They were speaking of the great
happiness that blooms around the
banquet board when Thomas J. Pick
EFT, of Palmyra. told of the varied
dinner thrills Of citizen named
Jones.
During a feast given in honor of
a lodge brother no opportunity in
the way OF inspiration was lost to
Jones, and when he started for home,
sweet home he took the trolley tracks
because of their generous dimensions,
and to the midnight world he sweet

On reaching his house, however,
Jones's thoughts took an intellectual
turn. Following the new trend he
lighted every light in the parlor and
sat down in great easy chair to
read. Thus it was that Mrs. Jones
found him a few minutes later and
gently interposed.

around the armholes or sleeves. If a
less elaborate design is desired some
of the motifs may be omitted. These

developed in solid work and eyelets in
fine white mercerized cotton, except
when used to embroider crepe de

be used. The scalloped edge should
be heavily padded so as to give a
firm edge which will keep its shape

garment until after the design has
been stamped and there should be
sufficient material left around the

The red-haired boy grinned and
came over to Davies side of the
street.

front porch of the Dear home.

CHAPTER XXI.
I'm which the Amazing Happens.

CHAPTER ANIL
In which the Amazing Happens.
During the voyage from the Tusket
Islands TO Portland, Tommy had told
Mr.. Hope SO many things about his
early life, and especially about his
long separation from his mother that
his employers interest was deeply
aroused. When the boy spoke OF the
mysterious disappearance OF MS
father Mr.. Hope fell into a KIM OF
reverie and muttered:
"Cast away and lost! cast away
and LOST" 49,
When asked why he repeated these
strange words, he answered, with
faraway look:
Because am cropping like one IN
fog. The fog lifts at Intervals ana
l catch glimpses OF famlllar tnihgS-
hear echoes from a far off past. The
HarpsWell you speak Of lad, l must
have visited in a dream, and your
mother, Annie Dempster-why is It
that nv heart beats so quickly when
ever YOU name her? l have heard
the story of her sad marriage some
where. Did l read it in a book, /
wonder?"
The result of his musings was that
| he determined to visit Annie Defnp-
Ster before ner meeting win hei sun
and hear from her own lips the story
of Tom Dempster's disappearance, in
the hope that she might give him
some clue whereby he could find the
lost man. For he knew that If he
did not undertake the search him
self Tommy would, and so he might
lose the boys services when they
were becoming of inestimable value
to him.
Accordingly, while Tommy was
dressing himself that evening, pre-
paratory to visiting his mother Mr..
Hope stole out of the hotel where he
and the boy were staying and made
his way to the Deans's house. He
was admitted by the same pert little
maid who on a previous occasion
had opened to Tommy, but this time
the dignified appearance of the
strange caller commanded her re-
spect so instead of bidding him Ego
to the back door she ushered him
into the parlor.

Dear Margery Doom;
Is it proper and necessary to
wear a hat to an evening wedding
in an Episcopal church Is it quite
proper to keep the hat on at recep-
ton afterward, and could white
winter hat be worn with low-out
evening gown? Thanking you.
UNCERTAIN.
1t is customary in all Episcopal
churches for women to wear a head
covering of some sort, no matter
what the occasion. An evening nat
appropriate for the occasion will be
perfectly proper at the reception
following.

Orange Stain on Blue Messaline

Dear MISS Doom:
Could you please tell me what
would take orange stains out. of a
light blue messaline dress without
harming the dress? Thanking you,

Spread the stained portion of the
dress over a bowl and apply boiling
water from a kettle held high
enough to permit the stream to
strike with force. If the stains are
obstinate spread a little borax over
them, then pour on the water.
If the dress is expensive and the
spots are large l would advise you
to take it to a cleaner. as this
method is liable to leave a ring.
