the saint

much but play golf"

Yes; here's Chancellor
st. Peter took it and threw it over
his shoulder, where it rolled away.
For a minute or more he looked
critically at the applicant. then shut
the gate in his face and locked it.
Whats the game?" said the man.
You are no real golfer" said St
Peter You don't even know the
first rule of golf-to keep your eye on
the ball and follow through"

TURN TO LEATHER CUSHIONS
Those of the Motor Have Proven SO
Comfortable that Their Use Is

The comfort. durability, and appear

leather have commenced this style OF
cushion for domestic use, and ladies'
are learning with renewed interest the
arts of enclosing snd cutting out
leather.
II is advisable to obtain one or two
lessons but having done so the art
of decorating leather is not difficult,
and 1t can be applied to many things
as well as to bookbinding-wh which is
one of the most artistic of hobbies.
In cushions there is great admira-
ton for cut-out patterns of leather,
which must be mounted on cloth,
velvet, or suede, either in the same
color. as is usually the case when
the leather is chosen, or in contrast

were to marriage. but the boy from
Montana was the easiest prey that
had come across the beautiful and
unserupulous woman's range He had

worded that If he had spark OF In

turn to the Park She had never been
more lovely than when Dan found her
waiting tor him.
She had ordered tea in her sitting
room. She told him that he looked
frightfully seedy. asked him what he
had been doing and why he had
stopped so long away. and Blair told
her that old Ruggles, his fathers
friend. had run over to see him with
a lot of papers for Dan to read and
sign and closed with smile. telling

Those things are not business,
Dan answered wisely; they are just

She asked him why he had not
brought Ruggles out to Osdene. and
he told her he couldn't have done a
stroke of work with the old boy down
here at the Park.

Next Spring.

AS an indication of the styles Of
footwear that will be in vogue next
spring in Great Britain 1t may be re-

without a fastening:
and whereas at the present time the
whole sole is black, the upper parts
will be colored and the lower parts
remain black as before. with the ex-
ception of the heels. which will be

are lovely except the hard red. which
however, is not fashionable. The soft
