MOSQUITOES

The mosquito is a small, pernicious
insect of the winged variety which
goes around punching holes in sum-
mer bOardeTs and singing about it.
It is more subtle and insinuating
and somewhat less abrupt than a
humble bee, but no less effective.
Having been pUnctured on various
spots and occasions by both, we are
in a position to speak authoritative
ly. Last summer we met a large, pot
bellied he-mOsquito, which serenad-
ed our left leg Is times with the same
song without changing his needle
once.
Experience teaches that a mos
quito can survive anything but oil of
citronella or a hearty slap on the
back.

AND NOW THE PETTIBoCKER
New Enlargement Designed for
Women Who Dance, Skate or En-
gage in Active Work.

A new undergarment of silk jersey,
designed for women who skate, dance
or do active war work, has been
named the Pettibocker and combines
the, features of both petticoat and
knickerbockers.
The boomers are gathered on an
elastic at the waist, cut extra full, and
with cuffs also gathered on elastic
bands. They are long enough to reach
below the calf of the leg, but should
be worn directly below the knee.
Several inches above the cuff Of
each leg fiounce is attached, slightly
gathered, but so put on as not to in
terfere with the width of the bloom
ers at that point.
The flounces are designed to reach
the hem of the outer skirt and elimi-
nate the necessity of petticoat, even
when the outer garment is of sheer
materials. AS the flounces are at
tached above the elastics, they will be
pulled up just as the outer skirt is
pulled up when the wearer is sitting,
instead Of showing beneath as did the
flounces of the old tango garters."

COLLARS AND CUFFS ALIKE
innovation Due to the Recent Vogue
for Plain Tailored Serge and
Satin Frocl<s.

It is worthy Of note that all the
newest models In collars are accom-
panied by cuffs. This is due to the re-
cent vogue for plain tailored serge and
satin frocks, which are to be so smart
for street wear this fall, and which
REQUIRE no other trimming than the
relief afforded by the white or con-
trasting tones of neckwear. Lovely
little collars cut narrow in the back
and in deep points in the front are
finished with three rows of tiny ruffies
edged with picot; these are accom-
panied by deep cuffs showing the Same
trimming.
Most of the collars shown are de-
veloped In sheer organdie, with double
hand hemstitching, hand embroidery
and very narrow frills of valenciennes
lace. A great many of them are fin
ished with black crepe de chine ties
or small taffeta tailored bows.
Filet lace is extensively used in col
lars for separate blouses, especially in
the high necked models.

LACE AGAIN is IN FASHION
Need of Helping the Workers of
France and Belgium Caused
Revival Of Mode.

Real lace is again in fashion. The
need of helping the lace workers of
France and Belgium started this mode.
Women of wealth and position in
France used their influence by spon-
sOring in war relief sales Of old and
new laces. Grande cOuturierS lent
their aid by using a great deal of YER
liable lace in their new creations.
AS a result many lovely gowns and
blouses are shown made or trimmed
with lace. Among the kinds noted are
Bruges, princess, applique, the Spanish
bobbin laces. thread lace and filet, with
some guipure and valenciennes.
Mounted over flmy foundations or
Innings of flesh or white chiffon or net,
sometimes in several tints and layers,
the effect is about the richest thing
that could be thought of in woman's
attire.

FOR HOME WORKER
Attractive Hats May BE Made by
the Amateur.
Bead and Jet Ornaments in Wide Va
riety, Are Being Used by MiIlin-
ers This Season.

Two charming hats, either of which
might be fashioned by the home mil
liner, are illustrated here. The larger
of the two hats has a brim of velvet
and crown of soft felt embroidered in
chenille in contrasting colors. The brim
might be of black or dark brown and
the crown gray or soft tan, with
flame-colored chenille for the necessary
color contrast.
The smaller hat, made of black or
navy blue velvet, is an excellent model
to select for wear with one of the serge
or gaberdine street dresses so fashion
able now. The soft crown is surround
ed by rolled brim which is covered
over with jet nail heads.
Nail heads were extensively used as
millinery and dress trimming several
years ago, and they have never been
entirely relegated to oblivion, especial
~ in millinery. Practically every sea-
son some ingenious milliner develops
few models with nail head trimming,
and for the fall and winter of 1917-18
they are generously exploited.
Bead and Jet ornaments in wide
variety are being used this season, and
applique embroidery is also a millinery
feature.
The service hat Of the American sol
der is shown made up in velvet and
in taffeta for sport wear.
For the first fall wear many wom-
en- wisely select small feather toque,

his fingers unclenched, great sigh
whistled from his lungs. Before him,
booted, spurred, and fully dressed, lay
the dead body Of Ed Austin.
Dave was still staring at the master
Of Las Palmas when the prosecuting
attorney spoke to him.
"God! This is terrible, isn't it?' he
said. "He must have died instantly"
sWhO-did it?"
"We don't know yet. Benito found
him and brought him in. He hasn't
been dead an hour"
Law ran his eyes over the room, and
then asked, sharply, where is Mrs.
Austin?"
He was answered by Benito Con
zales, who had edged closer. "She's
not here, senor."
''Have you notified herr"
Benito shrugged. s.There has been
no time, it all happened so quickly"
Someone interrupted, and Dave saw
that it was the local sheriff evidently
it was he who had waved from the
speeding machine a few moments be-
fore.
'I'm glad you're here, Dave, for you
can give me hand. I'm going to round
up these Mexicans right away and find
out what they know. Whoever did 1t
hasn't gone far; so you act as my
deputy and see what you can learn"
When Dave had gained better con-
troll Of himself he took Benito outdoors
and demanded full details Of the trag-
edy. With many lamentations and in
coherencies the range boss told what
he knew.
Ed had met his death within half
mile Of Las Palmas as he rode home
for dinner. Benito, himself on his way
to the house, had found the body, still
warm. near the edge Of the pecan
grove. He had retained enough sense
to telephone at once to Jonesvile. and

If this model be fair criterion, the
fall styles will be marked by simple
ity and good taste. The simplicity is
not extreme, though, for the distinctive
collar and belt contrast well with the
dominant note in the dress. They are
trimmed with one-inch bands of navy
serge, while the dress itself is of sand
colored serge. The bodice is simple
and so are the sleeves. The skirt pos
sesses the wide box plaits that go with
most smart frocks.

patches Of bare ground; insects sang
noisily from every side; far ahead the
road ran q wavering course through
deceitful mirage Of ripping ponds. 1t
was all familiar, pleasant; 1t was
home. With every mile he covered his
strength and courage increased.
Such changes had come into his life
since his last visit to Las Palmas that
it gave him a feeling Of unreality to
discover no alteration in the ranch.
He had somehow felt that the build
ings would look older, that the trees
would have grown taller, and so when
he finally came in sight of his destI-
nation he reined in to look.
Behind him he heard the hum Of an
approaching motor, and he turned to
behold car racing along the road he
had just travelled. The machine was
running fast, as long streamer OF
choking dust gave evidence, and Dave
soon recognized 1t as belonging to
Jonesville's prosecuting attorney. AS
it tore past him it's owner shouted
something, but the words were lost. In
the automobile with the driver were
several passengers, and one of these
likewise called to Dave and seemed to
motion him to follow. When the ma
chine slowed down half-mile ahead
and veered abruptly into the Las Pal
mas gateway, Dave lifted Montrosa to
run, wondering what pressing neces-
sity could have induced the prosecut-
ing attorney to risk such reckless
burst OF speed.
Dave told himself that he was I'M
duly apprehensive that Strange's
warnings had worked upon his nerves.
Nevertheless, he continued to ride SO
hard that almost before the dust had
settled he, too, turned into the shade
of the palms.
Yes, there was excitement here
something was evidently very much
amiss, judging from the groups OF
ranch-hands assembled upon the porch,
and windows, peering in. Briefly they
turned their faces toward Law; then
they crowded closer, and he perceived
that they were not talking. Some OF
them had removed their hats and held
them in their hands.
Dawes knees shook under him as he
dismounted; for one sick, giddy instant
the scene swan before his eyes; then
he ran toward the house and up the
steps. He tried to frame a question:
but his lips were stiff with fright.
Needless of, those in his path, he forced
his way into the house, then down the
hall toward an open door, through
which he saw room full of people
From somewhere came the shrill wall

hushed voices and whisperings. Dave
had but one thought. From the depths
Of his being voice called Alaire's
name until his brain rang with it.
A bed was in the room, and around
it was gathered a group Of white-faced
people. With rough hands Law cleared
a way for himself, and then stopped
frozen in his tracks. His arms relaxed

CHAPTER XVIII.
A Surprise.

Law found it good to feel horse
between his knees. He had not realized
until now how long Montrosa's saddle
had been empty. The sun was hot and
friendly, the breeze was sweet in his
nostrils as he swept past the smiling
fields and out into the mesquite cOun-
try. Heat wuves danced ADORE the

and unusually good looking ones are to
be had this season.
Rather tall hats are to be popular
for fall and winter; but more often
than not this towering effect is the
result Of trimming arrangement rath-
er than actual height Of the crown.
