Truly the redingote idea has developed
many variations. Here is one of the
newest and the prettiest. 1t gives open
fronts with a narrow vest that is designed
for contrasting material, and finished
with high collar that is modification
OF the military style. Made as it is here,
with sleeves to match the vest and skirt,
it is exceedingly smart but this season is
primarily one of variety and the sleeves
could match the redingote while the vest
matched the skirt or the vest and collar
could be of fancy material when plain ma
tcrial is used for the main portion OF the
frock, or both redingote and skirt could
be of the same material. Available fab
RIGS include wool and silk and linen and
cotton. Gabardine and charmeuse satin
are the materials illustrated. Broadcloth
would be pretty in place of the gabardine
for the wool frock. Cotton materials arc
really wonderful and for cotton frock,
colored pique could be used with white
TO make charming effect, ,'or lowered
crepe could be used for the redingote with
plain for the skirt and sleeves.
In the medium size the rediugotc will
require 4 yards of material ~ inches
wide. 24 yards SO or a., and the skirt,
vest and sleeves 4 yards ~, 3 yards SO

Feeling that she owed il to the donor

she supposed was going to be very
dry task. Here is the confession she
made to me:
Il found as thrilling a romance. as

my favorite best sellers had ever
given me. Then, too, j discovered a
real philosophy back of the story.

architecture, the history of the church,
the dresses and customs of the fif-
teenth century, and the chronicles of
Margaret of Flanders. And I give you
my word that 1 found reading the

to know what to read. Cast about in
your mind for something in which YOU
are interested-for every thinking
human being has surely one major in
terest and several minor ones. Sup
pose YOU like music. Go to the nearest
public library station and ask for sug

Even If your interest is merely in

find yourself delighted by the wonder

or by the magnificent capacity for

In all OF life there is interest. In
all sorts of writing there is the ele-

There are no more splendid his

If you have ever listened to a really
brilliant and charming man talking,
YOU have undoubtedly thrilled respon-

the same stimulation.
Reading worthwhile books will

yourself too. 1t will keep you from
boredom and from slipping back mem

when you get into the swing of learn
ing through your amusements than
does the hot water diet of reading

your own thoughts through the
thoughts of others. Doesn't it sound
tempting? TRY il.

TEN YEARS IN PRISON
FOR ATTACK ON CHILD
Henry Davis, Convicted of Attempt
ed Assault, Is Seventy-Seven
Years Old.

Henry Davis. seventy-seven years
old, was sentenced today by Chief Jus.
tice Covington to serve ten years II
the penitentiary. Davis was convicted
Of an attempted criminal assault on 8
girl seven old. An appeal was noted
to the Court of Appeals.
The chief justice took occasion te
explain the Nervousness of the crime
of which the man had been convicted
calling 1t little less than murder"
He took into consideration, the court
said, the advanced age of the prisoner
and desired it understood that a term
of ten years by no means represented
the view of the court as the measure
of punishment which would be inflicted
on a younger man convicted Of SINH
lar charge. The court expressed re-
greet that the prisoner might not out
live the sentence, but said he felt it
his duty to impose a sentence of that
length for the crime.
Assistant United States Attorney
Hawken conducted the prosecution and
Attorney H. l. Quinn appeared for the
defense.
