Disarmino Powers of Evil.

A very interesting custom has just
been carried out by the Arab popula-
ton of Tripoli. Several huge cranes
for salvage work recently arrived
there from Genoa, but before any Of
the 500 Arab workmen could be in
duced to start operations, the Moslem
priests were summoned. Then began
the celebration of an elaborate rite,
during which large number of young
lambs were inundated on the altar.
The new salvage plant was smeared
from top to bottom by the priests with
the blood of the victims, and the cere-
mony concluded with a sacred dance
around the cranes. After this the
Arabs set themselves joyfully to work
in the assurance that the powers Of
evil had been effectively paralyzed.

Tall Trimmings on Millinery.

According to the Dry Goods Econo-
mist, tall trimmings continue the
rage and in some of the imported
models this idea is carried almost to
the point of absurdity. Among the
most effective models now being
shown in which the tall trimming idea
is employed is a blacl. Milan sailor
with the brim gently rolled at the left
side. A tiny fringe of black goura
outlines the brim and from the edge
of the brim at the left shoots upward
tall black goura aigrette bent at
the top in loop form. The tall trim
ming idea is also strongly emphasized
in this market. Question marks of
feathers, ribbons, cords, etc. long
pointed sleeves, fat spear-lke orna
ments of velvet and of various fancy
silks, aigrettes of small flowers close
ly packed together, and long spike
like jet ornaments are all utilized in
this fashion.

SYNOPSIS

In a spirit of fun Mayor Bedight,
summer visitor, Is chased through the
woods by ten laughing girls, one of whom
he catches and kisses. The girls form
themselves into a court and sentence him
to do the bidding of one Of their number
each day for ten days. A legislative
measure opposing woman suffrage which
dropped from the mayors pocket, is used
to compel him to obey the mandates OF
the girls. His first day of service Is with
May Andrews, who takes him fishing
They are threatened by the sheriff with
arrest. Miss Vining sees what she con-
siders a clandestine meeting between one
of the girls and the mayor. The next
day he goes driving with Mabel Arney;
They meet with an accident. are arrested
and locked up, but escape. The mayor
returns to the hotel, finds the sherir
waiting for him. and takes refuge in the
room of Bess Winters. He plans to get
possession of the discriminating bill. With
Harriet Brooks the mayor goes to inVes-
tigate an Indian mound They are caught
in thunder storm. Returning late he
has rather a stormy interview with
Judge Vining. who seeks to find out
who returned to the hotel with him:
Thursday was Mayor Bedights day OF
attendance upon Margaret Farnsworth.
She decoys him into a cabin IN the
woods, and he is made a prisoner by the
game warden. He is later released by
one of the girls.

He worried through the busy days
Because his plans so often failed;
He sought success in many ways,
Distractions daily he assailed;
He longed for honor and for fame,
He strove to win lofty place:
His hair grew gray and wrinkles came
To write the story on his face.
He worked with all the might he had,
To prove his worth and win regard
His shoulders dropped, his look grew sad.
The path he chose was steep and hard:
Deprived of sympathy and aid
He struggled on, defying Fate;
With talents that were small he made
A splendid struggle to be great.
His wife from day to day complained;
Her once fair face was ever sad;
Twas not that he so seldom gained
The ends that might have made him
glad;
Her tones were tinged with deep regret,
And sorrow came with her to dwell,
Because it was so hard to get
Dressmakers who could fit her we'll

Ever See a Frou's Nest?

In Brazil there exists species Of
tree frog (Hyla faber) which con-
structs in the water a curious nest,
or fortification, to protect its eggs
and it's young from the attacks of fish.
Starting at the bottom of a pond, the
mother frog erects circular, tube
like wall of mud which at the top pro-
iects above the surface of the water
where it bears some resemblance to
the crater of a miniature volcano
In the water thus enclosed the eggs
are laid, and when they have hatched
out the young frogs are secure from
enemies until they are able to take
care of themselves. In the meantime
the parents remain in the neighbor
hood as if on guard.

eighteenth century shade of green,

Innings for velvet and fur. Yellow and
orange are also popular for this pur-
pose. Much can be expressed in a
coat lining Many of these Innings are
works of art in themselves, and lin

Don'ts for the Nursery.

Don't shut up the children in the
night nursery at bedtime with never

Don't cover up the heads of the lit
tie ones on cold nights, as they did in
old days, knowing no better

bushes, he waited An hodr passed
and then came voices and rustling In

two deputies hove into view. The
warden's face was flushed with ex

twenty feet away, Bedight waited
tensely
"Come on out; the doors unlocked y
shouted the warden.
Still no answer.
Col darn ye; I'll show ye. Come
on in, fellers," bawled the officer
throwing open the door and dashing
into the cabin, followed by his depu.
ties.
With an agile spring, Bedight left
the clump of bushes and dashed for
the door. The warden saw him com
ing and sprang to meet him-but too
late! Slanlming the door shut, the
mayor shot the bar home
He could hear the strenuous objec.
tions of the prisoners as he hurried
away, making a detour to a farmers
house, where he hoped to secure
something to eat. A ruddy-cheeked
farmers wife fed him bountifully and
protested at the unnecessary size of
the coin he gave her for his dinner
and a basket of provisions, with
which he set out for the cabin.
Reaching the wood-chopper's hut
in which two hours previous he had
been prisoner. he raped on the
door.

voice within, ''let us Quit"

A growl of mingled disappointm ent
and relief preceded the shattering OF
the glass. Bedight held his basket on
his left arm and began passing provi
sions through the aperture.

led. 81 serve excellent meals at both
my boarding houses. I'll bring you to

yourselves comfortable. How would

It was dark when Bedight reached
Squirrel Inn and slipped unobserved
to his room.
When Jackie Vining came down al
six next morning to take a constitu
tional before breakfast the mayor
sat in an easy chair On the veranda
smoking his favorite pipe.
will you kindly tell Miss Mason
that l am waiting her commands? p
he asked easily, with no trace Of re
sentiment in his voice.
'1 was going to liberate you This
morning" she said simply, trying tc
hide her surprise.
"Oh, l got out last night, thank
you. I'm particular about my owr
bed. Never could sleep well in q

After breakfast Alice Mason, the
girl appointed by the court to defend
Bedight on the occasion of his trial
called him aside.
