Among tailored hats the always pop ular black has more to recommend it this season than it can usually claim. It takes high art and fine materials, as rule, to save the black hat from being commonplace. But the present season has developed fad for lus- trous surfaces. almost everything in millinery is shiny, and black is re- deemed from it's somberness by its brilliance.
 In hats. and in many of their trim. mings. black lacquer or varnish GOV. CTS the shape and the wings or foliage that so often trim it. Even ribbons have polished surface made by some method of treating them, and in black they are designated as stove polish ribbons This matter-of-fact name Is accurately descriptive of them. In keeping with the shining surfaces of things there is corresponding finish in workmanship, characteristic of the hats of today. Perhaps these things account for the advance in prices. which the public appears to have met with great cheerfulness.
 Two brimmed hats and a turban, in the picture, all boast a measure of the luster and trim finish that is demand. ed in street hats. The turban is made of satin straw braid sewed over a frame and trimmed with narrow faille ribbon and silk-tiber ornaments that look like feathers. Both braid

 4 MANS CHOICE
By H. RI. EGBERT.

All that day Jack Barrett had sat at hi1 desk like a man in a dream. Each successive telephone message had spelled increasing disaster At first he calculated how much he would have left after the payment of his debts; then he considered the settle ment; then he knew that there would not even be a settlement. The crash had swept his entire fortune away. Everything was gone. He, the famous Wall street speculator, who had Jumped into the game with his fa- thers eight million dollars, and driven his adversaries before him by sheer pluck and daring. had gone under be- fore their combination
 He was conscious of the looks of his employees. Poor devils, they knew that they would have to look for other jobs soon enough They were thinking only of themselves, from his high-priced secretary to his office boy.
 He brazened 1t out, meeting visitors. telling the truth. He would not run away. He resolved to face the worst. Nevertheless, it was with vast relief that he left his office at five o'clock, to go to the only person who, he thought, still believed in him, still kept her faith.
 Dora Jameson and he had been en- gagged three months. Her mother was climber" her father alternately a bankrupt and a millionaire. Some shady speculative business enabled him to put a bold front toward the world Jack Barrett had no idea that Dora was of his mettle.
 She came into the reception room where he awaited her, and he told her everything. And he misunder- stood, although he saw her face harden.
 "I' shall try again for our sakes, dearest" he said.
 That's all very well, but do you think I am going to wait till you have made another fortune?" she pouted.
 Wait, Dora?"
 "Yes. Don't you suppose I have other chances?"
 You mean you cared only for my money?"
 "You are foolish, Jack. I loved you but I'm not going to marry a beggar I must have dresses and servants and money to spend"
 Without a word, Barrett turned away. This was the end of every

The nearly grown miss this year shares with her elders the charm that lies in dressy suits of taffeta silk. AS beflts the modes for youthful wearers, suits made for her are less elaborate than those designed for her older sis ters. but they have decorations enough to be interesting.
 Coats in these silk models are made in great diversity of styles, but all of them may be classed as short. Skirts are not as full as those made Tor indoor wear, and depend for em. belllshment upon bands of tucks rath- CT than draperies. Colors are attrac- tive, with fairly light shades of green and blue. as well as lighter tans and grays, much in evidence
 An old fashion which has been re. ylved appears ill the full quillings of DoX-plaited silk with "pinked" edges that are used for trimming both skirts and coats. These quilings help out Ill achieving the popular flare at the bottom of coats and in supplying the banded effects and horizontal lines that place the otherwise plain skirts in the mode.

and ornaments have the sheen of silk in a rich and perfect black. At the left of the group a graceful and smart pressed shape has a surface as shiny as satin. There are two bands about the crown, one of velvet and the other of stove-polish ribbon. finished with small fiat bows. A hand some ornament of goura feathers fits the snappy style of this hat to perfec- tion.
 At the right the brilliant black of the pressed shape finds it's match in brilliance in a wide border of black and-white striped satin. It Is trimmed with folded collar of stove-polish rib bon and a bead ornament in black and white applied to the crown

neighborhood of seventeen years, is shown here. It is simple enough to be made at home, and an ambitious girl may even undertake 1t for herself, by the aid of pattern. The skirt IS plain except for three tucks between the waist and knees, and is cut to flare with most of it's fullness at the sides and in the back. It is shoe-top length and has three-inch hem. There is a girdle of taffeta made of wide bias piece at the waist, to be worn over the plaln narrow belt that supports the skirt
 The straight little coat is set on to a small yoke It is ornamented with a group of four tucks, near the bot tom, also. The sleeves are cut to widen toward the hands In many suits the widened sleeve is finished with border of velvet, but in this model the fullness of the sleeve Is confined near the hand by rows of shirrings. The shirrings form a cuff, which is headed by band of velvet
 The neck is finished with a faring collar and tie of the silk. A collar of scallopcd organdie overlays the silk one. both of them opening in small V at the front and wired to stand up at the back.

He is opening his eyes. He will recover"
 He opened his eyes, to see himself looking into the face of girl of about twenty years. Dark hair, bound back with a tillet of colored cloth. a dag zling skin, milk white at the throat. but tanned by the sun above the chin Garments of woven fiber, and bare feet fin sandals. And, in her eyes, a divine compassion that he had never seen before on any face except his mothers
 Slowly consciousness returned to him. He remembered his hardships on the tramp ship, the brutal mate, the drunken captain; the typhoon that had struck them off Fiji, forcing them to run for days before it; then the grounding on the shores of the un- known island, the wreck, the curses of the sinking sailors, his own fight for the plank on which he had been washed ashore, to fall senseless upon the beach
 Days passed. during which he was visited from time to time by serious, strange-looking men and women. When at length he was convalescent. Jack learned where he was It was Pitcairn island, peopled by the de- scendants of the mutineers of the Bounty who had fled there in the eighteenth century. God-fearing men and women, they lived on the lone Hest island of the world, visited only once a year by government vessel

 He had grown half ashamed to meet the faces of the foreign sailors. but they saw in him nothing but Pitcairn Islander. His clothes had long since gone to rags, and, wearing the gar ments of native fiber, he looked and spoke like one of the inhabitants.
 Doris watched him with sinking heart all day. At last he went out. and then, weeping, she fled into the woods. If he wanted to go there should be no grief at parting, no struggle on her part to retain him.
 The sight of the crew, the air of civilization about the trim ship, infect ed Jack like wine. He stood upon the tiny wharf, gazing at her.
 Somebody had thrown down an old newspaper. Jack picked it up. It was the society section of a New York publication. Holding it in his hand mechanically, he went aboard
 Ship another hand. sir?" he asked the captain, and told him his story.
 The captain listened at first incred- ulously. Then his heart went out to the poor devil of shipwrecked man.
 Yes. Come aboard by eight" he answered curtly.
 Jack Barrett went back along the sands to the point, from which he could see his home. His heart was doubly torn within him. He groaned in travail of spirit. He opened the paper.
 Under a two-column heading was the account of Doras marriage. She had married man he knew-a million aire. one of shallow, worthless set. The list of presents was long There were a diamond tiara, a diamond sun- burst. the famous black pearls" that her father had acquired from a bank. rupt duke at auction. The mans heart sickened as he read. He did not think of Dora, but of the falseness of the life from which he had fled. And a sudden illumination came to him.
 He fell upon his knees and prayed for enlightenment And when he arose he knew that choice coincided with duty.
 Slowly he turned his footsteps home ward
 Upon her knees in the hut a woman prayed likewise. Hearing a step. she rose. She ran to her husband with incredulous joy. Standing thus, in each others arms, they saw the ship, little twinkling, distant patch upon the ocean.
 Upon Jack Barrett's face was im- measurable content as he kissed her. Copyright 1916. by w. C. Chapman.)

 That night he shipped as a common sailor before the mast on a tramp ship bound, ultimately, for the South Seas. He dropped his name, every thing. He shipped as Thomas Jones, and he left Jack Barrett as a relic of forgotten past.
