A New Shower
Dear Miss Doom


l am getting up surprise miscel-
laneous shower for a friend and
would like to ask you for help. Will
you please suggest new way of ar
ranging the gifts to be presented to
the bride elect? And would also be
glad to know of some new games to
play. At most all of the showers [
have attended the gifts were placed
in a basket, nicely decorated, and
hearts were played during, the eve
ming. l hope you will help me by
suggesting something new Thank
ing you in advance, S. ID.
Naturally, the heart will figure
prominently in the decorations at al
most any kind of an affair in honor
of a prospective bride And it is just
as natural to select hearts as the
card game to be played.
A novel idea, carried out at re-
cent affair for an engaged girl, was
a "silence" party. Guests were warned
that every utterance would demand
a penny fine. As they entered the
hostess bowed silently, finger on her
lips Every giggle demanded a
penny. When they were seated at
table mechanical mouse was wound
up by the hostess and sent gliding
across the floor. The shrieks that
followed resulted in veritable show
er of coppers.
As soon as order was restored it
seemed that luncheon was about to
be served, but to half of the guests
were given empty plates and the 9TH
ers were served with artificial fruit
eggs, etc.
Under the table was fastened loud
gong that was rung occasionally. os-
tensibly to call the maid, but really
to startle the guests into breaking
the silence. For fifteen minutes
everything was done to induce a
laugh or exclamation, and then the
ban was lifted and dainty meal
served,
The place cards, which also served
as favors, were printed notices
praising silence and with the guests
names written on the margin. The
fines were used to buy cook book
for the honored guest, and also a
leather-covered book, into which was
pasted the recipes brought by the
guests.
Why not present the gifts in this
manner: 81
Play a blindfolded game, such as
pinning the Ratchet to 1.-The turkey $
neck-this is exactly the same as the
famous donkey game-and when the
bride-elect's turn comes have the
girls tiptoe to where their gifts have
been piled, each taking one and
standing in circle about the guest
of honor Then, when everybody is
ready, drop the things with loud
clatter-of course, I do not mean the
breakable ones-and pull the bandage
from her eyes. She will then be in
the centre of circle of packages,
which she must set on the floor and
open, while the others sit outside the
gift circle and pass comments.

Nora gazed into the wall mirror and
gave pat or two to her hair.

ton, and had done away. with those
stilted mannerisms that generally
make rivals ridiculous in all eyes
save their own. The revelation at
luncheon had convinced them of the
futility of things in general and of
woman in particular. They We're,
without being aware of the fact, each
a consolation to the other. The old
adage that misery loves company
was never more nicely typified.
If Celeste expected Nora To exhibit
any signs of distress over the APP
preaching departure, she was disap-
pointed. In truth, Nora was secretly
pleased to be rid of these two
suitors, much as she liked them. The
barone had not yet proposed, and his
sudden determination to return to
Rome eliminated this disagreeable
possibility. She was glad Abbott was
going because she had hurt him with
out intention, and the sight of him
was, in spite of her innocence, con-
slant reproach. Presently she would
have her work, and there would be
no time for loneliness.
The person who suffered keenest
was Celeste. She was awake; the
tender little dream was gone: and
bravely she accepted the fact. Never
her agile fingers stumbled, ana she
played remarkably well, from Bee
thoven, Chopin, Grieg, Rubinstein,
MacDowel. And Nora perversely
enough, sang from old light opera.

Celeste went to her room and Nora
out upon the. terrace. 1t was after
five. No one was about, so far as
she could see. She stood enchanted
over the transformation that was af-
fecting the mountains and the lakes.
How she loved the spot. How she
would have liked to spend the rest
of her days here! And how beauti-
full all the world was today!
She gave a frightened little scream;
A strong pair of arms had encircled
her. She started to cry. out again.

blotted out by the pressure of4fa

struggled violently, and suddenly was

Juries, Home Rule and Others

Dear MISS doom; .- .=..-4
Will you kindly answer the follow
ing questions in your columns of the
/. What was the former and what
is the present method of selecting
juries in New Jersey?
8. Name the State departments in
New Jersey that publish reports, and
name the reports that. may be OBJ
tanned gratis.
Thanking you in advance and hop
ing to be able to reciprocate, | am,
DAILY STAR READER.
Under the. old law juries were drawn
by the sheriff directly The mem
bers of grand juries were his own
personal choice Petit jury members
were also his own choice, but with
tie latter. he placed 120 names on
slips of paper, and in the presence
of the court drew out sixty, which
constituted the panel
Under the new system. grand and
petit iuries are drawn under the SUI
uervision of the court. For grand
juries, the sheriff submits to the
court a numbered list of 500 names,
placing discs with corresponding
numbers in a box. Of this number
forty are drawn out. the judge check
ing off each number as it is drawn.
The first twenty-four constitute the
jury, except where it is impossible for
the person so selected to serve. Then
one is selected from the remaining
names. With petit juries, the plan is
the same except that 700 names are
submitted and as many discs used.
2. Home rule means government at
home. In the case of Ireland, it
means government of Ireland by the
people of that country, with COVER
nor general and parliament the same
as the people of Australia and Can
ada have in their respective coun-
tries.

(COntInued. from Yesterday.l

"a woman would good deal rather
believe clrcumstantial evidence than
not. Humph!" The colonel primed
his pipe and relighted 1t. 'She
couldn't have been worth much"
Worth much!" cried Abbott.
What do you imply by that?"
mo man will really give up a
woman who is really worth while,
that is, of course, admitting that your
man, Courtlandt, is a man. Perhaps,
though, it was his fault. He was not
persistent enough, maybe a bit spine
less. The fact that he gave up so
quickly possibly ronvinced her that
her impressions. were correct. Why,
I'd have followed her day in and day
out, year after year; never would l
have let up until l had proved to her
that she had been wrong"
1.-THE colonel is right" Abbott ap-
proved, never taking his eyes off
Courtlandt, who was apparently abb
sorbed in the contemplation of the
bread crumbs under his fingers.
"And more, by hook or crook, I'd
have dragged in the other woman by
the hair and made her confess"
81 do not doubt it, colonel" respond
ed Courtlandt, with a dry laugh.
"And that would really have been the
end of the story The heroine of this
rambling tale would then have been
absolutely certain of collision between
the two"
THAT is like a woman" the barone
agreed, and he knew something about
them. And where is this man now
Here" said Courtlandt, pushing
back his chair and rising. II am he. :
He turned his back upon them and
sought the garden.
Tableau!
"Dash mel" cried the colonel, who,
being the least interested personally,
was first TO recover his speech.
The barone drew in his breath
sharply. Then he looked at Abbott.
1T suspected it," replied Abbott to
the mute question. Since the episode
of that morning his philosophical out
look had broadened. He had fought
a dual and had come out of it with
flying colors. AS long as he lived he
was certain that the petty affairs of
the day were never again going to
disturb him.
Let him be-" was the coloneps sug-
gestion, adding a gesture in the direc-
ton of the easement door through
which Courtlandt had gone. He's as
big a man as Nora is a woman. II ne
has returned with the determination
of winning her, he WILL"
They did not see Courtlandt again.
After few minutes of restless to-
and froing, he proceeded down to the
landing, helped himself to the colonePs
motor boat, and returned to Bellaggio.
At the hotel he asked for the duke,
only to be told that the duke and
madame had left that morning for
Paris. Courtlandt saw that he had
permitted one great opportunity to
slip past. He gave up the battle.
One more good look at her, and he
would go away. The odds had been
too strong for him, and he knew that
he was broken.
When the motor-boat came back,
Abbott and the barone made use of it
also. They crossed in silence, heavy
hearted
On landing Abbott said: at is

WHATp THE BUsTLEa

Among the newest style features
brought out in high-class gowns are
the hustle effects. these designs being
notifications of Premet's ideas which
were launched at the Paris openings
in August, says the Dry Goods Econ
omist.
In working it out the skirts, en-
some cases, are made very snug
fitting below the knees. This accen-
tuates the distended effect of the
short tunics, or paniers, that are
draped or pulled up in the back.
These somewhat bouffant arrange
ments have very soft effect, pro
duced by placing the fullness well to-
wards each side of the back, in this
way leaving the centre In straight
loose folds. H.,
When the side sections of short
panier or tunic are gathered from the
waistljne to the edge the gathers
thus formed fall cross-wise or the
silk and towards the back. And by
placing the fullness in this POSITION
q. curved figure line is produced; IN
stead of the extremely fiat pack
which has prevailed through several
successive seasons.
