WOOL SHAWLS FOR WINTER
Wrap That May Be Thrown Across
Shoulders CareiessIy Will Keep
Out Frigid Blasts.

The desire for Spanish shawls is
not, it seems, just an isolated fight.
for we are to have shawls for the
winter, too. They are to be of wool and
embroidered, and, generally speaking.
they are TO retain much of the grace
and charm possessed by the highly
colored ones of this season.
Women have found them too becom-
ing to part with them lightly. and they
are practical adjuncts to the ward
robe, to be sure, for they can be
thrown across the shoulders careless
ly, vet effectively, if keeping out
frigid blasts happens TO be subjecf

and this was her story:
I'm a little bit of hut there lived
a little old man with little old wife
and a little old dog.
"They lived very happily there to-
gether until one day along came a
great fine-looking man who said to the
dog:
"'FoIlow me and will give you fine
bones and you will live in riches.
"'You will not be poor as you
now are, but you will be fed with the
finest of bones and everything else
that you can desire
Line uOS was very huhSAy IhOA aAO
the word bones made him dream OF
a glorious life ahead.
80 he followed the man, and the
little old man and the little old woman
were very sad.
But after few weeks had gone
by the dog came back and he licked
the face of the little old man and OF
the little old woman, and he said in
his dog way:
"I got bones and fine food. but l
couldn't get the love that 1 had here,
and that is more important than any
thing else in the world, for bones are
eaten, and one can have enough of
them, but love can't be eaten, and one
can never have enough of it
"And from then on the little old
man and the little old woman and the
dog lived happily together again. and
never again did sadness come to the
little hut"
