PLEDGE POLICIES FOR LOANS
Imprudcnt Act That Really Means
Man Is Borrowing From His
Widow.

Many men, pressed for money, go
to the life insurance company, de-
post their policy as security and bor-
row as much as the company Is will
ing 10 lend. That the practice is COM
mon is proved by the fact that most
companies have loaned from fourth
to a third Of the aggregate face value
of their policies in this way. very
few of these loans" says the annual
report Of the Connecticut Mutual-and
this company's experience is typical
"are ever repaid to the company. The
money are swallowed up
in business enterprises, In specula-
ton and the total result
means embarrassment and distress In
a great many cases. and poverty IN
the place of competence. when the
claims mature. and there Is nothing
left above the loans but mere mar
gin in cash on the policies for the
protection of families or estates"
Men who borrow on their policies are
taking away protection from their
families. 1t ought not to be dome

cHILD's PUMPS FOR DANCING
New Idea Has Many Points OF Inn
portance That Are Well Worth
Consideration.

A party of young women who were
training to dance in private theatricala
were told by their instructress to buy
children's patent leather dancing
pumps, with rounded toes, low heels
and narrow strap over the instep.
They rather begrudged the money
as they thought the pumps were for
one occasion only. So comfortable
did they prove that every one Of those
girls will wear nothing else around
the house in the evening. It saves
their handsomerl slippers and the low
heels are restful to the back and In
cidentally to nerves.
For very tall GIRL these pumps
are especially suitable as the lowness
of the heels reduce her height and
bring her into more normal stature.

she had come to Littleton They
she could see far; wide horizons, the
rise and fall of ranges, great stretches
of country flooded with light. She
seemed above it all. 1t was the land
of the sky.
BY and by, twilight blotted out the
landscape, and made the window pane
an opaque mirror, and in it she could
see her own face, and her prim little
hat, which revealed her forehead with
its shadoWing sweep of brown hair.
Now that she had time. to look about
her, she saw that the hats of other
women were dragged down over their
eyes and she saw her dainty three
buttoned kid glove, smooth over her
slender wrist, should have been a
mannish affair of dogskin, with one
big button. Still she thought, her
clothes were good and ladylike she
was sure of that and at least her chin
did not sag.
And then she caught herself up with
sudden swift remorse. How could she
think OF such things? How could she
think OF anything on such sad, hur-
ried. sorrowful journey as this-but OF
the brother she was going to see?
They had drifted apart-that was
all. He had gone west, and had writ
tan less and less often, and at last not
at all. She had renamed behind and
taught school until her health broke
down. Then she made her bayonet
charge on life with the point OF 2
needle. Long practice had made her
past grand mistress Of the art OF ma
king the best of things.
A new conductor came on brusque

Her Little Journey
BY CALISTA HALSEY
(coDyrirht 1911. By Associated Literary Press)

The bell rang. The engine took a
long breath, the depot went the 9th
er way, and the people standing on
the platform had foolish, left look,
as IL they had been forgotten. Then
the oval of green. with "Littleton''
picked out in white shells, the pride
OF the Village Improvement League,
slid past the window. Familiar hous-
es flew past, each one flying faster
than the last, and as Winnifred Mayne
caught the last futter of the outskirts
of the little town, the train gathered
speed and settled down to the clank
ing rhythm of the rails.
Going to take q little trip, Miss
Winnie--do you good" said the con-
ductor, socially He glanced at her

But Miss Winnie did not explain.
1t was not necessary that all Little
ton should know where she was going

ions with furtive hand. How good
1t was to be going somewhere, to be
out In the world again-to have all
this luxury of swift movement with
out exertion, to get away from two lit
tie rooms. Putting her telescope on
the seat beside her and her umbrella
standing in front of her like senti
mel, lest she forget 1t, she settled
down between the high backed seats
with a sense of privacy. If only she
could keep the seat to herself!
How good 1t was to be going some
where! Even, she remembered, with
a shock, ashamed to be SO glad, even
on such sad, hurried, sorrowful
journey as this. For this was a jour
ney with telegram at one end of it
and dying man at the other. 1t was
a wonderful telegram in that 1t not

FROM HEAVY LINEN SKIRT |
Many and Lasting Doilies Made by
One Clever and Resourceful
Woman.

The housekeeper whose supply OF
doilies is getting low should look over
her summer wardrobe and see II there

making over, but whose material VIII

These can be cut into doilies OF
various sizes. One woman from the
best parts of nine-gored skirt cut
an oval centerpiece, twelve plate
doilies and twelve tumbler doilies to
match. with four smaller ovals for
under dishes. The plate doilles were
nine inches in diameter finished and
the tumbler doilies five inches.
There was no extra cost for stamp
ing. as the edges were finished with
a grouped scallop, the central one be-
ing twice the size of that on each
side. This applied to the dolly brought
two OF the smaller scallops side by
side, with a large one between every
two.
The scallops were padded with
chain-stitch and worked in No. 80 mer-
cerized white cotton, in close but
tonhole stitch.
In the center Of each scallop was
worked an eyelet. that in the big seal
lon being larger than the others. A
second row Of the smaller size was
added. placed opposite the point where
the two small scallops join. This gives
a pyramidal effect alternating with
the larger eyelets. At one side OF
each dolly was embroidered initials IN
small block letters.
This design is easy to copy II one
