 Miss Georgiana ran to a closet climbed upon a chair, and handed down huge bandbox. Here, Margery, you take 1t and carry It, rery carctaHv, the bed You open 1t, too. if you want to. Don't you just love to open bandboxesT
 "Why, Margsry! Look! Isn't that the strangest thing you ever saw! That hat of yours and my hat positively twins! Your hat is black and my hat is black. Your hat has broad brfm and has mine. Just look at my hat and then look in the glass at yourself and you'll see what mean"
 Do you really think they look alike. Mss 0eor- gianaT
 "As like as two peas Why, do you know cut my hair short and put on your hat ana you puned your hair and wore my hat, why-why y--Miss Gsor- apart! And if my hats becoming to me as yours is to you, tell you what-Tll be satisfied"
 Do you really think my hats so becoming, Miss GeorganaT
 Becoming? Why, you never had such becoming hat! It's the prettiest thing ever saw you wear. Let try it on me and you try mine on you
 With Miss GeorRiana's hat on her head Morgery could scarcely believe that the lovely creature in the glass was herself. "Oh, Miss Georgana if my hat only had feathersw

Here lL IS, MaISefy. ASu ' 1t a beauty7 Wen. pin 1t first to see how 1t looks"
 There was no question about it's looking perfectly stunning. Margery gazed at 1t in the glass from every possible angle and then, parading up and down, watched its graceful rise and fall from the oor- ner of her eye. Just as Miss Georgiana began sew ing 1t on they heard the door bell ring.
 Good gracious, Margery, that must be the rest of the class, and here I am so interested in your hat that I'm not half dressed i! You'll just have to help me that's all there is about it."
 By their united efforts Miss Georgiana's dressing was soon finished.
 "And, Margery," she whispered, conaden&ially, as they started downstairs, "don't say anything to the others about that plume I gave you, because, of course, I can't give every one plumes."
 Margery squeezed Miss Georgiana's hand in token that she understood.
 And another thing, Margery: All the others will take their hats oil when they speak their pieces, but you just keep yours on without saying anything to anybody. Yours is too pretty to take on."
 
 "Where are the kids3 And did you actually carry out that fool scheme oS giving away their Christ mas presents?"
 "At the Sunday-school entertainment and if you say another word about 1t I shall break down, I know I shall"
 There was a grimness in her husbands manner that made the Blair mother vince. "Are-are those presents for the childrenV she asked, pointing to the parcels he carried.
 "You bet your boots they are." the Blair father as- sured her. "As long as I have anything to say about it, my kids are going to have jolly Christmases."

Bachelor Jimmy Hazen Hyde
has been captured at last. Hyde
has become famous through his
'extravagant entertainments made
possible by the enormous legacy
left him by his father from the
resources of the Equitable Life.
Among these was a costume fete
at Sherry's costing $4,000,
another a dinner to Sara Bern
hardt which cost him 100000.
4 is also said that Jimmy paid his
barber $40 a day for the expert
manner in which he trimmed his
whiskers, a la Paris.
After all these years of bach
elorhood Hyde fell a victim to
the charms of a Divorce, Mrs.
Sidney j, Smith, whose maiden
name was Fannie Taller and who
was known as one of the most ex-
pert amateur whips in New York's
400. Her husband was a celebrat-
ed cross-country rider and prize
winner at horse shows. They were
married in Grace church, New
York, in 1896 by the late Bishop
Potter. Then came the convenient
"incompatibility," and about three
years ago they were divorced.

said, "has compelled women to
place stigma upon their SEX
1t is a painful fact that unless
a man and woman love each other,
or are sacrificing themselves for
the sake of their children, they
have no right to live together.
Yet there are millions who do and
must. If woman YVES given eco
monte independence it would re-
lieve her of that stigma. It would
seem also that it would relieve
her of her chief moral defect
her circumlocution, by which she
gets around men, whether during
the illusions of courtship, or the
rifling of pockets after marriage.
THE difficulty is that not only
is woman dependent upon man,
but all her rich nature, the sum
total of her personality, is depend
ent upon one mans income. Gem
orally marriage is spiritual rela-
tionship, a social institution. Love
may be made in heaven and many
marriages may be infused with
love, but it really is a social de-
vice for the protection of chill
dren."

And in the foreground of the

typical of London as the Nelson
column or the national gallery

streets of London are crowded
with these vehicles, some drawn
by horses and some driven by
motors, and all London rides in
them or on them. Street cars are
comparatively scarce in London.
