New Scarfs Very Long;
Make Imposing Display

All of the new scarfs are very long
and consequently make an imposing
appearance, says a Paris fashion
writer In the New York Herald-Trib-
une. A Louise boulanger novelty
scarf, which is two meters long and
almost a meter wide, has border de-
sign which appears at one end only. A
little less than three-quarters of the
length of the scarf is given over to a
sort of notified coloring, such as Is
seen in colored alabaster, while one
deep border end is frankly printed In
large squares of vivid tones which
are family lined with an opposing
color.
In general, indications are that the
color phase of the autumn mode will
be once more predicated upon black
and white, but that wide divertlse-
ment of brilliant hues will be admit
ted in order to vary vogue which Is
a heritage from previous seasons.

! HOW GREAT MEN

LOVE LETTERS
FRANZ LIST AND THE
PRINCESS Won SAYN-
WITTGENSTEIN
By JOSEPH KAYE
70 by wheeler syndicat

THERE may be great planists today,
= tremendous geniuses of the key.
BOARD by whom music-lovers and critics
swear; but the world is pretty well
agreed that there never has beer a
greater pianist than Franz List. He
is one Of that irnperishable group Of
artists who have no rivals and are so
set down in history.
List lived In the age Of George
Sand and the influence Of that amor
GUS and assertive lady was felt by
Liszt as well. as by that circle Of ar
lists who made up large part Of the
art substance Of the age. George Sand
set an example of freedom In love
which has never since been achieved
by anyone else. List, however, con-
tented himself with but two principal
loves. One of the ladies was the Com
tesse D'Agoult and the other was the
Princess Won n-Wittgenstein. Both
women were extremely beautiful. intel
lectual and adored List. And what
made it more interesting for all par
were married
The plots Of LISTS two noted af.
fairs of the heart are intricate and
would take a volume to do them
proper justice. But the ladies are now
but dim memories and hardly worth
that expense Of energy. The only me.
mento remaining to US Of LISTS loves
that is important Is the wife Of Rich.
ard Wagner, who was a love daugh.
ter of the pianist's and who, true to
traditions, married the great composer
after getting rid Of her husband. Won
Bulow, one Of Wagner's dearest
friends.
The following are some excerpts
from LISTS love letters to the prin-
cess:
Next to my hours In church the
sweetest and dearest are those / spend
with you.
"Since ! must not have the bliss OF
seeing you again this evening, let me
at least tell you that will pray with
you before I sleep. Our prayers are
uAAlSu a. VuI SOuiS.S
"How 1t is written above that you
should be my providence and my good
angel here below! / necessarily have
recourse to you with prayers, suppl
cations and benedictions. My words
flow always to you as my prayer
mounts to God"
The religious tone of the letters is
accounted for by the fact that Llszt
at one time thought that he was des-
tined for the priesthood and for a
brief period the world called him
"Abbe."

Dog Asks for Little,
but Deserves Much

When you reach home at night, tired
from the days work. a wild bark of
JOY heralds your arrival and down the
path pell-mell comes your old pal.
That little pat on the head you give
him as you hurry supperward means
a lot to hint has been said that a
dog will do more for less than any
creature on the face of the earth, says
a writer in Outdoor America.
In return for the many services he
renders would 1t not be sportsmanlike
to see that he Is well taken care of.
Wouldn't 1t be easy to put up wire
and hook his chain on this so he may
have little exercise-if he must be
chained2
And when you see some bedraggled
old purp running along the street with
his tongue hanging out don't call some
one to shoot him-all he wants Is a
drink Of water. He may belong to
some little chap who thinks as much
Of him as you very likely did of that
NANCY hound which you kept in d.
rect disregard Of parental orders when
you were a lad.
Warm up and dish out little Of
this widely spoken of and seldom
seen milk of human kindness.

Uncut Felt Used
in Fall Chapeau
Brirn Sewed to Crown, Feat.
ure Of Latest Headgear
Shown in Paris.

The present trend of Paris millinery
is decidedly toward felt, usually uncut
and invariably untrimmed, says Paris
fashion correspondent In the New
York Herald-Trfbune. This classic
model was designed by Reboux and
aas about ten variations. The distinc-
tive feature Of these hats Is that the
Grim Is sewed to the crown, overlap
ping the crown on the outside at about
an inch and a half from the head size.
The two ends Of the piece Of felt,
which form the brirn, are drawn one
over the other and cut into wingIike
points. which protrude from both sides
and are shaped In manner most be-
coming to the wearer. Sometimes
these points are knotted, but. however
treated. they are always placed at the
back or right-side back. Black felt.
gray felt, beige, light blue and even
pale pink are used In the makeup Of
.hese extremely chic small hats.
Another variation Is the small felt
,at, shown by Rose Descat, with
.rown indented in circular form SINH

square outline. The brim is narrow

light side which shows a slight droop.

Return" Habit Costly
to Parties Concerned

Have you an overgrown return
habit? Or do you, on the other hand,
dread, as much as anyone, the posi-
bility of buying goods that some one
else has taken home, tried on repeated
ly-and perhaps even worn!
One out of every three articles sold
in the average shop, states New York
store manager. is returned for ex-
change or credit. This practice, he
says, results In a loss to the store
and the store generally and justifiably
mikes up the loss by Increase In the
price of other articles. Such system
means that the woman who hasn't the
return" habit must pay for the usual
ly merely indecisive. sometimes un-
scrupulOus, nature of the woman who
has.
The custom of taking goods from the
stores on approval grew up before en-
phasis began to be laid on sanitation,
and has been losing ground of late.
Most stores today refuse to take back
articles for personal use. such as
combs and brushes, and sometimes
place labels in prominent places on
wearing apparel, refusing to permit
their return when missing label Sig
nifies that the garment may have been
worn by the customer. The laber de-
vice grew out Of the desire to protect
both shoppers and merchants against
certain constituencies persons who
wore the borrowed garments on one or
more occasions and then returned
them to the store to be sold to an I'M
suspecting customer. This type of per-
SON induced some merchants to limit
the period in which goods might be ex-
changed or returned to a very few

WILLIAM PENN AND Gull
IELMA SPRINGETT

THE famous Quaker and founder OF
= Pennsylvania married the beautiful
Gulielma Springett. the daughter Of q
Puritan officer, and theirs was happy
life out OF the ordinary. When Penn
harassed by religious prosecutions, Sc.
cured the tract Of land In the New
World and was about to set sail for
the great adventure. he left his wife
one Of the most affecting pieces In Eng.
lish literature, farewell letter, the
like OF which It is hardly possible to
find. This letter contains about seven
thousand words and begins:
my love. which neither sea nor land
nor death itself can extinguish, or les
sen towards you. most endearedly
visits you with eternal embraces and
will abide with you forever; and may
the God Of my life watch over you and
bless you and do you good in the world
and forever! Some things are upon my
spirit to leave with you in your re-
spective capacities. as am to one a
husband and to the rest father, IL !
should never again see you In this
world.
"My dear wife, remember thou vast
the love Of my youth and much the JOY
of my life; the most beloved as well as
the most worthy of all my earthly com
forts; and the reason of that love was
more thy inward than thy outward ex-
cellencies, which were many. God
knows, and thou knowest 1t, can say
1t was a match of Providence's making
and Gods image In us both was the
first thing and the most amiable and
engaging in our eyes. Now am to
leave thee and that without knowing
whether shall ever see thee more In
this world, take my counsel in thy
bosom and let II dwell with thee in my
stead while thou Invest. :"
There follows many pages Of PENIS

children's conduct. expressed In beau
tiful and sincere language and the let
ter ends:
$50 farewell to thee. my dearly be-
loved wife and children-yours as God
pleaseth, in that which no waters can
quench, no time forget nor distance
wear away, but remain for ever.

1t Is an interesting coincidence that
this letter was written. almost to the
month, on the tenth anniversary Of

Beaded Envelope Purse
Is Always Attractive

An envelope purse Of MORE silk,
beaded with steel beads is very attrac-
tive. About three-eighths yard each of
MORE silk and satin for the timing
will be needed. Cut the silk IS by
TN inches. Stamp a simple design
on one or both sides Of the silk, about
five-eighths inch from the end, and
work 1t out in steel beads. Cut a
piece Of cardboard 5h by 12h inches.
and a piece Of buckram 1914 by TN
inches. Insert both between the silk
and satin, fitting the cardboard in the
plain end of the silk. Turn In the
edges of the bag and sew neatly. Make
side gussets 2A by Az inches, two of
the silk and two Of the satin. Sew
each, piece Of silk to the lining, turn
inside out and seam across the mar
row end. Fold the plain end Of the

II is calculated that in many stores

third of the work of the delivery de-
partment absolute waste. Even con-

cent Of their merchandise returned.

state of affairs is improbable. both to
