In this frock the crepe is used for the long-walsted blouse, the flaring, bell-shaped slecve and for the narrow appliqued pan: which appears at one side of the skirt. The gray tricot fashions the high, upstanding collar, which may be buttoned or allowed to fall apart at the throat, and is used to border the sleeves and girdle the waist, while the entire skirt is also made of it. The costume is opened at the side front from shoulder to hem, and but- tons of gray tricot appears to fasten it, but in reality they are added merely for a touch of trimming, Another Paisley gown seen is cut In one plece and fastened at the shoulders. The blouse has short kimono sleeves, shirred at the upper edges and decorated with large black buttons. Four panels qf accordion- pleated black silk are suipended from the shoulders, two hanging in the back and two at the front, and, after passing under the sash girdle of black silk they extend to the hem of the gown. The black material is rather somber against the background of dull reds and greens of the Paisley, but at least it does not look like & gyPsy costume, although many of the so-called “smartest” frocks of today do. Somehow we wonder when fhe soft, silvery grays and restful Alice blues are coming in again, and hope they will return to favor soon. The evening gown illustrated is of brilllant nasturtium-colordd satin, trimmed with a trellis of nasturtium blooms. Half of the bodice is of satin, while the remaining part is of ®old lace mounted on white tulle, so that one might almost think that milady’s bodice had slipped off from one shoulder, exposing an elegaht camisole of fragile metal lace. The skirt is draped to one side so that the end falls in a spiral cascade whicl nearly touches the floor. The satin double-faced, and the ingide has a dull crepe surface of orchid, which is visible in the side drape and also in the opposite end of the skirt, where it meets the first at the back, there is no seam, and the gown rests upon a foundation skirt. The girdle is of pale lavender satin and bright green ribbon twisted caught in a double puff over one hip. The flower trellis 1s suspended from this to add the finishing touch to the creation.

McFadden, Patersan, Patrickson, MacPhater, The family name of Patterson is one | to which neither the English, the Irish nor the Scots can lay exclusive claim, for there are to be found evi- dences of its origin in all of these countries. There are, however, certain of its variations ‘which can be allocated definitely to one or another of these| countrles. The name of Patrickson is one of the least common forms of the name, but where it is found there is pretty good evidence of its English origln The given name of Patrick, or “Pad- ruig” and “Paruig.” as it occurs in Gaelic, with the addition of words meaning, “son of”, or ‘“descendants of,” is, of course, ‘the origin of the | family name. The Irish name MacPhaidin, derived from “Paidin.” which is one of the diminutive forms of Patrick. |and is found with us in the nickname “Paddy.” _ Patterson, Pattison, Mac- Fadden, Padden, Patten and Patton all occur as anglicized versions of the Irish name, Patterson, Paterson and Pattison also occur as straight English devel- opments of “Patrick’s-son.” Paterson and MacPatrick are names of branches of the Scottish Highland clan Maclaren. MacPhater and Mac- Feat are also found as the equivalents of these names in the Highlands. (Copyright.)

There was a panic In Old Orchard the afternoon after the night in which Wel- come Robin had been g such a dreadful fright by Black Pussy the Cat. | Terror the Goshawk was the cause of it. Terror is one of the flercest of all the Hawk family. His home is up Inorth, but often in winter he Is driven down from there by lack of food. He is one of those whom the little people of the Green Forest and the Green Meadows dread most in winter. Despite the ice which stiil clung to all the trees and made them look a if they were made of silver, the litt people who gathered in the Old Orchard had been very happy: Farmer Brown's Hoy had kept the food shelves there well | supplied with food, and there had_been plenty for evervbody.
