Inconsistency
BY WILLIAM RUSTIN

When Mrs. Chester Taylor adopted
her dead brothers eldest daughter FL
sic, her friends discussed the matter
thoroughly and from various view.
points.
1t was folly, said one, for woman
of Mrs. Taylor's age to burden herself
with an Uniformed, half educated girl.
Another declared that young people
around the silent, conservative Taylor
residence would add ten years to the
life of its mistress. But Optimists and
pessimists alike shook their heads
when introduced to Elsie, who proved
to be hoidenish girl, long and peaked.
with angles that could not be hidden
even by the triumphs Of the dressmak-
ing art ordered by her generous rela-
tive. Elsie was sixteen.
Mrs. Taylor congratulated herself up
on being graceful but never tiresome
invalid. Her ailments required little
treatment aside from change Of ell
mate ut stated intervals. In the winter
she sought the magnolia laden brcezes
of the south. In the summer she fed
to quiet resorts in mountainous regions
even as far west as Colorado or as far
north rs Canada, and twice she ran
over to Carlsbad, With her went Elsie
and the governess.
When ut last the twain-fOr the gov
erness was no longer required-put In
appearance at the Tuxedo Springs, its
habitucs, particularly the women who
had criticised so severely the gauche
young girl who had sought the kindly
protection Of her only living relative,
stared and-gossiped.
The angles were still there, but they
were softened, The girl had style,
an individuality, entirely her own. And
how she did wear her gowns, marvels
of Partisan shops! Bizarre CONNECTIONS
in red were her favOrites, and when
she fitted through corridors and piaz-
zas or dashed over tennis course and
golf links she was great splash of
color against the neutral young wOm-
en- who shared the resorts pleasures
with her.
The women, from watching her In
wonder, became Jealous and not with
out cause. She took her pick of the
men and left what she could not han
die, few enough In number, for the
other members Of her sex. There was
spite in the feminine gossip. The men
liked her, so said the porch brigade,
but they did not take her seriously.
She was the sort to laugh with, joke
with, dance with, bOat with, fish with,
flirt with, but-marry? Well, hardly!
And the men themselves looked at the

are very artistically disposed and a
large rosette of the same is placed at the
left side. The sleeves are remarkable for
their novelty and oddity. All the stitch
ing is done with Corticilli silk.
For shirt waists pongee is especially
recommended and 1t is very fetching, made
up with bands of ecru embroidery, or
over color with heavy lace yoke
This material is particularly suitable for
the Gibson and Duchess waists, the former
giving the broad shouldered effect so
much sought after just now, in the shape
of folds or tucks extending over the
shoulder, the latter fastening under a
double fly and showing fronts richly en-
broidered with Corticell wash imbroidey
silk The favored color in pongee is the
natural ecru tint, although it can also
be procured in different shades. Mercer
lied fabrics of all kinds will be extensively
worn. the process having been vastly i'm
proved since it was FIRST brought upon
the market, and all sorts of silk and linen
mixtures are greatly in vogue.

Badge Denotine Rank in r. A.

tFrom Wednesdays Daily.l
w. w. Epps of this city this morning
received valuable gift in the form of
a magnificent gold badge emblematic
of his rank in the Royal Arcanum. Mr..
Epps, few months ago, completed his
second term of Office as grand regent
of the order in Iowa, and IN recogni-
ton of his services and ability the
members of the grand council, of
which he was last year the head, have
presented him with this splendid gold
badge. The ornament is rich in work
manship and design. The upper sec
ton is a gold crown, under which is
an enameled circle in which are the
mystic figures Of the order, "1105." A
gold star depends from this, section of
the medal, on the reverse side of
which are the words, Presented by
the Grand Council of Iowa to w. w.
Epps, P. G. R." Mr.. Epps is justly
proud of the gift, which is tribute to
his efficiency in office and demon
stration of the fact that he is held in
high regard among his fellow lodge
men.
