There seems to be something ire
sistibly attractive to women in the
fluffy, nodding plumes of the ostrich,
and if this great bird could not be
bred on ostrich farms his race would
become extinct. Like many another
wearer of fine plumage, the goddess of
fashion would pursue him to the
death.
Although good ostrich plumes are
as costly as ever, they are in wider
demand than in all the history of mil
linery. Everyone wants plumes, and
other ostrich feathers, in all the va
ried beautiful mountings which the
artists make them up.
There is a wonderful variety to
choose from. The Introduction of
willow" plumes, that is those hav-
ing the fues heightened by tying on
extra pieces, has brought out all sorts
of color combinations and plumes of
long sweeping fibers. They are very
beautiful but not as practical as the
unpieced plumes. In buying high
priced ostrich feathers the French
plumes with long, slightly curled f1ues
are by far the best Investment They

NEW TOUCH IN JEWELRY
Quaint Idea That Has Only Recently
Made Its Appearance, and Is
Welcomed.

Jewelry, at any rate, in our loose
acceptance of the term, for no stones
are visible in this pretty fancy. have
spoken of the gold lace pins crocheted
with lace. Now far-seeing manufac-
turers have brought out wooden orna-
ments in all manner Of sorts and
shapes-collar pins, hat pins, belt buck
les, cuff links, slipper buckles
all to be covered with this GRO
cheted lace. One may have a whole
set of them for an afternoons work,
and they make the daintiest of gifts
for brides and next Christmasers."
If crocheting is not in your line, fine
lace can be darned around these wood
en- foundations, of dotted or figured
net may be used instead. Whatever
material is used, they are as quaint
and pretty as the lace-covered gold
pins, which is saying a great DEAL

The SWan-Like Throat.

This is to be great season for col
larless frocks.
But one pretty neck is often harder
to acquire than the dozens of chemis-
cites we may have done away with.
A good neck depends much upon the
general health, but considerable may
be done that is of direct benefit.
Many an otherwise lovely neck is
ruined by an awkward poise of the
head. The best cure for this is to sit
or walk each day with a book on
the head Do not stiffen the muscles
to hold this weight. Manage it by
balancing
Thinness of the neck should be an
easy fault to overcome.
Plenty of sleep and an abundance of
milk, with raw eggs beaten UP in it,
should help considerably.
The neck should be washed well
every night with warm water, followed
by a cold spray and massaged after
ward with a cold cream

can be cleaned and recurled at COM
paratively small outlay and may be
bought on a guarantee from the dealer
that they will stand wear. Moisture
doesn't do them any permanent harm.
On the other hand the willow plume
cannot be guaranteed to wear. Those
in black are especially fragile, some
thing in the dye causes them to come
united or to break off when the air
is damp. The white and light colors
wear better than black.
When one does not need to think of
economy there are beautiful effects to
be wrought out by using plumes with
pieced fiues, which are well worth
the price.
Three fall hats are illustrated here
showing the simplicity and richness
of ostrich used for trimming. They
are mounted in groups of three or
more toward the back of the hat as
rule. Nothing else is needed on the
shape and the addition of a band and
bow about the crown is a matter Of
choice, for a shape bearing full tuft
of plumes is amply trimmed.

Mint Sandwiches

Sandwiches of diminutive proper
tions which have become popular are
filled with fresh mint. They are
passed with the salad course, or at
buffet reception of any kind. with tea
or coffee. Here is the quickest meth
cd of preparing them:
Wash and dry the separate sprigs
of the herb and put them through the
meat chopper, using fine knife. Add
a little whipped cream and spread
between thin, small oblongs of wheat
en- bread.
Or chop the mint as above and
afterward stir it into small roll of
cream cheese. The delicately tinted
paste so formed is spread on slices of
bread or crackers, which are after
ward pressed together.

PRETTY FANCY OF FASHION
JeWeled Laces Are MarveIously Beau
tfuI, Though Only for Those
With Long Purses.

The very newest thing in jewelry is
the reproduction of old and priceless
laces in tiny pearls and diamonds
mounted upon gunmetal, platinum or
diamond net. The exact pattern Of
the lace is copied, and the whole Is
formed into jabot or a lace fall for
the collar. Sometimes there is bow
above, composed of some colored
stones-emeralds or amethysts or ru-
bies-set in solid
This new and wonderful work has
revolutionized the art Of the jeweler,
since the workmanship has become
quite as valuable as the stones them
selves. These laces of jewels are, of
course, ruinously expensive, but they
are such marvels of beauty that a wo-
man might well dispense with all 9TH
er ornament for the sake of possessing
one Of them.

THE Man SHE LOVED |.
BY EFFIE ADELAIDE ROWLANDS.

Miss Dorothy, if she can see him, he
said.
Enid shook her head.
81 will come down and tell him
my cousin can see no one tonight;
she Is terribly upset. Where is he,
Simmonds?"
"In the hall, miss"
DR.. Waters received the girls ex-
cuses as to her cousins non-appear-
ance very gravely.
81 am sorry she is i'll, but I quite
understand" he said, while he pulled
on his gloves; "this is very sudden
and very shocking"
"Yes; we had no idea my uncle was
SO i'll as he must have been" Enid
answered, as she passed her hand
over her throbbing brow
The doctor looked at her keen1y.
"He was no worse than he had been
for years, Miss Leslie" he said,
tersely.
"You mean" she began, hur-
riedly.
81 mean that Sir Robert might and
would probably have lived for years.
He has died from no disease, but from
an overdose of laudanum--a dose
strong enough to kill three men,"
Enid grew paler and paler.
"Laudanum?" she repeated, me-
chanically. How"
THAT is what we must discover,
the doctor finished, promptly. "There
must have been some carelessness
somewhere, and it must be inquired
into. That is why I wished to see
Miss Knebwell tonight"
"She is not fit to discuss this yeti"
Enid spoke with decision and was
astonished at her own firmness after
she had spoken.
s"Then tomorrow Anything / can
do you may depend, Miss Leslie, will
be done. I should advise you to ap-
prise Sir Roberts lawyers of his
death without delay. Some one
should be here in authority; it is too
much for girl like your cousin to
take on her shoulders.
