WITHIN the walls OF home, cheer-
w full breakfast coats and frivolous
negligees continue to help us
start the day right and spend its
leisure hours in comfort. These pretty
garments show no radical departures
from the negligees of yesterday-they
still include Japanese and Chinese
coats and kimonos, jackets and coats
In soft colors in which silks and laces
join hands with ribbons and flowers
to make the ARREST Of garments. But
the season strikes a new note by pre-
senting us with negligees made of
black crepe de chine with black fringe,
or lace or panels of g~eorgette as deco
rative features, and nothing relieves
this all-black on some of the models.
Others show small ribbon roses in gay
colors set at the bottom of panels.
Another negligee sent over by Paris
Is more cheerful and more promising.

colors and ornamented with applique

Five Mile Beach weekly journal., 1921-12-09

Ray Clarke paced up and down the
floor and wondered how he could have
been so happy-so free from nervous
ness for so long a time.
He hated the great beauty of the
outside world. When he heard people
wishing each other Merry Christmas"
he almost hated their smiles and their
cheerful voices.
How deeply he loved Lillian. She
was worth all the Christmas presents
in the world! OF course. There were
no two ways about that.
And the doctor had said with such
a genial, merry twinkle in his eyes:
well, l fancy the young son and
heir will be a Christmas present from
the missus to your
He had laughed ut the time, and
Lillian had blushed and smiled and
laughed, too. The doctor was such
a friendly old soul-he had been the
doctor when Lillian had been born.
And he was fine, too
But perhaps he counted too much on
Lillian's strength. Ray had been sent
out Of the room and he had been alone
here now for so long.
At first he had been so full of high
spirits. But the delay had been so
strange. They hadn't told him there
would be any such delay. They had
simply sent him out of the room and
had said that everything was all right,
and that they'd come and tell him
soon to be back to see his child.
He would go upstairs. He couldn't
stand this another moment. And it
was so quiet. He had fancied it
would not be quiet. Then he heard a
strange shrill voice.
How %curiously it sounded. Was
that Lillian. She must be very Ill to
have a voice sound so curiously. He
never heard 1t like that.
They couldn't keep him from her.
She would want him, too. OF course
she would,
He hurriedly ran up the stairs. The
doctor was at the top Of the stairs.

could have for her new home.
"We really can't afford to buy
another thing just now and that will
do beautifully"
'But the monogram her husband
inquired.
"Oh, that can be taken off you
know, and another one put there In
its place. 1 heard some one ordering
that to be done in one of the silver
shops the other day"
"Yes, that's a splendid idea," her
husband heartily agreed.
"P1l go downtown and attend to 1t
tomorrow. 1 haven't much time.

The next evening he asked her If
she had arranged about sending the
gravy dish to Molly Stevens.
IT couldn't send it," she said.
"Why notT' he queried.
Because of the monogram in the
center" she said.
"But you told me that that could
be erased by the f~lversmiths and a
new monogram placed there" her
husband persisted.
T know I did," the young bride
answered, but you see they told me
today at the shop that it would be
possible to do it were 1t not for the
fact that 1t had been done so often to
this gravy dish that they wouldn't
dare take a chance with it again.
They'd not be able to avoid boring a
hole this time! 1t has been given
away once too often for me to put to
any use," she sighed sadly.
