Unlike most of those who ride much

had trouble in keeping up with him,
though she had always considered her
self good pedestrian. But Jim Mum
son was laboring under strange en-
barrassment. He was red-facedly
conscious of the attention he was at

street from the station in the van of
the prettiest and most thoroughbred
girl who had struck Velpen this long
time.
Not that he objected to attention
under normal conditions. Not he! He
courted it. His chief aim in life
seemed to be to throw the limelight

There were no women at the Three
Bars. There never had been any
woman, at the Three Bars within the
memory of man. To be sure, Willis
toms little girl had sometimes ridden
over on an errand, but she didn't
count. This-this was the real thing,
and he didn't know just how to deal
with it. He needed time to enlarge
his sight to this broadened horizon.
He glanced with nonchalance over
his shoulder. After all, she was only
glri, and not such a big one, either.
She wore longer skirts than Willis
toms girl. but he didn't believe she
was day older. He squared about

CRYSTALLINE IN ALL SHADES,
Is One Of the Most Popular OF the
Transparent Textures.

One of the most popular of the
transparent textures is crystalline,
and this is seen in all shades from
white to the deepest tones of pink,
blue and mauve. An exquisite crys-
talline gown was of deep watermelon
pink, the bodice handsomely embroid-
cred in different tones of pink, while
the sleeves and the tiny Dutch yoke
were of white lace embroidered in
gold. The skirt had wide bands of
gold and pink embroidery running
down each seam to within a few inches
of the hem. There was a fitted girdle,
with long sash ends finished off with
sewing silk tassels, for the dress, and
this belt was of dull japanese blue, q
favorite combination this year and one
which if carried in just the right
shade of pink and blue is most artistic
as well as being delightfully."- unusual.
The exaggeratedly high, stiff collars
which have lately been decreed have
done much to bring back the collar
less Dutch yoke, for where a high
collar must be worn with every style
OF outdoor dress a comfortable collar
or, a collarless waist is more than ever
welcome in the house gown.

tors of Bucket Shops That Do
Business Through the Mails.

In times of prosperity there are al
ways chances for the CRATER. During
the past ten years has been the era
Of the get-rich-quick man. No sooner
does one scheme play out than an
other takes it's place. Thanks to the
eve diligent postal inspectors, and an
unrelenting government, the schemers
are not so plentiful as a few years ago.
For ONE years a number of supposed
legitimate grain and stock brokers
thrived in both eastern and western
cities. These were active in soliciting
through the mails, and through local
Offices the business of small investors.
The millions Of money gained from
the unsuspecting people will never be
known. In New York, Chicago, st.
Louis and other cities large and ex-
pensively conducted Offices were main
tanned. Once the government got on
the right trail, there were irregulari-
ties discovered that resulted in fraud
orders being issued against a number
of the concerns. The end is not yet,
and the work of determination will be
kept up till there is none in operation.
Buying stocks in a fair market is a
risky business, but when there are
schemers to stack the cards against
the investor, there is not a ghost of a
show. Many a bank clerk and bust
ness man can trace his downfall to
specializing in the bucket shops.

FOLDING PARAsoLs AGAIN.
Fashion of Forty Years Ago Revived
and Improved Upon.

When men and women now so were
small boys and girls parasols were
made with hinged handles. Later
came a time when these ~parasols
went entirely out of use, supplanted
by more modern parasols with solid
sticks.
Now folding handle parasols have
come in again, and there are now to
be found also-these were never
heard of in old times-folding handle
umbrellas.
The handle of the ol%d-fashioned
folding parasol was secured and held
in position when set straight by
means of a sliding band, and unless
this band fitted very nicely and snug
ly the handle was likely to wobble
more or less.
The modern folding handle urn
brella or parasol has joints so made
that when the umbrella is set up COM
plete for use the joints are invisible
and the whole handle is as rigid as
a solid stick. Instead of being held
together when Strengthened out in
place by a sliding band, the sections
OF the handle of a modern folding
umbrella are screwed together.
A 26-inch folding umbrella, with
handle and tip folded, can be laid
~diagonally inside of a 24-inch suit
case. Big, modern, long-stick para
soils are now made with handles
.jointed so that they can be carried
in trunks.
There are now made for those who
desire them umbrella cases of sole
leather, the umbrella case being a
slender and tapering but stout leath-
er holder of size sufficient to contain
a folding handle umbrella with the
handle fOlded.-N. Y. Sun.

Deadly Common Plants.

The things that give the most pleas
ure in life frequently can also cause
the greatest pain. Among flowers, for
instance, the beautiful snowdrop, the
hyacinth, jonquil and narcissus are
all poisonous, and to eat the smallest
part of the root IF either of them
would produce fatal results, while the
juices of the leaves will cause violent
vomiting.
The berries of the yew tree have
killed many people, and the opium
obtained from peoples has also
claimed it's victims. Lady's slipper
and lily Of the valley are both danger
GUS, and If the blossoms of crocus are
chewed they will cause vomiting.
Flowers from Dubious roots, however,
seem to be the most. dangerous, and it
might not be out of place to dealers
in these to label them with a cross
bones and mark them poison. .'N.,
