At least a half | dozen householders, who in ars gone | by never found it necessary to pro-: tect their homes other than by closing the shutters and locking the doors, discovered evidence of unsolicited tenants having been in residence through the winter. Mr. and M Albert R. Gallatin, the former t brother of Mr. ton, and the guest of the nwich during late June found that a few to against the chilly days tumn along the sound had be and ts dur- ppeared.

All the modish shops of vport and up the Maine coast advertise monocle makers and i the patrons frequently try on their| glasses several times before they are ! pronounced perfect. Of course, the firms have their agents in the smart set who suggest | tortoise shell or platinum, according | jto the face coloring of the purchaser. Some natty monocles are set in plati- i for those who: and it is chroni that White wears such one habitually. Of course, nearly every one has on 3 tronger than the other. Hence | the use of the single glass by those | who do not wear glasses all the time Some ladies, who do not succeed in keeping the monocle in place, wear one on a ribbon the exact color of l\\r‘i rim and in general harmony their complexion and hirsute adorn- | ments. Mrs. Raymond Baker has been wearing a monocle suspended by a ribbon of the rainbow colors and it looks quite fetching. —_— TUSKEGEE ISSUE UP. question of control of Veterans' Bureau Hospital at Tus- | kegee was discussed yesterday by a committee of three, representing ithe white citizens of Tuskegee and Director Hines of the Veterans' Bu- ! {reau, who indicated that an agree- | ment was near. “I proposed a plan to the commit- " “said Dire Hines. “which i i ¢ all parties. indicated that it | favorably disposed toward the pl: ‘bul that it wished to take it ba The the to Tuskegee and to discuss it the both with citizens.” | Details of his proposition were not revealed by Director Hines. e e WILL SERVE AS BELLBOY.
