Not at All Hard to Decorate, and Makes a Moat Welcome Gift at Any TimeTwo Designs That May be Copied. One of the daintiest fashions Intro duced this season was the hand-painted flippers for evening wear. Can you imagine a more attractive gift for the graduate or bride than a pair of these? The slippers are satin, white or any dellcate tint, and the design may be, of any favorite flower. With filmy gowns of chiffon, lace or net, these lovely slippers add Just the correct touch to produce a perfect cos tume. Any woman with the slightest artist ic ability can paint these slippers and find it a delightful pastime. Two cleverly arranged designs nre given here, which you may transfer to tho slipper in this manner: Over the slipper place a small piece of carbon paper and on top of this the design. Carefully traro each flower with a sharply pointed pencil. Ycu STAKED PATRIOTIC MUSIC will find an exact duplicate of the d eign ou the slipper. Use watorcolors to tint tlio flower. Wild roses are used fur one design. These ;,v always effective on account of their delicate shading. The color ing fchould range from tho fainWvt pink to a "( ,. rose. A daisy I.s;gn is especially lovely. Daisies, ia their simple beauty, make an iippaprialo decoration for tho white per of the bride or the "sweet girl graduate." Violets in an effective arrangement ate good. Shades and tints of violet should bo used to color theso lovely blossoms. A desig.i of forget -me nots is exceed ingly pretty. They should bo tinted palest bine, with yelow centers. The bow knot na y be any color desired; however, pale pink with the blue al ways makes an effective combination. If you deElre to purchase the hand- painted slippers, you will find them rather expensive. When decorated at homo they copt comparatively little. They are the most acceptablo of gifts, delighting any one fortunate enough to receive them. PRESENT AND COMING STYLES Little That Is Really New, Though the Flounce Has Been Estab lished In High Favor. The flounce Is at last established In high favor. And many of the new taf feta frocks with fetching little Jacket wraps to match have as many uk three or four flounces reaching to tho knoo. Of course the flounced skirt in tihort, revealing plainly the pretty buttoned boots which aro now so fashionable. It Is also narrow, tho measurements of the scant flounce being kept within 26 yards width decreed by Mme. Mode.

(CopyriKht. m2, by Associated Literary Press.) "She can't stay here." Jet's eyes flashed ominously. I Standing in the low doorway of the j little log shack, half way up Saw-1 tooth mountain, 6he stared out at the j shabby yellow carryall, with its team j el lean, shaggy horses. i Then where Is she goin' ter j stay, I'd like to know ?" ejaculated i the driver, hoarsely. "She's bound j fer here, and she's paid her way here. nnd she's sick. too. and she tells me j Jim sent for her. You lend a hand here, like a gnod fellow, and help mo j I get her out." ; "Nobody's heme but me." ' "Then you're boss, ain't you? And what you say gins." He grinned up nt her comfortably. Jet's temper was j familiar to him. "She's got to rest ' up some place, and it's thirty miles j back to IUmble Forks." "Why didn't she come before?" "Ask her." said Wilklns. Most begrudging!)' Jet did the hon ors of her home to tho half-unconscious stranger. She helped carry her into the kitchen, and loosened her many wraps. She made strong coffee, and winced a little from her own bit terness when she sa w how young and sick she was. It Is not tho gamo to fight, an enemy who is already down. After the man from Double Forks had driven away, sho went, silently about her work, while the other worn- ( an lay on the bed and watched her. Finally Jet spoke. "Well, you got here, didn't you?" ' "I camo as soon as ever I could." "Yes, you did!" "I did. I started the day after ba by ame." Jet turned around. "What baby?" ; "Why, ours; mine and Jim's." I A pause. Jet looked ns If some-! body had most swiftly and surely I slapped her in her pretty, aggressive face. "You knew 1 had a baby, didn't you? 1 wrote to Jim. He might have told you that much. I guess he didn't care, anyhow." "No. he didn't tdl me." Jet sat down opposite the bed. "When did you tell him about tho ; other the baby?" asked .lt slowly. "Not right away. Ho wrote hack he'd try to send for us both, and to name it after him If It was a boy." "Maybe he meant to." Jet walked to tho open cabin door nnd leaned her back against the casing. A year and n half she had lived down at Double Forks, running a miners' boarding house. She was thirty, and amply able to look after herself. Her pics and cornbread had followed gold strikes in Nevada for years. And she trod her way heart whole until Jim IJarclay showed up. "He got hurt last month. They had to take him up to Trent, where the company's doctor Is. He works for tho Kay-Allan outfit, foreman. Your letter camo hero while ho was gone, so I opened nnd read it. They Bnld ho might die, and I sent you the money to come on quick, to get here and seo him. So long as you was his wife, you had a right to be In at tho finish." Tho other woman was off tho bed before the words were fairly out of Jet's mouth, swaying slightly, she caught Jet's willing band for sup port. "Hut ho Isn't dead, Is her "What do you care?" Jet looked at her curiously. "You wero married to him about two months, wasnt you? And then he left you. I al ways liked Jim, and I hoped all along something might hapjien so we could get married, and swing up further north into porno of tho provinces and start all fresh again. "I want you to know everything first." Jet rose slowly, and crossed tho floor of tho two-room shack. "He's lu yonder. They brought him up here because It's his place. He's alive, but he'll never get well again. Tho company's given him a pension, ko ho won't starve." She took n bat from a nail, put It on her head with a yank forward. "Go on in and say hello. I'm going away now. Whore's tho baby?" "With my mother home. It's a boy." "And named Jim?" she said, care lessly. "TluTe's some money in his room thero, in a lit to burk.skin sack under the pillow. It's his, so you can use it G'iodby. I wouldn't tell him I snt after you .Men don't have to know t-wrythi.-ig, '1 kno'.v. , "Listen, yr.'i t';'.'!icr of Jim's baby! , I meant to j';m;i : ur claim.

Fho Ktopp'-'l a sound from tho other room, tb to ind of soino onj waking, st.r"hii,g tired! on a creaky bed, Fi-hir-g. and cursing soft ly to hlm-sclf a-. pa!n. Then they heard him ca'.l pecvi:h!y, longingly: "Anybody ;t tLcre?" Jet shrueged h'.r shoulders, and smiled, and walked out of tho shack, Ehuttlng tho door after her softly. She could bear Jim's laugh as tho went down afu.r her pony. Thu staked claim was proved up cow. on the Fourth as a matter of course. I int iiow- about a piano to accompany th- si.igers?
