CHAPTER VII
Her Majesty's Rancho.

Five months brought all that Still
we'll had dreamed OF, and so many
more changes and improvements and
innovations that it was as if a magic
touch had transformed the old ranch.
Madeline and Alfred and Florence
had talked over a fitting name, and
had decided on one chosen by Made
line. But this instance was the only
one in the course Of developments in
which Madeline'S wishes were not
complied with. The cowboys named
the new ranch "Her Majesty's Ran
cho." Stillwell said the names cow
boys bestowed were felicitous, and as
Interchangeable es the everlasting hills;
Florence went over to the enemy; and
Alfred, laughing at Madeline's protest,
declared the cowboys had elected her
queen Of the ranges, and that there
was no help for it. SO the name stood
"Her Majesty's Rancho"
All that had been left of the OLE
Spanish house which had been Still
wells home for so long was the bare,
massive structure, and some of this
had been cut away for new doors and
windows. Every modern convenience,
even to hot and cold running water
and acetylene light, had been in
stalled; and the whole interior painted
and carpentered and furnished. The
ideal sought had not been luxury, but
comfort. Every door into the patio
looked out upon dark, rich grass and
sweet-faced flowers, ard every win
dow looked down the green slopes.
Madeline Hammond cherished a
fancy that the transformation she had
wrought in the old Spanish house and
in the people with whom she had sur
rounded herself, great as that trans
formation had been, was as nothing
compared to the one wrought Ia her
self. She had found an object in life.
She had seen her brother through his
difficulties, On the road to all the sue
cess and prosperity that he cared for.
Madeline had been a conscientious
student of ranching and an apt pupil
of Stillwell. The old cattleman, in his
simplicity, gave her the place IN his
heart that was meant for the daugh-
ter he had never had. His pride In
her, Madeline thought, was beyond
reason or belief or words to tell.
Under his guidance, sometimes accom-:
panied by Alfred and Florence, Made
line had ridden the ranges and had
studied the life and work of the cow
boys. Sometimes she looked in her
mirror and laughed with sheer joy at
sight of the 1.-THE, audacious, brown
faced, f1ashing-eyed creature reflected
there. 1t was not so much Joy in her
beauty as sheer Joy of life. Eastern
critics had been wont to call her
beautiful in those days when she had
been pale and slender and proud and
cold. She laughed. If they could only
see her now! From the tip Of her
golden head to her feet she was alive,
pulsating, on fire.

elaborate frocks she wants severe
hats.
In the charming gray and purple
salon of Jane Blanchot l saw the
hats photographed here, and CLEANED
much information concerning mil
linery styles for the winter.
Panne velvet Is to be the smart
material for hats, large and small.
Nearly every hat is colored or has
color in the trimming. The all-black
model Is hard to find.
Much of the trimming consists of
feathers. tassels of fancy effects that
fall low on the shoulder Bows Of
ribbon or loops of velvet are seen,
but they are applied quite fatty.
Ostrich feather fancies are popular
on large or small shapes. Picture
hats OF black velvet have old rose,
green, or blue ostrich tips arranged
on one side of the brim. Often the
brim is cut, to allow the trimming
TO fall through.
Match the Gown
Leather. popular on frocks. is
even more SO on hats and Is used to
make the hat. as well as combined
with velvet to make the trimming.
Felt shapes are popular for street
and are practically untrimmed. A
bunch of white ermine tails is be-
coming trim for black velvet shape.
Frequently hats match handbags
or belts, or carry out an embroidered
motif found on the frock. At all
times they give the effect Of being
q part of the costume.

linery department Of the VIM. H.

the best selection. The hats are
priced right, too. for quality and
workmanship are Of the best.
The hats In the French Salon are
the results Of the finest artistry
OF domestic and foreign designers
and their style and modishness
appeal to the woman who loves
beautiful clothes.
Whether you want a dress hat
for formal wear or a hat for sports
or street wear. you will find one
to suit your individuality and per
sonality in this department. Styles
are varied. varying from the tiny
cloche to the -brimmed dress

HIVE You Ever Thought How
Much of the
-attract1veness Of ones appearance
Is due to the small accessories? A
beautiful costume may be entirely
ruined by inappropriate or poorly
selected accessories.
Not only do these accessories in
tensify the charm of a new cos
Eume, but they give a chic. and
fresh appearance to the older
clothes. Many a dress has been so
changed by well chosen collars and
cuffs, by a lacy frill or gutmpe as
to be taken for a. new frock. These
accessories change with the
seasons in style and fashion as do
the suits and dresses. The Pettis
Dry Goods Company is showing a
very complete line Of new collars.

- iARlS. Sept. 2U-Only Two
types of hat are given any
- consideration in Paris--the
large Capeline model, to be worn
with the full, bouffant frocks. and
the very small hat, either a clOche
or a roll-brim.
In Paris you are fitted for hats,
just as you are for gowns. You try
on the models to find something that
least how long this takes you. Then
you enter upon a long consultation
concerning colors and trimmings.
Next a third party arrives on the
scene and charts your head with a
tapeline, recording all her findings
infinitely. more carefully than a
phrenologist would do it.
In a couple of days you arrive for
a fitting. after your chapeau has
taken on a certain shape bearing a
resemblance to the original. On this
occasion you make sure that your
head has not increased or decreased
and that you have not changed your
mind.

Waterman Brothers Have Good Look.
ing Prospect

Walter Waterman was in Pitkin
few hours Monday of this week on
business. Walter has been spending
the winter in Mackintyre gulch near
Ohio City where he has done consid-
cradle mining
He and his brother Jack, have
been getting out ore and had hoped
to get car for shipment, but sur
face water began coming into their
tunnel so fast that they had to aban-
don their ambition till later
They are working the Black Hawk
claim which lies adjoining the earns
brothers property in Mackintyre
gulch. They have a vein some six
feet wide in which is good ore
shute carrying silver values from
$40 up.
The boys have out over seven tons
of ore and will complete getting out
enough for car load this summer.
1t is frequent prediction that
big mine is yet to be opened up in
Mackintyre gulch. Let us hope there
will be number such mines
