returned to her birthplace, after trav-
cling several years ION the Continent
with mamma and papa-(at that time
. terrifically chic thing to do). She
was older than the rest of us by virtue
Of q few years and an infinite amount
Of poise, which made us all feel lumpy
and family resentful when in her pres
ence, At dancing school she was
always the belle Of the ball, TACT
for which we gave her no credit as
far as her dancing and charm vent
We seriously attributed her success 10
the width of her sashes and halr
ribbons. These exceeded our own by
at least two inches, and were always
Of the stiffest, increased taffeta imag-
Unable, Also, she was allowed to wear
long silk stockings, and slippers that
tied criss- cross about her slender ankles
with satin ribbons. This was the un-
kindest cut of all, as we we're usually
buttoned into white-topped black
patent leather boots, and were forced
to be content with ribbed white cotton
stockings. Accordingly, we clumpeo
our way through the mazes OF the
waltz, while our rival tripped lightly
about as If on wings.
TT MUST be confessed that all AMI
mostly fled with the arrival Of the
young lady's birthday party. In the
meantime. our hair had been tortured
with curriers', night after night, our
ribbons had been pressed, and our
white muslin dresses washed and
starched to the point where they could
stand alone. Those button boots were
carefully gone over to see that no
buttons were loose, they had been
vaselined as to the patent leather, and
pipe-clayed as to the tops. When we
finally arrived at the mansion-it was
the biggest house in town, of course,
and actually had a butler-we were
30 conscious of our clothes and our
appearances. that little else made an
impression On Us for the first few
minutes.
However, gradually outside details
began to penetrate our oyer-stuffed
minds, and by the time the Punch and
Judy show was over-it was the first
time most Of had seen one, and one
young lady aged 6 was so overcome
that she was retired, in q weeping
condition, to bed room, begging to be
saved from that horrible little man
we were in q far more receptive mood.
The dining room doors opened, and
we were ushcred upon scene OF
fairy beauty.

there was so much to see all at once.

tiny duplicate, for the fortunate guest
to take home. I remember mine was

let it stand on my bureau until dust and
weather had made it q sad and sticky
mess. Since that far-off day, the
sight of spun sugar flowers and
baskets in the big restaurants gives me
again the vision of that candle-lit
dining room, and a thrill Of recollec-

Naugatuck, Sept. 8-A good mem ory and quick thinking served Pa- trolman Wilfred Evon well early this morning and resulted in the arrest of three men, riding in an auto which is alleged to be the one in which Charles Ludlow, 26, of 26 Congress street, Hartford, was shot and critically wounded late yeseter- day afternoon in New Haven.
