He was big and broad, and young and good to look at, Jimmie thought, and without a glance at the girl he said: “What do you want for the umbrella, kid?” “I don't know whedder it's fer sale or not,” Jimmie answered. ! “Here's a dollar.

A man may believe all a woman tells him and still be safe as long as | he refrains from believing the things | she doesn't tell him. New Portieres. Some good looking portieres are made of a fabric known as sun fast madras, a lacy openwork stuff. The manufacturers guarantee that this material will not fade. As for color- ing, this new material is shown in soft shades of brown, gold, rose, green and blue; also in two toned ef- fects and a very attractive combina- tion of rose, brown and green. A Practical Gift. Her club, composed of five members besides herself, each gave to the bride & beautiful flounce for a skirt. The upper part of the skirt was made of a plain material, and arranged so that the flounces could be buttoned on when a change was desired. il How Many Words Can You Make From AND FURNITURE AND HARDWARE COMPANY List Stands: H.
