the collar and long silver chain
set with blue stones helps out
wonderfully. The semi-transpar-
ent yoke of gold or silver net veil

If the dress must be kept all
black, lace or net yoke and un-

and render it less trying.

trying than the black dress with
a dead-white guimpe and sleeves.

DIAMOND RING FOUND
 AFTER MANY YEARS
Sam N. Seip Recovers s25o Spark
 Ter.

Things have been coming the way of Sam N. Seip lately. He has lately been married and he supposed that was as much happiness as he could really ask for one year But the tide of good luck did not stop there. On Saturday morn ing he came into possession of s250 diamond ring which he lost nine years ago. And it may be observed parenthet- ically that if he had not got married he would not now have that ring for it was found by his little stepdaughter by a method that nobody else would have thought of trying. The ring was found in the front yard of his. resi- dence where he had spent hours and hours hunting for it for he believed that he could go within six feet of the place where he had lost it. After that in the last nine years four sets of ten ants have been trampling the ground hard over the lost treasure.
 One evening nine years ago, MT. Seip located a hen which had stolen her nest under some bushes in the front yard. He tried to catch her and after brief struggle she eluded bis grasp and he chased the hen about the yard. into the clump of bushes again and finally captured her.
 Having put her where she belonged, in the rear, he sat down on the porch to congratulate himself upon the achievement. Then he noticed the ab- sence of the ring which in the melee had slipped from his little finger He got a lamp and explored the ground where he had the encounter with the hen and the next morning he renewed the search without result. For months after that he made desultory explora- tions but there was no sign of the ring.
 His little stepdaughter had been giv- en to playing with the garden hose and was conducting hydraulic mining on a small scale. She had bored holes all over the front yard contrary to in structions.
 On Saturday morning, while MT. Seip
 was still lying in bed he heard her cry: T found a wing. I found q wing"
 MT. Seip's mind immediately ran ! back to the wing he had lost nine years before and he sprang out of bed and dressed in haste. When he first saw the ring it was an unpromising piece of jewelry covered with mud. But the application of water restored it and the carat and a half diamond began sparkling with fierce intensity as if the stone wished to make up for those nine years of obscurity.
 But something had to be done to show MT. Seip that earthly happiness | is not without alloy for that same night providence sent a centipede with very warm feet across the back of his neck.
