bies She had invited Little Brown Bear.
Mrs. Sparrow and her children, White
Rabbit. Bob White Quail, Blind Mr.. and
Mrs Mole and all the blind baby moles,
and the Frogs that lived at the edge CT
the pond. And she asked them all not to
tell anyone where they were going.
Little Brown Bear did not mean to tell
But as he was going to the party he
happened to meet Mr.. Blacksnake.
Don't you wish you could go with
ne?" said Mr.. Blacksnake, darting under
the bushes that grew so near the ground
that Little Brown Bear could not follow
him.
Don't you wish you could go with
me?" answered Little Brown Bear. 81

Mouse's and you are not invited" and
Little Brown Bear hurried on to the
party.
The guests at the party danced about
in the sunshine and the ten baby field
mice played tag with each other, and
everyone had a very good time. After
they were all .ired of playing Gray Mrs.
Field Mouse said it was time for refresh
ments and led them to Il clear space be-
hind some bushes where she had spread
out seeds and berries and twigs and
ieaves-a very fine feast indeed. All the
animals were so hungry after their play
that they began to cat as fast as they
could and no one thought OF danger un-

The Horse show.
Rain greeted the opening of this unique
horse show-unique because all the pro-
ceeds are to go to the Red and White
Cross societies. Therefore the old Gar
den was not so crowded on the first two
days as II usually is. and the showing Of
clothes was not so brave. Moreover. not
so many representatives of the smart
world have taken boxes as usual. Never
theless, II Is expected that later in the
week the garden will be thronged with
smart women. Mr.. Mclean, of Washing
ton, is coming over to see some Of his
horses exhibited later on, and doubtless
many fashionable Washington folk will
manage to witness this latest effort of
society to help the war sufferers.
To go back to the stucco gowns. there
are some attractive blouses Of sand and
putty chiffon and crepe de chine that are
worn with covert cloth suits and with
dark and black suits as we'll To many
eyes the blouse of the same shade as the
covert suit is more effective than the
white one. At all events. these new put
ty and sand blouses are as pretty as they
are novel Some Of them are embroidered
in self-tone silk. some are trimmed with
coffee-dipped lace, and some are trimmed
with brown fur.

Without question, the women are
shopping noticeably earlier this year than
ever before" said z. c. owen, manager
of the Hotel Powhatan, yesterday.
There Is a large increase IN the pack

that the Christmas shopping has already

I'VE have a number of out-of-town

also know" Mr.. Owen continued, that
much Of the Christmas shopping is sent
directly from the stores, as many OF them
are making a feature OF packing and
shipping free Of charge anywhere in the
United States simply TO encourage women
to shop early.
I'VE also see little indication of busi-
ness depression. The amounts OF the bills
and the number of purchases indicate
strongly that buying Is being done on a
large and generous scale" Mr.. owen de-
clared.

The M0noith,
45 w. 34th St, New York.
The new boudoir caps and negligees OF
black and white are truly lovely. and
they have been accepted by women OF
fashion. They are made of black and
white chiffon and crepe de chine and
tulle, with black chantilly lace for trim
ming, and sometimes white fur added.
The caps especially are decidedly becom-
ing. with their black dignity relieved by
much white frilling and frou-frou.
Black lingerie is worn with these neg
ligees-black and white, that is to say
in the guise Of combinations and slips.
But here an odd habit of women-men,
too. for the matter OF that-to draw the
line at trihes comes in. Women wear
and like these boudoir garments of black
and white. But they refuse to wear black
and white nightgowns. And one shop
that had ordered a goodly supply of these
striking garments now has a force Of
girls ripping OF all the black and leavins

gown which. 1t seems, is more to the
liking of the women who buy.
