Every item of fashion reflects the fad of the moment, and sports characteris tics are no more, peculiar to outing togs, for we have them in everything from bathing suits to evening gowns and boudoir clothes. One of the "nifties" ofithese new ideas is appar ent in parasols, which will strike a note of harmony in the h'earta of golf devotees. The wooden handles of some beauti ful sun shades have assumed the shape of golf clubs. "Mashies." "ileeks," "midirons" and "putter," realistic enough to please the most eccentric golfer, are shown, and the coverings of the parasols are of gay ribbons and bright silks. Ratine that several years ago en joyed a season of high popularity is again in favor. It has -ome back with stripes printed on it. and will make lovely Summer sports clothes. The ma terial lias a fashion of holding to the figure and not wrinkling, which has much to do with its joyous welcome: Suits and frocks of ratine of combined plain and figured cloth are shown in attractive models. Pongee holds its own and may be bought in plain or colors. Some of the prettiest of ponsee suits owe much of their effect to stripes of two and some times three contrasting colors. Poplin may be had in plain material and often is combined with striped pongee. There are new organdies and lin geries. Dainty designs of many colors and old-time patterns are to be had. Some of the print organdies approach a, futurist effect; others have bor rowed cretonne designs. Still others have flowers and the usual organdie decorations on a field of stripes. Cretonne is used this year also for sports skirts, although jersey and awning cloth hold enviable places in public favor. ThESMDTWjSTORTi By Mrs F.A'Walker. Xlxjr and Trlxr. TRIxy was a small girl with brown hair and blue eyes, while Nixy was a fox terrier that always frisked at her heels. Nixy slept in Trixy's bed and went with her on the daily gallop from the fort across the plains. But Colonel Waters, Trixy's father, did not like Nixy at all in fact, he thought all dogs a nuisance, and at last declared that Nixy must go and live down in the stables and sleep in the hay loft above the mule stalls. "I hate the sight of that dog." said the Colonel one morning In April as Trixy was about to mount. "I have or dered that tonight he be sent away from the house. Remember, now, Trixy, you are to have him away from the place when I come in to supper." It was a fine Spring afternoon. The prairie, was in bloom, a sea of waving purple over which the shadows chased. Nixy raced and galloped about, but always in sight of the fort, for Trixy was hot allowed far away. Great fun it was. and the pony seemed to enjoy the racing as much as the child and the dog tearing along at its side. About a mile from the fort was a deep hole from which earth had been taken to fill up some places in the bar rack yards. The child did not know of this, and as she tore along home she and the pony plunged right over the side. Just where she fell was the overhanging edge of the bank which had been dug under, and as the pony tumbled over, it looFened the overhang ing ground. Down, the child dropped into a heap and on her dropped a great mass of earth from the bank. Dixie managed to scramble to her feet, but Bhe could not get out of the hole. But the child was completely, cov ered by the earth. Fortunately she was not hurt, only stunned into uncon sciousness, but this also was lucky. Had she' been otherwise she would have been frightened to death, for the loose dirt completely covered her. Now Nixy saw at once what was the trouble. With an easy leap he plunged down after the girl. With lightning movements, he began to scratch the dirt away. Pllck, plick, plick, went his sharp paws. and. the dirt flew about in a steady stream. Plick, plick, plick, and every now and then a short, sharp bark, as if he dere calling the child. P'aster and faster he worked, till hia breath came in gasps. Then out of the dirt came a hand. Nixy gave a bark of delight. But he did not stop. Plick, plick. plick, and he was digging away faster than ever at the loose gravel which covered, her head. In another moment Nixy had We do -developing FREE All Work Guaranteed Complete plant and corps of skilled assist-, ants on the premises. Full Line of Eastman KODAKS - and Supplies.

How he barked in her ear and licked her face. Then he went to work again to dig more. Trixy tried to move, but found herself too weak. It was almost dark now. She wondered If anyone would ever find her. Thenlout on the cool, still evening air came the boom of a gun. There wag trouble at the fort. v "The Colonel's daughter is lost," was the word sent like an arrow through the fort. There was a mounting in hot haste and soon dozens of troopers were out scouring the prairie. Lanterns dot ted the plains and on the night air came the thud of galloping hoofs and the call of the men shouting to each other. Nixy leaped to the top of the cliff. Sharp and. loud he sent a loud bark, trembling on the breeze, then a long howl i that seemed to skim over the ground. "That is Nixy's bark." called in the Colonel, in his Joy, reining in his rac ing horse and turning toward the hole. Nixy saw him coming and leaped to meet him, then dashed back to the hole. Down at the bottom, with her head Just dear of the dirt, lay Trlxle, smilr ing. but pale. "It was Nixy that saved me. papa, said Trixy as the men bore her toward the fort, and the dog bounced about at their heels. "He dug me out or I would have died. Can't I keep him now forever and ever It is needless to say that Nixy was the guest or honor ever afterward in the Colonel's home, where he and Trixv lived happily for many long, long years.

THE woman from across the street sat down in the rocker on her efficient and artistic curtain maker in the United States. Her work is a branch of interior decorating and she works in conjunction with her hus band, who is also an interior decora tor, but whose work is confined to painting, frescoing and paperhanging rather than to draperies. ' Madame Saubiac began her training as interior , decorator in a French school before coining to the United States. There she learned many dif ferent kinds of embroidery, the making of laces of various sorts and also the weaving of tapestry. She studied these arts with no idea of ever putting them to a practical use, but rather because of her love of the work. She was later married to an interior deco rator and eventually drifted into em ploying her talent as his assistant. At length she began the serious study of her art with a view to becom ing an expert in one line. She spent much time in the workrooms of uphol stering and drapery houses, becoming familiar with various textiles and the methods used in making them up. She visited every display where tapestries or draperies were shown and learned all that could be acquired from obser vation upon her chosen subject. At length she was permitted to do her first practical work. The curtain maker must necessarily follow the lead of the decorator and consequently some knowledge of other forms of interior decorating is neces sary for success. When all painting and frescoing is done and the carpets have been laid, the curtain maker en ters and must choose draperies that are in harmony with the general sur roundings, i Thus while a certain amount of originality is necessary, the greatest demand 'a for an artistic in stinct of sufficient magnitude to select the materials that will lend themselves II ,11 wneS KID FITTING K- Silk gloves Women acquainted with Fownes quality in ALL kinds of gloves, are demanding Fownes silk gloves, with reason.

Madame Saubls proved to possess both the instinct and the originality and not only was her first work a suc cess, but all since that time has been equally so. She has now established headquarters where a score of women are employed in doing the actual weaving and stitching. These women Madame Saubiac has trained herself. To each she has taught one line of the curtain making art. Each is confined to a given period or to a certain coun try. Some of the women make lace for odd-shaped windows, others work upon lampshades. But Madame Sau biac's is the hand and brain that guides them all. The same harmony and expert good taste that characterizes all of the homes where Madame Saubiac has su perintended the decorating is ito be found in the establishment where her workrooms are located. No periods, countries or colors are allowed to con flict even during the busiest working hours. Japanese work is done in an Oriental room, with Oriental hangings and Oriental atmosphere; Italy, Rus sia and Spain each has Its separate workrooms, with hangings and sur roundings to match. Madame Saubiac has collected an extensive library on the subject of in terior decoration and has added ma terially to the literature of the world on the subject In her own suggestions.
