She sprang to her feet on the impulse, smiling,

She looked vacantly at her husband. s'Dinner al

And now she was ready, almost intoxicated at a

there in the depths Of the mirror.
The banisters were decorated with twisted ropes
OF evergreens; she descended slowly, cheeks burning,
eyes fixed steadily on her husband, who stood mo-

there caught the thick tendrils of her heavy burnish-

arms.
She paused, made him a low reverence, then look

"Forgive youg" she repeated TREMENDOUSLY; 1T can

But there was no time, for the butler, bowling, had
drawn the portieres to the full length of the golden

Dear Miss Grey: Suppose
a man loans another $1O,-
900 with interest, and a
written contract was drawn,
one agreeing to repay the
other within a years time,
by accident the lawyer who
drew up the papers left off
n of the ciphers, making
1t read $1,000, would the
court allow this document to
stand, and could the party
recover the other $4,000? I
argu the original intention is
the paramount thing in con-
tracts, while my friend says
the loaner cannot recover.
C. G. w.
A.-NO living, breathing hu-
man a tell what a court will do,
but 1 am safe i'm saying the money
cannot be recovered unless the
who borrowed Is honest
enough to regard the original in
tention as you do, or you have
proof positive that it was a mis-.
take.
Dear Miss Grey: Would
white stockings and velvet
shoes look nice on a girl of

combination is permissible on
child IL she is dressed in white
but 1 think the black shoes and

white stockings, far o stylish
Velvet shoes are strictly out OF
place on q child, and are only ap.
propriate with a velvet, or silk

with these the plain satin slippers

is stylish because she has on vel
vet shoes does not know that the
attention she is attracting Is
forthcoming because she is no

of answering this. What can
be done with a parent who
will make the children strip
off all their clothes and
whip them with nettles, or a
strap until the blood runs
from their bodies? Please do
answer, as I know you will
sympathize with me. w. B.
A.-Go to the juvenile judge,
or the Humane society, and tell
them what you have told me, and
you will soon see what they will
do. Such a parent is not q father,
nor a mother, nor a fit person to
rear a child. Don't be afraid to
do as l say.
Dear Miss Grey: Do let
us have your opinion of the
slit skirt. Thanking you.
e.
A.-To begin with, L think IL
is foolish; to wear il, 1 think is
foOlisher; and to worry about it,
l think is foolishest.
heartily approve of skirts that
are not too full, nor too many, for
comfort; but when it comes to
transparent gowns, and skirts Sc
narrow that It is necessary to
slit them in order to be able to
walk, 1 think it silly. They are
not pretty. They m awkward in
the extreme.
1 know we have just as much
sense about fashions as does any
other country, and the time has
come to tear off the swaddline
clothes (which the clinging skirts
greatly resemble) and assert our
selves. Why not set the fashion
of a sensible garb for other
countries? It need not be ugly
because sensible.
It wouldn't surprise me II
the slit skirt is q step toward q
dress for women similar in some
respects to that worn by men, and
trousers Of regulation cut are
preferable, In my opinion, to the
present styles.
/ see no evil in the human
form aside from the wrong view
taken of it, but many do not un'
derstand it n that light. So
agree with old Pal / when he says;
IF meat makes my brother to of
fend, 1 will eat no meat while
the world stands" His was thu
true universal love for his fellow
man.

to express by a little gift the

KILBANE CRUsHEs OLLIE KIRK.
Abe Attelps Conqueror Lasts Less
Than Two Rounds.

ST LOUIS, January 2.-Oliver Kirk.
admittedly the best featherweight
product of st. Louis and the bow who
made Abe Attell quit, lasted just one
round and a half before Johnny Kill
bane, champion, yesterday afternoon
in the feature bout at the Future City
Athletic Club.
Kilbane tore his opponent to pieces
and battered him down with his fierce
infighting. The end came with Kirk
helpless against the ropes, his hands
hanging Imply at his side and his
quivering knees all but refusing to
hold him upright, even with the assist
ance of the ropes. 1t would have been
brutality to have permitted the cham
pion to land another punch and
Referee Sharpe stepped between the
pair sending kilbane to his dressing
room, while Kinks attendants helped
their crushed and dazed principal out
Of the ring.
They won't let me make money box
ing these boys. l have to knock them
out to make people believe that l can
fight" said kilbane in the dressing
room after the short session in the
ring.
There was no boxing or fiddling on
Kilbane's part and he went in from
the first crash of the gong to finish his
man as quickly as possible. Kirk tried
10 stem the tide and make it long
range fight but kilbane rushed and
would not be denied.

Tommy Murphy beat frankie Burns of
Oakland into submission in seventeen
rounds here yesterday afternoon. After
Burns had dropped from exhaustion, one
of his seconds tossed a towel in the ring.
frankie was beaten long before the
gong sounded for the closing round. With
his right eye cut open and his fighting
heart gone, the Oaklander refused even
to reply in the fifteenth and sixteenth
rounds to the short arm jolts that Muir
ply was handing to him. There was no
question as to the final outcome and 1t
took encouraging words from his advisers
to keep Burns going as long as he did.
Murphy, already sighting victory. met
Burns with a wicked rush in that last
period which frankie tried to shield with
his hands. They We're no protection and
as Murphy rained in lefts and rights that
rocked the Californian's head, Burns fell
to the canvas. He was up in three sec
onds. but was no faster than the towel
which acknowledged defeat.
Burns scored only once. in the second,
when he knocked Murphy down with a
short right. Local enthusiasm made
Burns to 1 favorite.

GAND|L SURE HE'LL
SHINE NEXT SEASON
Crack First Baseman Writes
That Already He Has
Started to Train.
GRIFF WILL HAVE ALL
HIS PLAYERS SIGNED SOON
Miller Higgins Will Give Larry
Mclean Another Chance.
Base Ball Gossip.
BY J.. ED GRILLo.

Though it is two months before Man
ager Griffith will ask his players to re-
port for training duty, Chick Gandil has
already started to work. In a letter to
the writer Gandil says that he is taking
long walks every day. as result of
which he is in better condition than he
has been in years. The removal of his
tonsls has been Of much benefit to him,
and he predicts that next season will be
by far the best in his career.
Il have had such ravenous appetite
of late that I took on lot of weight,
and / am doing lot of walking to get
myself hardened by the time l report"
he writes. 81 am going to be in fine
shape next season, which 1 hope will be
the best l ever had l look for the Ma
tionals to have great year and 1 shall
do everything l can to help the team
along
The fact that Gandil will be with the
team right from the outset next spring
is figured to make a big difference in its
showing during the first six weeks of the
campaign, compared with last season.
The Nationals were far below the 800
mark at the time Gandil joined them,
and 1t was from this out that the team
became factor in the race.
Larry Mclean, the Cincinnati catcher
whose violation of the training rules
caused him to lose his JOB with that
team, is to have another chance in fast
company. Miller Higgins, the new man
ager of the Cardinals, has decided to
give him chance. Mclean was to have
gone to the Browns, but Ban Johnson,
knowing the big fellows failing. blocked
that deal, and it seemed for a time that
Mclean would have to go to the minors
But Higgins came to his rescue. 1t was
only two weeks ago that Mclean, with
