ing as flattering can be. Some of
them have a way of turning up at
the back which is ever so new look
ing. Then again they mount sky

side takes a perilous dip downward
over the right eye. Even the new
sailors. and by the way, sailors are
tremendously good this spring, have
gone on a spree of lilts and tits
which gives them any amount of
chic.
As to the collection here pictured,
each model carries an Illuminating
message concerning current millin-

of Sheerest transparent velvet,
either in pastel, black or high colors,

finish to this modish cap-fitting

Double Purpose Served
in Odd Statue Designs

On a nobeman's estate in Silesia
there is a collection of some of the
most curious statues in the world.
The statues are carved in linden
wood and are slightly more than life
size. They comprise a considerable
number of figures, which include the
u Apostles, a few saints, peasant
women and even a figure represent

who is seen with his arm linked
through that of a soldier comrade.
All of the statues are hollow and
each one of them is a beehive, open

VANDAIS NOT SOLE
WRECKERS OF ROME

An unanticipated by-product of the
wholesale excavations undertaken in
Rome by order of Mussolini has been
to clear the barbarian invaders of
much of the stigma formerly at
tached to their name. AS a result of
the discoveries in the vicinity of
Trajan's forum, Corado Ricco, direc-
tor of excavations, has formulated
the conclusion that earthquakes, in

Indifference wrought far more de-

the barbarians.
One of the latest discoveries is

like trees bent by a strong wind.
Their destruction was not due to hui

PET MARJORIE

GD EFT MARJORIE" Sir Walter
Scott called her, little Mar.
jorie Fleming who lived near him in
Edinburgh, whose whimsical person
ality and astonishing literary career
begun when she was six and ended
by her death just before she was
nine, won her unusual friends in
her day and "a peculiar sort of fame
ever since. A statue of Pet Mar
jorie was set up just last year in
her birthplace, Kircaldy, Scotland,
and she is mentioned IN the Diction-
airy of National Biography as one
whose life is probably the shortest
to be recorded in these volumes, yet
one of the most charming charac-
ters."
Marjorie Fleming was born In
1903. When she was just turning
six the family moved to Edinburgh
and Marjorie took up writing and
commenced her famous friendship
with Scott. Part of the Waverly
novels were written with Pet Mar
jorie on the authors knee. Some
times she would amuse him by recit-
ing long passages from Shakespeare;
at others they would tramp together
across the fields while Scott's dog
Mazda scampered joyOusly about
them.
Marjorie has left us a number of
letters recording her childish OBJ
servations and philosophy, an epic
in verse concerning Mary Queen Of
Scots, whose royalty she upheld
even while she condemned her
morals, and a journal written be-
tween the ages of six and eight con-
tanning more observations on life
and a number of poems, all of them
recently republished for the modern
reader. Pet Marjorie died Of
measles in 1911.

REBECCA

Scott to Washington Irving in the
letter accompanying his gift of one

of the most distinguished social
groups of the post-RevOlutionary pc

man of another faith than her own,
she made a costly decision in favor
of her family's religion, and devoted
her life thereafter to philanthropy
and deeds of goodness that doubly
endeared her TO all who knew her.
Thus, it was in the arms of Re
becca Gratz that died Matilda Hoff-
