Boastfulness of any kind would have seemed too crudely out of place with her. Those deep eyes would asâ€" suredly have detected it. She disengaged the hand with gentle firmness. " I should like it immensely," she said. "Right! Then when shall it be, and shall it be pictures or a theatre?" 1 was wondering was would come to a show of these days."

So far there was no boredom for Adam in listening to Norval on his special subject. Apart from having been everywhere, the man possessed a fascinating insight into the causes of the differing techâ€" nique of the world‘s greatest crafts men, and the two men found themâ€" selves wandering about from room to "Mr. Meriston wants to tell you about his invention," he called from the kitchen. "That exciting thing that sceares people out of their wits." Norval had risen from his ~chair at the sound of their entrance. "It‘s very kind of Mr. Meriston to come to see me," he replied with a hint of ambiguity in his tone. } They had returned to the corner before he realised that he might be losing her. "May I come as far as the shop with you?" he asked with an abrupt return to timidity. "But surely you‘re coming to tea?" "Sure your father won‘t mind?" "He‘ll be delighted to have comâ€" pany. He needs someone to talk to if only to take his mind off his worâ€" ries. You‘ll have to listen to the weariest old yarns about his adventâ€" ures when he was scouring Europe for big London firms and later on for himself. He‘s marvellous on antiâ€" ques though." HANDS AND KNEES _ CHAPPED BY SNOW AND WIND Very masterfully he relieved her of a small basket. "But there‘s nothing in it. I don‘t like to see men carrying backets. It makes them look silly." THE CHAIRS UPSTAIRS His story about the valve was a disconnected one now. His mind was occupied with the things she had said. "It‘s no good," he broke out at length. "I just can‘t say anything sensible just now. Here, let me carry that basket." "Come on," she said quickly. "Toll me more about your valve and don‘t look at me again, not for ever so long." He looked at her, caught the dark velvety eyes with his glance, held them for so long as it took for his look to quell the mockery. "I‘ve been wanting to know you for months." "Perhaps you won‘t any longer when you really do know me." CHAPPED SKIN? NOI "I‘ve got to get some butter in here," she said at last. "Tell me the rest between shops, will you?

"I was thinking about you," â€" he HINDS RELIEVES TORONTO On the other hand, bright colors are to be recommended. For evening wear, choose simple clinging gowns in preference to frilly frocks or "robes de style." Never commit the mistake of wearing ballon sleeves, bands of fur, or important trimming above the elbows, and never, never go in for cape silhouettes. You will avoid threeâ€"quarterâ€"length coats like the plague. If you are thinking about a patterned material choose stripes rather than checks and little designs in preference to large. If you are small . . . there are many daring fashions that you must deny yourself. For example, you will avoid twoâ€"color frocks in which the top is lighter than the skirt, or viceâ€" versa. This type dress, becoming to a tall woman, will cut you off at the waist and make you look smaller than you really are. Soft, clinging silks are more advisâ€" able than taffetas and failles and many of the new blistered and quiltâ€" ed materials, but the heavy elastic crepes and "roches" are particularly adapted to the tall woman‘s needs. Threeâ€"quarter tunics and twoâ€"tone dresses and indeed any combination that breaks the line between the thighs and knees is to be recommendâ€" ed. Brimmed hats and sleeve interâ€" ests both help to reduce height. "Yes," she replied, "but with what precaution! Everything she puts on exaggerates and becomes too imporâ€" tant." If you are tall . . . watch out against "striking" clothes. It is a mistaken idea that the tall woman can get away with daring colors and daring line. The writer understood this while talking recently to a well known designer about a tall, elegant woman client. y "How you must enjoy dressing her!"

Fashion Tips For All Women Norval was by now several steps ahead of them. It was obviously a moment to dare, and Adam bent his head until the soft hair above her ear brushed his cheek. His lips sought hers, but wilfully she turned her head away, and his lips caressâ€" ed a tiny white ear for a moment before they whispered against its whiteness: "Seylla!" \ So presentlyâ€" the three of them made their way upstairs, Norval leading, and the younger two manâ€" aging for some time to squeeze up the narrow staircase abreast. â€" By the time they reached the foot of the top flight, where the stairs beâ€" came very narrow indeed, Adam was emboldened to put his arm about her. To him, it seemed that, deliberately, she moved just a little closer towards him. But perhaps‘ that was due to the increasing narâ€" rowness of the stairs. ‘ Scylla fell in with the suggestion readily. "Oh, yes, you really must see them again," she cried, "our five crooked chairs.

Milam, secreiary _ of the American Library Association. | The people of Springficld, Mass., *~ | said, a few years ago, were reading about $85 worth of books per inhabiâ€" tant per year at a per capita cost of 90 cents. The books read by the users of the Albany, New Yor, Public Library last year would have cost, if each reader had purchased them individually, $2,000,000. _ Bu: the total cost for upkeep of the libâ€" rary was only about oneeightcenth of this sum, Mr. Milam said. Figures like these have been put before the people by librarians in the various states and citizen reâ€" sponse has been forthcoming, it is found. In Yankton, S.D., many civic and business organizations joined in resolutions to include in any perâ€" manent plan of taxation some proâ€" vision for at least partial state supâ€" port of library service as a part of the educational system. In many states librarians are getting th support of citizens, it is found, either in book drives, meetings encourage legislation for funds {~r the local library, The people of Haverhill were told that they had borrowed 400,000 books last year, and if they had had to buy these it would have cost them $1,000,000. The 67.5 cents apiece spent from the citizens‘ taxes coâ€" operatively last year, plus a similar 15.7 cents from the library endowâ€" ments, enabled the public library to provide Haverhill folks with $1,000,â€" 000 worth of books. They were studying how to build chicken houses, market eggs, select feed, and were getting other know!â€" edge on processes necessary for the poultry man who would meet comâ€" petition and succeed in the pouliry business. From this, concrete figurâ€" es were worked out by the librarian for the citizens to ponder. But to speak further of the chickens. It was in the Haverhil}, Mass., public library where it was discovered that more than 100 peoâ€" ple were borrowing a certain 12 volâ€" umes on poultry farming. Citizens in many parts of the country have been aroused too to the practical value of libraries and have organized what is becoming a citizen library movement to stand back of public libraries. _ Though chickens may seem like a far cackle from Shakespeare and Plato, concrete figures like these, reâ€" ported recently to the American Library Association here, indicated the value in dollars and cents that libraries are giving the people. So many books "with a job" have been borrowed from libraries in the last few years that librarians have been appealing to the citizens for support on the ground of the service actualâ€" ly being given, it is found. poultry farming.
