Ernperor Francis Joseph showed a
slight improvement this morning. He

considerable fever and some signs of
apathy. His majesty passes his time

1 saw a light-blue voile the other day
so sheer and soft and line that six feet
away from the gown I thought the ma-
terial was chiffon or mousseline. The
bands on the skirt were satin of self
color, and there was an abundance of
narrow lace let into the bodice, a deep
yoke of lace, and the sleeves were on-
tirely of lace trimmed with row after
row or narrow lace. it was a dainty
garment, suitable for afternoon, thea-
ter and any but the dressiest occa~
alone.
When we any long sleeves are fash-
ionable we do not necessarily mean
that the only sleeves of the gown are
very long and very close from the
shoulder to the knuckles of the hand.
On the contrary they are all this but
almont invariably accompanied by
over-sleeves which are elaborate and
tense and full and fall only to the el-
ow.
It is more natural to be good than it
is to be had, even as it is more natural
to be happy than it is to be miserable,
says the editor of the Pictorial Review.
The disconcerting part is that We so
seldom seem to know the sort of thing
that. will make us happy. Some fancy
that wealth will do it; others, beauty;
some so in for fame: and he on. But
until one masters the problem of how

Money left by Elihu Burriit, of New

New Britain are planning to erect to
the memory of the learned blacksmith.
Mr. Burritt was for years greatly in-
iorestcd in the New Britain Agricul-
tural society, having been at one time‘
its secretary. and stone time he gave
$400 to the organization. The motiVe
of the gift was to keep alive the in-
terest in the club by providing a fund
for suppers and for the members to
enjoy themselves. :
Several suppers were given from
the Burritt fund. but gradually as the
city grew up the interest to wield»
turai affairs became less distinct. and
the club. was not kept up to «its old
time zeal. For years no meetings were

A pleasing substitute for the round'

away on slightly slanting lines instead
of with the full rounding curve. This
allows the corners to finished
