A LITTLE OLD LADY
I sit by the fire when the day-
light is done
And I dream many dreams of
the beautiful past;
But of all of life's memories still
there is one
I remember the first and I
think of the last:
A lamp on the table. a circle of
light.
The click of the needles. the
rock of a chair.
The peace of a household. the
quiet of night.
And a little old lady with gray
in her hair.
Oh. many the friends that will
troop by the fire
As I sit all alone in the dusk
of the eve.
And many the clasp of a hand I
desire.
And many the fact I remem-
ber. and grieve.
They come like the shadows that
come to the well,
They host for a moment. they
fade in the air,
And only one vision remains of
them all——
A little old lady with gray in
her hair.
Yes. life is a day. and the night
never far. -
We come like the shadows. like
shadows we go;
The day brings the twilight, the
twilight the star.
And somehow that star is a
star that I know.
For after the world is a world
left behind.
When nearer the heavens and
golden the stair.
I shall come to the star. and the
star. I shall find.
Is a little old lady with gray
in her hair.

THE plain black umbrella is f.
has popular with women than
it used to bc.‘ Not only at.
colored umbrellas increasingly pop-
ular. but plaid umbrellas and um-
brellas made from jacquard silks are
increasingly popular. Nnx'y blue
pinocheck silk makes a smart new
umbrella. Green umbrellas are said
to be far less popular than dark blue
or purple. An amber umbrella
handle shows elaborate decoration
of inlaid silver. and one of green
crystal shows a. flower design out-
lined in gold.
The stubby umbrella is still in far
greater favor than the slender um-
brella. and the short ferrule seems
to be the rule in smart umbrellas.
Almost all umbrellas are made with
some sort of bracelet or wrist strap.
A carved wooden handle shows a
bracelet of red pleated leather, a
silver inlaid handle shows a silver
chain. while the strap is often a
silk cord and tassel.

quite lately we have been wondering
why it was that the girls who win
silver cups and things for swimming

Undoubtedly attractive, ' Susanne
Lenglen is certainly not one of the
beautiful or even pretty women of
her race. But she was not too ab-
sorbed in tho techniquo'of her game
to overlook the technique of dress.
and Americans have taken many
suggestions from her and other
French women tennis players in the
matter of dressing attractively for
the court. After her visit to this
country the Lenglcn handouts be-
came known from ocean to ocean.
And now it is interesting to ob-
serve that an American tennis player
is setting a. fashion in England—i
fashion which will doubtless go
across the channel. Helen Wills.

Quite striking was the effect recent-
ly of a bright red kasha. hat to
match the leather belt worn with
the white sport frock.
Meantime there is an ever increas-
ing disposition on the part of French
women to go listless. Of course they
are not so free in this regard as
many American women are. but it
has been quite customary at some
of the French resorts this summer
to spend certain morning hours on
the beach listless. This way comes

Leather Becomes as Important to
the Mlllincr as no the Shoe
Maker.
HE case of the old man in the
Mother Goose Book who went
out on a. misty moiety morning
entirely clothed in leather would not
seem so remarkable as it did in the
days when children first lispod those
nursery rhymes. Old man may not
go out entirely dressed in leather.
but fashionable women are becom-
ing more and more partial to leather
‘ apparel.
Quite the latest development in
the fad for leather is the leather
earring. They are of suede and are
sold to match suede hats for sport
wear. Sometimes they are trimmed
with gilt or pearl beads.
There is all sorts of leather trim-
ming for hats now. and not only are
there flowers of leather. but we now
have leather feathers. Leather gar-
denins. while by no means new, are
still admired in France, and the use
of red and white camelllas or gar-
denias together is much admired.
The sketch shows a little white felt
clocho with upturned brim at front

denian at the sides and one red gar-
denia directly. at the back,

in leather. and all sorts of leather-

surely sooner or later ruin our eye-
sight. and the more becoming the
veil the more surely. oestrtingly, was
it going to work its injury on our
poor long-suffering eyes. But .for
some reason or other the fad for
veils went. out. and the nagging in-
dividuals who always find something
in the fashion to scold about have
directed their energies in other di-
rections. ' .
And here we are actually coming
back to veils again. Though Amer-
ican women have long been given
the credit of knowing how to woo:-
veils better than any other women
in the world. it is from France that
this revival seems to come. Word
has come from fashionable places
there that quite a. number of women
have adopted the revived fashion
and that it seems to be a fad taken
up almost exclusively by women of
high social position. There is a cer-
tain formality about the veil that
somehow always has appealed to the
aristocratic type of woman.
Meantime. one wonders. how will
veils and bobs mix? It was predict-
ed some time ago. you may recall.
that earrings would doubtless 80 out
of favor since bobs had come into
such high vogue. Bobs didn't seem
compatable with earrings. But to
the modern flapper all things in the
way of dress are popular. And we
soon got perfectly used to seeing
earrings with short hair.
There are those who scorn the
idea of combining bobbed hair and
voila. But more and more We learn
that there are no real inconsisten-
cies in fashion. It the effect is
smart. distinctive. that is enough.
Voila. as revived recently in Paris
and to a. certain extent in this coun-
try. are worn in most interesting
ways. The sketch shows a fine
brown veil with a. lace border worn
with a small black satin hat. the
border being drawn up rather snug-
ly under the chin. There is a smell
beigo felt hat worn with a fine ma-
line veil worn over the hat and then
tied in a bow at the back. The only
other trimming of the hat is a dis.-
mond pin.

"U’ncle” Jasper checked bin un-

co see something white and
sprawling in outline. lying partly in
the road. partly in the man.
He- scrambled from his rickety
seat. and limped forward. then beat
with a startled cry over the form
of a. girl.
‘ ”She's fainted. trying to gut suns
water at the spring!" he muttered.
“But what's she doing way up here
like this alone?"
He hurried to the spring. wot his
handkerchief and bathed her tom-
plos. She regained consciousness

"Where—where an: If"
"You’re all right. lass. just fainted.
Git into the wagon 111' I'll give yo

her to rally.
Ho guided has- to I. comfortable
seat beside him. and they started
on. and into a mystery he felt
would deepen.
She was nothing more than a girl.
but his cautious uniloning hints
as to how she happened where he
found her drew no reply other than
a low. "I was pretty tired. and I
tried to walk up from the river; and
it was so warm I—I fainted. I
guess."
He soon made up his mind that
she was terribly wort-led about
something. but he made no headway
in finding out until they drew near
the little village; then he asked her
outright where she wished to go.
“I want to go to Mr. Newton’s."
she answered doubtfully.
He started. ”Why. that's way up
on the 01110!) road—miles from
harel"
He heard her catch her breath
in a low sob, and his old heart
warmed to her. “Now. look here,
you‘re all tired out. I'll leave the
mail. and you come home with me.
Mother-'11 be glad to have some one
to talk to ’ccpt me for a change."
So it came about. that. a half
hour later. he led her into the kit-
chen of' his cozy old home and in-
troduced her to the smiling mother-
ly old lady who greeted them.
'Mother. here's a lass that needs
a good supper and a good rest.” he
said gently.
He and the girl then made way
with Mother Tate's pleasing supper.
He could see that she was desper-
ately hungry and as desperately
tired, Afterwards. he turned her
over to his wife. and went to the
barn to look after his horses.
When he returned. the house was
quiet. and as he went to his room
engulfs. he paused and listened.
He could hear from the guest roorrr
a faint sound. and he know what it
was—tho low weeping of despair.

Newton nnswu'ed coldly-after he
heard the news. ‘1 know who she
is: she’s the girl my uncle Bert
adopted. He died last week. We

him. and we din't want anything
to do with her! Tell her sol" Bang

"I loo—I Inc—well, you. don't have
to have her by gun!"
Before the girl can down, he
told the news to his wife, and she
agreed to break it to the girl. ‘
When he came in for breakfast.
he found that peace had come. al-
though the frail. pretty girl who
looked at him with tender eyes
showed that she was suffering.
“She‘ll stay with us. Jasper. to
help me. until she's stronger.” his
wife said. smiling. “Her name is}
Ruth—the name of our girl." '
A week went by, but she seemed
to grow more frail. "Too much on
her mind." the old man thought.
The plan that popped into Jaspct‘s
head he put into prompt execution.
He drove to the villa: store. called
the pleasant-faced young owner out
back.
He told Ruth's story. then said.
'Now. Bob. come ever. see if you
can‘t cheer her up. You're a pretty
good-lookin’ lad. an‘ a. fine one too.
'Twonft do any harm if you make
a. little love to her—jest friendly
like. you see."
"Sure, I'll try to cheer her up.
Uncle." Bob agreed readily.
Uncle Tate was away during- the
day. but he followed the experi-
ment with keen interest. Bob called
for her in his car. took her with
him on trips; and Jasper saw a new
interest take hold in her life, Her
dark eyes brightened. a little color
crept into her cheeks.
One evening. as he drove into the
yard after his long trip. he glanced
through the window into the kit-
chen. Bob had Ruth in his arms
and was kissing her.
He hitched his team and hurried
in. His chance was ready. He
faced Bob's happy. clean—cut face.
"Now, look ahere. Bob. when I
asked you to come over and be
good to her—and make a little
harmless love to her—J didn't mean
to play with her—fool her! I just
saw you kissin' her; an‘ it's a low
down trick!" Jasper said _with heat.
Bob's face went from astonish-
ment, star}: and staring. to a slow
smile. He said gently. ”Uncle. I
started out as you said: but it's
,dif‘ferent now. I love her." he added
quietly. "I just told her, and she's
gone up to get Mother Tate and
tell her. and we were going to
spring it on you!"
Then in the doorway appeared
Mother Tate. her arm over Ruth’s
shoulder. Mother Tate’s eyes were
shining with happinss and the
girl‘s—
Jasper took one look. and than he
thought to himself: ”I guess that'-
