Later, when the boards he had

in the framework of the bed.

ways, his lank, possibly ungainly, fig
ure crowned by a head of scholarly
refinement, his amiability when
pleased, his irascibility when crossed,
formed a character attractive to me
from its very contradictions; and after
my wtfe's death and before my son
Oliver reached companionable age, it
was In my intercourse with this man l
found my most solid satisfaction.
Yet We often quarreled. His dog.
matism frequently ran counter to my
views, and. being myself man of
quick and violent temper, hard words
sometimes passed between US, to be
forgotten the negt minute in a hand
shake, or some other token of mutual
esteem. These dissensions-if such
they could be called-never took place
except in the privacy of his study or
mine. We thought too much of each
other to display our differences of
opinion abroad or even in the presence
of Oliver; and however heated our
arguments or whatever our topic we
invariably parted friends, till one fate

One Of the fads of the hour, which
Is particularly strong with debu-
tantes and other youthful devotees Of
fashion, is the Cleopatra headband.
This is very simple hair ornament
to be called after the wonderful queen
whose name is associated in our
minds with all things splendid and i'm
perial. 1t is made Of sparkling
rhinestones and binds the brow after
the manner Of Egyptian and other
headdresses. And 1t Is entirely sue
cessful
Two patterns of this new hair orna-
ment are shown in the picture. They
are among the prettiest Of many de-
signs, all made in about the same
way. There is some variation in the
size Of the rhinestones; the smaller
ones, used in the more elaborate fig
ures usually, represent more work in
making the band. and are therefore
more expensive. All the bands Of
brilliauts are mounted on narrow vel
vet ribbon and fasten with a snap
fastener or hook and thread eye, at
the back
The Cleopatra band looks well with
nearly all the new coiffures. which is
one good reason for its popularity. It
Is shown here worn with the Bobby"
coiffure. This particular style seems
to have impressed itself on women
