gerry of every kind gave the cabin the
atmosphere of a sportsman's club.
The men talked freely Of everything
but themselves. They spoke of many
cities. but never of their homes. They
told me they were college chums who
had always made 1t custom to spend
a few months together each fall In the
woods. They were clever men and
readily passed for the lawyer, the doc
tor and the merchant, the characters
they respectively pretended to be. The
one to whom the other two deferred in
everything was large, powerful man

to the village the night before for sup

The coat is slightly narrower than
those of last winter across the shoul-
ders at back. The fronts are double
breasted. fastened with huge buttons
of brilliants set in composition like
platinum.
The revers, which are quite broad
are made of old blue satin, that very
good looking tone that comes in SO
many fabrics. These are slightly en-
broidered with a heavy silver thread
forming bees The long sleeves are
without fullness, each fastened tightly
at wrist with button of brilliants,
and finished with frill of old lace.
The blouse that rises above this
high-waisted skirt is built of gray filet
tulle in the coarse round mesh that is
fashionable. It is draped over thin
silver gauze, and shows round
guimpe and stock of Mechlin lace. It's
sleeves are long and tight, made of
tulle wrapped around the arm.

carries into the woods with him, | left
the train one day at the wayside sta
ton which bore the name of the post
mark. Securing a guide and cook, in
the. person of lanky native, | had my
truck hauled out to the st. Francis
river, only two miles distant, where
pitched camp and made preparations
for an indefinite stay.
BY making inquiry OF my visitors, |
learned that about FIVE miles down the
river were camped. in snug cabin
built by themselves, three gentlemen
from parts unknown. They maintained
the place as a sort OF club and had
spent the spring season there. They
left about March and we're gone until
October, when they returned one night
and again took possession OF their
cabin. Our raid on the cave had been
made on the 18th Of October, and this
caused me to think that perhaps the
empty envelope was making good.
"As the three gentlemen did not
deign to visit my camp. decided to
make a call upon them.
Il started out in a folding canvas
canoe, late in the afternoon, and ar
rived in the vicinity of their camp just

Makes Fine sofa pillows

II one has an old-fashioned coverlet
in rich blue and white, such as our
grandmothers used on their beds, they
can be made over into charming sillr
sofa pillows.
While few women would be willing
to cut up good spread for this pur-
pose, It is a happy solution for the
coverlet that is worn in places.
Not only do they make attractive
pillow slips, but If they are made to
button on they can be laundered re-
peatedly and will wear for years.
There are now to be found many
cheap modern spreads in imitation OF
the old-time quilts. These one need

all sized pillows.
