pleated flounces are splendid to wear
with thin frocks- The texture is so
close, that there isn't the slightest
chance Of the wearer's figure being sill
hCuetted in the sun.
Drop skirts for cloth suits are, OF
course, more moderate in width, meas
ur=ng from two TO Three and a half
yards. Here, taffeta predOminates. and
as in the suit itself. blue is the lead
ing color, although there re some
white taffetas and Dolly Warden ef-
fects. which bid fair to be extremely
popular during the summer. Ruchings
and pinked ruffles are the two modes
or trimming. II is surprising how
many designs can be accomplished with
these. a taffeta skirt OF the deep
Rocky mountain blue shows an odd
effect in the ruching which is placed
Zigzag fashion in the center of the
1Ounce- Others have the ruchings in
straight rows. and the pinked ruffles
are put on in the zigzag manner or
draped like garlands, on the low. er
skirt.
Many of the stores display these
skirts with brassieres, the tighter the
better, no doubt for contrast or per-
chance because there is so much new
IN brassiere fashions. It is interest
ing TO note that the 'front.' closings have
completely replaced the old crossed-in-
the-back styles, which at best were i'll
fitting, uncomfortable garments. Above

The allegation that prohibition is
detrimental TO labor is utterly without
foundation. In 1910. there were invest

United States S77LO00.000 employing
about 1900 persons If the rate of in

holds to date. there are now invested
in the manufacture of liquor about
SL1O0.0O0,000 employing about 10000
persons. or 81 people employed per mil

all Of the industries Of the United

CHAPTER XIV

~ y
T + Isabel Hamilton was conscious Of
a momentary sense of qualification
in turning his own phrases back
upon her husband. her pleasure was
short lived When John had left the
room she proceeded to undress, and as
she removed one garment after another,
her self satisfaction seemed to slip
from her with her clothing. When she
was ready for bed, she lay down with
the uncomfortable idea that she had
put herself in wrong. That was always
the way she quarreled with John, she
unused. Tonightsit was especially true,
for she had not told him that she
knew he was keeping the truth from
her, therefore he could not know what
had embittered her and made her ir-
ritable- So he had good cause to con-
slider her unreasonable and 10 be veXed
with her.
A singular trait of human character
is that one who has detected another
in a falsehood always wants that other
10 know that his deception had been
discovered. Perhaps q secret longing
for revenge produces this desire Not
long ago 1 heard a woman say
I wish that man knew that know
he has been untruthful TO me l would
feel so much better satisfied
When the deceiver is ones best be-
loved, there is mingled with this sen
satiOn a subtle hope that the dear one
can explain away the cloud Of sus-
picion. Both of these emotions drove
Isabel Hamilton at last to an impul-
sive decision Sitting up in bed, she
called her husband.

newspaper in his hand-'I want to talk

was evident that he was still dispIeased

He dropped the paper upon the floor

himself in time.) Now, my dear wife,

His words did not move her, but his
hand laid on hers and his gentle tone
unlocked the flood gates Of her re-

happy because you will not be frank

Helen said nothing more. but the
words sank deep IF Warren had any
trouble that he was trying TO bear alone
there was ample excuse for his short
replies and his gruff manner. She had
thought over it far into the night and
had slept late that morning in conse-
quence- She thought of this now and
resolved TO try and help Warren as
much as she could At least. if he
weren't willing for her TO help share

Helen even bought a little box of cher

Helen turned back TO her breakfast as

A choking sob was rising in her throat,

Helen was always in hot water lately.

Housing Accommodation,

Dublin, Nay 2s.-The decline OF pig breed
ing in Ireland. states a report from tbs
Irish department OF agriculture. Is due in
large part TO the want OF housing accommO-

and the growing disinclination o. laborers'
families TO look after them The shrinkags
in the number OF pigs amounts TO 20 per
cent
In Ulster, the report states, It IS the
practice to fatten pigs as soon as they are
weaned. and by this means three lots Of
pigs are turned out IN a year In other
parts OF the country only one lot IS mar
