: II 1t be urged that the present fash
ions in women's dress contribute tc
their comfort and ease of motion
then, observe the current writer, by
all means let the women keep the
modes they have, says the Indianap
oils Star. 1t is impossible that the
present bizarre types of dress, with
their extreme cut, should persist, nor
indeed, is it believable that some Of
the daring designs in dress-more
often described as worn in Paris OF
New York than seen on the streets
Of inland cities-are really comfort
able for the wearer, although each
style has that defense. But in the
subsidence from the novelties of the
will come new types of feminine wear
really more comfortable than any that
have gone before, and altogether more
artistic than the modes of two decades
OF even a decade ago, Beautiful
dress, like all else that is beautiful
must answer the inexorable tenets OF
abstract art, which are that, along
with conveying pleasure to the eye,
the gown must be comfortable. Nc
dress, however gorgeous its trimmings
or its material, or however daring the
conceit Of its fashioning, is really
pretty If it looks like an encasement
rather than habit. Therein lies the
| infinite superiority of the flowing
robes of ancient Greece and Rome to
the stiff garment of the medieval pc
riod, OF Elizabethan times, the infiu
ence of which prevailed, in modifica
tions. until the grandmothers of the
present generation saw their hoops
safely discarded after the Civil war.

CHAPTER THIRTY.

"A MY sleep that night was much
VF troubled by dreams. 1t was
the same dream as before,
again and again repeated-the dream
of frozen regions and of the great ice
barrier and then of the broken pen.
When ] awoke IN the hazy light Of
the dawn | thought of what tie Pope
had said about beginning my wedding
day with penance and communion, so
rose at once TO go to church.
The dawn was broadening, but the
household was still asleep, only the
servants in the kitchen stirring when
| stepped through a side door, and set
out across the fields.
The dew was thick on the grass,
under the gloom of a heavy sky the
day looked cold and cheerless. A
wind from the southeast had risen
during the night. the sea was white
with breakers. and from st. Mary's
Rock there came the far-off moaning
of surging waves.
The church, too, when reached It,
looked empty and chill. The sacris-
tan in the dim choir was arranging
lilies and marguerites about the high
altar, and only one poor woman. with
a little red and black shawl over hei
head and shoulders was kneellng in
the side chapel where Father Dan
was saying mass, with a sleepy little
boy In clogs to serve him.
The woman was quite young. al
most as young as myself, but she was
already a widow, having lately lost
her husband "at the herrings" some
where up by Stornoway, where he had
gone down in a gale, leaving her with

and his affection for me, and his de-
sire to see me good and happy, to in
terVene with my father and the
Bishop, even at this late hour. and
at the church door itself to stop the
ceremony.
1t was late before I finished, and
thought the household was asleep, but
just as | was coming to an end
heard my father moving in the room
below, and then a sudden impulse
came TO me, and with a new thought
| went downstairs and knocked at
his door.

He was sitting in his shirt sleeves

was propped up against two ledgers

Father Dan occupied on the night OF

of his nose aside between the tips of
his left thumb and first finger

TWENTY NINTH CHAPTER.

TCoULD not do as Father Dan ad-
vises, being now enmeshed in the
threads Of innutnerable impulses
unknown to myself, and therefore
firmly convinced that Martins story
was not only true, but a part of the
whole sordid business whereby a
husband was being bought for me.
With this thought 1 went about all
day, asking myself what l could do
even yet, but finding no answer until
9 o'clock at night when, Immediately
after supper Eve lived country fash
ion), Aunt Bridget said:
Now then, off to bed, girls Ev-
erybody must be stirring early in the
morning"
Never had I written such a letter
before. I poured my whole heart on
to the paper, saying what marriage
meant to me, as the Pope himself had
explained it, a sacrement implying
and requiring love as the very soul
of it, and since l did not feel this
love for the man l was about to
marry, and had no grounds for think
ing he felt it for me, and being sure
that other reasons had operated to
bring us together l begged Father

postpone our marriage.
And first my father seemed unable
to believe his own ears.
Postpone? Now? After all this
money spent? And everything signed
and sealed and Witnessed"
yes, if you please, sir, be-
l got no farther, for fiinging down
his razor my father rose in a tower
ing rage.
Are you mad? Has somebody
been putting the evil eye on you?
The greatest match this island has
ever seen, and you say postpone-put
it off, stop it, that's what you mean.
Do you want to make a fool of a
man? At the last moment, too. Just

Ny father, in his great excitement,
was breaking with whitening scorn
into his native speech.

OFF WITH THE OLD LOVE.
Dear Miss Fairfax:

l am eighteen and have been
keeping company with a young
man for the past year and half.
l am only finding out now that
we can not agree and 1 am not
sure whether love him or not.
He had a friend who asked me
to go with him about two weeks
ago. and then I thought I was too
young and told him so. Since
then he has not paid much atten-
ton to me, as he knows | am
going with his friend.
Now that am older, I feel sure
/ love this young man better than
the one l am going with.

Remember the adage, "Off with the
old love before you are on with the

You will do both him and yourself ar

feeling as you do. Their

over girls who are honest and true, tc

BEYOND SUGGESTION.

Dear Miss Fairfax:
l am twenty-one, and in love
with a young girl of eighteen,
who has declared her love for me,
but we can not agree because of
the difference in our religion, she
being a Catholic, and very relig-
ious, while [ am a Jew, and not
religious. She insists that she
can not give up her religion.
Would you advise me to drop
her, or wait until she is older?
FRANK.
A question of difference in creed is
too serious for any third party to
settle.
AS a general rule. the man gives up
his church, for the reason that a
woman's church means more to her

in haste, remembering that 1t is Sc
