a little fullness at the waist line.
A little touch of black velvet some

note just now.
Nalenciennes, torchOn and several
other fashionable laces are now imitat-

Brightest peacock blue appears now
and then, crude in its garishness and
out of harmony with its surroundings.
Another pretty touch is a black velvet

The business of refining coat, which
is so often necessary at this time of the
year, can be very simply achieved in
the following manner: First remove
half the old lining to use as a pattern
by which to cut out the new one, leav-
ing the other half stitched to the coat
to act as guide.
The next process IS to unpicll the
piece Of lining which has been detach-
ed Lay 1t fiat on the new material and
cut round the pattern, leaving enough
for turnings Sew up the seams, leav-
Ing the arm seam open. Lay the new
lining over one side of the coat, and
haste it into position, unpicking the re-
naming half by degrees, and bastlng
the new in Its place, says Woman s
Life.
The bottom, front and neck must now
be neatly hemmed, and the armholes
and under-arm seams sewed up. Any
material which is over should be gath
cred or neatly plated into these two
seams. Lastly, the Innings of the sleeves
must be sewn up and stitched in.

"Writtng Up" the Neighhors.

While more than one author Of the
day is finding himself persona non
grata with people and communities
which he has portrayed-possibly with
too unsparing a hand--an old question
arises How far has the literary artist
a right to put his fellow beings down
In printers inkf
The question, of course, really Sits
down to the matter Of persons, and
concerns the novelist alone. An In
flnity OF human material lies around
him, and unless Othello is to lose his
occupation altogether he must be at
liberty to use 1t as he sees fit Indi-
viduals suggest their type to an ar
lists mind, and If he represents the
type, which he has every right to do,
and the Individual happens to be a
well-developed specimen, the latter's
neighbors may-quite reasonably
agree as to who must have been the
original. A type in the hands Of a
master is bound to suggest everything
1t includes, and nothing can be done
about 1t. II people are hurt, he must
console himself by the reflection that
he has written for posterity, and pos.
| terity will absolve him.
But deliberately to record circum-
| stances and characteristics which are
not essential TO the type. which Will
identify some living person beyond a
/ doubt, and make things uncomfortable
for him. means, as a rule, that the
writer IS not only betraying his OWL
artistic limitations, but is forgetting
the law Of love.-Margaret Laing. In

How useless our lives seem to us

of home life, and imagine we would be

as noble as father, mother, sister, or
brother. In the sacred precincts Of
home we have many chances Of hero
ism. The daily acts of self-denial for
the good Of a loved one, the gentle
word of soothing for anothers trouble,
the care of the sick, may all seem as
nothing; yet who can tell the good
they may accomplish? Our slightest
word may have an influence over an

sowing the seed which will bring forth
some sort of harvest. Well will It be

proud to garner. If someone In that

Small Things,

Living to Christ in small things, and
living for Christ every day, is the Sc
cret of large frultfulness. A peach tree
or an orange does not leap into boun-
ty Of fruit by one spasmodic effort; an
orchard does not ripen under a single
days sunshine. Every ralndrop, every
sunbeam, every inch of subsoil, does its
part. A faithful Christian Is a growth.
To finish a godly character by a mere
religion of Sundays, and sermons, and
special seasons, Is impossible. One may
be converted in an instant, but he must

/
tOriOus Fight with wolves.
Clancy backed up against a tall fir
kicked Off his skees and stood ready
| for them, says Charles Frederick Hold
er In McClures. In a moment they
saw him, stopped and separated TWEEN
side and rear. Taking careful aim at
q gray wolf as 1t came to him, Clancy
fired directly In It's face, dropping 1t;
he whirled to fire at the one to his left,
when the third sprang upon him. A
fash and howl told that the second
animal was wounded with a powerful
kick he caught the third between the
fore legs and sent 1t flying backward.
For a moment the two beasts were
staggered. He tried to fire again, but
found that he dropped the revolver.
In a frenzy he seized the dead wolf
and flung 1t at the others as they came
on. He struck one fierce blow under
the Jaw with his boot and made
slashing cut with his long knife, at
which one Of the wolves sprang around
behind him. At this he unslung the
child, and, holding it high in the air
with one hand, attempted to toss 1t
into the low, sheli-like branches Of the
tree. But as he held 1t aloft the wound
ed wolf sprang upon him, sprang and
met the long blade that sank into It's
throat.
The force of the rush threw the man
down and away from the tree. Drop
ping the bag into the soft snow. he
seized his long skee that he had thrust
upward In the snow and waited. The
white wolf the specter Of it's kind, ran
back and came at him with many false
starts, then with a yelp dashed straight
on. Clancy intended to use the skee
as club, but the thought suddenly
found Judgment In his benumbed brain
that If this broke he was lost, so he
dropped 1t and sprang to meet the
brute, with maddened cry-gr-r-r-r-r
in his throat. The VOLTS mouth was
open, and with a movement like the
flash of light he grasped the lower Jaw,
back Of the sharp CANNES. bent 1t down
with his giant strength, at the same
time grpped the throat with his left
hand, and the two rolled in the snow
from which came horrible cries, growls,
imprecations, the sounds that go with
enforced strangulation, and despair Of
man or beast. Not for a moment did
the desperate man release his grip ::
the huge, dogllke beast tore ridges in
his face with It's foreclaws, while the
man-beast, bearing 1t down, in turn
tried to fasten his teeth upon the ami
mails throat, Slowly and surely he
ehoked 1t. not releasing his hold until
the brute was almost stiff.
