One bright spring morning in 1893 something of a furore was created among the passengers on the little | river steamer that plied between Nor- { folk and Richmond when they learned the identity of three distinguished | personages aboard. They were trav- i eling incog., but some one recognized | them as the count of Paris, his son, | the duke of Orleans, and his nephew, Prince Henry of Orleans. The elder had come over to revisit | battlefields along and near James ' river, where he had figured in 1862, | when on the staff, with his brother, | of General McClellan of the Union army. book on the Civil war and desired a i fresh view of locale and atmosphere. | They had visited Yorktown and Wil liamsburg, in which battles he had | taken part, and the itinerary was to | take them to Gaines’ Mills and Fair Oaks, where he had fought gallantly. His son and his nephew were hand- 1 some duehive a " Nows, who had Jdat ol UlMivuans, seen service and hunted tigers in In- dia. The old count pointed out and expatiated on interesting places z\loug! the historic route, scenes of notable engagements in which he had figured thirty years before, and became so ab- sorbed in the memories that he did not discover the keener interest mani- fested by the young noblemen in two pretty sisters of Richmond, one a blonde and the other a brunette, viva- cious and fond of admiration.

Not just then, though; the old count was watching the youngsters with rigorous He was stern, proud, a stickler for etiquette, never forgetting that he was undisputed head of the house of Bourbon. Before the boat reached Richmond, however, plans were arranged by Chesterman for the party to call on the girls at their home that evening. Weary from travel, the count was eas- ily persuaded to retire early, and was tucked away. His room at the old Lex- ington hotel was across the haH from that of the duke and prince. Nine o'clock found him asleep, while a cab with drawn curtains was hurrying the party of three to spend the evening with the beautiful sisters. Both the young noblemen spoke good English, and a jolly party it was, with clever glass of wine and the spice of adven- ture, When the party returned at mid- night the count awoke to learn the | | truth and things were blue around the hotel.

Ae Much Attention Given to the De- tails of Children’s Wear as to That of the Grown-Ups—No Fixed Waist Line. No more than in grown-ups’ is there any lack of variety in wearing ap- parel for children. Coats, frocks, hats —each shows interesting little touches, writes Cora Moore in the Washington Star. ; Children of all ages are wearing their skirts unusually short just Dnow, while as for the waist line, it may be anywhere above or below the nor- mal waist line, for the use of the nor- mal line has a tendency to make the fAgure look older, and the chief char- gcteristic of any frock between four and sixteen year sizes should be ite youthfulness, Chiffon seems hardly suitable for children’s frocks, even for wear at the most pretentious parties, but fashion, not always discreet, insists upon introducing it for their small ladyships this year; and, since that is s0, here is a delightful little mode! that can be made up quite inexpen- sively: The skirt, gathered with a two inch beading at the high waist line, has two three-inch tucks run around it, midway of the length.

I M IT WAS SO PUZZLING By JOHN NEWTON. \ Dobozy and Angyal were sitting on the divan in the smoking room talke ing of a fair-haired lady. The still ness of the night, the red light of the lamp on the armors, swords and shields on the wall, the strong Turk- {sh tobacco wrapped everything in the room in 2 blue fog and led their imag- {nations into the empire of mystery. They talked of many things in the ab- stract, though the principal subject of their conversation was a golden-haired lady who was very real indeed. "You know that I am madly in love with her,” said Dobozy, the magnate. “When I see her I have to use all my self-control not to throw myself at her feet. But listen—last week we were on our way towards the Turkish ruin and it was getting dark as we return ed. She and I had walked a little ahead of the others. We stopped on a bridge to wait for them. Below us the Danube was rushing and above our heads the moon was shining. Suddenly I felt her hand gripping my arm and she said: “I can look into your very soul as if it were made from glass. 1 can read every word writ- ten there. Surely you can also read mine. No, please do not say &ny- thing—" Strange words, you must admit. I did not answer. The others caught up with us. She was unusual- ly quiet all the rest of the evening. Occasionally she looked at me and smiled sadly. “And what happened then?’ asked Angyal, the poet, very much interest- ed. “We arranged a new excursion to Bookstal, and then we drove home. The next day we started out in six carriages. She sat opposite and until | we reached Jause she was bubbling lover with good humor. There some | gypsles began singing their ugly mel- "ancholy songs. ller face had turned quite pale and she bit her lips nervous- ly. At last I did not dare say any- thing more to her, for I felt her soul was filled with bitterness. Suddenly she arose and went away from the | rest of us to sit down alone on & bench in the wood. I followed her and noticed that her eyes were full | of tears and her face was convulsed with pain.” “Irma, do tell me what is the matter with you?” 1 asked. “She stamped her foot angrily and said: ‘Please lcave me alone. An hour later she drove home alone with- out saying goodby to anybody. But | now comes the strangest part of all. When we returned we passed her villa. She ¢tood on the balcony with her sister waving her hand at us, and when my carringe passed she threw a red rose to me and cried ‘Goodnight, Dobozy.” What do you think of this, my friend? How am I to explain the sudden change in her treatment of me? She must have a secret. But what can it be?” “A very interesting woman,” said Angyal. “It would be something to & poet to look into her soul. Perhaps he might be able to solve the riddle.” Now, here is the real explanation. On the day of the excursion to Rocks stal Irma had just received a pair of new shoes, which, of course, she must put on right away, Until they reached Jause, as long as they were sitting in the carriage, everything was well, but when she put her foot on the ground she might have screamed with pain, Bhe felt as it she were sitting on a crater of glowing lava bathing her feet in it. The others who no- tioed her distorted face began to question her and to put an end %0 this she walked to the bench in the wood and when Dobozy did not leave her alone even there she had an ad tack of nervous crylng. At last the pain became so unendurable that she drove home. As soon as she got rid of the two instruments of torture she felt as happy as ever before and her happiness culminated when she saw Dobozy driving by and she threw him the rose. The next day the golden-haired girl, beautiful and charming as ever, prom- enaded in the park, In front of the bandstand she met Dobosy, who at first felt rather em- barrassed, but Irma's bewitching smile soon gave him back his courage. An hour later Dobosy called on his friend, the poet Angyal. In a button hole was a rose Irma had worn im the morning. As soon as he saw An- gyal he burst out: “Congratulata me, old boy, Irma has promised to be my wife.” But neither of the two ever suo- ceeded in solving the riddle of Mrs. Irma Dobozy's life. i Found Doctor Didn't Nssd Him. > Woddtlng cut ups in Clay Center have new forin of diversion.
