BY IDAH M'GLoNE GIBSON.

Don't dress up your baby If you
take it out for a ride.
Many mothers would find time to
take their babies out doors If they
did not think it was necessary to
fuss them all up in scratchy, starchy,
clothes. The best warm weather gar
ment for a baby Is made Of yerv
lightweight outing flannel, which
grows softer with every washing.
Make up a dozen of these with no
trimming and put one on clean every
night and morning. You will find
that the-laundering of these little slips
is much less trouble than where more
clothes are used and not changed so
often.
Never use a diaper after it is
once wet. Wash and dry thoroughly.

Some OF the newest dresses for mid.

net and colored batiste. The sleeves
and under-arm sections of the waist

portion of the skirt. Embroidered
panels of light blue batiste in English

waist yoke to the bottom edge of the
skirt.

In white linen floss.

NEGLIGEES OF CHINA SILK
Soft, Reclining Garments for the Hours
When Ceremony Is for the Time
Forgotten.

Pale tinted china silk kimonos en-
broidered in self tones are charming
and soft, for they, like SO many of the
seasons garments. are made OF the
thinnest OF thin china silk. These have
a collar which turns back fiat and
very short sleeves, the back of the
robe is plain, and the entire garment
Is unlined. In pink they suggest
spring blossoms.
In this very thin china silk may also
be purchased dainty waists made sail
or fashion. the collar, tie and pocket
are of striped gray and white china
silk. At about the same price come
plain white china silk waists with high
collars. Marquisette waists for sep
arate blouse wear are still very high

and others Dutch neck. Much ClIny
lace is to be seen In the wash shirt
waists of inexpensive mode. These
also come both Dutch neck and

The single ostrich feather, uncurled

very cleverly on the smartest of mid

upturned brim is covered on the upper

color like that of the straw. Pompa-
dour chiffon, by the way, is highly
favored for this purpose and is useful
where one wishes to remodel a straw
hat that is soiled. A single long plume
with unusual width of flue is mounted
at the right side and stands almost

The old maid stared at the bachelor
as II she were trying to see the boy

time had modelled on his face. And
then she was girl again. and her
voice chimed as she cried:

She gave him her hand-both her
hands, and he smothered them In one
big paw and laid the other on for

sucking dove:

They gossiped across the chasm OF
of years about people and things, and
knew nothing OF the excitement so
close to them, saw nothing or Chicago
slipping back into the distance. with

windows like hurled torches.

recurring to old emotions.

meeting jealousy. "Oh, he entered

Ogden, Utah"
Il always knew he'd never amount

his old rival. Then he started with
a new twinge: You bound for Ogden,

at the new sensation OF making q man

CHAPTER X-(continued).

He sank into the seat opposite
Marjorie, who gave him one terrihed
glance, and burst into fresh sobs:
"Oh-oh-boo-hoo- so unhap-
happy"
Perhaps Mrs. Temple was a little
miffed at the couple that had led her
astray and opened her own honey
moon with a wanton fib. In any case.
the best consolation she could offer
Marjorie was a perfunctory pat. and a
cynicism:
There, there, dear! You don't
know what real unhappiness Is yet.
Wait till you've been married a
while"
And then she noted a startling lack
of completeness In the brides hand.
"Why-my dear!-where's your
wedding ring?"
With what he considered great
presence of mind. Mallory explained:
TIT slipped off-I-I picked it up.
I have it here" And he took the
little gold band from his waistcoat
and tried to jam it on Marjories right
thumb.
Not on the thumb" Mrs. Temple
cried Don't you know?"
you see, it's my first marriage"
You poor boy-this finger." And
Mrs Temple, raising Marjorie's limp
hand. selected the proper digit. and
held it forward, while Mallory pressed
the fatal circlet home.
And then Mrs. Temple, having COM
pleted their installation as man and
wife, utterly confounded their con-
fusion by her final effort at comfort:
well, my dears, I'll go back to my
seat. and leave you alone with your
dear husband"
My dear what?" Marjorie mumbled
namely, and began to sniffie again.
Whereupon Mrs. Temple resigned her
to Mallory, and consigned her to fate
with consoling platitude:
Cheer up, my dear, you'll be all
right in the morning"
Marjorie and Mallory's eyes met in
one wild clash, and then both stared
into the window. and did not notice
that the shades were down.

people in the seat on the other side
OF them we're engaged In a little
drama OF their own.
Ira Lathrop, known to all who knew
him as a woman-hating snapping-tur-
tie, was so busily engaged trying to
drag the farthest invading rice grains
out of the back OF his neck, that he
was late in realizing his whereabouts.
When he raised his head, he found
that he had crowded into a seat with
an uncomfortable looking woman, who
crowded against the window with old
maidenly timidity.
He felt some apology to be neces-
sary, and he snarled Disgusting
things, these weddingsi" After he
heard this, 1t did not sound entirely
felicitous. so he grudgingly ventured
Excuse me-you married ?"

bachelors attention. He stared at her
so fiercely that she looked about for
a way to escape. Then a curlously
anxious. almost hungry, look soft
ened his leonine jowls into a boyish
eagerness, and his growl became a
sort of gruff purr:
Say, you look something like an
old swectheart-er-frien mine.
Were you ever In Brattleboro, vt.?'
A flush warmed her cheek. and a
sense OF home warmed her prim
speech, as she confessed:

THAT cONSOLlNG CUP OF TEA
Traveller Is Wise Who Provides Her
self With Materials for Making the
Cheering Beverage.

In travelling both at home and
abroad, there is great comfort in your
own cup of tea. On the steamer, par
ticularly, you miss your own brand;
and the well-versed traveller who is
wise in the lore of creature comforts
never wanders far from home without
her tea caddy. 1t adds greatly to her
popularity, too. "Oh, If l only had a
good cup of tea" is the general cry
on shipboard, and then this far-sight-
ed woman produces the cheering
leaves, and she becomes the center of
attraction, and has her little coterie
every afternoon. There are some who
prefer it for the morning meal. too, in
stead of the usual mediocre coffee with
condensed milk.
For this poignant need Of the travel
er, a charming little tea box of ma
hogany containing a small silver tea
caddy and little tea ball, reproducing
in miniature tea kettle, has been put
upon the market. 1t is very simple in
arrangement, compact, and easy to
pack and makes a really practical
gift.
There are many places on the con-
tinent where good tea is a real luxury,
and many an unsophisticated Amer
lean is astonished when she pays her
bill for what she considers a very
simple repast. She finds that her cup
of tea costs more than very elabo-
rate dessert, and so 1t is n great econ
omy as well as comfort to carry your
own tea with you.

CHAPTER XII.
The Needle In the Haystack.


The almost-married couple sat long
in mutual terror and a common par
alysis OF ingenuity. Marjorie, for lack
of anything better to do, was absent
mindedly twisting Snoozleum's ears,
while he, that pocket abridgment OF a
dog. in a we'll meaning effort to d.
vert her from her evident grief, made
a great pretense of ferocity, growing
and threatening to bite her fingers
off. The new ring attracted his spe-
cial jealousy. He was growing dis
couraged at the ill-success OF his i'm
personation OF a wolf, and detected
at being so crassly ignored, when he
suddenly became, in his turn, center
of interest.
Marjorie was awakened from her
trance OF hamilton by the porter's
voice. His plantation voice was or
dinarily as thick and sweet as his own
New Orleans sorghum. but now II had
a bitterness that curdled the blood:
"'Scuse me, but how did you-all git
that theah dog in this heah cah?"
"Snoozleums Is always with me"
said Marjorie briskly, as If that set
tied 1t, and turned for confirmation
TO the dog himself. aren't you,
SnooZleums?"
Well" the porter frawled. trying
to be gracious with his great power.
the rules don't low no live stock In
the sleepin' cars, 'ceptin' humans"
Marjorie rewarded his condescen-
sion with a blunt: "Snoozleums Is
more human than you are"
Il p'sume he Is" the porter ad-
mitted, but he can't make up berths.
Anyway. the rules says dogs goes
with the baggage"
Marjorie swept rules aside with a
defiant: 81 don't care. won't be
separated from my Snoozleums."
She looked to Mallory for support.
but he was too sorely troubled with
greater anxieties to be capable OF any
action.
The porter tried persuasion: You

THE brute!"
"Oh, yassum, he is a regular brute.
he Just loves to hear IN splosh when

Noting the SILVER that shook the
girl, the porter offered a bit of con-
ISOLATION:
Better femme have the pore little
thing up In the baggage cab. He'll be
in charge of lovely baggage-smash-

Are you sure he's nice MANI"
"Oh. yassum, he's death on trunks.

sobbed. Poor little Snoozleums! Can

Marjorie's tears were splashing on
the puzzled dog, who nestled close.

The porter was growing desperate.
