Japanese ParasoIs.

II you are trying to get through the
summer on the minimum number of
parasols get one that Is odd enough
always to look unusual or else get one
that Is a combination parasol and UNI
brella. The combination article Is
really a small umbrella of colored silk,
with a short handle supplied with a
silk strap for the wrist and short
black ferrule. For the unusual type
of parasol nothing is more charming
than one modelled on strictly Japanese
lines. One of the smart shops shows
a figured crepe parasol made exactly
like the Japanese paper parasols with
the thin wooden or bamboo ribs ex-
posed on both sides.

Meadows it might have been different.
1t always seemed TO Nibbler that with
Black Pussy hunting in the barn every
day, his life was quite as dangerous
Meadow Mouse had laughed at Black
Pussy and had told him of the much
smarter hunters OF the Green Meadows.
and how they had to be watched for
every minute, day and night Nibbler
Nanny could even want to think of
going back to such a dreadfully dan
gerous place.
But they not only thought Of going;
be a long, long journey with dreadful
dangers all the way. Privately Nibbler
thought that Danny and Nanny were
simply crazy. The idea Of leaving such
a comfortable, comparatively safe place
as Farmer Browns barn for such
dreadful dangers! No one in his senses
would think Of such a thing. You see,
Nibbler always had lived in that barn.
and that made all the difference in the
world.
I'm sorry you won't go along with
us" continued Danny. we would

Danny went on. You like the dried

but you ought to taste q fresh, ripe
strawberry. And it is such fun to hunt
crickets in the grass! Better change
your mind and come with u.s."
But Nibbler said no. and urged them
not to go. He might as well have
talked to stone wall. The Green
Meadows were calling Danny and
Nanny, and go they. must and would.
Nibbler went with them as far as the
door into the barnyard. Even then he
was terribly nervous and kept looking
behind and on all sides for Black
Pussy. and jumping at every little
sound.
GOOD bye" said he. ut has been
perfectly splendid having you here all
winter. and it is going to be very
lonely. l hope you'll come back next
winter" He said this very wistfully.
Goodbye. replied Danny. Take
care of yourself and watch out for
Black Pussy. I wish you would come
with us. but If you won't you won't.
We've had fine winter here, and per-
haps. We'll como back again. Good

small flowers, and two or three kinds
and colors are combined in each little
bunch. We all like unusual combina-
lions. Hence we find the fashion OF
wearing a bunch of the most spring

quite enchanting. The furs in ques-
ton are. of course, furs for summer
use, which are quite established. This
combination gives us the same sort of
satisfaction that a wide fur hem on
a frock of tulle or a straw hat with
a skating suit gives US.

near us but out of sight and that
are exposed in a startling manner
in 1.-THE Libertine," in which the
wholesome and affectionate life of
the home is contrasted fairly with
the glittering, but often debasing
life of the furious spenders. All
the advantage is shown to be with
the first.

EXC SUNDAY

MAY Blossom" starring Pearl

Pathe color, is the attraction at the

There is no combination of more
interest to film fans than Pearl
White and the nature color process
perfected by Pathe.
Pearl White is immensely popular
in every civilized country of the
globe. The millions who have fol-
lowed her adventures in 1.-The Elk
plot of Elaine" "The Perils of
Pauline" 1.-THE Iron Claw" pearl
of the Army etc., surely flock to
see her in MAY Blossom" the Sec

Virginia CAROLS and colored by the
hands of expert artists wounded
