HOW 1T STARTED
By JEAN NEWTON.
"Hair's Breadth. :"

A hairs breadth Is the minimum of
narrowness. We have never measured
a hair, of course. Though we use the
expression hairs breath" con-
stantly, we are not interested in the
hairs literal measurement. The
phrase serves our purpose. because
everybody Is familiar with its flgura-
tive Significance Of lust the least
Bit" 1.-The very slightest amount"
whether 1t be Of space or OF distance
or of time!
Short and snappy as it Is. the phrase
is not child of modern times. On
the contrary, it Ia OF quite ancient
origin, its recorded usage being traced
Aurelius. In his famous Media
TONS" lilo, we find: Remember
that mans life lies all within this
present as 'twere but a hairs
breadth of time Again. in 1111:4S.
he says: 80, for the hairs breadth
of time assigned to thee, live ration
ally. and part with life cheerfully, as
drops the ripe olive. extolling the sea-
son that bore 1t and the tree that ma
tured it,
The expression came down through
the centuries in literature and in
speech. Shakespeare put the stamp
of approval on 1t in the broad figura-
tive sense in which II has come down
to us by his we'll known use Of 1t in
act |, scene 3. of Othello. when the
Moor. testifying before the Duke how
he had recOunted his adventures to
Desdemona and her father, says:

OF moving accidents by food and field.

nent deadly breach"

Howe Puzzles Congress.

PHILADELPHIA September 3,
l776.--Just as though Congress did
not have things enough to think about
already with the critical military sit
uation to deal with as well as the
framing of Articles Of Confederation
for the Nation, along comes Gen. John
Sullivan of the American Army with
puzzle in statecraft as gift from
Lord Richard Howe. who claims to
he sojourning in America as peace
commissioner from the King of Great
Britain.
Gen. Sullivan was taken prisoner
in the battle of Long Island. Lord
Howe now sends him to Congress to
negotiate for his own exchange and
| that of Gen. William Alexander u-ord
! Stirling), who was also captured at
! Long Island. SO far. so good That
ca:1 easily be arranged. But, besides
that, Gen. Sullivan brings along a
proposition from Lord Howe to the
effect that he. Howe. has full powers
with his brother. Gen. William Howe
to compromise the dispute between
Great Britain and America on TERMS
advantageous to both: but that he
cannot recognize Congress as a le-
gally constituted body, since that
would be the same thing as recogniZ,
ing the independence of the United
States, and that, therefore, he wishes
to confer with some of its members
az private individuals. The PROPOSE
ton comes by word of mouth only.
sullivan says that Hows says that
the King says that the King is willing
to make many important concessions
to America, such as setting aside acts
of Parliament for taxing America;
also that if conference should reach
an agreement, the authority of Con-
greSS could be recognized later. Also

she was so very pretty, and instead OF
directing her to the room she con-

Betty entered the room first, but
the visitor swept past her. Jimmy,

Betty took the box and had turned
to leave the room, when James spoke.
Just a moment, Miss AmeS. Alice,

she did more than any one else to
pull me through. Miss Ames, Miss

The two girls bowed. and James

While you have a fever. they pet and

convalesce everything is different.
Miss Ames spends most of her time
out of the room and it makes me
nervous. There are too many good
looking internes around this place"
Miss Griffith laughed. perhaps be-
cause it was expected of her. for ii
sounded rather forced. But Betty's
laugh rang out genuinely, and as she
went in search of a vase to hold the
flowers she felt that the victory had
been hers. He had felt the patronage
i'm Miss Griffith's manner and had re-
scented it. Not that it meant anything,
and yet since she had been avoiding
him he had seemed eager TO talk to
her. Not only that, but when visitors
were present his eyes kept wandering
toward her if she happened to be in
the room. Suppose he did care.

CHAPTER Y.
Alice Griffith.

| After he had passed the crisis James
Cornell began to improve with a
ra pidity that was startling. On the
second day he was grumbling because
he was limited to liquid foods.
Like an old woman with one foot
in the grave he said, compla1ningiy
to Miss Anderson, who only smiled and
continued to feed him his broth. 1t
was this eternal placidity of Miss An
dersons that made him complain to
DR.. Roberts, and after some talk on
the subject, Betty was transferred to
daytime duty, while Miss Anderson
was to come at night for the short
time that the patient would need her.
Up to the time of the crisis, although
box after box of flowers had arrived,
most of them had been banned from
the sickroom. But now the place
bloomed like dollhouse. and Betty
| was always going in search OF vases.
Visitors began to appear, too, and by
the time James Cornell was sitting
up he was seeing several people each
day.
Since she had discovered her true
feelings toward her patient, Betty's at
titude had been guarded and demure.
She carefully avoided any personal
conversation with him, and it was
easy to do this. because visitors kept
interruptine. Then, too. it was always
possible to invent excuses to leave the
room. and it wasn't until the fourth
day after the crisis that anything of
personal nature happened between
them.
Betty had carried the lunch tray to
the diet kitchen and was on her way
back when girl came along the cor
ridor. She was muffied in d gray
squirrel coat and from under her small
gray hat curls of bright gold escaped
distractingly.
I'm looking for 207." she said in
a high. sweet voice and in Il manner
that was decidedly patronizing. Betty
had learned not to writhe under pat
ronage. In fact. it always amused her
because so many people seemed to feel

Interest in Hight ollared Frocks
by MARY MARSHALL.

more comfortable fashion we would
have to act independently.
Even this Summer many Americans
in Paris expected to find the high col
lar quite generally worn there. AS a
matter of fact, it was not. Some
women there wore high collared
houses under their suit jackets. but
certainly no more of them than here.
There is pretty good evidence now
that women in France are just as
willing and eager to keep fashions
comfortable and Wearable as we are
here.
Jenny. it. seems, has shown more
high. frocks than, the other
dressmakers recently, and Jenny, of
course. is considered ever and always
truly Partisan. But often what we
call a high neckline now would not
have been considered high at all in
the days when really high collars
were worn. Quite frequently ii is a
soft. rundown collar that rests high
er at the back than in front. Some
times it does not quite meet in front,
being fastened by means of a sort
of link constructed of two buttons
joined by silk thread loop between.
However, there are still some high,
buttoned collars among the new
Autumn clothes--these for the women
who really like them. and not at all
for the women who prefer the bare
neck.
The sketch shows a high-necked
frock that really is high-necked. But
IT was certainly not de signed with
any idea of setting the general fash
ion away from the low necklines. but
only as contrast to the general
trend of present-day clothes.
