The adventure was taking a new
turn. Groener, evidently, had some
definite plan which he hoped to carry
out. Coquenil felt for cigarettes in his
coat pocket and his hand touched the
friendly barrel of a revolver. Then he
glanced back. and saw the big auto
mobile, which had been waiting for
hours, trailing discreetly behind with
Tignol (no longer a priest) and two
sturdy fellows, making four men with
the chauffeur, all ready to rush up for
attack or defense at the lift of his
hand. There must be some miraculous
~interposition if this man beside him,
his baby-faced wood-carver, was to
get away now as he did that night on

Would Be a Librarian.

My Dea Miss Doom:
Could you kindly tell me what the
average salary of a librarian is; also,
whether one must start as a sort of
errand-girl, or, by taking a course on
the subject, start as librarian immedi-
ately? -.
Would a High School graduate COM
mand a larger salary than a plain pub
lie school graduate?
Are there many such positions va
cant. or would it be hard to obtain
one?
Thanking you in advance for you
great kindness in this matter, l am,
9gt M. M.
The salary varies, according to the
position; it is as low as twenty-five and
as high as a hundred dollars a month.
One must be a college graduate and
take a library course, fitting her for
that special branch of work. There are
errand-girls and assistants for whom
the requirements are not so strict, but
they never rise above those positions.
The demand for Librarians is small and
the hours long.

For the Dance.
Dear Miss Doom:

Dear Miss Doon:
] wish to go to a dance. Is a dress
with a train out of place on the dane
ing floor? If not, advise me how to
hold it up, whether with ribbon or
cord. l.. have a short white lingerie
dress; if 1 decide to wear this, what
color slippers and stockings will I need
for the occasion? The dress is
trimmed with pink ribbon
MRS. H. c. r.
1t would be in better taste n much
more convenient for you and your part
ners to wear the dress without a train.
Black slippers are always good form,
although white is equally permissible;
both have the advantage of harmonic
ing well with any color. If you wear a
dress cut en- %traine. an inconspicuous
cord the same. color as the dress will
serve to hold the train up.

TRIMMING SUGGESTIONS.


Banding in deep colors is used to
bring into bold relief the best features
of a gown. Where drapery crosses at
the front of the skirt and passes to the
edges are outlined with a darlSer color,
thus bringing out the pattern distinctly.
There are numerous good forms OF
sashlike 'empiecements that encircle the
low corsage, front back and under he
arms. These call for trimming detail.
The narrow V-shaped opening of the
bodice and the edges of short sleeves
are more pronounced with a vivid out
line of color.

FOREMOST FASHIONS.


This is to be a year of contrasts. One
color suits n costumes will be as un-
usual, perhaps, as combinations were
last year.
Dresses for formal wear are of de-
cided elegance, though there is the
usual good assortment of plain tailor
mades.
While the useful trotteur suit is
usually developed of serge, broad dag
onals and the like, it will be less seen
as the season advances.
Linens and silks certainly will take
precedence.
All drapery fabrics will be used in
the fancy dress. They are looped, gath
cred, entwined and twisted as grace
fully as zephyrs around a rose.

WHEAT some business girls need badly is the de-
W. velopment of their sense of the appropriate.
People talk about a pretty stenographer,
who works in New York, because she insists on wear
ing fluffy, perisha bic clothes every day, despite her long
trip back and forth by train and trolley.
She'll leave her home on a cold morning, wearing q
warm fur coat, to be sure. But her shoes will be of
the thinnest sort, her gloves will be dainty and delicate,
and her hat will be a fyaway creation adorned with
plumes that were never intended for uncertain weather.
If a sudden snow squall should come up it would be
a bedraggled little stenographer indeed who reached her
destination.
