GREAT VARIETY OF BIRD PETS
Lover Of F%eathered Creatures May
Pay for Them Almost Any Price
That His Fancy Dictates.

A recent international bird show
has provided some astonishing facts
and figures regarding the value OF
song birds, remarks London Tit-Bits.
There are nearly 100 classes of ca
naries. That they can be Norwich or
Lancashire, border or Yorkshire va
riegated, lizard, unfiighted, clear, cross
bred, crested, self or foul conveys
very little to the average mind, but
leaves one marveling at the variety of
chirping little creatures whose feath-
ers are every conceivable shade of
yellow. One marvels also at the va
riety of birds that could be kept as
pets. Finches, linnets, redpoles, TOM
tits, robins, wrens, ~stonechats, bab-
blers, redstarts and long-tailed, short
tailed and crested varieties of all of
them in every size from the minute
humming bird to the plump scarlet
cockatoo, all vie for the popularity
which up to the present has been the
monopoly of the canary. And these
little birds are all quite cheap. A few
shillings will buy most of them, but,
IN the other hand, $4,000 would be
asked for a gorgeous crimson bird of
paradise, or $4,000 for the canary-bul-
finch White Rose, the most expensive
song bird in the world.

of moderate width, with slight fare
toward the deep hem. The seams
overlap and are beautifully machine
stitched. 1t is an easy fit about the
hips and of course must be worn with
out a belt, as it is shaped to the waist
line.
The short coat could hardly be
palmer. The back is seamless, but
the front is cut in four sections and
shaped to a vague following of the
figure. The belt, extending only part
way around, is a style feature of the
season, and an unusually clever touch
is given the design by the placing Of
the coat pockets at the ends of the
belt. The band cross the top of the
pocket seems merely an extension of
it made a little narrower.
One of the new coat sets, a collar
and cuffs made of figured ribbon, are
shown in the picture, with a bow tie
of plain satin ribbon. They are en-
tirely separate from the suit and are
added occasionally by way of a change
or a bit of furnishing for a special DC
casion. The skirt is a little longer
than it should be, or the model on
which it is pictured is a little shorter,
as shown in the picture.
The Penn's Grove record., 1915-10-29

Refreshingly plain and smart, and
embellished with several clever new
ideas in the details of its finishing,
this tailored suit will appeal to wom-
en- who appreciate these desirable
qualities. 1t is to the credit of Ameri-
cans that the best tailored suits are
made in this country, and they are
typical Of the thoroughbred American
woman. A suit must first be practical
to find favor with her; it must also
be trim in appearance, well cut and
faultlessly tailored. American design
ers and manufacturers have met these
demands of the discriminating, and
the popular taste has been benefited
by their products.
Serge, gaberdine, broadcloth, whip
cord, or any of the strong well-woven
wool goods used for suits are chosen
for the tailor-made. Before they are
tailored they are to be shrunk,
sponged and pressed, so that they will
stand stormy weather. Certain of
the cravenetted cloths, as serge or
covert, will repay a little extra outlay
in money by their power to resist wet
weather.
The skirt in the suit shown is only

Something very new and captivat-
ing in flowers for the corsage has been
launched for the holidays. The cor
sage flower or bouquet is as often
worn on the muff as on the corsage,
by the way. This new idea is called
by several names-the vanity flow
er, the beauty" flower, or the van
ity" corsage. So far roses, dahlias,
peoples and orchids have appeared
that do not differ from those we are
accustomed to see worn on the cor
sage. But, in the heart of each flower,
concealed by petals or stamens or the
shape of the flower, is hidden a little
powder box containing powder in a
small cake. A tiny powder puff is lifted
out by means of a small ring, and
milady robs the heart of a flower for
the sake of vanity or beauty.
These flowers are set in millinery
foliage, and in some of the bouquets
the stems are tied with green satin
ribbon matching the foliage in shade.
One end of the ribbon is turned up in
= small fiat bag which contains a little
mirror.

the Greeks, you know. He was a very
strong man, and he had a beautiful
wife named Penelope, whom he left
to go to the wars. He raj away ten
years, because that war lasted ten
years"
"His wife must have missed him."

'Why. I'm not sure whether she did
or not" said Eli, because, you see,

I'm afraid Ulysses was something of

ulysses went off to the wars and left
Penelope behind him. When the wars
were over he came back, and that's
where his real troubles began. Ac-
cording to his story he got caught in
a bad wind, and his ship drifted
around for ten years more before ne
got home. But that's only his tale,
and lots of married men tell much
the same sort of yarn to their WIVES
only they can't lay it on as tnlck
nowadays. Anyway, even Ulysses ad-
mitted that there were some LADIES
concerned in his troubles, and he LAID
them particularly to a Miss Gree. But

"Children's Day" was the idea of
the superintendent of the new hos
pital. Old methods had been aban-
doned and new ones ruled. Doctor
Oakley believed that in admitting the
little folks of the town to the hospital
grounds once a month, in charge of
the matron, he would cheer up his
convalescents, inspire the young peo-
pie with a of pity, and bring con-
tributions to the hospital.
Eli Baynes seemed a terribly old
person to Dorothy and Ned, though,
rs a matter of fact, he was only forty.
But he had returned from the West
crippled with rheumatism, contracted
by working in the silver mines, and
after three months at the hospital he
was only just beginning to regain his
health.
He sat in his wheeled chair, and his
eyes widened with pleasure as he
saw his little friends approaching.
"Tell us another story, Uncle Eli"
pleaded Dorothy, climbing upon his
knee.

roses made of ribbon are shown and
one other flower for the corsage. At
the right is a large fiat daisy with a
rosebud mounted at its center. This
contains the little powder box, and is
meant for the dressing table.
Large peoples made of velvet, with
a narrow fur border about each petal,
are very rich and handsome. They di-
vide honors with ribbon roses and mil
linery orchids for favor.
A chrysanthemum made of narrow
ribbon is a lovely selection to be worn
on the corsage of a dance frock. Each
petal is a loop of baby ribbon, knotted
at the top, and it is made in gay light
colors.
No one would think to look at these
flowers that they held so valuable a
secret in their hearts. They promise
to become a great vogue for certainly

that he hadn't acted quite as a mar

She sprang to her feet, and, with
the little boy, raced across the green
toward a sw~eet-looking lady who was
stroIIing quietly in their direction un-
der the shade of the hospital trees.
Eli Baynes sat rigid in his chair.
Then he looked wildly about him. He
had begged the superintendent to get
him a propelling chair, SO that he
as yet his desire had not been com
piled with. Now he felt a mad i'm
pulse to flee.
He sat up and gingerly put one foot
to the ground. He must escape at all
hazard. To his surprise he found that
a certain measure of fiexibility had re-
turned to his limbs; perhaps it was
the will at work on the body. He put
out his other leg, and for the first
time in months Eli Baynes stood erect,
without support, and Strengthened his
twisted limbs and muscles.
Absorbed in this effort, he had not
seen how quickly the three were ap-
preaching him again. AS he was about
to attempt the walk to the hospital
he found himself confronted by the
mother of the two children.
One glance into his face, a little
gasp of fear, and Lucy Baynes was
weeping on her husbands neck, her
arms about him.
