CHEATED FOR YEARS.
Prejudice Will Cheat Us Often 1t We

G. ONE inventive designer of milli-
~ merry, taking note of the strong
points of the oriental turban, and
seeking for something new, brought
forth the new flexible hat of velvet.
The queer but charming ding -a-ling'
hat burst upon New York and prompt
ly captivated it. Naturally it has been
followed by any number of soft hats
and caps of velvet and other mate
rials suitable for winter
The ''ding-a-ling" hat is a pointed
cone of velvet with rolled up rim
next the face. It is guiltless of wire
except for single small shirring
wire inserted about the brim edge. 1t
is lined with silk or satin and inter
lined with rice-net. The crown is
made of four conical pieces sewed to-
gether except in cases where manu-
factured cone Of felt or beaver or
velvet is steamed into the proper
shape over a block The original
hat was trimmed with a single quill
placed fiat against the crown at the
back. The whole affair is chic if eX-
treme, but becoming to only certain
types. 1t is full of snap and crisp
style, but impossible for many wear
ers.
For those who cannot wear this
jaunty not to mention somewhat
rakish) little bit of new millinery any
number of new designs have been
and are being invented. One Of them
The Prince George's enquirer and southern Maryland advertiser. (Upper Marlborough, Md.) 1882-1925, 1911-02-03

is shown here. 1t is a crusher hat OF
black velvet, the brim lined with
white satin and edged with heavy
satin-covered wire-the only wire IN
the hat Such a hat, with the brim
dented against the crown and orna-
mented with smart aigrette or st1ff,
fiat, cockade, may be seen at any OF
the cafes, completing very handsome
toilettes.
Odd effects in trimming are sought
for these odd hats, and many of them,
for the street, are untrimmed. They
need finishing touch, however, but 1t
must be just touch. A single skele-
ton plume, in peculiar colorings, or a
long feather from the pheasant tail,
or a narrow, gold quill, are favorites
and illustrate the character of trim
ming which is appropriate.
A soft turban of velvet and fur
with fur buckle, is partly flexible.
There are no wires except in the
brim, which is very cleverly draped
with velvet. This is a sensible hat
for midwinter. With the dark fur

HOW TO CLEAN THE METALS
Use Salt and Broken Egg Shells on
EnameIed Pans and Soda on
Galvanized Baths.

Enameled pans should be stepped,
the SCOT removed and then washed
with hot water, any burned parts be,
ing removed by rubbing them with
coarse flannel dipped in salt and
broken egg shells. Then rinse well
and dry both inside and out.
Galvanized baths and the like
should be rinsed out with hot water
and soda directly after they are used
To clean them thoroughly scrub well
with soap and water, to which soda
has been added; dry and then rub
with a piece of house flannel dipped
first in paraff1n and then in silver
sand or powdered bath brick until
bright. Rinse first in hot and then IN
cold water and allow to dry In
draft in order to remove the smell
of the parafin.
Tin can be cleaned with whiting
mixed to a stiff paste with water OF
ammonia, but all the powder must
be brushed off when dry. Another
method is to slice down thtnly foul
ounces of yellow soap and pour over
one quart of cold water. Allow this
to stand for day in order to dissolve
Then add pound Of the best whit
ing, bring 1t all to a boiling point
Keeping it we'll stirred, so as to insure
all being properly mixed; then leave
it until cold, when two ounces O
spirits of hartshorn are added. Keel
this mixture in tightly corked bot
ties
Wash zinc thoroughly with warn
water. After rubbing 1t dry rub again
with cloth dipped in either para1nl
or turpentine.

CHAPTER XII.

l hurried round to that part of the
castle, followed more mechanically
than inQuisitively by Terhune. and saw
on the stoop under the port-cochere,
through the wtde-open doors, slight
young fellow of about Arch's build,
with a dark, anxious face, just relin-
gushing long duster to his chauf-
feur. But even before l had perceived
who it was, my eyes wandered back
of him and took in the automobile he'd
just stepped from, with vague sense
OF having seen it somewhere before.
But it's owner surprised me more, for 1t
was Murray Brancepeth-of all people!
What in thunder brought him here?"
l wondered. l hadn't seen him in a
year of Sundays!
Hello, Vincent" he cried, on see-
ing us. "And old Terhune, too!" And
he caught our hands in large, exuber-
ant grip. Too exuberant, l could see
Terhune thought, for he was frowning,
and l must say felt inclined to resent
Brancepeth's familiarity, myself, for
had never known the fellow we'll, when
he followed his handshake by a great
slap on my shoulder. But by his next
words it was explained and excused in
the same moment, as were many other
things that had happened lately.
where's Agatha First?" he cried.
Its all right now! Miss Simplin has
eloped and we can get married"
An enlgmatical speech enough, I'll
admit, and, of course, don't mean to
say that it alone was the means of en-
tightening Terhune and myself as to
the new turn this rather complicated
and stubborn affair Of his aunt's prop
erty had taken.
1t was only after a number of ques-
tions had been asked and answered
that we understood him. When it ap-
peared that he, Brancepeth, had been
in love with Miss Endicott and she
with him ever since the first Castle
Wyckhoff houseparty, but that there
was an obstacle to their marriage
which prevented their acknowledging
their attachment, which obstacle con-
sisted of the inexorable determination
of Brancepeth's sole relative,
wealthy uncle that he should marry
certain Miss Simplin, an heiress her
self, and neighbor Of his uncle's.

Rraised Beef.

A good sized iron or agate ware
kettle, with fitted cover is necessar!
for braised beef. Select 4 or 5 pounds
of the bottom of the round; cut into
small tubes one cup each of turnip
carrot and onion. Put into Kettle
and cover with a can of tomato soup;
fill the emptied can twice with water
and add; wipe meat; sprinkle witt
salt and pepper and dredge WIFI
flour; place meat on bed OF vege
tables and cook about four hours
turning and basting occasionally; L
may be necessary to add more water;
as there should be a little over g
pint when cooked.
When done strain off vegetables
and serve around meat on the plat
ter; thicken gravy with flour and
pour over meat or serve separately
as preferred.

But to my establishment, Terhune,
whom had always laughingly ac-
cused, of being mercenary beggar,
when it came to a question of marry
ing, did not take my sporting sugges-
tion at all well.
Great heaven, Vincent" he eX-
claimed, in low, tense tone, and
turned on me almost as If insulted by
the idea, cant you let me alone?
What do you suppose l want with my
aunt's beastly property if l have to get
along without the girl?"
And by the way he said it l saw at
once that there was only one girl for
him, and that when it came to the
point he found, in spite of all his old
caution and calculating spirit, that
love was the only thing in the world
that counted, after all.
Great Scotland!' l thought to my
self, as | grasp d the true inwardness
of this fact. III the old boy isn't actu-
ally in love! | uidnt think he had it
in him!" The idea occurring to me

time to consider that there might be
sentimental side to the affair. 1t had
all seemed so much like a game to me.
it had been such a jolly lark to find
myself mixed up in an affair of such an
unusual description, and Arch had so
| long accustomed me to his mercenary
attitude toward life, that | had found
myself quite readily talking and advfs-
ing in a manner that | would not have

the principal in the affair instead Of

IT is A MISTAKE

Many have the idea that anything
will sell if advertised strong enough.
This is a great mistake. True,
few sales might be made by advertis-
ing an absolutely worthless article
but it is only the article that is
bought again and again that pays.
An example of the big success OF
worthy article is the enormous sale
that has grown up for Cascarets
Candy Cathartic. This wonderful rec
ord is the result of great merit sue
cessfully made known through per-
sistent advertising and the mouth-to-
mouth recommendation given Cas-
carets by it's friends and users.
Like all great successes, trade pi-
rates prey on the unsuspecting pub
lie, by marketing fake tablets similar
in appearance to Cascarets. Care
should always be exercised in pur-
chasing we'll advertised goods, espe-
cially an article that has national
sale like Cascarets. Do not allow
substitute to be palmed off on you.

Brancepeth had not the faintest in.
tention of marrying the lady of his un,
cle's choice, or anyone other than the
lady of his own, but was still unable
openly to disregard that uncle's wishes,
having been entirely dependent upon
him all his life. The young lady in
question, Miss Simplin, had now de-
cided matters for him by eloping with
poor young squire, in spite of taci;
agree mt with her father that she
would consider favorably the suit OF
young Murray. And by thus boldly .
curing her own happiness the young
lady had at the same time opened the
way for that of Brancepeth, deed for
which | thought, when | heard the tale,
she deserved the commendation of the
community | like good sport But
this opinion of mine in regard to Miss
A--mplin's escapade did not apparently
iibe with that of Brancepeths uncle,
for, as our visitor proceeded with his
tale, we learned that he was indeed
so enraged by the very act which so
delighted us all that when his nephew,
embOldened by the tidings of the
e'opement, confided to him his attach
ment for Miss Endicott, his aggrieved
relative had seized with enthusiasm
the chance of proving to the scornful
and fugitive heiress that she was un-
regretted. He only awaited the ap-
pearance of Agatha First, it seemed, to
take her to his arms and enshrine her
brows with a diamond tiara that was to
ftaunt defiance and triumph before the
jealous eyes of the poor squire's wife
whenever the two might meet
This exciting crisis in Brancepeth's
romance having developed only that
morning, 1t was friend Murray to his
machine and on his way to Castle
| Wyckhoff without loss of time, and we
were not at all surprised when he
boasted that he had covered the dis
tance between his uncle's place at the
other end of the county and Wyckhoff
castle in a little less than an hour We
had just succeeded in grasping these
details of our friends love affair,
though he had not given them In full,
as | have, but had rather sketched the
story generally and rapidly, when
Dearest appeared upon the scene and
the whole wonderful tale had to be
told again.
