Yesterday is dead; tomorrow is unborn; it is today alone that is ours, that is ever with us, and that makes up our lives' and eternity as single grains of sand make up the boundless beach of the , seas. Born between two heart beats and dying as instantaneously, only to be gin again; filling the space between the limitless past and limitless future without ever merging into either; pasBinf with the swiftness of the weaver's shuttle and like it fashioning the fabric of our lives; dropping one by one into the ocean of time as precious pearls might slip from a silken cord into some fathomless pool; as unfal tering in its flight as is the motion of the earth on its axis, and ever bear ing our life with it from one eternity to another there is nothing more real, nothing more elusive than this period of time we call "today." Life for a day is but an epitome of a life time. Each' day has its own allotted task no more. It is only when we go beyond that which is given us for the day and force the mind and body to do things worth while; when we are not satisfied With "our daily bread" for which one wiser than we taught us to pray, but strive to lay up a senseless surplus to leave behind; when the pleasures that were given us to enjoy in wholesome moderation degenerate into excesses it is only then that nature takes revenge. Today is a small space only a lightning flash in the dark. But then it is all that is really ours. Today exacts little of us; but as we do that little well or ill we weave the warp-and-woof of our success- or failure. The duties of today are small, but as our todays add into months and year, lifetime, are daily deeds to accumulate into mighty forces for good or 11. HAVE RETURNED Mr. and Mrs. James I.

Many of the members have beautiful grounds anout their homes, with landscape gardening at its best, and others have smaller places with lawns and trees. By visiting the different places the members gather ideas for beautifying their own gardens and yards. The fees are small and the money is used sometimes for a lecture by a landscape gardner or a talk about flowers and shuba from an authority. Indianapolis News.

Music MUSICA LAFFAIRS QUIET There is, comparitively speaking, "Nothing Doing" this month in musical circles.

FOURTH CONCERT The fourth concert of the Chicago university's series took place last Tuesday evening, July 25. Lucille Stevenson-Tewksbury, soprano, was the soloist. In the first part of the program she was heard in Strauss' "Zueignung," Brahm's "Wiegenlied" and Kaun's "Der Seiger," in all of which she displayed a voice of sympa thetic quality,, beautifully placed, and used with consummate artistry. In her second group, which consisted of MacDo well's "Long Ago" and "A Maid Sings Light," Spross "Yesterday and Today," and Salter's "The Cry of Rachel," the singer again covered herself with glory by a splendid rendition of these difficult selections. Mrs. Tewksbury sang exquisitely "One Fine Day" from "Madama Butterfly," which won for her much well deserved applause. Musical Courier.

Charlotte Maconda, the coloratura soprano; Lilla Ormond, the mezzo soprano, and Albert Spalding, the violinist, are among the artists Mr. Johnston has for the coming season. FADS AND FASHIONS NEW YORK, Aug. 6. Although the women in Paris have taken up the little coat with enthusiasm, as one of the most charming features of this summer's fashions, it is a remarkable fact that these little coats have found but few friends in this country so far. It is true, some of the importing houses here are displaying a few charming models of such coats and here and there one may see a woman wearing one, but in Paris they are all the rage, and deservedly so. The prominent French designers, who have shown some of the handsomest models of such coats do not wish the little coats to be considered separate coats. For that reason they repeat the color or trimming of the coat somewhere about the frock, very lightly, perhaps, very unobtrusively, but firmly enough to link the component parts- of the costume into one homogeneous whole. Yet, this is not always the case, and e thrifty and clever woman may make her piquant little coat do d"y with more than one costume if she so wishes. Broderie anglaise is a popular material for the short coat, and in linen or linon, as the French call the fine handkerchief linen to distinguish it from toile, which is our linen, with revers and trimming of slk or velvet or plain linen it works out very charmingly. Where worn with a sheer lingerie frock into whose trimming a little of the broderie Anglaise enters, such a coat is very prettly, but its use is by no means limited to association with the sheer white lingerie stuffs. This openwork embroidery is usual in handsome quality upon everything from silk muslin to satin and serge. ,. - Used under sheer semi-transparent materials of color or black this popu lar embroidery is to be seen on all kinds of frocks, its bold openwork deFROH TEETHING Watery Festers Dried 1 in Scabs. Would Dig and Scratch Her Face. Used Cuticura Soap and Ointment and Was Cured. "When my little girl was about eight months old, she was taken with a very irritating breaking out, which came on her face, neck and back. When she first came down with it, it came in little waterylike festers under her eyes, and on her chin, then after a few days it would dry down m scaly, white scabs. In the daytime eho was quite worrysome and would dig and scratch her face nearly all the time. " I consulted our physician and found she was suffering from eczema, which he said came from her teeth ing. I used the ointment he gave me and without any relief at ail. Then I wrote for a book on Cuticura, and purchased gome Cuticura Soap and Ointment at the drugstore. I did as I found directions in the Cuticura Booklet, and when she was one year old, she was entirely cured. Now she is three years and four months, and she has never been troubled with -eczema since she was cured by the Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment." (Signed) Mrs. Freeman C raver, 311 Lewis St., Syracuse. N. Y., May 6, 1911. Cuticura Soap and Ointment are sold throughout the world, but to those who have tried the usual remedies and found them wanting, and who have lost faith in everything; a liberal sample of each, with 32p. hook on the skin, will be sent post-free, on application to Potter Drug Chem.

sign showing charmingly through the cloudy veilings. Bands of the open work embroidery trim silk, marquisette, chiffon, linen, tulle, and every material, and it is combined with the finest and the heaviest of laces. Short coats are formed of lace, as well as of embroidery, though the lace is more often used in combination with embroidery than alone, and the coat, entirely of lace, seldom has the cachet of the little silk coat Big collars of lace or embroidered muslin almost hide some ofthe little silk coats. A short taffeta costume, with a coat of the taffeta, bordered in bouilloneea and sporting a big fichu of flat, overlapping pointed edge and embroidered muslin flouncees had a tunic of the taffeta over and underskirt of the overlapping embroidery flounces. The very short bolerolike coat, belted just belo wthe bust line and with a little frill falling below the girdle, was introduced among the first of the short coats and is stil lgreaty liked. The girdling and belting of coats of all kinds is noticeable in, the late summer modes and produces some odd effects as well as some very delightful results. With the lowering of the modish waist line this girdled arrangement naturally assumes a Russian blouse character, and this has given rise to a rumor that the Russian blouse will be here again in the autumn. At all events, belted coats of one kind or another are fairly sure to find a place among fall modes. Directoire coats cut squarely away at the high waist line in front and falling in a long, straight panel or coat tail in the back are made up without trimming other than big soft ifebus of fine muslin or net bordered by tiny frills and frills of the same sheer material finishing the halflength sleeves. Black and white are still greatly worn in spite of the outcry about their over-popularity, and the frocks in this coloring are often the prettiest seen at smart functions. There has been a fad for sheer white over black as a change from the long admired sheer black over white, and several of the great dressmakers have laid considerable stress upon this arrangement. Practically all lingerie now is built on the simplest lines, so that the narrow lines of the frock may not be interfered with, and many dressmakers advise corsets that lace in front because of the narrowness and plainness of skirts at the back. Many women, however, dislike the front-lacing corsets. New corsets are very low at the top, to give a low-busted figur, but it the lower edge material is built down to keep the hips in subjection. The very newest notion in lingerie is the nightgown embroidered in color, and some of these little gowns are exceedingly dainty. The ribbon, run through the embroidered eyelets, of course, matches the embroidery in tints. A pretty little Frenhc robe de nuit seen the other day had a yoke and dimunitive sleeves of pink mull, scalloped and embroidered by hand, the scallops being laced together down the arm with pink ribbons run through eyelets. Yoke and nainsook gown were joined under a beading also run with pink ribbon. In the skirt of the gown were set two bands of the pink mull between entre deux of lace. The fichu and the jabot continue

A GRUDGING SPIRIT. Much depends on the way a thing is done. An act which might be taken as a kindness if done in a generous spirit, when done in a grudging spirit may be felt as harsh and even cruel When Ben Jonson lay ill in poverty the king sent him a paltry message, accompanied by a gratuity.
