Whitefoot's Careless Jump.

Whitefoot the Wood Mouse once
more was happy. When he found his
snug little nest and his store OF food
under that old box in the darkest cor
ner of Farmer Browns sugar house
he knew that Farmer Browns Boy
| must have placed it there. 1t was bet
ter than the old place under the wood
pile. 1t was the best place for a home
Whitefoot ever had. 1t didn't take
him long to change his mind abous
leaving the little sugar house. Some
| how he seemed to know right down
inside that his home would not again
be disturbed.
So he proceeded to rearrange his
nest and to put all his supplies of food
in one corner of the old box. When
everything was arranged to suit him
he ventured out, for now that he no
longer feared Farmer Browns Boy he
He liked to jump up on the bench
where Farmer Browns Boy some
times sat. He would climb up to
where Farmer Browns Boys coat
Once he stole Farmer Browns Boys
handkerchief. He wanted to add to
the material his nest was made of.
Farmer Browns Boy discovered it
just as it was disappearing. and how
he laughed as he pulled it awav.
So, what with eating and sleeping
and playing about. secure III the ,ee.-
ing that no harm could come to him,
Whitefoot was happier than ever be-
fore in his little life. He knew that
Farmer Browns Boy and Farmer
Brown and Bowser the Hound were
his friends. He knew. too, that as long
as they were about none of his
enemies would dare come near. This
being so, of course, there was nothing
to be afraid of. No harm could pos
sibly come to him. At least that is
what Whitefoot thought.
But you know enemies are not the
only dangers to watch out for: acct
dents will happen. When they do
happen it is very likely to be when

For the Little. Girls Mother

If you have no little daughter, Of
course you are not interested. But II
you have, then the question of where
that little girls belt shall be placed
assumes enormous importance-that
is, whether it shall be only Few
inches below her dimpling chin, or
way down around her slender hips;
or perchance there may be no waist
line at ADJUST an up-and-doWn
pilIowcase effect
Children's fashions no less than
those of grown-ups emanate from
Paris. Yes. they really do, in spite Of
the excellence of American ideals on
the subject. And this is the interest
ing thing to consider-the long
WASTED type of frock for little girls
has already made itself apparent in
France. So while you will be tempted
to have some of your little girls, or
some of your little girls, frocks made
with the high empire waist line-that
is so demure and charming in the
crisp organdies and lawns when COM
bined with the very short sleeves and
worn, perchance. with a oke-shaped
hat-you will want some Of them
made with the new French long waist.
In some Of the shops you will not be
able to get these long-waisted frocks
yet; but in some others there are
very attractive ones. Needless to say.
the skirts are very short. because
nothing is more awkward than a
long-waisted frock that comes below
the knees. while the empire style of
frock Is rather demure and pretty
when it hangs rather low.
The long -waisted frock is rather
better. for play dresses than the
short-waisted one. The short WASTED
frock. or the frock that hangs from
a short yoke or smoked yoke. in
front, is apt to hang forward when
.the little girl leans over in play,
thus tripping her; while the one that
is belted in about the hips cannot
possibly do this.
Ribbons are used rather profusely
on the little girls clothes this year.
There are hats that are made entirely
of ribbon. and hats that have ribbon
bows and streamers. Extremely at
tractive are the hats trimmed with
little flowers made entirely of diff
ferent colored ribbons. These little
ribbon flowers are also used as trim
ming on some of the empire fashion
organdie dresses. Black velvet rib
bon is used for strings to tie lne
poke bonnets in place, and it is also
used to define the high waist line and
to tie in long loops at the back or
under one arm.

THE NEW AND FULL SKIRT.
BY ANNE R1TTENHoUsE.

| Special Correspondence Of The Star.
NEW YORK. May 3.-When the full
skirt burst upon the American public
about the middle of March. there was
| a gasp from the observers at what
was considered its impossibility.
| Women said it would never be worn
economists insisted they would not ac-

the heels of six months protest
against the narrow skirt.
Surely, there's no counting on the
consistency of human nature. The
most conservative men said: what
an abominable fashion. You women
never know when you look well. You
were stunning in the narrow skirt;
now you're adopting this hideous bal
loon" The cartoonists filled their pa
pers with caricatures of women wear
ing this new skirt, poking fun at them
in the immemorial way. These were
the same critics who last autumn dip
ped their pens in vitriol in order to
make women look absurd IN Inc tlght

pastures for their pleasures.

The blouse that goes with this skirt

FROM THE MEN WHO KNOW

The advertised stores of any com.
munity, of course, do the bulk Of the
business day in and day out and es /,
pecially so here. In Lakeland they
realize the value of the publicity that
good advertising does and the store
that advertises is right up to date.
Its stock is always of the best and It's
variety the greatest. Whenever a store
or any business of trade fails to ad-
vertise, it must be for one Of three
reasons: First, because the proprietor
thinks the public will not see his no.
tee; second, because the proprietor
thinks the public will not believe ir
his telling IL they do happen to see
II, and third, because the proprietor
feels that he has no goods of such ex-
ceptional value that he can, by adj
vertising persuade the publicyto come
In and look over his stock in trade.
The first reason is valid only II the
merchant is considering some, paper
OF small circulation. The second and
third reasons indicate lack Of conf
dence on, the part of the store in its
goods. No one, I'm sure, would have
the courage to put money into adver-
Using unless the goods had tlemon-
strated their value in practical exuera
ience. The public feels in buying adj
Vertised goods that it is getting some
thing that will make good every time,
Every one who would can plainly see

mas really become to be a vital shark
IN the life OF all trades. No man with
the goods can we'll afford to hole back

collector was behind in closing out

are questionable, but just mention
this fact to prove that it is bad ten
dency for tax collector to be allowed
to let one tax roll lap over into the
succeeding year. I believe that in the
past il all tax collectors had been re-
ouired to comply with the law, that is,
close out and make final settlement on
their tax rolls in July, that we would
have checked short in their accounts
a far less number of tax collectors

whole of her battle fleet.
Rome, the article points out, was

thage was the great naval power Of
