As a change from the Oriental gong
and tine one composed of pipes. there Is
the barrel gong. This is made Of brass
in the form OF a small barrel and when
struck with the felt hammer enlits a
deep, rich sound, much like bell. Each
end is tuned to a different pitch. while
a round disk of brass set in the top
sends forth still another sound.

Do Not Throw Rice.

So many painful accidents have oc-
CURED from this time-worn custom that
one cannot speak too strongly against
its use.
In its place use ccnfetti-the gay little
colored bits of paper that can do no
harm and surely add just as much JOY
and hilarity to the occasion.

WOMAN'S PHILOSOPHY
ABOUT OTHER WOMEN

About the only time a woman is
speeches. with establishment IS when a
man gives her his seat IN a crowded car.
A girl always feels sorry for fellow
who gets engaged to some other CIR!
when he might have had her.
So long as men remain fools women
win remain fiirts.
woman's aim is generally mighty
poor even when she throws herself at a
man.
Only a foolish woman angles for COM
pliments. The wise one depends more
on curves.
A woman seldom falls in love with a
man unless she feels that he needs a
little reforming.
1t is hard to conceive that women were
ever really happy before the looking
glass was invented.
Love is never blind to a big bank &C

FAVORED MATERIALS
THE SHOPS SHOW

Smooth materials are verp much in IA
vor, though some rough are also seen.
In general. a loose rather than a strictly
rough weave is favored in this case.
Fine serges are seen everywhere, both
IN fine twill and in herringbone effects
but particularly the former.
Fancy mixtures. checks, and striped
worsteds are best for the in-between sea-
son of early spring
Satin. either the real article or the
cloth-backed variety, is to be really the
rage for the dressier skirts and suits
and surah and taffeta will run 1t a close
second. A very little velvet will be seen
also.
Linen and pique will, as usual, be in
order for summer. with rep for the cooler
days. Nothing Is better than a coarse
linen suit for everyday summer wear

In order to take care OF its increas-
ing business and to provide more
comfortable quarters for its employees,
The Detroit Times has reconstructed
and enlarged its building. Its offices
now occupy 10000 square feet OF
space. The exterior OF the building
has been finished In light gray, with
window castings and trimmings In
Pompeiian green.
Many changes have been made In
the interior of the building. The walls
and partitions were removed and steel
beams and metal ceilings substituted.
The editorial rooms are cheerful,
roomy, well-lighted and well-ven-
tilated.
The Times is this week celebrating
its eleventh anniversary. On Monday

CHAPTER XXI.
The Judge Offers a Reward.

The news of Charley Nortons muir

For two or three days bands OF armed
men secured the woods and roads. and
then this activity. quite unproductive
OF any tangible results, ceased, matters
were allowed TO rest with the con-
stituted authorities. namely Mr.. Belts
the sheriff, and his deputies.
No private citizen had shown great
er zeal than Judge Slocum Price One
morning he found under his door a
folded paper:
You talk too much. Shut up. or
you'll go where Norton went"
A few moments later he burst In on
Mr. Saul.

cried, as he tossed the paper on the
clerks desk What do you make OF
