1t was well that they had not very
far to go, for the boat was weighted
down almost to the edge, and 1t took
the bailing Of two men to keep In
check the water which leaked in be-
tween the shattered planks. When all
were safely in their places Captain
Ephraim Savage swung himself aboard
again, which was but too easy now
that every minute brought the bows
nearer to the water. He came back
with a bundle of clothing, which he
threw into the boat. push OFF, he
cried.

"Ephraim Savage goes down with his
ship said he quietly. Friend Tom
linson, it is not my way to give my
orders more than once. Push off, |

The mate thrust her out with a boat
hook. Amos Green and De Catinat
gave a cry of dismay, but the stolid
New Englanders settled down to their
oars and pulled of.

the mate. 81 will take her to the berg,

"My God, what happiness! Corporal
Lemoine, NE boat! Let us push off at
once"
But you need a few things first.
Good Lord, who ever heard Of a man
pushin' off like that? Mr.. Tomlinson,
Just sling a keg Of water and a barrel
Of meat and Of biscuit into this boat.
Hiram Jefferson, bring two oars aft.
It's a long pull with the wind In your
teeth, but you'll be there by tomorrow
night, and the weather Is set fair"
The two Frenchmen were soon pro-
vided with all that they were likely to
require and pushed off with a waving
of hats and a shouting of Bon .voy-
age" The yard was swung round
again, and the Golden Rod turned her
bowsprit for the west.
But while these things had been done
the senseless man beneath the mast
had twitched his eyelids, had drawn a
little gasping breath and then finally
had opened his eyes. Old Catinat had
come upon deck, and at the sight of
the man and of his dress he had run
forward and had raised his head rev.

Social Gatherings.

A merry party of about 35 young
ladies and gentlemen were most
pleasantly, entertained Friday evening by
Miss Alice L. Kicker in honor of her friend,
Miss Airline Hasson of Seattle, Washing
ton. The evening was quickly passed in
playing cards after which dainty refresh
ments were served.
A delightful afternoon was spent at
the pleasant home of Mrs. 7. c. Fletcher,
Thursday afternoon, when she gave a
"heart shower" in honor of Miss Isabel
M. Paddock. Owing to the inclemency
of the weather the party, which was to
have been held on the lawn, was given
in the house, where tables were laid for
80 ladies. Tempting delicacies of sand
witches, strawberry ice cream and frosted
cakes were served, the color scheme
throughout being pink and white and
the sandwiches and cakes formed i'll
shape of hearts. The ladies then with
drew to the drawing-room, where Miss
Caroline D. Ely in clever speech pre-
sented the guest of the afternoon tray
full of hearts. Much merriment was
caused in undoing the parcels and the
reading of the poetry, written for the
occasion.

There is q distinct satisfaction in
knowing that the millinery for the
coming season is of such infinite va
:lety of style and shape that while
following the latest fashions faith
fully, everyone can be we'll suited.
Thls happy state of affairs prevailed
last year, and was so much appre-
clated that the powers that be in the
domain of fashion have evidently de-
termined on the same popular policy
once mOre-certainly marked
amount OF favor is allotted to the mush-
room brim, but then it's softly curved
shade is becoming to most faces, and
for the, rest there are hats of almost
startling contrasted size and shape.
Wonderful indeed are some of the
new hats designed in Paris for spring
wear, and great will be the courage of
the wearers of some of them. No
design seems too grotesque for orig.
inators of millinery to spring on
guilible feminine public. Luckily the
majority of women realize the effect
OF too extraordinary chapeaus and re.
fuse to lend their services to the pro-
moters of the truly ridiculous. Of
course there are few women so bean.
tiful In form and feature and possess
ed of such grace and chic that no hat
could possibly spoil them, but there
are not so many of these, and then, too.
these women know very we'll, as a
rule, what they may and may not
wear to set off their abundant beauty.
In spite, however, Of a number of
The Virginia enterprise., 1907-06-14

outre shapes-and outre shapes ap.
pear every season in the too great
striving for novel millinery-there are
many charming hats being imported
and also created on this side of the
water
The earlier hats of any season are
usually modes of the moment only.
Many are bought by women whose
winter millinery has either lost it's
freshness or has become an old story
to them, and they purchase several
hats merely to vary or freshen their
ensemble, and as they buy them for
few weeks wear only, they take
whatever is offered, without, as rule,
sufficient attention to the style or it's
becomingness.
The Partisan with her marvelously
dressed hair may venture on many
a hat that, perched above the too
often careless coiffures of other wom-
en-, would prove fatal to the slightest
degree of chic. The French woman
shows no tag ends of hair. Brilliant
inc and hair nets may be used, but
the effect is perfect. In Paris, fortu-
nately, the even Marcel wave is out,
and all waving is done in the loose,
large, Irregular fashion so much more
natural and so much more pleasing to
the eye that has not lost it's apprecia.
tion of the really beautiful. OF course
comparatively few women look as
we'll with their hair brushed smooth
and plain, and those few should make
the most of it.
