By AG5 intS.
Star ia rurumtmmt rtetsrr.
There has never been a period in
the world's history, npt even the
wonderful Italian Renaissance, whose
influence has been so enduring, so
far reaching, fo immeasurably above
all others as the time of the glory of
Greece.
We borrow from Spain, from Italy,
from Egypt, from the mid-Victorians,
the Renaissance, from Turkey and
China, but always we return to our
old and best love, Greece.
This coming spring, I think, we
are to see Spanish and mid-Victorian j
elaborateness and bouffancy pale out
and disappear before the slim and
austere beauty of the Greek sil
houette. The majority of the even
ing frocks for Southern wear are
Greek in tendency, as are many of
the elaborate negligees.
In the sketch is a new evening!
dress that is purely and unmistakably
Greek. There is absolutely no trim
ming, nothing to mar or detract from
the perfect grace of the lines of the
drapery. It is of cream white crepe, !
after the Fj-ench mode, and girdled
with a narrow belt of jet and ivory
disks.
There is one very serious disad
vantage, in the G-eek influence, it
may not be attempted save by the
master hand. The drapery so be
gsilingly and deceitfully simple may
be utterly ruined by one false touch.
But he who runs may read its history
and feel the charm of this frock.

CHAPTER 304
HOW MADGE MANAGED TO
MANAGE THE SITUATION.
It was a bit of work for a min
ute or two for Alfred Durkee and
me to carry bis mother up to her
room. We laid her upon the bed,
whose thrown-back bed clothing
and rumpled pillow showed that
she had been in It before making
her nocturnal journey down the
stairs. My little neighbor had
only a light kimono thrown over
her nightdress, while her Dare
feet were thrust into dainty, high
heeled slippers of the kind she
always affects.
"Look at those," Alfred groan
ed in masculine' exasperation.
"no wonder she stumbled. And
whatever took her down those
stairs? What shall I bring you?
Some water? And the doctor "
"The water, please, and DicKy
Has telephoned for Dr. Gibson."
I was straightening the little wo
man's feet, and I saw in a mo
ment the cause of her swooning.
One foot and ankle were already
swollen nearly double their size.
She evidently had tripped upon
her high heels, tried to save her
self and her foot had been twist
ed under her. Whether or not
there were broken bones or sim
ply a nasty sprain. 1, of course,
could not tell until a physician
came;. Indeed, had no time to de
termine. Before Alfred returned with
the Water I had straightened her
body comfortably in bed, and
was searching her dressing table
for the powerful smelling salts I
knew she kept there. I placed
them beneath her nostrils, and
when Alfred returned man-like
with a trail of water dripping
over himself and the rug I bade
him chafe her hands while.
dashed the water into her face.
A Different Dicky.
As we worked we heard the
door open and close downstairs.
In another moment Dirky came
hurriedly into the room.
"What can I do?" he asked
quietly, all the captiousness evi
dently suppressed or eliminated.
"Take my place here just a
minute." I said. I oDened my
mouth to tell him how to sprinkle
the water in Mrs. Durkee's face
reflected that a veteran of the
army ought to know something
about first aid. regretted my cau
tion when 1 saw him throwing
the water with such v'gor as to
saturate my little friend's night
dress.
Inside the minute I had named
I was back with a pungent restor
ative which I set on a chair by
the bedside, ready to administer
it the first second I saw that Mrs.
Durkee was able to swallow. Then
1 took the water basin from
Dicky's hands.
"Do you think you could find
the coffee things in the kitchen?"
T asked, remembering his justi
fiable pride in his coffee making.
"We shall need some hot. strong
coffee here quicklv. And what
did Dr. Gibson say?"
"He'll be hero as soon as he
can get out his car and run over.
As for the coffee, I've helped Air
root it out too often over here not
to know where it is. I'll have
some for you pronto."
The patient Commands.
"Turn on the hot water heaN
er." I called after him as he hur
ried toward tho stairs. "We'll
need hot water for hot water haKs
as soon as you can get it ready."
"All right. Leave it to your
.uncle." he called back cheerily,
and I think the tone did more to
compose Alfred Durkee than any
thing else could have done. Al
fred loves his mother dearly, and
I saw that this seizure of hers
had done something months of ac
tive campaigning had not achiev
ed, made him panic-stricken as a
nervous schoolgirl.
The hand chafing and the cold
water kept up a minute or two
longer and brought back my lit
tle friend to consciousness. She
moaned with' pain as she opened
her eyes, and then In the next sec
ond shivered.
"So cold," she murmured, and
I saw that something must be
done immediately about the soak
ed night dress.
"Drink this." I commanded,
putting the pungent restorative to
her lips.
"Oh, I can't!" she said plain
tively. "You must." I Returned with
decision, and by sheer fores o:
will I put it down hr. Then l
turned to Alfred. "Bring me a
pair of scissors and that heavy
sweater of your mother's." I said.
"Oh! What are you going to
do?" she asked as he hurried to
the bedside with the article for
which I had asked.
"I'll make Dicky buy you a new
one," I said cheerfully, "because
he soaked this one throwing- wa
ter on you. But I've got to get
this wet night dress off yon. and
this is the only way to do it."
I had the scissors at the neck
of the gown when she pusht-J my
hand away Indignantly. "This
is one of my best gowns. I could
n't buy one like it again in these
shoddy times. You shan't touch
it."
I felt like shaking her. but l
saw that carrying my point would
only mean a scene which would
agitate lur. therefore with a
shrug of my shoulders I turned
to Alfred.
"Bring me some heavy Turk
ish towels." I said "I'll stutt
them under the soaked portions
of the gown. That will ii;ft to
do until the doctor comes."

Try Grandmother' Old Favorite
Iteciix of Sajfe Ta
and Sulphur
Almost every one knows that
Sage Tea and Sulphur, properly
compounded, brings back the na
tural color and lustre to the hair
when faded, streaked or gray.
Years ago, the only way to get
this mixture was to make it at
home, which is mussy and trou
blesome. Nowadays, by asking at
any drug store for "Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound." you will
get a large bottle of this famous
old recipe, improved by the addi
tion of other ingredients, at a
small cost.
Don't stay gray! Try it! No
one can possibly tell that yon
darkened your hair, as it does it
so naturally and evenly. You
dampen a sponge or soft brush
with it and draw this through
your hair, taking one small
strand at a time; by morning the
gray hair disappears, and after
another application or two your
hair becomes beautifully dark,
glossy and attractive. Adv.
