old rooster clapped his wings and
crowed with all the power of his lungs
Every member of that little group
stood stock still and breathless.
trembled with a fear I could not
have defined. Mr.. Grimshaw shuf11ed
out of the door, his cane rapping the
| floor as II his arm had been stricken
with palsy In a moment.
Mr.. Dunkelberg turned to my aunt,
his face scarlet, and muttered an apol.
ogy for the disturbance and followed
the money lender.
Come on. Bart" Uncle Peabody
called cheerfully, as he walked toward
the barnyard. Lets go an git in
them but'nuts."
He paid no attention to our visi.
tors-neither did my aunt, who fol

gether a moment, unhitched their
horses, got into their buggIes and
drove away.
wal, I'm surprised at Mr.. Horace

wal. amt" said Uncle Peabody
-OP Grimshaw has got him under his
thumb-that's what's the matter
You'll find he's up to his ears in debt
to Grimshaw-probIy."
As we followed him toward the
house, he pushing the wheelbarrow
loaded with sacks of nuts, he added /:
AT last Grimshaw has found some
thin that he can't buy an he's awful
surprised. Too bad he didn't learn
that lesson long ago"
de stopped his wheelbarrow by the
steps and we sat down together on
the edge of the stoop as he added:
Il got mad-they KEEP pickin' on me
so-Fm sorry, but couldn't help il

AS we carried the bags to the attic

The call of the wild makes itself
heard in the cities but finds few lis
teners In the rural districts. There the
call Of gay summer resorts entices
those who have had enough Of solitude
and are looking to be refreshed by
companionship rather than quiet. The
shops are full of outfittings to suit the
needs Of everybody bound everywhere,
whether to the wilderness, the noun
talns, the sea or cityward and 1t is
noteworthy that stout service suits
md a place in all displays. These are
intended for women who will camp
climb. tramp, ride and enjoy living out
doors for time this summer, and they
are the straws that show the direction
OF the wind; for all the best outfltters
have inexpensive outing suits of this
kind.
A suit that will do to live in, come
what may in way of weather and
roughing it. Is shown above at the
right. 1t provides knickerbockers with
leggings attached, detachable skirt

The days are not long enough for
all the affairs of up-to-date, busy wom-
en-, and so they are providing them
selves with time-saving expedients.
A new and versatile dress. called "the
all-day dress" is one of these mod
ern conveniences. It must do duty
from the beginning of the business
day until the end of the same at least,
and may be longer. Designers are
called upon to keep in mind that the
all-day dress must be informal enough
for morning wear and smart enough
for afternoon; helped out with certain
accessories 1t will pass for all hours
and occasions in everyday affairs.
They have worked out their task in
several ways, and one example Of
their successful effort is pictured
here.
This is a plain one-piece frOck Of
wool trimmed with narrow braid and
angora cloth.
It is belted across the front and
has a semifitted bodice with skirt set
on at the back. The coat sleeves that
button along the forearm, the plain
7eck finish and the long skirt are
items that are approved in present
Hashiona It Is the trimming Of mar

that buttons at the front, and q good
looking coat with big patch pockets.
One can imagine the blouse of brown
linen, pongee, cotton or shirting silk
and whatever stout boots are comfort
able. The hat might be of cloth, felt
or straw so long as 1t fits well and
shades the eyes little.
Where no very strenuous demands
are to be made upon an outing dress.
the outfit at the left may be chosen
to fit in with almost any background
1t has a skirt of strong ribbed silk
bound with a plain wool cloth and a
coat of the same material as this bind
ing. Large buttons are set down the
front by way of ornament for the skirt
and the coat is finished with shawl
collar and patch pockets. There is an
odd bag to match this coat, that will
carry a good many things-as a little
lunch, a book, writing requisites, or a
bit of needlework. A panama hat fits
into the scheme of things here and car
ries sash about It's crown.
The Idaho Springs siftings-news., 1919-06-13

row braid and angora cloth that gives
this dress distinction. 1t is original
and effective and looks tailored"
therefore appropriate for street wear.
This is only one of many smart and
practical frocks for street wear. In
some of them serge and satin are
combined with embroidery as an EN-
bellishment. If embroidery is left
out a rich sash may be added or the
frock. no matter how quiet In color,
achieve distinction by originality In
cut, chic lines and a hint of a wrap
in the bodice. We may look for very
novel things now that costumers have
in mind all-day frocks that will re-
place the tailored suit. They will
brighten and add interest to our
streets and save time for women who
must attend to many things.

Again Grimshaw laughed between
his teeth as he looked at my uncle.
In his view every man had his price.
II see that I'm the mouse an you're

laugh ratified in his throat. Look a.

Again Uncle Peabody rose from his
chair with look in his face which I
have never forgotten. How his voice
