one may want party dress there il
no reason why they should expect the
whole world and what every one else
ever had on a party dress to go On me,
or be on me-whichever you say. I'm
not much OF a talker."
MY dear party Dress" said a ging-
ham dress, peeping from its counter.
"You can't talk well for talk comes
from the mouth or the throat or both.
I've heard that at times it comes from
the brain too-Where creatures think.
But dresses can't make conversation
well. No, it's impossible. You haven't
a mouth. And you can't work by your
self for you haven't any hands,
"Well," said the fairy, as she hoped
upon a counter, what are we going
to play tonight?"
II don't know" said the Bingham
dress, II don't feel much like play

gingham dresses. Most of the others

"I'm angry that things should be
unfair,'' said the gingham dress.
'Yes," said the blue apron, II know
just what the Bingham dress means.
We aren't given any chances at all.
We have to he so plain and we have to
be worn for dull things such as dust

thing like that. Why can't we go to
parties and hear music and see dane

your wishes will be granted. Yes, they

THE REQUESTS.

Sometimes when the great store was
dark and when the people had gone
home the things in the store had story
telling hours and games and frolics
and all sorts Of nice times.
Sometimes they talked and some
times they played and sometimes they
would sing to themselves and to each
other.
There were times, too, when they
would tell what had gone on during
the long day when people had been
shopping and when children had come
and gone and come back again.
Many a long talk did they all have
and they had so much to tell always
Of what happened in the daytime.
They had so many children they want
ed to describe to each other, children
some had missed seeing. So this Ia
what happened one evening, and per
haps we may hear Of some more
things that happened too, later on.
But to go on with what happened on
this evening, Just after the people had
left the store.
It was after six o'clock. The great
children's store which sold everything
anyone could think of-from canary
birds to party frocks-was silent and
attn. All the counters were covered
with dark-blue linen covers Every.
thing, in short, was put away for tho
night.
Suddenly there came laughing. All
the dresses and gloves and pocket
books and sashes peeped out from
their blue coverings and began to
laugh too. Just then, flying down the
aisles Of the store, between the coun-
ters, came 4 fairy.
TITS such joke, such 4 Joke" she
said. ''They all think we've gone to
rest. OF course am not dress, nor
am I q sash, but play With all Of you
and so I say we in 4 most friendly
manner: To be sure you Ill do have 4
rest, later on, for you need it after
the day you've had. But for time
we play"
"Oh," said blue apron, ~ had the
most awful time today. just couldn't
stretch out. No one seemed to like
me much so first I was thrown one
way and then another. I thought my
poor calico legs and arms would never
>be smoothed out properly. It was
most uncomfortable"
"You have nothing to grumble
about" said party dress from near
by, "you weren't tried on and criti-
cized and tried on again. Oh, my feel

 Here n woman of genteeI appearance lnterposed:
 May I say a word. judge?' Granted the request, she continued-
 Esther is my daughter and until a short time ago she was a very good girl. She has always lived >t home and never had to work and have tried to keep her in the true Christian path
 Here the judge interrupted:

 Did you ever go to q dance with herr"
 "oh no. judge I don't believe in 5ancing''
 Perhaps that is just the trouble the court suggested Tt is natural for young girls to want to dance and enjoy themselves If you would take an i.l- terest with her in such things and ac- company her to places of entertainment her entire life might be changed" And 10 show her that the primrose path has many thorns, Judge Thomas sentenced the girl TO serve 10 days in the city

Mrs. Hamilton
 Fails tn Attempt
 to SWir11 Channel

London. September 2.-For the second time woman has attempted. to swim the English channel and failed. Mrs. Arthur Hamilton, daughter of the late Sir Charles and Lady Fairlie CuninS- hame, started from St. Margarets bay last evening at 6:l0 o'clock with ,Cape Grisnez near Calais, as her objective. This morning she was forced to abandon the attempt near the South Goodwin Sands
 Mrs. Hamilton was the first woman to make the trial since Annette Kellerman failed fifteen years ago. Mrs Hilda Walling, an English woman, intends to attempt swimming the channel In the near future.
 Mrs. Hamilton was in the water for twelve hours and says she got to within nine miles of the French coast. She attributed her failure to reach France to the heavy seas and strong currents Nevertheless, she declared, she had ac- complished what she set out to do-to set a record for women swimmers. Mrs Hamilton asserted that she was deter mined to try again next year to swum the channel.
 Annette kellerman in 1905 twice essayed to swim across the English channel. In July of that year she was said to have swum for five hours then being com peled to give up on account of seasick- ness. On August 24 the thirtieth anni- tieth anniversary of Capt. Matthew Webbs successful swim across the chan nel, Miss Keflerman again was reportea to have been overcome by seasickness after swimming six miles and abandoned her effort to reach the French coast.
 Aside from Captain Webb, the only other person to swim the English chan rel was T. w. Burgess. who made the trip on September 5-6, 1911. Webb's tune was 21 hours 45 minutes and that or Burgess 22 hours 35 minutes
 The distance across the channel from Dover to Calais is about twenty-one miles.
 The English channel, which so long has Haunted the challenge of it's strong currents and rough seas before the worlds best swimmers with only two de- feats recorded against it, is again the object of a determined attack. Not oniy swimmers but oarsmen, and even one girl water cyclist have been bending their endeavors toward overcoming the ,, tremendous obstacle of the turbulent waters.
 Mrs. Hamiltons failure to swim across last night and thereby the first woman to achieve success has not deterred Mrs Milda Wilding, another intrepid EnSlish- woman from making the attempt to- morrow evening. The American sw'm' | mer, Henry Sullivan, of Lowell. Mass who made an unsuccessful effort las week. plans to try again Sunday night | Last week two young oarsmen starteo l out to scull across from England, pu
 were compelled to give up the attemp,
 Recently, too. Miss Zetta Hulls got al most across on a watercycIe. but the ma chine broke down when she was near 1 ing the goal.
