To neglect the body, to call it un-

always dons robes made of heavy
Oriental fabrics, banded about the
waist with the fringed sashes of the
Nauteh girl. Mrs. Wilcox is color

eyes and family tinted complexion,
and one hardly would think that her
taste would run to the somewhat bar

evidently, this woman writer suits
her house gown to her temperament.
Gertrude Atherten always wears
Chinese mandarin coat over a silk

affected by women of individual

Idea for Cotton Meddlna.

The first year OF welded life brings
the cotton" celebration and the occa-
sion may be made a regular frolic II
only a congenial few are hidden to
make merry. Make the invitation spool
shape, a good sixed one. Then deco
rate with cotton batting sifted over
with diamond dust: mass 1t on the
window stills, mantel, on the plano and
everywhere that 1t will be effective.
The host may wear a cotton suit for
this occasion and 1t will be easy for
the hostess to wear a cotton gown. II
a suit cannot be managed for the
bridegroom, he can wear a cotton shirt
and necktie. Perhaps 1t will be pos
sible to get real cotton plants with
the bursting cotton pods which may be
used in lieu of flowers. Here Is a
laughable stunt with which to start
the evenings fun. Have narrow white
cotton tape arranged as for an old
fashioned spider web, wind 1t In and
out, over and under furniture, but in
stead "a having all the guests play at
once as& one person at time and al
low three minutes to see how much
tape he can entangle and roll up in
that time. When the umpire calls.
Times up" the piece of tape is cut
OF, and after all have had chance
each piece Of tape is measured and the
one having the longest piece is award
ed a prize, which should be of cotton
fabric. In the instance where this was
done the reward was cotton batting
doll candy box filled with candy. We
have all seen the cotton Santa Claus
figures and the little doll Christmas
tree ornaments? Well, these would be
just the thing for favors at an affair Of
this kind.
Another pastime would be to pass a
basket filled with different colors and
lengths of cotton tape with knots tied
In them and the trick is to see who
can unite the greatest number Of knots
IN the time SET. A prize may be Of
fered for this. In the south little bales
Of cotton may be obtained. which
would be appropriate souvenirs for
Shis celebration.

Some days ago a correspondent re-

use when she entertained her Sunday
school class Here are few questions

fairest In all the land?
How old was Methuselah when he
died?
Who was called "a ready scribe in

to meet him on terms Of friendship.
and she had not recognized him the
evening previous as he ran past her in
the dark.
Hamlin, his thoughts entirely CEN
tered upon Miss Mcdonald. had scarce
ly noted her companion, yet as he lin
gered while the carriage drew up be-
fore the Majors quarters. he seemed
to remember vaguely that she was a
strikingly beautiful blonde, with face
Swallowed by a broad hat. Although
larger, and with light fluffy hair and
blue eyes, the lady's features were
strangely like those Of her slightly
younger companion. The memory Of
these grew clearer before the Ser.
geant-the whiteness Of the face. the
sudden lowering OF the head; then he
knew her; across the chasm Of years
her identity smots him as a blow;
his breath came quickly and his fin
gers clenched.

them until they both disappeared to-
gether within the house. Miss NO

To Be Clear of Coffee Troubles.

Husband and myself both had the
coffee habit, and finally his stomach
and kidneys got in such a bad condi-

years. He was too sick to work. His
skin was yellow, and there didn't
seem to be an organ in his body that
was not affected.

was due to coffee and after some dis

powerful habit, One day we heard

CHAPTER xIV.-contlnued.

Voices reached him from outside,
echoing in through the high, iron
barred window, but they were distant,
the words indistinguishable. AS his
brain cleared he gave no further
thought to his own predicament. only
considering how he could best divert
suspicion from her. 1t was all a con-
fused maze, into the mystery of which
he was unable to penetrate. That 1t
wars Molly Mcdonald shrinking there
in the dark corner of the barracks
wall he had no doubt She might not
have recognized him, or imagined
that he saw her, but that spear of
light had certainly revealed face not
to be mistaken. White as 1t was, bag.
gard with terror, half concealed by
struggling hair, the Identification was
nevertheless complete. The very pit
eousness of expression appealed to
him. She was not girl easily fright
ened; no mere promiscuous shooting,
however startling, would have brought
that look to her face. He had seen
her in danger before, had tested "

In the darkness Of conjecture tNtal
seemed no other adequate explanation.
The two were intimate; the rumor Of
an engagement was already circulat-
ing about the garrison. And the strick-
en- man had endeavored to shift the
blame on him. Hamlin could not be-
lieve this was done through any de-
sire to injure: the Lieutenant had no
cause for personal dislike which
would account for such an accusation.
They had only met once, and then
briefly. There was no rivalry between
them, no animosity. To be sure, Gas
kjns had been domineering, threaten
ing to report a small breach OF discip-
line, but In this his words and actions
had been no more offensive than was
common among young officers of his
quality. The Sergeant had passed all
memory Of that long ago. 1t never
occurred to him now as Of the slight
est importance. Far more probable
did 1t appear that Gaskins' only mo-
tive was to shield the girl from pos.
sible suspicion When he had realized

II somebody is anxious to invest In .

to hand. Let US have a cult Of tax
ing your time. To faddists It has the
obvious advantage of being wholly
strange and revolutionary. We are
all convinced in these days that the
proper thing to do is to rush. We
are exhorted from a thousand plat
forms to act and not to think about
It, to reform everything and not to
be continually debating-as II the Inn

Donald glanced back toward him once
almost shyly, but the other never
turned her head. The carriage drove

though he had looked upon a ghost.

in the doorway smoking.
