| 1t is my opinion that Lightfoot was
stuffing you and that Cousin Jumper
was backing him up just to see how big

But, my dear, / tell you that I saw

Perhaps you did and perhaps you
didn't" retorted unbelieving Mrs. Peter.
Il don't doubt you saw rags of some
kind on Lightfoot's horns. but it will
take more than his word to make me
believe that those are new horns grown
reasonable. Now. does it, Peter?'
mo. it DOESN'T confessed Peter; ''but
there are SO many things happening
all the time that don't sound reason
able that 1 don't know when to believe
a thing and when not to-"
Peter had planned to go about among
his friends and tell them all about
Lightfoot's new horns, for he suspected
that few of them knew about them.
But after his talk with Mrs. Peter he
changed his mind. You see, doubt had
crept in, and in spite Of all he could do
it stayed there. He tried to make him
self believe that he believed that story,
but that miserable doubt persisted. So,
though his tongue fairly itched to tell
the story of Lightfoots new horns, he
kept 1t still.
One night when Mistress Moon was
shining brightly Peter wandered deep
in the Green Forest until presently he
found himself on the edge of a swampy
place. 1t was the very place where
LiRhtfoot the Deer had spent the win
ter when the snow was deep. Peter
hopped along aimlessly. He was think
Ing SO hard that he didn't watch his
steps. and presently he stepped on
something that hurt his foot.
OUCH he cried, and looked to see
what it was he had stepped on. Stick
ing out of the soft wet earth was what
Peter at first thought was sharp
pointed stick. But when he looked a
little more closely he saw that 1t was
different from any stick he had ever
and polished, and when later Peter tried
| his big teeth on it he found he made
| no impression on it. AT once he began
| to dig around it to see what the rest
| of it was like. 1t wasn't long before
| he found that there were other points
| a thought flashed into Peters head
and he made the soft earth fairly fly as
he dug, for Peter was growing more
| and more excited.
| At last he had uncovered all of the
queer stick with several points. II
wasn't a stick at all. 1t was one OF
Lightfoots old horns, There was nc
| question about that. There it lay right
! in front of him. Peter gave a great
| sigh of pure happiness. That bother.
I some doubt in his mind had been put
| to sleep forever. Lightfoot had said
that his old horns had dropped of
| somewhere, and here was one of them
to prove It,
| "Lightfoots story was true!" cried
| Peter joyfully. Now Mrs. Peter will

American women wear the tmmodest
| and freakish styles Of the mannequin
and women of pleasure in Paris, rather
than the clothes of the smartly turned
out French woman OF society.
Our answer Is that the American
public has both to choose from in our

The Gowns Of Lady.
I'm France. as IN America, there has
grown up the phrase. the clothes Of a
lady because Of this discussion. 1t
Is quito true that there are two sets
Of clothes in Paris. but the French de-
signing houses are well aware that
they could not sell enough to pay half
their sewing women II they showed to
tho buyers only the gowns that are
chosen by the women of smart Euro
pean society. The American buyer de-
cious. that brings the crowd in front Of
the show window and gives a chance
for publicity. He does this for COM
mercial reasons and because he knows
that the women OF America demand thtsf
kind Of costumery.
What are known as the clothes of
a lady do not change often. Exclusive
women who go in for good grooming.
who have high social position and who
are independent OF any 1imelight
caused by capricious dressing, care very
little whether they wear their clothes
two seasons or four. Such an attitude
would not pay the electric light bill in
the 5th avenue shops. There are ten

and 1t IL the 10000 who must be Dress
ed, and who give US our incomes. But"

try. If any one wants them-and re-
turning to the original subject, gray is
one of the colors chosen by the French
lady"
No Frills In France.
The reporter who goes among the
new clothes and divides them into these
two classes will be quickly assured
that the Frenchwomen whose gowns
have been brought over are not wear
ing frills and furbelows, going to Rus
sia for their ideas. or adopting any
quisite frocks of gray, white, mauve
and black.
The sketch shows a gown OF smoke
gray gabardine, which is offered as
street costume for woman who
wants to dress like French lady. The
skirt Is of gray satin, the gabardine
flounces touching each other and EN-
broidered in dull silver and gray silk.
There is a turnover collar of silver
cloth covered with white organdie, fas-
tened with bow of silver ribbon.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by0Iocal applications. as they Wcannd
reach the diseased portion Of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an infamed condi-
ton of the mucous lining of the Eusta-
chan Tube. When this tube Is inflamed
you have a rumbling sound or imperfect
hearing. and when it is entirely closed.
Deafness is the result and unless the in
flammation can be taken out and this
tube restored to its normal condition,
hearing will be- destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh,
which is nothing but an inflamed condi-
ton OF the mucous surfaces.
