There are some dressmakers who are
still holding out that they will not re-
duce the width of the hens in frOcks
or suits, but isn't it rather foolish to
hold out against a Paris fashion that
has been accepted by the American
buyers?
Naturally a change in the silhouette
of the skirt is drastic thing. 1t can
not be lightly regarded by dressmak-
ers, tailOrs or the public. 1t is in this
garment that fashion takes its most
serious somersaults. The wrong cut
Of a skirt puts one more completely
out of the fashion picture than one
likes. Even the stole and the philOSo-
pher among women cannot success
fully stand this test. If woman cam
not buy a new skirt cut according to
the new pattern, she will cook up some
scheme in the sewing room by which
an old skirt can be let out or drawn in.
The voice of the prophet was lifted
early in the winter, foretelling the in
coming of narrow skirts in the early
spring, but few listened. The dress
makers shrugged their shoulders, the
ready-to-wear manufacturers kept on

AT A JAPANESE FESTIVAL
Like Country Fair Than Reli-

I went out to Ikegamishrine, q very
famous place, where the festival is at
tended by thousands. Inside the tenn
pie different families had set up their
little shrines and the people sat
around and peeled apples and
crunched them or smoked and gos-
siped, while others beat on the fish
mouth wooden gongs and conducted
the ceremonies. Coppers rained into
the big bins in front of the idols and
hundreds of candle prayers wavered
and flickered in the mass movement
Of religious riot. When the candle
was two-thirds burned it gave way to
another, for wax is valuable and can
be resold, and half prayer must not
occupy the place that might be given
to a whole one.
Some people were evidently In a
prayerful mood, but squawkers and
rubber apples on real branches will

Armstrong stared curiously. Sudden
ly he ran his hand across a dozen or
more green and brown certificates.
"Keystone Consolidated ~ he ex-
claimed, "why, your uncle could never
have known"
"KnOwn what" Intercepted Lima
vaguely.
THAT they have become one of the
most seasoned investments on the mar
ket. Two hundred shares, four hun
dred, two thousand. Preferred. Why,
Lima, you are an actual heiress. Very
carefully we must soak them off that
wall, for they represent something like
one hundred thousand dollars market
value"
And so, at the end of the straight
road so patiently traversed by gentle,
self-sacrificing Lima, there was fortune
and happiness supreme.

Suddenly the bicycle swerved, ana
crashed into a telegraph pole on the

in a helpless tangle. AS Pat came on,
Larry was eXtricating himself from

vanced quite readily, for Lima was In
his mind.
Did you call me, sir?" he inquired
81 did, if you are Mr.. Armstrong
'That is my name"

you are a real gentleman and l know

face. Will you do something for me?'
'Willingly if it is in my power" as
scented Armstrong with readiness.
The old man handed folded docu-
ment to Armstrong.
ITS my WILL" he explained, land /
trust it to you. / don't leave much,
only this old shack. but with the
ground it will sell for a few hundred
dollars. It's all for Lima, the only one
of the crowd who has stuck to me
through thick and thin"
And Lima herself appeared as Arm
strong was about to leave. And Arm
strong had the pleasure of escorting
her home. After that he met her sew
eral times. Armstrong extended his
vacation, each day more and more at
tracted by the sweet girl who was be-
ginning to love him.
One day Uncle Peter died. 1t was
after the funeral that Armstrong met
Lima and told her of the will. She
was as grateful for the small bequeSt
as though her uncle had left a palace.
Dear old uncle" she murmured, the
tears in her eyes. II am glad l was
a comfort to him"
And then, as they strolled through
the woods, Armstrong felt that he
could no longer restrain his love. Sim
ply, earnestly he asked her to become
his wife.

yours" suggested Armstrong as they
neared the old hut.
