Underwood.” “] am Mrs. Underwood,” she said. “I will take the telegram. Mr. Underwood is not here just now.” The messenger looked dubiou “When will he be back? asked, and 1 saw Lillian stiffen. “Not for two or three hours,” the said icily. “but that has nothing t¢ do with your delivery of the tele- gram. 1 always receive Mr. Under- wood's telegrams and answer them if they require a reply.” “This doesn’t need an answer,” the boy persisted. “It's an answer to one he sent, and he told us not to delive: it until a certain hour. They got it mixed up in the office whether he said one or four. so when it came in just now, the b said I'd better bring it along you." So Harry Underwood had rushed to the village at noon to send a tele- gram. My eyes went to Lillian's, end I w the same uncertain, startled questioning in them which I knew was reflected in my own. Then there flashed into them a purposeful gleam which held some- thing of sternness and somcthing oddly like impishness. “You may give me the telegram,” she said, holding out her hand for it. “Marion will you get my purse, please.” Then, as the boy hesitated, she spoke more sharply “Do you not understand?

Batchelor| Evening Wraps Are Longer With Retum To The Uneven Hemline Velvet Is Authentic Fabric, Rich Browns the Favorite Color, Bende! Says, There's BY HENRI BENDEL New Yok, Oct. 2.—Evening wraps have auccumbed to the irregular hemline that evening sowns made popular. Of _course it was inevitable, for there always was something in- congruous about a dipping chiffon frock under a atraight line coat. But, now that evening coats, capes and wraps have capitulated, tMey emphasize a longer line everywhere. The evening coat this winter will suggest extreme skirt ‘length, whether it does so by dip- ping sidea, a train back or merely a longer line all around. Velveteen Popular Velveteen i having a popular- ity in evening coats. Indeed vel- veteen is given very smart lines in one white evening coat with wide, kimono sleever edged in sable, vith a scarf collar of the velveteen that hangs its e clear to the ankle length at the rear of the garment. Velvet, authentic however, is the most rabric for evening wraps. Lames are always luxuri- ous in coats or capes. Fur trim- med. they have the ability to look extremely distinguished and tadi- vidual. Gold and silver lames are especially good this winter, shot with color and enriched by fur and lined with sumptuous satin or velvet, All the fabrics used for evening coats have a sheen this year, Vogue for Dolmans The coat is much better than the cape. But dolmans are hav- ing a vogte. There is someth'n, restrained and ladylike about a dolman. With a shirred collar of selt material, oue can achieve beauty and charm. Browns are popular for evening wraps, but the live, golden Lrowns, or the ruddy-red ones, not just dead, dull brown. One of ex- treme beauty is a caramel colored brown velvet with apricot velvet pointing a deep yoke under a shir- red collar and the same points re- peating up the slceves, from skir- red, wide cuffs, Collars, hemlines and are the important things in wraps this winter, after color and fabric are ehosen. 1 show today two ver- sions of the latest things for win- ter. sleeves h and clegant is a gold and bright green lame evening coat, with brown dyed-skunk fur for short collar and shallow cuffs on the flaring sleeves The cut of this goat is the epi- tome of skill and grace. 1t starts out in straight-line fashion hut at hip-length across the back and both sides a graduated gathered flounce is applied.

Of course, there is al- ways more water in the Laughing Brook when it rains. Jerry didn't pay any attentiog to it. Jerry worlied hard that day and he was tired. He went to bed in his new house; and, because he was tired, he soon went to sleep. He was awakened by water. Yes, sir, he found that he was sleeping in water.

There was a strong current in the Smiling Pool. There should have been hard- ly any current at all. When lerry poked his head above water he found that it was still raining, : nd raining hard. The Laughing Brook ‘was no longer laughing. The noise it made was a roar, rather than a laugh. Jerry climbed up on top of his house. Only half of his roof was above water now. Only n the apring had he ever seen the Smil- ing Pool as big as it now was. “This is bad,” said Jerry. “T hope the water will not rise any more. 1 guess it won't do any harm to -y new house, but if it should get much higher I wouldn't like it.” But Jerry wasn’t very much wor- ried. This wasn't the time of year for floods. If it should stop raining the water would soon go down. Jerry knew this. Bo he sat on top of his house and watched. Little by little, little by little, slowly but steadily, the water crept farther up the roof. By the time daylight came and Jerry could see around, only the top of his roof like a little island, was above water.
