It seems the electric battery was all out

the key In It was In the pocket of the coat
I had left In the machine, so I asked Jim
to get it, and ald: "We'll wait here while
you get us our key." Jim had to go and
dig out everything In the car while I talked
to Tom. W were having a lovely time and
Jim finally called up that he couldn't find
the key. I said It must be there, so he
looked all over again. Then I suddenly dis
covered It in the pocket of the Jacket I
had on.
Tom had a, sense of humor then and he
and I both told Jim how funny we thought
It was. I asked him te come In and Tom
asked him to very cordially also, but he
said he would have to be right off. Amy is
coming this afternoon and Is going to bring
the cat In with her. I made a dark green
bag to put It In.
Last year when I brought It to New
York I carried It in a basket. It was
a dreadful journey. It started a dismal
howling the minute I got in the train I
soothed it and It stopped for a while. One
or two men I know who generally were
impossible to lose If they caught sight of
me on that train, stopped to greet me on
their way to the smoking car and on hear
ing low groans from the basket only
stopped very short time,
Walter Hemingway, Who always sees me
across the ferry, sat down beside me, but
long before we had reached Long Island
City, discovered that he had to talk busi
ness with a man in the smoking car. I
Jlii t care, as I would almost just as lief
listen to the cat as to htm. and besides I
didn't have to bother o answer the for
mer. As we neared the station its screams
became really terrific. Two old ladles evi
dently thought I was ill treating It and
simply glared at me.
In the ferry I was positive It was having
a fit of some kind Inside the basket, but I
didn't dare to look in to find out. The cords
that boum? the lid on strained and nearly
broke. It finally became exhausted and Its
cries subsided Into heartrending, deep
throated moans, which rose again to pierc
ing yells as the ferry reached Its landing.
After I had finished tne bag for It the
other day we had a sort of dress rehearsal
and tried It on. After we had tied It around
its neck It seemed to fall Into a sort of
trance and gave only one long drawn out
howl Just before we removed the bag.
Amy said nervously she hoped it wouldn't
do that on the. train. I said: "Oh, no
darling, of course it won't. Why should UT"
And It really ought not to In that handsome
covering, which Is a most becoming color
to Its fur. This is Just before I go to bed.
I went to meet Amy In a taxi, as we had
arranged, and I could hear the cat a long
distance away.
She got tt in the cab with some difficulty,
and It seemed to sort of faint away in
the corner. The bag looked simply worn

giving the sad passenger a chance to call
an avlcab and go back ashore!" exclaimed
Friend Wife.
"At last the deep sea going hack!" de
clared the Tired Business Man. "Oreat for
the paenger who thought he fancied life
on the hounding billows, but didn't feel
very lifelike when he got there. I can't
see how they'll be able to rio. without one
of those on every liner except the penny-a-llners
any more than they can now do
without the wireless. The time hss cer
tainly come, as the walrus said, to talk of
many things, Including ships, sealing wax,
aviacati and wlnir.
"When these little Jumpers start leaping
off the backs of steamers we will know
how to flee the ocean greyhound, as it
were. When there's a Jonah on board, don't
fling him carelessly overboard to Impair his
reputation for veracity and to contradict all
scientific research on the Interior decora
tion of whales, but Just put him In a bi
plane and let him blp. I wouldn't bo at all
surprised If they would commence taking
stowaways ashore In monoplanes when the
adventurous youths are dragged shrieking
from the hold.
'Cashiers, departing hastily for foreign
shores, w hero extradition papers as well as
extra edition paper are not known, may
find It convenient to charter the aerocab
to duck back toward Canada If they learn
that the wireless Is gossipplng about de
tectives waiting at the pier for them. And
as for smuggling whew! Well, all I have
to say It that the Judges will have to Im
pose heavler-than-Rlr fines to stop any
thing, once it works. The customs people
will be bothered by 'flies' all year long.
"Then there Is the gay hubby who sends
hla wife abroad for the summer. Imagine
his utter chagrin if after seeing her depart
on the steamer, he started out to do a lit
tle village painting In rosy tints, with roof
garden high life and all that sort of thing,
only to have his wife como winulng buck,
making one stop here for gasoline In her
transcontinental flight to Reno. The wings
of the morning would have nothing on the
wings of the mourning grass widows.
"Of course, the squeamish passenger
might find he was jumping off the rolling
pin into the flier, and It might be merely
exchanging mal de mer for mal de air.

Waves of air might be marcelled Just the
same as waves of oca;in. And there Is al
ways the chance of suddenly changing from
an aviator to a wavlatm, On should al
ways take along a bathing suit or at least
a pa'r of goloshe when flyfng from the
back porch of a transatlantic, steamer.
"If the aerocab breaks down I supposa
they could get a sea hoss. Then again,
maybe not. Anyway, in that case they'd
chsrge by water meter for the ride back.
They could eat fish. Any one who drops
Into the ocean can at least be aura of a
flounder. Put a 'fare' on on of thos aero
planes would be In a most distressing plight
if the aviator couldn't make Ma file ba
'a'led.' I suppose when the erase for hav
ing an aeroplane tender spreads to the old
masted windjammer we can speak of their
ped art tire as 'plane sailing.
"It strikes me that Thanksgiving day Is
going to be a pretty cold day to try any
flying. Maybe th now will fly or th
cost of living soar, which will make th
utllmate consumer sore, too, but It seems
poor Judgment to pick weather calculated
to strike up through the boot soles. Sum
mer time Is fly time."

I don't find our name her In th

quarter Inches by two and three-quarter
Inches, with four sixes coining between.
In mourning cards there are five differ
ent widths of bordering. The deepest, used
by a widow only, measure three-eighth
of an Inch deep. A woman mourning a
daughter or son uses the next width, which
Is a Uttl less than three-eighths of an
lech deep. A daughter -order th blaok
border slightly narrower when wearing
mourning for a parent, and the same
Width 1 used for sister and brother

This year preference la given to the

The size of the lettering I regulated by

length of the name.
The cost of the shaded French script
style of lettering, for plat and fifty cards,
name only. Is 3; engraving corner lines,
day or address, 12.25 for each line. Th
haded old English style will cost the same.
Black French script style of lettering. In
cluding plate and fifty cards, can be done
for $2.50, extra line $1 60 each. The Gothic
style of lettering costu 60 cents less, or If
one prefers the Roman style of lettering
It can be had at the same price.
The simple script style Is Inexpensive.
A plate will be engraved in this lettering
and fifty cards be printed for $1. For en
graving corner lines an extra charge of 36

One hundred visiting card will be
printed from a plate for o cents. Fifty
cards with mourning border will cost 76

I answered her m thl wey: An old rose
had 1 one that will harmonise with the
walls and th touch of yellow In th oak.
Incidentally I suggested that a material
combining a tone of brown with yellow
would be a striking effect, and that while
old ros would be pretty on the mantel
pieces, something more distinctive might
be used for the doorway on th side wher
the wall shows cream.
Th dining room and parlor, according
to the correspondent, have "oriental wall
paper." Precisely what this Is I am a
little in doubt, but I take It for granted
that It means th ground Is thickly cov
ered with a design showing rich eastern
coloring. If tbe latter 1 true, plain ef
fects In hanging must be used In th door
ways, for nothing Is mora confusing to the
ye than a Jumble of designs, even though
th color may accord.
I should choose for cream walls a portiere
having a brown ground with large pattern,
preferably conventional. In yellow. There
are such colorings In fabric which ar
coarse In texture and thick which will
wear a long time and are artistic. Some
of these are cotton and wool, or cotton
with a little silk. Th kind of material Pj
of no consequence, as long as It is heavy
enough to hang in graceful fold. Such
portieres do not require lining and the
best finish I a hem, without fringe, unless
the latter be not more than an Inch wide.
These curtains should hang from rods, the
tops being pleated or left plain, aa the
home-maker prefers.
- For th oriental room plain fabrioa must
be chosen for th door. A plain linen and
silk fabrlo, th ground of whloh I a dull
red, through which runs a line of black,
would be effective.
Should something of this kind be used I
would bave dull red mantel hangings and
a silk with a gold line. The gold will pre
vent any heaviness. HELEN HOWE.
