TWO RFSCUFSI

1t was near midnight, when the tel
ephone in the castle of Zsaby began to
ring sharply and excitedly. Baron Sc.
bastian Petrovics. tthe owner of Zsaby.
had not yet retired, but was deep in
a book. He hurried to the telephone.
Halo! Petrovics. What can do for
you, countess?"
An excited female voice, the sobbin3
of which betrayed only too plainly that
something had happened, replied:
Are you there, baron. hank God.
you are at home. Please come over at
once; burglars are breaking into the
house!"
II will come Immediately" the
baron shouted into the telephone

ten minutes! Be brave. countess!"
He did not wait for the answer;
snatching his hat, revolver and sword.
he rushed out of the room, swung him.
self on his horse and called to his
men: Follow me as fast as you cant"
He spurred his horse and galloped
toward Gyongy.
Gyongy was the property of Coun-
tetss Gulacsy, separated from Zsaby
only by narrow strip of woodland.
The owners of the two castles led
retired life, the baron from necessity,
for his finances did not allow him to
continue the extravagant life he had
led In first youth; the countess from
a hatred Of people which had induced
her to take refuge in this secluded
spot. Her marriage had not been a
happy one, and her husbands conduct
had made the thought of men hateful
to her. 1t was only certain commun-
ity of interests which had brought her
and the baron together. They were
neighbors, and could not avoid a meet
ing from time to time. Gradually she
became accustomed to Petrovics, who
was an excellent companion and knew
how to make time pass in pleasant
conversation.
Once he had said to the countess:
"You see, countess, you make me hap
py when you allow me to amuse and
entertain you. If you are willing. we
can arrange things so that may hear
your voice even when it rains, or in
the long winter evenings whenever
you would enjoy friendly talk"
"You know, baron" the countess had
interrupted, that I am no friend of
society. You would often seek me in
vain. and find only Nine. Won Csongay,
my companion and friend"
"But if you will give your permits
sion, / will have a telephone connec.
ton made between Zsaby and Gyongy.
so that you can call me when you
please"
The young woman smiled and made
no objection. Then the devils ma
chine" as the servants called it, was
introduced; but up to the time this
story opens no one had as yet made
use of the telephone.
One day, the week before, the mis-
tress of Gyongy was in very bad hui

versation, when the baron was called
to Gyongy over the telephone. When
the burglars appeared, the male serv.

while quiet ensued, and was broken
only by the commanding voice of the
baron. The countess turned white as
death; it was not her own fate, but
that of the baron, which frightened
her. Feverish and trembling, she
opened the door; the baron stood be-.
fore her. When she saw him safe and
sound she swayed, and would have
fallen if the baron had not caught her
in his arms.
About year and a half later after
that exciting night a happy family
event was celebrated at Gyongy-
the baptism of the first-born son of

And let her fret alone.

While still her eyes We're wet,

ANOTHER "NATURE" BOOK.
Ia Which Bridget SetOn-Clancy Re-
lates Tales of Her Intimacy
with wild Animals.

wild Brutes l Have Saw" by Bridget
ton-Clancy. This charming group of es-
says has about it the odor of the backwoods
to remarkable degree, says the Milwaukee
Sentinel.
The authoress explains, in the preface,
that her early life was spent in the wilds
of northern Minnesota, where she associated
almost entirely with wild animals. She
says:
Many times l used to set under tree
for hours at time, watching for to get a
shot at a rabbit. / could shoot good with
a rifle, and have often saw men who were
worse shots than be- When the other girls
were wasting their time going to district
school, l would be walking through the
woods, watching the wild beasts playing in
the trees and on the grass, and learning
something every minute. l seen lots Of
funny incidents, which | will try to mention
in this here book"
Miss Seton-Clancy is one of those free,
untamed souls who occasionally startle the
literary world by their supreme disregard
for the statute in such case made and pro-
vided. If she is ever worried by the rules
of grammar, it does not appear in her work.
She has something to say, and says it straight
from the shoulder.
This is one of the best books Of the year,

HORSE VS.. AUTO

Dick and his girls just left us; that's
them, nigh out of sight
1 wish him luck, for it's surely a royal
sparkin' night.
From our gate to the courthouse is Il
mile, exact
A two-hour drive. we call it, when roads
are good and packed;
But that auto rig contraptlon OF mis-
scoots up and down,
And he says it cuts the distance in half
twixt here and town!
Well mebbe it does; but seems like he's
goin' at things wrong
On a night like this he ought to contrive
at twice as long!
'Tis part of the age, however, an age
ef rush and run,
When unless you're fairly jumpin you
can't be haVin' fun,
When a couple must take their rldln
at gallop speed or more,
With choor choo! choo! behind them,
and nothin' at all before,
In a rig that can't be trusted to mind
a crooked road.
And right in the midst of matters IS
liable tC explode;
I reckon that one feels clever to make
the doip whirl,
But days when l was a-sparkin the main
point was the girl!
When 1 was a-courtin' Marthy / hitched
up old white Pete,
And the only thing [ asked him was that
he'd keep his feet.
I wasn't obliged to guide him; he did the
tUrnin' out.
And he rounded all the corners at mile
an hour about.
When Marthy was snug beside me that
old horse seemed to know
The Iikeliest shaded stretches where he
had best go slow
WHY, grass and the trees and bushes
along the way he cropped!
Slow! Well, on a few occasions we
warn't aware he'd stopped!
That was the style of ridin' when 1 was

Nothin' to watch but Marthy, and both
hands. bless you. free.

A Physicians Statement.

Yorktown, Ark, Jan. ll-Leland vii.
Hanson, M. d., one of the cleverest ply
slcians, has made a statement, endorsing
Dodds' Kidney Pills and saying that he uses
them In his daily practice in preference to
any other Kidney medicine. His statement
has created profound sensation as it is
somewhat unusual for physician to pub.
licly endorse anything in the shape of a
patent medicine. DIR. Williamson says:
After twenty years practice in a sickly
and malarious country | have come to the
conclusion that it is always best to use the
remedy that will relieve and cure my pa
tients whether ethical or not.
Il have used Dodd's Kidney Pills with uni
form success in the various forms of Kidney
Disease, Pain in the Back, Gout, Rheuma-
tism, Inflammation and Congestion of the
Kidneys and all kindred diseases; 1 always
prescribe Dodd's Kidney Pills in such cases
and can testify that they invariably restore
the Kidneys to their normal state and there
by relieve the blood of accumulated poisons,
producing prompt and effective cures"

afternoon reception wear, is astonishing
us with it's multiplicity of design and
slaborateness
And speaking of these gowns let us
look at the colors. Pale blue is preemi-
nently the color for use with the omni-
present moleskin, although some shades
of yellow and orange furnish an excel
lent relief to the soft darkness Of the
fur, and a moleskin toQue trimmed ip
marigolds shading through the yellows
and orange is thing to conjure with.
Yellow is one of the dominant color
notes this winter, especially in the
realm of evening and house attire, and
some of the shades are remarkably beau
tiful Banana is favorite shade, par
ticularly in the soft velvets, and is not
so trying as many of the yellows.
Pineapple is another popular yellow,
and there is new golden yellow which,
while not universally becoming, has an
exquisite warmth and softness, especial
ly when used in many thicknesses of
chiffon. This golden yellow is charming,
too, in the lustrous satins, and some of
the ultra-fashionable milliners are US
ing soft gold yellow felts or beavers, or
shapes covered with many folds of gold
yellow chiffon and almost invariably
trimmed in dark fur or velvet.

| stiff linen hem is joined to the collar
with open work, and altogether it is a
linen collar of distinctly coquettish
type that is with us now.
In Paris the stiff linen collar, slightly
pointed at the bottom in front and open
ing in the back, where it fastens with
two jeweled studs, has found much IA
vor
Severe mannish ties are often worn
with these collars, but the preference is
for soft scarfs, and the day of masculine
feminine attire seems, at least for the
moment, to have gone by.
| A bewildering array of scarfs in soft
silk and in crepe is offered, and these are
either tied in a loose bow knot with long
| floating ends or tied once in a small bow
knot and then knotted loosely again at
the bust line. Many of the crepe scarfs
| are fringed, and few of the silk scarfs
| also have fringed ends, but the prettiest
| of the silk scarfs for ordinary wear are
in foulard or very supple surah with
bandanna, scroll or dot designs in con-
trasting color.
Dark blue and light blue is favorite
combination, dark blue with design in
white and black, in white and red, or in
white and light blue is popular; red
| scarfs have white and black designs, and
there are daring combinations of dark
blue, white, black and orange, which
might be most effective with certain
blouses.
The silk stocks are legion, and an at
tempt to describe them would be futile.
! Hand work is, of course, the keynote of
the more elaborate type, but these fussy
silk or chiffon and lace stocks are much
less practical than their less pretentious
kindred, and seldom finish a dressy
blouse satisfactorily, while they are GER
tainly out of place with blouse Of any
other kind.
With the dressy blouse it is necessary
that the stock should look like an in
tegral part of the blouse, and as the ready
made fussy stocks seldom achieve this
effect it is far better to have stock
made to order to match the blouse.
Trim, smart tailor stocks of stitched
taffeta in black or color have fiariIe
bows or some of the many variations
upon the tab finish and are appropriate
for wear with tailor blouses and under
dainty turnovers more becoming next
the face than the dark silks. Very mar
row stiff linen turnovers are also used
with these stocks and are arranged to
button upon them so that there need be
no annoying pinning.
Tailor stocks of plaid taffeta, piped
with white, are among the new things
and are very attractive when worn with
a plain blouse in one of the colors pre-
dominating in the plaid.
A set of little gold or jeweled cuff and
collar pins is almost indispensable for
wear with stocks and turnOvers.
