CONTINUED From Saturday,

Tom Tramberley. the eldest son, is in
read with Elton a certain well-known
Portsmouth crammer's. at q time when
he, too. had thoughts of going into the
Life Guards. He had taken a great
liking to Tom, who was three years his
Junior, and not without cause. for
Tramberley though he be, he is not
without certain niceness of his own,
which would merit some notice only
that he has nothing to do with this his
tory. He is away at sea now, where
we will leave him, but month ago he
was on leave, and, meeting Elton one
day in the park, the intimacy was soon
renewed. As Tom knew nothing of So
city, he had listened to the family
prayer and made point of bringing
his "swell' friend to the parental wild
beast show in the moldy little house in
the moldy little street near the Edgware
road.
Besides Tom there is one Tramberley
who Is really nice, and whom we have
not yet seen, for she Is already at
Cheltenham, gone on a visit to horrid
old aunt, who bullies and makes a
servant of Eer. and that is Angela, the
second daughter. who Is 10, and very
pretty as girls go.
Her elder sister Lucy. the girl yor
saw packed up in the cab, is decidedly
plain, and all the Tramberleys have

Elton was not merely too clear

said that he was very unjust, for he
failed to make reservation in his cyni-
cal estimate of girls of the season in
favor of those exceptional ones who
bring genuine wares to the great matri-
monial bazar.

rose silk, daintily embroidered in a
rather darker tone, and finished off
with vandyle frills of creamy lace at
the bottom; while the coat is of gulpure
lace trimmed with frills of finer lace
to match those on the skirt, which are
edged with threads of rose -eolored che
Nile, and girdle to match goes about
the waist.
A lace coat of this description would
also show up to great advantage over
a skirt of pale colored chiffon, trimmed
with gauged frills of the same semi
transparent fabric, with waisteoat to
match let into the bodice, and, if de-
sired, the decolletage might be filled up
to the neck either with transparent
lace or finely gauged chiffon to match
the skirt White Irish crochet lace
would make a smart coat over a pale
blue chiffon skirt, and the idea might
also be carried out in black or colored
laces with good effect.

fuss about it,
One day. at school time, the usual
trouble was experienced. Then it was
that her mother took Rosalie to one

do you know that it is very naughty
not to keep nice and clean and neat?
Do you know that many animals and
insects take great pride in their appear
ance ana would not think of doing
what you have done?'
"Do they?" asked Rosalie.
Indeed they do. Just watch Pussy
moment; see how carefully she is
combing her sleek fur and washing her
face with her paws. Why, if her coat
gets mussed ever so little, she will spend
a long time making it clean again
And then look at the birds. DO you see
how they are smoothing their feathers
down with their beaks If they didn't
I am sure they would look very ragged
and untidy in no time. Then notice the
tiny flies. How carefully they brush
their Heads and their wings with their
legs DO you want all these little crea-
lures to dc cheerfully what you do so
unwillingly?"
"And they never cry, either, do they?
said Rosalie thoughtfully.

HER PARENTS OBJECT.

Dear Miss Doom:
I am a girl of Is years. and l love a
young man of 81. He loves me and
wishes to marry me. He has a very
good position and gets a good salary.
He is a perfect gentleman. My parents
are well-to-do. My parents are greatly
opposed to the match. Now, Miss Doom,
will you kindly advise me in the mat
ter. as I love him but do not know
what to do. ANXIOUS.
Tell your parents just how much you
care for this young man. If they OPP
pose the match without reason, you will
be wise in marrying him anyway. You
cannot afford to lose your life's happi-
ness to crafty the whim of parent

FROM A GIRL OF THIRTEEN.

My Dear Miss Doom:
1 am a well-grown girl of 13. 1 know
a young man of IS who has asked me
to marry him as soon as am old
enough. He has asked me several
times very earnestly, but 1 always say
no. AS 1 will be wealthy when 1 am of
age do you think he is after me or the
money? DOUBTFUL.
If I was your mother 1 would give
you a sound scolding; one that you
would remember. You are entirely too
young to entertain thoughts Of young
men. Eight years from now will be

The gingham shirt waists designed
from fine French materials are calling
for no special trimming save that OF
the fabric itself, which is cut and in
laid in bias folds across the front of the
waist, possibly three wide folds being
displayed on the front of one garment.
The yoke should be circular also cut on
the bias, and the cuffs should show
bands of bias trimming. While this
breaks the plaid effect. the harmony is
not destroyed, since the materials are
alike though placed so opposite to each
other The idea is clever for an un-
trimmed tailored waist.

Scalp massage, and brushing the hair
daily, for ten or fifteen minutes, will
bring about a healthy circulation and
an oily condition of the scalp that will
be natural. The following lotion will
be found invaluable when the hair is
very dry:
Picnic acid-Two grams.
Tincture of nux vomica-Seven and
one-half grams.
Tincture of red cinchona-Thirty
grams.
Tincture of cantharides - Two
grams.
Cologne-1S0 grams.
Sweet almond oil-Sixty grams
The lotion should be applied to the
scalp with a small silk sponge once or
twice a day. You should have the
broken ends of your hair singed by

The girl who likes to have her room
as pretty as possible is always on the
alert for new ideas in sofa cushions. A
charming and inexpensive idea is the
autograph" cushion, the foundation
of which is usually of unbleached linen,
On this the friends and relatives of
the girl write their names either in
actual size of their own writing or a
little larger in pencil. The script is
then embroidered in the outline stitch,
generally in red, although sometimes
black is used, and when names are
written in many directions the cover
is really effective.
1t is made up with ruffle of silk to
match the color of the outlining, or
sometimes a heavy silk cord is used.
In any case the back of the pillow is Of
the same material as the foundation of
the many autographs, and it may easily
be removed and washed when much
handling has soiled it.

tread of the carpet should be moved
couple of inches or so either up or
down. This has the effect of keeping the
pile of the carpet in a uniform condi-
ton, and, besides retaining the fresh
