REVIVED OLD APPLE STORY
Adam and Eve Encounter Was
Caused by the Red Fruit.

Ever since Eve tempted Adam with
an apple there has been more or less

apolis News. but this morning was

caused between man and woman by
an apple"
A man had been arrested charged
with assault and battery on his wife.
The wife had tried to shield him when
she took the stand, but admitted hav-
ing had little unrieusantneSs with
her mate.
When the man took the stand he
asked whether he should tell the story
from the beginning, and when told to
go ahead started by saying: Judge,
your honor, all this trouble was caused
by an apple"
"Yes, | have heard that story be-
FORE" said the judge. The Bible even
says that an apple caused trouble be-
tween Adam and Eve, and most people
think that all OF our troubles date to
that time"
'But this was q real apple replied
the prisoner. I'VE had an argument
over il and when my wife became loud
l merely showed her away from me.
Then some noSey neighbors called the
police"
All right" said Judge Deery. but

Some, Which Are Made of Jersey
Cloth, Show Vest of Chiffon
Trimmed With Cotton Fringe.

Sports or travelling blouSes are SIM
pie and straight, bordered with cot
ton fringe. Some blouses of jersey
cloth show n straight vest of chiffon
trimmed with the cotton fringe. This
vest effect is admirably adapted to a
long jacket in Il contrasting tone.
Side by side with the simple blouse
are dressy designs entirely covered
with embroidery, not arranged as in
previous seasons in a round pattern
but running up and down in broad
band effect and covering the surface
of the material almost completely.
A novelty is embroidery carried out
in square designs, arrayed somewhat
in the manner of Il cross.

cleaned before they get So soiled that
hard rubbing is necessary. Two pairs
of white Kid dress gloves. one pair of
heavy dogSllin gloves and pair Of
washable channels gloves should beUh

ceiye extra care and attention this
year. Every pair will be neatly freed
while not in use. oil will be rubbed

house. The heavy laced sport shoes
for rough weather wear will stand

boots for formal wear should be care

ments are damp. A well-cared for
shoe will last longer and look better
