TO-DAY we arc showing you
three hats that express the
latest manifestation Of lie
dernier cri" from Paris. The hats
are worn by three charming
French actresses. and are quite
the latest thing from one Of the
smartest of the smart French hat
shops
Mile. Marceue Praince, Of the
Varieties shows US the new idea
called the "Cabriolct Dip and at
the short brimmed side her hat
does resemble the bowler with
down dropping brim worn by the
cabby Of Paris The brlm rolls up
a bit al the right. The model was
bound at the edge with cerise
satin ribbon and the crown Is COW
cred with a checker board made
Of interviewer Cerise and white
satin ribbon. A veil Of soft white
shadow weave adds a suftening
touch to this simple but fetching
model
Pretty little Arlette Dorgere,
Of the Vaudeville Theators, has
covered her soft, fluffy hair with
a scoop shaped hat on bonnet
lines. The circular brim IS form
ed Of white straw, and there Is a
wee soft crown OF pastel hued
satin. which droops down in a
long tassel AT the left shoulder
Caught at the line where straw
and satin meet, and following the
line OF the satin tassel, is a Won
derful long spray Of white Para
disc This Is what the French
call "chapeau du soir." and your
true Parisiennc would never
dream Of wearing IL except in
theater box or at the restaurant,
or for some such fashionable
evening occasion.

hat with rare distinction This
extreme shape is very becoming
to the woman whose wen arrang-
ed hair softeus the contours OF
the long flaring left side At the
back and toward tine right this
wonderful shape of black milan
frames miladys face most allur-
ingly. A magnificent spray of
white paradise is caught at the
extreme point of the heightened
hrim and falls toward front and
back in a soft cascade.

What could ne do about it? Cain
asked himself. What chance would
he have with this backwoodsman If he
attempted to evict him, especially with
a damaged hand? The thoughts of
his hand instantly put is mind back
to the encounter with Gordon Kelly.
And thinking of Gordon Kelly sud-
denly put another idea in his head.
His face wrinkled into what he in
tended for a smile.
Il beg your pardon, stranger" he
said in his pleasantest manner, II

that It puts me out of sorts. You

there's lot of other stuff in the

to eat and maybe a little to drink.

me in a drink"
Thus Modified, the stranger re-
marked that he didn't care if he did.
Cain ordered George to fetch a table,
two chairs, bottle Of whisky, some
glasses and fresh water.
Il call that right good stuff" re-
marked Cain when they had sampled
the contents of the bottle. You
don't get any like 1t in this part Of
the country, do you?"
Cain was treading on dangerous
ground, if he had only known it. The
stranger eyed him narrowly and did
not make direct reply to the question.
You all is named Cain and you
come from Atlanta, don't yer?' he
asked.
Yes" replied Cain.
