Lescott had come to the mountains

it to the nearest day upon which ne

July had burned the slopes from en-
erald to russet-green; August nad
brought purple tops to the ironweeo'

And this was true although he recos-
nized a growing sentiment OF disap-
prevail for himself. In Samson ne
thought he recognized twin gifts; q
spark of genius too rare to be al

for constructive work among his own
people, which needed for its perfectlns

make final play, and seek to enlist

The day of the high class and bril-
liant sweater and the snarpy sport
coat is with us. Racing meets and
other asscmblages of people who are
in position to make the styles into
fashions reveal the bright-hued sweat
er and sport coat, worn with more
than complacency, especially by the
younger people. Over thin white
dressed and with white sport hats and
white footwear there Is crispness
and fitness to the occasion in such ap-
parel that makes an instant appeal to
the younger set.
New conditions bring about new cos
tuning for occasions where formerly
only strictly dressy toilettes were in
vogue. The sweater and the sport coat
are at home in the automobile, and the
only kind of millinery that will with
stand the speed of the open car is that
designed for it, hence the sport hat
and the auto bonnet.
But the brilliance of color in these
comfortable outer garments makes as
gay an assemblage as ever gathered in
glad raiment in days gone by. Cerise

lies in the trimming. Two peoples,
made of the embroidery with millinery
stamens at the center, are posed ex-
actly on top. This is an audacious po-
sition, but warranted because of the
excellence and beauty of the flowers.
One cannot get in the picture the
sheerness of the embroidery which
makes the blossoms look like delicate
ghosts of the flaming flower they copy.
The second hat, of the small poke
bonnet type, is made of allover en-
broidery and narrow val lace. The
frame is covered with blue crepe, and
this forms facing. The upper brim
and crown are of the embroidery in an
open pattern. A frill of narrow val
lace finishes the edge, and there is a
collar and hanging ends of black vel
vet ribbon. Little clusters of pink
June roses and blue forget-me-nots arc
set about the base of the crown. Moth
ing could be prettier, worn with the
midsummer frocks made of sheer
white cottons, or those that are gayly
figured.

The lingerie hat is made of fine,
sheer, cotton embroidery, lace or net,
Ind forms a special kind of midsummer
millinery which reappears each year.
The same kinds of embroideries and
aces that are used for making lingerie
gowns or fine underwear are used in
he construction of this very elegant
millinery; hence the name by which
1t is designated.
The lingerie hat has been in greatest
demand among those who require sew

Of those types made for the "exclus-
i've trade"-that is, for those who can
afford to indulge taste for special
millinery to suit special seasons. They
are by no means inexpensive; but it
Is the work required to make them,
rather than the materials used, that
makes them bring very good prices.
Two lingerie hats shown in the pic

type. At the left a wide embroidery

CHAPTER V-ContInued.

The two men had lost an hour
huddled under q canopy beneath the
cannonading Of q sudden storm. They
had silently watched titanic battalions
OF thunder clouds riding the skies IN
gusey puffs OF gale and raking the
earth with lightning and hail and
water.
"My Godl" exclaimed the mountain
boy abruptly. I'D give anything eff
could paint that."
Lescott rose sniiingly from his seat
before the easel and surrendered his
palette and sheaf Of brushes.
"Try it," he invited.
For a moment Samson stood hest
tant and overcome with diff1dence;
then, with set lips. he took his place
and experimentally Atted his fingers
about the brush, as he had seen Les
colt do. He asked no advice. He
merely gazed for while, and then,
dipping brush and experimenting for
bis color, went to sweeping in his pri-
mary tones. Samson, even though he
was hopelessly daubing. and knew it,
was sincere, and the painter at his
elbow caught his breath and looked on
with the absorption of a prophet. who,
listening to childish prattle, yet recog-
aizes the gift Of prophecy.
"Thet's the way hit looks ter me, "
The boy said, simply.
That's the way 1t is" commended
ais critic.
For a while more Samson worked
1t the nearer hills, then he rose.
I'm DONE" he said. 'haint a-goin'
ter fool with them thar trees an
things. / don't know nothing erbout
!het. 1 can't paint leaves an twigs
an birdsnests. What like is noun
dngs an skies an sech-like things"
Lescot looked at the daub before
aim. A less trained eye would have
teen only the daub, Just as a poor
ndge Of horsefesh might see only
awkward Joints and long legs in a
Reanling colt, though it be bred in the
purple.
Samson" he said, earnestly, that's
Ill there is to art It's the power to
heel the poetry Of color. The rest can
be- taught. The genius must work. of
sourse-work, work, work, and still
work, but the gift is the power of
Ieeing true-and, by God, boy, you
have it. You've got what many men
have struggled a lifetime for, and
Ailed. I'd like to have you study with
me- I'd like to be your discoverer.
Look here"
The painter sat down, and speedily
vent to work. He painted out moth
ng. He simply toned, and, with pre-
hsoly the right touch here and there,
