time one stays in mourning Is matter
of personal inclination. A few elderly
widows wear mourning for life. But
since white is not very practical at all
times ard seasons. and long continued
black in the country ends by making a
conspicuous parade Of personal feelings
Zone thing that a thoroughbred in
stinctively shuns), best taste clings
rather closely to conventions in the
matter Of mourning.
Conventionally, a widow or a mother
wears deep mourning for year, Sec
ond mourning for another year. Less
than this is rather short. On the long
side, a year and a half OF deep mourn
ing and then a year and half Of
second mourning comes close to the
border Of extreme.
The mourning border on cards and
note paper measures from about one
fourth to three -sixteenths Of an inch
for deep mourning and from one-eighth
to one-siXteenth for light mourning.
The family of one who was a public
parsonage may properly send an en-
graved card acknowledgment to the
hundreds of acquaintances ard stran-
gers who left or sent cards of formal
coincidence. But under no circum-
stances is it proper that the family of

to know how futile and foolish such
quarrels are and how nothing ever is
to be gained from them. The truth Of
the matter is they enjoyed quarreling.
Some people are that way. And the
older the quarrel the more they enjoy
it. Old Mr.. Toad wouldn't have felt
that he had been to the Smiling Pool
If he hadn't seen Grandfather Frog
and had some words with him. And
Grandfather Frog would have felt that
/ the entire Summer had been spoiled
for him II he hadn't begun 1t by tell

Now secretly Old Mr.. Toad admired
Grandfather Frogs handsome green
coat and white-and-yellow waistcoat
and envied him the great leaps he
could take and the way he could swim,
but not for the world would he have
let Grandfather Frog know it. And
secretly Grandfather Frog envied Old
M. Toad, his travels out in the Great
World and the sweetness Of his Spring
song, but not for the world would he
have let Old Mr.. Toad know it.
So it was that this beautiful morn

ND Mr.. TOAD and Grand
father Frog are cousins. Both
were born in the Smiling Pool.
~ Both were tadpole5 there and
with others grew up through
the tadpole stage to little Toads and
Frogs. 1t was then that they parted
company. 1t was then that Old Mr..
Toad, q very tiny Toad then, SO tiny
that he could hide under the smallest
leaf, left the Smiling Pool and started
out to see the Great World. Thou
sands of other little Toads did the same
thing. In fact, there were no Toads
father Frog. when he became a little
Frog, but very much bigger than his
cousins, the tiny Toads, refused to 60.
SO did all the other little Frogs. They
said they had no desire to see the
Great World and that the Smiling Pool
was good enough for them.
The little Toads said that the little
Frogs were afraid, and the little Frogs
said the little Toads were silly crea-
lures and didn't know when they were
well OF. So began the quarrel be-
tween Old Mr.. Toad and Grandfather
Frog the Bullfrog. 1t was four years
before Old Mr.. Frog returned to the
Smiling Pool. BY that time Grand
gest Frog In the Smiling Pool. He
had the handsomest green coat and
white-and-yellow waistcoat, and he
had the deepest and loudest voice, and
he had the best opinion Of himself
among Frogs in the Smiling Pool.
When Old Mr.. Toad returned Grand
father Frog made fun Of him and pre-
tended to believe that he hadn't sue
ceeded out in the Great World and
had had to return to his old home in
the Smiling Pool. In vain Old Mr..
Toad protested that he had returned
that his children might be born in the
same place that he had been born, and
that the Great World was very Won
derful place for those smart enough to
make a place for themselves there
Then he slyly limited that those who
never went out into the Great World
knew nothing Of it and were afraid to
leave home. Thereupon Grandfather
Frog had lost his temper

of the smartest of the new coats. We

the directoire type, widely Tapped at
the waist with wide belt Of the
crash. Fastening the coat in wide
double breasted effect there Is q row
of three buttons, one at the right, one
at the left and one in the middle. On
the belt the same arrangement Of three
buttons appears, and just below the
belt another row Of three buttons, CIV
ing, in all, a square Of nine buttons.
Another new trick is to combine util-
ity and decoration by making detach-
able pique collars and cuffs with but
tonholes that are kept in position by
being fastened over buttons attached
to the dress The buttons give attrac-
tive trimming to the collars and cuffs,
and keep the detachable bits of pique
in position without further need for
sewing or pinning.
On the cuffs Of sleeves you will see
ornamental buttons used like old-time
cuff links. The sketch shows one of
the new dresses trimmed in this way
which may suggest to you clever way
of making use Of four good-looking
buttons slowed away somewhere In
your work basket or button box.

she signed the papers.
 Then Libby bowed again and moved out of the court room, back past the crepe rnyrtles, and into a heavily curtained car which roared away to Reidsville with her.
 At Reidsville she soon was in seclusion in her hotel. A nurse and a maid were with her and her father. In the evening he returned to Winston Salem saying he would take the first possible train to-day back to the Holman home in Cin- cinnati. There was a general be- lief that Libby would quietly join him on that train at some way station and she too, would go to Cincinnati, probably to the wait ing comfort of her sister. Mrs Myron Kahn.
 The day had been memorable one for Wentworth-a village con- sisting of a store, a deserted black smith shop, a postoffice, the coun- ty jail, the court house and maybe fifteen houses. Fully three hum dred automobiles brought people there to see Miss Holman face the court.
 An hour after Libby had gone, however, Wentworth had returned to it's usual quiet state and ne- gro boy was leading his COW up to the watering trough if front of the court house, as quietly as though nothing had happened.
 The less colorful aspects of the days proceedings were of much importance. The action of the prosecuting officials in announcing they had no evidence of first de- gree murder meant that unless something now unknown is devel- oped, Libby will not go on trial for her life. Imprisonment for life will be the worst penalty the law can exact on any lesser charge.
 The date for the trial remained uncertain, normally the case would come before a term of court here opening October 3. It seemed probably, however, that a special term might be called for early September at which Libby and Alb Walker would be tried.
 Walkers attorney attended yes- terday's court proceedings at Wentworth but took no part therein. Walker remained in Win ston Salem, visiting his usual haunts.
 The surrender to arrest and re- lease on bond of Miss Holman largely concluded the proceedings in the case until it is called for, trial.
