Early in the winter I bought a taupe fat with a plume shaded from taupe to a vivid roge. At first I liked it very much, but when the shaded plumes be- gan to be common I-grew tired of it and wished I had chosen a more ex- clusive style, I saw a hat in a shop | window in our neighborhood that was just what I desired. As it was marked down on account of the lateness of the season, I was strongly tempted. to buy it, but it seemed extravagance when my own hat was perfectly good. Then | 1 thought I saw a chance to do len Fannie a favor. “You really need a new hat,” I said to her, “and I'll be glad*to let you have | this one, dear, at half what I paid for it" “If 1 need a new one,” Cousin Fannie said, laughing in an odd way, “why . should I buy your old one?” “But this is just as good as new and much handsomer than anything you could find at the price,” I explained. “You know very well that for me it would be quite out of character,” she declared. “I'm really surprised, Lu- cile, that you should ask me to buy it.” The annoyance in Cousin Fannie's ' tone was distinctly unpleasant to me. | - I am always so sensitive, and I had been merely trying to be obliging. I think Cousin Fannie {8 growing more and more difficult. It requires a great deal of patience and tact on my part to live with her, despite my unhlllng good temper. I had almost resigned myself to' wearing the taupe hat until it was time to get a spring one, when Arthur Knight and George Requier invited .| Louise Erwin and me to a little social affair at their club. Then I felt that I positively must dress in a manner to do them credit. As poor, dear Louise is such a dowdy, it seemed especially necessary for me to look my best. 1 went around to the little milliner's and found that the hat I had admired was still there. When I tried it on I saw at once that it suited my style exactly. “But I oughtn't to buy it,” I sighed. “I really can't afford another hat when | this one of mine is so perfectly good.” “It's wonderfully becoming,” said the milliner. “You won't regret pick- ing up such a bargain.” But I still hesitated. “If I could only sell this,” I said as I took off the new hat and contemplated my old one ' a moment before putting it on. “Leave it here and I'll do my best to sell it for you,” said the milliner. “How good of you!” I exclaimed as T opened my purse and paid for the new hat. I wore away my new pur- chase with great pleasure. Both Arthur and George manuofl to convey their appreciation of my ap- pearance on the day of the social af- fair and I felt repaid for my effort. I was a little sorry for Louise, for I must confess that the contrast between us was rather painful. But Louise did Fla: | not appear to notice it. She seems to be one of those unfortunate persons who pay little attention to dress. I sometimes marvel that she is invited anywhere. I watched the milliner's window with interest and was disappointed to see my hat still there every time I passed. 1 began to think that I would have to take it home and wear it for second best. ' Then one day I happened to meet { Carol Nodine shopping madly. “I suppose I look like a back num- ber,” she said. “You know, I haven't been in town this winter until today, and I need almost everything before 1 can go anywhere.” “If you want a hat you'd better go to a splendid little milliner up our way,” I sald. “She sells perfect beau- ties at about half what you'd pay downtown. I bought this hat there.” “Really? It's charming. I'll certain- ly try her. What do you think I ought to get?” “Well, I suppose you know that the taupe hats with shaded plumes are having a great run this year, and they are awfully pretty, but I don’t know what you really need, Carol.” Today Betty came to our house ap- parently with the sole purpose of tell- ing me that Carol had discovered that the hat she bought was one that I had “discarded” and that Carol is deeply oftended! I am sure that Carol has no cause for complaint against me. In the first place, I purposely avoided advising her in regard to a hat, and it is surely not my fault that she hap- pened to buy mine. I wish I knew what busybody told her. I simply can- not understand how people can do such ill-natured things. Proud of Their Capacity. Apropos of West Virginia’s dryness, Mayor Rockwell of Pleasant Farms said: “On account of its high summer temperature the consumption of beer in this state from June to September used to be remarkable. There were some ill-advised West Virginians who were even proud of it. “Two such men, residents of Graf- ton, spent their summer vacation in New York. Their first evening in New York was devoted to roof gardening. On a cool roof garden, under the shin- ing stars, they saw on every side well- dressed people drinking iced drinks through straws. “This sight amused them, and, when the waiter came for their order, the older Graftonian sald: “‘We're from Grafton. Bring n- two buckets of beer and two pipes’” ; E s back. Phone No. 340 @ % A. P.

The frock was made in Russian style with an invisible closing at the center front and two box plaits running | from shoulder to hem . in front and back. A sash of red moire is dnwnl beneath these plaits and knotted to the left of the front. The little white lawn collar and cufts have an em- broidered design picked out in red.

Furs and Furbelows. As to furs, a muff and neckplece of velvet with the merest scrap of fur as trimming is all that the true Paris- fenne allows herself this year. Sol- diers must have medicine and band- ages and warm clothing for the cold nights spent in the trenches, and all the money that can be spared is in- vested in these supplies for the army. There is also the unhappy fact that, while her American sister is wearing bands of fur on her winter frocks, the Parisian is wearing bands of crepe.— Vogue. To Clean Black Satin.
