AFTERMATH. When the Bummer fields are mown, When the birdB are fledged and flown, And the dry leaves strew the path; With the falling of the snow. With the cawing of the crow. Once again the fields we mow And gather In the aftermath. Not the sweet, new grass with flowers Is this harvesting of ours; Not the upland clover bloom; But the rowen mixed with weeds, Tangled tufts rrom marh and meads, Where the poppy drops Its seeds In the silence and the gloom.

PIKES ON FACE tUm GREAT IT ForThree Long Years. Suffered Great Dea . Cuticura Soap and Ointment n ,. u i d ix ' Brought Marvelous Results. In Few Weeks Cured Completely. "I was troubled with acne for three long yean. My face wis the only part affected, but it rauaed great disfigurement, also suffering and loss of sleep. At first there appeared red, hard pimples which later contained white matter. I uttered a great deal caused by the itching. I was in a state of perplexity when walking the streets or anywhere before the public. "I usd pills and other remedies but they failed completely. I thought of giving tip when noi ding would help, but something told me to try tne cuttcura toap and ointment. I sent for a Cuticura Booklet which I read earef ully. Then I bought some Cuticura &oap and Ointment and by following the directions I was relieved In a few days. I used Cuticura Soap for washing my face, and applied the Cuticura Ointment morning and evening. This treatment brought marvelous results so I continued with it for a few weeks and was cured completely. I ran truthfully say that the Cuticura Remedies are not only all, but more than they claim to be." (Signed) O. Baumel, 1015 W. 30th riace, Chicago, 111.. May 2S, 1911.

But if it is wiser to avoid any discussion of years a j single large candle In a large candle holder may be used in the center and candied rose petals or other candies may decorate the edge. There are large candle holders for the purpose which corns in various flower shapes. At a children's party, to make a change from the usual birthday cake, there were individual cakes iced with white and decorated with colored bonbons, and a candle stood in the center of each in a flower-shaped holder. The cakes came to the table on a tray looking like one large cake. The children were delighted when each received a candle. FOLK DANCE.

The season for the concerts of the Cincinnati Symphony orchestra opens! at Music Hall, on Friday afternoon and Saturday evening, with the most Interesting prospects, and probably the finest orchestral force which has as yet appeared under the name of an organization not unknown to fame. The prophet without honor in his own country is a clasification which is not to be applied to anyone concerned with the local orchestra or with the band itself.

One of the most important musical events of any season In Richmond is the appearance of the Imperial Russian Court Balalaika Orchestra at the Gennett on Tuesday evening of this ! week. This is the first tour of this organization in the West and should not be confused with the Russian Symphony orchestra which played in Richmond last winter. The following from the "Pittsburg Dispatch," in which the orchestra appeared recently is an appreciation of the organization's musical accomplishments: "Pittsburg people are fond of Russian music, and well they may be, if all they hear is of a part with that rendered by the Imperial Russian Court Balalaika Orchestra on its first appearance in this city at Exposition Music Hall last night. No such audience has greeted any orchestra there this season, and seldom has a greater gathering been there for any like purpose. Certainly not in the recent past has there been manifest so much enthusiasm as that which broke out after the rendition of the first number at the two concerts. It must be confessed that the enthusiasm was in evidence before the players began to sound their odd instruments, and the strangers were giv en such a welcome without having played a note as might have been ac - corded old favorites whose work and

whose worth were well known. Even j without the attraction of novelty and the feature of the quartette with the j strange Russian costumes there would j have been satisfaction in plenty for! every one whether a lover of the best in music or not. i They seemed very much like a glee j club of familiar style, and some who

were accustomed to the ensemble ef fects of mandolins and guitars and I banjos were tempted to wonder where in lay the fame of those players from the steppes. They had not long to wait for the explanation. The players immediately after the great applause broke into a joyous wedding song, as sung by tie bridesmaids, to be followed by a bit of folk 1 OI a nance ng' dered whll th peasant women romp 1 ; t - t a ... about holding hands. And then appeared the quartet rendering the Russian National Song and a lore number that told of the youth frolicking across the fields to meet his sweetheart. In all of them whether it carried a breath of the soft spring wind that ; first warms the earth, or the riotous i joy of a midsummer holiday or a full throated burst of patriotism from j many hearts, or the majectis melody ! that seems typical of a national anlBm any wnere, me music iroui a heard here from instruments for the mosT l,arl "ire.

I . , j savea, l aris women nave gone to me otner extreme this season, by adopting with enthusiasm white and cream colored blouses. But these blouses are chiefly of one particular kind, the models of ine net, daintily embroidered, wrought with fine hand tucks, some-

ceedmg warmth of the wooly and fur- b,ood and brawn ln thf" ruling, jingry and fleecy materials which the I 'lng. ma8ure affected by the great

tailors are exploiting this fall. These net blouses most often open in front under some sort of frill, t t ; ' i, combined with an actual back opening, t The sleeves are invariably leng, with cuffs of some sort, possibly only tucked around the arm and with clusters of tiny horizontal tucks on the inner j arm seam at tne elbow to give elbow fulness and with enough vertical tucks in the sleeve to give it some slight substance or body so that it i will not be too limp. Very often a plaited frill of the net I fal1.8 over tne hand' finshinS the close i fitting cuff, and sometimes there is a coming and should be adopted warily. Charming little novelties of detail fere introduced into these net blouses despite their general family resemblance; and of course hand embroideries and fine laces can make the little trifles surprisingly expensive, though some of the simpler hand made models have quite as fhic an air as the more ornate. There are also many very modish blouses in soft white satin and white crepe. These are on the lines which the French call tailored, though, like the French tailored costumes, the models are far from having the severity once as80ciatied with the phrase "tailor-made." Some of the blouses, however, do to a certain evtent correspond with the New York idea of the tailor made shirtwaist in that they are simply platied or tucked from the shoulder, open down the front and have long sleevees. This severity is usually softened in one way or another, usually by delicious frils of net or lace. One popular model which is seen with variations in almost all of the exclusive importing houses, has a plaited frill of fine lace or net or chiffon crossing the front of the simply tailored white satin blouse diagonally. Little buttons and simulated buttonhole loops of the white satin are the only other trimming. This model is seen with white chiffon or net frill bordered by a nuarrow hem of black chiffon or net and with buttonholes bound narrowly in black. the touches of black with the white ! being very effective.

THE SPELL OF THE YUKON"-ROBERT SERVICE

A Poet Whose Product Is Distinguished for Virility and Strong Color Men Do Not Like to Have Their Weaknesses Exposed by Women.

BY ESTHER GRIFFIN WHITE. Verses," is a small volume issued by Edward Stern and Company, of Philadelphia, and is written by Robert V. Service. This is the sort of supposed poetic utterance that men like. Because, presumably, it tells the truth about themselvesAnd, if it is the truth, and there is no one to say that it is not, since they themselves admit it. men will not only i tolerate it, but quote it delightedly. j This is because it was written by a j man. One of themselves. It is said that no woman novelist ever created a real man. Only the things women think are men. This is possibly said by masculine book reviewers and essayists, or even by those astu'e critics who are to be i-jiouna on every other block in any No more realistic pictures of men j were ever painted than by Jane Austen. a genius of a microscopic subjtlety and a sardonic appreciation of social values that has never been sur- , ! passed among (he creators of fiction.

,r! v . . . . I t His roughnesses are sophisticated,

rather than otherwise, and do not gtxe;g ine impress oi cruany so mucn as on the country of which he writes. His profanities have the proper mise en scene, so to speak, and his linguistic garishness that of the life of which he writes. j He is. however, much given to Poes-; que alliterations and is remarkably clever in this form of poetic accent, j However there is a lot of virility and ; swing about Service's verse and he I tells the truth about men as has been said. This in instance: i "For life is not the thing we thought. and not the thins we plan; nd Woman, in a bitter world, must do the best she can j Must yield the stroke, and bear the j yoke, and serve the will of man; j "And though you know he loves you' so and set you on love's throne; ) Yet let your eyes but mock his sighs, and let your heart be stone. Lest you be left (as 1 was left) attainted and alone. From love's close kiss to hell's abyss is one sheer flight 1 trow, And wedding-ring and bridal bell are will-o'-wisps of woe, And 'tis not wise to love too well, and this all women know. And this: "Fate has written a tragedy; its name is "The Human Heart." The Theater is the House of Life, Woman's the mummer's part; The Devil enters the prompter's box and the play is ready to start." j Service has his moments of a feeling ifor the picturesque as evidenced in The Pines: "We sleep in the sleep of ages, the bleak, barbarian pines; The grey moss drapes us like sages, and closer we lock our lines, And deeper we clutch through the gelid gloom where never a sunbeam shines. The fondness of Service for bizarre words is here illustrated a certain 1 affectation that sometimes spoils his : effects. The spirit of the wanderlust is "In the Call of the Wild:" "They have cradled you in custom, they have primed you with their preaching, They have soaked you in convention through and through; i They have put you in a show-case; , you're a credit to their teaching . But can't you hear the wild? it's calling you. (Let us probe the silent places, let us j seek what luck betide us; Let us journey to a lonely land I know, j There's a whisper on the night-wind, j there's a sky agleam to guide us, i And the wild is calling, calling let us 8 " . I That Service's gifts are lyric when j be so essays is evidenced by "Unforgotten." "1 know a garden where the lillies gleam. And one who lingers in the sunshine there; She is than white-stoled lily far more fair, And oh, her eyes are heaven-lit with dream! "I know a garret, cold and dark and drear, And one who toils and toils with tireless pen, Until his brave, sad eyes grow weary then He sees the stars, pale, silent as a seer. "And ah, it's strange; for desolate and

dim. Between these two

there rolls an ocean wide; Yet he is in the garden by her aide (And she is In the garret there with i him." If Service's art has not exploited the ' things of the spirit he has done no violence to its finer essence in treating life broadly and painting it in bold, garish strokes. It produces the sort of effect of certain Russian ; , 1 . . ExoosiUon-there are no i . uunuits uiuv suarp nun vi vretmisc. Good form Announcing an Engagement Polly declared she must have some unusual way of announcing her engagement, so after much careful thought this was evolved: The twenty special friends were asked for a thimble party, and there was uothlng doing until refreshments were served. Then each guest found a little envelope on the rlate. and the hostess explained that inside there would be found a jumbled lot of letters, that the letters of each color would spell one word, and there was just one word in each envelope, and all were the same color in each enrelope. so each one made their word, and the light gradually dawned as the story was told by the guests putting their words together. It was great fun and ended the afternoon in a most happy manner, as the j little bride elect was a great farorlte, I nnd she was fairly beaming when all j began to offer good wishes and wanted to know all about it" Good Form In Table 8etting. At luncheon, tea or supper a smalt plate and knife are placed beside the larger one. On this are placed the bread and butter, which should be spread ln sinall portions of a mouthful. The dinner roll Is taken from the napkin and laid on the cloth at the right side of the plate. Cake may be eaten after the same manner as bread, broken off in monthfuls and conveyed to the month by the fingers or with a fork. The latter is preferable, especially In the case of a moist cake or one with a soft filling. Corn on the cob is a finger food, requiring considerable skill to dispose of with anything resembling grace. An orange, like corn on the cob. requires skillfnl handling. A good way Is to cut it ln quarters, peel each quarter, split them again in half and press out the seeds, thus achieving ft comfortable mouthful. Restaurant Etiquette. ' Those who hare dined In restaurants or hotels habitually will find that they hare fallen into many unpleasant little ways, permissible possibly toward a landlord, but not toward a hostess. They feel that they have the privilege both to criticise openly and to Imply criticism either of the food Itself or of the wsy in which It is served. Women who cherish the ambition of making poor, forlorn habitues of hotels happy with "home cooking" have their hopes dashed by this ungracious habit. Let those, too. who have fallen Into the habit of dipping a spoon or fork into a glass of water at a restaurant and then wiping it on a napkin before using it beware of those momenta when they become deeply absorbed, In conversation at the house of a friend or even at the home table. Could any habit be more insulting to a hostess! Harper's Baxar. Hudson. O., has a school teacher at the age of eighty-one, who is believed to be the oldest teacher in the country in active service.
