Summary Frock

Here is little summery frock of
organdie which might just as we'll be

Just so it is sheer and crisp enough.
There is refinement in sheer fabrics
which Is half their charm, and this ac-
counts for the use of lively cofors in
transparent cotton and silk goods.
Either may be used to make dress
exactly like the model pictured which
Is sure to compel admiration.
There is nothing difficult in its con-
struction, so that the home dress
maker will be able to turn it out as
satisfactorily as professional 1t is
merely straight, full skirt and a
gathered blouse, joined at the waist
line by narrow belt But it's up-to-
dateness is apparent in the method of
decorating the skirt, and in the man

picture it is shown in plain white or

thin summer fabric that will not look
well made up in this way.

MAKING Gunpowder.

A process has been devised by the
use of which gunpowder and other
high explosives can be manufactured
aboard railway train in motion. The
machinery includes device for per-
forming all the essential operations of
powder making, from the first com

ing cylinder for giving the grains their
final polish. If the whole proves as
practical as the inventor believes it
will its effect will be to render pow
der plants less liable to destruction
in time of war than is the case at
present. 1t also will be possible to
manufacture explosives in the very
train that is carrying them to the
front.

Almost all tulle wells fall from caps
made OF this ethereal material. One
of these caps was covered with small
shirred tucks massed together. A frill
of tulle fell over the brow, and the
long ample veil of tulle streamed from
the back of the cap. A wreath made
of white roses and orange blossoms
was posed at a sprightly tilt about it,
and an outstanding spray of roses and

The Return Of Lem.


Mrs. Brown and the children went
back to Sheffield on Sunday SO that
Monday morning work could begin
early. She went out to work three
days week and on the other three did
washings at home. 1t was the end Of
summer and school would soon begin;
for another week or two Mary Alice
could stay at home while her mother
went out. After that decision must
be made Should Mary Alice forego
further, schooling for economic reasons
and either stay at home to enable Mrs.
Brown to work out, or get job her
self so that her mother could remain at
home, doing such work as she could at
her own tubs? The rent must be
paid, Dicky must have. milk. Mrs.
Brown almost regretted the two weeks
of idleness; she would have to work
twice as hard to pay for them.
One night Francis Willett met Mary
Alice on Clipper HILL As usual he
took the wagon tongue from her hand
and started to draw the load upsthe
long slope.
'T'm not comm here any more said
Mary Alice
"Why not?''
"And I've got job: I'm goin' to

more about feet and legs and spines

Mary Alice answered something
very incoherent. Sudden tears blurred
before her eyes. Suppose this great
doctor should help Charlie? All the
way up the Hill she walked in silence.

tries are planning campaign upon
America for the purpose of induc-

native lands to aid in the rebuilding

want the accumulated capital which
these men will bring back with them;
and 100000 men with $500 each
would mean an addition to the capital

is probable that great stretches of Eu-

BETTER THAN ANY POCKETS
For Absolute Safety, the Old Lady's
Plan Was Pretty Well -
Perfect.

It was in the Pennsylvania depot at
Jersey City. A man who had been half
asleep on one of the benches for some
time suddenly reused up, carried his
hand to the breast pocket of his coat
and then called out:
'T have been robbed! Someone has
picked my pocket"
Have much money!" asked an old
lady who sat near him.
"Over $40"
"Sakes alive! but what a loss Sure
you had it when you left homer"
"Of course am"
) Didn't leave it under your pillar. or
change your coat?"
"No!"
Il noticed you feeling around your
coattails before you went to sleep. Bet
ter look back there before you give
up"
He carried his hand back, and ten
to sight He began to apologize and
stammer, but the old lady threw up
her hands and checked him with:
Young man, you orter be more
keerful, you might of accused me of
stealth that money. and it would have
been nice thing for my church folks
to hear of, wouldn't it? When the
news got home to my old man he'd
have been so kerflustrated that he'd
have forgotten to feed the shoats or
milk the cows, and there's no knowing
how he'd have got along locking up
the house and going to bed"
"Oh, I shouldn't have accused you.
ma'am," protested the man.
Wall, I'm glad on it, and being as
this excitement has come up about
picking pockets guess I'll see If my
money and ticket is safe"
And she reached down, slipped off a
calfskin shoe from her right foot, and
peered intently into it, with the re-
mark:
There's ticket and there's dol
lar bill, and hain't been robbed. Just
try it. young man. Beats coat tail and
all other pockets all holler. Got to
stand you on your head to git it, and
every time you sot your foot down you
know it's thar. I've carried SIT all

by cutting the goods crosswise into
strips and joining them into one long
strip. This is to be hemmed on the
sewing machine in the narrowest pos
sible hem, along both raw edges. 1t is
gathered lengthwise along the center.
and this work is also done on the ma
chine Or if plated ruching is pre-
ferred the hemmed strip is laid in dou-
BILE box plaits and these are basted
down and afterward stitched down on
the machine. They may be made Of
taffeta silk.
The skirt is hemmed in three-inch
hem and two groups of narrow tucks
introduced in it, one above the hem
and the other above the knees. The
ruching is set on above and below the
lower tucks, and at the lower side Of
the other group. 1t is used for joining
wide frill to the elbow sleeves and
as decoration for the blouse.
The blouse opens at the front in a
v, and one might expect it to be fin
ished with quaint fichu. But instead
1t is collared and capped in the unmis-
taxable 1915 mode, and instead of a
sash narrow ribbon girdle is fas-
tened with little cluster of cherries.

CHAPTER lv-continued.


Francis Willett came out again, this
time by himself. He arrived quite
early in the morning and announced
his intention of staying all day. The
chauffeur set down a great basket of
fruit by the side door before backing
his car to the road.
The children passed most of the
forenoon in the orchard, talking Of
this and that, viewing the increasingly
successful efforts of little Dick Brown
to walk, discussing the honors and du-
ties of a Galahad Knight. Francis
showed his companions some marvel
ous feats Of strength and agility, using
a tree limb for trapeze After din-
ner, when Charlie took his nap, Mary
Alice and Francis wandered away
from the house, along the old mill road
leading to the pond. Here stood an
ancient, iong-idle gristmill The log
dam and the old mill seemed to sleep
placidly among the elders.
.'This is awfully pretty, don't you
think so?' asked Mary Alice, as they
stood at the end of the dam.

The boy produced a piece of string,

birches, caught tiny grasshopper, and
became at once a sportsman. The
sinners were curious, but elusive.
'Look out, Francis, you'll fall in, y
called Mary Alice; for her companion
was creeping out along the dam.
'aThis isn't dangerous. Come on.
I'll let you fish. The sinners are big

But Mary Alice was timid. She
stood on the bank and watched Fran
els interestedly What a nice boy, she
thought He could do most anything;
he wasn't afraid. The old rotting
planks along the top of the dam might
crumble under foot and send him into
the pond, but he went boldly on. The
water in the fume was about ten feet
deep
Francis reached the dume, whose
boxlike sides stood three or four feet
higher than the dam. The boy drew

Equipped with simple form OF

an electric iron which automatically
maintains its temperature at any de-

band about the head, were brought to-
gether in a rosette of loops and orange
| blossoms on top of the head. A little
cluster of orange blossoms was poised
at each side, on the plated band, just
over the temple From the remainder
of the band the full long veil of tulle
depended.
The veil of lovely old lace shown in
the picture looks as if it might have
graced royal bride. 1t is shown in
two arrangements In one there is a
Juliet cap of pearl and crystal beads
and the veil is boxplaited across the
back and side, falling from a head
dress in keeping with it. In the other
arrangement the veil is laid in box
plaits across the brow and gathered in
at the back to form cap. Accepting
traditional ideas, orange blossoms and
buds are placed in little sprays at each
side and over the plating at the back.
There is no more appealing charm
than that of the veil draped with
orange blossoms about the brow. But
many bride foregoes it, choosing to
wear her orange blossoms in corsage
or wrist bouquet, for the sake of nov
city in the adjustment of her veil.

Do you know the value Of
hardship In the formation Of :
character? Faith counts for so
much in the performance of duty.
A sensible man can do pretty
nearly as much as he thinks he
can--that's faith In himself.
Mary Alice develops faith in
God, and she thinks that God
will give her the power to do
her work, no matter how big It
is.
