have beenit ; yet why had she selected
him as the likeliest looking pickpocket
in, the crowd? Wilbert Dunton was
much chagrined and decidedly sore.
Not an hour after the episode on
Broadway, certain young woman
stood before her dressing table.
"Aren't you ever going to be dressed
for dinner?' demanded her aunt, en-
tering from the other room.
"Of course, I am! But auntie, it is
SO enhancing! The stuck-up thing
didn't even remember me, and just
slipped my purse into his pocket and
then accused him of taking it,"
"Why, Margie Everly! How could
you?" ~
.aThe idea, his not knowing me !!
WHY, when I was sixteen, didn't he
win my young heart? Didn't he even
kiss nv hand one night and tell mS I
was beautiful? And now after only
seven years he doesn't even know
mev' ,. .a....
-"Well, you terrible child! What will
Won be doing next? Please do try to
behave at the Morton's masque to-
nipht. Your costumes here and 1t is
a dream. And Margery, Wilbert Dun
ton is sure to be there! only hope
he won't remember the pert young
woman who called him a pickpocket
and then rubbed it in by giving him
twenty dollars to start him on a new
life" And the good lady sighed bit
for she had hoped, or at least figured
that Wilbert Dunton might be matri-
monial possibility for the niece whpm
she had v-ntured to pilot through the
social season.
However, that young lady was, or
seemed to be. entirely mistress of her
own destiny, for after she was
dressed she slipped down to the phone
and called a certain number. Then
waited demurely
.HeIlo. this is DuntoB" came his
well-bred voice.
"Hello, pickpocket," she laughed
into the phone. --
II beg your pardon -
Don't be dignifed. A pickpocket
is never dignified."
Dunton grihned In spite Of himself
"And who might you be?"
"Ir Oh, I might be almost anyone,
but I'm not. I'm only-Poinsettia."
sPoinsettia - Poinsettfa! repeated
Dunton vaguely. But he was speak.

There is almost distracting va
riety in sweaters and sweater-coats to
choose from this season. And along
with them sleeveless satin and velvet
sports coats have entered the race for
consideration, and sleeveless coats of
silk Jersey. All of which goes to
prove that q sweater, or sports coat
or both-are indispensable In the
wardrobe of today and that one can
afford to think twice and then think
again before making . final choice
among them.
Where not much In the way OF
warmth is really wanted of the sweat
er and it is worn more for smart style
than anything else, the new short,
hand-knitted, slip-overs are apt to
win approval. They are made of
heavy zephyrs. In gay colors and knit
ed on large needles. Turquoise blue
and rose pink are favorites for them
and one sees an occasional jade green.
Nearly all Of them have white knit
ed collars. It Is left to the individ-
ual to decide for or against sleeves
and If the sleeves win, then white
knitted cuffs are theirs by right.
These sweaters At the figure some
what closely and are worn with white
kid belts. They are much shorter
than the sweater and sweater-coat
shown In the picture, extending only
eight to ten inches below the waist
line.
The knitted sweater pictured IL q
machine-made garment, with wide
sailor collar, deep cuffs and short
girdle all knitted, but In a coarser
and haavi9 stitch than the sweater.

Vests of Renaatine.

Very handsome are the vests Of ben.
galine or other heavy silks, most of
them tailor-made and quite plain.
One Of soft blue was embroidered in
rose: and one of ecru in purple. An
adjunct to a blouse that carried out
the sleeveless idea, and vest US we'll,
is a wide. scarflike piece brought
around the neck and fastening under
the belt in front, leaving the front OF
the blouse exposed. A striking one
was of old rose with a touch of dull
gold along the border. 1t was worn
over Il cream white silk blouse and
was very effective.

jured, some seriously, when a tornado
late Saturday night demolished the
new barn on the Elof Nelson farm,
IL miles east of st. Paul, where $50
men and women were gathered for a
barn dance. The barn was left .

in the farmyard were damaged by fly
ing timbers. The festivities of the
night were at their height when the
gale struck the bnTn. lifting the roof
and walls from the floor. With the
barn scattered in all directions, the
dancers were forced to take shelter
in other outhouses and stables, the
house not being large enough to hold
all of them.

1t is smart and practical for actual
sports wear. The silk sweater-coat
or sports-coat is much less simple. It
has short yoke and a two-piece COL
lar, wide at the back. The body OF
the coat is plated and set in the yoke.
It Is full and long with saddle-bag
pockets stitched fiat to the skirt.
There is one large button to fasten
the coat at the base Of the collar and
two on the wide girdle. A coat of
this sort will prove useful and COM
Portable wherever some warmth and
much good style are required from q

Before breakfast each day, drink a

full of limestone phosphate in it as a
harmless e of washing from the

A quarter pound of limestone phos-

that just as soap and hot water

COUNTY AGENT TELLS
HOW TEST SEED CORN

The country is faced with it's great
est seed shortage. According to
government reports all seeds are 60
ing to be scarce. But the seed that
concerns the farmers of Henderson
county most is seed corn. Early
frosts and early freezing weather
have rendered much corn unfit for
seed. The farmer who selected his
corn in the field last fall and thor
oughly dried it in a room where
freezing temperatures were avoided
can feel secure Where this selec-
ton and drying have not been done it
is advisable to test the corr you in
tend to plant. The following method
taken from The Country Gentleman
is a very simple way in which to
make the test:
"To promote universal ear-testing,
the Department of Agriculture is cen
tering a drive on the rag-doll tester.
Take bleached muslin cloth, thirty
inches wide, tear in strips a half yard
wide. Mark off in two rows of four
inch squares with a lead pencil,
dampen and spread on a table. Ten
grains are pried from each a with
a knife, beginning at end and
going round the ear in a sort of spiral
to the other end. When each square
has been filled with ten grains, and
the ears have been numbered or laid
aside in rows so it is known which
ear belongs to which. square, the sides
of the cloth are folded over carefully
and the whole wrapped round a cob,
tied and the rag doll is ready for a
bath. It should soak in tepid water
for three or four hours, and then be
put in a warm place to germinate. A
pile of the rag dolls may be put in a
box behind the stove and covered
with q cloth to prevent drying out.
In from five to seven days the test
will be complete, the rag doll may
be unrolled and the sprOuted grains
counted. Under average conditions
this year tits recommended that ears
be discarded if at least seven grains
out of ten do not terminate.
eff some tightly woven cloth like
bleached muslin is used, the roots will
not pierce the fabric and it may be
used several times. After each test
the cloth should be boiled to kill rot
and other germs"
1t should be borne in mind that
corn grown in this county, that i
well matured, is much preferred foT
seed, to corn, grown in some othe-
state, or corn grown in the eastern
counties of this state.

results of violated law; but when
God calls a man to appear before him
he must come. One, may violate a
state law and flee the country or hide
in the dens or caves of the noun
tains; he may break Jail, may bride
the judge or jailor. But when God
almighty sends the sheriff of eternity
to bring him a sinful soul into his
court he must come. Knowing this
to be true the only wise; the only sem
sible thing for US to do is to make the
proper preparation.
There are three periods in every
life that makes that life either n
of happiness or misery. They are
the past. present and the future.
There will be just three things in
eternity that will make our portion
of supreme joy or misery. They are
what we SEN before US to the judg-
ment, what we take with US and what
we leave to come after US.
