Just now one's attention is called to the practical advantages of shirring! and pleats--especially in the work of remodeling. Both of these dress, making details, so emphasized at the moment, have the pleasant quality of concealing unwanted seams ii ornamental way, while their expanding possibilities recommend them to anyone who is remodeling clothes for growing girls. Shirring is e pecially obliging, as iti admits of fabric being pieced horizontally -- the seams concealed in the evenly placed rows of gathers -- and also vertically, as the piecing will be hidden in the fulness below the lines of shirring.

It was a black robe, but sash was yellow and stood sharply, and Foster saw that robe was richly embroidered Japanese flowers of silk. "Do you mind if I come in?' asked. "I have been with Maud for a bit. She can't sleep, but she sisted that I went to bed. And don't want to go to bed. I can't sleep either. I often come up here and look out when I can't rest." "If I gave you something- "No, I never take drugs, thanks, doctor." "I daresay you are wise there. "Sometimes I play a game myself on the green," she continued, with a motion towards the table, "b tonight I don't feel like it. You a sure you don't mind me coming up' "Not at all. I was just thinking of going down to m; think you ought to rest also, or lie She was not the joyous, care-free creature who had danced in the drawing room, and he saw that her face was lacking the enthusiasm she had then shown. "I suppose it is the late hours of the profession that have made difficult for me to go to bed early, she said soberly. "For years it wa the small hours before I turned ii Late to bed and late to rise. What were you looking out of the window for? Watching anything " "No. Merely looking." She advanced until she stood beside him, and leaned her elbow or the window sash. "Does night ever make you sad, doctor " "No, it hasn't that effect "It makes me melancholy here. I miss the rush and gaiety of the profession, the late suppers, and the whirl of existence. Ah, well, when everything is settled, I may back to the old life again. How I love it! I love anything with movement and energy. Change and change. I must have change, or I'd stagnate and die." She turned a pale face to him, and her deep eyes, that were limpid and profound, scanned his face. She might have been a draped statue, so still was her frame, and Sidney Foster thought that she would have made a fine statue indeed. The perfume which she always used penetrated the air and made the atmosphere strangely delightful. "Do you think the ghost will come tonight?" she asked suddenly. "I don't know. If it came you would perhaps hot believe it was a "Are you sure it is one?" "I don't know. If it is Voodooism -but, then, I don't know. I have been wondering if it was this thing that I thought I saw tonight in the wood when I frightened you." T did not see it then," she mur-red. "But if it came now I would believe. I wonder if it is because of it that we can't sleep." 'Tut, tut. You are not to work yourself up like that, or you'll be in bed too--" "And you will have two patients then, eh? That will keep you busy, I bet." turned towards the window. Dr. Foster walked over to the gas fire and lit it, yawning as he did so. "If you'll excuse me," he said, "I DON'T RISK BAKING FAILURES "YOU CAN'T BAKE GOOD CAKE WITH INFERIOR BAKING POWDER. I INSIST ON MAGIC. LESS THAN 1? WORTH MAKES A BIG CAKE,' MADAME R.

I've put the fire on for you if you want to stay for a bit--" "Doctor Foster, come here" "What is it?" "Come here!" He strode over to the window. She seized his arm and drew him towards her, so that her head was within a few inches of his. Her finger stabbed across the roof of the house towards the edge of the woods. "Do you see anything glimmering over there?" He stared intently. Yes, he saw-something, and his heart beat a rapid tattoo as he gazed. Was it the ghost coming again, twice in one evening? "I saw it glimmer a moment ago," she whispered. "Over by the big beech. What do you think?" He held his breath and watched. Her hand still gripped his arm. He felt her trembling with excitement. "Hadn't we better put out the lights in case?" she breathed. "I want to see it. Oh, I want to see it!" "You are not afraid?" he asked eagerly. "No, you are here. Put out the lights. Do." He tiptoed across the room and snapped out the lights, but kept the fire burning. Then he returned to "The fire doesn't matter," he said. "It could not be seen. Wa are too high up." "Hush," she whispered, and her arm held his close to her. Down by the wood the faint glow of a moving something became r distinct. It appeared and disappeared at intervals, but it moved constantly forward towards Shirley. A thrill swept over Foster was communicated to the woman side him. She turned her eyes and looked into his, and he wondered at the strange gleam that shone in her "It is coming!" she murmured. "It is coming. Look!" He was looking with all his power. The faint glow became brighter. It became a glimmer, then it took form and shape. Though they were high up they could see that it was the face of a monster; but the features were still indistinguishable. It moved closer to the house. Vow it had left the shadow of the tr^es and was crossing the lawn. For a moment it seemed to hesitate and_4^i:ai.n-ed hanging motionless in the middle of the grassy space.

What The Tourist Wants ists just have to be reasonable about it and discover what is what and when. They may sit on the verandah of almost any large hotel in India any day and see the mango tree trick done; but they will never see the rope trick performed unless they are quite a shade less than strictly sober, and probably not then. Moreover, they may roam the country for months before catching sight of an elephant, a tiger or a cobra, even where they are reputed to live, and do live. It is a pity when tourists feel they have been disappointed and deceived. It is a temptation too; it would be so easy in Canada to have a few Indians always handy in feathers and war paint solely in order not to disappoint visitors. Then the tourists would be deceived, but they would feel that they had not bean. Life is very complicated. -- Saint John Telegraph-Journal. Serve the Best Tea "SALADA" CHUCKLES!

Heating Hints 6u Oou-a» 1?jte33cr "*T»OSSINC on a few shovelsful" is * the common way of refueling a furnace, but it is not the proper way, nor is it the way to obtain the most economical heat. Try this method next time you find it necessary to refuel: First, shake the fuel bed gently, until you can see the first red glow in the ashpit. Don't shake the fire roughly or allow red coals to fall through the grates. Then take a shovel, or hoe, and pull a mound of live coals to the front of your furnace fire-box, Just inside the fire door. Do not disturb the layer cf ash under the live coals. Now you have a fire bed sloping downward, from the lower edge of the fire door, toward the back of /our furnace. Into the hollow formed by this -slope, put the fresh charge of coal -- shoveling it in carefully toward the back of the furnace, leaving a mound of live coals in front near the fire door. These live coais ui ront will ignite the gases arising from the contact of the fresh coal with the hot coal, and will cause them to burn without odor. Next remove the ashes from the ashpit, and reset the dampers. The Turn Damper in the smoke pipe should be as nearly closed as possible; the Check Damper should be closed; the Ashpit Damper should be open. It is also advisable to open the slide in the fire-door slightly -- about the width of EVERY DAY LIVING A WEEKLY TONIC by Dr. M. M. Lappin i wooden match tick.

Hinds restores smoothness which soap and water tasks steal away from your hands A WIDOW'S DILEMMA My heart always goes out woman who is bereft of her husband and is left with the task of bringi up young children alone. The gallantry with which some women have such a task, and the success they have made of it, can only invoke admiration. I have a letter this from a widow wh0 is in a dilemma. Let me quota a part of her lettel "My husband died nine years a;; and left me with two children -- girl and a boy. My boy is now seve: teen and is finishing high soho My girl is almost twenty and has good job. They are both good children and have been very considerate of me, but something seems to have come over my daughter in the past year or so. She is not what you v call bad. She has become very fond of dancing and wants to be out e1 night. She is keeping company, ticularly with men( that makes anxious about her future. If I ren strate with her elie tells me I too old fashioned. I have a strong suspicion that some of those she ru around with are too fond of drink, am really worried. Can you help me in my diemma?" This letter is obviously from a man who sincerely desires the best for her daughter, and to that end she ha-3 tried to do her best. Of cc she is facing a situation that many mothers have to face, but I s times wonder if, in such cir stances, a mother's fear are not apt to be unduly exaggerated. Mark you, I appreciate the feelings of a mother in a case like this and I think I quite understand her problem. There is a tendency for the world to take more notice of a young woman's mis-conduct than it does of a young man's misconduct. Somehow we seem to associate the sowing of wild oats with young men and look for that sort of thing in them. I do not know why should do that, but do it, and the fact that we do is apt, perhaps, to make mothers a little bit more sensitive regarding the conduct of their daughters. A young women, like the one concerned here needs to be handled carefully. To adopt an unsympathetic and scolding attitude toward her may-do more to drive her along the w path than anything eke. After she is not yet twenty and she is just at that age when she is going through that experience which psychologists call "the period of stress and storm" and her present conduct may be noth. ing more than her reaction to those changes which are taking place with, in her. Perhaps she will settle dowr soon herself and see the wisdom oi taking things in moderation wi hout your having to do anything about it. But I fancy that you are too anxious to wait for things to take their normal course. Probably you even feel that if she is not checked now there can be no telling where she will land. And, in a sense, you may be right. What this girl needs is wise direction. I would advice you to have a straight heart to heart talk with her. Watch for an opportune moment and then open up with the conversation quietly. Try t0 show your love and your thought for. her in your conversation. I mean, of course, more in the tone and manner of your speech than. In the words you use. If you begin to talk to her in "deary deary" terms she will almost certainly resent it. Point out that there is nothing wrong in wanting to have a little pleasure and that you are quite willing that she should have :!.. But make clear to her also that over-indulgence in anything is always bad for one and that, in the ultimate, the highest values in life are not material, but mental, moralt and spiritual. I am sure that if this mother will only adopt the right attitude toward' her daughter and have a real honest-; to-goodness heart to heart talk with' her, she will find her daughter to be" a fairly sensible girl.
