Summary of Points About the Styles

Always in Mind.

To sum up this seasons new mil
linery features, we want to remember
that the head sizes are large; that. the
hats set well dowL on the head; that
the crowns are moderately high; that
the tailored hats are small, the dress
hats large; that everywhere there is
irregularity of brim and crown; and
that the smartest hats have but lit
tie trimming and are in combination
effect
A buckle, for example, covered with
fur will give smart touch to vel
vet or satin hat and just think how
little fur is needed. A few scraps of
satin can be shaped into wings and fin
ished with an embroidery stitch, and
thus make new style trimming for

idea of having the crown and brim of
the hat of contrasting materials is
helpful to the woman who wishes to
remodel the hat she wore last year.

Coe,7,,o.z Ipx he sosa. A,eaeuL Co-,e@ny

Uncle Bob told me Mr.. Mahatfy
got hurt in duel, grandfather? said
Hannibal.
He was as inexperienced as
child in the use of firearms, and he
had to deal with scoundrels who had
neither mercy nor generous feeling
but his courage was magnificent"
Presently Hannibal was deep in his
account of those adventures he had
shared with Miss Betty.
And Miss Malroy-where is she
now?" asked the judge, in the first
pause of the boys narrative.
She's at Mr.. Bowen's house. Mr.
Darlington and Mr.. Cavendish are
here too. Mrs. Cavendish stayed
down yonder at the Bates plantation.
Grandfather, it were Captain Murreli
who had me stole-do you reckon he
was going to take me back to Mr..
Bladen?"
Il will see Miss Malroy in the
morning. We must combine-our in
terests are identical. There should
be hemp in this for more than one
scoundrel! | can see now how GRIM
inal my disinclination to push myself
to the front has been!" said the judge,
with conviction. Never again will
shrink from what know to be pub
lie duty"
A little later they went downstairs,
where the Judge had Yancy make up
bed for himself and Hannibal on
the floor. He would watch alone be-
side Mahaffy, he was certain this
would have been the dead mans wish;
then he said good night and mounted
heavily to the floor above to resume
his vigil and his musings.

FAD FOR MASCOT JEWELRY
One of the Prettiest Novelties That
Has Been Put Forward for
Many Seasons.

She who has money to afford novel
ties should go in for mascot jewelry.
Never has it been more fascinating.
Even If you are not superstitious, you
are not above luck charm of some
sort
A safety pin brooch, with stone
in the center, has attached to it by
a thin short chain, lucky tortoise
in gold or enamel. The mascot can
be further enhanced by using ones
birth stone.
A motor bracelet of gold or silver
wire can have attached to it various
lucky charms, as the lucky finger in
ivory, lucky penny, a tiny rabbit S
foot, and horseshoe, and minute
blue bird for happiness as we'll as
safety. Sometimes these lucky pieces
are worn around the neck on a fine
fold chain, or they form an interest
ing pendant for the watch fob.
Great favorites are the lucky pig
and lucky bear charm, while a novel
ty for the cat lover is small bowl Of
gold chain, or they form an interest
fish in 1t and a watchful cat at one
side
A fascinating love charm which
comes in circular or heart-shape has
on it a plus and minus sign with
Aujourdhui above the former and GU
HER beneath it, while beneath the
minus sign is Que Demain, which
translated means that the donors love
shall daily be more than yesterday

Oxford EYEGLASSES.

II you do not wear your eyeglasses
all the time try the new ones that fold
like a lorgnette and are worn on
ribbon or chain around the neck. They
are called Oxford glasses.
These glasses are large round ones
and are good for the eyes. They
have a wide, folding gold nosepiecs
with a patent, firm catch and a mar
row gold rim. When closed they look
like a monocle. A black ribbon, with
gold or jeweled slides, is very fash
ionable.

copies of his latest novel. which was
priced at five shillings, ordering that
the books be charged to his account.
This was done. With the volumes
under his arm he visited a second
hand book dealer in the neighbor-
hood and, as the books were perfect
ly new, he managed to sell the six
of them for ten shillings, with which
sum he had a rattling good dinner
and an evening at the theater.

whether or not he is going to be able

Yancy and Hannibal had dressed by
this time, and the Judge led the way
from the house. The Scratch Hitler

the judge was breathing deep.

Morrow and the public prosecutor
have left town. and as you see, Muir

A Crisis at the Courthouse.

Just at daybreak Yancy was reused
by the pressure of hand on his
shoulder, and opening his eyes saw
that the judge was bending over him.
''Dress!" he said briefly. There's
every prospect of trouble-get your
rife and come with mel"
Yancy noted that this prospect of
trouble seemed to afford the judge a
pleasurable sensation; indeed, he had
quite lost his former air of somber
and suppressed melancholy.
Il let you sleep, thinking you need
ed the rest" the judge went on. But
ever since midnight we've been on the
verge of riot and possible bloodshed.
They've arrested John Murreii-it's
claimed he's planned a servile rebel
lion! A man named Hues, who had
wormed his way into his confidence,
made the arrest. He carried Murrell
into Memphis, but the local magis-

clined to have anything to do with

will tell you so himself" replies her
father, and she learns that she is TO
tell the union officer who will enter
the house shortly, that her father was
there, but has left by the road that
goes past the blackberry bushes and
