on thesquare Saturday afternoon.
1t was an unusual scene in Lub-
book and no doubt it was the first
time many Of the younger pOpu-

1t renewed in the minds of many
the thoughts of boyhood days

have ever been brought to West

John ]. Cox Dead.

John J. Cox died last Friday.
Senility was the main cause of
death. Services were had at his
residence Sunday by the Christ
ian Scientists of which church
deceased was member. The
burial was on Monday in the
City Cemetery. The following,
contributed by a friend, tells
something of his history:
John J. Cox was born in Bond
county, Illinois, January %, 1925,
and came with his widowed
mother to Texas when four years
of age. His early manhood was
spent on the frontier of Texas
and he could tell many thrilling
stories ofthose trying days. Later
he served in the war against
Mexico.
He was married in 1868 to Miss
Sarah j. Roberts, who with eight
children survive him. He lived
a useful and exemplary life and
reached an age not usually at
tanned by human beings. The
sympathy of the community goes
with his stricken family.

Care of SILK Stockings.

To prevent silk stockings from rail
roading," as it is called when stitches
are dropped and long runs appear,
often making the stocking unfit for
further wear, wet the start of the
railroad" with the tip of the finger
and the life of the stocking will be
saved. The moisture serves to hold
the dropped stitch, temporarily at
least, and when the stocking is re-
moved the stitch can be caught with
a needle and fine darning silk, or the
run can be obliterated by crocheting
1t from end 20 end with a fine steel
hook.
Another way to prevent runs is to
dip the stockings in water and let
them become thoroughly dampened
before ever wearing them When they
are dried they are practically as fresh
looking as before their dip and they
will not be so ready to drop stitches.

THE SATIN RIDEoN cIRDLE.
Directions for Making characterization
Just Now Popular.

II you want a satin ribbon girdle
with a bow and long, full ends, first
attach one end of the ribbon to the
belt line over the left hip, either in
fornt or behind, and bring the betting
around the waist until it meets. Then
make two upright loops and large
center knot, attach them firmly to a
little square of buckram, and arrange
the hanging ends with a ball fringe
on each.
To make the girdle separate to be
worn with any frock, put bones in it at
intervals of three inches, then wrap
the girdle around the waist, pull it
tightly into place and tie small bow,
letting the ends hang. A black satin
girdle made in this fashion is of much
service.
On elaborate frocks they are often
made of cloth of gold and cloth of sill
yer tissue put in small tucks and en-
broidered with floss and bullion. They
are cut slightly heart-shaped in front
to give a curve to the figure.
When the frock is made with an
empire skirt which hangs in straight
line from below the bust these elab-
crate girdles are not boned, are only
three inches wide, and end at front or
back with jeweled ornament.

A SURPRISING WEDDING.
II Gave a Shock to the Lady Who Was
So Anxious to See It.

II Gave Shock to the Lady Who Was
So Anxious to See 1t.
An elderly American authoress asked
me to conduct her to place where
she could see a workman's wedding,
as she required it for new novel,
writes the Paris correspondent Of the
London Gentlewoman. To oblige the
lady l took her to the Lac Saint-Far-
geau, an establishment at the top OF
the steep Rue de Belleville.
1t was still early when we reached
the place. and no brides or bridegrooms
were visible as yet. At last two char
a-bancs drove up to the door, and a
noisy company alighted, all smoking
cigarettes. including the bride, which
shocked my friend exceedingly.
The company then sat down to
luncheon, and we watched them from
a distance. while a photographer took
up his position near us. The meal did
not last very long and ended in the
bride performing a jig on the table,
while the guests danced around her.
They then started games, hide and
seek, etc., and while the bridegroom
had his back turned the bride threw
her arms round the neck of red hair
ed youth.
This led to fight between the two.
The melee became general the bride
pulling off her wreath and throwing 1t
at her father-in-law's head. My friend
looked on in breathless excitement,
while the guests jumped over the ia
bles and chairs. but when the bride
turned a somersault, alighting on the
bridegroom's shoulders, the good lady's
indignation rose to high pitch, and it
was only then that l told her what
and the reader no doubt, too-guessed
long before, that they were party OF
acrobats rehearsing a scene for a cine
matograph company.

WHEN WEATHER is RAINY.
New Models for Wear on Intermit
tentIy Wet Days.

Dressmakers are trooping home over
the ocean with their Paris spells and
that peculiar sound that thrills the air
is the last expiring gasp from papa's
pocketbook There are new designs
in dresses for rainy weather. Wet
days, one dressmaker says, may be di-
vided roughly into two classes, the
hopeless and the intermittent, and
each presents its separate problem to
the woman who values her appear
ance. The hopeless day is easy to
deal with, but the internationally wet
day requires more careful handling.
Nevertheless, the dressmakers are
bringing home charming new models
in gowns and hats which will rob
such day of its terrors. The new
umbrellas are in either dark green,
dark mauve or brown shot silk, and
are finished with floral borders har-
monizing with the silk They are
the prettiest novelty in umbrellas seen
in years
