WOMAN IS A MAIL CARRIER
Maryland Woman Has Made a Record
Which Few Men Would Be
Able to Equal.

Braving snow, sleet, drifts, biting
winds in the winter and blistering and
scOrching heat in the summer, Miss
Julia NJ. Shafer of Knoxville, Md, for
- years has served the United States
as rural mail carrier, according to the
Baltimore Sun.
She is now covering the same route
her father Travelled II years ago, when
the route first was established. Miss
Shafer in those days was a substitute
for her father; now the father is SUBJ
stituting for her.
In the II years that Miss Shafer has
carried mail it Is estimated that she
has Travelled 93,6OO miles. She makes
25-miles six days the week. With the
exception of the regular 15-day annual
vacation Miss Shafer has been Off duty
only 80 days in IL years.
It is a hard snow of a destructive
storm that prevents this woman car
rier from making the rounds daily.
Ordinarily she uses horse and buggy.
The type Of roads extending through
the mountain section of the country
would not permit of the use Of a motor
car.
When roads are blockaded by drifts.
as is often the case in the winter, she
discards the old covered buggy and
ventures forth on horseback. Three
years ago she delivered the mails In
this manner for several weeks.
She is her own housekeeper. Each
night when she returns from her work
she plunges into the midst of house
work.

MATERIALS FOR THE CORSET
Soft and Supple Goods Are Most In
Favor for This Most Important
Of Underaarments.

One wonders II the straight. low
walsted dresses will cause a return 10
the sheathllke, tlght-fitting corset Of
few seasons back. The new materials
used for corsets are all soft and sup
pie. Women like them and will con-
tinue TO wear them. The prettiest ma.
terials for corsets are the batistes and
broche silk canvas, a charming glossy
material. The corset is cut low at the
top, with the bust slightly higher. A
much approved method of lacing is
with an elastic on either side Of the
lower part Of the bust. 1t makes the
corset far more comfortable, besides
obllterating the line Of demarcahon.
The new corset requires bust sup
port, and Is generally made in some
soft, lacy material, fastened at the
back, as a rule.
There are fanciful little brassieres
in net. One model was in pink. and
had a wreath Of tiny rocco ribbon
flowers forming a medallion in the cen
ter of the front. The shoulder strap
was made with a triple row of satin
ribbon, fastened with similar flowers.

HAND TOUCHES ON MILLINERY
Trimmings That Require Skillful
Workmanship Have by No Means
Altogether Disappeared.

For all of the talk that millinery is
more or less untrimmed for the last
few season, that the milliners no long
er pile up confusions of blossoms and
feathers and ribbons on one hat as
formerly, there still remains, espe-
cially on the sports-type hat, great
deal of handwork. Much originality
and ingenuity is brought into play for
these same trimmings.
For instance, a crown of woven rib
bons of all colors and widths requires
skill to give the proper effect. This
hat has a straw brim and is trimmed
with single tassel caught partly in
the windings of the ribbon.
Again crown of white linen is
treated to cut-out blossoms Of Gre
tonne all held closely down with
green embroidery floss uIBlil the crown
looks as If covered with a costly fig
ured fabric.

New Niaht Dresses.

Many of the new night dresses have
collars. Some very attractive little
models, for instance, are in sailor
fashion and fastened with a scarf of
surah silk tied in a sailor knot.
Broche batiste Is newer and would
make a prettier scarf. Another model
recently designed is in Greek style, cut
down at the shoulders and showing
ribbon passed through pufings of vOile,
crossed at the shoulders and continued
around the armholes. Both plain and
dotted nets are much used to trim
night dresses.

UricAcid!

Ever since the discovery of ScheeIe in
l775 that uric acid was found within the
body-most eminent physicians agree
that rheumatism is caused by it; also
many distressing symptoms as head
ache, pain in back, stomach distress,
swollen feet and ankles, gout, etc.
1t was DR.. Pierce of the Invalids' Hotel,
Buffalo, NY, who discovered new agent
called Anuric, a harmless remedy
that if taken before meals will carry off
the uric acid from the system and in
this way the pains and aches, the creaky
joints and all the distressing symptoms
Of rheumatism and other maladies dis
appear. You can easily prove this your
self, by obtaining Anuric at almost any
drug store, or send DR.. Pierce 10c. for
trial package. Try it and be convinced
that Anuric is many times more active
than ithia and eliminates uric acid as hot
water melts sugar.

MAKING BEST OF MATERIALS
Modistes Have to Get What Effect
They Can With Goods They Have
to Work With.

There had been some attempt at
drapery, but it is doubtful If the
draped frOck will endure through the
season. There is also n half chemise,
half moyen-age frOck, vaguely suggest
ing the prineesse, which is exceeding
ly graceful and exceedingly pretty.
And at the moment we are promised
simple one-piece frOcks with wraps Of
some sort, probably the cape-manteau.
Picture the despair of the hOpelessly
tailored" woman. However, the
couturiers are amiable people, and
without doubt there will be tailored
suits a-plenty shown in the spring col
lections.
The lack of cOlors-of certain dyes
also has an important effect on the
fashion. The couturiers must do what
they can with the material at hand.
IF fine woolen stuffs are lacking, they
must use harsh fabrics. If wooden it's
sues are not to be had, they must use
silk and cotton. Lacking bright dyes,
they must use dull-toned stuffs.
It may be the lack of dyes which
has pushed checked stuffs to the fore,
achieving by contrast the color which
is actually lacking This is one of
the tricks of the trade" and it has
proved, Just now, n most successful
one. Checked stuffs will be widely
used this season, not only as trimming
for clOaks and frocks Of white or neu-
tral tints, but for hats as well. Many
smart sports hats are covered with
checked stuff Of more or less strik-
ing pattern.-From Vogue.

Billy, although bit over thirty, had
retained such an evergreen youth that
no one. even I'm the cement works
where he was a partner. ever thought
Of calling him William. He would
probably always be Billy TO the end
Of the chapter, though he was five feet
nine, and strongly built. He never
laid any claims to beauty, but had a
good wholesome cOuntenance that
looked capable and honest.
June Barry had beea taken by Mrs.
Hunt, Billy's mother, when she was
only eight years old. She was dis
tantly related by marriage, but so re-
motely that when you began to try to
entangle II, Il ended In not being re-
lated. But June was left an orphan
with a small inheritance, and Mrs.
Hunt brought her home, and she be-
came one Of the family. That was ten
years ago, and she had romped
through her childhood with Billy, and
It had not apparently occurred to him
that she had grown up. Evidently 1t
was occurring to him now, for the
quiZzical smile on his lips was but
transparent mask to cover his per-
picked surprise.

well, do you think that's all 1
want? You that's been living in the
same house with me for the last ten
yesrs?"
That's it," musingly rejolned the
man. Sometimes we don't know the
people OF our own family as well as
we do outsiders. Perhaps because we
don't take notice"
1--WE don't take notice." echoed June
grimly.
"And you know" laughed Billy try
"I-we all look upon you as one of
the family"
THANK you" said June with cutting
pOliteness. TITS very kind Of you"
And with great dignity she took her
self out of the room.
June had not quite known what Bill
ly meant to her till one day some
thing happened. She heard that he
was calling very often on. Mrs. Cliffe, !
the young, fascinating widow who had |
lately come to town, and taken a pref |
ty apartment nearby. Then she saw
him walking with Mrs. Cliffe, and the !
quick, hard tug at her heart told her |
she was jealous. Then she knew.
Upon this came the sudden impulse to
find out If he cared for her except as
just one of the family.
About two weeks after this episode
June met Mrs. Cliffe at a friends
home, and was cordially invited to
come and see her. Not at once taking
advantage of the invitation, she one
day received a pleasant little note
from Mrs. Cliffe asking her to come to
tea. June said nothing to Billy, but

found she was not far in the wrong.
The widow certainly was fascinat-

something like pang. She also had

Montagu Rollaway had taken the

AS new cars always do on trial runs,
it broke down and the usual crowd Of
sympathizers gathered round. While
Montagu sprawled himself underneath,
questions came thick and fast upon
him.
