Mrs. Abbott pursed her lips tightly.
She looked around her neat kitchen.
I'm wondering how long it'll stay
this way after those city toughs get
here" she said.
Mr.. Abbott, who was getting ready
to go to the station, smiled patiently.
"Oh, you'll get used to EN-" he said.
Honest, / never thought you'd fuss
when | told Mr.. Phillips I'd take d
couple of those boys from the city
tenements for two weeks in the real
country"

his wife.
The two boys We're nearly as bad
as she feared, but she bore 1t as we'll
as she could, and they were so eager
about everything that they did not
notice her GOODNESS. They only knew
that she cooked the best things they
had ever eaten. But Mrs. Abbott saw
that her husband knew how they
tracked up the house. used bad words
sometimes. spilled things on the table

The climax came one day when she
was going TO town to shop. She left
her pocketbook on the kitchen table
while she ran upstairs for something,
and when she came back it was gone.
She told her husband, grimly, and he
told the boys, in an offhand manner.

with pearls among the new orna-
ments--an effect that is really charm
ing.
All the precious c0lored stones are
displayed more now than was the case
a few months ago when for a time
women seemed to feel that pearls or
diamonds or more or less good imita-
tons of the two colorless gems were
valued to the exclusion of rubies, sap
phires and emeralds. topazes. garnets,
amethysts and the long list of stones
that were worn by our mothers and
era ndmOthers. MulticolOred iawelry
is becoming popular again and women
who have fine rubies, sapphires and
emeralds in their collections are hav-
ing them reset to suit present-day
taste--or. II the settings are old
enough really to be antique, wearing
them as they are.
Snakeskin and even pony skin
jewelry has made its appearances
patch Of the skin barely larger than
your thumb nail, set in rhinestones
and silver that you may pretend are
diamonds and platinum or white gold.
A passing fad. no doubt. but neverthe-
less smart and. as the French woman
would think. most amusing!
There is really nothing very new
about this notion of uniting products
of the animal kingdom with those of
the mineral kingdom III the making
of jewelry. You may recall watch
charms of tigers teeth set in gold
even bears claws once worn with
pride by men who had hunted big
game. Braided elephants hair jewelry
is even now worn for good luck-and
rabbits paws to ward off the evil eye.

the form of various birds and beasts,
not 10 mention snakes and fishes-so
popular now-might lead to the sus-
picion that we still. subconsciously
but none the less truly, cling TO the
age-old belief in animal charms.
Narrow leather slipper straps fin
ished in gold or silver and studded
with rhinestones or colored stones are
among the pieces of jewelry that ap.
peal to some women. And since orna.
mented slipper buckles are not much
worn nowadays the jewellers no doubt
rejoice in this new fashion.
From Paris comes word that among
smart women the colorless pearl and
the pearl that is small or of moderate
size are worn to the exclusion of the
larger sort and those OF pink. orchid
and other tints. On the other hand.
jewelers. there as well as here continue
to sell quantities Of pearls of all sizes.
and the demand for light pink pearls
has, according to one jeWeler, never
been so great.
A number of the so-called semi
precious stones. such as carnelian.
jade, onyx. lapis laZuli, chalcedony
and rose quartz. are chosen for jew.
elry of the less formal sorts.
l must add a bit Of correction. /
have said somewhere above that one
no longer saw fingers crowded with
rings and that we'll dressed women
loaded their arms with bracelets. but
wore rings with great discretion
something of that sort. And / have
just been informed on the best of au-
thority that number of French
actresses are wearing quantities OF
rings. Ten rings on one little finger
Is considered quite effective.

Spiral Formations.

We have all noticed climbing plants
which attach themselves for support
to trees and other things stronger
than themselves. Without the oppor-
tunity to elevate themselves by cling
ing. the flowers of these vines would
not be displayed to the bee and the
seeds to birds and wind, but they
would have to mingle with the plant
covered surface of the ground.
The tendency Of plants is to form
spirals. Not all, however, coil or
twist. The Virginia creeper attaches
itself by means Of adhesive disks,
while the gourd and grape use ten
drills.
or those that form spirais a great
popularity is noticed in the direction
of twisting, some turning to the right.
others to the left. The garden bean
asCends toward the right, while the
hop vine as consistently turns to the
left. The honeysuckle and yam like.
wise take the left direction. Nearly
all morning glories twist to the right,
yet there is one that turns to the left,
showing the general tendency of all
species of a family to so the same
way, but with exceptions.
Often trees have a twisting grain.
Wood grain turns to the right or left
but rarely shows a decided consistency.
Chestnuts, beeches and the red ma
pies have a tendency to turn toward
the left, while the sorrelwood turns
to the right.
The only theory of this curious
turning is that some plants are at
tracted to the sun, and thus their tip
grows leftward toward 1t. Other
plants, which have a tendency to re-
cede from the sun turn to the right.

~ UMMER jewelry for Summer

new. Simple and sensible

seems TO have occurred to jewell

ornaments specialized for Summer re-

1t must be light in weight, this
Summer jeWelry. 1t must also be
light in ppearance--nothing really
ponderous or bulky about it. 1t must

it must be in coiors chosen to har-

concern over the safety of your dla-

have lots of them.
Some Summer jewelry is distinctly
of the sports type, for women may
now wear certain ornaments on the
golf course and tennis courts without
Inisgivings. Earrings even are really
quite appropriate to the rather severe
sport costume, your or my prejudice
notwithstanding.
