Some one was milking. “'Simmins' man,” she supposed. Well, she wouldn’t need him after today and she’'d find out how much she owed him. She opened her mouth to ask when the man turned and she recog- nized her shiftless neighbor, Mr. Lee- ty. Her lips straightened. ‘‘“Why are you milking my cow?” He got up. “Why, I guess because I didn’t think you was able. I don't— know any other reason.” “An’ I suppose you have been sup- plying your own wants all the time I've | been sick.” “No'm, I ain’t!” His eyes flashed. “Well, I'll do my own milkin’ now. I'll send your money over when I fig- ger it up. Good morning.” So Mr. Leety took his departure, and things at Miss Angelina’s moved on in ! their accustomed schedule. On Sunday she sent his money over 'to Mrs. Purvis. And on Monday Mrs. Purvis took the money, went to town and bought some things, which she sent out to Miss Angelina by parcel post, with a note. “He won't take anything, so I went to town and bought some stuff for you to hem. He needs sheets and towels and tablecloths. He's a very kind man. No one else could come. If it hadn’t been for him your live stock would have starved.” Miss Angelina was thunderstruck, indignant, puzzled, and repentant in the next 24 hours. In three days the things were done and she took them over herself.

APRIL 4, 1914, NEW NECKWEAR STYLE GREATER VARIETY NOW THAN FOR MANY SEASONS. as Popular as Ever—High Stand- Ing Medici Collar Also Much Liked. Even to give a general description of the new neckwear is difficult, be- ceuse there is such a wide range of styles. One might say that the list starts with the plain flare collar and ends with a soft vest girdle. So varfed in length are these accessories that Waistcoat of Net and Taffeta. taffeta, extending in jabot effect down each side of a V front, There is quite a vogue for walst- coats this spring. They are fash- cluding taffeta in every shade, pique, linen, crepe and net. White net com- bined with white chiffon taffeta formed the materials used for one of the smartest vests seen this season, and which is shown in the {llustration. The body of the vest is made of fine net shirred on the shoulders and again shirred at the bottom into a waistcoat or high girdle which fas- tens at the front with three crystal buttons. At the armholes of the body of the vest, which {8 nothing more than a slit from shoulder to girdle, there is a narrow plaited frill of net. The soft crush collar is of the white taffeta. There are also exquisite lit- tle waistcoats formed of pompadour Taffeta, in the Prettiest of Colorings, | Princess Lace, Ribbon Bow. the fancy of the wearer, Shadow lace, chiffon, net and crys- tal buttons are effectively utilized in the development of the popular fichu. These materials are used alone or in combination, and any combination seems to be successful if it is cleverly worked out. they may finish with only an ordinary collar, or they may lengthen until they verge into a soft girdle at the waistline. Taffeta, as in dresses and coats, is much in evidence in the latest neck- wear. It is seen in pompadour weaves with their lovely colorings, as well as in the shaded weaves and solid colors, £ Taffeta ruches and Medici collars of the same silk will in a measure take the place of the ostrich feather and malines neckpieces which have been in favor so long, and which are worn in the early autumn and in the first warm days of spring when neckpleces of fur would be too clumsy and warm. One of the most attractive of the taf- feta neckpieces introduced this season consisted of a high standing Medici collar of pompadour silk softened by frills of cream-tinted lace. The taf- feta had a black ground strewn over with large, red roses and green leaves in soft tonmes. The wide lace frills were placed inside next the neck and fell over the high standing collar of MARY DEAN.

Now that they have massage after the tango, why not introduce a little road work, skipping the rope and oth- er training stunts to condition the dancers. Instead of really hating music, those African troglodytes may have merely mistaken the weird strains of “Hitchy- koo” for the advance guard of the St. Vitus dance. The male of the species is llkely to ' be more deadly than the female if ' the tallors with their threats of skin- tight clothes and freakish folderols have their way. ! Reports that the tango is dying out in popularity abroad seem to be fully justified, as not a single princess has quarreled with her royal spouse for more than a week. to a stake which is the point of be- ginning; run thence north 6.787 chains to a stake; thence west .295 chains; south 6.787 chains; ecast .295 chains to the beginning.
