Queen's Gown Has Charm.
The queen's gown, eacli year a robe
lovely eiy>ugh to conjure with, bore
out it's traditional charm.
It Was fashioned of white crepe
without a suggestion of a halt, ever
silver lace. A Persian pattern of
crystals covered the entire gown,
with four rows of inch-wide crystal
fringe completing the design on the
skirt.
The hemline, cut IS inches from
the floor, was finished with a six inch
fringe of rhinestones and crystals,
through which gleamed silken ankles,
silver clad.
At the right side of the gown a long
fringe of crystal and brilliants, drip
ped dewily from a low waistline and
on the left uncurled white ostrich,
each filmy feathered frond Sipped
with a rhinestone, cascaded from hip
to hem.
The neckline was cut low and round
back and front.
The straight coronet of rhinestones
set in silver, with Its six-inch dia
dem in front, sparkled over fjusen
Emma s glowing eyes. The necklace,
with Its pendant and the two brace
lets, set off hrr neck and arras.
Miss Hoagland wore the traditional
court train of silver oloth hoardered
in sequins, and lined with satin,
which Mrs. Willard Millard wore for
the first time three years ago, and in
which Miss Gertrude Stout and Miss
Eleanor Barkley have since appeared.
It has great dignity and grace cut
with a V neck and fastened on the
straight shoulders of the graceful
queen, with silver cords.
Slippers of silver brocade and rhlne
stone buckles completed the royal
ensemble.
After the ball. Miss Hoagland and
her escort, John Reed, were guests of
Miss Josephine Schurmnn at sapper
at the Omaha club, where Miss Hoag
lnnd's sister, Helen, and Mr. Elliott

Whatever he must fare
—Jimmy Skunk.
A Perfect Gentleman.
Jimmy Skunk is nothing if not a
gentleman. Of course, h* had been
provoked when he was caught in that
box trap of Farmer Brown’s Bov.
He had been still more provoked when
he had been dropped out of it into a
barrel. He felt that he had been
treated very rudely. But there had
been no one on whom to use that lit
tle scent (run of his, and so he hadn't
used it. It didn't take him more than
a minute to find out that he was just
as much a prisoner in that, barrel as
he had been in the box trap. Tou see,
he couldn't climb up the sides of the
barrel.
Now, Jimmy Is a philosopher as well

things as they are. Jimmy couldn't
get. out of that barrel, but he could
curl up for a nap. So that is what
he did. He was left undisturbed for
quite a.while, and so it happened that
he was asleep when Farmer Brown's
Boy tiptoed up and threw a blanket
over the top of that barrel. Then,
taking care to keep the blanket over
the top, Farmer Brown's Boy very
gently picked up the barrel and car
ried it outdoors. He carried it some
distance away from the house and the
barn. Then, ns gently as he had
picked it up, he set it down.
He went back to the barn and got
a rake. Then he returned to the bar
rel. He pulled off the blanket from
over the top. Then with the rake he
reached out and got hold of the edge
of the barrel between the teeth of the
rake. Slowly and carefully he pushed
the barrel over and gradually let It
down until it gently came to rest on
Its side. Then Farmer Brown's Boy
hastily backed away and waited.
He didn't have to wait long. Jimmy
had been wakened by the moving or
the barrel! The Instant that barrel
came to rest 'on Its side Jimmy saw
that the way was clear for him to get
out. He wasn't afraid to go out. He
didn't run out of that harrel, as some
of his more timid neighbors would
have done. He walked out of that
barrel slowly and In a dignified way.

Brown's Boy, grinning at him a short

Brown's Boy. He knew him as a
friend. He didn't know that Farmer
Brown’s Boy had been the cauae of
his recent troubles, hut he felt pretty
sure that Farmer Brown's Boy had
helped him out of those troubles.
Jimmy lowered his big tail. Then,
without hurrying in the least and act
ing for all the world as If nothing un
usual had happened, he walked away.
