SYNOPSIS.

Though possessing a British ladyship for a
grandmother and being otherwise well con-
nected, the hero Of the narrative. Frank Softly,
who tells the story of his life, Is early cast
upon his own resources. His rowing and ad-
venturous disposition prevents his following In
the footsteps Of his father as a respectable, but
not we'll paid, medical practitioner, and he tries
his hand at drawing carlcatures Of society peo-
pie for a living. When 1t Is discovered that
he has held up to public ridicule the venerable
features Of Lady Malkinshaw, his grandmother,
his family turns him out Of doors. Being cast
into prison for debt. Frank secures his release
by working upon the fact that a legacy which
is to devolve upon his sister Is dependent upon
his own life and good health. Upon quitting
the Jail, he comes suddenly upon a vision OF
feminine beauty and modest grace, whose
identity he tries. without success, to discover.
He shortly after then takes the prosaic posi-
ton Of secretary of a scientific and literary
association. which leads. however. to the most
thrilling adventures In his career. These begin
when he comes upon the lady, Alicia Dulcifer.
whose charms have captured his fancy, living
in a strange seclusion with her father. whose
occupation. apparently Of a chemical nature, is
shrouded in mystery. When the doctor and his
fair daughter remove to Birmingham. Frank
resigns his secretaryship to follow them. Their
house Is in a lonely spot a mile from the town;
with all its upper windows strongly barred and
shut off from the public gaze. Frank tries in
vain to obtain from Alicia the secret of her
fathers occtpatiOn.

linen shades. In fact, il will form one
of the preferred trimmings for the
seasons linen suits. There is also a
great demand for the fiat and edge
wise soutache. One of the newest
fancies is to use braid of a shade
lighter than the cloth. All the late
designs are revivals of old methods of
putting on the soutache. The several
forms of the Greek key are used in
straight borders, stoles or bretelles.
Borders formed of parallel rows of the
braid nave been adopted for simple
costumes.
Among the latest fancy creations in
linen jacket suits will be found the
linen empire skirt and Jacket of net,
with all seams covered with bands of
linen. The sleeves are short, made in
with the coat portions and the strap
ping is beautifully placed, often fur
Their decorated with frogs of cord and
fancy stitches. On some coats are
half spherical buttons covered with
miniature lace motifs just large enough
to stitch to the silk covered molds.
This for button trimming is very at
tractive. The coat really serves no
purpose except ornamental, though
something graceful is added to a gar
ment furnished with a jacket of this
description.

thirty times in succession. Next turn
the head from side to side as far as

In spite of the swarm of new ma

ca little trimming the crepe de chine
narticularly commends itself as a

sal use. the color Of the rep de chine
sbould be dark. For instance, a shade

SHE WANTS TO KEEP COMPANY.

Dear Miss Doom:
L am a young girl II years old and am
about 5 feet II 8 inches in height.
Now, Miss Doom, all I want to know is
how l can get a nice young man to keep
company with me? Every time 1 20
out a crowd of young men always keep
flirting with me. Some talk to me and
sometimes I go out with them, but they
never ask for my company, nor ever ask
to meet me. I do not say things out of
the way, and they always tell me they
have never spoken to a nicer girl thar
me. Do you think it is my height? [
am considered very good looking.
j. M. T.
Perhaps they would like you better If
you were not quite SO willing to firt.
Your height is not enough below the
average to make much difference. You
are very young to think about keeping
company When the right man comes
along you will need no advice from me
as to how to win him, so be contented
for the present.

NEST IN A coAT c

A curious find has been made in
Frogmore Garden, Sanford. The
gardener kept an DID coat hanging up
which he wore only occasionally, and
on putting it on he discovered in one
of the pockets a robins nest full of
young birds. The coat was replaced,
and the occupants left uninjured.

This model is also appropriate for wash
ing zephyrs and lawns as a morning
frock. For smarter occasions a charm
ing gown could be achieved in checked

creamy lace insertion in place of the
ribbon trimmings, and a straw hat with
a full wreath of pink roses and foliage.
The quillings at the throat and sleeves
should be of lace for a dressing gown, or

To cure the soft corn battle your feet
in warm water to which has beer
added a lump of washing soda. You
will find that it will be an easy matter
to pick the corn out with a corn razor
or the point of a sharp penknife. Be
very careful using either that you dc
not cut the corn or cause 1t to bleed,
or blood poison might result. After the
corn has been pared away make q
paste of common laundry starch and
apply 1t to the corn and allow it to dry
on. This will wither the corn and give
you great relief. This is only effectua'
in the case of soft corns. For the
blackheads I can give you no better
cure than %scrubbing the face with
