Tho return trip wasn't as easily accomplished as tho one going, but after surmounting no mo unexpected stnrtlng point and accomplished onn of tha things that has been prodlctod for airships In tho last fow years an Intercity flight, Hamilton mado ono of tho fast onglnos on tho Pennsylvania railroad that was pulling a pilot trnln hump to kaop up with him and smnshod a few more records. This aviator has Just recently cotno Into promlncnco among those who nro now engaged In llytng tho skies, but those who know htm say ho promises to be n lender In tho sport Ho tins tho courago and the neces sary nervn and has madn a study of tho game. Ilcforo autumn has passed there aro to bo flights between Now York nnd Chicago nnd St. Louis, for which big prizes have boon offered. Hamil ton's admirers say thoy will hack him to win tho race In which ho Is entered. Just now aviation Is nothing mora many Count Zeppelin has placed It on a commorclal basis. Tha count, how over, uses a dlrlglhlo airship and not tho biplane or monoplsnn types with which tho Wright brothers, Paulhan, Curtlss and Hamilton have Hindu their Kuccesses.

It Is tho husband who shoulders tho blama. Ho says It was too great a waato of talent for Miss llllngton to wield tho darning nuudlo.

It Is snfn to say that nine out of ten women would prefer the stage. Margaret llllnttton was confident seven months ago that slio would Ilka to darn nocks, Oho already was n great actress.

RALEIGH NELSON Dora pinned n memorandum on Jack's handkerchief that morning, put a noto In his lunch box, fastened a rubber band around tbo stem of bis watch, and as she waved him a last farewell from tho porch sho called "Now, Jnck, don't forgot! Ho sure to coma home on tho five o'clock trnln. It wob tho busy week preceding March examinations, and Dora, for all her precaution, felt no nssuranco that Jack would remember her in junctions, but to her surprise nnd de light, he enme at the tlmo appointed Dinner was enten with all posslblo ex pedition, tho dishes stacked, un washed, In tha sink, nnd they rusbea upstnlrs to dress. Tho harrowing ex periences Incident upon tho assump tion of unfamiliar garments ubsoruca them both too completely for any dis cussion of their evening's plans. At 7:10 thoy boarded tho train for tho city, nnd arrived at tho Wells street station at 7:31 by the big clock. Jack consulted his watch, sotting It forward threo minutes, Then ho asked: "Say, Dora, you said It was a wed ding, didn't you?" Horn laughed, but sho was evidently annoyed. "Why, my dear. I don't bcllovo you henrd ono word of what I said this morning. It's Clnrn Farlnsworth's wedding." "Oh, yes." assented Jack, sagely nodding his head; "I rotnotnbor tho wholo matter perfectly. He begnn to wntch tho street signs on tho lamps at tho corners, and sud denly thrust his head out of the win dow and cnllcd to tho driver to halt "Driver, this Is Forty-third street Stop nt Dora, what's tho numborT" "Why, I told you this morning, Jack. I declaro I don't romotnbor." "Well, you hnvo tho Invitation with you, of coursoT Jack's tone was n di tto sharp. "Why, Jnck. you know I hnvon't n pocket In this dress, Dear, dear, what shall wo dot" Jnck was beginning to laugh, Tho driver showed signs of Impatience. Jnck opened tha door nnd stopped out "Hurrah, Dora." ho cried, "thero It Is In tho next block." Oho put her head out of tho open door. "Oh, yes, that's HI O coursot" A block, nway, carriages wero dri ving up to n brilliantly itgntcd house. Jnck got In, and thoy rolled up to tho canvas covered passage way. A colored footman opened tho carrlago door nnd holped Dora to alight They pancd up the velvot carpet to tho masslvo doors which swung open as by magic, nnd thoy wore ushered up tho splendid staircase to the dressing rooms, Dora glanced In surprise about her at tho paintings along tho walls, the expensive Hangings, ana ino elaborate appointments on every hand. "They've evidently struck It rich In soma way" sho confided to Jack at the top of tho stairs, ns ho fished her clean gloves nnd fan from tho depths of his pocket In tha dressing roam Dora met two or three of tho Indies whom sho had known that memorable winter with Ann Susan, At tho foot of tho stairs a pompous colored mnn reeolved their cards upon n silver tray, and stepping to tho archway announced! 'Mr and Mrs. John Mlttlson Perkins." Dora gave ono Inst little touch to her hair, drew a long breath nnd swept Into the presence of tho re ceiving party. Ono swift glance nlong tho line nnd sho realized that thero was unions them not ono face that she had ever seen before. She had time only for a frightened gasp An Imposing olderly gentleman was greeting her with stereotyped courtesy "So glad to seo ynu. Mrs, Perkins. Wife, this Is Mrs Perkins. Glad to ice you this evening, Mr Perkins," "Good evening, Mrs Perkins," the resplendent lady with the white hair and elaborate aigrette was saying. Have you met our youngest dnugh- ler? Daughter, this Is Mrs Perklua" This little social device passed (hem expeditiously nlong tho line nnd swept them out Into a back eddy In the crowd, where thoy had a minute to catch their breath. 'Why. wlure's the wedding party T" asked Jack, blankly "Hush," warned Dora. "Don't sny one word to nuy one about a wedding I'll explain Inter Why. good evening, Mrs l-'lti-Wllllnm Have you met my husband T I believe not" And In n minute they were tho cen ter of nn nnlmnted group of Dora's old acquaintances The expression on Jack Perkins' face was a study, and as soon as sho could bring it about with any sort of graco. Dora said sweetly: "I know Conserving the Resources. "I have an Idea," said the man who has u passion for advancing odd the ories, "that wo would all be better for sleeping In beds with glnes rollers. I think It would tend to conserve our mental and physical forces. Scientists tell us that the human body contains a certain amount of electricity. In pro portion to the magnetic qualities pos sessed by the Individual. Now, my theory Is that during the process or sleop this fluid, or whatever It Is, pnssee from tho body, and consequent ly must bo regenerated. That Is why so many people wnko In tho morning with a spirit of lassitude, and have tome diniculty In pulling themselves together Glass, as every ono knows, Is a nonconductor of electricity, and Bleeping in a bed equipped with glass castors might havo tho effect of pro ventlug this forco from leaving the bimy when the brain la inactive, or course-, it's only a theory, but It might bo worth experimenting with."

There wns some thing nlraost dospernte in the hasto with which Bho towod him through tbo crowd and Into tho seclusion of a cor ner behind a screen of palms and fcrnB. "Dora Perkins I" he gasped, "what In tho world Is the matter?" "Hush!" sho whlsperod melodra matically "Now listen. This, Is tho most terrible predicament I was over In. And you must do Just as I toll you or wo shall probably bo arrested. "Arrested?" "Yes; now listen. Tho people In whoso home we nrs now being en tertained at this moment 1 never saw boforo In all my llfo." Jack wns speechless. "I don't aven know tholr nnmo," Dora continued. "Don't know their nnmo? Never snw them before?" Jack found his volco: "Woll, now, Dorn Perkins, I'm going to got out of this Just as fast as I can." "Jack Perkins, you'll do nothing of tho kind," said Dora, sovoroly. "It you do, we shall both be taken oft in a police wagon and disgraced beforo nil theso friends of my Aunt Susan's." So at tho proper hour sho tod him, unresisting, to tho formldlblo lino of people of whose names they were still Ignorant nnd they were run through tho llttlo dovlce contrawlso, "Wo have bad such n datlghtful tlmo." "Thank you. So glad you could bo hero with us." Thoy put. on their things, descended again, tholr carrlago number was ended, thoy got In nnd drove off. "Now that first placo wo stopped was tho right one," snld Dora, "and wo'll tell tho driver to stop thero." "What" gasped Jack, "go through anothor performance llko this? Not on your llfo." "Why, of courcs wo will," ropllcd Dora In that firm, quiet way that was always decisive In tholr little discus sions. "Wo aro all drossod and havo gono to all tho troublo of coming away over horo." Jnck groaned. Thoy wero opposlto tho Fnrlnsworth homo now nnd Dorn called to tho driver to stop. Tho parlor was now brightly lighted. Dora ran up tho stops and rang. Jack followod with out comment Clara hersolf enmo to tho door nnd was ns much surprised to seo thorn as they wero to soo hor. "Why, Dorn Perkins, how glad I am to sco youl Como right In. Good ovo nlng, Mr. Porklns. Why, Dora, It was lo cly of you to como ovor In this In formal way- Tho folks nro going out this avcnlng, and I shall bo Mono. Wo enn hnvo a good, good visit It Is so long slnco I hnvo soon you." Tho father nnd mother and youngor dnughtor camo down nt this point, dressed, ovldcntly, for n pnrty. Thoy woro cordial, Indcod, nnd expressed their deop regret at going out "Just n rccoptlon In tho noxt block, a debut, I believe. Wo shnll bo back "Why. Dora, you suroly romomber tho Van Der Doers?" said Clara, In soma surprise. "Why, let mo seo!" Dora pursed her lips and wrinkled her pretty forehead as If making a. great effort to recall some distant memory. "Yes, I think I did meet them onco." Jnck begnn to laugh. They nil looked at him insurprlso, nnd Dora boenmo very red; the climax, the humor of the situation struck oven Dorn. After n very pleasant evening with Clnrn, they rose to go, "Now, my dear," snld Claw kissing Dora goodby at tho door, "bo sure o como to the wedding next Thursday, won't you? Just a week from to night" "Yes, Indeed." ropllod Dorn henrtlly. "I cortnlnly shall, but I felt that I must sco you onco mnro as Clnrn Fnrlnsworth " "Jack," said Dorn as they rolled nway down the avenue, "there Is Just one thing that mnkes mo forgive you for telling the Farlnswortbs our whole ridiculous performance," "What's that?"

Thoy aro nil shades and combinations with hero nnd thero n black ono thnt scorns rightly placed to glvo distinction to tho general effect Anothor nlry turbnn Is fashioned precisely nftor tha stylo of an Arab's head covering nnd has Its brim swathed In throo shades of chiffon bluo, green nnd lilac. Tho crown Is drnpod with soft silk appllqucd with tiny motifs In dull gold. At tho loft stdo stnnds, In nn upright position, a tnll fenther ornament mado of un curled ostrich feathers In grcon tipped with lilac. Tho feathers aro clipped to n decided point nt tho top, giving tho offect of n dunce's cnp. Such n hat Is Intended for wenr with silk or pongco stroot costumes nnd mny bo mado extremely chic by Introducing In tho trimmings tho tones of thn gown with which It Is worn. Tho novol stylo Is bast suited to n round face, slnco tho cxtromo height of tho trimming 1ms n decided tondoncy to omphailio Inng fenturcs to n pnln ful degrco.

Thoy ecllpso tho crown nnd extend to tho outor odgo of tho big hat and only for tho waving of tho ends tho mntcrlal composing tho frnmo would not bo vlslblo unless ono stooped to look underneath tho drooping brim. This remarkable chaprnu waa aeon on a fashionably gowned damo who ovldcntly Inslstod upon oxnet matchos In color schemes; for hrr splendid gown repeated tho shade of tho hat perfoctly, and was mado redlngotu fashion with a collar loss throat Wo are told that In gay Paris flop py brim lints nro In tho toad. On nc less than fifty of those feathers In trimming. A favored mode of trim ming is a vulvet band encircling thn crown with n long stiff wing or nlgrotto nt .tho sldo. It Is qulto un usual to soo tho Inrgo amount of vel vot that Is being used this season. Velvot Is always a lovely garnish and thoro Is nothing more softening to n stiff hat The broad brig that flops to tho shoulders Is tho model that has tha greatest following, A vory stunning ono seta tho other day was brought from Paris by n returning vis itor. It was of whlto rice straw with wide brim faced with taupe velvet Tho low round crown was simply trimmed with a wroath of full blown rosea In many lovely shades. This samo young woman also brought along another unusual hat, Immense In alia and made of tngal atraw In very dark greon. The shape was almost n bell with tha brim dented in nt one sldo. The trimming was supple ellk of superb light blue tint It wns arranged Into n huge bow nt tho sldo, which rested low on the hat near the face, while at the back It stood defiant and aggressive. Near ly nil the modish shades of green nro a hard llvo dye that might bo men tioned In the class with emerald and Russlnn greens. Another fashionable tint that Is still moro conspicuous than either Is new grass. The bat de scribed above is in tho fashionable bottlo green that Is none too common, but very smart Some of the choice hats designed for midsummer are more than half a yard high. Placed low on tho head they do not, of course, appear so high, but without a brim and with little or no trimming, they are occentrlo look Cretonne Slippers. Cretonne comes to the rescue once more, offering a cheap and pretty ma terial for bedroom slippers. They aro built upon a firm founda tion one of the best pairs of slluper soles that come care being taken not to have them tho least bit too large. No pattern will bo required by tho ordinarily expert seamstress It sho will plant the foot securely on the sole and tit a deop vamp of cre tonne over tha front of the foot, cover ing tha toes and instep. At Its upper edge, across the Instep, a casing conceals the elastic that holds the slipper moro firmly, and on tho center front thero Is placed a small, closo bow of three-Inch ribbon. Across the back section of the leather solo there Is a binding of the same ribbon In narrower width; this Is sewed on by hand ovor tho usual tape-covered edge, Tha variation In cretonne coloring make It .possible to match either tha hanging of the room or tha negligee, which last la even better. ing, to sny the least Tho blnck nnd grny strnwa In this ahnpo look n good denl like stovepipes, and with tha stiff brush-llko ornaments that nro In U8o on them, ono enn think of noth ing than n ploco of stovoplpo rendy to havo the soot nwopt out. Such lints aro worn woll over tho head with no hair showing nt all, ns nre nlso many of tho now draped turbans. Out theso black or dark gray turbans nro not generally becoming; thoy coma over tho face too much and tholr hard, stiff brims nro trying. Quito the smnrtest things shown In plain effects for wear with linen dresses nro tho big sailors with straight or rolling brims mndo of vnrlcgatcd straws. Those aro out in all tho modish tones with no other trimming snvo a chou of silk of a dark shado at tho side. Now and thon n plain band of grosgraln ribbon or velvot will bo tho preferred finish. Again such straws nro garnished with only a quill, nnd as tho colored straw Itself Is qulto sufficient tho hat Is really best when llttlo trimming Is employed. Theso smart sailors nro so dcslrnblo In ' tholr rcspoctlvo shapes that It Is almost Imposslblo for a woman to( poso ono so thnt It will not bo chlo In effect Sho Is almost snfo In placing It on hor head without tho aid of n mirror, for, though sho nr rlvo nt tho wrong position, tho onsem ble will not bo spoiled. From London comes a now model called tho "Itoosavalt" nnd It Is not unllko tha. old Rough Illdor stylo, turnod up on ono sldo and caught with n Inrgo straw button or a small cluster of flowors, Tho shapo Is found In Panama, Milan and In linen crnsh. Another pretty Idcn that has Its origin In tho Hrlttsh Isln Is tho wreathing of largo straw shapes with n slnglo row of giant popples In full bloom Such popples, ns thoy woro scon by tho correspondent, defy nil laws of naturo colorings they nro In blnck, grocn nnd whlto, with con trailing centora. Sometimes such wronths aro veiled with clouds of gauxo, which gives tho desired soften ing offect nnd doos not destroy tho novelty of tho unnatural blossoms. Tha girl with n dozon fancies about her hcadgoar may hnvo a hat that Is domuro, n hat that Is plcturcsquo, n hat that In bltnrro, n hat thnt Is trig or a hat that Is posttlvoly Idiotic In avory detail this season nnd bo In tho stylo every tlmo. Ilocomtngness Is no longer considered, nnd tho girl wear ing tho most grotesquo hnt consldors hersolf nt tho zenith of tho fashion nblo millinery world, quite tho. odd est of color combinations am seen on summer hats. Hluo atraw with orango trimmings, nnd bluo straw with plum color vchot nro among the notlccablo combinations, Scnrlet on bright green Is a bit too blznrro to become popular, though toques or scarlot and bright grcon nro being shown In a number of shapes at n Fifth avonuo shop. Tho charming llttlo straw bonnets with which tho season opened show llttlo sign of being ousted. They nro ns much In evidence as ever for mo toring and ovenlng wenr. Tho models nro generally of turban ordor, tho two styles running nlmost Imperceptibly Into ono another by n tip bnckwnrd or forward on tho head. A hot that Is dccldodly picturesque Is neither bon net nor toque, but Is hold on with rib bon' ties, It la undoubtedly tho In spiration of the seaman's hat, though modified In slzo. Tho brim Is shaped In much the samo manner na the sen man's hood covering, which protects tho head, face nnd shoulders, and In sures nil kinds of comfort to tho wear er when motoring. Another advantago Is that tho atylo la very becoming, dcsplto Its long brim at tho back.

Wo modify their Ideas to suit our own leas oualnt children, nnd find heln In the cleverness of the French moth ers. The princess panel, In Its many Intet pretatlona of a primitive garb, la a prevalent noto among Parisian styles for little ones, and particularly for those of the twelve-year stage. Many truly beautiful bits of embroidery en liven these quaint frocks, while others seem to our eyes merely peculiar In their effort to revive old-time hand work. Shoulder Decoratlona. Trying to many women's figures Is tha kimono style of sleeve. The sleeve less pattern has Its narrowing effect lessened in many lnstancea by an ex tended lino across bodice and sleeves. This can be given by folds of satin thr.t can ba extended to give a broad effoct. Soutache embroidery can be used on the upper part of bodice and sleeves with a suggestion of a bolero. Again, the material may be alaahed on the shoulder line and strapped to gether by velvet or silk, or laced over buttons that form a double row down the sleeves. The Idea Is preserved, but In many of tho best models there Is given an opportunity to display the broad shoul ders of which our American women are so Justly proud. Unseen.
