MUTTON MARKET WEAKER.
Courtesy OF The Journal)

PORTLAND, Ore, May 22.-Fur-
ther depression is showing in the NUT
ton trade at North Portland. There
was another liberal run overnight
and killers ideas were generally low
er. They were not bidding above
$500 for best lamb offerings, which
is fully Csc lower than former prices.
The general mutton trade is de-
pressed with butchers holding rather
fair supplies In their nearby feed lots.
For that reason additional offerings
are purchased only when secured at
lower values.
General mutton market range:
Best shorn yearlings. ..$485@ 90
Shorn wethers ..... 4.65
Best shorn ewes ....... 425@4.50
Light spring lambs ..... 6.60@6.75
Heavy spring lambs -. 6.25@6.50
Hog Market is Steady.
While a few hogs were sold in the
local yards at 1895 this morning. no
account of such sale is being taken by
the trade generally because it does
not represent the actual trend OF the
trade. General market conditions for
hogs are steady with tops ruling ar
ound $S.20@S 25 in the North Port
land trade.
General hog market range:.
Best light, 200 lbs. $500 @8.25
Medium .............. S.10@S.15
Heavy ........... 500
Fat pigs ........ 75O@7.75
Bull Day In the Yards.
It was bull day in the cattle yards
at North Portland. This is really no
joke, for a large percent Of the offer
ing consisted of bulls which sold
rather well considering the general
state OF the cattle trade. Tops sold as
high as 1915 during the morning.
There was only a small supply OF
cattle available in the yards over
night and the general trend of the
trade is unchanged at former figures.

Clara had run down the steps, leav-
ing the swing vibrating somewhat jerk
lily from the speed of her abandonment
of it, declaring that she wished to get
sight of the elder Mr.. Wallace, even
If he did not choose to stop and talk
when he came up. She had noted that

son approach. had already started his
engine Her desertion left Broadway
and Josie in the swing alone together.

Josie smiled Yes; noticed that"
Jackson was strangely intent upon
her answer He was confused, although
he did not know the reason why. And
then suddenly, he knew. Finding that
he knew, he found himself still more
confused.
did you notice it?" he asked, with
intense earnestness, knowing, some
how, that he was an ass. Il didn't
think you noticed it,
Josie thrilled, but found it hard to
smother laughter-not wholly that of
ridicule, mostly that of joyousness. She
made no other answer.

IF you are fretting your mind in try
! ing to make decision as to what
sort of hat you will have for midsum-
mer, let it rest upon one similar in
general style to the two pictured here.
Have the prettiest. most becoming
and most fascinatingly feminine of all
millinery, with laces and flowers and
ribbons making up confection to be
worn upon the head For the mid
summer hat will sit at the top notch Of
style when it is means Of wearing
a good-sized bouquet fastened to a
fair head at some slightly dashing
angle.
Roses and small flowers in the nat
ural sizes, the lilac and the violet,
forget-me-not, heliotrope, and heather,
and small daisies betoken the love
for garden flowers which lies in the
mind of many wearers of flower hats.
But the flower hat bedecks itself with
flowers common and uncommon. From
the yellow field daisy to the most un-
usual orchid, like and unlike their
prototypes, everything in flowers is
fashionable
One of the hats shown here is a
round crown covered with maline, in
brown, of the shade Of it's wearer's
hair. Over the crown brim is slipped,
covered in the same way as the crown.
1t is narrow at the right side, widens
and flares up at the left. A fine ma
chine-made lace is laid smoothly over

What do you know about the life I've
been living?" he demanded.
She was not in the least suspicious.
Il mean in New York-that great, big.
wonderful place! 1t is a wonderful
place, isn't it
He had had thrill of panic. Now
he quieted, although his heart still
throbbed little. He was glad she did
not know about the life he had been
leading.
Have you never been to New
York;" he asked.
Never"
That's funny. Would you like to go
to New York;"
'T don't think I'd like to live there;

THE shoes of today distinguish their
i American makers, for they are
brilliant achievements in the realm
of footwear. When one considers that
the fashionable shoe is wide of the
mark in shape when it comes to fol-
lowing the natural lines of the foot,
and yet Is comfortable, it is possible
to realize something of the ingenuity
which is demonstrated in its making.
The most popular shoe for ordinary
wear, the neatest and most shapely,
is the Colonial Pump, like that shown
in the picture. 1t is developed in
many different styles and combina-
tions of feathers or of leather AID
fabrics. These embody the patent
er leather or of plain or brocadeG fab
rics. Contrasting color is used in the
quarters sometimes; light gray or
white, and light tan are among the
more pleasing effects.
The pumps are fastened apparent
yer filigree or enamel. Pumps for
evening wear are often made with
vamp of satin and quarter of patent
calfskin, with finish of rhinestone
buckles or ornaments. The pump
shown here is ideal in style and may
be considered a criterion by which to
measure others.
There is almost as great variety
in ties as in pumps. They are shaped
The Prince George's enquirer and southern Maryland advertiser. (Upper Marlborough, Md.) 1882-1925, 1914-05-15

on much the same lines and made OF
the same materials. For semi-dress
and for dancing shoes they insure
clever effects. The style of the tie
indicates small rhinestone ornaments
and buckles, and these one finds upon
them. The tango tie, with ribbon lace,
shown in the picture, is a conception
in ties that could hardly be excel1ed
for beauty.
In many of the pumps and ties the
buckles or ornaments are placed at
the sides. The effect is elegant. A
simpler tie is shown in the third fig
ure, very quiet in design and graceful
in shape 1t is furnished with patent
colt vamp and black brocaded quar
ters. 1t has a lightweight sole. easy
for dancing and a new Spanish heel
fiattering to the foot.
American women grow more exact
ing with each season in the matter OF
footwear. And American manufac.
turers keep up with all these demands
and foster others, in fact, create them,
by showing marvels of fine finish and
elegant taste in shoes. In this partic
ular article we excel all other people
in clothing the feet of the moderns
and the civilized, appropriately.
Now we are beginning to depart
from black and to insist upon clean
streets, that lighter colors may walk
without becoming too soon begrimed.

FAULT IN AMERICAN VOICE
Touch of Harmony Does Not Seem to
Be There, as 1t is With Other
Races.

The American voice lacks cadence.
The touch of harmony is lacking. In
depth or shrillness, its strongest quail
ity is monotony of tone.
In conversation it IS colorless, and
half of the resources of the vocal
cords are unused or undeveloped. A
strident, high-pitched, nasal voice fails
in saying any good thing well.
Every one has the power of speak
ing with sweet infection. Every one
can attain a reposeful utterance and
clear enunciation by training the ear
and voice to work together in avoid
ing harsh tones, and cultivating the
middle and more mellow register in
every voice.
Excitement sends 1t up to a scream
ing pitch, but self-control will lower it
again, and its playground should be
through the varying harmonies or ca
dence Of five notes.
According to Thomas Wentworth
Higginson. our English cousins put

up to her friend, Mary Abby Thomas,
at the end of dramatic account OF
her ten days sotourn in Manhattan.
"No, nor even humanity accommodate

ed, firmly; they're plain stuck-up."
How so?" inquired Mary Abby,
with eager interest.
In more ways than one, but one'll
do" Mrs. Bates answered, with dig
nifty her long, thin cheeks flushing as
with some poignant recollection. The
last morning but one before we left,
as Hiram and I were starting out for

The crown here is of leghorn with

The lower crown (or bandeau) of the
first hat is trimmed with velvet rib

shading off to very light tint. Deef
cream roses, with pink hearts. and
natural colored silk wheat, are placed
in groups about the brim, with one
cluster at the base Of the plume OF

The second hat is trimmed with
silk roses in yellowish pink. They are
marvels of delicate coloring, with the
shadings and even the veins of the
natural petals simulated in the half
opened buds. The foliage also in
dark, glossy green is made with low
ing fidelity to nature.

these hats may be regarded as cri
terions. They are not merely modish.
but the mode.

CHAPTER xIII-Continued.

That's what I've come here to find
out. l want to find out what the devil
Is the matter with you.''
Broadway had heard the voices, Mrs
Spotswood had conveyed the news to
him, and now he himself hurried down
the steps.
Have your father come right inside
Bob" he urged, land make himself at
home"
He went on to the elder Wallace
holding out his hand, and then, when
It was not seized eagerly, gripping
earnestly for Wallace's.
"By gracious, I'm awfully glad to
see you! Bob has spoken of you SO
often and told me SO much about you
as well as he does"
The elder Wallace showed no an.
swering enthusiasm. He only tried to
get his hand away from Broadway s
cordial grasp.
did you know he was coming?'
Broadway demanded of the visitors

No"
"Oh, a little surprise, Ell? Well, Just
in time for dinner! Come along inside
and meet the folks. Having a bully
time, aren't we, Bob?"
Yes; fine This is Jackson Jones

answered dryly.

we're going to get better acquainted
aren't we. Come inside
No, thank you I'd like to speak to
my son alone, if you have no objec
tions."
'Oh, why, of course"
AS Wallace turned away Broadway
had chance to whisper in Bob's ear:
Anything wrong?"
''It will be all right. Don't worry"
Well" said Broadway cordially. as
the father and son began to move in
silence toward the gate, 'I'll expect
you in as soon as you're through with
your little talk. Well wait dinner for
YOU"
You needn't bother, SIR said Gro.

"Oh it's no bother at all I'm only too

know what he wants.
The elder Wallace looked at him for
scant two seconds with glance
which indicated that he thought him
far too unimportant to receive more
copious attention Then he turned
severely to his son.

He looked around them at the broad
veranda, with it's pillared, old colonial
doorway and wide windows; his eyes
paused along the visible front of the
enormous house itself, surveyed the
spreading lawn, now dusky with the
evening shadows Of magnificent old
trees, and the curving graveled drive,
examined all, indeed, that he could seq
of the superb and spacious old Jones
place.
Nice little house, isn't it," he
asked.
"Oh, just love it," It was, indeed
the show place of the town, and few
were the local maidens who had not
dreamed dreams of some time living in
mansion like it-dreamed wonder
ing dreams. speculative of unguessed
sensations of vast wealth.

why, yes. Don't you?"

shocked him fiercely. He sat up in
the swing and gazed at her with out
thrust neck-that gesture which she
thought was awkward, funny, wheL
she saw 1t first, in school days, but
