a number of those in the second story

closed.

The whole affair looked hopeless.
About all 1 could do would be to send
the torn note to the proper authorities
IN Washington. with a statement of
how it came into my possession, and
1et them dispose of the matter in any
way they deemed best. I wrote such
a letter carefully on hotel stationery,
and went down to mail it in the lobby.
Before dispOsing of it in the mailbox
I encountered the manager, Burke, and
stopped for a word. We were still
talking when a bellboy came up hur-
-iedly with a message. Burke turned.

or more wears a bOnnetlike shape with
Il round crown having about it a band
of faille ribbon with short ends at the
back Only good qualities in ribbon
are used on these hats because they
must see much service. At the top of
the group a shape that is very sue
cessful, for girls from seven TO sixteen
is shown. 1t is the wide-brimmed
French sailor shape in milan with its
brim edged with a flange of the braid
in a darker color or shade than that
in the body of the hat. 1t has wide
collar and sash ends OF heavy ribbon.
At the right of it another little bonnet
shape for younger girls appears with
square crown above its dropping brim
and sash of ribbon. Below is another
variation of the French sailor reveal

larger crown than the first sailor. For
a very little miss one may select a
bonnet with milan brim and satin
crown, or the very elegant model
which finishes the group-a square
crowned poke with handsome wide
ribbon furnishing a sash with long
ends.

enough. But Mr.. Giant said it was well
to go over the things we must not do,
every once in awhile, as well as the
things we must do.
"Of course he agreed with me- that
the word Do was much more impor-
tant than the word DON'T.
But now we must be having tea"
AS Witty Witch said this, six little
elves who had promised TO help her
with the tea came forth carrying trays
with all sorts of good things to eat.
There were cookies and pastries
and sandwiches and tea and little
hard candies of different colors.
Even if 1 did give you lecture, :"
said Witty Witch, I'm going to make
UP for it by giving a fine tea.
And then after tea time we're go
ing TO hear a story.
They all had a most delicious and
splendid tea party, and after it was
over Witty Witch told this story:
Mr.. and Mrs. Dove were very de-
voted and happy.
Every day Mrs. Dove used to ask
Mr.. Dove if he loved her and every
day Mr.. Dove said that he did
"One day though Mr.. Dove said,
You silly Mrs. Dove, of course I
love you. l should think you would
know that by this time OF course
Mrs. Dove did know it, but she wanted
to be told 1t just the same.
But she decided she wouldn't ask
him that question any more. a few
days went by and she didn't ask that
question. Mr.. Dove became very much
worried that Mrs. Dove no longer
cared for him.
Finally he could stand it no long
er. You don't care whether I care
for you or not he said, you haven't
asked me in days now whether I love
you or not

answered. You do, don't your

cred chest and said,
"'Of course l do, you silly little
dove. How often do 1 have to tell
you the same thing And Mrs. Dove

TO say that TO her, but he missed an

missed asking it in truth ="

fascinating work when the time comes
to make them. Women delight in fash

they include such gifts as friends like

small bags, ribbOn-lined baskets, pin

as the articles pictured, are made in
