Grandmother Has Come Back.

For every summer, stretching back through the decades, always and al- ways there has been new erep of summer girls with each succeeding summer The 1916 girl is not like unto the 1915 girl. and, again, the 1917 girl will be different from the 1916 girl. This last is in the nature of prophecy, but it is safe and sure prophecy. They differ, these successive outputs of sum- mer girls, but in q way that is less than skin deep. It is all in the clothes and the way of eoiffing the hair, ac- cording to a veracious masculine ob- server who bases his conclusions upon close range inspection of 20 crops of summer girls.
 And even in the matter of clothes and hair arrangement the sumraer girl simply reverts to an antique idea. The hoopskirt-the expanded crinoline-is the up-to-date idea, but also 1t is a re- naissance of period back in the last century. When grandmother was a summer girl she was hoopskirt girl i; also she coiffed her hair carefully down over her ears. Grandmother has sim ply come back and she is just as sprightly and lovely as she was fifty years ago.-Baltimore American.

FHOW THINGS CAN HAPPEN
 By CATHERINE cRANMER.

When Alberta Randall announced 10 her parents one evening that she in- tended to break away from the we'll beaten path of her feminine ancestors by adopting career the effect was much the same as if the rusty old Revolutionary cannon on the court house square had opened fire upon her native town of Mooresville.
 "Now daughter. no dramatics," said her father.
 "I don't want to be dramatic, fa- ther, but l can't face the thought of doing for all the rest of my days the aimless thinga I've been doing ever since left 5oardin choof."
 "Alberta. said her mother, with hardly enough breath left to gasp, you would deliberately throw away a splendid matrimonial opportunity, for you know you could marry Lashley Graves tomorrow if you'd say the word. Why, the whole town knows that!"
 "Yes, mother, the whole town knows everything that any one person in 1t knows; but if 1 ever marry I'll marry q man who is making things happen and not one who sits and talks of what some of his ancestors did"
 The weeks passed until Alberta had been in New York six months. After considering various fields in which she might realize her ambition to make oh ha interior decoration.
 After a years hard study, she began to plan vacation at home before talk. ing up headquarters in studio build- ing, but just then her services were sought by a firm of decorators whose appreciation meant much to beginner in the profession. They employed All berta to furnish and decorate mod ernized colonial country house from the spacious porches of which the Hud- son was visible through the big trees in the park in front. Of the owner of the place she knew only what the head of the decorating firm had told her that he was "a cranky bachelor with too many hobbies to bother with what he considered woman's job
 When Alberta completed her work and started for visit to her parents she could not restrain sigh of regret at leaving the lovely house to it's ec centric owner, who might not even ap preeiate it's beauty.
 '.So you fooled your dad by making good in the melting pot, did you?" Hel father was plainly proud of her, whiel made Alberta very happy.
 After dinner the family went ou upon the front veranda, and iron where Alberta sat she could SC, through the trees low, white stucc, building surrounded by smooth iawI 1 with it's gravel walks bordered witt

CAUSED DEMAND FOR HATS
How Boer Trader Introduced Fash. ion Among South African Ma
 lives, and Made Money.

It Is said that one De Villiers, a Boer, was the man to introduce hats among the South African natives, and that profit, not philanthropy, was his motive.
 It appears that, chaneing to come across consignment of damaged hats in Port Elizabeth, which were offered for a mere song, De Villiers bought the whole lot, packed them away in his wagon and started for Kaffirland.
 When he reached Tembuland he un- loaded his stock, opened his kegs of liquor, without which no trade was madee at that time, and began busi- ness. But he found his venture likely to prove an unproftable one. The na- tives did not want hats; they wanted blankets and beads and looking glasses, and, above all, liquor, but they looked askance at hats. Then a bright idea came to De Villiers. He wanted to introduce those hats. His simple expedient was to refuse to sell a hat also. The Kaffirs wanted his goods, so they bought the hats.
 When Kafir buys anything he feels bound to make use of it. The na- tives, therefore, donned their head gear and returned to their kraals. Now appeared the brilliancy of the traders idea. Fashion rules the world. It is as strong in Africa as in America, and when those who stayed at home saw the travellers re- turn in all the glory of this strange covering they felt behindhand and old fashioned. Their desire to possess the latest thing in hats became intense. They paid De Villiers a visit, and his stock no longer hung heavy on his hands. The hats were soon sold.

seismoqraphs to Find Batteries.

Among the many things to which science has turned it's attention and abilities since the beginning of the European war, none, perhaps, has been of greater importance than the development of some means by which men in the trenches could locate with fair accuracy the position of an op- posing battery or group of machine guns. This matter has been worked on in many ways, but the nearest sci- ence ever came to solving the propo- sition was the use of strong glasses with the aid of observation balloons and aeroplanes.
 Now, however, a new development has been announced, in which the seis- mograph, long known as an earth quake detector, is made use of. It is declared to be possible to tell from the shock of the gunfire just how large the guns are, what their distance away Is, and the exact direction in which they lie. A practiced eye. it is claimed, can tell not only these points but can distinguish between the shock

Where Bill Nye ExeeIled.

If is in his travesty writings on the incidents of history that Bill Nye ex- celled. Who does not remember his stirring address to the Romans? One paragraph, which is the widest de- scription of a wrecked eeuntenance ever written. Hear him declare:
 If there be three in all your com pany dare face me on the bloody sands, let them come. and I will con struct upon their phySiognomy such cupolas and cornices and dermer win dows and Corimhian capitals and en- tablatures that their own master would pass them by in the broad light of high noon unrecognized." ."-"Great American Hunorists."

Not a Square Deal.

Miss Mason was explaining to her Sunday school class the lesson for the day, the subject being the tares and the wheat.
 "Now, remember, children, the tares represent the bad people and the wheat the good Ones."
 "Why, Miss Mason !" exclaimed a rosy-cheeked boy, who had been listen ing through the lesson with deep inter- est. Did you say the tares are the bad folks and the wheat the good ones?"
 "Yes. James," replied the teacher, pleased at the lads interest.
 Well. that's funny. I think - re- marked the matter-ef- fact child "It's the wheat that gets thrashed, the tares don't"

petunias.
 "Who had the ingenuity to make such beauty spot of that old vacant lot opposite Wellington's?" Her in- QuIry brought twinkle into her fa- ther's eyes.
 Ut is one of many gifts to our city from an enterprising young citizen. It is a resting place and general rendez- vous for tired women shoppers from the country. or for visitors in town between trains. Since the old public square is being converted into a civic center, this town is sought by the tour ists."
 But who had the get-up to do such things in Mooresville, dad?"
 Nobody but your old friend, Lash ley Graves" said her father quietly. And here he comes now to pay his re- spects to the prodigal."
 Following her fathers glance, AL berta saw Lashly Graves alight from shining roadster at the curb. AS he came up the walk she saw that he had changed greatly. A firmness of step and d steadiness of carriage had transferred his lazy nonchalance into a commanding dignity. She began to think he was altogether different, but when she looked into his eyes as he took her hand in greeting she knew that his feelings for her had not changed, and it was not an unpleasant discovery. Half an hour later, she coaxed him to take her in his car to see the new civic center and other improvements which were coming into being as a result of his generosity.
 You've really accomplished won ders. Lashley." exclaimed Alberta.
 Then thank yourself. Alberta: I've merely taken your tip to make things happen. said Lashiey, with.a smile.
 oh how did you know l had said such unkind things?" A crimson blush accompanied this contrite question.
 Luckily for me, I overheard your remarks to your parents about me one evening and withdrew my hand from your doorbell and went out into the night to face myself and see why you felt contempt for me. When I reached home 1 found a special delivery letter telling me my great aunt had left me all her wealth. told no one, but went to see her lawyers. The day returned you left for New York and 1 went to work to make something happen that you would think worth while"
 ..But you, too, have accomplished wonders Alberta" Lashley's voice be- came tender and ardent and pleading. 'That place on the Hudson is dream. 1 kept the identity of it's owner from you so that you would carry out your own ideas entirely, for dared to hope that you might some day consent to share home and happiness with me. Do you think that will ever come, 1 1ear?"
 "I believe it has come now" whis- pered Alberta, flor don't know which love more, you or that darling house on the Hudson"
