ing the patrons out Of lhe building.
IN the meantime, seeing that the
flames were gaining rapidly. some one
rushed to the Friendship Fire Company
house, in the rear Of the theatre. The
fremen grabbed hand extinguishers,
and others carried chemical hose into
the theatre. By this time the entire
stage was mass Of flames and the
curtain went with puff, the blaze be-

one pulled the fire alarm box, No. 3 at

Immediately by Fire Chief Magill and
his assistants. Chief agill recognized

ages and sent in a second alarm. This
was followed by a general alarm, and
from then until 1870 O'Clock every
fire fighting machine in Wilmington
was in service.
When tha flames ate their way up to
the loft the heat was intense aid those
who had been attempting to fight the
flames were compelled to run for their
lives. anager Demaree jumped from
the stage and started towards the box
Office for the receipts. He found the
door locked, and the money could not
be gotten. ShiVery held the main doors
closed in order to stop draft, but the
smoke and heat were too much and the
two men were compelled to leave the
burning building.
Alvin Bennett and Ernest Taglio the
moving picture operators, had narrow
escapes from injuries AS Bennett
started out, he missed his fellow worker
and he started upstairs to search for
Taglio, whom he thought had fallen in
the smoke-flled building. The two
youths met on the second floor, but that
time their escape was cut off by way
of the stairway and they were compel
led to jump to the marquee in front of

MO ONE need remain long In doubt
IN as to what to get for a maid or
matron in this day Of the vogue of
giFdles and sashes. A girdleless gown
is hardly to be found and whether for
the street, the home, or evening wear,
ribbons are used to form the circlet
that enfolds the waist or terminates
the bodice. There are any number Of
styles in girdles and sashes to choose
among made Of every variety Of weave
known to the loom and every color
and combination Of colors that has
been thought out.
A girdle of wide plaid ribbon, fin
ished with sprightly bow Of two
loops and two ends, is shown in the
picture, It makes Christmas gift
that will delight every woman who
likes to keep abreast with the mode.
The girdle portion is boned to spread
the ribbon and hold it in place with
out pins. The bow is simply tied and
may be united and the length wrapped
about the figure If preferred.

could Rosie see the kind Sanity man Of
her street, who had told her such won
derful tales of toys, fairies and Of the
real country of deep hills and red sun
sets.
Suddenly she thought Of something,
a something so different that it made
her heart go thumpty-thump, She
would go to the wonderful toyshop,
just around the corner and see for her
self, If her friend was there.
But not a tired, hurried clerk Of the
shop had time to answer Rosie's CUES
tions Finally she approached tall
gray-haired man standing in the center
of the long aisle. She felt certain he
would know something about the San
ty of her street.
"Please, do you know our Sanity
MANI"
"Who?" asked the-man.
"The Sanity man, who wore a red
coat, cap and carried a sign?'
mo, don't. What is it you want to
buy, little girl?"
Il don't want to buy nothin'. I'm
just lookin' for the Sanity man of my
street. He" Then Rosie could say
no more. The Jumps would stick in
her throat, no matter how hard she
swallowed.
Just what might have happened is
hard to say, if a lady standing near
hadn't heard what Rosie said and
wanted to help her. She knew exactly
what to do.
An hour later, after seeing Pietro at
his little shop, Rosie rode away with
the lady, who was very beautiful, by
the way, in her big automobile, to the
hospital, where the poor Sanity had
been taken the night before.
It was wondering, curious little
Rosie, who followed her friend down
the long, cool hall to the ward where
the sick Sanity man lay. Timidly she
walked to the mans beside. He saw
her. He held out his hand. Rose
grabbed it and held it close and fast
in her own little hands.
"Oh-I'm so glad you're found. Me
and Pietro love you so much. 1 never

metallic rose is as large as the largest
natural roses and Is set in foliage.
Ribbon in a heavy quality something
over a inch in width is used for max
ing roses. Pinks and reds as like the
natural flowers as possible are chosen.
Hair ornaments are made by wind
ing bonnet wire with satin ribbon in
lengths sufficient to extend twice
across the head from ear to ear. This
covered wire is doubled IN the center
and caught together at the ends hak-
ing q double band. At each end q this
band a ribbon rose is set IN rose
foliage. Ornaments Of this kind make
lovely gifts for young women.

would have found you if the beautiful
lady hadn't"
But Rosie didn't finish the sentence,
for Sanity hadn't heard word she was
saying. He was staring with deep.
, strange eyes at the lady, who had
drawn nearer the sick mans bed.
"Sis," he whispered.
Bob" she answered.
There Rosie sat with shining eyes
and little heart humping and lis
tened to the wonderful story Of her
Sanity man and the lady. Sanity was
none other than the lady's brother
whom she hadn't seen since the day
years and years ago, he ran away to
sea. And the lady? She was the beau
tiful fairy Of the toy-shop.
"And did you know all the time she
owned it?p
''Yes."
Why didn't you go and see herr"
Because I was too poor, sick AMI.
proud"
Now. of course, like all stories where
fairies and Sanity hold forth, every
body was glad and lived happy ever
afterward. It was wonderful day for
Rosie and Pietro.
And up and down Rosie's street, too,
there was gladness; for the good news
had spread to the children. Rosie and
the sparFows told, that the Sanity man
Of their street had found a sister.

EANCY caps, Of many kinds, art
/ among the gifts that may be relied
upon to please those who receive
them. This year they are shown made
for the dancing party, for theater wear,
for skating, and, in greater numbers
still, for breakfast and bedroom wear.
They employ great variety Of mate
rials, the choice depending upon the
purpose that the cap is to serve.
A pretty evening cap, shown in the
picture, is made of silk and bound
with silver braid. A fan of silver
gauze at the side is an unusual orna-
ment, poised like a butterfly near the
face of the wearer, where two tassels
of silver tinseI are suspended. Such a
headdress need not be removed at the
theater or dance and adds a charming
touch of brilliance to the dress.

but this is not durable nor as satisfac-
tory as that Of wire.
To make shades like that shown in
the picture take flowered ribbon or
strips of silk a half-inch wider than
the width of the wire frame. Lay it in
plaits a little less than half inch in
depth, or have it plated on plating
machine Sew one edge of the plated
strip over the top wire of the frame,
crowding the plaits close together. Sew
the other edge over the bottom wire.
Spreading the plaits evenly is neces-
sary. Conceal the sewing and border
the shade at the same time with tin
sci braid in silver or gilt.

Maybe he be sick" said the broth
er, as he busted carefully the array
Of fruit arranged with such a holiday
air in the narrow window of his shop.
"He come if he not sick. You wait,
Sanity man no forget"
But Rosie in spite Of her brothers
encouraging words became very impa-
tient. Finally she started in search of
the kind friend, who was none other
than the Sanity Of her street. Not the
real Sanity of Christmas eve, but man
who Just pretended he was the same
dovial friend Of holly and cheer and
wore cloak and hat Of red, faced with
fur, and carried instead Of long whip
to urge tired reindeer, a sign which
told of a wonderful toyshop just
around the corner.
A week before Pietro had seen from
his little shop windows this same San
ty man stagger and fall. Then both he
and Rosie had helped the stranger into
the fruit shop, where food and sympa-
thy had been generously given. Now,
it was the day before Christmas and
the stranger who each day had stopped
at Pietro's little shop had failed to
appear.
"Maybe-he up the street some
where's" the brother had called to
Rosie. ''When you see heem. tell heem,
tomorrow we look for him to eat with
us. Yes?"
Rosie nodded and went on down the
long avenue. There was a gentle snow
falling, just enough to add to the street
the touch of Christmas. But nowhere
