How She Helped.

"While mother is busy" said dear little
Nan,
I'm going to help her all that I can"
"Huh!" laughed her brother. what can
you do?
I can tend fires and run errands too.
But you are a girl and, besides, so small
You won't be able to help at ALL"
Mans eyes We're bright with her happy
plan.
"Oh, can help-I know that 1 can!
If don't tease, but keep still as mouse
And go on tiptoe all over the house
And smile just as hard as ever I can,
That will help mother" said little Nan.

A Message In Blood

TINE detective has many curious rid
dies to solve. One of the most
remarkable that ever came up
for my solution was connected with
the case of a man named Joel Klap-
per. He lived alone and was murder
ed one night during a blizzard. The
murderer left him for dead, but he
did not die for some time after the
blow was struck.
Klapper was used to reading at night
in bed before going to sleep and kept
on a stand beside his bed a lamp,
matches and some books. When the
body was discovered in the morning
the lamp was burning, though the oil
was nearly exhausted. People who had
passed the house between II and 12
reported that they had seen no light,
but a man who had passed just before
dawn on his way to a train declared
that he had noticed a light in Klap-
per's room.
l framed several theories, more or
less influenced by this circumstance
Klapper was surely in bed with the
light out when the murder was COM
mitted. How then could it have been
burning in the morning unless he had
lived long enough after the blow to
light it? l had feeling that the lamp
had been lighted by the victim with a
purpose after he had been struck.
looked for a communication on pa
per, but found none. / was absently
turning over the leaves of one of the
books on the table when l came to a
red smudge. 1t covered the word
"ten." 1t at once occurred to me that
Klapper had communicated something
concerning the murder by words
smudged by his own blood, and look
ed for more, which l found. expect
ed that they would lie in the order of
a message, but they did not. Consec-
ut1vely placed they read:

The moment had placed these
words on paper in the above order I
knew from the words scar, beard and
hair that 1t contained a description Of
the murderer. also inferred from the
words crisp, five, bill, ten and national
that 1t also contained description Of

!: GYRATI0NS OF FASHION.

If you don't know how to make the
little satin roses which are seen every
where on frocks for formal and infor-
NAL wear, on negligees, ON boudoir
caps and on lingerie, try covering tiny
wooden button mOlds with bits of diff
ferent colored satin and tucking these
gay little circles in the folds of lace
and lingerie to give the needed note of
color.
Cretonne motor parasols are shown
in the shops. They are simply made,
with scalloped or slightly ruffled edge.
They are mounted on natural wood
handles and. like all motor parasols,
are so made that the parasol may be
adjusted at any desired angle to the
handle. They will be carried with lin
en- or pongee or cretonne suits or mo-
tor coats.
Plain linen waists are apparently to
be much worn with coat suits for
warm weather. One, of heavy linen,
is made with turnback collar and cuffs
which show a simple embroidered de-
sign-an eyelet fianked by two leaves
worked at Intervals of about an inch
in heavy embroidery cotton. The col
lar and cuffs are edged with narrow
Irish picot lace edge. A small pocket
is applied to the left front. 1t, like
the collar and cuffs, is embroidered
and edged with picot

THE SUMMER GUEST.

There is the guest who brings
her pet dog with her and expects
to have chops especially broiled
for it, a cushion particularly pre-
pared for it's bed and general
homage paid to it from the be-
ginning to the end of its stay.
There Is the guest who for
gets everything. She cannot find
her baggage check to begin with.
and when her trunk finally ar
rives she announces that she has
forgotten to bring a dressing
gown, a toothbrush, the belt that
goes with her linen suit and the
little gift she had planned to
give her hostess, and the hostess,
long suffering mortal, is asked to
supply all the wants but the last.
There is the man who talks
about his business from the time
he enters until the time he
passes out of .6ur house, and
there is the woman who talks
about Bobbie and Katherine un-
til you are sure that you would
detest such paragons Of every
thing wonderful as her children
must be.
The ideal guest should indulge
in none of the follies practiced
by the beautiful princess or any
Of her modern fellows, and if
she does not have to spend all
her time remembering the things
she should avoid she will enjoy
her visit and her hostess will en-
joy it too.

Queen Opposes Gambling.

Queen Mary of England has taken
steps to put a stop to the gambling
craze in certain London social circles.
She had observers compile a list of all
the society women who were frequent
Ing gambling resorts. Then she in
formed the devotees of the gaming ta-
bles that they could choose between
the dens and the court receptions, as
no one who gambled would be invited
to further functions at the palace.

HARVARD TEAM TO
RECEIVE A TRIAL
Coaches Expect No More Than
Three Touchdowns Against
Brown Today.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass, Nov. 15-'No
more than four touchdowns," is Browns S
slogan here today before its contest with
Harvard, while the Crimson hardly ex-
poets to score more than three. Harvard
has shaken up its varsity lineup on the
eve of the Brown game, and there is
some doubt in the minds Of the coaches
what the team can now do.
Harvard will play against Brown with
the team almost as it will be seen in
the stadium next week. Hardwick will
be at right end, but it is doubtful wheth-
er O'Brier will play at left end more
than few moments. Captain Storer
has bad cold and is another man not
likely to remain in today's lineup a
great while. but otherwise the eleven
probably will be representative for the
greater part of the game. BradIee is a
little lame as the result of a twist in
yesterdays drill. but he will play a por-
ton Of the game in combination with
Mahan and Hardwick-
The Crimson's shifted lineup will get
its first test. The changes when summed
up mean nothing at all on the attack
except that Storer has gone back to
play tackle and Hardwick will be
at end. The varsity line shifts on at
tack will be run off without any change
from a week ago, but on defense there
will be several changes from what was
put on at Princeton.

big football games took on a new squirt

money money was wagered than on any
day since the opening of the football
season. During the forenoon the odds
on the Yale-Princeton game werequotcd
as 10 tot in favor Of the former. but
they changed later to 10 to 6, and about
600 was wsgered on these figures.
A bet Of $500 even money was made
that Princeton would score IL points
over the Blue and 500 even was bet
that Yale would not score. A bet of
800 also was made that Princeton would
not score during the first half.
The odds on the Carlisle-Dartmoutl
game were 10 to 8 infavor OF Dartmouth
| with more Indian money in sight thai
there has been previously. Even none.
was bet that Carlisle does not make
points, and bet Of s25 even was mad,
that it would rain during the game a

Odds on the Harvard Yale game are
to in favor of the former, with very
little betting.

ANNAPOLIS, Nd, Noy. 15.-Next to
the game against the team of the Mill
tary Academy, which marks the climax
of the season for both service teams,
the members Of the Navy contingent
regard today's game between the elev-
ems Of the Naval Academy and Penn
sylvania State as the most important
and interesting of the season. New
York University, which plays against
the midshipmen next Saturday, is not
expected to show much strength, and,
at any rate, Navy coaches will keep
most of the regulars out OF that game,
in order to guard against any injury
which might keep some of them out Of
the final contest. Today's game will
therefore furnish the last opportunity
OF getting line on the work of the
Navy team.
1t seems to be the settled policy of
the Navy coaches to start with back
field of such weight and strength as to
hammer the stamina out of the opposi-
ton in the first quarter. To this end
the backfield will be made UP this after
noon with three members who weigh
over $50 pounds each. Harrison will be
at fullback, and the coaches will deter
mine at the last minute which two Of
Failing, Blodgett, and McReavey will
start at the halves. Probably Nc
Reavey will stay out Of the game for
short time. The coaches are also unde-
cided whether Mitchell or Nichols will
be at quarterback, but both will be used
for about half the game, and their re-
spective showing will go far toward
determining the final occupancy of the
position.
The line will be: Left end, Ingram;
left tackle, Ralston; left guard, Howe;
center, Perry; right guard, Brown: right
tackle, Vaughan; right end, Gilchrist
Icaptain). The only change from the
arrangement which has been used in
most of the contests of the season is
that Vaughan has been placed at right
tackle in place of Redman. He weighs
about fifteen pounds more than Red
man, and is q fast and aggressive
player. He has been the first substitute
with guard. Pennsylvania State did not
pIav the midshipmen last season, but
in 1911 there was a scoreless tie between
them. Its early season games do not
indicate a team as strong IS usual, but
they have improved in the last two
weeks. and a hard game is expected.
The visitors arrived yesterday after
noon. and are in fine shape for the
game

Yale Has Long Lead
Over Tiger EIevens

The game between Yale and Princeton
today will be the thirty-ninth between
the old rivals. The Blue has big lead
in the number of games won, having
twenty to tbs credit Princeton has won

resulted in ties. Last year the game
resulted in to tie, and the year be
fore the Orange and Black triumphed
by a score of 6 to 3.
Princeton's victory In 1911 was the first
over the Ellis in seven years. The Tigers
won In 1903 by IL to 6. In 1906 the game
resulted in a csoreless tie, and in the
two years before the Blue scored rather
easy victories. In 1907 Yale earned a
victory by a margin of two points, the
score being II to 10. and the following
year the tally favored the Blue II to s.

Yale won the games in 1900, 1901 and
1902, having been beaten in 1893 and 1893
the score in the last named year being
