He added that he wanted to see her win, for which req son he volunteered to be a witness
 Jones said nothing, but waited. Tn a day or two Brown called during Jones' absence Still Jones waited. and did not send for him. Finally he called again. and this time Jones was in. He said as witness. aMd Jones subpoenaed him.
 On the day of. the trial Jones. who, much to the surprise of the other. side. had not depended entirely upon this valu- able witness, called up ali his witnesses before he even looked at Brown. The lat ter was growing more and more nervous until he was finahy called as witness by the other side. They had to do that, for they could not wait any longer. and he proved to be theiI, best witness: Jones did not call on hirp a. alli and the oppos- ing lawyer Tn summoning up mentioned this fact sarcastically, as if it were weak point in Jones. armor. That was sufficient. Jones opened up with dry hu- nor and told the whole story exactly as it occurred. to the rage of the other side. And if you ask me. gentlemen.,' he add cd suavely. "why did not call upon that witness I will simply answer, Because I was not born yesterday"

''When Knighthood Was in Flower"
 a+ r1oaatra Last Might.

When Knighthood Was In Flower" for the second time pleased a large audience at the Montgomery Theatre last night.
 It is doubtful if higher compliment could be paid Charles Major, the author of the historical romance, or the play wrights who weaved Majors romance into drama. The presenting company was certainly not up to the standard of other companies, which Montgomery audiences have seen in When Knighthood Was In Flower"
 But the performance pleased.
 The spirited action of the play. the TO- nance of the times the strength of the characters all aided the company in giv- ing the audience the worth of their money.
 A new star IS presented by Frank Per- ley. who presides over the box office des- tinles of the company.
 Miss Roselle Knott young Canadian actress is for the first time seen at the head of large company. Be it said to Miss Knott's credit that she has not fol- lowed in detail the ideas of actresses of greater fame who have essayed the part of Mary Tudor, the willful sister of the eighth Henry.
 Miss Knott Is original. Miss Knott is good to look upon, but it. is doubtful that Charles Major ever intended to have his heroine. a school girl of not more than ordinary intelligence. as Miss Knott's rendition last night impressed the audi ence.
 The Charles Brandon of Frank Sylves- ter had rough edges. MT. Sylvester is also young actor and appears to be full of spirit and ambition. but his Charles Brandon is entirely too romantic for the rugged. experienced, thoughtful, yet pol ished soldier who as Captain of the Kings Guard, first wooed and won Mary Tudo:.
 Frederick Van Rennselaer, who played both Francis D'Angouleme, Dauphin of France and Sir Adam Judson, was of higher class of actors than the rest of the support His work was well defined and convincing.
 The rest of the support were hardly over the mediocre.
 The production was adequately cos. tuned and staged.

 have noticed that the, hat which matches the dress is the hat that wins. You may have on a twenty-five dollar pale blue hat. and, if t is worn with red gown it would be far better to have in stead ninety cent black sailor. You know that as well as I do.
 The beaver shapes in pale tints 'as well as in dark ones are a boon to the girl who must have many hats and shouldn't. If she chooses a French sailor shape with a becoming roll on the face a simple well vet bow laid across the crown will com- piete the trimming of the top of the hat, while couple of roses with a spray of foliage will give color to the underbrim as they nestle close to the fluffy pom padour of the wearer.
 By the way. while. I am on the subject of beaver hats I want to remark that the latest thing is a pale violet beaver trim med with violet leaves and tiny buds. It goes beautifully with the violet gowns and tailor mades which are, all the rage just now. eS

 First. she took the belt and, ripping the nppef half, pulled it out wider so that fz covered the lower edge of the bolero, with it's objectionable trimming She pulled up the belt in the center of the hack q trife higher than anywhere else hecalise that made the waist look smaller, and for the same reason she sewed two rows of three steel buttons so that they formed a V shaped figure in the center pf the girdfe. Next she ripped off the nuf7s, and that left a three-quarter or practically an elbow length sleeve, with the outside seam longer than the inside me. This sleeve she slashed up to the sfb0w and filled it with a full ruffle of ecru lace. It required a yard and d half for each sleeve. She took from one of her summer gowns wide lace collar and put it over the rest of the waist. leaving it a uny bit open in the front and joining it hF a fancy knotted tie of black velvet.
