there grew flower in the withered heart of the old. in the heart beating no longer to the voices that the glad world hears there sprang up a tiny flames that was nourished by beautiful woman, who often paused at the threshold.
 Up to the day of her death this old and withered creature cherished such an af- lection for her friend that she was never happier than when being told of the parties she went to and of seeing her in party gowns.
 When you come next time," she would say, you must wear that other party dress,'' or it would be:
 Please wear this same dress when you come tomorrow"
 She would reach out and touch the soft materials almost caressingly, and she would gaze long and reverently at the broad-brimmed hats and plumes. Furs and huge muffs were her special delights.
 Other folks don't dress up when they come here," she would say. 'I guess they think things is too plain, but you-you always look so beautiful" and her tired eyes would rest most lovingly upon her whom she called her friend.
 Another Birmingham woman, whose beautiful deeds can never be recounted, has made lasting friendships among the poor. In her own home she is surrounded with every luxury and in the most bril- liant society she is accounted one of the loveliest women of her day. Few know of the many times her carriage stops at humble doorways, and how many families she provides for in times of hardship.
 And whenever there is a chance for her to give some of these friends she has scene in the gay world in which she lives, she grasps the opportunity.
 I recall perfectly beautiful incident at one of her own parties. She was standing at the head of a long receiving line, when quaint, old fashioned little woman appeared at the door of the drawing room She was very plainly dressed and wore comical little hat. She gazed about her for a moment, somewhat helplessly, pathetic, incongruous figure in setting of palms and jacquimot roses. Then a radiant smile spread over her face and she ripped over to her hostess
 Had she given her name or address probably no one would have known thero was such a street in Birmingham. But she had come bravely over to g. very fashionable street, threaded her way among tine line of well set up broughams and autos, and without even glancing at the stiff-necked butler. had safely reached the side of her hostess. a little frightened. but very happy.
 "She hadn't been to a party in years," said the hostess later "and I told her she just had to come to mine.'
 And the only trouble was that she did not know when to go. It was quite problem, but was managed so diplomati- cally that the friendship remains un- broken.

 W. R. STARBUCK, President. CLIFF s. PRICE, Sect and Treasurer. Nothing could be more beautiful than the idea of dedicating the various sec tions In the library as memorial offer ings; and certainly nothing could be sweeter or more fitting than that the first should be chosen for Margaret E. O'Brien-Davis whose life and name are synnymous with the highest type of in- tellectual womanhood that this community has ever known.
 It Is the tribute of a loving fathers heart to the child whose talent and genius and tender love, was an inspiration-an idol-that her memory should be re-. called among the friends she loved so well.
 ''Books-each a world; and books we
 know
 Are a substantial world both pure and
 good;
 Round these with tendrils strong as flesh
 and blood,
 Our pastimes and our happiness will
 grow"
 Is the tenderest memorial of her fair young life.

Removable Hat Trimmings

One of the newest devices in millinery circles is the removable bow. It is made of varicolored ribbon attached to a band of the same. To arrange 1t properly two or three hooks and eyes should be used i; the eyes being placed upon the crown of the hat, while the hooks are attached to one of the ribbons
 When this is secure you do not need to use but one fancy pin, which is run through the bow and the straw, holding the bow in place. It is a clever 1dea and should be welcomed with special cor dialty by the summer girl who knows by experience how ribbons fade when stead fly worn in the sum-
