CHAPTER x.

A few days after Wilson's recogni-
tion of K, two most exciting things
happened to Sidney. One was that
Christine asked her to be maid of
honor at her wedding. The other was
more wonderful. She was accepted,
and given her cap.
Because she could not get home that
night, and because the little house had
no telephone, she wrote the news to
her mother and sent note to LIE
Moyne.
X. found the note on the hall table
when he got home that night, and car
ried it upstairs to read. Whatever
faint hope he might have had that her
youth would prevent her acceptance
he knew now was over. With the let
ter in his hand, he sat by his table
and looked ahead into the empty years.
Not quite empty, of course. She would
be coming home.
But more and more the life of the
hospital would engross her. He sur
missed, too, very shrewdly, that, had he
ever had hope that she might come
to care for him, his very presence in
the little house initiated against him.
There was none of the illusion of sep
aration; he was always there, like Ka-

Interesting Skirts.

In view of the American woman's
invariable objection to drapery In heI
suits, and in Difference to the desire
for something extremely simple and
in one piece, the tailored skirt foI
spring, while having broken lines, will
express drapery in very limited de-
gree.
Thus, instead of being gored and
scanned, so as to assume the barrel
shape, the new "tonneau" skirts Of
tailored type are often cut in two cir,
cular portions; an upper part, extend1
ing from the hip to the knee, and a
lower part, from hem to knee, these
circular pieces being joined in seam
at their widest spread. The result is
a very interesting new skirt, narrow
at waist and hem and wide at the
knee Cor point of joining), and, there
fore, of barrel type. There will be
difference of at least yard In the
width of this type of skirt through the
center and at hem and waist.
The midland journal., 1917-03-02

Just by way of varying the styles in
little maids thin, white dresses a few
models have been presented having
double skirts. Most of the dresses
made in this way are short-waisted,
with half or three-quarter-length
sleeves. Overskirts are about as long
as the skirt under them, and their full
ness is disposed in plaits, as a rule,
although shirrings and smockings are
well considered.
Batiste seems to be the favOrite ma
terial for little girls dresses, but any
of the fine sheer cotton fabrics answer
the purpose. The finest weaves are
chosen in order that laundering will
have them unchanged. Cheaper grades,
in sheer cOttons, thicken up and lose
their crispness and daintiness from
Tubing.
The little dress shown in the picture
is a pretty model, with double skirt,
for the tiny maid of three years or so.
1t has baby waist, with elbow-length
sleeves and round neck, and fastens in
the back with very small pearl but
tons. Embroidered chiffon organdie
and narrow val insertion and edging
are the time-honored means for en-
bellishing nearly all these dainty
"dress-up" frocks. Bands of embroid-
cred organdie are set in, between
groups of fine tucks, at the front and
back of the waist. There is a narrow
frill of lace about the neck and at the
edge of the bands that contine the
sleeves.
The underskirt is straight about the

a hat, coat, and bag, each evil

pany, provide an equipment for spring
that is above criticism. Silk jersey,
suede, and woolens, in fascinating
colors, present their several lures, and
panne velvet is among the possibilities
that engage the attention of fashion
ables when they consider spring coats.
1t seems that we may choose coats in
any length we see fit, but that a
preference is already evident for half
and three-quarter length garments.
Even the motorcoat, which has been
long and broad and big in every way,
Is rumored to the shrinking in all di-
rections- the collar.
The coat shown in the picture is of
silk jersey in Talbot rose. 1t has a
square cape collar, overlaid with a
collar Of crepe. 1t is plain and straight
hanging and has wide girdle of the

same material. 1t fastens at the front
with covered buttons.
The hat of gray silk figures with
little rose-colored flower sprays and
faced with rose-colored braid Id
trimmed with a fan of plated silA
at the front. A narrow band Of black
velvet ribbon is tied in small bow
below the fan. The bag employs the
same silk as the hat, with plain gray
silk, and is suspended by cords cow
cred with the plain silk. 1t is simple
but very clever design, and is lined
with rose-colored silk.
This matching up Of hat, coat, and
bag is more a matter Of color than OF
materials. The hat may be of straw
and silk, the bag Of silk, and the coat
of any material you choose. If In
doubt on this point you may select

tie. When she opened the door, she
called Mother" from the hall. If
Anna did not answer, she called him,
in much the same voice.
Sidney's letter was not the only one
he received that day. When, in re-
sponse to Katie's summons, he rose
heavily and prepared for dinner, he
found an unopened envelope on the
table. 1t was from Max Wilson:
Dear Le Moyne-I have a feeling of deli
cacy about trying to see you again so
soon. I'm bound to respect your Seclu-
sion. But there are some things that have
got to be discussed.
1t takes courage to step down from the
pinnacle you stood on. So it's not cow
ardice that has set you down here. It's
wrong conception. And I've thought of
two things. The first, and best, is for you
to go back. No one has taken your place,
because no one could do the work. But
if that's out of the question-and only you
know that, for only you know the facts
the next best thing is this, and in all hu-
manity I make the suggestion.
Take the State exams under your pres
ent name, and when you've got your GER
tificate. come in with me. This isn't mag
nanimity. I'll be getting much more than
l give.
Think it over, old man. NJ. W.
1t is curious fact that man who
is absolutely untrustworthy about
women is often the soul of honor to
other men. The younger Wilson, talk
ing his pleasures lightly and not too
discriminatingly, was making an offer
that meant his ultimate eclipse, and
doing it cheerfully, with his eyes open.
X. was moved. 1t was like Max to
make such an offer, like him to do it
as if he were asking favor and not
comforting one. But the offer left him
untempted. He had weighed himself
in the balance, and found himself
wanting. No tablet on the college wall
could change that. And when, late
that night, Wilson found him on the
balcony and added appeal to argu-
ment, the situation remained un-
changed. He realized its hopelessness
when X. lapsed into whimsical humOr.

her mother, Anna, and her old
