counting the greenbacks into Mrs. Jarr's eager hands. Seventy one, seventy-two. and here's ten more, and eighteen, and that's just hun dred." Mrs. Rangle could hear Mir. Jarr say
 T wish my husband would come for his dinner tonight and bring me a present like that sighed Mrs. Rangle, wistfully, and departed.
 After dinner in the Jarr menage, the family gathered around the din- their wealth. Mrs. Jarr produced a box which she had locked care fully in her closet and placed it on the table. where Gertrude, the maid, Master Willie and little Emma Jarr gazed at 1t with admiring eyes. And when Mrs. Jarr opened it, all present, even MT. Jarr. murmured in delight. It was filed with greenbacks and yell low backs, pleasing to the eye, and considering the vast quantity, aston ishing to the mind.
 To this treasure Mrs. Jarr added the roll of greenbacks MT. Jarr had brought home this very evening.
 This Christmas at least, the Christmas that was rapidly ap- preaching, every member of that lit- tie group would have all their desires fulfilled.
 q want cut-glass or gold brace let watch and I think I will get a set of fine china. too,' said Mrs. Jarr, T can keep 1t in the china closet,

under lock and key, to use only when we have company, and then Gertrude can't smash it."
 Gertrude took this remark in good part. She was gazing fascinated at the stack of crisp green and yellow backs. She knew that this Christ mas she would share in this self-evi- dent prosperity of the family she. served.
 And I can get an electric engine, a gun and a radio set, can't l, maw?' asked Master Jarr.
 And l want lots of dollies and a doll house and a doll baby carriage and a whole lot of things," cried the little girl. Cant I, mamma?"
 What do you want. papa?" asked Mrs. Jarr, the head of the family. There's plenty here this Christmas to get something for us all"
 "Oh. never mind me-" said the in- dulgent husband and father T only wish that you and the children and Gertrude may have what you want. can get something for myself later on, for I am not going to swear off smoking New Years"
 Yes, of course, they were cigar store coupons. Did you think the Jarrs had green and yellowbacks in real money?

DELICATE FR0CKS

Now that women are becoming ac- customed to the seyerer type of for nal evening dress, one notices that here and there gowns directly op- posite in feeling and shape are ap- bearing and establishing their hold on our fancy. Everywhere one finds the regal gold robe, or the heavy, fur trimmed brocade or draped vel vets in glowing beauty, and the ap- pearance of a clinging, floating chif- ion frook in the palest of tones cre- ates some important notice. They are slowly but surely coming back to stay, as the demand creates the sup ply, and there always will be some certain women who will look best in this type of costume and demand it.
 The very formal gowns are really becoming to only minority of wom- en, and soft, clinging feminine things show up to better advantage a girl ish, youthful form. Lines which fol- low the natural curves of the body are not only attractive but seem to ex- press party spirit and joyousness more in keeping with the evening gayety than the sedate, formal gar ments which appear so serious and well behaved.
 The soft, thin silk dress with float ing panels and full, clinging> skirt holds an equal part in fashions win- ter performance with the straight and with the 1idFeQ SllnOutlleS. IL IS dlSG forerunner of southern wear dresses, and we will even find these early models showing the lead for spring and summer frocks. One mus: not therefore overlook the. tendencies which they take, and any fresh touch added to them is sure to mean a great deal.
 MateriaIs Fine And Dainty.
 The Keynote of charm in the new frocks depends mainly upon the sheerness and frailty of the materials which are all of the finest and most delicate. texture. Materials which ap- pear to lead the ranks are chiffons and web-like ke serepess and crepe de chine and softest charmeuse and satin. Laces of all kinds are of ex- treme importance, being used In all widths and degrees of heaviness. Gold and silver lace and the various com binations of metal and silk lace show a certain beauty all their own, and find ample room to display it on matching tones. Fine, black lace and different types of imported and espe cially the Spanish laces are seen In striking contrast over dresses of white and cream satin chiffon. Rows upon rows of narrow lace trim the edges of panels and sleeves which ap- pear almost fairy-like for actual use. CoIorings Are Delicate.
 In strict harmony with the quality of the materials, we find the color ings of these dresses retain a delight

INCEPTION OF A BOOK
Discussion Resulting In Derieux's
 Animal Personalitfes'


 Samuel A. Derieux, a young editor on the staff of the American Maga- zine, whose distinctive stories of animal life were first recognized and published by his friend and chief, John Siddall, stood with MT. Siddall one day waiting for an elevator. On the wall opposite was a picture of horse shivering with cold outside fence in front of house and barn. Snow was on the ground, but there was a light in the house and the barn looked comfortable.
 If that were a muIe," remarked Mir. Derieux he'd find a way to get inside the barn. MT. Siddall was curious. During lunch MT. Derieux explained that a mule had more sense than horse and talked about the personalities of other barnyard animals. chickens, goats, cows, the country boys familiar friends who are sometimes startling human, al- ways individual. His discussion was the conception of the volume of sketches, Animal Personalities.''
 Last year shortly before the pub lication of his first book. Frank of Freedom Hill," Mr. Derieux died sud- denly, cut off at the beginning of promising career. Since then has come the death of John Siddall, the editor, whose faith and encourage ment are in a measure responsible for this volume.-Cleveland Plain Dealer.

SHIFTING WORKERS
Estimate Made That 0 Million Change
 Employment Every Year


 The estimate that 9 million workers change employment every year-the quoted opinion of a speaker at the convention of the American Manage ment association-puts the total re- markably high.
 The country has perhaps 40 million persons engaged In fairly regular gainful employment. About one-fourth of these belong. on the farms, where a large part work for themselves, and steady workers do not often change jobs, Ten per cent more consist of public servants and clerical workers; both classes are noted for their long tenure of positions. A considerable number in trade and the manufactur- ing industries have proprietary inter : ests or acquired advantages in their positions which hold them from change. Almost the whole of the shift from job to job must take place among some 25 million workers.
 If so many as one one-third of these each year change employment, the aggregate disturbance to business warrants study. The lost motion spent in hunting and in learning new job cannot be calculated with much cer- tainty but loss does take place. At the suggested average cost of Sl0O Tor each change of employment it would reach 300 million dollars. So high figure would imply that the average worker does not nearly earn his pay until the fifth or sixth week.
 This seems unlikely of even the average worker, and certainly one could not say it of carpenters, sailors, trained nurses or workers in others of a long list of callings where the nature of the work compels even the experts to change frequently to new berths. Even at much lower az gregate. say 300 million dollars, the economic waste in changes of em- ployment runs high enough to call for reduction to the utmost extent possible One per cent, or so of the national income is worth redeeming.- New York Sun and Globe.

full daintiness of tone The whole rainbow of pastel shades is displayed besides ever-varying combinations of tones, which seem to create brand new colors.
 s The laces are often seen dy ed to match the chiffon or silk of the frock itself, and interesting effects are gained by the clever use of many diff ferent materials, such as ribbons, laces, flowers and silk or chiffon, all of the exact shade. This subtle
 method of arrangement keeps the whole costume subdued, and really makes dress serve it's original pur- pose, that of being 8 setting to show off the beauty of the jewel within it.
 Although we are struck by the continual appearance and reappear- ance of black and white models they never seem startling or in violent contrast because the feeling of soft ness and delicacy Is adhered to. The designers do this by combining black lace or thin black chiffon with the white, thus softening all the black to gray tone. On the other hand, show the same thought in their |prigination.
 As an illustration a dress itself is
 made of clinging white satin, cut simply and featuring the new short
 sleeves and soft folds of satin down
 the front. There is barely any sheen
 to the satin, as it is of the sheer
 rather dull finished kind Starting from points at the shoulders, long, floating wings of black net lace fall way down the back of the dress. At the waistline, the lace Is fulled onto the belt at the side, where 1t reaches the hem of the gown. Then in front the lace takes a downward line, rang ing way below the white like an apron, but the sheerest of aprons to be sure. Cut jet beads are sewed
 across the front of the belt. being the
 only decoration needed on the dress.
 Wing Sleeves Most Graceful.
 l Another features the new wing | like drapery which takes the place of the sleeve, but is ever so much more graceful and has the quality of light
 ness and youth. It makse for a | floating silhouette, quite flower-like
 and airy. The entire dress is made
 of crepe. The dullness and texture of | the crepe give & character to the folds and drapes beautifully. At the waist line, which is at the normal line, a up daintily on the pale peach ton6 of the material. deep yoke of fine
 silver lace reaches across the straight neck and forms tiny sleeves like caps over the shoulders. then falls down the back and is tucked in the belt of narrow silver ribbon. The wings are
 attached only at tho shoulders and
 then tied with perky silver bows at
 each wrist. The back is plain with a alone give interest to the dress. For young girls. this style is especially
 suitable in its simplicity. and naive ness.

 In zoos in the larger cities of the world the zoo surgeons, maintained to keep the animals in repair are buster than ever. it is reported Snakes frequently break their jaws and alligators engage in fights and get so badly ripped that they have to be repaired some times with band- ages and plaster of paris casts. Of all animals the jsguar seems to fight most bitterly against being chloro- formed.

 then is covered up. both parents joining in the work until it becomes a mound The salmon lays about nine hundred eggs for each pound or her weight. The American salmon. unlike those that live in other wa ters, are peculiar in that the parent salmon seldom get back to sea alive.
