ODD BRIDGES IN OLD WORLD
One of the Most Ancient Structure ( That of Croyland, England, Dating From Ninth Century. Probably no town In the world has such strange bridges as Srlnngnr, the capital of Kashmir, in India. The city Is built on the banks of the River Jhelum, which Is crossed by many wooden bridges, fitted with old and dilapidated shops and houses, with balconies and lattice windows. Some of these are very Insecure, and look as if they might at any time full Into the river beneath, says London Tit-Bits. The roofed Kapllbrucck, at- Lucerne, is one of the most interesting. It crosses the River Reuss diagonally, and has 112 triangular paintings beneath the roof, recording the heroic deeds of the old Swltzers and the sufferings of their patron saints. In the midst of the Kapellbrueck stands an octagonal tower, which formed part of the fortifications of the town in the thirteenth century. The bridge was built Id 1333. One of the most curious and ancient bridges In Europe is that at Croyland, in Lincolnshire, which is supposed to date from the ninth century. No road now passes over and no water under It. It consists of three pointed arches, which meet in the center, and the ascent is so steep that only foot passengers can go over it. Upon the bridge Is a seated figure in stone of a robed Saxon king.

FLAGS ON SHADES Patriotic Influence Seen in Parasols and Hats.
No Objection Seen to Givlnfl Red, Whitt and Blue Place of Honor Abov the Head. Milady will wear a military bat and shade it with n pnrusol on which arc embroidered tiny American flags, and with the ferrule flying streamers of red, white and blue ribbon, if she is a really patriotic person this summer. Patriotic Hat and Sunshade. The sketch illustrates a hat and parasol expressing the patriotic influence. The hat, a high-crowned affair, is made of rough white straw braid, the front strapped with narrow ribbon and topped with a severe feather motif. The whole suggestion carried in this hat is soldierly, and the very smart little parasol has en eh separate panel flag-bedecked, while streamers of ribbon carrying the national colors float proudly from its topmost point. The idea of decking parasols and hats with the national colors cannot be objected to, and if our country's flag is to be given a place in the sartorial line-up the hat or parasol would certainly seem to be the place for it, says the Washington Star, To trim a parasol in flags would not be difficult for the deft-fingered woman. The flag may be made entirely of embroidery, or tiny silk flags may be bought and one neatly and firmly appliqued to each white panel of the parasol. The hat shown is done entirely in white, but one clever little chapeau recently noted a narrow-brimmed sailor of navy bra)d was decked with a band of red, white and blue striped ribbon, and the front of the crown was centered with a big flaring rosette of red, white and blue. The truly patriotic person will probably object to handkerchiefs bearing the flag motif in the corner, although some of these kerchiefs are .shown in the. shops. One aggressive petticoat manufacturer who brought out petticoats with their ruffles flag bedecked was promptly "sat upon." Giving the flag the place of honor above our heads, however, is eminently proper, and red, white and blue parasols and hats will undoubtedly be seen in a great variety of styles. ADDING THE FINE TOUCHES New Finishes Which Take Little Time and Appeal to Girl Who Makes Her Own Clothes. The girl who makes her own clothes is the one who is quick to appreciate new finishes, odd little touches which will make her garments look like the work of professionals. For her bene fit, therefore, are gathered the follow ing fine touches which take little time but add so much interest to a gar ment. A new blouse fastens in an unusual ly odd manner. A large vertical slit in the front of the blouse is bound with contrasting silk. It is caught at intervals of an inch or so, and buttons are provided on the underlapping side to fit in this series of buttonholes by the one long slit. Beading is lovely, but on wash fabrics it is not always the most practical thing in the world. To take the place of beads in a design calling for them, use French knots. If these are made with glossy silk, very hard and very tight, the illusion of beads will be quite good. A rather clever way to add tone to a plain handkerchief-linen blouse is to lay the fullness of the front into tucks and to work over the pressed edges ' of thene tucks in a contrasting blanketBtiteh. The same stitch will then be used around the edges of the collar and cuffs. If you are adding inserted pockets to your sports skirt make. them more prominent by embroidery around the opening. A pretty design for this effect is a basket of very small dainty flowers in colors, the basket appearing at the base of the pocket and the flowers clambering up and around the sides. On white or colored linen 'this extra touch is most effective. Low Shoes Are Neutral. Kid or suede shoes or pumps are always either black, gray or cinnamon brown, and the plain but fine silk stockings worn with them should always natch, snys Vogue.
SIMPLE COLLAR IS NO MORE
Fashion Hat Decided That High, Roll ing Japanese Neckwart Mutt B Worn Thii Season. There seems little hope for the sim ple turnover collar that has been such large part nnd parcel of neckwear offerings for ten years. Fashion has decided that the neckwear must either be cut in the oblong of the middle ages and finished with fiat stitchery collar of satin or faille must be worn, rolling high at the back of the neck, seemingly unboned and unstiffened, folding over in front and ending at the bust or the waist. When these collars are not of white satin they are of old gold and pearl gray. They are cut according to the Japanese and Chinese fashion, only more exaggerated in width and height. They do not hug the back of the neck, but stand away from it: they have no corners ; they are round ed and go out well over the shoulders and fold In at the front. Women wear a tucker of folded tulle across the bust, beneath the col lar. Again the inside of the collar is filled in with folds of white silk net, gently drawn down to the waistline and caught there with a brooch or a bar of jewels. Even the simplest shirtwaist of silk or wash satin has its high, rolling collar of the material. Organdie, embroidered muslin and all the other Inexpensive kinds of collars that were neatly attached to the neck line and rolled flatly over on the shoulders are placed in the second class of fashions. Fine laces are used for collars, but they are of coarse weaves, such as filet and Irish crochet, and it is smart er to have them arranged in the Japanese fashion than to have them placed flatly on the shoulders. BLUE SERGE EVER FAITHFUL Holds Affections of Most Women No Matter What New Things May Come From the Loom. No matter what new and desirable things come out of the looms, dark blue cloth under several names holds the attention and the affection of a class of women who prefer to go along the path they know rather than try a new one. It is every woman's experience that a well-built suit of serge or its younger sister, gaberdine, goes through the season and usually begins the next one with more satisfaction to the wearer than all the other garments she has in her possession. She may call it her emergency suit or consider it in the second best class, but when the day of experiments is over she finds the blue cloth her faithful ally, says the New York Evening Sun. The strictly mannish jacket does not suit every mind, however it maj suit every figure, and the dressmakv ers have brought out a number of new ideas that appeal to the class who fret over too much severity. These women declare that they delight in the plain garment, but that's a theory, not a fact, for the dressmaker cannot keep them to the straight and narrow way in clothes, no matter how much persuasion she brings to bear. There are ways, höwever, of achieveing the effect of femininity as opposed to masculinity in a jacket without applying color or a different fabric. It can be done by a master hand in the artistic manipulation of material. STRIKING EVENING GOWN fetes Miladi has no fear of rivals when she appesj-s on the floor in a gown like this. It is one of the most strikingly original ever seen at an evening affair. Gold satin forms the underskirt. White and gold embroidered lace over satingold ribbon gives the creation a frail filmy attractiveness that is its principal feature. Gowns of Yellow Serge. It is some time- now since dresses of yellow serge embroidered with silver lace have been talked about and admired in Paris, but so far none of these has come West. That a yellow serge dress or suit would be well received here there is no doubt, for we have long proved the worth of serge, both darjc and light, and more and more is yellow as a dress color gaining followers.

PROMOTION BASED ON THRIFT
Great Bank Mas Rule Not to Advance Employee Who Hai Not Saved Part of His Salary. Extravagance and lack of thrift are at the bottom of practically every breach of trust committed by trusted employees and officials. In a certain international bank, known all over the world, a rule established by one of Us shrewd founders is rigidly, thougti almost secretly, enforced. Every young man who enters its service Is closely watched. He must not only bear himself properly at all times, but he must save part of his salary. He is not urged or even advised to do so. It is left to himself. If he makes no provision for the future he nevejr occu pies a position of trust, handlesponey, securities or negotiable paper, or is au thorized to sign bank obligations of any character. i An employee of this bank orrce stationed in New York city who' spoke several languages and displayed great ability found out while here She existence of this secret rule when? he applied for a vacancy which helwas in every way capable of filling. Me was told in the kindesf way that advancement along that line was not pr him because they know that he hul not saved a dollar in the 22 years! of his service. ' The principle underlying this rule is that the man who cannot take care of his own money is temperamentally unfit to take care of other people's. Experience has taught more than, one great financial institutionthat the man who lays up a compe tence for himself will not risk disgrace and ruin by stealing from tho$e who trust him. New York Commercial. WHEN HE FOUND HIS TONGUE Recruit Took Wind Out of Pompous Surgeon's Sails When He Recovered His Wits. A very pompous army surgeon was sent to a recruiting depot in the highlands to examine a batch of lals who had taken the king's shilling. The abrupt, overbearing manner of tlie doctor so frightened one nervous recruit that he was unable to answer tlie first question as to his name and place of birth. "Why don't you answer?" roared the doctor. "What's your name, I say?" Still the panic-stricken lad could only stare open-mouthed at his questioner, who exclaimed: "Why, I believe the fellow's stono deaf!" And, taking his watch from his pocket, he held it to the left ear of the recruit, saying: "Can you hear that ticking?" The youth shook his head. The watch was applied to the other ear with the same effect and then the doctor opened the vials of his indignation on the head of the would-be soldier. "What do you mean by Nenlisting when you are stone deaf? Why, you can't even hear the ticking of a watch when it is held within an inch of the drum of your ear!" And then the worm turned. "She's no' gaun,'" said the recruit, finding his tongue at last. And when the doctor holding the wa'tch to his own ear, found that it had indeed stopped, his feelings were too powerful to be expressed in words, extensive though his vocabulary ordinarily was. Glasgow Weekly Herald. Soldiers' Little Joke. The Paris police authorities have decided in the future to arrest all soldiers on leave who perpetrate the hoax that they are carrying dangerous hand grenades or other high explosives in the underground railways or tram cars, thus scaring other passengers to get out. It hr.s been a common practice for soldiers weighted down with a steel helmet, knapsack, blanket roll and canteen to squeeze into a crowded car and then warn the other passengers : "Don't jostle or crowd me or my grenades may blow up." This usually caused many fellow passengers to leave the car at the next stalion, thus giving the soldiers plenty of room and seats. Repartee of a Bishop. A good story of Canon Adderley concerns Wilberforce, Bishop of Oxford, whose official designation was "Samuel Oxon," made up of his baptismal name, followed by the Latin name for his see. Wilberforce was one day addressing a meeting writes Mr. Adderley and I suppose he coughed or cleared his throat in the midst of his speech. "TryThorley's food for cattle," said a voice. "Thank you," said the bishop, "it may be good for asses, for it does not suit Samuel Oxon." On another occasion his audience hissed. Said Wilberforce, "Remember, gentlemen, that is not an excessively human utterance." Homes for Foreign Diplomats. For many years the foreign headquarters of the United States diplomatic corps have been exceedingly inadequate. Any residence was considered good enough for consular and diplomatic duties until the war began, when the importance of such duties had occasion to be emphasized. Now a bill has been introduced into congress providing an appropriation of $200,000 a year for the rent of suitable buildings in foreign countries for the life of the diplomatic service, both as residences of diplomatic officials and as offices of the diplomatic establish-ments.
LIFT YOUR CORNS ' OFF WITH FINGERS
How to tooten a tender corn or callus o it lifts out without pain. Let folks step on your feet hereafter; wear shoes a size smaller If you like, for corns will never again send electric sparks of pnln through you, according to this Cincinnati authority. He says that a few drops of a drug called freezone, applied directly upon a tender, aching corn, Instantly relieves soreness, and soon the entire corn, root and all, lifts right out.

A small bottle of freezone obtained at any drug store will cost very littlo but will positively remove every hard or soft corn or callus from one's feet. If your druggist hasn't stocked this new drug yet, tell him to get a small bottle of freezone for you from his wholesale drug house. adv. A New Use for the Flag. A ten-year-old Muncie school'v a' few days ago was seen by his f 'her, at the noon hour, pinning n - tall American flag on the seat of hH trousers. Calling his son to task, i ho elder inquired the reason for this unusual action. "Well, you see, papa," said the bright youth, "some of us hoys shot paper wads in school today, and the principal said we should all be given a lickin' after school this afternoon. I figured out if I had this flag there he wouldn't dare strike the flag of his country." Indianapolis News. F R E C K L E S Now Is the Time to Get Rid of Tbcs Üly Spots.

At a mill in Bolton the workers were having a discussion about who was the quietest man they knew. They got a minder to act as judge. Then they got their thinking apparatus to work, to think who was the quietest man they knew. Many hundred names were mentioned. The judge was about to give his decision when he saw a minder who had never mautioned one. Then the judge said: "Neaw, Jack, does tha not know any quiet mon?" "Well," said the minder, "I-thfnk I just know one." ' "Well, out with it," said the judge. "Well, I think owd Bill Kite the quietest mon I know." The minders looked, and then they all exclaimed at once: "Why, mon, he's dead !" "I know that. I think he's the quietest mon I know. He's never spoken to me for nearly twenty years!" London Tit-Bits. From Bibles to Guns. War brings many curious changes. A few months ago the American Biblo society sent to Panama a fine power boat, the Goodwill, for the use of Its new Bible house there in supplying Bibles to the vessels that pass through the canal. Now the boat, mounting a gun, is in the government patrol service. Youth's Companion. The Utmost Respect. "Never quarrel with your bread and butter, son." "No danger for that, dad.
