Kentucky Bufldinx Lakeland, Florida ITH the earliest hats for spring, or with some of them, there is no chance of coiffures which require any extra size in the crown or head-size. For the new ventures in millinery are even smaller than the small hats worn this winter. Many of them are merely a narrow band of satin or straw ex- tending like a bandage about the head, supporting a scant crown of satin gath- ered in to the band at its upper edge. By way of trimming, exquisitely made flowers are sewed flat to the band. There are sailors and other shapes that fit as closely. For such close-fitting headwear the problem is that of disposing of the average quantity of natural hair so that it will not interfere with the fit of the hat, and also to provide a few waves in the locks about the face to soften the severity of straight lines in the hat. The plain coiffure shown in the picture given here offers a solu- tion that is attractive. It is becoming 0 most faces and easy to accomplish. The hair is parted off about the face and combed forward, where it is to be coiled and pinned to keep it out of the way, while the back hair is dressed. If there is a sufficient quantity of this to braid into two soft full plaits It may be managed as shown in the pic- ture. The plaits are pinned flat across the back of the head below the crown. If the hair is scanty it will look better twisted into light coils and pinned down, The front hair {s to be parted either in the middle or a little to one side and rolled back from the face. The ends are twisted and concealed under the back hair. With the toilet comb strands of the hair about the face are pulled forward into loose waves and ' pinned with invisible pins into posi- tion. A liberal use of the hairpins will keep thc coiffure neat looking, and as hair nets are hardly practical for this particular style, the pins are a necessity. JULIA BOTTOMLEY. Royal Ermine in a Chic Matched Set ¢ POINT By JOHN Y. LARNED In the gond old days when there was | no cust iron railway rule to prevent ia passenger from riding on a locomo- | tive, about to start on a run between two stations. | went forward aud ob- tained leave of the man at the throt- tle to do the distance—about twelve | miles—with him. He was pear 6fty | years old. but hale and hearty. Just before starting a woman about thirty years old came to the engine !and stoud tulking to the engineer ear- ! nestly for a few minutes, then turned inwuy. As she did so 1 could see by the look she gave him that she had a ! great affection for him. but whether it | was that of wife or sister I could not “tell. Yieldini to curiosity, I asked the i question. “She’s not my wife,” he said. “She’s ibad two busbands and [ shouldn't ithink she’d want another. Her tirst ' husband wus a bad one, and the sec- ond didn’t live long.” | “There seems to be a story In her : case.” | remarked. “I'd like tc hear it." | He made no reply until we were well , out in the open country. Then he said: | *Somehow I feel like telling you the | story this morning. I've kept it long. + but now it seems to want to come out. ‘The young womun you refer to was . little more than a kid when I was ' coming on to middle age. She was in i love with a youngster named Perkins, a little older than she was, but her father wouldn't let ber marry bim. | Perkins went off somewhere, and ; Sallle—that's her name—married a man (named Thorpe, who bhad just come 'into some money. Sallie's father thought he knew what was best for his daughter and made the match, Sal- lle not being willing, for she loved Perkins. Thorpe run through the mon- ey he'd inherited—they said he gam- bled 1t away—and it wasn't long aft- erward that he lit out. leaving his wife to get on the best way she could. “She heard nothing from him for two or three years; then one day she saw a notice of the death of a man of the | same name in a hospital in a distant ‘ecity. It was too far away for her to go and investigute the matter, and she | didn't have the money anyway, so she | wrote for a description of the man, and the one given ber tallled with her husband exactly. “Another year passed and Perkins came back one fine day, and learning that Sallle was a widow went to see her. Perkins was a nice chap and had made some money. Sallle would have married him right away, but she felt . kind of uneasy about Thorpe, not be- ' !ing certain that he was dead. She | waited a year, Perkins begging her to ! marry him all the while: then she ' gave in. “There was another man who had wanted Sallie from the time she was seventeen years old, but he was then double her age and had no show agalnst the youngsters.” “That man.” 1 interrupted, “is your- self.” He turned toward me with a sur- prised look and asked how I knew that. 1 made no reply, and he contin- ued: “Sallie was very happy with her sec- ond husband for about two years; then something happened. 1 bad always lived near her. and she knew that, whenever she needed any one to lean | ' on she could come to me. One night | about 11 o'clock there was a rap at ‘' my door. I put on some clothes, went | down and opened it. There stood Sal- | , He, white as n sheet and trembling all over 1 begged her to tell me what | was the matter, but instend of doing 80 she clutched my wrist and led nn-' to the back yard of her home. ’l'here: was n man lying there, but I couldn't see who he was. [ struck a match | and saw-TFhorpe. He was dead. | | “It was clenr that Sallle had been | iving with Perkins while she was an- | other man's wife. | had to make up my mind mighty quick what to do. “‘Bring me a tablecloth or a shawl or something,’ [ sald to Sallie. “She went Into the bouse and came back with a big shawl. | wrapped it around the body. then took it up in my arms. | “‘Doun’t say n word to any one' 1 said, ‘till 1 see you again.® { *I carried the body to my own yard ! and put it in an outhouse while I dug | @ grave: then 1 burled it six feet un- derground and put back the sod over e | “And risked being hanged for mur- der?" 1 interrupted. | “The nest morning I watched for Perkins to leave his house, then went | to Sallie and told her what 1 had done. I made her believe that all would be well if she could keep the secret. [ mentioned the risk I'd taken. We've neither of us mentioned the matter to the other or to any one else, and | no barm has ever come of it. It's not i been hard on me. but it was terrible | on Sallle while Perkins lived.” RMINE is for those who may in-|into entire coats or very ample capes = “When will you marry Sallle?” I dulge in luxuries and buy other furs for real utility. Not that the roy- al fur is not durable enough, but be- cause its creamy whiteness makes it unpractical for the workaday world. It is a fur for occasional wear and, since it will last for a long time, should be selected in shapes of muffs and neckpieces that are always in style. The rather large flat muff and the plain straight scarf are never passe, and therefore the safest choice in the richest furs. Narrow boas of ermine and small neckpleces are really more chic than any other finish to the pretty midwin- ter promenade or visiting toflette. Muffs, whether made to wear with large or small scarfs and neckpieces, are rather large. But ermine is of those splendid things that look best when sparingly used. Like diamonds that are too large. and and scarfs. In the picture an attractive set is shewn, with the neckpiece only two skins in width and the muff an excel- lent shape. The set is exquisitely made. The setting-in of the brilliant blackpoints of the tails is a feature that shows how expert workmanship can add to the bezuty of that which is already beautiful. There are certain types among wom- en to which ermine is especially well suited. There must be something in the wearer to match up with the emi- nence of that fur which is the wear of queens.

When I alighted the engineer grasped my band and said: | “1 am much obliged for the pointer you've given me.” Novel Means of Communication. Wounded British soldiers in the hands of the Germans have hit upon a novel way of communicating with their families and friends at home. They subscride small sums of money to the German Red Cross soclety, but as few of them have any cash they fill draft or sign a check to be seni to Londoun atd honcred Or ke back of the draft the banker Ia reqnested to communicate the news of the drawer’s safety to his home Tommy Atkins thinks it is well worth a dollar sub scription ..

Oue suwmwer Miss Susan Jone: a matter of fact young woman ever trod the xoil, took it into her i to spend her v fon in upper Can These two wict in the tutian home on the banks of the Littie \ river. Miss Jones said she hoa much of Indian nds nud 1 didn’t get the girl's nawe; Miss Jones said it was Minne-Something-or-Other ~to tell her one. Thereupon the Indian told the following story: “Abasen was the daughter of a great chief, who lived long. long ugv when the tirst white man came to tils coun- try. She bad never seen any manp ex cept a"— | “Indian,” suggested Miss Joues. “She bad only seen the dusky men | of the forest like herself. The first man to come was tall as the young pine, straight as the arrow and s eye was that of the eagle. Abusca saw him, und her beart iew to him like the bird." “A case of love at first sight. you mean?" “Abasca was loved by Storwmwind, the son of a chief. Stormwind was brave as the water that leaps from the rock, and his arrow could pierce the leaf that trembles at the top of the tree"— “A regular Willlam Tell," Miss Joues interrupted. “He had not the heart to give way ; to another. He was not born to know | that to love Abasca truly he should { glve her to the man she loved. The | white man might do that, not the In- ; dian. " Stormwind learned that she had ! given her heart to the white maun, and he resolved that the white man should die. “Stormwind made this vow at the - season when in this country the lamp ! never goes out at night." “Did they use kerosene or oll?” “For the winter had passed when ! the sun at midday is small and cold in | the south. The white man was in the ! wood where he hunted ®¥he fox and the mink and the otter. Stormwind tollowed the trall and came to his enemy whea the sun stood high above their heads. [ *“Crapper.’ said Stormwind.” “What a funny name! 1 like Storm- , wind much better.” ! *“‘The white man may come; the white man may hunt the fox and the | mink and the otter; he may ride in his boat over the waves of the great bay. but he shall not take the maiden from the Indian.’ | “When he said this Stormwind fitted | an arrow to his bow. It may be he ! bad never seen the white man's rifle; | it may be he had never seen the white mun raise the rifie quickly to his shoul- der and the deer far away drop dead. | Before he “wd fitted his arrow to his i bow and pointed it at his enemy the | white man's eye ran along the barrel of his weapon.” “Trapper had the drop on him, hadn’t he? How thrilling! Go on!" *‘Stormwind,’ he said, ‘put back your arrow into your quiver before 1 send the lead into your heart. Abasca is yours. 1 do not wed here In the for- est. The white man loves the white woman, not the Indlan squaw.’ “From the woods came a plercing shriek. The white man lowered his rifle and the red man his bow. It was a woman's volce they heard. From a cliff near by it came again, fainter, but more despairing than before. It was the echo.” “For heaven's sake, what was it? A spook ¥ “It was the wail of Abasca. She had seen Stormwind go away with the look of an angry Manitou on his brow, and she knew that be wus going to fight the man she loved Seizing a . fle from the tepee, she followed her dusky lover and saw him when he spoke to”"— “I'rapper.” “She held her rifle to her shoulder ready when Stormwind was about to send his arrow to his rival's beart or when the white man raised his rifle to kill the man she did not love.” “She must have been awfully rat- tled.” “When she heard the white man say he did not love her she dropped her rifle, giving a cry that caused the white cloud sailing in the heavens above to tremble.” “I wonder she hadn’t shot the brute.” | “Then the white man and the Indian | went in the direction from whence the ! sound came and saw on a high rock the form of Abasca. She was on the edge of a deep gulf beneath her, sway- ing here and there as the branch is moved by the wind. Then slowly her head bowed over the chasm, and nl' the bird folds its wings and drops her beautiful form descended to death.” “You wouldn’t catch me doing that for the handsomest man that ever lived. What did the men do then?” “The white man went back to the white man’s country; the Indian went out on the bay. and the storm wind, for which be was named, arose and claimed him.” “I'll bet that man Trapper was pay- ing alimouy to some woman in the | states. He was just mean enough w‘ fool that poor Indian girl” Asiel- Formation of California Coast. The geologists tell us a strange story of the California coast.
