A BALKAN
EPISODE
By LOUISE B. CUMMINGS
By LOUISE B. CUMMINGS

The Balkan states are half dozen
little kingdoms that have been fighting
one another from time immemOrial.
and all Of them have been fighting the
Turk. II the many occurrences in the
Balkans of a romantic nature could be
gathered together there would be
enough of them to supply story tellers
for hundreds of years. The following
is q sample:
Not far from Adrianople there lived
Il country girl named Tarissa. She
was Christian inhabiting region
ruled by the Turks. Tarissa's home
was just south of the border line be-
tween Turkey and Roumelia. One day
Il party of Roumelians headed by a
young man, Boris Lovatz, came down
the valley of the Martha river in pur-
suit of band of Turks who had car
ried off some Roumelian women. Be-
fore his return he had met Tarissa and
there had resulted Il love affair. 10
vaN was successful in rescuing the
women he had come for and went back
into Roumelia.
Had it not been for having met Ia
rissa he might never have come into
Turkey again and been safe from the
revenge due him for the rescue. But
there is no risk a man will not take
for love. and it was not long before he
was again across the border on a visit
to his sweetheart Indeed he came SO
often that it got out among the Turks
that this enemy had been captivated
by girl and was making periodical
visits to her. So a watch was set for
him.
One day the spy who was selected
for this service went to a Turkish Off
Ger who was on duty in the neighbor-
hood and told him that Boris was with
Tarissa. The officer directed several
Of his men to mount their horses, and.
placing himself ut their head. he rode

FASHIONS FOR SPRING
BY Margaret Mason

NEW YORK, Feb. 19.-The Fifth
avenue shop windows all dolled up in
their sonsy Spring models look like
nothing in the world SO much as
the display windows of those funny
little costume shops that hire out the
markings of a dashing cavalier, a Louis
Quinze court lady, a Spanish senorita
or a ballet sprite for a night of carni-
val or masque.
Positively one little model Of azure
silk blooming in pink roses has tight
bodice of the silk laced front with
silken cord and deep panniers edged
with silken quilting and caught up
over short petticoat of silk lace and
net with single pink roses. 1t is ex-
actly such an appropriate costume as
little Bopeep always wears to tend
her sheep between the covers Of an
edition de lux of Mother Goose.
In this instance little Bopeep has
found her sheep in the throng of
modern maids and matrons who fol-
low the Fashions like a pack of silly
sheep and will don this stage like
creation with perfect sangfroid for
present day wear.
Another creation in lustrous twilled
silk in a soft old blue tone has quaint
tight boned bodice that hooks up the
front and is worn over the full ankle
length skirt with a sort Of, peplum
effect of square tabs in the wall of
Troy design such as Lorna Doone is
always pictured in.
These tabs are outlined in narrow
fiat gold braid as is also the square
low cut neck and the edges of the
tight elbow sleeves which are also,
cut in the tab effect of the wall of
Troy. Folds of gold colored silk net
fills in the low cut bodice and forms
full undersIeeves down to the
wrists.
