CORN COLORED SATIN
This chic toilette for evening wear
is fashioned from corn-colored satin
souple and ecrue lace with trimmings
of yellow roses. The bodice consists
of a drapery of satin combined with
the lace, the later used for the cor
sage portions and falls over the arms.
The satin skirt is very full about the
waist, the fullness drawn down close
ly into the first of three lace ruffles
or flounces which form the lower half
of the skirt. The line of these ruffles
rises at the left side producing the
effect of being caught up by the long
garland of roses which reaches from
the bodice drapery to the top ruffle
of the series.

Children as a rule are interested In
chickens, especially, the wee peeps"
that have just come out of the shell.
And what better fun for youngster?
than the care of a flock? The crowing
roosters.' cackling hens and sprightly
chicks are attractive, and the gath
ering of eggs from their own flock and
taking them to mother is joy for any
boy or girl. Poultry care is a nature
study and for that reason is. good for
the young folks. It is good for any
child who can do so to have a few for
their very own. The boy in the pic

Caps For the Doll.
When a doll's hair has been worn
away around her forehead so that it is
no longer pretty it is- a good P'an to
put a narrow band of velvet or satiD
ribbon around the forehead to conceal
the worn parts. The ends are fastened
In the back with a little pin. The hair
is puffed above this and jnade up in a
kind of knot on the back of the head.
If the doll's hair has been entirely
spoiled she will have to wear caps.
Justnow it is very fashionable to have
a number of these caps, some for morn
ing and some for evening wear. The
morning caps are called boudoir caps,
and those meant for evening wear are
called theater caps. The caps are made
of fine white material, net or chiffou.
and they are exactly like the caps thai
real people are now wearing. There
is a full crown and a ruffle of lace
around the face. Small flowers and
little bows of ribbon are used to deco
rate the caps. They, may also be made
of gold brocade or gold gauze over a
colored silk lining. . . , .

arms with any one of a couple. This
compels the third player to leave his

To make the game most interesting
there should be constant changes, and
one player should not try to see how
long he can run uncaught, but should
lock arms with some one as soon as
possible.

The Flimsy -Part
of It
By AMELIA GILES
A party ot youngsters were at the
seashoi-e. The men were graceless
scamps and the girls were as full of
mischief as fillies not broken to har
ness. Two of the party were "spoons."
The word spoons is of indefinite
meaning Possibly some future arch
aeologist digging down into the ruins
of an American city may translate It.
"A word invented to express an un
conventional condition among two very
young persons of opposite sex who are
too young to think of anything serious
ly, especially matrimony, but who are
attracted by each other."
Any way. Dolly Tinkham and Billy
Woods were spoons and known to be
such by the rest of the party. . Conse
quently they were a target for all
sorts of Jokes, pranks and innuendoes
from their friends. These darts were
not venomous, neither were they witty.
They were principally noted for
their senselessness. They were taken
in a mater of fact way by the young
lovers, but not seriously. No amount
of raillery could prevent Billy from
putting his arm around Dolly, pretend
ing that he was unconscious of being
observed, or holding her hand under
a lap robe when they were riding.
One day one of the young men came
to Dolly with a bottle corked and seat
ed with her address pasted on it, tell
ing her that he had picked it up when
out boating. She broke the bottle and
drew forth a paper on which was writ
ten:
I have long loved you, but It Is Impossi
ble for me to woo you. Learning that you
are staying at B., I have sailed out In a
boat past the beach and have taken this
means to advise you of my love. Any
other way might lead to my detection.
This way is perfectly safe. The reasons
why it is forbidden for me to woo you are
secret.
Did you find it on the beach, hon
est?" asked Dolly, looking up Inno
cently. "Honest"
She dropped her eyes to the floor.
Evidently she was affected by this un
known lover who was worshiping her
from a distance. It did not occur to
her that If he was forbidden to woo
her he had better not have commenced
to do so. -
"Going to tell Billy about it?" asked
the pretended finder of the bottle.
"I don't know."
The rascal did not wait for her to
make up her mind about the matter.
He told Billy himself. The same aft
ernoon when Billy met Dolly on the
beach he looked out at the ocean. Dol
ly wilted. That evening Dolly was sit
ting on the beach doleful. It is singu
lar that when a girl gets one lover she
Is surpassingly happy. Two invaria
bly make her miserable. Billy passed
on, but Dolly didn t call him. She
was sure he was miffed about this new
unknown lover. He would vex her with
questions and she didn't wish to be
questioned. '
Besides she wasn't quite sure she
loved Billy after all. Billy was ordi
nary flesh and blood, the other fellow,
created by her imagination, was a pa
thetic looking, melancholy chap with
curly locks hanging over an alabaster
forehead and wearing a Byronic col
lar.
But Billy, seeing that the flag of in
vltation was not thrown out, concluded
to probe the matter without an invi
tation. "What's this story about this fellow
that's tossin bottles overboard with
love letters in 'em?"
"He isn't a fellow at alL"
'IWhat is he?"
"A noble, good man."
"What you going to do about him?'
"Nothing."
"What you going to do about me?"
"I haven't done anything, and I
haven't any idea of doing anything.1
"But you're going to wait for the
rooster in the bottle to come?"
"I didn't say that"
"What's he say in his letter?"
"Oh, he says he loves me. but can't
woo me.
Well, then, what's the use of his
saying It?"
I don't know. I suppose it s a re
lief to him."
"Is he going to keep on being reliev
ed this way?"
'1 don't know."
"Well, Doll, since he's stepped in
and taken possession of the field I'm
out of it Good evening."
He sailed away with his nose In the
air.
The next day Tom Wilmarth, who
had made up the first bottle, came to
Dolly with a second. It contained! a
note telling her that her, unknown
lover would" be on the beach the next
day. He would wear a red ribbon In
his buttonhole red in toke of bis
bleeding heart ;
"See here. Johnny," spoke up one of
the older gis!s, who was, standing
near, "this has - gone far enough
Doll, he's been fooling you. He has
written these notes and put them In
the bottles.' Don't you see that the
paper bearing your name on the out
side hasn't been wet?"
- Dolly looked half dazed from the
girl to the bottle, then at the scamp
Who bad joked her. Then she got up
and went away.
The next morning the spoons made
np. It wasn't ah important episode in
their lives, but It might have been.
They now have six children, and the
flimsy romance of youth has turned
Into the great absorbing romance of
family life.
