Trick of Heather Chinee.

A prominent lawyer is fond of re-
lating a story of an amusing incident
which occurred few years ago in the
criminal court, and which, he asserts.
is only another proof that when it
comes to ways that are dark and
tricks that are vain, the heather
Chinee is all that Bret Harte pictured
him. A Chinaman was being tried on
some minor offense, and there were
some 20 or 80 of his countrymen in the
courtroom During the noon recess the
accused mingled freely with the other
Cinnamon, and when court resumed
the prisoner could not be located. He
was called but did not answer to his
name. AS last resort, each Chinaman
in the room was marched up and
asked if he was the accused. Finally,
the right Chinaman was found, but, in
the meantime, the dignity of the court
was badly Jared.

while not as swift as had been Reg
maids, was carried forward with the
same enthusiasm.
Nothing left but a lion among
ladies!" laughed Tilly. Il wish I had
lump of sugar for the poor old fell
low"
Mollie now required the Googans'
attention, for she was in pitiful state
of fright.
"To think, father ran tool" she
sobbed. Nobody cares if / am de-
voured"
Il do" said quiet voice at her
elbow, and Reginald Davenport,
shame-faced but determined, stood be-
fore them. Il know L was all kinds
of a cad to run. but I thought it was
your fathers voice, Mollie, and-Of
course, if I had known it was nothing
but lion l wouldn't have run"
Nothing but-a-lion stood at a short
distance regarding the party pleasant
stood up and roared. He put his head
on one side. He did every cute thing
he knew but it was no use. Evidently
these people didn't like pets. He
stalked away, waving his plumed tail.
"He's got the bats" said one of the
policemen who were holding Peter Q.
Eastman, as the Googans and the
clippers came in search of the million
aire, with his stories of wild ele-
plants and clipping daughters and
beautiful ladies in danger! Well pat
him where the tigers won't get him!

But the Googan girls came to Peter
Q.'s rescue and the misunderstanding
was cleared up. Mr.. Eastman admit
ted the official had been justified in de-
tanning him, so cratic had his actions
appeared.
Shall we go on with the elope-
ment?" asked lilly. briskly, as the
police went in search of Leo, the IN
trammeled.
Certainly" declared Peter Q.
Very we'll, if you insist" said
Mollie, airily. It's just like you,
father, to force me to marry someone =
she complained.
Anyway, we've cut the Gordon
knot-or 1 should say, the Googan
knot" whispered lilly, to her sister.
Il fear we've helped tie one" sighed
Lilly, gazing obviously at the light
headed young couple upon whom
Peter @. was beaming.

Kimono Coat Still with Us.

The kimono coat, while not so new
as the mandarin coat, has obtained
firm hold upon the favor of designers
and wearers, and kimono influence is
widespread in coatdom, though the
models are seldom purely Japanese
in line of design. In velvet, cloth,
satin, even fur, the kimono idea is de-
veloped, and the kimono sleeves and
shoulders are introduced upon a
legion of coats which have no other
claim to Japanese character.
1t is on the handling of the sleeve
and shoulder drapery that many of the
smart models in light colored broad
cloth rest almost all of their claim to
artistic modishness. The cape idea
begins where the kimono idea leaves
off, and it is difficult sometimes to
know whether one should call model
draped cape or kimono coat. Some of
the cloth coats are handsomely braid
ed with soutache, hand braiding being
of course essential to true elegance.

way-and impress upon the young

When one Goes one's own dress
making correct cut costs only the
price of a pattern, and careful finish
nothing at all in money. Yet they are
of far more Importance in the smart
gowning of the younger girls than is
either quality of material or expensive
trimmings. Possibly the fact that
children rapidly outgrow their frocks
has Influenced the fashions. Be this
as it may certain it is that even In
circles where money-saving need not
be considered, simplicity and dainti-
ness rather than rich and elaborate eff
fects distinguish the attire of the
children.
Lingerie frocks are de rigueur for
four-and six-year-olds, for dress, even
in mid-winter They cannot be too
dainty, either in material, trimming,
or finish. Lawns and cotton batistes
can be found fine and sheer, even
when low-priced; and as the founda-
ton of lingerie dress, they answer
all, the daintiness lies less in the quail
ity of the material than in it's fresh
ness, it's lines, and its finish.
Skirts must be short and full. The
hem and tucks must be set with
geometric precision, and sewed with
almost microscopic stitches. The raw
edges of seams must be invisible,
both on the right and wrong sides.
Whipping them to inserted lace it
adds somewhat to the total expense,
or seam-beading is the newest way,
but the next best method turns the
seams to the right side, trims them
close, and hides them under a narrow
band of bias material with it's edges
folded down. This is first basted into
position, and then Ornamented with
closely set herring-bone stitches done
in crochet cotton or in the new mer-
cerized embroidery thread. The long
seams in the frocks are finished in
French" style.
When inserting lace, bands OF
drawn work, strips of darned, tucked
or embroidered net, etc., haste the

the ends in picket-points, as illustrated
in Figure 1. To secure the tranSpar-
ent effect, turn to the wrong side, and
with pointless scissors cut through
the center the portion of material i'm
mediately under the lace. Fold the
raw edges back at the lines of sewing,
and stitch them down just beyond the
latter, so as to catch the extreme edge
of the lace. Finally, trim away the
material close to the last row of sew
ing. Whipping the lace and material
together makes a daintier finish, but
the cheap lace and cottons will not
always stand the strain which may
eventually be exerted upon them.
In the little frock shown in Figure 1,
the hem, being double, was whipped
to the lower edge of the lace inser-
ton above it, and the lace edging at
the sleeves and throat was whipped
to the brier-stitched collar and elbow

Use of Soan-

1t is useless to observe rules for
having a good complexion and go in
for dieting to clear the skin il one is
not particular as to the kind of soap
used. The amount of carelessness
shown in selecting this cleanser is
amazing, for a woman will as rule
take whatever is offered in a shop
and will continue using it for weeks
or months without noticing what it's
effect may be upon the flesh.
AS a matter of fact, in one way or
another its effect on the skin is quite
as positive as that of certain foods
upon the digestion. The skin is by
no means benefited simply because
soap has been applied, nor is it neces-
sarily cleaned. The skin so-called
cleansing agent may be quite too dry
ing, and in this case though it re-
moves dirt the skin is left in such a
condition as to absorb impurities
more readily, and blackheads and
pimples are apt to result. Or, in
stead of being overdrying, there may
be too much oil in the soap, and
though the skin is cleaned, it becomes
greasy and the pores enlarged owing
to an excess of fats.
Having found a good soap, use it
freely on the face. but always take
care that it is we'll rinsed afterward
There is too much dirt in city streets
to think that it can be removed with
clear water. or even with cloth or
brush, while as to the dust of the
country. it is just the thing to make
wrinkles by drying the skin if al
lowed to stay on and work into the
pores.

repentance Very well then. Nothing
should interfere with the successful
elopement
And then the car came to an abrupt
standstill. lilly jumped to the ground
and in an instant was going through
the usual investigation of an expert
who knows every within of the ma
chinery
The clippers were chatting uncon-
cernedly for, having engaged a Goo
gan to conduct their elopement, they
felt no further responsibility about it.
The moonlight sifted through the
arching trees, the road stretched out
in front cleaning ribbon of silver,
all over the great area of park silence
reigned
And then through the stiffness came
sound that stayed Tilly's hand in
mid-air, and froze the words and
laughter on the lips of the light
hearted clippers. 1t was a long, rum
bling sound that seemed to curl up
at the corners.
The three terrified listeners waited
for it to come again, nor were they
disappointed This time it was I'M
mistakably roar. The park suddenly
seemed turned into wild jungle over
run with raging beasts. Roar after
roar now chased through the stiffness.
Molly screamed with fear and Tilly
crept into the front of the car, after
one unavailing attempt to start the
balky engine. But Reginald Daven-

the machine and was now a rapidly
disappearing speck up the road.

Richest Queen in the World.

No European queen is so rich in
jewelry as the Supreme Queen Of
Siam. She has a huge safe or casket,
the handicraft of a London firm, in
which repose marvellous necklets,
pendants, bracelets, anklets of dia-
monds, rubies, emeralds and pearls
galore. The second queen owns a
scarcely inferior casket, and each of
the other wives has her own special
hoard. The national jeweler has a
standing order for 100000 worth of
jewelry to be delivered to the king
every year, much of which is distrub-
uted among the favorites of the ha.

His own heart was beating rapidly.
At last he said in low tone:
"You need not be alone day long

Katherine almost stopped, as she
