Children's Evening Story

, P1gg was out in the field, waiting for
a nice ball to come along so he could
catch 1t, and now was his chance. He
had such bright eyes, almost like his
sisters, and he could e the ball
away up in the white clouds, even
though none Of the other players
could. He kept his eyes on it, and
got his paws all ready to catch it when
it came down. And pretty soon it did
begin to come down, for yov know 1t
nothing to hold it. OF course not, and
l know you understand how that Is.
Well, Buddy managed to catch that
ball, though it came down very swift
ly, and Jimmie Wibblewobble was out.
Fine catch, Buddy! Fine!" cried
Billie Bushytail.
Eyes, and now it's Buddy's turn to
bat" said Bawly, the frog. Get up.
Buddy. I'll pitch you a nice one"
So Buddy got up to home plate,
which was a fat stone, you know, and
he held his bat ready to knock the
ball ouL Of sight, if possible.
Bawly threw him a nice, easy ball,
and Buddy struck at it. He hit, too,
which Is better. Oh! such a hit as he
gave that ball! It's a good thing balls
don't have feelings, l think, or bats
either, for that matter.
We'll. as sOOn as he hit the ball Bud
dy started to run for the bases. Oh,
how fast he ran, but something hap
pened. The bafl didn't go as far as
he thought it would. No, it fell down
right near Sammie Littletail, and Sam
ME picked it up and ran toward Bud
dy with it.
He knew If he could touch Buddy
| with the ball before Buddy got back to
home plate, that Buddy would be out
| and then Sammie could bat again.
So Sammie ran after Buddy and
| Buddy ran all around the bases, hop.
ing he could make a home run and
| get there safe. But 1t was hard work.
| Faster and faster he ran and faster
and faster hoped Sammie after him
run, Buddy! RUM" cried Bully the
frog.
T-am-running!" painted Buddy.
Catch him, Sammie! Catch him!"
| cried Bawly, and Sammie gave three
tremendous hops to catch Buddy.
But by this time Buddy was nearly
| at home plate, where he would be
safe. And the worst of it was that
| Sammie was almost there, too.
Then, with his last breath, and civ
ing a spSing and a hop that was so
big that it took him close to Buddy,
Sammie stretched out his paw with
the ball in and tried to touch Buddy.
But do you s'pose he did? No, sir, he
didn't, and Buddy got home safe, and
wasn't put out after all.
WELL said \Sammie, after he had
gotten his breath, IF you had had a
tail sticking out behind you I would
have touched that and you'd have
been out"
I'm glad I haven't a TAIL" said
Buddy as he sat down on the grass
to rest, and then, after a while, the
game went on and lasted until dark.

Now. I'm going to tell you in the
story after this one about Bnghteyes,
Buddy and the turnip-that Is, in case
/ hear a potato bug sing a song that
puts the rag doll to sleep, so she won't
cry and wake up the pussy cat.

at tea time she came in smiling and
refused to tell me where she had been.
She is up stairs in her room now. I
am going to have her packed up to-
morrow and sent back to St. Prisca's.
1t is really too disgraceful. Gone a
whole day and won't tell where she
went! Tom, it Is all your fault"
Tom drew his chair closer to that
of his sister and this time showed evil
dent interest in the case of the little
orphan girl.
Suppose l could tell you where
the girl was yesterday. Suppose
could prove to you that she left the
house on! an expedition to find the one
to whom she felt herself indebted for
her little fling In the world of normal
pleasure and happiness. l believe she
did ask you who it was and you told
her. Well, could you very much blame
her il you knew that her little expedi-
ton yesterday was a trip to the office
Of that benefactor to tell him of her
gratitude and to thank him with all
the sweetness and innocence of the
child that she is for what she consid-
ers the turning point Of her career!
Without exactly knowing how, she re
allies that these weeks have saved
her from what might have been a ship
wreck. And then, of course, suppose
you knew that that humble benefactor,
quite in spite Of himself, persuaded
the girl ITO have luncheon with him

with a promise not to tell where she
had been, would you blame her very
much? I thought that I might it ex

New York, May 13.-There is some.
thing particularly appealing to the
dainty, w~ell-groomed woman, about
ribbon trimmed, befrilled petticoats;
they cannot be banished for long from

cinating that n is tempted to wear

the sheerest of organdy, chiffon or
Georgette frocks in order that their
beauty may be shown. Many of these
petticoats are boned, corded or wired,
in order that the frocks, under which
they are worn, may have the proper
swing. For the dance there are net
and taffeta creations, made with petal
upon petal, in rose-like formation, the
edges of the petaled rufles pinked or
picoted. For the ergandy afternoon
frock, the slip is favored, of net and
organdy, lace and ribbon trimmed. The
bodice of the slip is usually a straight,
wide band of ribbon, lace, or a dainty
embroidery %flouncing, held in place
with shoulder straps of ribbon or lace.
It is not unusual to see a frilly petit
coat Of dark blue or red t~affeta, the
ruffles pinked and finished with an
similar lace edge.
The Underbodice.
The underbodice, to keep pace with
the petticoat must be very dainty in
| deed. In a dark blue taffeta petticoat
| the skirt portion is attached at the
normal waist-line to a pale pink MORE
bodice. The bodice is merely a straight
| band of MORE ribbon held over the
shoulders by narrow pink ribbons. The
upper edge Of the bodice is effectively
trimmed with small silk rosebuds.
Breakfast Coat and PettIeoat.
One of the novelties Of the season
is the breakfast set consisting Of coat,
petticoat and boudoir cap. The coat
and skirt illustrated here show a par
ticularly good combination; the coat Is
developed in pongee, and the skirt lie
OF taffeta, banded in the same taneta,
the bands edged with narrow Val
enciennes lace. The deep STRAP
pockets on the coat give 1t the appear
ance of a sport garment. A charming
little cap Of nat and ribbon completes
the set most attractively. Many OF
these sets are developed in plain ma
terials, wolfe, wash satin, lawn and the
like, and are trimmed with bands, col

Curl PAPERS have their uses, mis-
uses and abuses. AS far as keep
ing the hair in curl Is concerned,
they are much better than q not
iron. This takes the oil from a
hair, eventually cracking the ENDS.
and dimming the natural lustre OF
the locks. The curl paper, curl Is
lufher and more natural looking
and hence more becoming.
Misuses? Even curl papers are
harmful if the hair is tied up too
tight In them, and kept tied hour
after hour. Tho pressure and the
lack of air-for hair needs breath
as we'll as plants and people-wil
keen the new hairs from forming,
since all tho strength will go to re-
uourish the abused follicles.
Abuses-these r moro or less
psychological. If you are ccus-
toned to seeing yourself sur
rounded by q halo Of tight little
paper wads, you are not apt to
think yourself any the neater or
prettier. If others . you going
about. this way, they certainly will
not praise your beauty. For curl
papers are not becoming, whatever
else they may be.
Besides, they are a vicious habit.
II you really must curl your hair
and there are 10 many ways OF ar
ranging straight hair that 1t isn't
really necessary nee out of ten
times-you had better s curriers'
than irons. But you car wet the
hair, and sit nea heat or in the
sun, to dry it quickly, and soon
have the hair out again and done up
neatly. You can wear the curriers'
at night, when no one see them,
and take them of first thing in
the morning. ,
But it Is chiefly because Of the
careless appearance they give the
woman that curl papers are to be
condemned.
