WOMAN’S PAGE,'! . Silver, Lace and Fur for Wraps l BY ANNE RITTENHOUSE. Some one once described ‘the mid- Victorfan lady's {dea of outdoors as the space that had to be passed through in getting from one place to another. It had distinct disadvantages. Inthe winter it roughened one's skin and made one's nose red and .in summer it tanned one's skin and made freckles if one were fair. There weroe notable exceptions, of course, to this attitude; but there were very few &kceptions to the prevailing idea that a wrap was something to be Worn merely as wu covering to one's dress. It was judged by the sgme standards that apply to slip covers for the drawing room furniture— quite satisfactory if they conform to the silhouetye beneath. For your amusement glance ) magazines of your grandmother's day, and note the prevailing severity af all outdoor wraps So far have we departed from that point of view that for some occasions women select evening frocks of the utmost simplicity so as to reveal more distinctly the elaboration of the wrap. There are fur wraps of ermine or chinchilla_especially for summer, and ‘one’ speaks of these with a ceftain sort of respect at least—for they are amazingly expensive. Then there are the wraps of fabric trimmed with fur. Amber-colored velvet bordered with white fox makes a wrap that can be worn successfully with many evening gowns. An evening wrap of steel-colored silver tissue lined with brilliant green was made to wear with a frock of the same shade of green—and inci- dentally has attracted more attention than the gown over which it is worn A cape that might be worn for afternoon as well as evening'is of gravel crepe—the new yellowish gray —draped from meck to hip length in black lace. Four loops of very wide velvet ribbon form a ruff collar at the back with gold roses where they are caught at the collar line, and one streamer of the black velvet ribbon bearing a_gold rose hangs down the back to the hem line. Black lace is worn lavishly—and would have heen even If the queen of Ingland had not recently spon- €ored the use of Nottingham lace for gowns made (o wear at the Ascot races.

We have six species resident in this vicinity, only two of which are harmful; the others are among the farmers’ best friends. The shooting of a good hawk always re- sults in a distinct loss to the farmer of such products as are destroyed by fleld mice, rats and rabbits. In some agricultural districts, where there has been fgnorant and indiscriminate shooting of all hawks. there has fre- quently followed a field-mouse plague, which has done incalculable damage. It is not so diffioult as one might suppose to distinguish between in- jurious hawks and those that are beneficlal. The two harmful species, Cooper's and the Sharp-shinned, have long tails and slender bodies; while the good hawks, the red-shouldered, red-tailed, broadwinged and sparrow hawk—are rather stocky, with short tails. The different habits of the two kinds are even more distinguishing than. their appearance. The poultry hawk conceals himself in a clump of evergreen or dense shrubbery near farm buildings, from which he darts out among the poultry, seizes a chick- on and is off, perhaps without being seen or heard. Chicken hawks seldom soar in the open as do the mouse-hunting hawks, Usetul species often suffer for the sins of the chicken thieves, for if a farmer BEDTIME STORIES The Bears Scare Peter Rab- bit. Alab, how many make the error Of finding fun in givingk terror! —Peter Rabbit. The three little Bears felt quite put out over having been so badly tooled by Mrs. Grouse, and they wanted to keep on hunting for the baby Grouse. It wasn't 80 much that they wanted to catch those bables to eat as It was that they wanted to get even with Mrs. Grouse. Mother Bear had said that it would be use- less to hunt for them, but probably the three little Bears would have hunted had not one of them caught sight of Peter Rabbit. That put all thought of the baby Grouse out of their heads. Peter had been sitting all the time close to a hole under a Rig old stump, and had seen the whole performance. It had tickled him greatly to see how clevetly 'Mrs. Grouse had fooled those three little Bears. How Peter did _admire Mrs. '‘Grouse for her smartness! But even more he had admired her for her bravery. You know it took real bravery to flutter along the ground just barely out of reach of those eager little Bears. Peter always had admired Mrs. Grouse, but never as much a8 he now dia. It was Littlest Bear who spled Peter, and with a squeal she started for him. Of course, the other two little Bears were at her heels. instant he saw that he was dis- covered, Peter dived down into that hole. He felt ‘quite safe there. He knew that that hole was too small for even Littlest Bear to crawl in after him. He really wasn't scared a bit when he dived into that hole. But in_a moment or two he heard sounds that first made him nervous and then scared him. Thosé three little Bears were "starting to dig him out. Yes, sir; that is just what they wers doing. ~And they were having great fun doing_it. Had there been ust one little Bear, Peter wouldn’t ave been much worried.

Dr. | Fisher writes: “Its presence and in- | crease should be encouraged in every | way possible, not only by protecting |it by law, but by disseminating a knowledge' of the benefits it confers. /1t is probably the most aetive and determined foe of meadow mice and ground squirrels, destroying greater numbers of these pests than any other species, and this fact alone should entitle it to protection, even If it de- stroyed no other injurios animals.” The nest is on the ground in marshes. Eggs, four to six, are dull white, unmarked. - (Copyright, L. W. Maynard.) By Thornton ‘W. Burgess. that little Bears, or big ones, too, for that matter, seldom stick to one thing very longz at a time. They soon grow tired and lose interest. But three made a different matter of it altogether. When one got tired, another began digging. Peter began to worry. Yes, air; he began to wotry. He grew more and more scared. ~After a while he heard two | or three loud sniffs, and then the sound of big claws at work. Mother Bear had arrived and begun diggin Peter shook all over: He crawled far down in that hole as he IT _WAS LITTLEST BEAR WHO SPIED PETER.

They were very much excited. To them it was all great fun. They didn’t onte think of how Peter must be feeling, though it wouldn't have made any difterence to them if they had thought of it. To them it was all a kind of a game. When.Mother Bear began to dig, the®three little Bears danced about, and got in the way, and were as excited as three small people could be. They didn't doubt for a minute that now they would catch Peter Rabbit. (Copyright, 1923, by T. W.

" Be Careful What You Wash Your Hair With Wistory of Pour Name. BY PHILIP FRANCIS NOWLAN, BINNEY VARIATIONS~BIinnle, zle. RACIAL OR1GIN=—Irish. . SOURCE—A miokname. | This family name, though widely known through the fame of a film actress, is not one commonly met with in this country, and as there is nothing about its modernized form to reveal it as such. it is not commonly known that 1t is of Irish origin. It is, however, but an Anglicized version of the name of that anclent Irish clan known as the “Cineal m’Binnigh,” the word “cineal” being one of the ancient synonyms for the “mac” and the “O” in the formation of clan names. ‘This olan derives its orlgin from the still more anclent clan of the O'Nellls, who dominated Ulster and furnished so many of the high kings during the period from about 1700 B. C. to the thirteenth century A. D., in which Ireland’'s kings were united under the sway of & single high king, or as we would probably call him to- day, an emperor. The sociml and po- litical structure of this ancient Irish state, however, resembled a republic more than an empire; a republic with certain lines of heredity in rujership, and with the clan rather than the individual as the political unit. “Eachach Binneach,” the chieftain who founded the Clan Binney, was a son of Eoghan O'Nell, the eighty- eighth chleftain of the latter clan. The “Binneach” in his name was a nickname, meaning ‘“‘melodiout and, rather contrary to the rule, it was trom this rather than his given name that the clan he founded was known.
