Indication of Fconomic
Intelligence at Least
By lsaac Goldberg, Boston, Mass,
is also, in this case, the spice of profits. The designers, without having
ever read Carlyle’s “Sartor Resartus,” have nevertheless their own philoso
phy of clothes, and were you to catch them in an amiable mood they would
talk somewhat in the following fashion:
“If there were no styles people could always wear the same material,
until the goods wore out. That would mean less work for dressmakers
and tailors in general. Prices could not then be boosted because of popu
lar demand for any reigning mode. Besides, people want something new
all the time and would make it themselves were we not to do it for them.”
So that fashions, considered in this light, show economic intelligence
on the part of the originators,
From the point of view of those who merely ape what is in style,
regardless of how it becomes their particular person, fashions do not show
intelligence. * And it must be confessed that this category contains by
far the largest number. They say that clothes make the man, That may
well be, but how often*do clothes unmake the woman! If long lines come
into style the first one to make a dash after the vogue will be your woman
with an 18-inch. waist and a figure that looks like a letter T' with the top
left off. As if her own self were not long line enough! Or let us imagine
the opposite case, the coming into fashion of round lines. Enter the
corpulent woman, and with a nonchalance that is at times pitiable she
becomes stylish by adding to her natural obesity the optical illusion of
lines that scem to add pounds to her weight.
But the women' are by no means alone as regards the fashion mania.
Of late years there has been a decided tendency to introduce a variety in
men’s clothes almost as great as in women’s. Every season brings its new
coats, new hats, new ties; now the coat is loose, now tight. And when the
designers exhaust their prolific store, back turn the fashions to those of
years ago, and what we would laugh at in a picture book of 1870 we wear
proudly to dinner. And consider the days of knee breeches and silk stock
ings for men, with George Washington as a good example. Go further
back still and some of you will make the startling discovery that before
modern business developed men were quite as vain with their clothes as
are women. And while we are in a scientific mood, it might be well to
point out that with the entrance of more and more women into the busi
ness and professional world voices of revolt against parrot fashion are
being heard on all sides. °
It is not hard to imagine a time when clothes will be raised to the
dignity of a fine art. For it is nothing less than art when a competent
dressmaker originates and fashions a gown for a particular individual.
City People Have
Most Per&ct Teeth
By Dr. Woods Hutchinson, New York
tal clinic among them. To take the situation as we actually find it, the
whitest, evenest, most beautiful and enduring sets of teeth to be seen any
where in the world today are right here in these United States, among
people who have had toothbrushes and good dental care from their ‘chil
hood years.
The poorest, blackest, most broken and earliest decaying teeth#are
to be found in fishing villages and sand barrens and mountain valleys and
remote, poverty-stricken country districts.
Modern city teeth may require some scrubbing and filling, but they
look better and chew better and harbor fewer “bugs” and last longer than
any others yet invented or discovered and examined in thousands during
life by competent experts.
Some negroes and Indians, for instance, have wonderful teeth, but
the majority of them suffer fearfully from toothache, caries, gum
abscess and all the faults of civilized teeth.
Brush without ceasing, thoroughly, gums as well as teeth, after every
meal and at bedtime, and you can pretty certainly bank upon it that your
teeth will stay by you until sixty, sixty-five or seventy. You will probably
lose a few, even with the best of care, for some teeth are born soft and
pitted, and need filling almost as soon as they cut the gum; but you'll
have plenty left to anchor to, and your dental arches will be “disfigured
but still in the ring” until you yourself “throw up the sponge.”
E.ssential Element in
Vacation Is Change
By Dr. 1. J. Murphy, St. Paul, Minn.
ticular season or an exact place are not the important items in one’s vaca
tion. The essential element is a change.
The more complete the change, environmental and occupational, the
better. Rest and moderation should be the rule. Many people do not
know how to take a vacation, but return more nearly nerve-wrecked than
when they set out. They overtravel, overwork, overdo. Rest and relaxa
tion, a “breathing spell” for an overtaxed mind and body to catch up with
themselves, should be the aim.
Upon your return, in order to retain some of the benefits derived from
the vacation, endeavor to avoid that almost universal American condi
tion—high tension. It is possible and feasible to carry some of the calm
and poise of the vacation season into your everyday work.
The continuous high pressure and speed that the average American
works under are unnatural and unnecessary.
Go easy and you will last longer and come out ahead in the end. Just
calm yourself.

Now that industry has become fash
ionable and everyone is knitting or
crocheting or doing some sort of
needlework, the evidences of the
“keep-busy” fad blossom out in all di
rections. The family, from baby to
grandma, revels in pretty things in
the way of dress accessories, and the
house is decked out with fine spe
cimens of needlecraft.
Among the most successful of all
the articles knitted or crocheted, baby
bonnets, hats for little girls, and bou
doir caps and hats for grown-ups tes
tify to the adaptability of this kind of
work to headwear. Baby bonnets,
either knitted or crocheted of silk,
have long been among the coveted
luxuries that each mother manages
somehow to secure. They are very
durable and very beautiful. Crocheted
headwear is somewhat expensive, and
one must either have the time and
knowledge of the work required, to
make it, or be prepared to pay the
price which elegant, handmade things
will bring.
The small knitted hat of silk shown
n the picture is moderately pricyd at
four or five dollars. It is knitted of
heavy silk thread in cream color, and
consists of a cap which covers the
crown of the head, and a frill of lace,
knitted of the same silk as the cap.
It is finished with a tassel made of the
silk.

Created for those whose needs de
mand hats for the period between two
geasons are hats made for the warm,
bright days of early autumn, with an
eye to the frost that may overtake
them in the midst of their usefulness.
Here are three of them, in fashionable
black and white. They will golve the
problem of the woman who feels that
it is too late for the purchase of a sum
mer hat and altogether too early to
wear one belonging to wintertime,
She will find these Jjust suited to
bridging over the interval between two
Beasons,
Very popular with the younger peo
ple, small turbans are made in combi
nations of black velvet with white
gllk or satin and trimmed with fancy
feathers or wings. The pretty exam
ple shown in the plcture has a coronet
of velvet and a crown of satin. White
wings, in the smart pose, on the
crown, are the only trimming used and
all that is needed.
One of the new wide and drooping
brimmed shapes may be made of silk
or velvet or of the two combined. It
reflects the fad for needlework in its
decoration, Parallel rows of long
Fascinating boudoir caps are made
by crocheting heavy silk thread in an
open design. They are shaped like
the caps made for infants, and fin
ished with crocheted shell or scal
lops about the edge. Ribbon is run
in them about the face and across the
back. It fits the cap to the head and
decorates it at the same time.
Crocheted hats are made of silk
fiber, chenille, or wool, and are very
smart for motor wear, for traveling,
and for the street. Fine wire is used
in shaping them, and they are made
by professional workwomen who un
derstand how to conceal the wire in
the crocheted stitches.
About Girdles.
Girdles which used to encircle mi
lady’s dainty waist are not to be found
in that region this season. They have
moved upward, most of them, to give
the new high-waisted effect. From
this high position they are apt to wan
der in and out of draperies, often
dreeping under the full skirt to tie in
part at the front or back of the

loops falling directly under each other,
and in the end of each loop was
caught a full-blown pink rose. An
other girdle of sulphur yellow was 8o
completely hidden by the chiffon over

presence on the dress.
stitches made of heavy white silk
adorn the crown, and a single row fin
ishes the brim-edge. A band of velvet
ribbon confines the crown, and a but
terfly of white crystal beads suggests
a bit of frost painting. This Is a beau
tiful and unusual development of the
pleture hat.
Suited to the matron as well as to
the younger woman, the sailor hat of
white corduroy and satin, faced with
black velvet, is of the sort that may
be worn anywhere. The upper brim
and top crown are of corduroy, and
the side crown is covered with satin
laid in folds. Odd, new ornaments of
beadg and curving ribs of feathers, or
“feelers,” as they are called, are ap
plied to the crown.

LESSON FOR AUGUST 29
GOD'S CARE OF ELIJAH.
LESSON TEXT-I Kings 17:1-16.
GOLDEN TEXT-Casting all your anx
lety upon him, because he careth for you.
I Peter S:T R. V.
We now skip thirty to forty years
to consider the first of those great
prophets whose lives are recorded at
length. Samuel and David fought ani
mals, armies and giants, but these men
fought engagements in the moral and
spiritual realm of equal and greater
importance. Emphasize Elijah as a
real live flesh-and-blood hero. His
work was with the northern kingdom
and he probably first met Ahab at Sa
maria, his capital in 912 B. C. (?) The
Moabite stone (A. D. 1868) is a re
markable confirmation of the Bible
story of this period.
I. The Challenge, v. 1. The lesson
fs a great illustration of faith. Sin
had again made vast inroads upon the
people (ch. 16:30-33) and this “man ot
the hour,” whose name means ‘“Jeho
vah My Strength,” (1) saw the condi
tions; (2) responded to the need, and
(3) had faith in his cause because it
was that of Jehovah,- The source of
his faith was the word of the Lord
God (Deut. 11:18; 32:20). He that
“liveth” and before whom the prophet
stood in daily, hourly communication.
Elijah was a man with a mission
(Matt. 28:19) who trusted in God and
considered it safe to obey. His power,
“according to my word,” was in ratio
according to his life of faith (Rom.
10:17). He was also a man of prayer
James 6:17) and showed his faith by
his works (James 2:17, 20, 26).
11. The Command, vv. 2-7. Elijah's
faith was not audacious. He took each
step as commanded by God (v. 2).
There is a time for seeming retreat
as well as for the spectacular charge.
Elijah’s first place of testing was
“Cherith,” a gorge to the east of the
river Jordan. This command was con
trary to human reason. “Would it not
soon be involved in his prophesied
drought?”
Again, ravens frequently feed upon
carrion, and he knew all the regula
tions regarding cleanness. Thus to be
secluded would prevent his observing
the effect of the drought upon both
king and people. Still the command is
explicit. It was ‘“there” (v. 4), and
there only, that Jehovah was to save.
Theiimighcle:caf . aaving wan: 0, be
wrought "‘?’ fi.fwg Jve ol
means. “So he went” Having faced
the peril, God hid him to preserve him,
and at the proper time God also re
vealed him (ch. 18:12). It was a daily
testing for Elijah at Cherith, thus to
be fed and to see the water evaporat
ing, but it was a time of communion
and after the brook was dry there
came a new command (vv. 8,9). |
111, The Continued Deliverance, vv.‘
8-16. Zarephath was (Luke 4:26) m‘
the dominions of Jezebel's father, on |
the coast of the Mediterranean sea be- ‘
tween Tyre and Sidon, a dangerous
journey for Elijah through Ahab's
kingdom (ch, 18:10). The word Zare
phath means “smelting furnace,” and
it too was suffering from this same
famine. Commanded to hide in Cherith
Elijah is told ter “dwell” in Zarephath |
and that a widow was to be the agent
to supply his need. Again Elijah’s
pride had to be overcome for there
were abundant reasons for disliking
such a journey, such an abiding place
and such a dependence upon a poor
widow. Elijah, however, “arose and
went,” a continuance of his life of
obedience. He first asked for water
and as she went he added his request
for food. It was a particular widow to
whom he was sent (Luke 4:25-27) and
through her God was ready to work a
miracle of salvation on his behalf.
Though about to prepare what she
thought was to be her own and her
son's last meal (v, 12), yet she at once
proceeds to obey the command of the
man of God as it was conditioned upon
the word of Jehovah (v, 14). God,
through his prophets, has commanded
us, given us assurance and promised
to sustain (Phil. 4:19), yet we hesi
tate. “She went and did” the seem
ing impossible, but according to the
word of command, and those of “her
house did eat many days.” Obedience
saved her own, her son's and the
prophet’s lives, There {8 sound philoso
phy in Prov. 11:24 which found fits
complete fulfillment in Jesus who
“came not to be ministered unto but
to minister,” Read carefully Prov.
3:7-10 and II Cor, 9:6-11, As with the
Israclites in the wilderness the supply
was only from day to day (v. 16) noth
ing ahead, no accumulation, yet a per
petual supply because based on “the
word of the Lord” (v, 16),
God worked this miracle: (1) to up
hold and to preserve Lis chosen mes
