The woman who wants something
soft uses satin. The" woman who

the woman who is inclined to obesity
and would look slender uses satin.
Black, navy and brown are the fa

with regard for effective simplicity.
A quaint piping of plaited satin,

The dots on the skirt are of white

THE GREEN STONE.
The minute Tinker Bob tapped the
two stones together, everything
seemed to change, and change so
quickly. Instantly Tinker stood in
the midst of a large forest. On the
right, of him were trees large and
small. On the left of him were.vines
and underbrush. In front of him
was the strangest sight he ever saw.
Down the winding pathway, coming
straight toward him, was a large
Polecat, walking- on his' hind feet.
With his front paws he carried a large
bundle. As he drew near, Tinker Bob
ventured to speak:
"My name is Tinker Bob, and who
are you?"
"I'm Major Polecat," came the
prompt reply. "This is my home, be
tween yonder log and' this p'ine tree
and all that comes within this space
is mine."
"But just where do you live?"
asked Tinker Bob.
"I live beneath this pine tree.
There is the door." He pointed with
his fore-paw to the hole in the
ground that led under the tree. "All
those who enter to disturb never do
return."
"Whom do you live with?" Tinker
Bob was anxious to know.
"Whom do I live with? I have a
wife and two babies. Toll and Soil.
My wife's name is .Tenny and the
babies are twins, and I am the most
