representative of the government a re-
quest that his body might be taken to

then led to the yard of the fort, where
an infantry regiment. a battalion of Chas-

Have you seer the new arrange

1t falls straight from the collar line
in finely pleated folds and is known
in fashionland as the bishop jabot-
One of very fine linen made with an
applied hem. joined at the inner
square of the linen with a very mar
row insertion of baby Irish lace, is
gathered to a five-inch band at the
top. This band slips in underneath
the eollarless neck of the blouse,
allowing the jabot to fall straight TO
the raised waist line. 1t really re-

the everlasting frilled jabot and. is

GIFTS FOR THE INVALID

More than ever before in her life
does the invalid who takes her meals
in solitary state appreciate pretty
table furnishings. If somebody sends
her a miniature tea set in japanese
or Chinese ware it will temporarily
give her more pleasure than the
silver service which is a family heir
loom. But if she has several extra
tea sets she probably has not an
acknowledgements tea caddy Of
Japanese pewter which is perfectly
alright. and she will be fascinated
with a sterling silver pepper-shaker
shaped like a matched cottage with
perforations outlining its rim, and
with a setrling silver pepper-shaker
in fish form, exquisitely carved.
A. really practical gift would be a
German silver egg set, comprising a
plate, salt and pepper shakers, spoon
and cup. The newest cup for retain
ing the heat Of soft boiled eggs after
thev have been broken is of tumbler
shape and has a separate glass liner
for holding the egg. When hot water
is poured between this liner and the
silver outside cup the boiled eggs
are said to retain their heat for at
least ten minutes after having been
broken.

Absent, but Didn't Grow

Dear Miss Doom
/ am one of your steady readers and
thought l would ask your advice in my
case.
| have been going with a young man,
aged 81, for ten months. Three months
ago he went to another large city to
work up q trade. but now has given up
and come back home. Do you think he
had another girl out there? He has been
in town a whole week now and hasn't
come to see me or t~elephoned up since
he has been home. Can l win back his
love? WORRIED.
1t is probable that the young man
became acquainted with girls in the
other city. and SO long as he is not
engaged to you he has fright to go
with another girl If he wishes. He
may not have come to see you be-
cause he is a little ashamed for hav-
ing failed in his venture. Then, too.
he may have become tired of your
friendship. You cannot win back his
love If he is tired of you. Just wail
and see if he will come around and
he pleasant to him If he does. If
you should meet him anywhere, greet
him pleasantly.
Meantime don't drop your other boy
friends because you hope to win this
one back. $
