By Pictorial Review A Triumph in Separate Skirts. Even in war time one must admit the lure of the separate skirt. Pio tured today is a two-piece circular model with inserted side gores at the top and pockets trimmed with par row soutache braid. Dark blue faflle is used for the development of the skirt, average size requiring 27% yards. The extensions on the front and back gores are joined and gath- ered to lower edges of side gores. As the front and back gores are without seams, the home dressmaker will find this skirt very simple to make, although it has a very dressy effect when finished. Study the cut: ting guide carefully and place the back and 'front gores on the length- wise fold of material as illustrated. The pocket, is arranged to the left of the back gore. the large "0° per forations resting on a lengthwise thread of material.

Down in my heart I knew that it was rot the kind of place in which a girl] of Mariam's rearing should live, but| happens to belong to the class which lon the other hand I was quite sure| {that no harm could come to her SOljs so much romance and mystery in long as | was with her, and it would | be impossible for her to lose social} oaste by {t, because of the simple fact | {that she had only a few intimate | | friends in the whole city and it was | not likely that they would aver learn | might Outbalancing these | poaytiful friend, considerations was the fact that we withhold and asked | Mariam declared, cals of any kind.

What do {you think of it, Roxane?" Again 1 was silent, unwilling to give my consent to anything which result in compromising my yet not wishing to from her anything which | would give her enjoyment or add to | her knowledge of life 'lI. know what you are thinking," interrupting my | thoughts. "You are thinking that we returned | pave no business in such places. But | why haven't we? So many people | go there, and surely when that is | the case they cannot be so very | bad, can they?" | "It is not that they are bad, as | You express it,"" I said. "A place {cannot be bad nor can it he good. | There may be bad people in a certair locality and good people in another, or there may be both bad _people and good people in a certain place. You and 1 could go anywhere and | vot be damaged by contact with those | we met." { "Let us go, then," cried | "T am all eagerness to see {things I have read about" | If she had only known what en- | tanglements she was about to be- {come involved in, her face would | have been pallid instead of rosy with | the joy of anticipation. { Probably the most potent reason | why I consented to live with Mariam in our diminutive apartment sprang | from the economy of the arrange- {ment. If I made my home with her th her uncle's residence it would | mean no end of expense. Aside {from the food that 1 would eat and the small luxuries which a woman in affluent circumstances requires there were clothes which would have to be purchased, and I was not willing to become so deeply indebted to Mar- iam as long as my future was un- certain. { I tried to persuade myself that Ar thur would answer my letter very promptly and that he would immedi- ately make provision for me until such time as he would be able to rejoin me, but deep down in my heart there was a doubt which 1 could not get rid of. Yet it was so indefinite that it did not give shape or substance to my foreboding. 1 merely felt that something im- pended that a crisis was approach- ing and that Arthur was to be the cause of it, but further than these | vague murmurings my intuition told {me nothing. However, the uncer- | tainty was sufficient 'to make me jcautious and I set my foot down | very firmly when it came to borrow- | ing any large sum from my friend. In our little apartment it was pos- {sthle for us to live very comfort- |ably on a very small outlay. There { Were two bedrooms each opening into {the sitting room, from which, in turn, one entered the dinitg-room. A {swinging door hid the kitchenette {from view, and that was all there | was to the habitation. Nor had we { Spent much on the furnishings. it was {one of those places, provided by { thoughtful landlords for persons who {are willing to pay more rent in or- {der to avoid the responsibility and | expense of owning furniture, which | meant that what furnishings there were were cheap, But they were jouw and clean, and Mariam insisted {on adding a few things which she {declared were needed. { "I think it is wonderfully com- fortable," Mariam declared 'after {these articles had been moved in. | She was standing in the middle of {the sitting-room surveying the place with an air of proprietorship which | was entirely new to her. "And so do I." I agreed, "We {could not be more comfortable in a | palace.' "Besides, it is ours," Mariam con- tinued, "And we ase perfectly free Mariam these | i i i terial "rimmed with stitching and } when the door bell rings all we have to do is mot answer it.

"Then, too, we can have things cooked as we want them, Of course, they may not be propenly cooked, but having cooked them ourselves we are | compelled . to like them, if for no other reason than to save our pride." "You forget that I know a great deal about cooking." I returned with mock hauteur, "I have had much experience, and | assiire you that I am not accustomed to have slighting remarks made about my dishes." "Do not be offended, Roxane," Mariam asstired. "I have great res pect for your ability, and as | am to be your pupil so far as this culin- : Ty business is concerned, I shal! see that this respect is retained. | shall study to please. Indeed, I shall try to become as great and as good a cook as you are." "A very laudable ambition." "Of course. But what I am inter- ested in is the bright lights which we are to see. You are to take me «ut very soon to see all those things that a girl should not see, aren't you? That is what I am eager to do, so please set the date. What do you think of going tonight?" I looked at her keenly. Was it pos- gible that she possessed a hidden af- finity for those white lights which she insisted upon seeing. or was her eagerness merely the result of a child's curiosity? "lI am ready ary time to go." 1 told her with resignation, 'I shall be glad to accompany you, buf in this matter I cannot be your teacher I know nothing at all about the city's right life." (To be continued.) A DOUBLE WEDDING Young People From Sheffield Town- ship Plighted Troths, Bright and early on June 6th, a very happy wedding party motored to Napanee from the home of Murray Stinson, two miles east of Tamworth, upon the occasion of the marriage to William John Tyner, and garet to John Gee, all of the Town- ship of Sheffield. It was a lovely morning, but no lovelier than the youthful mirth of the happy hearts that were about to take the sacred vows of holy wedlock, which had been preceded by the publications of banns. Only but seldom do two sis- ters marry upon the same day, at the same time, with the same minis ter officiating, and therefore more than usual interest centered in the event, besides the brides and grooms were popular and young. The sol- emnization of the marriages was performed in St. Mary Magdalene church, Napanee, at high noon, and the Rev. J. W. Jones, rector of Tam- worth, officiated. Only imwediate friends were present, Pearl, the bride of William John Tyner, wore a brown traveling suit, a Georgette crepe blouse and a very becoming white hat trimmed with coral trim- ming. Margaret, the bride of John Gee, wore a travelling suit of navy blue a Georgette crepe blouse and 'a lovely hat tastefully trimmed. After the ceremony the bridal party and friends patiook of an 'excellent wed- ding breakfast at the Campbell House. The usual toasts being en- thusiastically honored, the two happy couples took the train west for Toronto, Wallaceburg, Niagara Falls and. Buffalo. Upon their return they will take up their residence in the groom's respective homesteads, accompanied by the heartiest wishes of the whole community. The wed- ding presents were costly, numerous and useful. Mr. Tyner's gift to his bride was a gold pendant set with pearls, and a gold wrist watch, and to Mrs. Gee a goM pendant set with pearls, and to Mr. Gee a set of cuff links, while Mr. Gee's gift to his bride was a gold wrist watch and brooch set with emeralds, and his Sn to Mr. Tyner was a gold stick n.
