But, daddy, how car that be her voice if she isn't there?" asked Jack.
"Perhaps-just perhaps-that noise is only the echo' said daddy.
How did she lose her homer asked Evelyn.
I'm tell you about it" said daddy. You see this fairy lived at the bottom
Of the sea in the most beautiful coral grove Imaginable. There we're many
shells there, each inhabited by other fairies. OF course there was the
biggest she'll If ALL which ws the palace of the fairy queen. This fairy was
caIed Fairy Silver Spray, and she wa given this beautiful shell of her own
Fairy Queen Natie made only n request when she gave this beautiful
sahny shiny shell to Fairy Silver Spray, and that was that Fairy Silver spray
should never go away from home without leaving some one there to keep
even for a moment the house would float away and never be heard Of again.
Fairy Silver Spray obeyed her queens directions or ever and ever so
long. She kept her home bright and shining, and it grew to look more like a
big Jewel every day, and every time she went o a ball OF a party d would
leave a little brown gnome to keep house for her.
But day Fairy Silver Sprays curiosity got the better OF her. A
school of singing fishes as forming just outside her house. and the fairy
bearing the peculiar noises. wa wild to hear What was going I.
But the little brown gnome was away that day. Silver Spray listened
and listened to the noise for a long time and then ventured to the edge Of the

NEW FABRICS FOR
WINTER COSTUMES
FABRIC TRIMS FABRIC
The Touch of a Flower
The Touch of a Flower


| Upon new creations but upon hospital
supplies.
AS Americans would probably be
the greatest buyers, If not the only
ones, during this period of war, the
dressmakers in Paris quickly changed
their models to suit the American
trade.
The skirts, though wider are not as
voluminous as a few years ago. They
are cut circular and fit closely about
the hips, fiaring at the ankles. They
are very short, at least five or six
inches from the floor. Some of the
new tunics are cut with a deep point
front and back. This is a very be-
coming length of tunic for the woman
who is seeking to accentuate her
height.
The Moyen Age frock is having a
tremendous vogue. Many of the
autumn models hang straight from the
shoulder to the hem without a visible
waistline. Some have a broad flat
| belt. and others have sashes which tie
in a pinafore bow at the back.
The redingote effect is given many
of the long-waisted frocks. One dress
of dark taupe %broadcloth is here il
Illustrated. The waist is of the short
basque variety, with plain short
sleeves. A tunic, which does not meet
in the front, is worn over a black satin
skirt. The girdle is of the same ma
terial as the dress, and tunic and
meets in the back, where it is fastened
with snappers placed underneath the
~cloth-covered buttons. A pointed
collar and pointed cuffs of the satin
complete the dress.
This is indeed a lace season and for
evening dresses and for afternoon
dresses it is used extensively. 1t forms
| overdresses for frocks of charmeuse
and satin; at times it is only the tunic,
or it may be but the bodice of a dress.
The margot edged craquele net is very
smart and effective The evening
gown illustrated has a surplice bodice
of this craquele net with the margot
edge, and a %craquele net yoke. The
skirt is of pink satin with overskirt
Of lace. Around the waist is worn a
wide sash of silver gauze ribbon which
ties at a low waistline in the back.
The practical evening wrap of black
velvet which is worn with this cos
tune is called the Norma Wanna cape
alter Cu0 play WIlLlSu ny NdcIcl lllCh.
The collar is of Persian lamb and the
cape is lined throughout with a rich
Natter blue satin. The lining of
capes and wraps this year is an i'm
|portant feature of the garment. Won
derful %brocades, figured crepe de
chine, MORE, satin and taffeta are all
used.
For evening capes and wraps there
are exquisite metal brocades from six
teen dollars a yard up, which are both
effective and beautiful. These are
trimmed with collars of ermine, mink,
sable, beaver or kolinsky, the latter
is a northern Russian or Siberian
mink. Among other materials used
for these wraps are Ottoman failfe silk
which comes in rich designs, futurist
in their coloring and outline. One
stunning coat made of this silk had an
allover figure that at a distance re-
minded one of Chinese designs, and
the effect was heightened by the
shape of the cape which Vas not I'm

tons committee, of which Senator
Kenyon of Iowa is a member, has re.
ceived more than forty kilograms and
letters of protest, from all over the
country, against any delay of action
on the Norris resolution of inquiry in
to the cost of the Roger Sullivan and
Senator Penrose primary campaigns.
These kilograms have come largely
from members of the direct legislation
and primary reform movement, af6liat-
ed in a bulletin just issued by the U.
league. They were solicited by a cir.
cular letter issued by this organization
through Judson King, it's secretary.
The circular declared that the senate
committee was temporizing with the
Sullivan and Penrose issue.
Some of the big eastern apers are
now getting into the fight, and it is
announced that the two largest papers
in Philadelphia and one of the largest
in Chicago will be arrayed against the
two nominees.
Senator Penrose has ignored the at.
tack thus far, and probably will con
tinue the same policy.
