Halloween Expectations

Over in Ireland Halloween, or Sam bain's night, is a festival of mourning rather than jollity; for on this evening the fairies are said to depart from the woods and moorlands, not to return until another summer. Halloween, according to the ancient Druidical notion, falls on the last day of summer and the name, Sam bain's night, means summers end. On this night the fairies troop out from their haunts and have aparting danc1 with the witches. gnomes and banshees. Everybody who has been in Ireland on Sambain's night knows very well that at midnight the wind rises and howls forlornly through the trees and over the housetops; and Irish little folk are quite positive that this dismal wailing Is not the wind at all. but the lament of the fairies at being banished from their months until May day.
 No parties seem to be quite so much fun as the two Irish celebrations of St. Patrickss day and Halloween. No other festivities offer an opportunity for such unconventional and informal good times, and for these two occasions particularly interesting and tempting favors are to be had in the shops The fascinating gnomes, hobgoblins, ghosts, witches, bats cats and queer vegetable people fairly coax the pennies out of one's pocket book until the little party that one has planned threatens to turn into an appall- ingly expensive affair."

The Witcheries Of Halloween

What can you expect of the little ones who are so interested in Halloween when the grown-ups eyince just as much pleas ure in its celebration as when they, too, were but Il or 12 years of age
 The children know more of these gave ties than anyone else because to tap windows. bob for apples or have, per haps, a Halloween party Is the height of their pleasure. for such occasions
 There is no street parade and none of the masquerading that we find in carni- val times of other towns, so while you are enjoying yourselves 1t Is well at the same time to congratulate yourselves that you are a little girl or boy and able to have all the fun you wish without stint.
 There Is no better place to give a Halloween party than the barn. It may be decorated to suit your own wishes and they may be elaborate and artistic or they may be weird, and still the possi- bilities are all the greater when you can feel your hiarity may have it's vent and do no damage to the fine furnishings of a home.
 Cover the interior of the barn with yell low cheesecloth and to this fasten branches of autumn leaves. ears of red

 If she expects long months of trav-| cling she must include several smart| suits with dainty waists to match anal some pretty restaurant gowns.

 Here is a list of costumes that wNl| prove practical and satisfactory for thel average bride with an average sociall connection. Of course, it can be cut or| enlarged according to each individuals taste and need.
 One smart tailored suit
 One dainty afternoon gown.
 Two dinner gowns.
 Two dancing frocks.
 One smart utility coat
 One evening cloak
 Added to this must be several house dresses, some elaborate for afternoon entertaining; others simpler for the auIetl home evenings.
 The afternoon gown should preferably be of velvet, trimmed with fur and worn| with huff and collar to match.
 The dinner gown should be simple, but rich in material while the dancine| froclSs may be as youthful as the bride s| years demand.

among the ignorant" she said know
 ingly.
 If a person as eminent as Charles
 Dickens was superstitious enough to
 refuse to lie down to sleep unless his
 bed was placed due north and south; l;
 when McCauly and Max Muller con-
 fessed to such weakness; when DeFoe
 noted among the portents of the great plague that there was "a running about to fortune tellers, cunning men and
 astrologers;" and when Justin Me Carthy relates how the great Parnell gravely checked her for stirring her coffee "the wrong way" when our friend Dr. Johnson declared that he was impelled to touch a certain rail or post in his accustomed walk and tread in the middle of a particular paving stone, I think poor little humble atom of humanity like myself ought not to feel that I am absolutely relegated to the ignorant class who believe in su- perstitions."
 But mean. for instance, Halloween superstitions," said Peggy evasively. Did you ever know one to come true?' "Yes, I have" I replied, recalling
 some very wonderful things that had come under my observation. Even to lose who are not superstitious and who do not believe In signs and things, queer coincidences have taken place. It
 may have been only coincidence but at any rate things happened For instance?" inquired Peggy. "Glrls have been known to marry" l related
 T don't believe Halloween supersti- tions had anything to do with that" she replied. You know I am not supersti- tious.
 But even if you are not. you must acknowledge that strange things do hap pen" I asserted.

You don't mean to say that you have reached your age in life and haven't discovered what St. Joseph's are good for?" 'I knew man once who carried one,'
 remarked casually, .'and somebody took it. and he vowed that 1t took away his luck, and he raised an awful hulla-ba-loo about it, but that's all do know When I went to school" Peggy be- gan. q read little French story-quite

Making Straight Hair Perma-
 nently Curly

'Imagine having hair as straight as an Indians said a pretty womsn to me the other day, ''and in less than 12 hours having it transformed into the prettiest, softest ringlets that you could't tell from naturally curly hair.'
 Look at mine" she continued, as she shook out her long, beautiful. wavy, tresses. 'T have just had it done by the new process and it's wonderful"
 But does't it come out when your hair is shampooed?' I asked curiously as l made an almost microscopic examination of the ladys hair.
 Mine was done several weeks ago and have had my hair shampooed three times and the curls, you can see for your self are as tight and pretty as though like Topsy, they had growed that way"
 Isn't it damaging to the hair?'' I in quired persistently, trying to pick flaw somewhere in the process.
 Not in the least" said the pretty woman enthusiastically" You see in the first place the artist who invented the process could't afford to get up anything that would be injurious to the hair be- cause woman doesn't want to do any thing to her 'crowning glory that would spoil 1t eventually. I have always said that anybody who would invent any sort of scheme to make straight hair curly, would get rich in a jiffy and here, To and behold, here comes a clever Frenchman who has an invention that curls the straightest hair and gives a guarantee that 1t will last six months. Think of all the people who have prayed that in their next incarnation they'd be curly headed, having Pandora's box opened right here on earth to them and the waviest, pret- tiest hair furnished in less time than it takes to tell it, while they sit in the privacy of their boudoir."
 "I suppose every woman in Birmingham will have curly hair now" I suggested
 Well, I'm one of the first" said my pretty friend proudly. "and I am the happiest woman in the world No more will I look like a fright when I get up In the morning.; no more kid curriers' and curling tongs; no more worrying when I go out; but just blssfuly beau tiful. happiness to know that for six months, at least, I am to be curly headed. And best of all the clever artist who in- troduced the process through the south has chosen Birmingham as the first van tage point and in this way we are saved the expense of trip to New York to have 1t done"
 What won't they do next" I exclaimed | in -consternation. 'T suppose they'll be | taking peoples eyes and putting in the | kind to match their gowns, or quietly shaving a nose off that is too Roman | esque In appearance, and substituting for | it the sauciest. cunningest. little one of the "pug" variety, and heaven knows | what else.

Collette began her neuvaine, and one day while the sweet little maid was busy with her prisons great gust of wind came and blew her little clay image-her beloved St. Joseph-from the sill of her easement window into the snow beneath Fortunately before 1t reached the ground it hit handsome young Frenchman who happened to be riding past"
 q thought you said suitors never came that way" I interposed.
 This one wasn't sutor-at least he didn't think he was going to be, but the St. Joseph willed it otherwise, said Peg gy emphatically "and being injured by the little clay image as it fell to earth he had to be brought into the house and cared for and nursed by Collette until he was well again and perfectly good nobleman once more. At least I suppose he was a nobleman--if he wasn't, he ought to have been At any rate, he was a very nice young man. And collette married-'' ~
 The nobleman,' finished out her sentence for her. And that is why your faith in St. Joseph's was established?''
 That was the beginning" she said rapturously. 'I had a personal experi- ence, too" al

 'Is a rumor pure and simple,' re- turned Peggy severely. "I refer to the experience as connected with friend of mine who read the little French story with me. We stopped at Atlantic City in September on our way home from Bar Harbor, and one day on the Board Walk we stopped to look in one of those at- tractive little curio shops and we esped a whole tray of little silver St. Josephs We looked at each and both of us re- called the story of Collette and her noble man, and my friend decided that she'd buy one of the little images-just for fun"
 And now?" I questioned.
 My friends engagement was an- nounced the past week." related Peggy juhilantly. She is going to marry the very incest man know and I don't be- lieve he had any idea of asking her until she bought that little St. Joseph.''

 Only about St. Joseph's,' Peggy said defending her position.
 And are yon now wearing the anu let?" I asked her.
 Tentatively she replied: "Yes. and when I get through with 1t, If the charm works, I am going to lend it to all my girl friends who want it.''
 But I thought 1t belonged to your friend" I said rather puzzled.
 Tt did" said Peggy, but che has no more use for it now that she is going to be married"
