low neck is finished with fold Of
chiffon.
This is pleasing gown, simple in
outline and in decoration. The dis
tinctly new feature in 1t is the en-
ployment of rows OF beads for the
trimming and the bead strands as a
support for the side draping. The
wide hem in place of the regulation
threeinch hem is noticeable also in
the underskirt.
The design is suited also to the
many pretty voiles, challies and crepes
that are to be bought in such variety
and at such low prices. And with
some modification of the bodices this
dress may be suited to almost any age.
The hair ornament pictured with u

of marabou feathers. Satin slippers
and silk hose, matching the gown in
color, make the completion of the toi-

slippers in black and bronze that are

gown. JULIA BoTToMLEY.

FIRMLY BELIEVES IN FAIRIES
Donegal Farmer Accepts Loss of Saw

Nobody ever drove the fairies out of
Ireland, and nobody ever will. for that
matter The Emerald isle is sans
snakes, but not sans the wee folk"

who reward good and punish evil with
quite as much avidity as they did
hundreds Of years ago
The little folks, whom the more
stolid Britishers insist are but crea-
lures of Celtic Imagination, are pc
culiar elves. Few there are who
have seen them. and the fey have
done SO only when the moon was in
the right phase or on some holiday
in the elfdom when, the legend goes,
the fairies are visible 10 mortal eyes
and even may be captured il you but
snip their shadows.
Aud sod Irish-many Of them
are firm in the faith that the wee
folk" forecast joys and sorrows and
that they keep away the wicked ban
shee and otherwise protect the house
hold of their fayorites. When Michael
McFaul, farmer of Clonmany. Coun-
ty of Donegal. missed recently from
its hiding place some s1,50O he had
saved as a preliminary to embarking
upon the sea Of matrimony. he never
once doubted but that the incident
was warning from wee folk that
they did not look kindly upon his
suit
The police, however, were less in
olined TO the theory Of eldsh warn
ing and when young woman EN-
pluyed at the McFaul household tried
In neighb0ring village to cash some
large bank notes, she was arrested
and convicted of the theft.
The McFauls refuse to accept the
loss in other than philanthropic
mood, and still believe the little folks
Of the wood chose that manner of ex-
pressing disapproval of marriage
which would bring no happiness to
