band Of velvet about the crown at its
base.
The combination of white fur with
black velvet is very smart. Only a
good quality in velvet will produce the
best effect in combination with fur.
The second picture shows beauti-
full combination in gray and black
with touches of white. The shape is
simply a large soft cap with little
wiring about the face. The crown is
of duvetyne, with which the entire
shape is first covered. There is
band Of civet cat fur about the edge,
showing only the black fur.
A pair Of novel quilts, poved to-
ward the back provide the trimming.
They are made Of three quilts fused to-
gether, a light gray with a black and
a third small quill in gray tipped with
white. At the base of these quilts
there is small mounting of black and
white fur finished with silver orna-
ment.
The brims Of turbans are covered
with the short haired furs, like broad
tail, oftener than with shaggy furs.
Very smart small hats, with narrow
brims, have borders of fur in which
the fur projects in a fringe beyond
the edge. On these and on close
fitting turbans Of fur, tall standing
trimmings of fancy ostrich are the
favorite of all trimmings But made
for the same purpose are innumerable
fancy feathers in the prettiest and
most unusual forms.

"And-and his wife?" asked Lillian,
timidly.
II guess she's not the kind that
would stand by him when he's in trou.
BILE" answered Miss Simpson Though
now ! come to think of it, whom did
he marry?"
Lillian did not know what she an
swered. Caleb returning, to revisit
his home, was one thing, but Caleb in
troubled. That was quite different. To
her amazement she found that all the
old feelings had come rushing back as
if the thirteen years had never
elapsed.
She put on her hat and started up
the street. On every porch women
were rocking in the cool Of the after
noon, watching the passers-by. One
hailed her.
Come in, Miss Darrell" she said.
you look as if you were on an er-
rand, though"
YES" answered Lillian. I'm going
to call on Mr.. Trevethan."
An electric shock would have
stunned the other less. Lillian going
shamelessly to call on her old beau

the officers OF the law to come for

Trevethan mighty badly, then!
You See" explained Lillian. now
that he is in trouble somebody ought
to show him that his old friends are
his friends still. Don't you think so?"
20 yes-yes," answered the other
vaguely. 1t was fine sentiment, but
Lillian was going to call on man!
The girl knew what they thought
She had known it before she started
But the instinct of loyalty was
stronger than the sense of shame.
What did she care for misinterpreta-
tions? He was in trouble, perhaps
i'll, and she would show him that, in
spite of all, Port Smith was not going
to take sides against him.
But as she entered the gate of the
old house faintness came over her,
and she had to summon all her energy
to overcome it. She had not seen him
for Is years, and she pictured Caleb
as a boy still, with that adventurous
light in his eyes, It did not occur to
her that the years bring changes.

PRACTICALLY good sense lends it's
own attraction to the prevailing
styles in millinery for midwinter. The
fabrics used in the body of hats are
warm looking and actually cmfortable.
With black velvet far in the lead, we
have pushes, velours, clipped beavers,
duventine and brocaded fabrics, equal
ly comfortable looking and equally
fashionable.
Turbans and small close-fitting
shapes are supreme. Soft crowns,
amounting to cap over the head, are
almost universal, so that with the COM
5ination of fashionable shapes and
fashionable fabrics entirely in har-
mony the hat shapes for midwinter
leave nothing to be desired.
There are few shapes made entirely
of fur. In Millinery, as in coats, furs
are employed more generally as a
trimming. Bands and borders are
used, and some very interesting nov
elites in fur trimmings have appeared,
which indicate that we shall see furs
employed in new forms during the
remainder of the cold weather.
Two hats pictured here are fine ex-
amples Of the prevailing styles. One
Of them has rolling brim of black
velvet and soft crown of Crepe
Georgette. A band of white fur rolls
over the brim edge, outlining it and
framing the face prettily. A pair of
loops Of velvet, wired to support them,
has the effect Of wing trimming at
the back and provides all the decora-
ton necessary. There is uATrow
