It Is a very amusing and whimsical
little sketch which Violet Hunt has
written in 1.-THE Human Interest. A
Study In Incompatibilit,es." She does
not pretend to serious study of any
problem. but incidentally there are a
few problems In the book which behind
the veil Of light and anus ng satire
awaken some serious interest. It is a
gay little thing with a sombre back

White Moose.

The white moose of Minnesota is at
it again. Like the dapped tiger in
Killings inimitable story, this beast
makes his spectral appearance at I'M
expected times and at irrecu'ar inter-
walls, and when reported there is bounl
to be commotion. Unlike the tiger,
the advent of the white moose is not =
sign Of trouble, but it is the sign Of
much unrest and activity For every
rifle owner in Minnesota has heard the
story since his babyhood, and would
swap a finger for that moose without
stopping to think.
This white moose is said to be a
monster. There never was moose of
any color since the world began so big.
1t is a bull, of course. and is credited
with the speed of hurricane.
And now the question arises, asst has
often arisen before, is there any white
moose? 1t is safer to ask the question
here in New York than out In the Min
nesota woods, where thousands of ma
tives know people who have seen it.
Still, 1t will strike you as singular that
search as you may you will never find
man who saw the white moose with
his own eyes. So far as evidence 10
concerned he is n creature of runner
Nevertheless, there are hundreds now
starting into the woods for the win
ter shooting who openly express the
hope of a shot at the white moose

Nearly every town Of five thousand
or more inhabitants has several places
where laundry packages are received
and delivered. These places are gener-

and DO not open them until seven or
half-past seven in the morning.

Ladies' Circular Skirt,

It is generally understood that plaids,
especially the large plaids that are
worn this season, show off to better
advantage when made up on the bias
in Il circular skirt. The illustration
gives model skirt designed principally
fer plaid materials. 1t is OF circular
shaping, fits perfectly smooth across
the front and over the hips TO the CEN
TIRE back. The upper part is sheath fit
ting but from the knee down the skirt
flares stylishly and falls in graceful
folds toward the back. The single box
plait is applied narrow at the waist
line but flares toward the bottom,
where 1t trains slightly. The close adj
jUstment at the UPPER portion of this
skirt gives much the same effect as
