Ono season the MI; owl perched itself on women's hats—or rather two bead eyes were set in a fluff of soft feathers to resemble the head of this bird of wisdom. The pheasant is occasionally favorite. and at times the cook or chanticieor has enjoyed a vogue among smart 'w‘omen that quite belies his humble. barnyard origin. And now comes the parrot. And the most interesting thing about this fad is that the parrot need not be made of feathers. In fact, he seems to be looked upon with greater favor by fashionable women when he is made of some such stuff of trifling worth as white cord. ‘ Really charming parrots may be made of peanuts and bits of bright- colored tissue paper, you know. You slash up the green and red paper to imitate the parrot's tail feathers and paste this on the stem end of the peanut. The other end bears the semblance to the parrot's head with his heavy bill. A little paint marks eyes and gives color to what is not covered with tissue paper. To be sure these little peanut parrots are not used, on hats. But they do make charming decorations and table favors when placed on little swings of cord and wire. The sketch shows a navy blue milan hat with upturned brim edged with white cord. The parrot is like- wise made of white cordflacking any suggestion of the parrot’s bril- liant plumage. But the parrot coi- orings are in good repute. One of the milliners has gone in for love birds—all in the parrot family as far as fashions go—and has made charming hats. each one of ’which combines some of the soft brigh colors found in the plumage of these little birds that die of grief when they are separated from their males A certain well-known French ao- trees. by the way, has adopted the parrot and carries one on her arm or hand when she goes out for walks —-much as a falconer of old carried his falcon. A Trick in Smartnsss ls Taken By the Pure White Hlt. F the milliners had their own way [they would have every season bring in a. vogue for colored hats. To be sure black hats are seldom left on their hands; they are easy The well-dressed woman. pay a good price for a hat like black hats. But when black or navy blue or brown hats are in fashion then fewer hats are sold. 0n the other hand. if hats of bright or light col- ors, white hats. beige hats or gray hats, are chosen as a matter of fash- ion. then more hats are sold. because they are far less durable than are those of darker colors. The flower- trimmed. bright or light hat is espo- cially favorable to a brisk mlllinery business. Because. crisp and virile as it may look to begin with. it soon becomes bedraggled, showing signs of contact with summer suns and ' v e SS 4 ‘ i ..=::i .3 ByMARY SHALL; t" "a" ms. nu. mm :Uocisr‘o soup-vim O “WW_W mm" .. a. - 'W/arw 2.1.2.1491: l ’1'] H...“- )‘/F'v' 1. at; Navy blue mile» hat.

How was it. possi- ble to make little Jim understand that his father was dead to them for over? v Clara had oftsnputit to herself what she should do if Henry begged her to take him back. Her pride would never permit it. No. every- thing was at an end. But little Jim couldn't understand He was always crying for the father who used to carry him on his back- The worst man shows the best side of his nature to a child. And. after all. there were good points to Henry. However. in a few weeks 11m would be free. She would go away somewhere with the child. and there he would learn to forget. Still. it was all very embarrassing, and little Jim. very miserable. longed for his father. He would wake up with a start in the middle of the night and cry for him. That was the hardest thing to bear—the boy's thinking (that his father had come home. And then there came a wonderful day for Jim. It was on his way home from school, and there, stand- ing outside the candy shop. was his father! He could hardly believe that he was real. until he had run to him and hugged him. Then he knew that he was real. Such a kiss and a hug. and they two walking hand in hand. men to- gether, as in the old days. "But you mustn’t tell mother, or she'll never let you meet me again.“ his father had insisted. "If you tell her you'll never see me again." And little Jim. wondering very much. had given his promise. It was so hard to keep. But two or three times a. week he found his father outside the candy shop. Then there came a day when Henry haunting the place for a sight of the little son whom he loved so dearly. failed to meet him coming home from school. And the next day it was the suns, and the next and the next. Casting Vote . By JUBTiN WENTWOOD. Hodarodnotgo‘totbsbousy though he know where it was. that wasforClara's salts.

And Henry was standing there but therowasnobagofcandyln his hand. "He's calling for you. You must come!" Henry silently accompanied his wife back to the house. The child was tossing on his bed and crying. "Hero I am. Jim," said Henry kneeling down at the bedside. And the child knew his father's voice. and stretched out his little hands and smiled. After that came the long days of convalescenco. Little Jim was very glad. "The doctor says you‘ve saved his life. Henry." said Clara. “And now"—he gulped—"I'll have to be going. I suppose. I know you won't have me here, although I wish it were possible for me to stay and try to atone for the past—" "But Jim wants you. Henry.” an- swered Clara.

PARADOXICAL as it may seem to the light—minded. or to those trifling. helter-skelter persons who habitually lament because of lack of time. the busy man on- grossed in large affairs seldom hints at the swift passage of crowded hours. . The reason is. that he makes every minute count by moving in a direo lina He never wastes a moment He takes up his work unhesitatingiy and refuses to let go of it until he has mastered every detail and fully familiarized himself with its mani fold intricacies. In other words. he does his task thoroughly. and having finished it he is prepared to take up another with a mind unburdenod with tor- menting thoughts or mischievous all came « CI). g makes no false .~ will have to re- h course to ruffle oac r he knows his . 3 filled with perils.

His cares have been left be- hind. and he is buoyant and light- hearted as a school boy on the first day of his summer vacation. He is not a man that thinks it will go hard with him if his nose is not kept forever against the grind- stone. He may at times. in com-non with other mortals. be hot-headed and foolhsrdy. but in the main he manages very well to be fortunate and happy—two delightful sensa- tions which come naturally from the conservation of time. He is a. man that moves with the flood tide. steers a straight course and pulls a steady stroke. whether at work or at play—tho kind of man that is destined to arrive at his Vla- ioned port with flying colors. Life,a.nd all that is dear to it. would fall to a frightfully low ebb if this sort of man were. by some stroke of fate. removed from its over chang- ing stage of action. It is his kind that keeps fickle humanity on its feet and contributes most to the leftiest achievement and greatest happiness of the world at large. !and ignition’ ' Borg 57. Bed o ‘tor, Klaxon '.
