NEW YORKER CANNOT SWEAR
Just Said "Doegone IT. as He Saw
His New Car Go Up
In Smoke.

"I don't know who owned the car"
said Constable George Simpson OF
Sayville. reporting by telephone to the
New York Sun office the burning OF
big automobile on the Lakeland road,
according to the New York correspond
ent of the Times Star, "but I'm blamed
sure tn fellow that owned 1t is a man
that don't swear"
The reporter at the telephone asked
the constable to explain.
Well" said he, 'it was big six
cylinder car that looked like 1t was
pretty nigh brand new. dunno what
struck it, but she busted out in flames
all over, all of a sudden. The man
that was a-drivin' II looked like New
Yorker. He had to jump so quickly
to keep from bein' burned up that he
didn't have time to stop tn engine.
TIL car kept on a-goin' for half a mile,
all ablaze from front to back. II never
stopped until 1t was half burned up
and in five minutes after II stopped
there wasn't nothin' in tn road but a
pile o. twisted iron and ashes. TIL
man that was a drivin' 1t run after II
an ketched up Just about tn time tn
fire was out. He looked at tn pile OF
ashes a few minutes an then he Just
sez 'Doggone it, an took tn next
train for New York. He sure was q
man that don't use no violent Ian
guage."

Although there is no end of variety
in the shapes OF hats for little girls,
the small-brimmed hat promises to
continue as a favorite. At least five
out OF six of all the hats shown may
be relied upon to carry soft, moder-
ately large crown upon gently droop-
ing brim. The brims are more or less
wide and more or less flexible, the
wider ones providing che floppy. grace
fully curved lines about the face that
suit girlhood so well.
A hat for daily wear, to and from
school, or otherwhere, and one of vel
vet for dress-up are shown here. They
are selections from number Of thor
oughly practical hats for little girls.
The hat for school wear Is made up
in several novel weaves In woolen
fabrics and has plain crown and a
flexible brim. Machine stitching Is an
important factor In it's makeup. The
brim may be turned up or down at
any position. The crown Is quite plain
and finished at it's base with a band
of the same material as the hat. Col
or contrasts and novel patterns In the
material are the factors that place
this hat above the commonplace.
The hat at the right Is of brown vel
vet with soft puffed crown and plain
brim that suggests the poke-bonne'
shape. A full ruching of tan-colored
satin ribbon is gathered about the join
ins of the crown and brim. Near iti

"A Vision in
the Forest
By
CARL CAR TER

Copyright. 1913. by w. q. Chapman.)
II must confess this is ghost
story" said Jameson at the club
However, you can put 1t down to
three nights and days spent wander
ing in the Adirondacks. IL you prefer
q mind not to tell 1t anyway, only
remember the expression on Tarrant' s
face when he told 1t to me.
"Tarrant and his wife had been
married six years, and that is just
about the time when trouble develops,
If it is going to develop at all, especial
ly when a couple are childless. They
just began TO disagree. The truth
was, they were living an artificial city
life, and both were getting bored.
"Tarrant and Molly had been deeply
in love with each other when they
married. Molly couldn't understand
why Jack seemed not to care for her
any more, and Jack Tarrant won
dered why the sweet girl he had mar
ried was always nagging and finding
fault with him. They talked of sepa.
ration.
"The matter was still up in the air
when they decided on spending their
usual summer holiday separately.
Molly went home to her mother and a
lot OF crank female friends-the un-
married kind who try to separate
happy couples. Tarrant went up to
the Adirondacks to fish.
"The first day or two he mooned
about, very miserable, and yet relieved
at the sense of freedom. He had ex-
pected to long for Molly; on the con-
trary he began TO think Of all the un-
happiness that had been In their lives.
The thought Of the tie between them
maddened him, and that was how he
lost his way in the woods at sundown.
"Tarrant had no woodcraft at all.

This easy and comfortable-looking
d afternoon gown of taffeta with lace
bodice, might lack just the requisite
crispness If IL were not worn with
a dashing hat that draws its inspira-
tion from Spain. This last item in
the costume is decidedly new in style
and one sees this Spanish idea in
evidence wherever the new millinery
modes are displayed.
The hat is made of velvet over q
frame having a fiat brim and a soft,
puffed crown. A narrow band of vel
vet encircles the crown at its base.
Small silk-covered balls are set about
the brim-edge and two sprays of flow
ers, in vivid-colored velvet, set in dark
foliage, are applied fat to the brim.
1t is posed at saucy angle on the
head by means of bandeau, which
lifts ii at the left side. A scarf of soft
silk is draped over the bandeau
and finished with loop and two
pointeT ends that hang toward the
back. They are weighted with the lit
tie balls set about the point.
The bodice of black lace over white
chiffon is cut in kimono fashion,
with sleeves extending below the ell
bow, The open throat is finished with
The Olneyville times. (Olneyville [Providence, R.I.]) 1887-1917, 1915-09-10

small revers of velvet, and strap OF
velvet extends down the front. Little
pearl buttons, set close together, and
narrow fancy braid at each side,
decorate it.
The skirt is plain and gathered
with a little standing ruflle about the
waist line. The bottom is finished
with shallow scallop bound with the
taffeta. 1t is rather short and, alto
gether, the dress goes well with the
very new hat which is worn to such
advantage with it. This costume is
an excellent one for general afternoon
wear and will. please those who are
fond Of informal dances-the devotees
of the dansant.
