RT TALE
NOW tlmt it Is u settled fact that
one i)loco dresses for fall share
popularity wltli stiltH. for general anil
utreet wear, It Is agreeable to find tliat
the new tnotfeln on display are very
trim and neat looking. There la a
vogue for intensely feminine stylets,
und this promotes the liking for
frocks to take the place of suits on
ttiu street and elsewhere. Suits them
selves are rarely built on severe lines,
although (hero Is never a time when
n plain suit, beautifully tailored, need
make any excuse for Itself, It. is al
ways good. But the fall season
promises a variety of styles and ornu
mentation In frocks' that are of sub
Htantinl materials and destined to do
much service.
All these circumstances pave the
wny for such smart examples of the
one-piece frock as that shown above.
They are made, as suits ore, of depend
uhle wool fabrics In dark colors
wrge. twill, broadcloth, duvetyn
mid the like, nnd a llttlo study of
SWAN SONG OF
SUMMKK huts, so fur as designers
of them are concerned, will soon
be a thing of the past, for designers
are always looking forward and fash
ioning headweur for the duys to come.
But they forco their thoughts nway
from summertime reluctantly; one Is
mire of tlutt when the lust of their
efforts tlin hats of lute Humiuer---mnkc
their appearance. They seem
to he the most exquisite of all milli
nery, real poems of apparel like the
fabled last'song of the swan sweeter
than all others.
A hat like that shown at the top of
the group entitled to more than a
brief season, since It Is a beautiful
nnd comparatively staple style. It has
n round, well-proportioned crown of
chrysanthemum braid, and a wide
brim which may bo of any light,
smooth braid or of a sheer fabric. For
trimming there Is n hand and how of
ribbon about iho crown, old blue In
color, that makes a delightful hack
ground, like the summer sky, for a
flat wreath of small flowers posed
against It. Sometimes a similar shape
In leghorn or hemp or other braid In
a light color dispenses with the rib
bon band, has the llowers massed
ngaln-t the crown, and both crown and
wreath veiled with mallnes. The de
si-: $ , ?
these models will impress some new
style points on the mind. In the frock
which Is shown above, u decorating
on the skirt, of braid, simulating
a neat looking embroidery. Is a uew
departure. The longer waistline Is an
important Item as Is also the
wide satin girdle with half-length
sash fashioned with long fringe
at the end. Embroidery, like that
on the skirt, emphasizes the Jacket
effect In the bodice and dethie.i
the cuffs on the three-miarter length
sleeves. There Is' a plain narrow
vestee of duvetyn. with little round
buttons set In m row, which may he in
n vivid or quiet rolor, or there may
be two or three vestees furnished for
one dress, so that one may change to
suit occasions. This Is a dusblng lit
tle frock with a decided Spanish fla
vor, that 'may be carried out in the
hut worn with It. There Is n mere
suggestion of It In the small headpiece
with upturned brim that has lu?en
chosen and shown In the photograph.
SUMMER HATS
signer might have left oft here and
still have presented a pretty and cred
itable hat to the season ; but a facing
of fine black chantllly lace, falling
away about the edge of the under
brim, gives this particular model nn
Individual and distinctive tnticji. Im
mensely becoming and full of class
At the left of the group a represcnt
athe of Paris holdjs Its charming
own, In a leghorn shape covered with
rose petals made of organdie. It has
a black velvet band about the crown,
terminating In a bow. One can Imag
ine It In white or In any pale tint and
picture n thing of beauty to the mind.
In the hat at the right lace hair
hrald Is applied to a straw shape In
n different color. Kor trimming It has
a hand and rosette of narrow black
velvet ribbon, the rosette resembling
a blossom. It Is centered with u Jet
cabochon and each of Its loops Is
tipped with a Jet head. There are two
hanging ends of velvet ribbon, at I ho
end of each n little Jet ornament. A
mere description cannot do Justice to
this handsome decoration of velvet
ribbon.
THE HONORED CAT.
"1, tne-ow, me-ow, me-ow." .-nld Wop
Me the cat, "was Interviewed after
my trip. And would you like to know
what that means?
",I can see and reel Hint you would
so I will tell you. When n person Is
Interviewed It means that person Is
talked to and asked questions and that
people write down what he or she has
said because it Is so Important. And
the opinions' of famous people are so
worth while. ,
"Well, now jhnt Is what Is being
none with Wopsle, the cat, or rather
I should sny that was what was done.
Ir now It Is somo time since I had
my memorable trip and since folks
wmitril to hear about me.
"Hut I believe there are a number
or boys and girls who haven't heard
about me who would like to. And so
1 am telling my story to those who
would like to hear it.
"I am not telling all that I told In
my other Interviews; in fact, this Is
more of n hearj'to-hcart talk.
"You know whet that means? It
means more of a talk where we tell
secrets and that Is the way I am will
ing to talk to the boys and girls,
"I will tell them what I said to the
big people who came to Interview me
and I will tell you what really hap
pened and then I will tell you a few
of those little personal touches which
mean so much,
"You know how I mean, boys and
girls. People so like to hear the
things about great people that are
simple, things they might, do them
selves, such as use tooth brushed,
or perhaps not quite so simple as that.
"Well, to get back to where I wrw,
at the point of which I open my story.
"I wus an honored cat. I still am
an honored cat, for that honor can
never be taken away from me.
"I was taken along in an airship as
a mascot. Now that In Itself Is not
so wonderful, as air ships are so nu
merous these days, hut I was taken
along In one which went right across
the Atlantic ocean. '
"Yes, Wopsle, the cat, went along
as mascot In one of the great big ships
that made one of the great big won
derful lllghts across the great big
Atlantic ocean.
"When I got back from my Journey
my picture was taken with my master.
Looked at Them.
and it was? printed In many papers.
They asked me what I thought of Hy
ing over the ocean In the air.
"1 told them, but you can never he
sure about these people getting things
straight.
"I looked at them and blinked In n
line way so they would he able to say
that Wopsle's expression was calm
and line and noble.
"I thought that would sound well,'
and I thought that 1 would put a mod
est touch of humor Into my account.
That Is. I wouldn't appear conceited,
and ir I made a joke they would see
that. I wasn't thinking of the glory that
had come to me. but wns merely the
same, natural, sensible cat I had al
ways In en.
"So I looked at them and smiled,'
nnd I said,
"'Ah. friends, an nlrshln Is. differ-
ent from garbage. palls.'
"I never knew why they forgot to
say that about me when they wrote
about me. TluVv were too anxious ti
write about the trip I suppose, and
they lacked a sense of humor them
selves.
"But I'll tell you. boys and girls,
that while an airship Is very different
from a srarhauo nail It doesn't xnoll
one for the garbage pall In the future.
"There are some rreutures who have
a taste of luxury and cannot stand
going back to their simple pleasures
again.
"But not so with Wonsle. the cut
Though I have sailed the great At'
lantlc. though I have seen many won
derful thltiL's. I'm still a regular cnu
a cat who doesn't look down upon a
garbage pull, no, no, Indeed.
"That Is where lienor is due wlii'it

Safe to Say That Father's Prediction
Turned Out to Be Absolutely
Correct
Tho sweetly peaceful scene In the
little sitting room was suddenly dis
turbed by a loud yell, nnd the honored
guest sprang wildly from the chair
Into which he had just sunk, while thu
daughter or the house felt her face
grou pale.
She had had hopes from this visit.
Alas, poor girl, were they to be
blighted?
But father took the matter ami his
pmall son (Irmly In hand. With n
graceful apology he removed the bent
pin from the chnlr nnd the aforesaid
small boy from the room.
".Vow.-look here, Charles," ho said
sternly, In the back yard, "why did you
do It?"
"It -It was nn experiment, father!"
faltered the laddie.
"An experiment 1" snorted father.
"The only man who has visited your
poor sls'er for years, and you go nnd
drive l.tm nwnyl"
"Well, dad," explained the boy,
"he advertises that he Is n painless
dentist, an' 1 wanted to llnd out If It
was tn.-e. an' It wasn't. You should
have heard him yell!"
"Yes," was the father's grim com
ment. "And some one else Is going
to henr you yell now I"
A Friend In Need.
Mrs. Ii'latbush Who Is that mnn
with the red nose you just bowed to?
Mr. Rlathush Oh, he's a man 1 met
out west.
"lie Is certainly not a prohibitionist.
Is lie?"
"Why, I never had occasion to ask
him, dear."
"But how did you happen to meet
him?"
"Well, we were traveling out of Mil
waukee on the same train one night.
He had a bottle, and I discovered that

Where one used it in place of coffee,
in the beginning, tens of thousands
drink it today and prefer it to coffee.

Special Care of Baby.
Thnt Baby shotflihave n bed of Its own all nro agreed. Yet It
Is more reasonable for an infant to sleep with grown-ups than to ubo
a man's medicine in an attempt to regulate the delicate organicm of
that came infant. Either practice is to be 6hunned. Neither would
be tolerated by specialists in children's diseases.
Your Physician will tell you that Baby's medicine must bo
prepared with even greater caro than Baby's food.
A Babys stomach when in good health is too often disarranged
by improper food. Could you for a moment, then, think of giving
to your ailing child anything but a medicine especially prepared
for Infants and Children ? Don't be deceived.
Make a mental note of this: It is important, Mothers, that
you should remember that to function well, tho digestive organs of
your Baby must receive special care. No Baby is so abnormal that
the desired results may be had from the use of medicines primarily
prepared for gnwn-ups.

Though, as It Turned Out. It Was at
the Cost of Some Personal
Discomfort.
Marshall, who Is live, lives In n
lint building. He Is if renl hoy nnd
although he has n reur yard and n
sand pile In which to play, his mother
has more or less troublo keeping him
off the streets. A neighbor snw him
across the street one morning nnd the
next day called Jits attention to tho
fact that Jio was out of the zone map
ped for him. He wns one of tho
busy ones nbout a vegetable wagon.
"Yes," he said, "I had to got somo
sings." The next morning ho nsked
his mother for tho market basket. Ilo
Immediately disappeared and soon re
turned, accompanied by the vegetable
num. In the basket were three pounds
of potatoes, a box of berries and two
cnntaloupes. Mother had to settle
whether she needed the goods or not.
At any rate, Marshall made his word
good with the neighbor that he had
to get "somo sings." When queH
tloned by the same neighbor nbout his
shopping expedition he said: "Yes,
and mother spanked me, too."
Heavy Traffic.
They seldom crowd the roads In
northern .Minnesota, hut on our last
tour, when wn headed into a tamarack
RwniniK and had to tnke our top off
because of the low-hanging trees, we
did feel a trllle uncertain about the
route,
"Do many cars travel this rond?"
we asked some children who happened
along.
"Oh, yes," came tho proud reply;
"lots of 'em. One cnnio Inst year nnd
one this year, an' now you're here,
too!"
