of regulation shape, but oh, ever so old, and
with an occasional timeworn hole in its
side. Aeons ago it hung in some temple, or
perhaps IN the shrine of an almond-eyei
maiden's home. The clapper or tongue OF
the bell is jingling little ring, to which are
tied long strips of prayer-inscribed paper.
Again occidental Ingenuity has come TO the
rescue in interpreting the oriental prayers,

A Fascinating Fad.

Once again the fashionable women of
Washington have yielded TO the fascination
of fad. 1t is not a home grown fad, but
one that comes straight from China, and it
has to do with bells. When the occidental
mind takes hold of an oriental idea or cult 1t
is usually short cry to Buddha- images
magic crystals and mysticism. None OF
these, however, is in the fashionable ascen.
dart at present. 1t is the day of bells, a
brass and copper season of sentiment.
Two very characteristic and utterly dis
similar specimens of bells have made their
appearance in Washington. They are rare
as yet, but they part and parcel of
general run of good luck which is thought
to stream from things ancient. and that is
why the women are buying them They
hang them in their boudoirs and the up-to-
date bachelors are besto%ing them as gifts
upon their sweethearts
One is a love bell The very name Is
charmingly suggestive. Imagine a hoop of
brass about the size of brindle bulldogs
collar from which are suspended lotus
leaves of the finest, thinnest brass swung on
the airy-fairiest of threads The love bell Is
intended to be hung either in a window or
some other breezy space, SO that soft winds
will set the leaves tinkling to the tune OF
an absent lovers thoughts.
T-neautiful Chinese sentiment concerning
the bell is printed on the paper that wraps
this attractive toy, but even fashion

despite his familiarity with pagodas and
Burmah girls east of Suez. They are very
charming and clever, however, and have
added much TO the popularity of the love

after the settlement of Jamestown. Among
the men who early appreciated the oppor-
tunity for trade with the Indians and in
creasing European population In the Poto-
mac country were many Scotchmen. 1t is
recorded that these Scotch traders were
the first whites TO settle on the site of
Washington city. Davy Burns, proprietor
of much of the western part Of the site of
the federal city at the time of the location
of the city and whose daughter Marta and
her husband, Gen. Van Ness, were promi-
nent in the early Washington, was a de-
seendant from some of these Scotch set
tiers. A number of these adventurous
traders settled on Quantico creek, and IN
memory of their European home called the
place Dumfries.
The town grew with the country till it
came to be classed with Williamsburg as
one of the important cities of the new
world In that time Fredericksburg had not
been born, the town of the Necostins was
where Georgetown stands and the Alex
anders and Hugh West who laid out Alex
andria, had not been born.
The seventeenth and early eighteenth
century history of Dumfres is largely lost
and what there is is scattered through so
many old records that to collate them
would be a work of months. In the latter
part of the eighteenth century chronicles
NAV be found with frequent reference to
Dumfries There is in the Library of Con-
gress an account of a big race meet of the
Dumfries Jockey Club in 1774, where the
stake of one race was 200 guineas. This
is not particularly significant of the an
tiouity of Dumfries, for in the pre-revolu-
tionary era there were great race meets

new Episcopal Church stands on the
ruin of the church Bishop Meade writes Of.
About it are hundreds Of graves Most of
them are unmarked, many of them are
marked simply by rude piece of undressed
rock without inscription. One or two OF
the eighteenth century graves are well
taken care of and quite number of carly
nineteenth century graves are. carefully

Here lies William Dunlop, merchant son
of Alexander Dunlop, Greek professor in
the University of Glasgow who dyed Deer

Thus the man whose bones lie there was
born in 1857. That is reaching well back
into the olden time!
Some of the tombs near Dunlop's grave
are marked as follows: Margaret Alexan-

Never by chance ordering anything, and
entirely willing to cease in his quest OF
nothing to inf1ict any party that may be
unfortunate enough to signify by SO much
as an appraised eyebrow lifted finger
that he may join them
The bounder is intensely funny at this
stage of the game-in the open, where you
can get away. He is also a study in the
art of bluff He never falters for an In
slant; looks at his watch in worried way
now and then; talks easily of clubs. thea
tiers, automobiles, and large amounts of
money occur so frequently in his talk that
you feel tempted to ask him If he suffers
from that virulent Wall street complaint.

He is impressive, and other-bounders-
usually lady. bounders-will tell you mys-
teriously of the several fortunes that he
squandered and the one that he is squan-
dering now; of his wild infatuatfon for
Tottie Toepraneer, which has wrecked his
career and cast him adrlft on the mad,
bad glad sea of French restaurant life.
The gift of CAB and a great deal of I'M
necessary manner are the two distinguish
ing characteristics Of the bounder, but
sometimes he has accomplishments. He
can sing or he can dance, sometimes he can
tell story, or perhaps he drinks heavily.
AT once IN the mysterious lexicon of the
day he is put down a good felIow-that
terrible and tremendous compound OF I'M

to indicate that before long every home will

At dinner he is unique and introduces
innovations, while conversing splendidly of
matters social that make your poor feast
seem mean. He puts his cigar ashes in the
sailed almonds and throws the ends under
the table. StiA~easily keeping up the flow
of his experiences, he burns two or three
holes In the table linen and the lace doy-
lies, and maybe smashes carafe or a
couple of glasses before he concludes his
continuous performance.
In fact, in some manner that is actually
mysterious he leaves ruin and desoation
in his wake. His manners are cyclonic

borrows them or takes them anyhow. Per-
haps he picks up a souvenir or two. Any
thing will do, from a coffee spoon to a bot
tie of tabasco, something that can be slip
ped in the pocket, for his sense of humor
is profound
He is such q good fellow. you know, the
bounder is, and you win the boon of his
undying scorn If you dare thwart him or
try to exclude him from the ruin of your
house. And even then he is quite likely to
appear on your day at home and sit and
sneer at you from your own cushions.
This Is the real reason why so many per-
sons cling to the primitive custom of chains
on the front door. It is not so much to
daunt burglars as to keep out bounders.
Too frequently the bounder walks on
banner on which he has inscribed 'Bo-
hemia.'' Because he can paint a picture or
write music he thinks it is all right for him
to kick over the lamp and hang his hat on
the rubber plant He tells you of beauti-
full poem that he has written that morning
and then proceeds to set fire to the cur
tains.
You are poor minded person. absolutely
bourgeois and small, IL you object to this.
He writes such stunning book reviews that
you cannot possibly find fault with him if
he leaves your party and goes TO sleep on
the dining room sofa.
Even though he takes the pictures off the
wall and walks on them you must laugh
heartily at the joke, for 1t all proceeds from
temperament which seethes and boils over

On with the game! It is not given to all
