STORY OF JAPANESE GOWNS
Origin of Garments Worn In tho
Island Empire.

Nearly every woman nowadays
cherishes Japanese gown for house
wear without realizing how interest
ing garment 1t is. The sleeves them
selves have a curious history. From
the middle Of the sixteenth century
they began to increase in length. and,
especially those for young ladies, have
extended till now they are from three
to four feet. This style, known as
furisode, became very fashionable.
The width of the obi, or sash, has
also varied, at first from two and a
half to three and half inches, and
to six, seven, eight and nine inches.
1t is interesting to note that our
own new fashions In sleeves and
sashes originated among the common
people of Japan, and from them were
finally adopted by the upper classes.
The young ladies of the Samuri class
were the first to follow the popular
styles in this respect, and the higher
classes began to follow suit, until now
these fashions prevail everywhere.
1t is only from about the middle of
the seventh century that the women
of the lower classes began to wear
the long haori, or overcoat, at present
so common among all classes of both
sexes. This garment was originally
duster worn by men to protect their
clothes WHEN outdoors, and was then
called dofuku, or travelling coat.
Finally they came to be worn in
doors, and the women adopted the
garment. The upper classes in time
followed the same custom, and now
the haori is an indispensable part Of
the clothing to be worn on formal oc-
casions, even in summer.

cartridges fitting the revolver, but no
ammunition was discovered adapted
to the sawed-off gun, which Neb had
already appropriated, and was drag

each black corner In anxious search.
The two were still busily employed at
this, when to their ears. through the
stiffness of the night, there came the
unexpected noise of splashing In the
water without, and then the sound OF
horse stumbling as he struck the
bank. Quick as a fash Keith closed
the intervening door, extlnguished the
dim flame of the candle, and grasping
the startled negro's arm, hushed him
into silence.
Crouching close behind the door.

streamed, yielding slight view Of the

SYNOPSIS.

Jack Keith, a Virginian. now bor-
der piainsman, is riding along the santa
Fe trail on the lookout for roaming war
parties of savages. He notices camp

reaches the wagon the raiders have mass

the victims finding papers and a locket

murder. his accuser being ruffian named

companion in his cell is negro. who
tells him he Is Neb and that he knew the
Keith family back In Virginia. Neb says
one of the murdered men was John
slbley, the other Gen. Willis Waite, for
merly an officer In the Confederate army.
The plainsman and Neb escape from the
cell. and later the two fugitives become
lost In the sand desert. They come upon
a cabin and find its lone occupant to be

UNCLE CAL GOOD REAsoNER
Fired Question at Camp Fire Astron-
omer That Probably Was
Hard to Answer.

"The late George Cary Eggleston
was in the Confederate army" said a
New York editor, "and, as Memorial
day approached, he would narrate at
the Authors club many a memory Of
war times.
II liked to hear his yarns about
the child-like minds Of slaves. He
once told me, for example. about q
grizzled slave named Uncle Cal. body
servant to his colonel.
"As Eggleston sat before a camp
fire one coolish autumn evening,
watching Uncle Cal mend the colo
nel's coat, the crimson and gold glory
of the autumn sunset turned the talk
to astronomy. and Eggleston said;
"'You see. Uncle Cal, the world Is
round. like an apple, and 1t goes
round. too-rOund and round it goes
all the time
Hits round an hit goes round.
said Uncle Cal, skeptically. But what
| want to know is, what holds 1t up?'
"Why, you see. Uncle Cal. said
Eggleston, the world goes round the
sun, and the sun holds it up-by at
traction. you know
Uncle Ctl glanced from his coat
mending to Eggleston with a patron
izing smile.
Honey he said. 'Ah reckon 20

rect, what would keep de world up
when the sun went DOWN. Answer

something serious must have happen
ed, or he would have been here before
this. Do you-do you suppose there
Is anything wrong?"
Keith did not smile nor change
posture. The more he delved into the
matter, the more serious he felt the
situation to be. He knew all those
ranches lying south on the Canadian,
and was aware that this was no out
station. No cattle ever came across
that sandy desert unless driven by
rustlers, and no honest purpose could
account for this isolated hut. There
had been frequent robberies along the
trail. and he had overheard tales Of
mysterious disappearances In both
Larned and Carson City. Could 1t be
that he had now, accidentally, STUN
bled upon the rendezvous of the gang?
He was not man easily startled, but
this thought sent his heart beating.
He knew enough to realize what such
gang would naturally consist Of
deserters, outlaws, rustlers; both In
dians and whites. no doubt. combined
under some desperate leadership. Gaz'
ing into the girls questioning eyes he
could scarcely refrain from blurting
out all he suspected. Yet why should

were already too thoroughly exhaust
