solitary tea. He enjoyed it after a
fashion, then, pushing his chair back,

great elaboration, and drew forth
the written sheet within. He i'm

II felt so glad when / read your

Rights of Fiancees.

The law courts of Gottingen have
just delivered a weighty decision af-
fecting the rights and liberties of
fiancees.
Some weeks ago young Berlin ar
chitect had a visit from his be-
trothed, Gottingen lady. She stayed
in the capital over the week end, and
the architect escorted his sweetheart
back to the station, where, he fondiy
thought, he saw her in the train safe
ly bound for Gottingen.
1t appears. however, that the lady
was reluctant to tear herself away
from the joys of the metropolis. ST.
renlike, Berlin beckoned her back,
and at the second station she left the
train and returned to the city, where
she stayed till the next morning.
Some kind friend impaired intelli-
gence of this to the architect, and
added that his fiancee had been seen
unescorted in the Friedrichstrasse
The architect at once wrote to his
sweetheart, demanding explanations.
Receiving no reply, he broke off the
engagement and instituted proceed
ings for return of his presents and
the money he had spent during his
betrothal, including cab fares, rail-
way tickets from Gottingen to Berlin,
and the lady's board while she was
here.
Her explanation of her conduct was
that she was tired to the point of en-
nut of the intellectual life of Coffin
gen, and sighed for the renowned
midnight revels of Berlin. The courts
decided that she had done nothing to
justify her lover breaking off the en-
gagement, and dismissed the action,
adding that there was no proof that
the lady's escapade reflected in the
least upon her character.
Breach of promise cases are I'M
known to German law, so the Coffin
gen lady cannot mend her broken
heart with coin of the realm-Berlin

Hints on Letter Writing.

When writing letters a woman
should keep in mind the following
rules:
Business letters should be concise
and clear, because business people are
supposed to be busy.
No letter is complete without the
date.
In writing to solicit employment OF
any kind, on no account should per-
sonal perplexities or needs be men,
toned. The world is full of unfortu-
nate persons, and to a stranger the
troubles of one are no more than
those of host of others.
Letters OF introduction are left
open when written.
deliberately ornamented note paper
and highly perfumed notes are vulgar.
When answering letters remember:
That written words stand as ever
lasting witnesses.
That an ambiguous sentence is like
ly to be misinterpreted.
That friendly word never harms.
That a written word of sympathy
can sometimes do much good.
That letter written in kindly
spirit should be answered in the same
way, even though the message is dis
liked.
That business letters and invita-
tons must be answered at once.
That a lady acknowledges any
friendly offer of hospitality, even
though it be not by Acceptance

Girls Dress.

Such little dress as this one can
be made simple, adapted to morning
wear, or dressy and suited to after
noon occasions, as one material or the
other is utilized. A simple washable
material in blue makes the one illus
trated, and the yoke, belt and sleeve
bands are of white. A more elaborate
effect could be obtained, however, by
making the dress of white linen or
white lawn and the yoke and trim
ming portions of embroidery or of the
material embroidered or braided by
hand. A eainty dress could be made
by using Dresden dimity or lawn with
the trimming portions of the same
or of white as preferred, and the
model will be found just as satisfac-
tory for one style as for another.
The skirt is straight, consequently
laundering is simple matter.
The dress is made with body and

Then Mr.. Courtenay Piles admir-

cursed his subordinate in no meas

tempted to rebel against the destiny
that kept him tied to sick bed while

known how mighty was the influence

When Wakelyn got back to his
| simple, pare quarters at the village
inn that night, two letters waited
for him, both from his home.
He opened the boys letter first,
and when he read 1t a tender smile
lowered about his lips, and something
very like tears yelled his eyes. 1t had
nothing to do with the case that had
been decided that day; it was merely,
as Wakelyn expressed it later. a love-
letter from the boy, who missed his
| father and his chum more than he
had words to tell. 1t warmed Wake
