THE dinner for the Benedicts was
l. certainly n strange affair, and when
! looked back upon It nfterward, It
seemed as though much or what fol-

I had told Edith before ] left her
in her room that the affair was in
formal, but when she trniled down
stairs to the living room, she made
Vlvien Benedict and me look like n
couple of women in last years frocks.
To be sure her dress was not strictly
formal. although It was cut low IN
front. but 1t was sleeveless and OF som"
transparent black material made over
a tight fitting silver slip. She would
have been correctly dressed for the
most formal kind of dinner party and
yet everything about her was TOO eX.
Quisitely simple to be out Of place.
Where had she learned to dress like
that, and where had she perfected that
manner of hers?
When | introduced her TO Nivien

seemed too florid and highly colorcd.
Edith was so slim and dainty, SO flow
er-like, and yet there was something
about her that drew the attention of
every one IN the room.
At dinner | felt thrill Of satisfac-
ton when | saw Norman's eyes rest
on her again and again. and at the

Stuart Metal Mounts
BY Harold Donaldson Eberlein

The decorative hardware used on fur
niture is spoken of as mounts" The
term mounts includes scutcheons or
keyplates for keyholes, the various
kinds of pulls or knobs for doors and
drawers, and hinges. In each period
certain well defined forms Of mounts oc-
Cured and contributed an essential part
of the character to the furniture Of that
period. They deserve attention because
they have very real decorative value.
The mounts of the Stuart period were
not so conspicuous ms the mounts Of
some Of the later periods. They were
usually made Of either iron or brass.
Figures A and II in the illustration
show common forms Of iron drop pulls
for drawers and doors Such forms as
are indicated by figures c and - were
generally made Of brass. Sometimes
more elaborate chased brass drops such
as figure f. occurred, or plain brass
fretted pulls Ike +. Frettcd brass
keyplates ike figure G were sometimes
used. Little brass knobs of the pattern
shown in II We're likewise employed
In the Stuart furniture reproduced at
the present day the mounts are often
carefully designed after the old pat
terms. Sometimes. however. this fea-
ture has been disreGarded The pur-
chaser of Stuart reproductions should
insist upon having the mounts of ap-
prOpriate character as well as the other
features Of the piece.

As soon as he could Herbert escaped
and came over to me.
! ITS good to see you again, JOAN"
! he said simply.
| | smiled up nj him gratefully. Il
was good to hear him say that. but
dear as Herbert had always been. I
could not believe that he really wanted
TO be with me with Edith and WIVES
Benedict In the room. 1t was that con
viction that made me ask quickly,
"What do you think Of my little Sis
ter:'
His eyes followed mine across the
room. Edith was leaning back in a
big chair. Her jade cigarette holder
and her scarlet lips were the only
CLINT Of silver through the black. She
was telling story and both Norman
and "Bennie" seemed to be hanging
on her words. Vivien sat back little
from the other three. She was watch
ing Edith closely and without the bril-
lance of her smile. her features were
rathcr heavy. Plainly she was furi
Gus because Norman was paying so
little attention TO her.
"What do think Of her." Herbert
repeated tie words after me. "Do you
want me to tell YOU the truth, Joan:'
"Of course" ! responded eagerly.
"iou won't mind if say exactly
what | thnk?'
"C"rtainly not" and my tone showed
my surprise.
"Well, She's the type Of girl that I
dislike most. I have seen any number
Of them AT dances and affairs this last
season. She's clever and she affects
sophiStication and wordliness as a pose.
Nothing she does or says is natural,
everything about nor is cultivated, Be-
side YOU she's like an orchid raised
in hothouse, while you are like an
open air rose, with your roots firmly
embedded in the fresh EARTH"
In spite Of myself I flushed, al.
though / answered him lightly.
"Why. Herbert. what charming
compliment :" But the look in his cyps
aS they met mine made me realize that
he had NOT intended to pay me Il c0mpl!-
ment, he had told mo tho simple truth
and something ticrccly glad rose UP In
my heart in response to his loyalty.
Here was one man who could not be
won away from mo, even though nv

other woman but mo.

fuffed hair, her raised hand and her
rapidly turning head in a vain attempt
to see the stage.
She has been twisting about and fling
ing herself brutally from side to side
for so long that you d expect her to be
worn out but she emerges as fresh and
! Tapping as new flag in stiff breeze.
d ESTLESSNESS - it's the disease
~ which brings uphnrpincss.
Why. if one of these girls, or the
boys of the same age, is high and dry
without anything exciting to do. the
world must Immediately be turned over
in search of something.
It's impossible to take anything qul-
etly when they get into that state Of
mind.
Anything that isn't shoutingly funny
or thrillingly interesting Is not to bS
considered for second.
That's the reason for the rudeness
that is so prevalent among those who
fap. Its tiresome 70 be polite: and
there's q pleasant feeling of daring in
seeing how much brusque behavior they
can get away with.
How are they ever going to recover
from it without frightful shock?
THIS kind Of thing cannot possibly
i 60 on ms long as they do. Some
time there will have to be a break. Men
and women. business men, mothers Of
growing children can't so on Tapping
like half grown ducks
Nom tlappers who have warned these
sufferers from restlessness have TO stand
by and watch them now in their race
downhill.
But when they land at the bottom
and either stop with terrific jolt that
will knock all the desire to flap out
of them. or else keep right on despor-
ately. unhappily, because they can't
stop. some peop'e, are going to stand by
and say, "Ah- -hah. told you so. ~
It's restlessness that makes them
flap: unless they slow up gradually
and look at things n little more sensibly,
it will be disillusion or disaster that
viii stop them.

This party was featured in many OF the
newspapers and created a sensation.
Members of the medical profession
fought the idea. with warnings that the
practice was dangerous to the health,
and State and city governing bodies
passed laws prohibiting and discourng.
ing the use of bathtubs. The State OF
Virginia passed a law taxing. owners
of bathtubs $50 year. In Boston a
law was passed which was In effect from
1S45 to 1862, forbidding one to take
bath except upon advice Of physician;
The cities of Providence, Hartford and
Wilmington put high water tax upon
buildings which contained bathtubs.
and in Philadelphia law was proposed
making 1t unlawful to bathe between
November I and March 10. This failed
by passage by margin of two votes.
