Peter Rabbit wouldn't be thoroughly

anything going on among his neigh

to know all that goes on. So 1t hap
pened that one day he remembered
Paddy the Beaver and that 1t was a
long time since he had been over to
Paddy's pond. Right away Peter made
up his mind that he would visit Paddy
at once. If he didn't Jack Frost would
freeze Paddy's pond and then 1t would
be too late. SO the first chance he got.

Two days after her reinforcement five

Tho commissioners of the de facto
government were favorably received by
President Harrison and a treaty Of an

But one Of the first acts Of President
Cleveland was to withdraw 1t and to.
dispatch Col Blount of Georgia as his
special commissioner to Investigate the
situation.
Meanwhile the United States flag had
been raised by Minister Stevens, who
had. at the request Of the provisional
government. proclaimed a provisional
protectorate for his country over the
islands. Col Blount, who by reason OF
his credentials became known as
Paramount Blount." pulled down the
American flag over the government
buildings and made a long report to
President Cleveland. who removed Min
lister Stevens. and the queen was in
formed that If she would grant am

the part Of the provisional government.
President Cleveland referred the whole
matter to Congress, which repudiated
the Blount report and decided adverse

to her throne.

United States, she declared her fealty

The Tight Under-Hip.

Another feature Of this winters fash
ions which must not be overlooked by
the woman who wants to appear well
dressed is the narrow lining which Is
the foundation Of all clothes. It makes
little difference whether or not
transparent fabrics is used above 1t.
The fact Is that 1t exists under all
gowns. If skirts must be narrow. say
the dressmakers. then let them be
artistic. So they abide by the decree
for the conservation Of material in the
little slip that IL cut Off eight inches
above the ankles and follows the lines
of the body to tho shoulder. fastening
down the back. And then, over this
fgure-like narrowness. they drape soft
material that Is transparent. or. If
opaque. Is clinging. The effect is very
good. It does not make a woman look
as though she were wrapped like
mummy and could not walk. It gives
her freedom Of movement. and the
floating overskirt above tho sheath
like underskirt has its own artistic
seductiveness.
It is not always necessary to use
tulle for the floating panels. Taffeta-
satin. georgette crepe and even WOODEN
cloth are steadily made use Of by the
best designers.
