 Petticoats that peep out from under the hens of taffeta dresses are a recognized spring style Some are of gold or silver lace. Ruffled taffeta pettieoats of con- trasting shades are another form.

No street car bells or taxi hoots seemed to disturb the bird. which doeiiely obeyed tho guiding rains held by his owner an Italian who runs an ostrich farm in Sardinia.

 That was all; but it was as if he had placed thumb to his nose and wagsied his fingers al the whole of France. For, as the press points out. Dr. Bougrat was one Of the strangest and most daring criminals in the annals of the French police.
