Two exquisite evening gowns have just been fashioned by a famous Parisian designer tor an American patron. One has a tight fitting princess underdress of rose pink satin, over which is loosely placed an Empire robe of transparent cream gauze encrusted at frequent intervals over its surface with leaves and flowers of black velvet embroidered on with tiny pink beads; between these black motifs appear hand painted clusters of pale pink roses with their green leaves. Round the top of the short Empire bodice fine black lace is draped; it is edged along the top with a strip of glittering pink bead passementerie, while the band that holds the bodice in under the bust Is embroidered with the black velvet and pink beads; a large cluster of roses is set at the left sheulder and the sleeves are a short puff of the black lace falling on the arm and a strap over the shoulder of bead trimming.

The skirt is finished with several frills, and the combination of black, white and pink is exceedingly effective. The other gown Is composed of white satin veiled with black net embroidered with paillettes. Over the white satin bodice are drawn scarfs or black and white tulle fastened with clusters of lilies of the valley. DAILY MENU. THURSDAY BREAKFAST.

While in Iceland Helga in sent back to her parents in Norway, and in punishment for a serious indiscretion is struck down by his master and left for dead. His friends save him and Helga srr.uggleb him away on the ship. Alwin reiums disguised by a black wig as a Norman knight, and, cleverly aided by his faithful friends. Llet welcomes him as an honored visitor. Then Lief sets out on a voyage of discovery with a crew of thirty five picked men in an open boat as before.

ha come in of the discovery of land vet further west than G. eenlar.ct ana tne vikings were always ready to go anywhere and do anything for the sake of adventure and dlscoverv. Alwin (as Robert of Normandy) goes along and Helga, who has secretly returned, smuggles herself on board. How Columbus Was Anticipated by the Vikings. The rest of the story describes how the hardv explorers made the coast of America and established a winter camp, calling the country Vinland.

Whether this was Finland or much further south is one of the delightful problems of history; all we know for certain is that they found grapes in abundance and the winter was quite mild up to December. The folio. ving quotation from the translation of Du Chaillu, is the locus clas sicus for the legend of the first discovery of America: Thev sailed toward this land, and came to an island Ivlna north of it. and went ashore In tine weather and looked round. They found (lew on the grass, and touched It with their hands, and put it to their mouths, and It seemed to them that thev had never tasted anything so sweet as tats itew.

Then thev went on board and Failed into tne channel, which was between the island and the cape which ran north from the mainland. Tne passer the cape; sailing in a westerly direction. Jr. erv shallow, and their snip eni iirnnnl and at ebb tide the sea was far out I from the ship. But they were so anxiuus to set ashore that they could not wait till the nlgn waiet reached their ship, ana ran out ioe where a river (lowed from a lake.

When the hign water set their ship afloat they took their hoat and rowed to the ship and towed It up the river Into the lake. There they east anchor, and took their leather bags ashore, and there built booths. FLATEYJARHOK. During the winter months spent in this Infant colony numerous adventurers befall the hero, and "it is all as fresh and fascinating as "Robinson Crusoe." Alwin has risked his life by returning disguise on the chance ot doing something which shall earn Lief's pardon and esteem, and the opportunity at last occurs. None of the Vikings, of course, could read or write they could never have accomplished the things they did it they had been "educated" and these explorers had to trust entirely to their memory for the mass of intricate details go to the making of a map.

On one of their trips Lief is rehearsing the many landmarks of which, in the absence of compass and sextant, geography was memorized, when in a fine psychological moment he cries: "A man who has no more than a trained hody is of less account than a beast'. My brain Is nearlv bursting with the details which I have cont ht to remember concernlne these discoveries. and vet what assurance have I that I have got even half of them correct? And even though I relate everv fact as truly as the Holy Book Itself. ...111 .1.. 1, nf tt he rhe time it has passed through a hundred sottish brains in Green land tell you.

mis twb u. cloak wear is nearer to what it was first than that tale will be after swinish mouths have ehewd upon it for a day. It is the curse of the old gods upon the heathen. And I fling my curse back at them, for the chains they have hung on mv free hands and the beast dumbness with which they have gagged my man mourn. Here is Alwin's opportunity; a relative of the scholarly King Alfred, he can write.

In the red wine of the country, in the midst of a barbarian revel, he takes down the history of the discovery of America as dictated by his chief. Then he reveals his identity and his love for Helga. Lief pardons him; he had suspected him from the first. "Befooling and bejuggling were the drinks vou prepared for me," he says in good matured irony. "Was it not just that you should learn from experience how sour a taste they have in the mouth?" It may be that I found entertainment in playing you like a fish on a line, or it may be that I became uncertain of the honor of the man whom I wished to place highest in my friendship, and so deemed it wisest to remain under cover until he should reveal all the hidden parts of his nature." The story, from beginning to end.

Ms full of movement and dialogue. Except for the brief and spirited "Foreword" and the opening page, there is scarcely a word of digression in the whole book. The spirit of the times is elemental mascullneness; its barbarity, its daring are not told, but tells itself in the words and actions of the characters. Yet the author makes her acknowledgments to no fewer than a score of Norse antiquarians, and it is obvious that she has studied them all, verifying every little detail, such as the armor, the ship's, the architecture, the furniture of the Vikings with the consciousness of the artist. So she ntcrest EUCHBE FOB NUESERY.

"The Thrall of Lief the Lucky" is at once a grand boys' book, a winsome love story, and one of the best constructed historical romances that has appeared in America in some years. Primarily it is a boy's book of adventure with the classic flavor; the historical color and spirit of the tenth century Miss Ottilie Liljencrantz. in Northern Europe and the mental attitude and physical features of the Viking rovers ot Norway have been recovered from ancient legend with so much fidelity and portrayed with so much verisimilitude that older readers will willingly accord to Miss Liljencrantz the merit of having produced a work 01 unusual art in the realm of historical romance. It is no small accomplishment to make history which is almost mythical live again with distinctiveness and actuality; but it is still rarer to find this skill in the application of research combined with the constructive imagination necessary to make a moving and attractive story. That "The Thrall of Lief the Lucky" has these qualities, a brief synopsis of the plot will show; Lief the Lucky is a famous Viking chief, the son of a Norwegian named Eric, who founded the first colony Greenland.

He is one of the bodyguard King Olaf of Trondhjem, in Norway, but commands his own ship's crew, wdiich live in a camp by themselves. In his charge is a foster daughter named Helga. who, escaped from the thrall of her Icelandic mother, has become a shield maiden, a young woman who dresses in short kirtles and" armor and shares the adventures of the men. Riding into Trondhjem one day she sees in a trader's booth a gang of prisoners of war who are put up for sale as slaves (thralls) like any other chattel. One of these catches her attention and she buys him: it is Alwin, theison of the English earl of Northurubria.

Alwin is the hero of the story. Lief is the dominant figure; a strong, stern, enterprising chief, whose character is portrayed with admirable force, so that he lives before us, not a heroic dummy in chain mail and winged helmet, but a commanding figure with the keen intellect of a modern adventurer who has more energy than education. Lief is commissioned by King Olaf to carry the new religion of Christianity to the Itelaudic colony. In what nowadays we should call an open boat, the little crew of fifty adventurers set sail with perfect confidence, make nothing of lying up for weeks among the icebergs and safely reach the port also given namely, "When My Pa Was Young," The souvenir programme was beautifully gotten up. On the cover the letters in green and gold were entwined on a white background and appropriate prose and verse quotations were interspersed throughout the four pages of the booklet which was bound In white bristol board, and tied with white ribbon.

The result is a hook which will probably live among the classics of juvenile literature: while even for the ephemeral novel reader it deserves an immediate popularity as a good romance with a good plot. Another word of praise is due to the illustrations. There are 'six of them, by Troy and Margaret West Kinney, and they are quite exceptional for spirit, drawing and brilliant color. (Chicago, A. C.

SLENDERNESS A NECESSITY If One Would Look Well in the New Shirt Waists. If thin girls were the style in the fall they are absolutely the necessity now.

The waists are cut so full that they will allow an ounce of fat and the woman with too much avoirdupois must hasten to get rid of it. She will look unsightly in the shirt waists that are being brought out. The round waist is advised for all who are not slim. This waist is brought to a point in front, but not to the exaggerated point known aa tbe French point. This.

very long point is a mistake for the fat woman, though she is the one of all women who may be convinced that she can wear it. Girls of great slenderness are wickedly wearing the very short waisted shirt waist. They know that they can do it, but that it will look funny on the fat sister. None of the new models show the very long point, though all are longer in the front than in the bock. They are pulled down a little, that is all, and fastened low.

This is accomplished by means of the dress skirt, which is caught down with the corset hook or other contrivance, thus making the I waist seem longer. I There is a charming waist that is made i in the pastel colors, pale pink, pale blue, pale grav and butter color. It is really so serviceable and so wen ituapivu uv occasions that a dozen of it would not be too many in this summer's wardrobe. Its pattern Is a very simple blouse and its only trimming is needlework insertion. This can be bought, for it need not be hand made, and the manner of placing it in the waist is one that shows it off well.

One wide strip of the insertion extends from under the chin, right down the front of the waist to the belt. Then comes a cluster of narrow tucks. Then a wide hand of needlework reaching to the armholes. Thus the front of the waist is almost exclusively of the insertion, but it has just enough of the cambric to maintain its Bhape and body. Somebody, it may have been the spring poet has discovered that the shirt waist makes woman look younger.

Perhaps woman herself has discovered this long ago and that is the reason why she wears it so continually. VSer fa bus! Rledel. Miss May, Miss Hoyt. Mrs. lfs Hopson Mrs.

Cornelius Zabriskie, president of the State Federation; "A Glance Into the Future," Mrs. Franklin W. Hooper, president of the Brooklyn Wom sn Club.
