Holland has invaded Palmas island.
a part OF the United States posses
sions in the Philippines. This is seri-

it was ours, but since they have
gone as far as they have they should
be forced to take the rest of the ISL

make good the expression, beating

For Self and Wife
BY IZOLA FORESTER
Copyright. 1871 by Associated Literary Press)

I'm positive it's Ralph" Vera
leaned forward in her steamer chair
to get good look at the man who
had Just passed. "He has marched
around about 40 times so far this
morning, Phil, and | do wish you'd
find out for me-"
Il didn't know you were so keen
on digging up Ralph" Phil's tone
was a mere grunt of disgust, from
the depths of his rug. Didn't that
die out at Pinehurst last fall?"
Didn't what die out?" Vera
looked meditatively and innocently
out to sea.
Weren't you engaged?"
mot exactly"
Not exactly? Upon my word, Vera,
you girls get on my nerves. You
think loves polo game. When a
chap comes a cropper, you lift your
eyebrows, and say it's too bad he
can't play right. You know Ralph
was awfully cut up after you left,
and-when did you see him last?"
Vera rose, smiling mysteriously.
"Phil, it wouldn't be right for me
to tell you. It's bad enough to en-
courage those-er-polo players, but
it's worse to give description of
how they took the tumble. Go and
find out from the ships list if 1t is
Ralph: there's dear. And If it is,
look him up, and be nice"
Most unwillingly Phil obeyed in
structions. There was over six years
between Vera and himself and an
elder sister has rights which even a
fellow of eighteen has to recognize.
Carefully he went over the list of first
cabin passengers, but found no such
name as Ralph Maynard.
He's in stateroom D. promenade
deck, because | asked a steward, =
Phil protested who's got that room
can you tell?''
Somerset Lane, for self and wife,
the purser told him. II think they're
just married, and on their honey
moon"
81 don't believe it, Vera said
calmly, when Phil brought back the
news. 1T is Ralph. know. now,
The Washburn times. [volume] (Washburn, Wis.) 1896-1976, 1911-06-22

because | bowed to him as he went
by the forty-irst time, while you
were gone, and he knew me. Why
should he ship under an assumed
name?"
Maybe it's secret marriage"
suggested Philip archly. Hes a wise
old dog, anyway"
"He is not, Phil. If ever there was
an open-and-above-b board, straightfor-
ward boy, it's Ralph Maynard. Did it
give the wife's name?"
Phil shook his head
"Just said for self and wife,"
But where's the wife? If he were
on his honeymoon, would he be tramp
ing the deck madly hour after hour?"
Maybe she's seasick," Phil sug-
gested brightly. Il saw him talking
to that old chap from Virginia in the
smoker this morning, so on the way
back up the companionway | ran into
him and asked if he knew Somerset
Lane. He said he did, that he was
bully young chap, and it was a shame
his wife was SO delicate that she had
to keep to her stateroom all through
the passage over
'Vera's face was a study. She
frowned and pursed her pretty lips
tensely. Some way, she could not
picture Ralph's wife at ALL She could
only remember the last night at Pine
hurst 1t had been in September, and
the Carolina beach looked wonderful
ly fair in the rich, golden moonlight.
Hatless, they had mounted horses and
gone for canter at low tide along the
wet sands, far, far out, to what they
called Lovers Leap. 1t was jutting
headland of rock that cut off the
beach. And it was here that Ralph
had taken his chance with Fate. She
could see him still, bending toward

The Beautiful and the Useful Must
Be Developed to Make
Mankind Perfect.

Mankind can only be made by all
men, the world by all its powers to-
gether. Often enough they war
among themselves, but even as they
try to destroy each other, nature
holds them together and brings them
forth again. From the first animal
impulse towards construction up to
the highest exercise of intellectual
art, from the laughter and shouts of
childhood up to the glorious utterance
of the orator and the singer, from the
first scuffies of boyhood up to the
huge ornaments by which nations are
lost and won, from the faintest kindli-
ness and the most transitory affection
up to the most burning passion and
the deepest bond; from the merest
sensation of the tangible present up
to the most mysterious presentiments
and hopes for the furtl1est spiritual
future, all this. and far more, lies Ia

The New Jabots.

With the laying aside of furs new
style of jabot was demanded for wear
with the single-breasted coats of this
seasons fashion. For this purpose the
graduated side frill is the favorite.
Next comes the cascade just long
enough to fill the, neck opening of the
coat. A dainty touch of embroidery
in pastel shades is sometimes added
to the new neckwear with good effect.
The materials used in making Dutch
collars, side frills, fancy stocks and
jabots are white batiste, net, marqut
settle, fine lace and beads.

SILENCE THAT WAS WASTED
Aunt Melissa Supremacy Indifferent to
Fact That Pa Had for Days
Been in a duff"

Aunt Melissa Spigott was such an
exceedingly energetic talker that the
youngsters of the family used to sup
pose that her tongue must be copper
toed, because it never wore out. Uncle
Silas, on the other hand, was as eco
nomical of words as a marketman Is
of early Strawberries.
The too free exercising of this un-
ruly member of Aunt Melissa's on
one occasion, gave Uncle Silas serious
offense, which he manifested by a
severe silence lasting for several days.
At the end of that period one of the
older daughters approached her
mother upon the subject with the re-
mark, ma, seems like you ought to
make up with pa by now"
Make up with pal" exclaimed
Aunt Melissa, in great establishment.
Make up what?'
why" returned the daughter,
don't you know poor pas feeling
bad yet? He's still huffing."
Huntington the lands sake! How
longs he been a-huffing?"
Ever since you came down on him
SO hard about wasting sugar by not
stirring his coffee; that's three days
ago."
"Why, you don't tell me, jamie
Maud" Aunt Melissa looked amazed.

three days, and never mistrusted a
thing of iti"-Youth's Companion.

GOOD USE FOR EXTRA SCARFS
May Be Made into Blouse by Any
One at All Clever With
the Needle

If you have an extra scarf In the
Paisley, Dresden or Partisan design
and want to have a blouse to match
the scarf which you wish to retain, for
scarfs still have wide fashion, the idea
of turning the extra one into a blouse
is one you can snatch up and put
to good use
Scarfs, muff1ers and kerchiefs of
these silky crepe materials are easily
cut up and made into neat and becom-
ing blouses by the home needlework-
er who takes advantage of the limo
walton.
Almost invariably the middle pos
sesses a figure design, while the bor-
der is also composed of figures with
band of white or light color between
these two figured portions. Make it
point to use these strips of mate
rial for the lower part of the blouse
or the inside of the sleeves, and in
thus utilizing the plain strip a boz
lero effect is secured.
One must choose for oneself ac-
cording to the largeness of design
whether to set in the figured parts
lengthwise or crosswise, the length
wise effect being assumed generally
only when the figure is very large.
These with smaller figures can so
well be arranged in series of cross
wise bars that it would hardly be be-
coming in the heightened effect.
TheRe crepe scarf waists are draped
under sheer yelling, to which they
adapt themselves readily without any
nerve Earring aspect that attend some
of the innovations that are executed In
such an off-hand manner.

Strange Children.

George Bancroft, the historian,
used to relate with gusto joke that
he caught while trotting to school
along Massachusetts, country road.
1t was about old Levi Lincoln, says
Percy III. Epler in Master Minds at
the Commonwealth Heart"
The old gentleman was nearly
blind. A flock of geese was being
driven gobbling up Lincoln street.
Leaning far out of the carriage, the
fine old aristocrat, thinking they were
children, threw out handful of pen
MES, graciously exclaiming:
God bless you, my children!"
