of Japanese parasol. Vice President
Hobart's wife bought the very first one.
No doubt every woman in the admins
tration will have one before the season
advances far. Tho frame is fiat and COW
cred with accordion plated silk. The
sticks arc all plain, straight, natural
wood, and the very latest colors are the
different shades Of purple, shading from
pink lilac to deep, rich, reddish puppies
and poppy color, which last is the rage
i'll millinery as we'll as i'll parasols.
The next newest thing is made of
American silk and was designed by an
American. The frame is almost canopy
Ill shape, being quite deep, and is covered
with plain taffeta or grosgrain i'll purple,
bright green, or poppy. These are used
almost exclusively with white piquo
gowns and give charming dash of color
to dark tailor made gown. White
chiffon and duchess lace parasols hold
their own for carriage wear, though the
styles i'll both have changed. One Of
chiffon has the material tucked and
pulled Oh, instead of put on i'll bill
lows, as it was last season, and is
finished at the edge with applique and
fall of chiffon. Another favorite is
made of SHRED white chiffon and has
narrow yellow valenciennes lace run
ming from the ferrule to each rib. This
imported full dress parasol is novelty.
1t is made of alternate puffings of surah
and embroidered mousscline do solo,
cufving from tho edge to the ferrule.
The crisscross effect is striking.
Women who understand the art of
dressing always try their parasols on
just as they do their hats before buying,
and it is an excellent plan, for what
would pale, sallow woman look like
under trying green's and reds and pur-
pies? She should wear something in
black or some neutral tint, while women
with fine coloring have their beauty en-
HANGED by vivid shades.
Plain sticks prevail, but there are
new things in fancy handles. One of the
most effective is illuminated enamel on
copper. Handles of plain gun metal are
exceedingly stylish for black sun UNI
brellas and have the advantage of being
very light. Some are studded with gen.
uine pearls They are adjustable, so
that ono may remove the handle when
she wishes to check her umbrella or
leave it where she is apt to forget it.
Carved burnt ivory handles are as fash
ionable as ever, and this season they are
embellished with single large garnet,

think so:
II was almost noon on Christmas day
when the through express pulled into
Starvation Junction six hours late.
Desolate and ,lreary as the station APP
peared. the travel-worn and hungry
passengers were glad to see it, as they
had been informed they could procure
refreshments on their arrival. as no
other opportunity had presented itself
to satisfy their hunger since the pre-
vious day.
The storm which began in the night
had developed into the unmistakable
blizzard SO much hated and feared by
all who travel by rail. The engine had
done all that iron and steam could do
against its inveterate fox. but in spite Of
gallant efforts the blizzard seemed to be
getting the best Of the battle, and for
some time before the train pulled up at
the station the iron lungs of the engine
seemed to labor with a painful effort as
It plowed its way through the drifts.
The station was equipped with the
usual lunch counter, upon which was
displayed the uninviting and meager
fare which generally greets the travel
ing public at such institutions. There
were sandwiches for those who could
afford to pay ten cents for the small
suspicion of the flag end OF some old
remnant OF fat mercifully hidden be-
tween two slices of stale bread. There
were beans-baked beans. hard, dry
and musty, which could be had for c5
cents; ten cents for two indigestib!e
looking doughnuts; five cents apiece for
eggs-boiled eggs. boiled hard. boiled
until they were black and blue, boilel
to the consistency of an india-rubbcr
ball. Nobody could tell how long those
eggs have been boiled. say have, be-
cause probably most Of them are doing
duty yet on that lunch counter. And
then there was pie-at least something
that went by that title-and coffee,
too. that would be recognized only by
the name.
It often happens under circumstances
Of this nature that there are some who
have not started on their journey with
the expectation of being put to ex-
ira expense. and are consequently not
for the exorbitant charges Of
the railway lunch counter, and are
therefore placed in a very unpleasant
Among the crowd Of hungry mortals
who gathered in the diugy station were
