are from fifteen to seventeen years of
age these kimono slumber gatherings
have been quite fad, Six or eight or
sometimes only four girls are asked
to come for dinner if convenient; il
not, the hour is set for 1880. Each
girl comes with her own kimono and
breakfast or boudoir cap, and when
these are donned the fun begins. If
the room has an open crate fire so
much the better Candles are lit and
the hostess invites each one to help

HAD THE LAUGH ON OFFICER
Policeman, Keen on Investigation, by
No Means as Sharp as He
Might Have Been.

A police officer tells an interesting
tale Of an old woman he once had to
deal with. A batch of bank notes had
been stolen and the detective found
some one to tell him that the old wom-
an in question, a notorious fence"
had one of the notes, at least, at her
house.
So implicitly did the detective rely
upon his informer that he set aside
the formality of search warrant and
proceeded to visit the old woman's
house, locked the doors on the inside
and rummaged the rooms from cellar
to roof. He is an officer who prides
himself on his keen scent N a search.
but he was completely batfled and
after tearing up some boards and
knocking down some plaster by way
of making a show of doing something,
while he waited for new idea, at
last he gave 1t up.
Turning to the woman and handing
her back candle which she had lent
him to work with, he said:
We'll. this time l confess | am
beaten. Tell us where it Is, mother,
and I'll get you off,"
The promise was sufficient.

unable to make effective protest-he
saw nobody. And he worked harder
than he had ever worked before.
Yet somehow the panel painting
made little progress. The fact is,
Quincy found what many people have
found: that 1t is easier to be alone in
company than when one has ones
own thoughts for companions. Life
. In this old English house proved de-
Ightfully puzzle-provoking. He ex-
plored every nook of the rambling old
building. But he always came back
to the long central hall, where the
portraits of the Eppings hung.
They hung in their gilded frames,
stiffly decorous, these dead lords and
ladies of Epping Manor, ranging from
Sir Thoman Epping, in doublet and
leather stockings, who had been
knighted for heroic action against the
Spaniards in the days of King James,
to the late James Epping ESQ.,, mem
Der Of parliament, in the conventional
frock coat of modern society. Some
Of them bore names upon the frames,
but she was unnamed, this beauty of
the long ago, dressed in the big Gains
borough hat and wide-sleeved gown of
the days of the third George.
Quincy was fascinated by this pic
ture.. 1t embodied more than any pic
ture he had ever seen the woman of
whom he had secretly dreamed. He
had never met her, had not even &C
knowledged his own secret romance
until he saw her face look out at his
from the canvas. And she must have
been dead nearly a century!
When one lives alone one is prone
to gain rein to fancies which the nor
NAL man, because they are abnormal,
easily represses. Gurney's work was
abandoned; he would spend houls be-
fore the picture, gazing at the face
that was bent down toward his. His
fsncies became almost realities.

But we don't know how to play
cards." walled the fourteen-year-old,
and we do want a progressive party
with prizes and score cards" So
that is how this amusement came
about and as it was such a grand sue
cess l am going to tell my readers all
they did and how they did it.
There were sixteen guests, so four
card tables were arranged with a pile
of assorted buttons in the middle of
each. Cloth-covered buttons and
shank ones were barred. Partners
were chosen by matching four but
on trays. This made jolly prelimi-
nary time. A fifth button was sewed
to a corner of the table; thus the
four white agate buttons found their
table, the four shoe buttons and four
black buttons and the four smoked
pearls. On the table four needles
ere placed mo. y threaded with a
stout white thread about eighteen in
ches long; longer than this will tan
BILE. 1t is good plan to wax the
thread bit, too. When the bell rang,
the play began, threading buttons,
using one hand only; at the expira-
tion of the time, say four or five min
utes, the ring of bell stops work and
the two having the most buttons to
their credit progress to the next table.
Before going the number is placed on
score card and the buttons replaced
in the center of the table.
Very cute score cards may be made
by gluing bone buttons such as are
| used on underwaists to the card, they
have only eyes and the nose, mouth,
hair and eyelashes are painted on
Queer bodies are drawn or painted
on the famous coop" order and the
result is laughable in the extreme.
Here is another button stunt: Choose
partners by matching ribbons on
which button is sewed on the ends
just for decoration. Then furnish
each couple with small square of
cloth, six buttons, a needle and thirty
| inches of thread. The girl must hold
the needle for the boy to thread, then
she must hold the cloth for him while
he sews on the six buttons. The
| couple who finish first win the prize.
Suggestions for prizes would be but
ton bag, gold collar buttons, collar
button box, and at the favor countef
candy boxes are obtainafke in shape
of spools Of thread or silR also thin
bles. They would make appropriate
souvenirs.
