a single sheet of cotton wadding
which has been sprinkled with sachet.

the wrong side and drawing it very
smooth and taut.>

COMBS AND PINS.

The plain amber-colored combs and
pins for the blonde girl, and those Of
dark shell for the brunette, are en-
tirely correct this winter
The combs are smarter when made
with plain tops, without knobs or 9TH
er decorations.
The button pins are used where
the hair is worn on top of the head.
The top part of these pins turns back
over the hair in fiat piece of shell
like large button.
The effect is very good
For keeping flying ends of the hair
at home are shown corkscrew pins
of amber-strange-loo things that
screw into the hair spiral fashion, so
that 1t would seem that they never
would come ont again.
But they are. in fact, comparatively
easy of adjustment

an agonized squeal from directly un-
derneath her sent her sailing across
the aisle. She landed in a group of
school girls, her package knocking off
their hats. The bag had rolled off the
seat and the way the occupant
squirmed and squealed caused most
of the women folks to tuck their skirts
tightly around their feet. One Of the
men had picked up the bag and was
trying to pacify the contents.
II want those men arrested"
shouted the woman. They've got a
baby in that bag, the brutes!"
What's in it?" demanded the con-

out of fare.
"Tools" chorused the men.
Thinking the men were fooling him
the conductor grabbed the bag. In the
tussle which followed the string

finally dragged from under a seat by
Special Officer Edward j. Manton, of
the S. p. c. A., who happened to be
on the rear platform.
He placed the two men under ar
rest, charging them with cruelty to
animals. They said they were Jacob

Something New in
Line of Amusement

The invitations were ornamented
with flock of wild geese flying madly
over the page and the words were:
Come to Beverly Farm on Tuesday at
half after eight"
Every one receiving this unique
message was filled with curiosity as to
what the proceedings would be. When
all had arrived the hostess had a slip
of paper for each one on which was
written the first direction; of course
each one was different.
One said: 60 look under the UNI
brella jar" There was slip under

into the music room and look at the
pedals Of the piano" TO them was at.

find your reward" There was a
souvenir or favor for each one. In
fact, there were duplicates, and when
man and woman found the same

easily be seen how jolly this affair
may be II the hostess uses plenty of
ingenuity in the planning of the
"clIases." The guests entering into II
will have loads of fun, as they encoun

practical in pairing couples for cards
or in any game where partners are
