CONTINUED From Yesterday,

The moment he glimpsed the shadow
of Cayley's wings against the stars ne
began making his way, cautiously, oVer
the crusted snow, toward the pilot
house. The distance was not great
not more than half a. mile-but progress
over that glazed precipitous surface
was necessarily slow He had no
chance to stand erect, and most OF the
way he had literally to crawl, often
cutting little holes in the crust with his
knife to dig his fingers and toes into.
But he was tireless as we'll as per-
sistent, and at last he drew himself
over the crown of Cayley's tunnel. let
himself down and dropped, with a t
like lightness for so heavy a man, just
outside the pilot-house door.
The door was closed, but there was a
light shining out through a crack be-
meath 1t. 1t was a glass door, but
something had been hung over the glass
so thai he could not see into the in
terror.
Both Jeanne and Philip had made the
mistake of assuming that the only way
of access TO the pilot-house. except to
Philip with his wings, was the ice
chimney. 1t was a natural mistake
enough-one hat almost n but a
mountaineer would have
made.
Furthermore, they had no reason
either of them-for anticipating an at
tack on the pilot-house while Philip was
gone. They had been living here, now,
for weeks, in unbroken security. So,

a small square yoke of tucked net, dyed

effect of slimness. For a street suit I
would suggest black panama with a

made plain and the coat semi-httlng

Above all, practise holding your
shoulders back. You will never look
well as long as you permit yourself to
be round-shouldered. :

JAPANESE CURTAINS.

Japanese bead curtains mad of crepe
paper have their possibilities not only
in fitting up booths and rooms for
bazars. but also for dens at home. The
paper is cut In inch-wide lengthwise
strips and folded double. Then he
strips are pasted together into the re-
quired lengths. At intervals narrow
paper strips of a contrasting color
yellow or black or both are always
good-are rolled around and around the
strips until a hard bugle effect is had.
The strips hang from any sort of a
wire-substantiated band or frieze. One
such curtain is in three colors-red,
green and tan. with yellow and black
bugles.

Embroidered muslins and %iouncings

are being much used for little girls
dresses. This one is made with skirt

f~iouncing, the edge of which has been
cut off to make the trimming n the

a stock collar as preferred, and the
same model can be varied almost in
definitely. If it were made of rose
colored linen with bands of plain white
it would make an attractive and serv-
iceable dress for morning wear. This
one is dainty in the extreme. The
model suits both dresses equally well
and also can be utilized for the pongee
that little girls are wearing so much,
indeed, for every seasonable- material.
The skirt is straight and consequently
it can be used either for bordered ma

THE DUTCH QUEENS SKIN.

Most people who nave seen her have
remarked on Queen Wilhelmina's won
derful complexion, but few know that
she has a special recipe for keeping
the skin in perfect condition. Some
time ago she adopted the practise from
the Dutch Indies of taking lemon
baths, Five or six lemons are squeezed
into the bath. and various scents are
then added. This bath is said to be a
great invigorator, and, thanks to the
queen, has become very popular among
Dutch society beauties.

BEWARE OF DAMPNESS.

The dampness of summer, especially
in the dog days, is bad for bed linen.
Few housekeepers think that damp
sheets are as injurious in summe as
in winter.
Insist upon sheets being ironed dry,
and if uncertain that your commands
are obeyed have a responsible person
examine them before they are made
up ip the bed. If there is the least
dampness, air them for a half hour or
hour.
Glycerin will remove coffee ana tea
stains from linen. Pour it over the
stained parts, u in well and wash IN
the usual way.

The Best Time 10 Plant Cotton in
IleeYiI Territory

Last year there was some mis-
understanding IN Southwest Missis-
|sippi as to what the Department of
Agriculture meant when early
planting, as a means of avoiding
boil weevil damage. was advocated.
Some farmers got the impression
that by early planting was
meant March planting. and, as a
consequence. many Of them had to
plant over. To help avoid a recur-
renee Of this is the object Of this
article.
In this latitude there has always
been a period during which the
planting Of cotton has given max
mum yield. Roughly. this period
lies between the 5th and the 25th
l.of April. Now let It always be
understood that the time Of plant-
ing that gave the greatest yield
before the Weevil came is also the
best time to plant where the weeviI
is factor. That is, if on an
average the best yields have been
made heretofore BY planting about
April 10th. then this will continue
to be the best time to plant. Any
thing earlier will grow off more

the long run. will be no earlier
