The Prince George's enquirer and southern Maryland advertiser. (Upper Marlborough, Md.) 1882-1925, 1915-02-26

the Claymore inn whom that inn was
simply tavern.
Then she found herself looking into
a drawer half drawn out and filed
with all sorts of heterogeneous ar
ticles-sealing wax, roll Of pins, a
penholder, a knife-a knife! Why
should she recoil again at that? Moth
ing could be more ordinary than to
find a knife in the desk drawer of a
young man! The fact was not worth
thought; yet before she knew it her
fingers were creeping towards this
knife, had picked it up from among
the other scattered articles, had closed
upon it, let it drop again, only to
seize hold of it yet more determinedly
and carry it straight to the light.
The knife was lying open on her
palm, and from one of the blades the
end had been nipped, just enough of
it to match
Was she mad! She thought so for
a moment; then she laid down the
knife close against the cap and con-
templated them both for more minutes
than she ever reckoned.
The candle fiuttering low in its
socket reused her at last from her ab
straction. Catching up the two ar.
ticles which had so enthralled her, she
restored the one to the closet, the
other to the drawer, and, with swift
but silent step, regained her own
room, where she buried her head in
her pillow, weeping and praying until
the morning light, breaking in upon
her grief, awoke her to the obligations
of her position and the necessity Of
silence concerning all the experiences
of this night.

THE fad of the hour is the straight
l hanging ample veil, ripping about
the lower edge and just as full as it
well can be made. 1t is of dotted or
figured net and usually it is in black,
although a warm gray or mode or
dark fawn color is liked immense
ly. The latter are often finished
with lace pattern about the lower
edge, which does not interfere at all
with their being bound.
The usual binding is a narrow fold
of black satin. A recent arrival is
the black veil with binding of white
satin A few varieties are bordered
with ribbon an inch wide, but the
great majority of all the wells are cut
circular, hang to point little below
the shoulders, and are bound with a
narrow fold of black satin.
An extreme of the mode is made of
square of black tilet net having
small solid squares scattered over its
surface. The net is yard wide. A
circular piece is cut out from the CEN
ter and the opening is hemmed in a
narrow hem into which round elastic
cord is run. The edges are bound
with a narrow fold Of white satin The
veil is adjusted to the hat by the elias
tic cord and hangs full, and in points,
to waist line.
1t is an easy matter to make one
