CUSTOM OF COLONIAL DAYS
"Beating the Bounds" Was Enjoyed
by the Boys More In America
Than In England.

I believe that, In earliest colonial
days, boys also took part in a joyful
outing, a public custom known as
perambulating or beating the bounds,
writes Alice Morse Earle, in her
Child Life in Colonial Days" The
memory of boundaries and division
lines, Of commons, public highways,
ETC., was kept fresh in the minds Of
the inhabitants by an old-time Aryan
custom,-the walking around them
once a year, noting lines Of boundary
and impressing these on the notice
and memory Of young people. To
induce English boys to accompany
these perambulations it was custom
ary to distribute some little gratuity
this was usually willow wand, tied
at the end with a bunch of points,
which were bits of string about eight
inches long, consisting of strands OF
cotton or woolen yarn, braided or
twisted together, ended by a tag Of
a bit Of metal or wood. These point.
were used to tie the hose to the knees
Of the breeches; the waistband Of the
breeches to the jacket etc. Long after
points were abandoned as a portion OF
dress. the wands, with their little
knot Of points, were given. Pepys
wrote, in 1861, that he heard that, al
certain boundaries, the boys were
smartly whipped to impress the
bounds upon their memories.

WHEN ONE SITS UP IN BED
Knitted Nightingale Most Useful Gar
ment When III or Reading
in Bed.

The knitted nightingale is one Of
the most useful garments sick per-
son can possess, and it is certainly ac-
ceptable to anyone who likes to read in
bed. Moreover, it is very easy to make
and goes quickly. Any light-colored
wool is nice for it, especially the silk
and wool mixtures that can be pur-
chased in pink, blue and lavender, or,
better yet, the fluffed cotton that looks
like wool.
The scarf itself it straight, with
purled cuff of 40 stitches done on very
thin needles for two inches, and then
increased to about 90 stitches on very
large needles, and continued until the
whole measures somewhere between
SO and 60 inches, depending on the
length of the arms of the person for
whom it is intended. 1t usually takes
about four balls Of wool for one. When
it is finished the cuffs are sewed up
and part Of one edge Is turned back
with ribbon through to make a collar,
and give something to fasten 1t to-
gether. The whole is something like
big shawl, with place at each end
for the arms.

he was lying on the cot In the her-
mitage. But alas! 1t was her
mitage no longer. A young woman,
clad in white uniform with narrow
blue stripes, was holding his left arm
aloft while another similarly dressed
was busy about the stove, In which
fire had been built.
The young woman holding his arm
"a very pretty blonde-smiled pleas
antly and handed him glass OF water.
"What's happened?" he asked after
he had drunk the water. She explain
ed in few words.
"My friend and I were enjoying
half day off, strolling about the lake,
when we heard you cry out. We found
you lying under tree, severe cut
in the brachial artery, and blood spurt'
ing so profusely from the wound that
we We're obliged to improvise this tour
niquet with your handkerchief and
piece of wood. We saw this house
in the distance, assumed that you lived
here, and managed to bring you here"
The girls fingers holding the arm
of his skin and her smile was one OF
the most CHEEKY things he had ever
seen.
"NIy friend is preparing something
for you to eat" she announced. Its
something light, just the thing TOT
you"
James felt that it was good to have
this girl looking after his comfort IN
this way.
"She knows her business" he decid-
ed. "She's very capable person, all
right, and that's what I need"
One day, month later, while James
was partaking Of a canned dinner, he
heard an automobile horn emit several
croaking blasts, followed by the sound
as of a machine coming to stop back
Of the shack.
Soon there was a knock at the door,
and it was thrown open to admit
| Ralph Williamson, radiant with smiles.
| The two young men clasped hands
| warmly and Williamson was offered
the four-legged stool as special
honor.
"Can't STOP" he demonstrated. Il
just came out to see If you had enough
of hermiting."
Obtaining no answer, he went on:
"Pve a pleasant surprise for you.
Janet Ellison is out there in my car.
and she wants you to be her special
guest at house party starting to-
morrow. She got back just this week,
and Immediately inquired about you.
Come on and get ready"
James held up the coffee pot.
| "Have a drink" he invited, and re-
ceiving shake of the head from his
visitor, he poured another cupful for
himself. Dropping in lump Of sugar
he stirred it and said:
"Pve had enough Of hermiting, all
right, Ralph; but can't go with you
You see, I'm getting married tO-mor.

SUM and SIMPLE
Frocks Are Quite Unlike tht
Mode of Yesterday.
,yaistIines Are caprieious; Sleeves Of
Various Styles; Supply Of SILK IL
Wondrous; WooIens Limited.

Evervwbere one sees new clothes.
At first glance they seem quite like the
mode of yesterday-and one resolves
with firmness to wear the Things leIt
over. One looks again, relates writer
| in Harper's Bazar, and discovers
difference which lies not in the out
lines but in a host Of clever, artfully
-,lanned details-and ones resolution
aies on wings.
In style all frocks are slim and SIM
ole--or at least they give that impress
sion. The skirts are of the weil-knoWn
"hobble" type, but they have ali the
delights and one of the regrets OF the
hobble we used to struggle with so
yaliantly. Instead of the uncomforta-
hly close confines of other days, the
new skirts are so skillfully folded and
1raped that though the slender lines
are scrupulously maintained, the wear
er has plenty of room in which to
brave the curbstones!
Waistlines are indeed capriciOus, for
while some reach aspiring heights,
others startle with their length. A few

normal. OF girdles there are a-plenty.
If one would have the swathing kind
and one surely will-remember that
II, begins at the normal waistline and
IS lraped to give the effect Of long,
slender waist.
Sleeves, always a law unto them
selves, are long and tight at times,
again only three-quarters. Some are
draped and some are "bells;" some ars
banded with fur and some with heavy
material. Though the straight neck
line is still much liked, distinctive col
lars of fur will stamp a gown as un-
mistakably new.
Silk is the mode, of course. And
never were there such wondrous silk
en- stuffs
Woods there are-rough hOmespuns,
duvetyns, velours and jerseys-for
suits and wraps that one may wear
without a qualm, for the materials
were manufactured and purchased
long before there was any question Of
conservation. The supply, of course,
is limited, and the tariff prOportionate-
ly high.

Birth Of Standard Time.

1t was 85 years ago that standard
time was born in the United States
Before this date travellers from Bos.
ton and Washington needed to change
their watches five times to keep up
to date. There were over half hun.
dred standards used in the United
States and Canada, between the At.
lantic and the Pacific. At noon on
November IS. 1883, there was uni.
versal resetting Of clocks in all parts
of the United States and Canada, and
the four great time zones into which
the American continent is divided
came into existence.

"The Spender," the Metro play
which will be the feature at the Ope-

the newest favorite of the screen,
Bert Lytell, will be seen, lie one OF
the cleverest, most amusing and en-
tertaining comedieso the season
The plot, which was adapted from
the story of the same name by Fred
erick Grin Bartlett, published in the
Saturday Evening Post, centers
around two men-Dick Bisbee, young
and vital to whom life means enjoy
ment, and the other, "Tightwal"
Bisbee, old and misanthrope. The
young man has no money to buy the
good things of life while the older
one possesses a million but has lost
the art of happiness in his greedy
search for gold.
Dick, played by Bert Lytell, con-
ceives plan whereby he can help
his uncle, old "Tightwad," back to
youth and enjoyment and in return
reap some rewards himself-mainly

How, at Dicks instigation, the old
man casts off his age with his old
clothes, is cleverly shown as the play
progresses and The happinesse the
younger man is able to teach the
elder shows that money is only a
source of pleasure when used for the
happiness of others. .
The play is vital and compelling
for It's real human power, while its
comedy is most delicately and lightly
handled providing surprising enter
tainment while the romance which
runs through the story is refreshing
in its simplicity and charm. 1t is
picture which is bound to delight and
please all who see it and is classed as
one of the real surprises" of the
season both for the original idea of
the story and the splendid work of
the young star.
The play is directed by Charles
