De­ lighted beyond words with my find, I took it to the other members of the staff, who were Just ns enthusiastic. “Then somebody blundered.

I would like to tell him that I am the writer of ‘Blue Pearls,"* the woman said. “The rejection of the manu­ script, which I considered the best of anything I had done, was the death knell to my hopes of authorship.” The crowd gathered around and lis­ tened as Mrs. Wlerk unfolded her tale of girlhood hopes uml disillusionment. “When the manuscript of ‘Blue Pearls’ came back I figured I was a failure us a novelist and had better go to work and learn some business. I never wrote another story,” she said. “ I learned the trade of corset making.

Texas to Send Two Blantons to House? SUMMER SUITS WIDELY VARIED with formal suits, that draw style In­ spiration from many sources, and go their independent way wherever they will. An example of each of these is shown here, and that of the utility suit at the left Is typical of nearly all such suits, while that of the cos­ tume suit at the right speaks for it­ self atone. Tweeds and homespuns in the spring styles have not eclipsed the twins, tricotines, coverts and serges that are always with us, but they have ttftmaged to occupy a good part of the horizon. They were Introduced early. In many new, spring­ time eolors. and they made an In­ stant success. They are made with plain skirts and long, smartly tailored coats, without adornment, other than a few buttons or occasional braid binding <»r a little, simple stitching.

They reveal the fine hand of the artist who knows how to take advantage of the mode and manipulate It to suit the occasion, and to Insure becoming- ness. They are a flattering lot and include the beloved lace hat and a brown mallnes model which fashion smiles upon. When this year’s brides­ maid's hat is not In a pale color or white, it Is because It Is running after ohe of two new favorites—beige and wood brown. The pretty model at the lower right in the picture is a triumph of brown and silver in which brown mallnes veils a soft braid crown and silver lace brim, and brown grapes droop from a chou of silver lace. The white hat at the right with facing of chiffon makes a pretty back­ ground for various flower trimmings set on the brim. It Is shown with a collar of silver-edged ribbon and a wreath of little fruits and flowers. ! Small round heads set around the crown repeat whatever color Is shown for the collar and facing. Bead and ribbon trimming of a different sort provide the only color on the hat with TC'ORT WORTH, T E X .—Texas has the unusual spectacle of sister and brother running for congress. Morever, the brother asserts his en­ emies are trying to hurt Ids sister’s chances for election; the sister says her enemies are trying to keep her brother down. The woman is Miss Annie Webb Blanton of Denton. The man is Congressman Thomas L. Blan­ ton o f Abilene. Miss Blanton at present Is state su­ perintendent of instruction in Texas, and she Is given credit for having made good. She is the first woman to hold the office. She aspires to succeed the late Lu­ cian W. Parrish, congressman, who was candidate for the United States senate and was fatally injured In an automobile accident while cam­ paigning. In her speeches Miss Blanton 1ms vigorously defended her brother’s sen­ sational career in congress. For her­ self, she delcares that she will make the soldiers’ bonus her greatest object If elected. “If you do not want the ex-service men to get this bonus, then do not vote for me,” she advises her audi­ ences.

Miss Blanton said she would not run for congress if the widow of Parrish sought the honor. So, when Mrs. Par­ rish announced she would run, Miss Blanton promptly withdrew her name. After a few days Mrs. Parrish decided not to enter the contest, so the state school superintendent threw her bon­ net into the ring to stay. Miss Blanton's great-grandfather fought In the Texas war for independ­ ence. Her n other’s father. W. G. Weld», was a general In the Mexican war; her own father fought In the confederate army.
