could find there. AS for Mr.. and Mrs.
Quack. they slept peacefully side by
side among the rushes of the Smiling
Pool all the night.
They were awake very early the next
morning, for Mr.. and Mrs. Quack are
very early risers. After breakfast they
began to talk over what they should
do. The Smiling Pool was such an open
place that the very thought of staying
there all day made them very nervous.
But Mr.. Quack couldn't fly, because of
the broken wing, broken. you remem-
swim down the Laughing Brook to the
Big River wodld. quite as likely as not,
be to swim right into danger from those
terrible guns. Jerry Muskrat over
heard them talking.
Take my advice and stay right
here said he. NO hunters with ter
rib1e guns ever come here. They never.
in the wide world. will think of look
ing for you here. If you don't stay You
will be foolish"
Il guess Jerry is right said Mr..
Quack. Il don't see anything else to
do. | cant fly and I'm not very strong
yet. though since I've had something TO
eat | feel great deal better. If any
hunters do come. you can fly away. my
dear. and I'll hide under the bank of
the Laughing Brook. where the alder
bushes hang over. | hope Jerry is right
and no hunter will come, for like the
Smiling Pool"
Just then Sammy Jay came flying
over to see how Mr.. and Mrs. Quack
We're. He perched in the top of the Big
Hickory tree. and when he found out
what they were talking about he ad-
vised them just as Jerry Muskrat had.
Suddenly he stopped talking and look
ed far across the Green Meadows. Il
declare" said he. II believe Farmer
Browns Boy is coming over here to
bring You some breakfast
Instantly Mrs. Quack was in ter
rible fright. There is nothing to be
afraid Of" said Sammy. He hasn't got
gun"
But this didn't relieve Mrs. Quack a
bit She hurried Mr.. Quack up into the
Laughing Brook and saw him safely
hidden. Then she swan back to the
Smiling Pool and there rose into the
air ON her stout wings and headed to-
ward the Big River Farmer Browns
Boy saw her.
That duck certainly is wild said he
to himself. Il thought perhaps l could
steal near enough to have a good look
at her. it being SO early in the morn

and he knew who had warned Mrs.

more uncomfortable than to see some
one else eating when you are very nun
ery yourself and have nothing. There
they were. just out of reach, and he
knew by the way they acted that they
meant to keep out of reach. They
didn't know he was there. OF this he
was sure But presently he was equally
sure that they didn't intend to take any
risks
Still, he remained hidden, hoping that
for Just a little minute one OF them
might forget and be careless. AT last
they finished their dinner. Then they
swan over among the broken down
bulrushes where the Black Shadows lay
deepest He couldn't see them. but he
could hear them saying good night to
each other in low voices. Then all was
still. save for the joyous chorus OF the
Hylas singing in the Smiling Pool Mr.
and Mrs Quack had gone to bed for the
, light and they were where ReddE could
not get them.
Reddy sighed. 1t was soft little
sigh of disappointment, so soft that no
one heard It. Then, as carefully as ne
had crept to his hiding place. he stole
away. He didn't want any one to know
that he had been there. You see. he
meant to come again the next night. He
hadn't given up hope that sooner or
later he would dine on Mr.. or Mrs.
Quack But if they should suspect that
he had been there that night they would
always be watching for him to come
back So he took just as much care in
leaving the Smiling Pool as he had in
coming to it. When he felt that he
could do so safely he trotted swiftly

MORE STRENGTH FOR

If all the old people in Washing

Farmer Browns Boy Makes
an Early Visit.

Reddy Fox knows when other people
are too smart for him. Just as soon as
he saw that Mrs. Quack was taking the
greatest care not to swim too near the
shore of the Smiling Pool or to allow
Mr.. Quack to, he knew that she was
wise in the ways of the Great World.
too wise to let her stomach steal away
her brains, as the saying is when peo-
pie allow the pleasure Of eating to
make them needless and careless. He
saw that Mr.. and Mrs. Quack were
having splendid dinner and this made
1t all the harder for him. You know

combination that is becoming: and
where thin summer materials are EN-
ployed you can make the entire skirt
in one piece and trim the bottom with
ruffles. Even one ruff1e is charming.
and there is no doubt that skirts with
ruff1ed edges outWear those finished
with a hem.
Materials adapted to this sort of dress
are taffeta. sport silks and washable
silks. Japanese and Chinese crepes.

or linen fabric. Evening ia brics, how

are not suitable for such dress.

The Jockey cap type of hat, which
was introduced in Paris a couple of
seasons ago, is one of the spring models
in silk and straw.
Tiny ostrich plumes trim some Of the
new hats. and a lovely one is made of
horsehair braid with the little plumes
gathered. some eight or ten of them, at
one side of the crown.
Wells are attached to many of the
spring hats They are round or square
and fastened snugly around the lower
part of the crown with trimming bands
of flowers.
One charming hat of this sort shows
a Veil that just covers the eyes in front
and drops almost to the shoulders at
the back. 1t is decidedly effective.
New automobile wells are made with
glass-clear mica over the face. These
are truly comfortable to wear, for they
give the face protection from dust and
wind. and. at the same time. do not
smother it; for there are tiny holes for
ventilation in the mica.
Various methods are taken for pro-
new skirts. Sometimes foundation of
net, held out with hoops of bone or
wire, is worn under the skirt. Some
times the fullness is held out by means
shape.
, The measurement of the lower edge
of the skirts held out by these various
methods is stupendous-especia COM
pared with the very narrow skirts we
were wearing a year or ago. Some
| of the new ones measure six and half
| yards and even more.
| The bertha has come back again, or,
| at least. a drapery of lace or other soft
| material about the shoulders and bust
| that is strongly reminiscent Of the
\ bertha. This drapery is especially at
tractive used with sleeves that are off
| the shoulders - the dropped effect of
| Victorian fame.
| Hand embroidery is used on summer
| frocks. Often 1T outlines conventional
designs in beads. Sometimes big silk
| stitches making conventional flower
| designs are used in contrasting coiors
to the color Of the frock. The beads
! used in this embroidery are of glass
and porcelain and Jet and steel.
Artificial flowers find a place on aft
| ernoon and evening frocks rhey are
used much like embroidery, some times.

| over the net or tulle or lace of an even
ing frock. or used to trim the girdle Of
| a satin frock.
Sometimes, too, embroidered flowers
and artificial ones are strikingIy COM
| bined. so that one can with dificulty
| tell where the one ends and the other
begins.
Although wide g1rdles are used 70 a
| large extent, narrow perhaps three
iinch-velvet ribbon Is very effectively
used with some of the full-skirted
models.
Alpaca is another fabric that, II ia
predicted, will find much favor this
spring.

longer on one side than the other, But

be carefully balanced.

A New Kind of Cuirass.

Another novelty that catches hold of
the attention is a cuirass made of taf-
feta which drops in a curved line at
the sides and ends in a series of battle
ments on the first slope of the hips.
There are two models made in this way,
and they promise to make friends very
quickly. The one shown in the sketch
combines two two popular French fea-
lures in clotheS-a CuiraSs with an 1880
decolletage and black taffeta embroi-
dered with enormous gold flowers. The
latter is used as an overskirt over a
plain, black skirt that has border of
the embroidered taffeta. There is no
doubt about the fact that overskirts
are becoming fashionab BILE and that it is
not always necessary to have the lower
skirt of the same fabric or the same
color.
Before you stop looking at this sketch
take in this detail, for it is important
the 1880 line across the shoulders is
finished with a bertha of tulle and gold
lace, and between the straight shoul-
der straps and the line of the blouse
there is a piece of fiesh-colored tulle
which is almost invisible. 1t is not in
tended 10 be seen. but to be felt, for it
makes the bodice comfortable.

and some show frayed edges. Some.
too, show picot edge. These ruches
are used to trim skirts-sometim a
skirt is no more than a tulle founda-

most covering it's surface. They are
used, too. around the shoulders and at
the neck and at every part of the
sleeve.

STRAIGHT BAsQUEs OF SILKS ARE NEW.
BY ANNE RITTENHoUsE.

sp. cial Correspondence of The Star
NEW YORK, April 1.-THE majority
,of women are disappointed in that
there is nothing strikingly new for
evening wear among the new French
gowns: and yet if one searches through
the great mass of clothes that have
been sent over here from faf's TINS
wear searches with lantern as ola
Diogeues for an honest man. one STUN
hles across some charming idea when
Is not only different from what has
been, but which may he a significant
straw that shows what will be.
There is the cartridge skirt which
many people enormously call the bar
rel skirt. 1t is a novelty. 1t was ex-
plotted by both Callot and Lanvin and.
although the American women say they
do not like it, it will undoubtedly be
one of the smart features of the late
spring season. Lanvin accentuates it
and Callot modifes it. and the Amer
lean copies are in miniature
! The layman may not understand
what is meant by the cartridge skirt,
so il NAV not be tiresome to take up
space to explain that all kinds of gar
rial is arranged in round. open pleats,
the shape of huge cartridge
( Lanvin takes taffeta, for instance,
and making a skirt of it. arranses it
into large, open cartridge pleats touch
ing each other and extending upon the
edge of the bodice so that they form
the high, broad hip line of the Eliza
bethan era. Lanvin also makes hat,
which is shown at the smart 5th ave-
rue houses here. 1t is called the cart
ridge hat, because, on the brim and
low crown of thin straw, she has placed
in the form of a plaque across the
crown and extending as far out as the
brim cartridge arrangement of Gobe
lin green silk net.
When Is Skirt Barrel Skirt?
The barrel skirt is something diff
ferent: and 1t is not well understood
IN. this country. because the name has
been casually given to others: but the
actual skirt is rare. Every dealer in
clothes will show you something that
he calls barrel skirt. and often it
has no more relation to a barrel than a
hen to palm tree.
All YOU have to keep in your mind
when you're hunting this skirt is that
II is shaped like barrel, small at both
ends and distended in the middle with
bands of material going around the.
barrel. That's simple enough, isn't it?
These two novelties, the cartridge
skirt and the barrel skirt, have not
been featured before either in France
or in this country. and il is well to fix |
your mind upon them a s the kind of
thing that may prevail later on, even
though at the present moment were
indulging in a riot of Louis Nv and
Louis Philippe skirts.
The enormous distension of the hips
is not new. at least in New York, where
this kind of skirt has been worn on the
stage since last November, but the
French dressmakers have accentuated

What's New in Shoes?

Anybody who predicted that so-called
fancy footwear" would be out OF
fashion this spring made p wrong
prediction. In view of present condi-
tions. that's certainty. 1t may be
true that last autumn many of the ex-
treme styles OF ornate footgear that
had been worn during the summer
were discarded. But 1t is also true that
they were discarded simply to make
way for other styles of fancy foot
gear.
This spring the shops are as far
from showing plain black boots and
boots and shoes Of this spring are
quite unlike those of last
To begin with. perhaps the greatest
novelty is the return of the colonial
pump. 1t Is here. in all its glory OF
tongue. and most women are thankful
to see it again. For surely the colon
ia1 pump is comfort itself. 1t stays on
without rubbing at the heel, which is
something few other cuts of pump do.
Colonial pumps are made in patent
leather, in black kid and in colors

buckles, and the colored, ones have

buckles covered with the colored kid.
Buckskin shoes are worn this spring.
There are some very good high cream
and light tan buckskin boots, both
buttoned and laced. with Franch heels,
that are admirable for street wear
with light frocks
The blind eyelets are still used for
laced boots. and the round laces Cut
work is shown on some of the white
kid and buckskin boots. and also on
those of black patent leather. 1t
forms a decorative band on each side
of the front lacings.
