Then two soft arms en- circled his neck, a velvety cheek was lald against his own, and a beautiful voice murmured tenderly: “What made you so late, dear?” Roger sat like a man dazed, stunned by the touch of lips and cheek. After a throbbing silence he half whispered; “I beg your pardon!” There was a horrified exclamation, A swift withdrawal of arms, and the sound of vanishing skirts. In a distant part of the house he heard echoes of mirthful laughter. Presently Darnley came out of the house. “After prowling all over the prounds, T found the girls in the din- ing-room preparing a chafing dish lunciicon for us. Come in and meet them.” In the diningroom Roger was pre- sented to the three girls. In vain he | looked into the roguish faces seeking some tell-tale token.

And was I also supposed | to be my father when I gat out on the porch just now?” he asked, mean- | ingly.

This fr has the ex- tremely short waist which French designers exploit when they A very pre frock of marg model extremely long waist. The skirt joins the waist beneath a band of fine embroidery which :ontinues to the skirt hem on the left side. A narrow pleat- ing of the batiste is placed as a band about the bottom of the skirt. The embroidery finishes the sleeves while the round neck is outlined by a pleated frill of the batiste. A knot of rose ribbon worn to the left of the front adds a touch of color to the frock. BANDEAU HAT HERE TO STAY Millinery Idea Seems to Have Won Permanent Place, After Many Unsuccessful Attempts. Every so often the bandeau rises im- pertinently and tiptilts woman's head- gear at a daring angle. Sometimes this attempted uprising on the part of “~tbrims is sternly quelled by the refusal of womankind in general to accept the style. Such was the case ! last spring and the spring before that, but this year the bandeau really seems to have established a place for itself in millinery, and the latest mod- els from Parls milliners show ban- deaus under the brim at the back, the hat tipping forward over the face and shading the eyes. course, an entirely new line, for the trend of trimmings and shapes has been backward and downward at the back and pointing downward over the nose will accomplish a metamorphosis in millinery if the bandeau idea takes hold. played In a Washington window, at- tracted much attention. One was a tiny altair of black Milan with a bit of a brim turning down at the front and on one side. The low crown was elliptical in shape and was just high enough to fit over the hat. All around this pert little hat went a wreath of “black-eyed Susans,” and from the bandeau, set under the brim at the back, depended streamers of buff rib- bon, edged with a picot border of | black. The other bandeau model was an old-fashioned leghorn *“flat,” which was tipped forward on a two-inch ban- deau covered with blue moire ribbon. Streamers of the blue moire floated from the bandean and masses of for- get-me-nots formed a low crown on the flat-brimmed leghorn shape. At the front, a little cluster of heliotrope added a charming bit of color con- trast. NEWEST BATHING SUIT There is a certain dignity about the new beach suit with a high Mediel | collar of exquisite hand embrolidery and lace and draped skirt that is made attractive against a background of blue skirt and sandy beach. This particular model is developed in striped gatin in rich Roman colorings. Back to Grandmother Styles.

Why, my child, fifty years ago one of my best dresses was trimmed with ribbon in exactly that same way.” From an Old Raincoat.
