Wouldn't Let Woman Tie Knot.

The Erie Record tells of a Neosho
county couple who called at the pro-
bate Judges Office for a marriage IL
cense, intending to have the ceremony
performed by the judge at the same
time. Finding a woman deputy in
charge of the office, the young man in
the case refused to proceed and went
to hunt up a minister. I'D just as
soon be married by a phonograph as
to have a woman perform the cere-
mony," he said The Record, however,
does not record what the bride replied
to that tactful remark on the part of
her husband.-Kansas City Star.

ABOUT NEW AUTUMN HATS
Velvet Headgear Strongly in LlmeIiaht
Embroidery Prominently Fea-
tured-Feathers Not Forgotten.

Some of the new velvet hats have
brims with insets of tulle. The tulle
and velvet match in color. Sometimes
here is a wedge-shaped inset of the
.ulle on each side of the crown. The
trimming of the hat, whatever it may
be, falls softly over the little tulle
window, partly covering it.
Quilted velvet is used for both crown
and brim of some of the autumn hats.
One especially effective hat, of taupe
velours, is made in a modified tricorne
shape, with the three-sided brim only
slightly rolled up. A third of the brim
s of heavily quilted and padded vel

he upper side of the brim just at the
'dge of the quilted part.

ion most promptly and successfully
and also economically-have much
cause to congratulate themselves, for
q new purchase would have meant
q larger outlay.
On the other hand, it must be ad-
mitted that the purchase of a white
fox fur either presupposes the posses
sion of another and darker piece, or
suggests the advisability of making a
second purchase.
For, of course, snowy spotlessness
is essential to its charm, and the sue
cess of the wearer's whole toilette, a
so-calIed white fox which shows the
slightest sign of soiling or dinginess
being very sad sight.
So either it must be reserved for
very special occasions, and costumes
or it must pay frequent visits to the
cleaner, who can give it a new lease
of life and loveliness.
And in the meantime another fox
scarf must be available, either one of
those beautiful "cross" varieties
which blend black, and gray, and
white, and tawny tints, or else one of
the red fox skins, whose almost orange
tone is favored alike by blond and
brunette, and which is going to be
very much in evidence during the next
season.
And, in order that the color and
contrast of the furs made be made
still more effective by repetition, some
of the newest velours hats have beer
dyed to exactly this same gorgeous red
orange shading. And beautiful-ant
beautifying-t they are.

Embroidered velvet hats are strong

embroidered in the brightest colors on
the velvet, in silk threads, are espe-
cially good.
Smoking and shirring, as well as
quilting and padding, are used in other

usually rather large, soft shapes.

Then she will have terrible case of
nervous fright in addition to the pain
which is making her limp"
And indeed the keeper was very pa
tient. He waited long, long time be-
fore the deer would let him take her
gently, not forcing her to come to
him.
'Well, Mrs. Deer, we must see what
is the matter with you," the keeper
said, and then the zoo doctor came
along. The keeper had sent for him.
He had been around several times be-
fore, but the keeper had sent him
away, saying:
"Stay around but not too near. We
mustn't frighten Mrs. Deer, for she
has enough pain without being made
dreadfully nervous. We must be pa
tent" And the zoo doctor had
agreed with the keeper.
Mrs. Deer turned her eyes upon the
keeper, now that she was being stroked
by him, just as she had looked at him
before he had caught her.
And once again it seemed as if she
were saying: 81 want to live, keeper,
the world is such beautiful place"
The keeper stroked her and soothed
her and said:
'There, there, Mrs. Deer, you'll be
all well soon. All well soon."
Then the doctor looked at Mrs.
Deer and he examined the place where
| the pain seemed to be.
"Dear me-" said the doctor, s'you
mustn't worry, Mrs. Deer. You have
rheumatism which is making you stiff
and sore, but there are no broken
bones and no fractured joints"
Mrs. Deer didn't just know what all
these things We're but she knew from
the doctors voice that everything was
going well and that she would soon
be about again.
''Yes," said the doctor, s'you took
cold and so got slight attack OF
rheumatism. But you'll be all right
in day or so.
"You simply need little liniment
On your sore knee joint"
So the deer had liniment put upon
her knee joint. She didn't just know
what liniment was, but she knew thai
something warm and soothing an6
comforting was being put on hel
knee and it was being rubbed in. I
was poured out of bottle and oh, i
did make so much difference after i
had been rubbed on her knee joint.
"You're going to be as well as eve
fully, and Mrs. Deer, feeling alread.
SO much better, looked at the keeper
with tears of joy in her big eyes, ant

Fur Trimmed Hem,

The short, narrow skirts with deep
hem of fur are favored. The jackets
worn with these are cut like the Rus
sian PEASANTS blouse, bordered along
the skirt with the same fur and fin
ished with long sleeves, deep fur cuffs
and high military collar of fur. One
would think this fashion came straight
from Russia, especially as little pol
ished boots of soft, pllable leather
banded along the top with fur are
brought out to finish off the fur.

MRS. pEER's SICKNESS.

Poor Mrs. Deer was sick. She was
certainly very sick animal and her
large eyes looked at the keeper as
though to say:
II feel so badly, feel as though I
were going to die. And don't want
to die, keeper, for the world is such
a beautiful place. The sun shines,
soft and white and beautiful when the
winter is here and the trees are al
most always lovely.
I'm the spring they burst into
bloom, in the summer time they are
full and green, in the autumn they are
of various colors and in the winter
they are often covered with soft
blankets of white snow.
"And there are the trees Of the
forests, the dark pines and spruces
and elms. They are always beautiful.
Oh, keeper, the world is a very beau
tiful place and I want to live SO very
much.''
Now Mrs. Deer was very nervous
for all of the deer family are extreme
ly nervous and timid. They are nat
urally rather delicate too in most
cases.
81 am afraid" said the keeper, as
he saw Mrs. Deer limping about most
painfully, ''that you have sprained or
strained your knee joint or maybe your
ankle"
Poor Mrs. Deer wanted to be made
well and yet she was afraid to be cap
tured by the keeper. Now the keep.

they will be discarded when the cold
weather comes by those who will take
up the two leading fashions that have
been revived from two years ago: the
funnel collar that envelopes the neck,
the chin and the lobes of the ears, and
the hat that envelopes the eyebrows,
the top of the ears and the upper part
Of the eyelids. What in the name of
all common sense can a veil do be-
tween these two?
Inspiration From the Anzace.
We like to trace our present fash
ions to an immediate inspiration, to
some fantastic or picturesque source
that is part and parcel of our pres
ent struggle for existence. 1t suits
our mood better than going back to
the dead and gone personages who
probably figure more gloriously In lit
erature than they did in fact.
We hate caps on women. There is
something of undying coquetry in the
rolling, dashing, spirited headgear as
against the new street suit which is
flecked with an insignia never before
\ exploited by women-the stars of serv-
ice, the insignia of rank, the colored
departmental bands.
The brims of hats, therefore, are cut
according to romance or shortened ac-
cording TO practical ideas, but the
crowns are unusually high. The ma
jority of American women have long
faces-it is the racial stamp-and to
suchN women q high-crowned hat is
never becoming. The French wear ii

faces, with pointed chins and delicate.

No More Muffs,

In spite of the high price of furs,
it will evidently be the favorite trim
ming for hats this winter, as well
as for the better suits and coats. One
notes the almost complete absence of
the muff and scarf sets. This is no
doubt because almost everyone has a

Of the long stoles have pockets in the
