More Mystery-N1rs. Ticer Discovers That Her Pass-Key to The Larch- eS Has Been Stolen!

That Her Pass-Key to The Larch- es Has Been Stolen!
 My mother-in-law, though a mar tinet in her family, and, as Dickv expresses it, "a wizard in getting her own way" is quick to yield a point gracefully when she faces the tradi tional stone wall. The fact that Mrs. Ticer was so ingenuously obtuse to her wish to go along with me to The I.arches made it impossible for Mother Graham to insist upon the point without hurting our neighbours feelings, something which none of us would willingly do. So when Mrs. Ticer said that she had plenty Of time and would love to go with us my mother-in-law smiled graciously at her.
 That will be very nice of you. Mrs. Ticer," she said. But let us hurry Mrs Pickett has to take that afternoon train to the city and my daughter-in-law must have consulta- tion with her, before she goes, about her son."
 A queen of an older era pointing out the duties of her chief ladyin- waiting could not have been more majestic. I bit my lips to keep back a smile which would have been fatal to the peace of the day and was grateful to Mrs. Ticer for her quick answer which effectively kept Mother Graham's attention riveted upon her and away from me.
 I'm all ready except rutting on my cloak and hat" my neighbor said "and they're right nere. But l wish you had time to look at my fuchsia before you go."
 Mother Graham stiffencG into at tcntion.
 How many buds has it?" she de- handed
 I held my breath to hear the an sWer. My mother-in -laT. obvious to our errand and her impatience concerning it, was stalking toward the window, filled with blooming house plants, and Mrs. Ticer was pattering after her.
 T don't rightly know" my neigh bor hesitatcd. T haven't counted them lately"
 My mother-in- law snorted
 You can't take much interest in it.. she said. Now I know every bud and blossom on mine There were thirty buds and twenty n,2 blossoms on it last night when I counted"
 E'uChSia Blossoms
 From my vantage point behind them 1 saw my neighbours face light up for an instant as she shot a triumphant little glance toward the plant Then the triumph glance gave way to kindly craftiness.
 You've got me beat, then" she said. 'Whcn l last counted, quite a while ago, I had fifty-thrce buds and blossoms, and I'm sure there haven't any more come on since"
 She was fibbing. ] saw that at once - fibbing graceful and heroi- cally-for I knew how much inno- cent pride was hers in hor skill witt flowers-that an old woman might preserve an illusion undisturbed. My

New York, Oct. 30.-That two black-long strip of 57th street be- tween Madison and Sixth avenue is becoming New Iork's rue de la paiN the de luxe shopping center. In fifteen years New Yorl's exclusive shopping area has jumped from 34th to 57th. Real estate men say in 10 more years it will be near S0th street.
 While Fifth and Madison avenues are smart they haven't that distinct communal cfflorcscence encompass ed on 57th. It was recently broad encd and pulses with artistic crea- tions in millinery, jewelry settings, frocks, etc. Sidewalks have been widened and there is the soft rustic of IIispanos and Rolls.
 Tho ballooning of an obscure street into a sudden sWalIkiness IS usually the caprice of sonc freaklsn fortune. Fifty-seventh street twenty years ago was lined with sombre brown stone fronts. Prices of real eS- tate had sagged and there were no buyers.
 only one home owner there seem cd to sense the northward business sweep, then at 34th street, would come that far He bought strips of dccaying houses on both sides Of the street on each block and starte ] q further depression of values by renting basemcnts to cheap john stores and first floors to table ! d'hotes.
 It was a shrcwd move. Frightened realty owners decided to be rid of their property at a sacriiice and he bou.ht them. Then he got rid Of the riff raff tradcsmon to whom he had granted only short leases, and in IS 1 years is said to have nctiHd protlt | of more than fourteen millions. 1 There are many groups of real | estate speculators, backed by high powered organizations, who are said | to be able to dcpresS and increase estate values in given ncighhor- hood by manipulation. 1t generally requires two years, but sometimes il
 is done in six months.

EVERY DAY WONDERS By Alice. Judson Peale

We who not many weeks ago be- held sailing so nasically over our heads, the great silver dirigible which had crossed the Atlantic, we're thrilled by an experience whose beauty struck us with the impact of the new and the marvel ous. The most stogy and world weary Of us gazed upward with the reflection of wonder on our faces. With most of us it takes a sight at least as extraordinary as this to make us cry the "oh" and "ah" Of fresh delight.
 The dullness and boredom of the average adult makes him a sorry compa nion for the young soul to whom the whole world should be fresh. curious. wonderful. We go walking with orr child and all about us are sights and sounds that We no longer see or hear. The tra:- fic roars. the workmen are engaged in some vaguely dirty and unpleas- ant work. trucks are being loaded and unloadcd. and the store wins dows show their too familiar wares.
 We have seen these things al- ways and have forgotten that once we wondered about them and were fascinated by their whereto and wherefrom.
 If we would be good companions for our children We must try 10 re- gard these familiar sights with their eager unspoiled eyes. We. too. must stand still and observe the traffic policeman command the tides Of traffic, see the signals flash and watch the cars obey.
 We must see that the laborcrs are not just laboring. hut are digging a vast hole. managing derrick which looks like mighty dinosaur. load ing trucks of dirt and taking them away.
 We must wonder why they are digging. and what makes the der rick go and where the trucks are taking their loads Of dirt
 We may stand outside the gro- cery store window and speculate as to where those dates came from, md in what country that bunch Of bananas grew so big and yellow.

'VARIEGAITEDfORMS
 FOR SPRING SUITS
T,ilored TVeed Ensemble Popa- lar But Materials Differ Widely

Paris, Feb. 75 R@Materials and forms of spring suits will Do widely varied. Tailored tweed ensembles
 of last season will continue to be
 worn.
 More elaborate versions of the suit form are also being shown. ranging from satin two piece to printed crepe de chino two and three piece costumes.
 Tweed suits are partial to brown and white and blue and white mix lures. The newest of them have tuck-in, or stimulated tuck-in
 blouses of white crepe de chine or natural silks like shantung and tussore.
 Sometimes the blouses are sleeve
 less. Most of them have some form
 of collar, with the round turnover. which fits the base of the neck
 closely. favored above others. Piuuet vests and collars and cuffs are shown by many designers both
 for wear on suits and tailored
 dresses of light or dark colors. Afternoon suits, which include the satin and printed crepe de chine models favor black and wl.ite combinations.
 Jackets of such suits are short and usually of cardigan form over
 one piece dresses, which may simu- late skirt and tuck-in blouse.
 Printed designs are small and tend toward the Japanese.
 Long coats over afternoon dresses
 are the formal ensemble favored by many stylemakers. but they
 carry out the suit idea almost as meticulously as the short jacketed
 costumes. Some of the newest en- semble coats have elaborate ap- pliques of broadcIoth on chiffon
 base. The broadcloth pattern is 50
 carefully carried out that chiffon
 underneath shows like delicate in- crustations no wider than an eighth
 of an inch.
 Suit colorings are varied. running
 the gamut of yellows, light reds
 and greens through blues. blacks
 and browns. Silk suits nearly al-
 ways appear in black or dark Blue. although one or two important de-
 signers show vivid purple ensem-
 bles for formal afternoon wear.
