Having just returned from a visit down the state, Miss Spinks was full of her experiences, “I don’t know why,” she said to her brother, “but everybody talked to me on the trains and street cars.” “It's that new hat of yours,” her brother sald. “Besides, you probably smiled first.” “I mean women and children, of course,” said Miss Spinks. “Now, there was the queerest woman on the | train coming back to Philadelphia. At first I thought she was at least fifty, and then I was sure she was no ! more than eighteen.” “Her young life was probably | crushed,” her brother said. “Give { ber a new slit skirt and she'd be all right.” I “Well, she was dressed queerly,” conceded she wore her P hair in a braid « d her blue dress ' was trimn with a good deal of red.” I “Not half as gorscous as that pink pdress ol yours with the brass stuff | on,’ brother, L “That's a ty dress I\‘RP](‘ dress | simply n traveli | “Don’t be too seve said her | brother. “Maybe tr .\z-lln' was to this | friend of yours what a ball is to you.” | “Well, anyway,” continued Miss Spinks, “she sat and stared at me for a long time so fixedly that I coul@n’t help looking at her. She had very queer eyes and she carried a patent leather satchel that she kept polishing with her liandkerchief. Finally she spoke.” “Asked you where you were go- | ing?” “No. She said travel was a great educator.” “She was hopetul for your future, then?” “I agreed it as Mizs Spinks | went on, unhee she told me | she was on her iy to Reading, | where she was to visit a couin who i knew the postmastor. The postmas- ter had promised 1o show her all the fpninls of intercst it wiole place {and she was very mueh excited about e “He must be a cmuert man, that postmaster.” “After a while she leaned over to- ward me and said that 1 must be very careful. 1 asked why, thinking of | wrecks and confidence men, and she said that wherever one traveled there were pickpockets and T must look out not to be victimized.” “What a simple village must have scemed to her!” “I said T never cauried enough | money to tempt any one, and she ' whispered back that ¢he did, a very great deal. She had, however, an | invention that would catch them whenever they came.” “What a disappointment!” said the maid you brother. “She was nothing but a traveling agent after ali!” “Indeed, she wusn't!” saild Miss Spinks. “Her ipvention was not for rale. She said shie lined her dress pocket with fish hooks!" “Fish hooks!'" ox-lain d her broth- er. “How did slie cot her money out herself ?" “I don't know.” confessed Miss Spinks, looking pnzzled. “T forgot to ask her. It seemed very possible then, but, somehow, now it looks odd.” “Sort of fishy? “She said a friend of hers tried it and a man put his hand into her pocket and couldn't get it out again. She thereupon led him fo the police station and had hin ed.” “Did she say ar ? “No,” said Mi ] thinking back.

Any mother who has time to do tancy work can make one of these belts, as they are composed simply of cretonne cr flowered linen embroidered with fine silk braid in white or a pale shade of rose, blue, green or maize. The braid is not applied flatly, but on the edge, so that it shall stand out boldly from the foundation mate- rial, but it does not appear upon the edges of the belt, which are turned under and stitched down. There are no buckles, but one end is sharply pointed and hooked invisibly far over the other end, which is square cut. Futurist Lingerie. A sheer finc cotton fabric with a border design in vivid futurist colors is being used for undergarments. Co- quettish chemises are fashioned of it, and they have ribbon, shoulder straps matching a color in the border. There are also dainty little petticoats of the material, PAVGQAQUGOACOVOOQQOIIO0OC D il Prolessiofs- Practice Limited to Trea‘ment and Operations of Eye, KEar, Nose and Throat.
