ITHIN recent years many
W women have grown really
neglectiul in the matter of
gloves. For some reason or other
interest in gloves declined enor-
mously during the war days. and
gloves in the evening as then.
During the eighties and ninoties
of the loot century. it was the
proud boast of many womenathat
they barely ever passed an hour
gloveless. save when they slept.
And even then they sometimes
bleaching and softening their
hands. Unless luncheon and din-
ner were most informal family
t’neals many women always wore
gloves. They were practically
obligatory at dinner parties and
dances and the theater. and young’
debutsntos used to be reproveti
who discarded their gloves even
play.
days was trained not to feel the
irritation of wearing gloves. in
fact some of them actually felt
lost without them.
Now of course we no longer
but they have become tremen-
dously important. so important in
fact that French fashion critics re—
peatsdly assure us that gloves are
quite as important as shoes in the
achievement of a really smart
street costume. We are mado to
feel that it in all important to have
the gloves carry out the tone of
the whole, and as if they could
mar and quite ruin the good effect
of an otherwise perfect ensemble.
With beige stockings the gloves
should be beige. never pure white.
With gray stockings—«gray gloves.
in this country women of dis-
criminating taste seem to have
taken a decided fancy to washable
dooskln gloeva of slip—on variety.
To the woman who wants to sim-
plify her dressing problems as
much as possible this type of glove
is always a. nuisance. Of course
when one has a personal maid to
see that thue gloves are perfectly
washed and that there are always
enough fresh ones on hand it does
not seem difficult.
In the meantime the ornate.
cuffed. glove appeals strongly to a
very large‘majority of American
women and there seems little
chance of its going out of favor
for many. many moons.

THE BOUTONNIEBE on
otsmertou
THE bowonniero is enjoying a
distinctfi'e position. it is no
longer a camella. a roaebud and
a. few violets. It is no longer a tiny
bunch of fruit. as it was a few sca-
sons ago. It is sometimes one thing.
sometimes another.
The camdla is still perfectly ac-
ceptable as a buttonhole or carnage
flower. And so. too, is the group of
xosebud and violets. But there are a
dozen other boutonnieres that are
also smart.
There is. for instance. the little
knitted wad boutonniere. combining
any desired colors in interesting form
without relation either to flower or
fruit.
Then these is the enameled metal
iiower~usually in red or orange
combination.
There is the carved bone bouton-
niere and the one made of painted
china.
There is the bonfonnlore of real
flmvers-«lisfinctly smart at the mo-
ment. You go into the fiorlst‘s and
ask for something suitable for the
costume you are wearing—and in
five minutes emerge with just the
right combination of larkepur and
baby's breath and rosebud. of zinnia

‘coreopsis.
Perhaps the newest thing is the
tiny doll's head mounted as a bouton-

are mounted on silver paper stern

One Daily Fact for Liotonon
THE
Tlcklcr Coils are coupling gong
used for a special purpose. Coupling.
you remember. is a name for the
condition in which one radio circuit
in H0 arranged with relation to an-
other one that the radio energy
passes over. more or less perfectly.
from one of tlio circuits to the;
.othrr one. The circuits are said to
'bc coupled to each other.
When two coils are set up. for
examplo. Ho that the c-iectro-mug-
netic field of one coil cuts across
the. wiring of the second coil. the
energy will pass across also and the
coils are said to be coupled to each
other.
A tickicr coil is arranged in this
way in a regenerative circuit so that
a port of the energy produced by
the tube is fed back into the circuit
in advance of thc tulle. This. you
remember. is the secret of regenera-
tion. The tube amplifies the signal.
Then a part of this amplified energy
is fed through the tube once more
and is amplified again. And so on
until the maximum amplification is
rcached.
ri‘lw ticklcr coil to accomplish
this is usually wound with. or
placed close to. a coil in the original
antenna circuit. or some coil that
carries the radio currents that are
to be fed through the tube. Thus.
by the coupling of the two coils. the
feed~back is, accomplished.
By adjusting the closeness of the
two coils or by tuning under both
of them or by placlntgmore or less
resistance in the tickler. the amount
of food-back can be regulated.

or. translated into simple prose. that
a mackerel sky prosages rain and
stormy weather.
The reason for this is that the
small. flaky clouds which go to
make up the "mackerel sky"-—clonds
which are known as "cirro-cumu—
lus"-contains a high percentage of
moisture and it is a matter of only
a. few hours before they will join
together into a true "rain cloud."
The appearance of a “mackerel

almost infallible indication of rain
or stormy weather within twelve or
sixteen 1‘ hours. no matter how
brightly the sun may ho' shining at
the time. and. as a storm usually
brings cooler weather in its train. a
sky of this kind may also be taken
as a sign of a forthcoming drop in

The Pursuit Wot

By JANE OSBORN
car at the garage in Pine Tree
and‘had taken instead an old
horse named Mag. Now he rode on
through the pine woods. following
paths so narrow and so seldom trod
that sometimes the old more turned
on inquiring car back to Ulcason—
wondering whether he really wanted
hcr- to follow such a lonely route.
The rider felt sure that he was
pursuing the right Course. even
though his immediate route might
not bring success. Somewhere in
these dark woods the lone horse-
woman was surely to be found. The
others who had come before him.
Clark. Baldwin and the rest. had
hoped to succeed by scouring round
in motor cars. keeping only to the
main highways or to sandy roads
through the woods. They had all
seen her at one time or another but
always she had disappeared into
these' enormous woods. and they
were powerless to pursue her. But
Gleason, on horsebackncould follow
anywhere.
He did not hope for much luck the
first day. He had arranged to keep
his horse ‘for four or five days and
nights—the days he would spend in
the woods and the nights lying in
the straw of some farmer's barn.
So it pleased Gleason much when.
after he had been riding through the
woods for no more than an hour. he
heard the crunching of pine needles
not very far off and then saw the
form of a slender black horse and a
GLEASON DRElV had left his
= woman rider through the trees not
many hundred feet away. 'But de-
spite the valiant cooperation of his
old mare. the girl soon butt-ode him
-—ho could not even be sure which
way she went.
This mysterious woman rider of
the pines had been the subject of
occasional newspaper items for a
couple of years. By the natives of
the vicinity she was said to possess
some magic cure for snake bite. It
was even said that she had nest: of
snakes in her cabin and that she let
them sleep on her bed. But not one
of the natives or visitors in that
section had ever discovered the
place of her abode. nor had any of
them ever come close enough to her
to see her features plainly.
Surely the true account of the
mysterious woman rider of the pines
would make a good story for the
Morning Bugle.
Riding through the woods all his
waking hours for two days he came
three or four times upon the rider
in the distance. Late the second
afternoon he spied her only thirty
feet away. In a few minutes Glen-
son was riding by the girl's side. and
in” another he was standing before
her holding her horse's bridle with
that of old Mag.
"May I talk with you. a little?"
he said. trying to make himself as
charming as possible. For the lone
rider proved to be both young and
pretty—mot at all the sort of person
one would suspect of consortlng with
rattle snakes. ‘
He told her quite frankly what his
motive was in coming. and of the
wasted effort of the other men to
meet her.
"Yes. i remember them." said the
girl. "It was really funny how
frightened one of them was when he
saw me the first time. I think if I
hadn't run away from him he would
have run away from me."
She had much that was interesting
to tell him oil the pine woods. Thane
was a cave that had been used by
Hevolntionnry deserters. she told him.
rnd she, strongly suapected that it
vras now used by bootleggers. She
tvrz-uld lend the way. if he wished.
That would make a good story. she
thought; ‘
So the next day Gleason and the
lone horsewomnn went deeper into.
the woods in search of this cave the
very existence of which had become
a myth to the lethargic natives.
Meantime Gleason found his com—
panion quite the most attractive girl
he had ever met, and he did his best.
to make her find his companionship
agreeable.
"Now." he said. after he had so-
cured the basis for a remarkable
story about this cave—~where he and
his guide had found hidden boot—
legger's stores—«"Now. tell me about
yourself. What is your cure for
snake bite?" .
The girl blushed guiltily and than
laughed.
“I suppose I ought not. to have.
done it. l'm ‘hot the real Lorne
llorsewoman. That was a poor crea-
ture named Betsy—Ahoy called her
Daft Betsy. I don't know how much
that they said about her was true. .
Well, I got. interested in the stories
about her, and I searched her out
and made friends with her and found
out that she was half sick and didn't
have enough to eat and really needed
to be taken care of. So I found a.
place for her in on industrial home
in the city. She's getting along
nicely now and is learning rug
weaving. After that I used to ride
through‘ the woods whenever I came
down this way. and the first thing i
knew the natives thought I was the
Lone Homewoman. They ran when
they saw me. It was such fun and
1 love to ride-«ind then the reporters
started coming down and I liked to
lead them a chase. But you‘ll for-
give me. won’t you?" _
“There's nothing to forgive."
laughed Gleason. "I'll lose my bet.
but I'm really glad you don't make
nets of rattle snakes. because I very
much hope that you and I will be
friends. Tell me who you really
are?"
“oh. I’m Nancy Lee. I guess you
know my father. He owns the Bugle.
I think. But you’ll please not tell
him how you met me.”
And it was not until the eve of
their marriage six months later that
Gleason Drew and Nancy told Mr.
Lee the story of their meeting.
