All that glitters is not gold or there wouldn't be enough glitter to go round this season. An army of things that sparkle and gleam has invaded the realm of Jashion and is established ev- erywhere—except on morning gowns. In company with fur bands and hand embroidery it came and saw and con- quered, and now even boudoir gowns are lavishly ornamented with all three.

An in- sertion of silver is used in alternating long and short tabs that fall from the lace at the top of the camisole. The waist is bound with silver ribbon and there are shoulder straps made of it.

Beads and a fur of fabric, imitating broadtail, have been wonderfully well managed in ornamenting the lovely af- ternoon gown pictured here. The clas- sic Greek robe might have inspired the fashioning of this model for it hangs in long lines from shoulder to hem. It is made of black georgette crepe with six bands of the broadtail fabric about the skirt. The long, narrow girdle is covered with beads and weighted with tassels at the ends. It encircles the waist, is crossed at the back and brought back to the front where one end is looped over the other, This unseen or waste any of its sweetness. It is distinctly intended to gleam through a mere mist of a blouse, or a veil of a waist.

Among the first class there are silk stockings with inlays of lace like those in the picture and others embroidered with steel beads. There are white panels (woven in colored hose) that serve for a background for fine embroidery. In the daring class spangies flourish.

The sleeve is especially graceful, fitting the arm at the shoulder and cradually widening to the waist. It is split on the outer side and Its edges are defined with two rows of beads. The graceful “V” neck is finished in the same way and has a set-in piece of white georgette at the point, which may be more or less high. Black and Steel beads are introduced in the em- broidered figures on the bodiee. Fine artistry is written in every detail of this gown.

G, Chapman.) A baby between the trenches! The troops had advanced by night under the searchlight; they had taken up a new position within a hundred yards of the enemy, on what had beet a farm. And at dawn they could all distinctly see the child sitting up in the lines of hole made by a ten-inch shell, one hand extended toward the ruined buildings. It was a raw and foggy morning, and presentiy, white the men still gaped, the mist came down and hid the child from sight. To show a head above the Sanudags ordinarily meant instant death. But now a dozen men leaped from the trenches and ran forward. There came a fusillade from the enemy, and half of them fell dead in their tracks. The rest staggered on- ward, wounded, to collapse one by one. Only one man reached the edge of the crater before he collapsed, shot through | the heart. The fog lifted. By a miracle the child had escaped injury. She was still seated there in the shell-hole. From the opposing trenches a dozen : wling forward through res. Those of their opponents opposite them forbore to fire. But to the right and left were soldiers whe were ignorant of the situation. A fusillade rang out, and of the dozen men only three were left to work their way forward. “Cease firing!” came the order. 3ut it is hard to control a body of ‘roops that stretches away for un- 6 ve vi 33 4 3 fers Carrying in His Arms an Enormous Rag Doll. known miles on either side. A second volley, and not a man remained to res- cue or to fly. The child was still uninjured, The bullets had passed over her head, and none had struck her. Both sides, each distrusting the other, waited till night- fall. All through the afternoon, at in- tervals, the baby could be seen, when the fog lifted. Each side formed a yol- unteer party of half a dozen to make the rescue after night had fallen, The two parties started simultane- ously, crawling through their barbed |wire and working their way across No Man’s Land. They met in the middle. There was no chance for explanations, The rifles spoke, the bayonets did their quick work. Star shells, shot up, re- vealed the twelve in deadly grapple. Buoyed up by the sense of their mis- sion, neither side would yield. They fought each other to death there, in that desolate waste of water-filled craters. Not one man returned. On either side the soldiers waited in increasing apprehension until morning showed the heap of bodies around the crater. Within it the child could still be seen. She had fallen forward on Junction of the two arnues. Un the opposite side of No Man's Land the Germans had put up a notice to the same effect in their own language. They quickly exchanged it for an- other, “When?” they asked. “At twelve o'clock,” answered the English. } It meant an hour to walt. All the | eyes were strained upon the baby.

Showers of shells broke upon the opposite trenches, The arti/lery of the Germans answered, And since nothing was known at the rear about the child, and because its life or death was a small matter in the general run, the attempt was abandoned, All that day the soldiers on either side crouched in thelr trenches and waited for the artillery to cease. A general attack had been ordered for | six o'clock on the Franco-British front. There were few now who cherished | any hope of saving the baby’s life. Yet none of the shells had fallen near the j crater, and the little body was still visible there, At six o'clock the British artillery suddenly ceused. The men leaped from their trenches and ran forward, cheering. But to their survrise their opponents did not wait for them but ran forward also, perhaps inspired by the same mo- The two parties met on a half- front.

It was not until the combat had been | thinned out by the loss of thousands that the two lines of enemies sullenly witidrew and made for their respective trenches. But there were those on | either side who remembered, And, moved by a simultaneous im- pulse, six men from either of the con- flicting armies rushed toward the shell crater. Tacitly they ig ed each ‘other, A big Scotchman leaped into the hole and emerged, carrying in his urms an enormous rag doll, with a painted face of bisque. | It was ridWed with bullet holes, and jhad evidently been abandoned by the former owners. Perhaps the very child whose plaything it had been had long ago grown tired of it. Yet it was strangely human in ap- pearance, and the head, with the gold- en curls, drooped forward like that of a tired child sleeping. There was a stunned silence on either side. With no thought of fight- ing, the men intermingled and clus- tered about the figure. How many thousands had died for this rag doll! It was grotesque and pit Jul. The Scotchman laid the doll down in the crater and flung a little earth over it with his fcct. He looked up at the faces of the enemy. “It's for a trifle like this that good men’s lives have been flung away!” he said bitterly. There was silence, till a young stu- dent answered him. “Are we any wiser?” quietly. The other appeared as if about to answer him; but instead he turned his back, and, calling his men, marched them back toward the trenches, under the muttering of the guns. he asked Sunflower Secrets, Varying from gold to pale yellow, the | handsome sunflower stands merely for decorative purposes in .our British | homes, says London Answers.
