The little Scotch fishing village OF
Burghead. on the Moray Firth, keeps
up strange survival OF pagan ritual,
the burning of the "Clavie." This is
sort of rude spoked wheel or tub
made from half herring-cask and
half tar-barrel, knocked together
without the use OF a hammer. for
which a smooth stone is substituted.
The blacksmith supplies long nail.
This contrivance is borne flaming
on the shoulders OF succession of
bearers to the town boundaries, and
then to the "Doorie," sort OF stone
altar, on small hill. The "Clavie"
is then smashed and the crowd scram-
bles for the pieces. The custom de-

A collar is a very important feature
in ones dress, as it often makes or
mars a gown. These, of course,
should always be kept fresh and to
do this one needs a large supply, es-
pecially in the summer, when the
heat so quickly willis the delicate
fabrics.
A daintiness that makes it no
less practical may be displayed in
this collar with revers. This pat
tern, 1858, consists of the standing
Mediei which is very becoming 10
most people, and a fiat collar with
revers. These parts may be used
separately or combined TO form d
stylish neckpiece. The Medici collar
should be wired with invisible collar
stays or fine milliner's wire. Dainty.
sheer materials, such as organdte, fine
lawn net and handkerchief linen, are
used for making this style of collar,
the design of which may be developed
in solid work alone or combined with
eyelets. The scalloped edge should be
firmly padded and then worked in
buttonhole-stitch. White or colored
mercerized cotton No. % or 80 should
be used in developing this design.
When using net, do not try to stamp
the design on the material, but baste
the pattern to the net and work over
the paper and net. This gives firm
foundation on which to work, and II

The Lost Chord
Dear Margery Doom

Dear Margery Doom:
will appreciate the courtesy il
you will publish the words of The
Lost Chord" ANXIOUS ALICE.
THE LOST CHORD.
Seated one day at the organ.
! was weary and i'll at ease.
And my fingers wandered idly
Over the noisy keys.
] know not what I was playing
Or what I was dreaming then.
But I struck one chord of music,
Like the sound of a great amen
It flooded the crimson twilight.
Like the close of an angels psalm,
And IL lay on my fevered spirit
With a touch of infinite calm
1t quieted pain and sorrow,
Like love overcoming strife
It seemed the harmonious echo
From our discordant life
It link'd all perpleXed meanings
Into one perfect peace,
And trernbled away into silence,
AS if 1t were 10th to cease.
I have sought, but / seek il vainly,
That one lost chord divine,
Which came from the sound of the
organ,
And entered into mine.
It may be that Deaths bright angel
Will speak In that chord again;
1t may be that only in Heaven
shall hear that great amen.
It may be that Deaths bright angel
VIII speak in that chord again;
It may be that only in Heaven
I shall hear that grand amen.

Physician to the Nursery

When the parents knowledge is in
sufficient, the cooperation of the
physician should be secured; indeed
he ought to play a much more prom
inent part in educational effort than
is usually accorded him. An ounce
of prevention is better than a pound
of cure, says the Mothers Maya
zine. The physician ought to appear
in the role of a counselor and adviser
before disease has a chance to de-
velop rather than in that of a child
healer of neglected trouble. In order
to understand child development and
to recognize diseases in their incipi-
ent stages, one finds frequent exami-
nations and measurements of the
children helpful and necessary.
The hygiene of the nursery is a
fruitful field of study for parents
Proper nutrition and clothing, venti-
lation and lighting, proper seating,
exercise, sense training and mental
regimen-all these things require
careful attention.
Disease, as we have already pointed
out. is often responsible for mental
and physical alterations and defects.

A Cruel Driver
Ny dear Miss Doom

Ny dear Miss Doom
While ] was going TO business
this morning a driver on q meat
truck treated his team of horses
very cruelty. When I told him to
stop lashing the horses he an
swered me in very vulgar man
ner, using profane language. This
is not my first experience of the
kind, and I therefore wish to ask
you what l can do to compel them
to stop this cruelty.
Is there society button, and
where can I get one? MISS r.
To obtain membership in the So
ciety for the Prevention of Cruelty
TO Animals You must send an ap-
plication to the secretary. The ap-
plication must bear the names of
two persons who are well known
to some of the members of the
board of directors. The board will
pass upon the application.
If You are accepted you viii be
required to pay a membership fee
of SO annually.
Badges are issued only to male
members of the society. Women
are permitted to make complaints,
however. 1t has been found that
offenders do not pay very much at
tention to the remarks of women
anent their cruelties, and the soci-
ETY. rather discourages women's ap-
plications for membership on this
sccount, ] am told.

Caring for Silver Hair

The most important point in pre-
serving the color of silver hair lies
in the choice of a suitable shampoo.
For this the whites of three eggs
should be strained from the yolks and
beaten to a stiff froth with three ia
blespoonfuls of warm water, a tea
spoonful of powdered borax, and one
teaspoonful of white soap, very finely
shredded, says the Philadelphia In
quirer. Beat this mixture together
till the soap has dissolved, then add
very little hot water Gust sufficient
to make the mixture warm) and use
to shampoo the head, allowing the
ends of the hair to fall into basin
of hot water. Rinse the hair twice
in soft, warm water, adding a slight
squeeze of the blue-bag to the second
rinsing water.
Silver hair should never be dried
before a fire. as this tends to turn it
yellow. 1t is best, whenever possible,
to allow it to dry in the open air, but
when this cannot be arranged 1t
should be dried by tanning.

and YOU can't stop me from standing
here replied the other, GRIM de-
termined look on his face.
The scene was the deserted wharYes
of the town of Hamlin, South caro-
lima, and the time was late at night
in the month of May. Two brothers,
Tom and Roy Marion, are the only
ones on the scene, and they seem very
absorbed in some matter the
lrift of the thing is as follows; Their
mother had died the year before and
the two brothers had come to i've IN
Hamil with their uncle, William Full
cher, an eccentric old doctor, who old
not treat them as he should. he
seemed to dislike Tom, the younger,
and was always trying to make him
feel uncomfortable. He would never
give Tom all the privileges that Roy
had, and yet Roy was the most dis
satisfied He claimed that he being
eighteen should have a much bigger
allowance, and that his seventeen
year-old brother was given too much.
Unable to have a good time with his
allowance Roy had broken into a
jewelers. and had stolen a box with
four diamonds in it. He had been
seen by his brother, who had chased
him to the wharves, neither aware
that it was their brother. When Tom
saw his brother he was dumfounded,
and this is where the story opens.
Now these two brothers just stood
still and looked into each other S
faces for over a minute, and then
Tom broke the silence of that warm
spring night, ''If you do not give me
that I'll take it, Roy"
"Ho, no." laughed Roy, Isn't he
quite little man now?" At this he
playfully held out the box for Tom
to grasp, and with a sudden rush the
brothers were locked in each other S
arms. Back and forth over the
wharves they struggled, and Roy was
slowly getting the best of his brother
when something happened. Toms
foot slipped. and with a muffied cry
he reached out and caught Roy's arm
for support TO save himself from fall
ing. Roy was mad, and with all his
force he threw his brother off. Tom
hung suspended in the air for mo-
ment, and then pitched headlong into

To Improve Expression
As Well As COMPLEXION

No face is really beautiful that lacks
expression. Do Won realize that con
tinual use of powders and creams tends
to spoil pliancy of skin. and elasticity
of expression? Why not quit cosmetics,
use something better, which won't clog
the pores or make the skin dry, pasty
or oilyY Ordinary mercolized wax acts
quite differently from any cosmetic. II
Wonderfully improves any complexion,
giving 1t life and expression. BY gradu-
ally harmlessly peeling off the thin veil
of surface skin, 1t brings to view a pure,
soft spotless complexion, delicately beau
tiful and youthful. Every druggist has
this wax; 1t is seldom more than an
ounce is needed 1t is spread on nightly
like cold cream and washed off mornings.
In a week or two the transformation is
complete.
Wrinkles do not of course enhance the
expression. Neither do the pasty things
many use to eradicate them. treat

The bathing suit is quite as i'm
portant to the wardrobe. as any other
garment, and deserves as much atten-
ton. Satin is an excellent material,
if good quality is chosen; otherwise
1t will prove entirely unsatisfactory.
For the woman who swims flannel is
a bit too heavy. The most practical
material is a eravenette poplin, which
sheds the watsr and will outwear the
season. A light flannel is better for
one who merely dips in the water
with one hand on the rope, as chill is
very apt to result unless a wool ma
terial is worn. This design, No. 1889,
has a blouse attached to a pair of
dart-fitted boomers closing in the
front, slightly low round neck, and
vest in front. Short sleeves and a
three-piece skirt with a gathered
tunic closing in back complete the
suit.
This garment may be made up in
size Sc with 81 yards of 36-inch ma
terial. The pattern comes in seven
sizes, 80 to Al.
