Prominence of Buckles.

The prominence Of buckles is important
They range from metal to rosebuds. and
all the various varieties are really very
pleasing. 1t is probably the influence OF
the Louis Seize that has brought ABOUT
the wearing Of these gaudy ornaments
by women, because in his day there was
a vast amount of them used, more es-
pecially by men than by women.
The first intimation that the fashlon-
able world had that they were to be pop
,lar was in their appearance on slippers.
When they first arrived as finish TO
pumps they brought down upon them
quite a good deal Of criticism. Conserva-
tive women said that never would they
wear such conspicuous things on their
feet in the street, and they were not
quite sure that they were advisable even
FOR evening as they made the foot look
larger.
This wave of disapproval lasted only
for a few moments. and soon the very
women who criticised the buckle were
annearing abroad with them on patent
leather slippers Such is the way Gus
tom makes followers.
Good taste however, like good manners,
remain the same, although they are IN
f1uenced by the changing times. and those
who dress really well have never beer
able to satisfy themselves that an after
noon slipper intended for the house OF
a carriage is the proper thlne Tor the
nayement. There are too many kinds OF
Shoes for all occasions that are good
looking, comfortable and smart for any
woman to think that she must wear
high -heeled patent leather one at the
wrong hour.

To Keep Young and Attractive

Just as there is difference between
the gushing. etfusive manner that repels
where it Is meant to attract, and clogs
rather than stimulates, and the whole
hearted, refreshing manner that bears
the stamp OF sincerity. so is there a dis
t1nct1on between coquetry that is made
up OF pose and ingenue-like banality that
deceives no one save her who brings it
into play-and that legitimate coquetry
which is merely making use of ones
strong points
Pretty coquetry is nothing more or less
than good generalship, the exercise of
tactics taught by feminine instinct.
1t is subtle. instructive, charming, as
opposed to flirting. which is brazen and
obvious. Coquetry is not made up. as
many suppose. of goo-goo eyes and mushy
expression; it is an instructive play of

are no recipes for acquiring it. no direc-
ton that will even help. unless it is to
emphasize what has already been ex-
plained-that is. to put it in 'other words.
a delicate expression of an inward grace
of feeling that should be the last of all
the emotions to die within us.
When the instinct of coquetry is gone
entirely, then. indeed, is one old, old. But
just because coquetry is instructive it can
not be forced. Nothing Is more ridiculous
than a clumsy, deliberate attempt to play
the cOquette.

Summer Fruit Pudding.

Summer fruit buildings present a never
ending variety of desserts. Almost every
one has served fruit pudding recipes
which have been in the family for years
and almost every one from time to time
varies old recipes to produce new pud-
dings. One of the most easily made and
widely varied fruit buildings is that with
cottage pudding for foundation. To
make this cut out any firm fruit in
pieces and put a pint of it or a pint of
cleaned and assorted berries in the bot
tom of a round. buttered pudding dish.
Cover it with cottage pudding batter and
bake thirty-fve or forty minutes. Serve
it with a fruit sauce or any other pud-
ding sauce or cream.
An easily made fruit sauce is made Of
juice of any fruit thickened with arrow
root when 1t is hot seasoned with lemon
juice or wine, and sweetened with gran
ulated sugar. This sauce should be
served hot. Another easy way to make
fruit sauce is to crush the fruit, add
graduated sugar and heat 1t in bowl
over teakettle.
An unusual huckleberry pudding is
made with an egg. cupful Of molasses
and teaspoOnfui each of cinnamon, soda
and salt beaten together until they are
creamy and frothy. Add then two cup
fuls of flour and beat hard again. Wash
quart Of huckleberrieS and stir them
wet into the batter. Pour the pudding
into a buttered dish, cover it with a
sheet of brown asbestos and bake it slow
ly for fifty minutes or an hour. Serve
it with hard sauce.
Blackberry pudding can be made with
bread and butter. Cook the backberries
with water enough to cover them until
they are soft and sweeten them literally
Put them in layers with slices of bread
and butter in baking dish with berries
on the top. Let the pudding stand for an
hour or so and then bake it twenty min
utes. Cool it in the refrigerator and
serve it cold with cream.
When other fruits fail bananas may be
used for a summer padding. Peel and
chop bananas and mix them with an
equal measure of bread crumbs. To a
quart of the fruit and crumbs add a quar-
ter of cupful of sugar, a tablespoonful
of butter, the juice of a lemon and half
cupful of milk. Steam for two hours
and serve with any pudding sauce.

STORIES FOR BEDTIME.
Reddy Fox Visits Jimmy
Skunk.
By Thornton w. Burgess.
Copyright. 1913, by ]. G. Lloyd.)

Bobby Coon is afraid! Yes. sir. Bobby
Coon is afraid! He doesn't dare go with
me to look at that half-eaten chicken over
on the Green Meadows. He's coward
that's what he ISL
Reddy Fox muttered this to himself as
he trotted away from Bobby Coons big
hollow tree in the Green Forest. Reddy
was right and he was wrong. He was
right in thinking that Bobby Coon was
afraid. Bobby was afraid, but that didn't
make him q coward. You see. he couldn't
see what good it would do him to go see
that half-eaten chicken way out there in
the Green Meadows so far away from
the trees. You know, Bobby is like Hap
py Jack Squirrel-he never feels really
safe unless there is tree close at hand
to climb, for Bobby's legs are not very
long, and. though he can run fast for a
little distance, he soon gets out of breath.
Then ne climbs the nearest tree But il
there had been any really good reason
for going Bobby would have gone even
though he was afraid. and that shows
that he wasn't coward.
But Reddy Fox likes to think himself
very brave, and every one else a coward
when the truth is Teddy is one of the
greatest towards among all the little
meadow and forest people. So he trotted
along with his nose turned up in scorn
because Bobby Coon was afraid. He was
disappointed. too, was Reddy Fox. You
see he had hoped to get Bobby to go with
him, and when they got there to get
Bobby to go close to the half-eaten chick
en- and try and find out who had left it
there on the Green Meadows, and what
for Reddy. who is always suspicious,
thought that there might be trap, and
if there was. Bobby would find It, and
then Reddy would know without running
any danger himself That shows how
sly he is. He wouldn't have cared how
much trouble Bobby Coon might have
gotten into. so long as he, Reddy Fox,
found out what he wanted to know.
But as long as Bobby wouldn't go
there was nothing for Reddy to do but
to try the same plan with Jimmy Skunk.
and he headed stright for Jimmy Skunk 8
house. Now down deep in his heart Reddy
Fox hated Jimmy Skunk, and more than
once he tried to get Jimmy into trouble.
But now as he saw Jimmy sitting on his
doorstep Reddy looked as pleasant as
only Reddy can. He smiled as II Jimmy
were his best friend.
Good morning, Jimmy Skunk. I'm SO
glad to see you." said Reddy. II hope
you are feeling well this morning
Now Jimmy had had a good breakfast
of fat beetles, and he was feeling very
good-natured. But he wasn't fooled by
Reddy's pleasant ways. To himself he
thought, Il wonder what mischief Reddy
Fox is up to now" but aloud he said:

looking very flne and handsome this

AUTOMOBILE RACE FROM DUNCAN
 ID STAFFORD
Race Is Over Route That May Be Part of Transcontineatsi Highway

A spirited automobile race was run from Duncan to Stafford on Tues day of this week, the route traversed being part of the route that may be finally selelcted that will lead from coast to coast.
 Several drivers had promised to enter for the race, but because of the damage caused to the road by the recent heavy rains in the GiIa valley, only two contestants entered. The contestants were George El1edge and Wiley Jones, Jr., both of Stafford. The best time was made by Elledge, his record being one hour and thirty-six seconds. This is good record, the distance being fl miles, and the roads in a bad condition. Elledge drove a Weile car, while Jones drove a Ford. B. R. Lanneau, of Duncan, was the official starter.
 This road has recently been tenn porarily repaired, throughout the dis tance between Duncan and Stafford. much interest having been aroused among the citizens of that portion of the Gila valley, who appreciate the great importance of having the Dun can-Globe route, rather than that of the Borderland, given the approval of the var1ous movements working TOT the construction of a transcontinental highway.
 It is stated that citizens along the G1Ia between Duncan and Globe are furthering the betterment of the road, many of them having con- tributed labor to the work of repair ing.
 Much optimism is expressed in re- gard to the prospects of the national n-gnway nnalIy coming rom LOrus- burg to GIoDe, along the GHa r1ver. Such energy as that displayed by the Gila valley people indicates that they are fully alive to the possibilities of their route.

OWLS ORGANIZING A LODGE IN
 CLIFTON
State Organizers of the Owl Lodge Now Taking Applications for Membership for Lodge to Be
 Organized in Clifton.

Messrs. H. Weaver, w. D. Smith, and B. Thompson, state organizers of the Owl lodge, have been in Clifton for some time for the purposes of or ganizing here a local lodge 0r the or der.
 It is planned to havei n Clifton a lodge, the membership of which will be composed of residents Of Clifton, 'Metcalf and Morenci The present numb mber of applicants secured amounts to about 225, and it is the expectation of the organizers to have practically double that number at the time of in- stallation which will probably be at the latter part of next week, although the installation may be postponed to later date.
 These gentlemen have just complet- ed the organization of a lodge at Miami, and at which place they were very successful, having organized there with a membership of 25O.
 Also at Bisbee a campaign has re- suited in great increase to the mem- bership of the lodge, which has been organized for some time. More than 700 new members were secured there
 The Owl lodge is now one of the strongest, in point of members, in more than 500,000 members and more than 2,SO0 nests, as the locals are called.
 MT. Weaver states that arrange ments are being made for the run ming of a special train from both Mo renci and Metcalf on the night of the organization, and that a smoker will be held after the business of the has been disposed of, the in- tention being to make of the organ ization night one long to be remem- bered in Owldom.
 It is probable that the Empire thea ter will be chosen as the place at which will be held the regular meet ings of the order at this place.
