
average year enough dirt is carried
down this river to cover 720 acres
a depth of six inches. Passing through
tanks and filters and being treated
with chemicals clears the water. Thir-
ty-six sluice gates control the huge
barrage, 1,400 feet long. When full,
the depth of tbe water will be ^5 feet.
At the formal opening a British prince
officiated.—Popular Mechanics.
