A REAL GENTLEMAN

WTHEN the news of Lewis death
spread over the town in which
lived there was universal sorrow, for
everyone had known Lewis. His fun,
eral was one of the most touching and
impressive that l have ever attended
He was Jew who had not been
particularly interested in religion as
such, and yet every clergyman in town
was there to do his memory honor
Presbyterian, Catholic, Episcopalian
and Unitarian sat side by side. He
came from very humble stock, had
had very little education, and had
gone into the business, which before
his death he had become owner of, a
very poor and a very uninfuential
man, yet every aristocrat in town who
prided himself upon his blue blood and
his high-bOrn ancestors was proud to
call Lewis his friend.
He had become one of the richest
men in town and had built for himself
a beautiful house which stood out
among the houses of taste and ele-
gance, but the poor of the city focked
to his funeral and knew that they were
welcome re-scrubwomen and ne
groes and the people who lived along
the railroad track, and tie respect
able working people of town, all of
whom could call him their friend
There were children there, too. with
tears in their eyes and flowers in their
hands, who listened with responsive
memories as the rabbi told of the vir-
tues and kindnesses of the dead man.
The explanation of it all was that
Lewis was real gentleman in spite
of his humble birth and his limited
education and the horny hands with
which he had worked in his early
youth.
He had respect for women. Even
the humblest woman in town knew
that she could present her case to him
and be listened to with courtesy and
attention.
He was kind to those less prosper
Gus and less fortunate than himself,
with = gentle, sympathetic considera-
ton that had in it no condescension.
He was clean and careful in his
speech, in his dress, and in his man
ners. When he gave his word, when
he recommended a product, the matter
was ended, for truth and honesty were
among his most sterling virtues. He
respected other mems feelings and
other mems opinions and other mems
religion, and when he was at fault he
was not too proud to acknowledge his
error no matter whom he had offended
servant or superior.
He was my idea of what a gentle
man should be.

MAKING PROMISES

IRVING had been in a rather nasty
4 mixup and was talking to me about
it. He'd been driving at a pretty high
rate of speed his fathers car loaded
with his intimate friends, he had been
arrested, and liquor had been found
in the car which he had admitted to
the officer they had all tasted at least,
though he held vigorously, as most
young fellows do, that no one was
within a thousand miles of intoxica-
ton.
l was familiar with this point of
view, for of all the young fellows
whom l have interviewed after an cpl
sode in which liquor has circulated, /
recall only one who frankly admitted
that he had been drunk. Even this
one might have attempted an alibi had
he not been completely unconscious
for some time.
81 don't think there's any danger of
my drinking again." Irving was say
ing to me, "but l don't want to make
any promises"
"Why?' l asked. 1 had not as yet
asked him to make any, but he was
forestslling any possible danger in
that direction.
"Well, don't believe in promises. /
don't intend to drink again, but if I
should be tempted to do so, l wouldn't
want to break my word"
81 see. You want to have a loose
board or a hole to get through, if you
should get into a corner"
mot exactly"
did you ever borrow money at
bank?" inquired.
mo"
"Supposing you wanted FIVE hun
dred dollars, and you said to the CASH
Ter, I'd like to borrow five hundred
dollars. l feel sure l shall pay it in
sixty days, but l don't care to make
any definite promises; / don't believe
in promises, ard if l should default on
the payment l shouldn't want to have
broken my word How much money
would you get?'
He looked foolish.
"You are in love with a girl, we will
imagine. You say to her, I'm quite
impressed with you. / think, in fact,
that shall bring myself to the point
of marrying you one of these days, but
l shouldn't like to make any promises.
l think you can depend on me, but l
prefer to be free to approach any
other girl who might appeal to me-
Shed be crazy about you, I'm sure"
II think I'd better say that l won't
drink any MORE" he admitted.
The man who hesitates to make a
promise is not completely sold to the
situation He lacks something of COM
plete conversion; he has not given up.
He's leaving a loophole through which
to crawl out If opportunity attracts.
Promises strengthen the will.

She determined to excel all previous

she prepared it and baked it in the
oven for 20 minutes, placed it on the

called hubby to the feast. The bird

Creation Of New Styles.

1t is interesting to see how by de-
grees a new style is created. How,
once the rightly of any mode is re-
layed, one feature after another is de-
veloped, often in something quite the
opposite of the original The uniform
ity which has characterized the fash
ions Of the past few years is being
varied in the up-to-date models in
many attractive ways. Relief from
monotOny is Always grateful, and
modistes are introducing panels, sec
tons, borders of one kind of dress
goods upon another, giving an en-
tirely new effect.
In many of the printed silks the
dominating color is used to edge the
plaitings and fiounces now so fash
iOnable. A Ferronier printed crepe in
beige and blue with a fine line of
scarlet running through the pattern

with the very latest mode of trim
ming. a plated founce, at the bottom.
On the hem of this is a narrow band
of navy blue silk. The slit neckline
with narrow rever has also a touch
of the dark blue in the tie ends, and
the same bit of color is used at the
wrisss Of the long plain sleeves.
similar scheme is illustrated in
another of these Brandt prints in the
mellow shades of brown and beige,
with the same fieck Of the handsom-
est designs. In this model from
nrominent Partisan couturier, thus
honoring an American industry, three
Matted ruffles of the figured goods
are added to the skirt, all the way
around. Each of these is finished
with two-inch band of brown gros-
grain ribbon, which is added to the
iabot on the bodice and to the bottom
of the long, semi-circular, fiaring
sleeves.
