MARIAN, secure and comfortable among her cushions, watched Chat loner's moonlit figure as he stabbed the water idly with his paddle, and let the canoe travel gently with the cur rent They had prolonged their chat on the hotel veranda until after 10 o'clock, talking of many things of the road city they had left behind, Its frenzied race for immaterial things, its dearth of life's more genuine values. Today Challoner had avoided the sub- H nrakjv iff,, SmWSLmWBBSBSmW Mrs. George TGerfhgery Svce& jyadrvn JPecewtjy ject of his wife. Marian, eager to know more of her, had reirainea, nowever, from directing the current of conversa tion upon her, and satisfied herself with the brief mention of her which Chal loner had made several days before. This she knew: that the Challoners were entirely Incompatible; they cared for different things; nursed different ideals. And she knew that the wife, domineering in her pursuit of what she wanted, was hurrying her husband on into directions he would gladly have avoided, had his stern sense of duty not kept him in- harness, and as obedi ent as possible to the whim and dicta tion of his determined mate. As the thought of these matters wove through Marian's mind, she could not help pitying her companion. Here was martyrdom. Attached to the right woman, she could not help fancying, he might have achieved supreme happi ness in life, so simple were his ambl- -i - -1 J OThnloamA h!i ideals. She saw in him a man who! was deliberately sacrificing his soul upon the altars of material quests for the sake of a wife who did not even appreciate or understand what he was giving up in order to remain fighting in this alien arena. Challoner's Bpeaklng voice was rough and low. As he recited some of his favorite poems Marian listened like one floating in the meshes of a dream. The things he recited stirred her to invaria ble response. Again and again she thrilled with a weird sense of satis faction. She was stirred and stimulated. Again, lines and passages flowed like narcotics Into her veins. This singular man, patent lawyer though he was, knew the English poets better than any man Marian had ever known. He even recited a liquid lyric from the French, a sonorous something from the German, both unintelligible to Marian, save in the rhythm of their sounds. The moon slipped behind a bank of clouds, and suddenly the river and ca- An Odd New Covert Cloth Suit, Which Takes Into Account That the Color of the Covert Cloth Often Needs a Relieving Touch.

He rolled up his coat and Ma rian's wrap and hurled them ashore. "I can't swim," Marian managed to reply wltn cnattering ieem. "Don't be afraid," answered the man.

It is a strange fact that America has not taken up this fashion ae speedily now as it did once befure. Years ago, when covert cloth was at the top of style, the American women could not get enough of it. It was -the darling of their hearts. Probably sev eral thousand coats of it were worn; short fitted coats that stopped at the hips and were made with all the old time Impedimenta; darts and seams ga lore. These were covered by stitched straps which often ended in embroid ered arrow heads of self-colored floss. Beneath the Jacket was worn a flaring, fitted skirt of dark blue serge or broadcloth. Thus appareled, a woman was considered admirably dressed. And with the passing of this costume passed the short, separate coat. And here it Is again after more than a decade. And once more, we think it quite smart. But the new variety is not tight fitting as was Its predecessor. It swings loose from the shoulders, and, entirely hides the waistline, giving. In many cases, that slightly stoop ahouldered look to the woman who wears it, that fashion has not only tol erated, but approved, during the last two years. And with it so the wheel of fashion turns always In the same direction goes a short skirt of corbeau blue gab ardine. The blouse Is very simply made of white linen with one of the new rolling collars of turquoise blue linen covered with sheer white organ die finished with a picot edge. The loose cravat is of black taffeta and the deep turnover cuffs, which are of the shirt material, show beneath the plain coat sleeve, and are held to gether by large turquoise link buttons set In quoits of dull gold. Such Is the fashionable costume pre sented over here by many women who may, or may not, be foreshadowing an Autumn style. One approves of it. It Is sensible, comfortable and generally becoming. I have already seen dashing suits of covert cloth; narrow short skirt and long loose coat, the kind that Parle has made popular this month. The only trimming used was bullet buttons of dull silver. This coat, which has already been de scribed, a kind of army overcoat with a broad belt, full skirts and long rag Ian sleeves, may be worn, later, as a top wrap to a short skirt of blue serge, but, at the present moment it carries a skirt of Its own, and ranks next In popularity to the suit of dark blue. There are many women to whom it will appeal, because of its neutral color. It stands the strain of everyday service of train, business or automobil- t - t fa, tnnm nraisA worth v man ner than does dark blue or black, the two colors which every woman consid ers when the season demands a change of raiment. Covert cloth is not an attractive ma terial or color to many minds; if one is Inclined to strong tints then its neu trality is distasteful, but, when a cer tain measure of economy demands an Autumn suit that does not show the touch of every foreign object, there are ways to splash color against this tan surface, and make it quite worth wTiile. That art of compromising of not rejecting or accepting the thing in whole should be studied by every woman who has the leisure to do so. It does not make the question of dress more simple for her, as some eeem to think, for Intelligent compromise is always more difficult and time-taking than the habit of instantaneous 'yes' and 'no'; but it saves the purse a strain and gives a woman variety in her ap parel. The quickest-way to give character to the neutrality of covert cloth is to take advantage of the fashion for col ored collars and use it as the reason for a bit of brilliancy just where It Is most needed; below the chin. Every woman should realize that she can wear almost any color she chooses if below the face, and directly against it, she wears a color that is becoming. If white makes her more attractive, then the remedy lies easily at hand for fashion allows her today to overlay herself with white from the bust to However, there are women, to whom none of the various shades of white are becoming; they needvividness, and here comes one's chance to put a tone of blue or green or red on the coat. Tf well chosen, it makes the impossi ble admirable. APRICOT DAIXTIES.

Add it by degrees to the apricot pulp and directly it is thor oughly mixed fill a bomb-shaped ice mold with It and stand on ice for five or six hours. Pickled Apricots. Wash the apricots and put them in brine for a week. Then wash and dry them and weigh them. To every two pounds of fruit use a quart of vinegar, boil the vinegar with spices and strain it over the fruit which has been put in a jar. To a gallon of vinegar use half an ounce each of whole pepper, with mustard seed, and cloves and a quarter of an ounce of sliced gin ger and a teaspoonful of salt. Let the apricots stand in the vinegar over night and then reheat the vinegar, pour it back on the apricots and let stand un til the next day. Repeat the heating process. Then add enough freshly boiled vinegar to cover the fruit and seal it. 1o-Night The Shoemaker Rat. ONE day a rat gnawed his way into a pantry, and after he had. eaten all he wanted he grew bold and went into the kitchen. There the cook saw him and chased him with a broom, but, not being able to hit him as he ran out of the door, nii.ir.ii lit) a nair of shoes that were standing near and threw them after htm. The rat picked them up and put them on. On his way home he met a cat. "What have you on your leei; he asked the rat. "Can you not see, my dear Tom? said the rat- "They are shoes. 1 am a shoemaker, and or course must wear my own products. "Make me a pair," said the cat, "and I will spare your life." v, wall " rnlied the rat. "but first you must bring me some leather." So the cat ran away and brought back two hides. ' When the rat saw the amount of leather he was struck with an idea. "My dear Tom," he said, "I can make you a suit of clothes and a pair nf o-invoK as wfill as the shoes, and you will be the envy of all the other cats." Tom was deligntea ana 101a uie in to hurry and make the outfit. The wise rat first made the gloves and covered Tom's sharp claws. Then he made the snoes ior ine ninu j.eL, and when he had that done he felt safe. "Now you must wait, he said, un til T iret something with which I can fasten the coat." He ran away and returned with some long, sharp thorns. Next the rat put the leather around Tom's body and drew it tight, fasten ing it with a thorn which he pushed so that the sharp point pricked Tom. "What are you doing?" asked Tom, angry at being hurt, but he could not move, the leather costume was so sun fint hiir h prnhtlAd at the rat with his mouth and caught him by the tail. The rat ran, leaving his tail in Tom's mouth. "I'll know you, Tom called alter lim; "when I am out of this suit I will atch you and eat you." The rat had not thought of that and .e wondered what he should do, but le was a wise old fellow, and when he eached home he called all his broth rs and sisters and cousins and aunts about him. f "I met a rat to-day, he said, -wno had been to the city, where all of the styles are new, and he told me that all the city rats are having their tails ut oft, so l nau mine auiie. "If you want to be In style," he told them, "you must have your tails like mine." "Does it hurt?" asked one.

The rats all agreed and ran away to get the cheese, and while they were gone the wise rat ran for a chopping knife. Soon he had the tails cut and a goodly store of cheese. "Now," he said to himself, "Tom will never know me from the other rats." He kept his eyes open for Tom, who u. i-olloH his fripnrtd tn heln him out of his suit, and told them to watch for a rat without a tall. But when they w all the tailless rats they gave up looking for the one who had put Tom Into the suit of leather, and Tom, not liking to hunt any too well, gave it uo also. "But the next time I meet a rat," said Tom, "I will eat him, no matter whether he has a tail or not." (Copyrlsht, 1914. by the McClure Newspaper Syndicate. New Tjjrk City.)
