HAD OLD LADY'S GRATITUDE
Stories Boy Had Absorbed May Have
Been Inventions, but She Was
Satisfied.

1t was On a Wade Park ar, on the
line of 40 angles. and it happened but
a day or two ago.
A boy OF perhaps fourteen suddenly
arose from his seat and gave 1t to a
stout lady. The stout lady looked up
at him.
You're a polite lad" she said. Few
boys nowadays would do the like"
Il guess you didn't read yesterdays
paper" said the boy. There's a story
about a boy who gave up his seat in a
street car to a lady, and when she died
last week she left him $1,000"
Il didn't see it." said the lady.
Maybe you saw the one about the
boy who carried the old woman's bas
ket and she gave him a brick house
and a moving picture theater?"
NO" said the lady; Il didn't see
that one either"
There was another one" the lad
went on, about the boy who had a
lower berth in tn sleepin' car an gave
it to a sick lady an she left him all
her fortune. | don't know how much
1t was, but it must have been an awful
lot. You see how 1t is-you can't af-
ford to risk any Chances"
The lady solemnly nodded her head.
BLESSINGS ca the man who @invents
those stories,' she solemnly said

millinery FOR MEN
The Headgear of Nuts" in Brit.
ish East Africa.
Natives Arc Extremely Vain; and as
Hats Form Chief Article Of Attire,
They Display Great ingenuity
In Adjoining Them.

London.-it is not only in Bond
street and other haunts Of fashion
that feathered millinery is the order
of the day. 1t would almost seem as
if the big Paris and London milliners
had taken a trip to British East At
RIGA and evolved the latest styles from
a study OF the native headgear.
The natives there are extremely
vain, and since hats form the chief
article Of their attire, they display
great ingenuity in adjoining them. II
the results are not strictly beautiful,
they are at least striking.
Some of the he%addresses are made
out of ~gaZelle skins and trimmed with
hawks feathers, others encircle the
face something after the style of e
nuns headdress, but perhaps the one
with the long, upright feather most
nearly resembles the millinery Of the
moment at home.
But whereas in England it is the
women who spend feverish hours and
enormous sums Of money in the desire
to obtain something really chic, in
British East Africa it is the men who
take SO much pains over their person
al appearance. Far from adjoining
themselves, the women are actually
compelled to make themselves as un-
attractive as possible.
1t may be that their lords and mas.
tiers can fiaunt their own finery with
more effect If the other sex Is unbe.
comingly CARRIED, or perhaps they fear
that the East African women may
outstrip them in appearance if allow.
ed a free hand In the matter of at.
tire.
One shudders to consider what con.
s~ternation would ensue were such a
policy suggested in England today
Women have for SO long had the
monopoly of frills and furbelows that
many Of them would find their days
empty and shorn of interest were
there no pilgrimages to the diapers
and no consultations with dressmak
ers and milliners.
AS for deliberately making them
selves unattractive, it is doubtful.
