On the streets of Medford we now observe girls and women
clothed in straggling yards of figured material, sweeping the
dust from the sidewalk and when a gust of wind comes' along,
billowing like a couple of cat-boat sails to show they are con
structed on the trouscr pattern; ' '
The latest Paris hats are'f'lat discs which are worn' Squarely
over the right eye. They have about the same1 effect as the
blinders worn by old Dobbin, for they cut off half of those

bestoW upon favored nflTriirersJ. 1 ";." " '
v But the new ' hatg ; ore termed "very 'chic," so the ladies
like them, even though they 'reduce vision fifty per cent. Those
who wear the new models are said to he prepared to carry on
lull flirtations 'with their left eyes. ' .
j" I "HE new hats feature discs as flat as phonograph records,
j The disc, which is made of velvet, a new chenille knitting
or knitted-silk ls'wo'rn oif the right side of the head, almost
completely obscuring that side of the face. It is held on by a
ribbbn which goes around the head and ties behind the left ear.
.The disc dr plate hat,' as" its sponsor calls' it, is hot designed
;to shield its Wearer from 'sun 'or rain, for it leaves the entire
left side of the head uncovered. Most of the now hats, indeed,
are designed for io'ok's father than for protection from the
elements. "'-' ') - ' j ' ' . "' ' ' ' ' , ' '

Whatever1 you happen to have wrong
inside. There are' many 1 comical
things In our profession and In our
modern medical ethics, but nothing,
I am sure, more absurd than the rec
ognition of "Internal medicine"- as a
legitimate special field of .practice.
In my Judgment,' arrived at after
more years of study than most of
these humbug speolatlsts have- prac
ticed, the rolson d'etre of this allcced
specinlty'ls merely to afford the' pam
pered gentlemen who elect to follow
It a legitimate opportunity to gouge
and exploit the . credulous folk who
believe that a doctdf must be st better
doctor If he holds out as a specialist.
In an elder day there were a few
physicians who really limited their
practice to consultatlonswthat is,
they accepted only patients referred
to them by' practicing physicians or
answered only calls sent In'by physi
cians at tho bedside. They were real
specialists, with a solid background
of experience behind them: Their col
leagues knew and recognized the val
ue of their help, opinion or advice In
difficult tases. Theso honest consult
ing physicians did hot cater- to the
Wlsecracker crowd In tact there -was
no such class of near-rich or newly-
rich to cater to. They depended sole
ly upon recognition of their skill or
ability by their colleague!.'

' , . QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
' 'The riiience of Underwear -.
For years I have wdrn heavy wool
underwear in winter and very light
wool In the summer, for the reason
that wool absorbs the sweat better
than linen or cotton and also that
the air dries the wool :bettr than
it does cotton next to the body,
thereby leaving the layer next ta the
body less sticky and giving freer ven
tllatlon. What do you think of my
practice? (M. C.)
Answer X A think you . are . quite
right. Any one who haa worn a wool
bathing suit and compared its com
fort when wet and iri the breeze with
that of cotton , knows that light
weight wool underwear is ideal for
summer, and for those whose habit
or occupation keeps them much In
doors In winter.' . : . : . -.

The .modern mother owes it to
her son and to his future wife to

In training children to orderliness

In a family where girls are ex

clean their own rooms, to help with
the dishes and to set the table,' the
same things should be expected or

whole story. I'd be mighty glad to
help you 'It I can.''
"I'tUInk that would be best, And,"
agreed Old Tony.
' ''"Where anal. I begin!" i ,
"Suppose you begin with the dis
appearance ot your busband," said
the sheriff, '"I know the maid facts
ot the affair at the bank, add the
arrest ot your father. , I thought it
was established beyond doubt that
Bruce Carey was da Camden when
the crime was committed?" ' '
"Yes, ' sir, Bruce was" delivering
some papers to th'e president ot the
Camden bank.", - . .
"Then why didn't ho come back
home to Orchard Hill?" . : '
ij ."Why, Bruce 'didn't.' even' fcriow
about what bad happened at the
bank when he went away. His go
ing away was planned before any
thing could have happened. He
left a letter about It about his going-away,
I mean." -: --
i; "Who has this letter?'' the sheriff
asked.
... "I hart," ' ' -
"Haven't ydti shown this letter
to tha authorities?"
: "Oh, no, air. Nobody but "Father
Tony and Pierre and I know about
Bruce s reasons for going away. I
simply couldn't let Orchard Hill
know. I I would die ot shame. And
it would be terrible for Pierre. It
would be just as bad for Bruce too
when he comes back. We- could
never live such a thing down. It
was all such a horrible mistake '
Bruce s going away. It would have
been bad enough any time, but for
him to disappear, for a reason that
we dared not let anybody know
about, tbe very night the bank"
"1 see," said the sheriff: "And
when Bruce didn't show up the
morning after the crime the officers
began hunting him in spite of his
aiiui?"
"Yes, sir. And Father Tony and
Pierre and I 'nought if Bruce could
only come homo of bis own free will
bOfbre the officers found him. that
everything would be all right and
nobody would ever heed to knew
the reason for his going away,, as
they would have to know if he were
arrested and brought back in con
nee Hon with the bank." - .
"You were right 'id "that Mrs.
Careys But it would have been bet
ter It you bad told the authorities
why your busband disappeared.
'vie could never havo nn.
living In Orchard Hill It I had. And
wouldn't the officers have fcrrestid
him and brought him back for the
brink Just the same? Besides, It
t .woman t have been fair to
rierre." i i . .
. "Pierre-?" Tire sheriff-glanced 'at
the telegram In- his hand. "Who is
mis run-re Doaovan?"
; Ann looked appeallhgly at Old
iuny.
"Pierre Donovan, sir." the Old ac
tor spoka impressively, as if re
ferring to a personage ot mora tljan
ordinary importance. "Pierre Dono
van is the son of one Hoy Donovan
and Harriet Noel, his wife. She died
when her son was only a eMld and
I bad the honor to be appointed by
uvr as executor of her will nJ.j
auaraian oi her son. Pierre la des
tine to be a great an artist bt the
tase as was bla mother. . , .
"Harriet Noel waa one ot (he
Rreatest actresses bMier day. Her
boy grew to manhood In the altnoO
phero of tht Iheater-so tar it It
waa powlHa. for me tocreata xSrh
; "His home, is hj: Orchard Hill,
Is It?" ......
i "Pierre made his homt with Mr.
and Mrs. Carey. These three young
people, sir, grew lip together in
Orcb'ird Hill'." '" -;; '' .;--y':' '
"This man (s ah tfcior, jou say?"
i "Pierre Donovan was .born. -to. be
an actor. His earliest memories ore
of the theater when tie was oh
the stage iff ''child parts With IiIf
mother. Be has been rea'reH in the
best traditions of dramatic art,' -He
was about to b'eln Sis 1 i f'e w'6rit, by
Enrolling n-the Academy -of Dra
matic Art when suddenly this: uil
fortunate situation developed." 'c
, "And so' Pierre lived wlfH ydd'and
f' our husband, Mrs; Carey?" '
Poor Ann's ireply waa scarcely
iudlble. "Yes, sir." . '
1 "And did he work in the bank,
too, with your father and your hus
band?" .
"Oh,, no, 'sir. - Pierre "wofied ''In
the Owl Drug' Store. He was a soda
fountain clerk." . '. i : .' .i-M
"What did you, mean,. Mrs.. Crey.
when ybii said just now that yon
couldn't tell why your husband weiit
away because it wouldn't be fair to
your soda fountain actor friend?"
'. Again' Ann turried" to Old Tony
appeatingly. Mdst I tell htm, 'Fa
ther Tohyr": ; A : ,i i--"I'm
afraid you must, Ann."
The sheriff waited.
At last Ann managed to speak.
' "BrucS thought' that Pierre and
1 were' itt love with each other 1
tneatt In a way tliat we had i:o
fight to be. in the letter he left for
me be said . that I. had been untrue
to him, and that-was why he was
leaving me and was neven coming
back. Don't: you see.-slr, why t
couldn't let anybody know ' that
Bruce had left me for shch a rea
son As that? Ddn'f yon See how un
fair it would have been to Plei-re?"
, '"Pierre,' knew, why your husband
left you, did he?". -. , .;. :. ,
"Oh.-yesi sir. , Pierre and; Father
Tony read the letter after the tiffl--cers
took ather away-And we decide
ed it would be best not to mention
the' letter to any one and that
Pierre must go and find Bruce and
bring him back hdma before' the
officers botiid arrest him for the
bank trouble." .-.. '. .., . . ,.
' "What made you think that Bruce
might be In these parts?" : ,-
."Because Pierre's. tether, who de
serted Pierre and bis mother "when
Pierre was a little boy, wrote Bruce
about a wonderful gold- mine out
here, and wanted Bruce to get
njoney to put in it."
.,VAnd did Bruce get money to in
vest in this mine?'1
Ann answered this question with
womanly Indignation as she remem
bered how Bruce had taken Pierre's
money. ;:
"Yes, sit,' he did." He persuaded
Pierre, to let him have his school
money;- Butt Pierre :doesn't know
that it is his father whct'has thls
mine. Plerre.'s father wasn't gopd
to his mother, and Bruce .thought
If Pierre "knew, he wouldn't let him
have the money."- - , -,
"Didn't the officers know" about
this miner
"They didn't know about it when
Father Tony and .'.left Orchard Hill.
You see, from the first, Bruce never
would let us tell anybody about It,
because he waa connected with the
bank, and be thought Mr. Dayton,
the prosldcni, wouldn't like him In'
be Interested -la mlnea "and such
things." - '
"t e- So you thought Pierre
could find your husband and brlna
him back home before the sheriff
could locate him?"
"Yes, sir.".
"What about your father, Mrs:
Carey? Ho Is under arrest for this
bank crime, ain't he?' -
Ann wrung her hands. l'Oh, yes.
sir. And that Is' another reason why
Bruce must come home. Bruce will
knot what to do. to help father.
"We we didn't know what to do.
I I needed Bruce so.-- Dnn't vn
