Love’s Awakening The Hnn Story Studlut Wom By Adele Garrison How to Protect Lillian from the Machinations of Brixton Is the I’rob- lem of Madge and Katherine 1 looked at Katherine attentively as she made her vicious little com- ment upon the “third degree” which 1 had told her Prince Georges was | agministering to Charles Owen in the library. “] gather that you do not care particularly for the gentleman,” 1 said, keeping my voice low, al- though, indeed there was no danger of the dancers overhearing us. Princess Olina was throwing herself into the task of keeping little Caro- | Iyn Brixton interested, and was suc- ceeding wonderfully. I knew that any spare attention she might have was being bestowed surreptitiously upon Noel, who was dancing with Mary as if he were treading the stars. Mary was equally absorbed, and when I turned my eyes toward the other couple, T saw with amusement slightly tinged with worry that Ronald and Marion were enjoying the dance and each other's company most zestfully. Coquetry comes in- stinctively to most girls, and Marion, with her flower-like face upturned to Ronald's admiring e: ing her lamps,” in 13 cious parlance, as skillfully and with | as marked effect as if this were her thousandth collegiate dancing part- ner instead of her first. Katherine did not speak until the dancers had whirled to the other side of the room, then she assented emphatically, though softly, to my comment upon her feeling toward Charles Owen. “The man's a mess,” she said. “I've been watching him and that precious brother of his all the eve- ning.

Now he must make the most of bis opportunity for it was getting late in the season. The first thing was to find a home. He had to get acquainted with this place in which he had chosen to make his new home. He must know all the hollows in the trees and all the hollow logs. He must find out where other peo- ple lived, 8o for a while Rusty was a very busy Squirrel, as he ran this way and scampered that way and happed the other way. You know, Rusty is much .bigger than Happy Jack the Grey Squirrel. He is a stout, heavy fellow. Happy Jack spends a good deal of time on the ground, but Rusty spends even more. At last Rusty found & hollow in a tree- trunk. It was deep enough and it was big enough. Best of all, it “/as not occupied by any one. He knew this as soon as he went inside, for there were no beds there. Rusty pro- ceeded to make a bed. This was to be his winter home, “No sald Rusty, when his bed was made to suit him, “I've got to find some storehouses. It won't do to let Rough Brother North Wind and Jack Frost catch me without plenty of food stored away. It was for this that I left the Green For- est and made the long journey to this place.” @e Rusty began hunting. By and ®y he found a hollow log on the ground. It was half covered by brush.

The children to whom she has given years of unstinted devotion have gone on to the responsibility of being parents themselves.

The infant did. not react to cow's milk, egg. heef, potato or cereals, tut did react promptly to extracts of navy beans. Mother on Diet The mother was put on a diet from which beans and corn were eliminated. and the infant was given a preparation which aids in the control of this condition of sensitization. Within 36 hours the swelling disappeared and Jlew ones did not develop. Whén, however, the preparation was discontinued, the swellings ap- peared again, so that this was kept W with gradually lengthening of intervals between doses wuntil after five and one-half months, when the infant was able to get along entirely without the drug. 1t was discovered later that the mother had occasionally included and corn in her diet, al- though asked not to do so by he vhysician, and that the awellings had invariably followed the taking of such food. ‘When the infant was two years of age it was again given as an ex- periment some white navy beans.

Chill, New Hats For Women's Wear| Brimless, Original Models Use Varied Materials, New York, Nov. 22.—Choosing th right hat for wear with furs is a i problem. But just as the modiste adapt- ed herself to the bobbed head, s0 the high fur collar has been ac- cepted and allowances made for it to the extent that a whole series of stunning hats are especially de- signed for it. There is no back brim hats. In the main they are little tams, berets, cloche models or shaped turbans. But they are charmingly feminine, becoming. individual and, often, exceedingly decorative atop a smart coat of tur. to these Two Materials The vast majority of these com- bine a couple of materials. Plain felt and the new long-haired type called “fox-felt” or ‘rabbit-felt” make a good combination, Vel- vety velours take inserts of hat- ter's plush, Pressed velvets are new, used oftenest with fine felt. Panne velvet is excellent and a new hat material ix panne taupe. Most of these little fur coat hats have trimmings of another fabric even If their shapes do not include at least two. Velvet ribbon, grad- ed by color - into little feathers, flowers and other ' decorations s very good. Quills, feather fancies, and lace are used too. If a pin is added. it is because it is distinct- ive, not just a pin. Original Flare Reboux makes a little tight-fit- ting turban of rough black velours that has a flange flared back in amazing originality, One side is brimless. The other turns it back high in the center front, graduat- ing to nothing In the back. Across this, from the ear to the top of the head, a flame and jade silk orna- ment adds its color. 3 This hat tis slightly Russian looking. It wonld be even more so if astrakan fur were used in some way for it. But, as it is it is & chic, svelt, and most original looking model, cut perfectly to ac- commodate itself to the highest of fur collars. A second way to meet this prob- lem is shown in a little ‘l-‘lorr-nce Walton draped turban in greem and fur-grey velvet. This is a be- coming solution, especially for the lucky woman Who possesses a well-shaped head. For this is so form-fit that it traces the headline from forehead to the nape of the neck. The two colors, green and fur- grey, alteraate in making this hat and therehy give the body of i* a slight resemblance to a melon. The front swathing also combines the two cglors. And on one side a smart aigrette uses the two tones. Compromising with the season’s earlier demand for some new and startling back treatment of ‘¢ha- pearq Reboux mmkes a sweet Ht- tle model of wood brown felt, vel- vet trimmed.

BY DORIS NILLS One of the best examples of gruce in walking is Quecen Vicloria of Spain. I have seen her cross a lawn before an immense throng of peo- ple whose eyes were fastened on her every movement. That was an or- deal. And yet she seemed to ftloat rather than to walk. The resuit was the very embodiment of natural, queenly grace. How did she Simply by applying of the old-fashioned stepped on her hecl ance was carricd to the toe. There was no jorking, no angularity. Even though the quech were not as lovely a woman as she is, that walk of hers would cause people to catch their breath in admiration, There are those who, taught foe dancing in the studio, follow the same principle in walking in the strect. There is nothing worse than to go springing along on the toes, which is both unnatural and ungraceful. The most important rule in walking is to retain the relaxing idea of light freedon of step and of carriage of the body, just as in the old-fashioned waltz, stepping ftirst on the flat of the foot, then on the toe. To paraphrase an old ing, when self-consciousness comes in at the door, grace flies out of the window. Many a girl who is na- turally a graceful walker, if faced by a gazing multitude, would he overcome with fear and timidity. Consequently, she would walk in an ungraceful way of which at any other time she would be utterly incapable. There is one reliable way to avoid know the why accomplish it ? the principles waltz. She and the bal- slowly forward and only such experiences — and wherefore of the proper way to do things. When one is certain of the right way, one does them unconsclously even when, in the first moments of an unusual experience, the mind s fluttering from nervousness. A noted French authority train. ed his pupils on just this plan for appearing on the concert ge. He had them rehearse over and over what they would do in com- ing out before the public and in the moment when nerves, affecting the calm working of the mind, would interfere — in other words, when they were aelf-conscious. Therefore, when surprise or a try- ing emergency came, they werc 8o firmly grounded in the right way of doing things that they did them instinetively until the mind work- cd normally.
