J By OLIVE HILL J- Copyright, 2M7, by Hamilton lfusk, TIIEItB could here been nothing f rentier and more springlike I than Mine, Louise's Imported bonnet snd hats, which had just arrived front Paris end were being unpacked amid the admiring exclama tlons of the employees of her establish aient stms. Louise was a fsablonabls uillll Dor. Her models came direct from raris, and her loysl patrons believed that the skillful fingers of ber work women often Improved upon the orlgl nals, but If you wanted bargain or If your purse was a limited one Muie. Louise's establishment wss tho lnt place to visit t "You1 say I ask too inocbe," inadawe ssld one day to a cuatomer, "but made molaello should remember It Is not ee velvet nor to ribbons nor te plume what make xe coat. It Is se cachet, te style, you can find nowhere else In te city. If msdemolvelle can get dat cheap, eh bltra, so much ce bettalre for hor." I Among the Importations which were not to ue maae vimidio to tne puuuc eye natll the week before Eaater was one superlatively charming hat. It was of cream point lace, with a kind of veiled sueeeNtlon of the teuder green of spring verdure, and was trimmed with a drooping spray of exquUlte lilacs. It wss bat for a beautiful young blond "Ah, but Is petite Ttoee Lambert moat buy dat bat!" madams exclaim ed, claxptng her bunds snd gaxlng with adoring eye at the bat "Vld ber skin ao white snd roue, ber eyes like te blue sky and ber smiling mouth sho vlll be ebsrmlngr "Ah, yes, sod ber father la rich, rich," said Mlaa Ktoll, the forewoman, "and ho deoSea ber nothing! Ton will not ssk lee than thirty for this bat mads me 7" "Forty dollars!" madamo said deel slvely. "It coat me ten In Paris, and It was a bsraaln. Look! Real lace and te floworo! If we make not a lee tie profit on our confections, bow vlll te buslneaa keep up? I-a petite Lambert vlll give te price, and ahe vlll be te grand advertisement for te style. Or ders vlll come In from te light snd te dark, from to ugly snd to pretty. She vlll look so lovely dat (ley vlll all tlnk It Is to bat dat makes beautiful." Among tho workwomen who were admiring the new bat was one to whom It would have, been quite as becoming as to tho yoing lady for whom It was Intended. Cabrllle do Kernlon had the sumo rose leaf skin and wary golden hair, though her eye were dark gray Instead of blc, and ber eyebrows and lashes were nearly black. Sho was a beautiful girl and a De Kernlon with all the stalely grace of ber decayed srlstocratlc line. Hut what use bad a poor working girl for aristocratic ancestry? 8uch questions as that many of the Creoles of Louisiana have put aside In their praiseworthy efforts to make a bare living. The affairs of the De Kernlons had gone from bad to worse until the last descendant of the line had gone to work for mougcr wages to keep herself and her widowed mother from starv ing. Certainly they were quite near star vation for a long time before Mme. de Kernlon could make up her mind to consent to Gabrlelle seeking outside employment. The work at home would be well enough, for the girl would not be exposed to the contamination of coarse associates,, but such work could not be found, and poverty Is a peremp tory master who does not always leave It to one to docldo where he shall make SHH GAZED AT THB FAMOUS SPRINO HAT, his bread, but pushes him Into strange byways to seek It The girl herself, knowing nothing of the loss of wealth and grandeur that her mother lamented, was fairly con tent with her humble lot. Her ances tors had transmitted to her a certain statellness of figure and manner, but Ibe was at heart a simple minded girl, doing her work conscientiously and with no higher ambition than to excel In It. OdDnene There were changes even In her mo notonous life, from Monday morning nntll Saturday evening sho wss Ga brlolle, a bard worked girl, whom m dame scolded and Miss Stoll worried and the customers ordered to do this and that, to pull to pieces and to con struct with a complete disregard of the possibility that fingers which were flesh and blood like their own might grow weary, Hut on Sundays behold Mile, de Ker nlon, clad iu her best, walking grace fully to church with her mother and exchanging nods, smiles and courteous greeting with the Creole aristocracy of the "old quarter." Most of her friends were ss poor as' she, but no poverty or humble toll could Impair the refinement of manner snd courtly ad dress which they bad Inherited, with tbclr names, from their French ances tors. Gabrlelle cared nothing for past grandeurs and aristocratic ancestry, but she would have liked money enough to dress prettily. She bad ex cellent taste, and tbst taste was sf- "HOW DABK YOU ACCUHR MI DAUOBTXB OF THKT f " fronted by her threadbare dresses and well worn gloves and shoes. "Ah!" she said to herself as she gated st the famous spring bat "This lace is Just like mamma's old point lace scarf which she gave me. No old lace Is handsomer than that Mine Is finer and some ragged, but It looks the same. Then my friend Christine Beaupre makes lilac sprsys like these, now funny I And Mme. Louise believes the hat strictly Parisian." She smiled at herself in the mirror opposite. Gabrlelle was pretty and was fully a war of the fact And the hat was such a beauty. Several timet she caught herself looking at It and when MUs Lambert, summoned by madame, arrived, Gabrlelle, to her delight was selected to try It on and make altera tions If any were needed. Of course Miss Lambert bought' the bat When did the astute Mme. Louise fall in dis posing of her "confections" according to her plans? There was a slight alter ation to be made In some of the loop ing!), which was Intrusted to Gabrl elle's deft fingers. "Be sure, madame, to send It to me 8aturday,M Miss Lsmbert said as she was leaving. "Don't allow your press of work to crowd my hot out of your mind." "But certainly not!" madame scream ed, gesticulating a vehement denial. "To forget! Ah, dat would be impos sible! Mees Hose, you vlll sharm all eyes on Easter day, and It te young demoiselles vould give one t'ousand dollar dey could not get a hat like yours in te city. It Is unique, shorm lng, as it is te most sharmlng young lady In te city who vlll lend grace to It" Miss Lambert smiled and bowed at the compliment. It was really pleas ant to know that she was the owner of something not attainable by ber thousand and one dear friends. On Sautrday there was such a rush of custom at Mme. Louise's that Ga brlelle did not have time even to get her dinner. About noon Miss Stoll had been taken III and was obliged to go home. It wss very unfortunate, tor it threw a heavier burden of duty upon the rest, who were already greatly overworked. During the rest of the day the shop was in great confusion. "Tlens!" cried madame in good French, Just as the shop was about to be closed, and she clapped her hands to her forehead as If to restrain from wandering the few ideas her head still contained. "I believe I have lost my mind In all this uproar. Here Is Mme. Ernest Lauve's bonnet and she lives In the French quarter, miles from here! Galylelle, It Is near the Rue D., where you live. Take the bonnet to her, and then you can go home, since by that time' It will be dark, and you have had no dinner." Poor Gabrlelle, exhausted and hun gry, was only too glad of an errand that, would release her from the shop even a few minutes earlier than the others. When she reached home after dark she was too tired even to think of Easter. Mme. Louise . bustled , hither and thither, for there were many hats and bonnets to be delivered to her cus tomers that evening. "And Mile. Lambert's hat!" she cried. "You must take it to her, Tlc tolre, and tell her we were too busy to send It before." Vlctolre went to get the hat She returned after several minutes' ab sence with n troubled face. "Madame, the hat is not there. Ga brlelle made the alterations this after noon. Did you not send It by her?" "No!" madame cried angrily. "She took Mme. Lauve'B hat You are all crazy. You can find nothing unless It is under your noso. Get that hat im mediately! Do you hear? Immedi ately!" The frightened workwoman ran here and there, pulling down boxes and fer reting In every corner of the large room. Nine o'clock struck, snl the missing bit was sot found. But all agreed that Gabrlelle was the last person seen with It It was then too late to take further steps, and madame, verfa tlgued and nervous, became hysterical and was borne to bed crying that ber establishment was ruined, that s theft bad been committed, that ber custom ers would lose their confidence In her and that she could never face them again. But she awakened on Easter morning with her senses restored and with a well formed resolution in her mind. Since Gabrlelle was the last person seen with the hat no doubt the care less girl bad stowed It sway some where and forgotten to mention It She would go to the French quarter and And out from Gabrlelle where the bat was. There would still be time to get It and send it to Miss Lambert before she was ready for church. . Little did Gabrlelle, who was making ber simple toilet and adjusting ber beautiful bat on ber sunny balr, dream of the fate which was descending upon ber. She paused a minute when she beard a well known voice in the front room addressing ber mother impera tlvely In French. "I am Mme. Louise. I wish to see your daughter Gabrlelle Immediately.' Gabrlelle hastened to the room. Ma dame sprang from ber seat as she en tered with a loud cry. "She has the bat! Ah, you wretched thief, bow did you dare do this? Did you expect to wear it and get off and not be detected? Give me my bat!" She snatched the hat from the bead of the astounded girt "I have a great mind to call the po lice and send you to Jail. If it were not for the disgrace to my establish ment I would do it this minute. Oh. what a bold and Impudent thief!" "She calls me a thief!" cried Gabrl elle, pale, trembling and throwing ber arms around ber mother as if for pro tection. "She says I stole this bat Mamma, you know I made it of your old lace scarf." , "Are you mad,, madame?" Mme. de Kernlon said indignantly. "How dare you accuse my daughter of theft? I gave ber the lace, and she made the hat" Madame uttered a scornful laugh and cast a contemptuous glance around the poorly furnished room. "Ah, then, you are the princess In disguise! You are lodged thus," with s sweep of the hand, "and yon own cost ly point lace, and your daughter does me the honor to work for mt and to approprlato my property. Bah!, No more of this! My handsomest hat which the girl altered, is missing. I come here. I find it on ber bead. I can swear to my property. If you both bad your deserts you would be lodged In Jail. Thank me that yon are not. And, Gabrlelle, never show your face in my establishment again!" She swept away, leaving mother anl daughter as much astonished as en raged. When madame reached home she dis patched a special messenger with the bat to Miss Lambert and heard noth ing more of It that day. But early next morning she was surprised by the en trance of the young lady. "What did you mean, madame, by sending me two bats?" Mtss Lambert asked. "And yon deceived me by say ing that mine was the only one in the "get that bat rmnmiATKLTl do toc HKAB?" city. They are as much alike as two peas. Miss Stoll brought me one on Saturday noon. She said she was ill and was going home, and, as she lives only a short distance from us, she was kind enough to leave my hat on her way, But madame, It was a shame in you to deceive me!" Mme. Louise gasped for breath. Her explanation was not clear, but it satis fied Miss Lambert that, a cruel injus tice had been done to an innocent girl. "So you were the actual thief, ma dame I" she laughed. "Why, they could arrest you for robbing them. Better send the girl's hat back to her and eat a little humble pie." The humble pie was a bitter morsel to Mme. Louise, .but as Gabrlelle posi tively refused to return to her estab lishment they never met again. Cir cumstances since then have changed for tho better with Gabrlelle, but to this day she remembers the humllla- FAT FOLKS O NED OLLAR invejted in a bottle of these wonderful, harmless fat reducing tablets Sad in 30 daya you will be a normal, well-formed person again.
