Every season presents not only a‘
certain preleronee in colors but a
preference in color
And now we have brown and pink
Which. in the Judgment of many.
really do not go together at all well.
However. milliners assure us that
brown and coral are going to be 0!-

surance ox favorable reception. and
there are frocks showing the same
eil’ect.
a new frock of golden brown crepe
do chine trimmed with the same
material in pink. Beside this is a
frock of cloud gray georgette with
bands of Jade green georgette with
embroidery in green and silver.
Of pink shades. coral seems to be
most in favor. But there is hardly
a tone of the reddish sort that
would not be in the picture. Vermil—

Perhaps sweet Nancy guessed the‘
weighty significance of the fishing
trip—her father's oddities had grad-
ually impressed themselves upon her
understanding as various suitors had
been taken up by her stern parent»
had fished. golfed. and hunted with
him—and being young and venture—
some had practised untiringly and
had all beaten him at every sport-—
and had then gone sadly away.
Nancy had hired all these boys. but
Philip Donaldson was the only one
she had ever lovaL “d as his at-
tentions became very serious indeed.
she saw with a very frightened dut-
tcring in her hear: that her father
was "on the Job." and was putting
Phil through the mysterious test.
That was why aha had tucked a
tiny white silk glove in his pocket
as he lelt her.
Their glanms told each other
what their lips had no time to in:-
part. for Isa Derringer was impa-
tiently waiting with his fishing gear
packed in the car. where he had
already taken his seat.
Out there in the sunshine with
the Derringer motor boat anchorod
in the channel that led into the
Sound. Phil clumsily lined the bait
.like you—ddrrir'e your patience
your stick-todtiveness—your m0‘-
esty. and I'm gomg to show you
how to ash. How about it?”
Of course Phil said the right
thing and he had a glimmering that
if he had caught all the fish. Der-
rnger would not have been so
:agreeable.

THE WORLD
The world is wide. and men have
needs.
Need all their faiths and all their
crosds
And all the wisdom of the past
To bring than: solely home at last.
And many volumes 1 have read
And heard tho things the sages
said-
And yet I know another way:
A thought of ”other every day.
The world is hard. temptadons hide
By every hill and harbor-side.
And men have need at something
true
'13 keep them clean and got them
through.
But then is little room for sin
In hearts where Mother dwells
within.
And th:a will save the Iona who
stray: ‘

The world is great. and great the

And crowded in the road or life.
