Teddy Fox that others might have dis
covered the fact that Mr. and Mrs.
He thought il was all his own secret.
50 as he stole softly along under the
alder bushes on the bank OF the
Laughing Brook he forgot for once to
watch out for others. He thought of
nothing but Mr.. and Mrs. Quack He

from Eeddy. instead of to him. but il
shows how sometimes even such a
~hrewd fellow as Reddy Fox will be
careless.
Presently he could get a glimpse or
the Smiling Pool through the bushes.
and he knew that he would soon he
where he could see all over il with
his eyes fixed eagerly on the Smiling
Pool. he crept slowly and carefully
nearer and nearer. He was almost to
the place where the bushes stopped.
Just in front of him was an old fallen
log From the other side of that he

the Smiling Pool. He leaped lightly
up on the old log. and then just the
slightest sound drew his ets down.
There. stretched out at full length. just
beneath him. was Farmer Brown

right u 3 in his mouth. Then he al
most turned a back somersault in his

81. ciHl Correspondence Of The Star.
NEW YORK. April I9.-It would not
hs an easy task to count the number
Of gowns that France has sent over and
America has copied that owe their ex-
isteuce chiefly to the manipulation of
s,lack and white founces. Cheruit,
paquin, Callot and Agnes are some of
the designers who have given full run
to their fancy III this manner.
Evidently there was vast stock of
lace left over in the Paris warehouses,
and in those mysterious rooms in the
Paris ateIiers out of which small girls
excitedly scamper. bearing gifts of pre-
cious materials to the designers below
stairs.
surely there couldn't have been much
lace manufactured in Europe during
the last year. and yet there is 10 suG-
gestion of the latter fact in the thou
sand or more models that were shown
10 the American buyers this spring.
Some novelty laCes were introduced
and some imitation lace that was vast
" expensive. like the idea that
Doeuillet had for instance. of making
lace designs with the finest of silk
braid on ret foundation. There is a
kind of lace fashioned in this manner
which was invented by the house of
taIlot some years ago. and which was
The latter name was given 20 it be-
cause it looked rs though strings of
vermccIli had been splashed against a

A Great Surprise for Reddy
Fox.

Farmer Browns boy was moi The only
one who had planned a morning call
at the Smiling Pool. Oh. my. no, Peter
Rabbit had fully intended to pay Mr..
and Mrs. Quack n visit. The only rea-
son that he didn't was a very good one.
He didn't dare to. He didn't dare to
for the very good reason that between
the dear Old Brier Patch and the SmiI-

ing for Meadow mice. And then when
Old Man Coyote had disappeared he
saw Redtail the Hawk swinging round
and round in great circles high in the
air. and he knew that those wonderful
eyes of Redtaifs would see him the
very minute he left the dear Old Brier
Patch.
SO Peter decided that the best place
for him that morning was right at
home in the dear Old Brier Patch. He
knew it was when little later he hap
pened to look out over the Green Mead
ows and saw Reddy Fox trotting
toward the Smiling Pool. Peter.watch-
ed him with little troubled frown.

knows about Mr.. and Mrs. Quack?"
Then he laughed happily as he remem-
bered that he had seen Farmer Browns
Boy heading that way little while be-
fore and hadn't seen him come back.
Perhaps Reddy will get a little sur
prise thought Peter. and hoped with
all his might that he would
Now. Reddy knew perfectly well that
he had no business to be trottinE over
to the Smiling Pool in broad daylight
He knew it was foolish If Granny
Fox had known she would have said
that it was worse than foolish. But
the truth is Reddy hadn't been able
to get the thought of these ducks out
of his mind. You know. he had dis
covered Mr. and Mrs. Quack in the
Smiling Pool the night before. The
more ne thought about them the more
it seemed to him that he just must have
one of them. He knew that the wise
and smart thing to do was to wait UNI
til night and once more hide beside
the Smiling Pool, as he did before This
is what he fully intended to do.
But thinking about those ducks awak
ened such longing TO know if the,
We're still there that He finally made
up his mind that he had got to find
out. 1t was foolish. He was likely tt
be seen. He might spoil his chances OF
catching one of them that night b. put
ting them on their guard. He knew
all this, but he just couldn't rest un
til he had had one more peep at them
"I'll just run over and hide in the

to himself. They'll never see M

EASTER FAVORS.

charming Jack Horner pie for a
children's party in Easter week is a
big head of cabbage. This is in reality
big tin pan covered with green paper
cabbage leaves. In the pan are placed
the gifts, each with long ribbon at
tached which leads through the leaves
and is placed in front of the child for
whom the gift is chosen. Among the
cabbage leaves are small rabbits, each
with a tiny carrot in his mouth. The
ends of the ribbons are tied to the feet
of little chickens, which are placed at
the different plates.
The rabbits for this pie are no more
than rabbits cut out Of crepe paper,
stamped with Easter designs and past
ed on cardboard to give them consist
ency.
Many other attractive favors can be
made by FASTING the stamped crepe pa
per designs on cardboard and cutting
them out. Chickens, ra bbits, daffodils
and other sprinslike and Easterlike
figures come in the new crepe papers.
For bonbons or sailed almonds tiny
paper patty cases covered with frills
of white. green or pale yellow paper,
with one of the cut-out adhesive seals
pasted on one side, are easy to make
and pretty: Prettier ones can be made
with handles of wire. wound with pa
per strips, and decorated with tiny
punches Of paper flowers.
Artificial daffodils are among the
newer paper flowers that are really
successful. Jack horner pie can be
made with a covering of green and
white paper founces and ruffles and
puffs, with paper daffodils stuck on
the top. and each of the ribbons end
ing in daffodil at one of the guests
places. Such a pie would be suitable
for young girls luncheon.
Daffodil dolls are another dainty
favor. They are paper daffodils, with
tiny dolls head buried deep in the
heart of each.

of fullness in>both bodice and legs, and
the little belt is added by way of adorn-
ment more than anything else.
When you make the boomers sew a
loose band around the gathers at the
knees-a band that comes quite close
to the leg but without binding it, as an
elastic band does. az The circulation
should never be impeded, for that in
