Councilman Thomas recommended the appointment of George Hoxie as a police constable without pay, ex- blaming the character of work done by Ar. Hoxie two months in the year, that could be better performed if he was clothed with police authority. Councilman Flynn said he had no ob- lection to the appointment of MT Hoxie but was of opinion that no police ap- pointments of this nature should be made without the approval of the chief of police.

sewing them on TO the material, may
be inexpensively purchased In many

from. and OF course they cay be used

in dark green striped MORE silk. and
liued with soft silk. and the size indi-

A novel feature about II is the little
frill that runs all round the edge.
Black silk cord OF fancy pattern is,
attached on either side and II is ar
ranged In loops with the ends knotted
and frayed out into tassels.
It might be made in other colorsI
than those suggested II desired, and

DAY OF THE DOUBLE SKIRT
Vogue That Has Much to Recommene
It Seems to Be Decidedly
on the Increase.

The vogue Of the double skirt seems
to be increasing. The under one, gen
orally of supple satin, is often draped
and drawn in around the ankles. Over
this a contrasting material is draped
or pleated. In the latter case it
might pass for an elongated tunic,
especially as it is often Of taffeta
The fancy for these double skirts
finds a better medium of expression
in the sheer summer materials.
Through the upper one, which is
transparent, one sees the colored gar
niture of the under one and the effect
is very soft and pretty.
Ribbons are used for this trimming
of the foundation skirt, just as they
are employed under transparent bod
ices This use Of ribbons under sheer
waists was introduced about year
ago, but did not find its way into the
for the multitude until this
spring. In spite of the fact that 1t has
now reached the bargain counter
stage it is still feature of many en-
quisite toilets.

Nevertheless it did seem strange
that two old friends should live In

lay between the two houses. But they
were the nearest neighbors OF one an

Then Wilson had come along and
snatched Adeline Farley out Of Yoak-

startling news came from Kansas City
that the pair were man and wife. Old
Farley forgave his daughter and took
her home when Wilson deserted his
young bride; but Yoakum never got

was not heard of for five and twenty
years. Then he drifted back TO take

Quite Correct.

During the army maneuvers two Of
ficers of the Royal artillery were dis
putting about the classification of a
tree. One said it was birch tree, and
the other an oak tree. They could not
agree, SO they called a gunner who
was sitting near by and asked him if
he could tell them what kind Of tree
1t was.
The gunner looked up and down the
tree, walked all round it, drew his
sword, and began cutting it. The
officers asked him what he meant by
this behaviour, when he looked up at
them and answered:

of tree 1t is"

at length delivered his long-expected
verdict:

UNMovED BY GOOD FORTUNE
John Mccluskey Evidently Possessed
of All the Well-Known Calmness
of the Scotch Nature.

It was said of John McCluskey
when he visited the states that he
was the calmest man in the world.
Throughout his sixty years he had
been a farm laborer in Scotland.
Some months previously his brother
James died and left a fortune of sew
eral hundred thousand dollars to the
brother he had not seen since they
bade each other good-by in the heath
er forty years before.
A lawyer was appointed the ad-
ministrator. 1t was his duty to find
the lucky brother.
He was slicing turnips for the
sheep on his employers farm, up
among the mist-clad hills of Scot
land" said the man of law, when l
found him. had traced his life from
the old farm on which he was born
step by step through the forty years
of ill-paid and often most unpleasant
labor, before found him. 1t was not
difficult, for he had held but few po-
sitions in all those years. Everyone
in the countryside knew him.
Are you John McCluskey"
asked.
II am said he, without taking his
eyes from the turnips and the knife.
Your brother James is dead in

He left you good fortune, said

with me, so that / can establish your

young man, said he. I'll be busy till
then. The fortune will keep, but the
turnips will not"

though a bitter enmity seemed to
rage between them. But Yoakum was
proud as well as shy. Thus, when he

Il should think, Adeline, that COM

would think of marrying again." her
friends would say. thinking Of her
neighbor.
"If it's viii Yoakum you're think
ing Of" Mrs. Wilson answered, you're
all dead wrong. When a man wants
to come counting me, let him come
and ask me. l don't go out of the
way to invite any man into my home"
"I'll never enter her home until she
asks me-" was Yoakums answer, and
the two stood pat. Inwardly both re-
gretted the position they had taken.
Each had secret romantic remem-
brances of that period when they
were sweethearts, but the widows
will was as inaexihle as his.
They were not enemies; when they
met they would bow and sometimes
speak, but their spoken words acted
as a barrier between them. Thus
matters ran along for year after
Yoakum's return.
March came, snowy and clustering.
The winds were incessant. Yoakum
was Harvesting his horse for the first
plowing one day when he felt vio-
lent blow on the back of the head. He
turned to defend himself, but every
thing swan before his eyes, and, with
the sense Of being carried away on a
swift river, he lapsed into uncon-
sciousness.
He opened his eyes ages later, as
1t seemed, and the first thing they lit
upon was the Widow Wilson.
He was lying in bed in a darkened
room, and she sat by his side. Her
eyes were red from crying. Yoakum
endeavored to sit up
"Hushl" she said, gently pressing
him backward you have been very
i'll. You must lie still"
The widow, in his house! Yoakum
had often pictured the possibility of
such an occurrence, but now, to his
surprise, his sensation was one of
shame. He looked at her as well as
he could in the obscurity of the room.
Except that she was more matronly
and that threads Of gray showed at
her temples, she might have been the
same Adeline Farley, and he might
have parted from her few minutes
before.
"Adeline," he said timidly, 1T all
seems like dream to me-"
Adeline was silent, but he could see
hat she, too, was moved
1T seems as though we hadn't been
parted these five and twenty years,
