came on the damp air, and off in the
opposite direction she saw a long col
umn of men trotting toward the
town. Now. the bridge was between
Bess and the village, and she realized
that if she could wal<en the people,
they would pull up the planks, and
the English could not pass the river
which flowed between.
Above her dangled the rope. The
bell swayed like a huge barrel on It's
oaken beam. On this same beam the
kitten was cozily perched, but the girl
had forgotten all about the eat. The
town must be awakened, and the SICK
general saved.
In another moment she had grasped
the rope, and putting on 1t all her
strength she pulled "Clang! clanS!
clang!" the deep-throated notes
clashed on the night air. 'Clang!
clang, clang" over the woods, the
fields and the river. She saw tne
English borsemen look up towards
the belfry in surprise, for the moon
light was as bright as day. Then, as
the sound rolled over the land, she
also saw that it was heard. For In
the town the lights began to gleam
in every window, and the people
knew the enemy was at hand. She
saw men racing to the bridge, carry
ing long poles, with which they tore
up the planlls, and then she saw the
angry British horsemen as they ar
rived at the bridge, too late.
Come down here, .Bess!" she heard
her fathers sleepy voice call. What
are you doing up in that bellry at
this time of night
ooh nothing much laughed Bess'
as she climbed down, With the kitten
In her arms "Only ] saw a troop OF
redcoats coming and rang the alarm
10 waken the village"
So the town and the general were
saved. The next morning an officer
rode out to see who it was that had
pealed the bell in time the night be-
fore to tell them of the enemy.
"It was my daughter here, said
the old father, proudly. "She is al
WAYS wishing she were a boy. so she
could go in the army, but I think she
did pretty good work as it was"
The officer went back, and the next
day there came to Bess a commission,
which made her very important
person, indeed, and in addition there
was a beautiful gold medal from the
general himself tc) l9l5

How She Made q Charming Evening
Wrap.


Wrap.
wheneyer I see mother beaming
with that pleased expression usually
associated with the cat that has just
swallowed a canary, know that
somewhere back of those smiling eyes
is tucked a surprise for dad or me.
1t did not take long to find out that
I was the one to be benefited by her
thoughtfulness this time, for she said.
"Put on your smartest frock and hat.
Robin. for we are going downtown
on an all-day's ramble. Our first stop
will be at Nine. MarJolaine's, as she
is having private view of her new
est creations. Dress as quickly as you
can, SO that we can leave the house
early"
BY 10 o'clock we were in madame S
beautiful salon admiring the exquisite
costumes worn by the pretty manne-
quins.
There was complete outfit de-
signed especially for the debutante,
and mother became particularly in
terested in the evening gowns.
went into raptures over an adorable
model of palest pink chiffon embroi-
Gered in silver, and mother, again
smiling with the ''swallowed-the-
canary expression, said: IT am glad
that you like this frock, for l, too,
consider it the loveliest / have seen.
We will order it duplicated for you,
Robin, for both daddy and / want
YOU to look your prettiest at Aunt
Katheryn's silver wedding annlver-
sary, which you know is next month =
I thanked her in a perfectly
proper" manner suppressing my en-
thusiastic outburst until l reached
| home.
After ordering the frock, mother
suggested that ought to have be
tween season wrap to wear with II,
and that / should observe closely
those being shown.
There was a cape-like wrap, called
the Marie Antoinette," that was
girlishly quaint and charming. 1t APP
peared to pe so simple in construction
| that | felt sure that / could copy 1t.
I persuaded mother to buy the ma
terials and with the help of Mrs. Ma
thon / made q replica of Nine. Mar
| iolaine's design with a few modift-
| cations.
| Instead of using cloud-gray chif-
| fon taffeta for the wrap, ] substitut-
ed dove-gray faille taffeta, for I ad-
mire the heavier silk for this par
| ticular purpose.
Mr.. Mathon cut the cape over a
| very full pattern and made it long
| enough to extend to within eight
| inches of the hem of my frock.
Then she arranged a fichu-li like
| drapery of the silk over the shoulders
and made slashes in the sides for the
arms.
While she was stitching on the sill
I Joined the seams of the rose-pint
chiffon lining by hand and covered
yards and yards of cordins with the
gray silk.
1t is not easy to adjust chiffor
| lining properly, so Mrs. Mathon's eX-
perienced fingers were required fol
this task.
! made the wide ruffles for the hen,
of the cape and the narrower ones
for the fichu and the armholes. TIC
avoid the trouble of hemming then
| used the silk double. Mrs. Mathor
applied the ruffles with the cording
using five rows to center those about
the lower edge of the cape.
The wrap is clasped beneath bow
of black velvet ribbon, from which
are suspended three pink roses made
of silk
Dad said my cape was silver
cloud with a rosy lining and, to his
way of thinking, il was Just the sor
of wrap a girl ought to wear.

Quail Naturalization

Game experts Of the United States
ana canadian governments are in a.
ouandary over the matter of quail
naturalization. The Canadian officers
tried for years to introduce the birds
into the country OF the Canadian
Pacific coast. The efforts, however,
were unavailing. Only a few eovics
were raised and these quickly dis
appeared. Canada; consequently, gave
up tine experiment in disgust. Then
the United States authorities tried to
naturalize the quail along it's Pacific
slope. particularly in the State of
Washington. No sooner, however,
were the birds released than they mi
grated northward, and immediately
into Canada, where they settled down
permanently and began multiplying at
a most remarkable rate.

A Party Bag

Have you ever gone to party and
faced the problem of where to put
your handkerchief? Party dresses as
n. rule are not provided with pockets.
A girdle is a dangerous hiding place
for a handkerchief If one desires to
keep the handkerchief A pretty lin
ish to such a costume, as well as a
serviceable finishing feature, is one
of those dainty little bags just large
enough to hold a glove, handkerchief
and vanity box. They are done III

Steel Chief Blames
Lack of Publicity For
Great Conflict
MASSES DO NOT

Slaughter Could Not

Were known

CLEVELAND, o., Oct. 22.-Public-
ity-its relation to "big business"
and Its value as a preventive of war
was the theme today Of Chairman
h. II. Gary, of the United States
Steel corporation in his presidential
address before the American Iron a.
Steel institute.
Whether, In fact. any business
inan of prominence. ever used the
expression the public be damned"
considerable number of business
leaders have acted Oh it, the speak
er admitted, with Their esult that the
whole business fraternity suffered.
There has been change in the past
decade. however, he said, many big
business heads making public all
suitable facts and figures concern
ing their enterprises even when not
required to do SO BY law.
Due to this change, Gary said,
there is abundant evidence that at
present the great general public is
willing to meet half way the individ-
ual OF the corporation In the deter
minatiom of all questions that effect
private or public interests"
"But In government AS well as in
business publicity 10 a necessity

he commented. has peculiar appli-
cation to the present situation in
Europe. The masses of the people
OF the different nations engaged in
the terrible conflicts that are now
raging In Europe were fully inform
ed OF all the facts, is it to be sup
posed the wars would be much
Ion ger continued"
Citing the horrible conditions al
ready prevailing ard the burdens
the belllgerents will have to bear
when peace is restored. the speaker
drew negative conclusion.

wars were started the masses OF
people had been informed that they
