Grandpa Storm thought it was
about time for Fleecy Cloud to
see something of the world, so he
ordered him to go for sail.
Fleecy Cloud didn't like to leave
grandpa's, where most of his
brothers and sisters lived, but
favorable breeze came blowing by
and encouraged him so he set sail.
He really enjoyed floating lazily
through the air. looking at the
rivers and lakes and the big cit
les below him and the farmers
blowing In their ields. Toward
shutdown Fleecy Cloud felt him
self growing bigger, and he sailed
through the air much faster, as the
wind began to blow.
The next morning he was glad
when the sun came up and he
could again see what was going on
below. He kept on growing larger
and larger till he knew he must
look like Grandpa Storm. The

The people below him ran for shell

scolded the wind for hurrying him
so, and his voice was so loud and
heavy that people cried: "Oh, how
it thunders!"
When the zigzag lightning
called to Fleecy to hurry on. poor
Fleecy would growl and thunder
back that he didn't want to go.
But when he saw how glad the
people were to have his tears come
pouring down and how refreshed
the trees and grass looked he hur-
ried along more willingly, and he
soon reached Grandpa Storms
house again, where he had great
fun telling his little brother and
sister clouds all about his travels
and experiences.

They are grand duchesses, the

They are shown shopping on the

This is one of the most charm
ing frocks of the summer for
young girls, and it will be seen as
the season wanes in heavier mate
rails. Nothing could be more be-
coming to graceful, slender figures
than this style, and 1t is a safe
prediction that it will be popular
for long time to come.
The dress illustrated is made in
soft cream Henrietta cloth, with
black sating ribbon garnitures.
The broad sash is an innovation.
Otherwise the dress is quite
simple. The skirt is scant plated
one, very short, and requiring per-
fectly shod feed.
Mothers will see in this model
many possibilities for the serious
question of school dresses. With
the aid of good plain pattern and
an inventive mind, two or three
dresses can be made after this
style, but still be quite different.

Mrs. Melton Langham sent the
Little Witch to Fairfield to find a
mice, dear husband with Chester
fieldian manners and a safety de-
lposit vault in the bank" Those
are the exact words Mrs. Melton
Langham used in the little blue
tinted note she forwarded to me;
and I was the person intrusted
with the hazardous process of
finding.
The Little Witch arrived next
day. She had great, brown, soulful
eyes like a sixteenth century Ma
donna and you would have
thought her a saint at least. But
when l offered to introduce young
Harold Glenning whom we passed
as We drove from the station, she
tossed her brown-ringleted head
and blazed fiercely:

Courtney. "Please drive up. I'm

three pounds from a .rump of
beef. Lay the steak over the

pin beat it on each side for one
minute. Season each side with
one teaspoonful of black pepper.
Put in a skillet two large table
