' Clothes and the Woman Useful Hints "Pew women realize that gloves .are made for protection as well as for adorn ment of tho hands," says Lillian Itus aell. "There are dress gloves and com mon sense gloves; there are proper and improper gloves. When I say improper I mean badly fitting and badly put on Xkvi'es. A clever man onco said that A woman showed as much character in the .way she put on her gloves as In the man ner of her sDeech. "If .pu will observe the gloved hands of women you will deduce to some extent ' their characters. Tho woman who puts on her' gloves and leaves little pointed tips ' to turn over and get in the way of every thing she touches is careless, negligent and untidy, "5Chen there Is tho woman who pulls 'on her gloves so tightly that her fingers come through the ends. She Is of the penetrating kind. She will ferret out everything and go to any extreme to gain her point. She is Inclined to rush, and in her rushing she does not stop to correct her mistakes. "Thero is the woman who always has tho fingers of her gloves twisted and crooked. She never will do anything straight, she would go two blocks out of her way to get somewhere when go ing straight ahead would get Jier there sooner, "The woman who wears her gloves a cOupIo of ulzeo too small, because she thinks it makes her hands look daintier, is mistaken, A. glove too small pinches the hands so that they appear like dummy hands, and an attempt to touch anything ia ridiculous. Such a woman la weak-minded. "There is the strong-minded woman who wears gloves soveral sizes too large for her. She Is masculine. "There is another class of woman who .wears no gloves at' all. Not because aha 'can't afford gloves, but because she wishes to harden her hands to tho ele ments. Buch a woman would risk1 pneu monia by exposing her throat In a snow storm, "Gloves aro a sort of blessing for the comfort they giro, and a decoration to 8, Woman's toilet when worn correctly. II lakes no more time to put a glove on right than to put it on wrong, and there ia llttlo excuse for a badly fitting glove. "There is positively no excuse for col ored gloves, other than gray or tan. The woman who would wear blue or JInk gloves would paint her checks green and her nose Mpo If she, waa told it was fashionable so Jo do. The "well -groomed .woman wears rhlte gloves for evening-, oale tan, gray or white ror afternoon, tan or morning or for motoring and black nly for deAp rncurntns.

"Tho girl who wishes to have really nice, Interesting friends must entirely forego tho companionship of tho brain less fool, the' notorious man and tho man whom all other men dislike. When men dislike a man, by tho way, there is nearly always an excellent reason. Tour friend of the matlneo, George Brown, Is disliked by all sensible men, and you know It. Tot you run the risk of appearing everywhere with him in public! It Is small wonder that the sensible mon hold oft. They fig ure out that If you like tho kind of per son that poor George Brown represents, then you won't like them and deduce from your choice In friends that they certainly won't like you." "But I don't care two pins about George Brown," walled the pretty girl In a despairing tone; "I'd glvo him up to morrow If a nicer man turned up." "Ho won't turn up until you cut out all theso $llly frlonds, then," I answered frankly. "At present tho sensible man will only look at you and, summing you up Inwardly, repeat tho old adage, 'Birds of n feather flock together.'

Ho. set off along the road, whistling cheerfully and kicking up the snow in little' showers before him. The boy plodded along steadily in the direction of the light, seen, dimly through a bejt of leafless, trees, that lay between him and the house. He had hla own opin ion ot the chauffeur's ability to effect a quick repair, and no desire to waste an hour, kicking his heels within A mile of his destination, And If the man, by some happy accident, should succeed in getting tho engine- under way again in a few minutes the car would overtake him on the road.

Til American child has been accused of many things, but the most sertoui) oty these is on entire lack of respect for au thority. This Is not an exaggeration by any means. The, ordinary American child Is Iier own mistress; dhe neither obeys nor takes a correction. She manages all who come her way, and tho household is run to suit her convenience. She hns no hesitation about speaking her mlndln fact, the modern American enna consid ers It her duty to put poor mother' or fa ther right at certain times. The mistaken notion of Individuality In child-roaring Is primarily responsible for this. Mothers are told to lot their chil dren shape their own characters, that tho good old-fashioned corporal punish ment Is R'riilstake. Perhaps this Is true, but there are certain things every well bred child should not bo nllowed to neg- tent. In tho first place, teach tho little folks no "company manner." This Is abso lutely ruinous to their character. It leaches them Insincerity, nnd makes them nn objcot for dislike. Children soon lenrn thlnm anvwav. but If vou lot them think that they should bo any moro pollto or any moro obliging wlien a stranger is present, they will use tho knowledges to your disadvantage. You win soon lino that they becomo rudo and discourteous In tho home circle. Teach children to bo orderly when they nro young, If you don't do It then, there Is very little hope of their becoming so later. Moke thorn stnnd up when they nro addressed by on oldor person. Never let thorn sit In tho easiest chairs while tho older folks have to use straight ones. Thoy must bo tralnod to be thoughtful nnd considerate of others. The Sewing Table Have you seen tho now Martha Wash ington sewing tables? They are the handiest things you can Imagine for tho "stitch In tlmo." The most attractive thing about them Is that they como In almost any finish walnut, mahogany, oak and the dearest little ones In wicker work. Milady has only to drop her col lars, cuffs, ruffles and furbelows In tho largo openings on the sides and there they will stay until she has time to sew them on horself. Tho tables aro oval shaped and the two sides aro Just a sort of cupboard for odd pieces of material and such things. The centre of the table Is a Berlcs of drawers, each ono for a different purpose. Tho top drawer is very shallow ana inside is a ruck for spools In fact, for several of them. The Idea Is very useful, as there Is nothing moro annoying than to have to look all ovor for your materials when you are ready to work. The other draw ers aro for tho Innumerable things which seem to accumulate In some mysterious way around the sowing room. If Mrs. Washington really used one of these delightful affairs, tho modern woman does well to Imitate her, as they arc so attractive and useful. To Use Up White Shoes. When, after many cleanings, white shoos look grey and shabby, they can bo made a pretty brown by applying saffron. Mix six drops of saffron with three tablespoonfuls" of olive oil. Clean shoes well: reinovo dark spots when pos slblo, and then apply two coats of the mixture with a piece of clean flannel. on his way more determined than ever to accomplish tho Journey. Thoro was something about It that appealed to his love of adventure. He liked to think that there were dangers lurking In the dark ness. For all he knew to the contrary, that black-bearded doctor might have chosen this particular night to make an other attempt to carry him off. He chuckled with Joy at the very thought of it. He'd astonish tho fellow when ho whipped out that Jolly llttlo pistol. He pictured himself In a scene of remark able heroism. Thero would be bloodshed, of course. It would be splendid some thing to talk about for the rest of one's life, He shifted the weapon into the right-hand pocket of his overcoat, and kept his fingers on the butt of It "They won't find mo asleep " ho said to himself. Then, suddenly, he tripped over something and fell headlong to tho ground, and before he could rise there was a blanket over his head, and a most horrible smell that took away his breath. Ho screamed and struggled, antt tried to tear away the blanket with his hands. All thought of the weipon had vanished from his mind, kills only desire was to free himself from the horrible thing that seemed to be strangling him to draw a breath of fresh air Into his bursting lungs. Then strange scenes be gan to flit quickly through his brain visions of flowers and colored lights, and sunshine on blue water,- 'Then he slipped down into a great darkness. When Wimberley1' came to his senses his head was free, and he was lying on his back on a soft bed ot hay. The light of a small bull's-eye lantern showed him the rafters of a low, narrow shed and tho dim figure of a man. "Feeling better, sonny?" said a clear, quiet voice. The boy moaned and closed nls yes. He was still daxed by the fumes of the chloroform and hla head ached Violently, He was also conscious ot, failure. Ho had certainly not emerged from the contest with flying colors. Of course, they had his pistol. And now he was quite helpless. "Had to do 1U sonny," the man con tinued. "But we're not going to harm you If you behave yourself and your folk come up to the scratch with the brass." "Where am It" queried Wimberley; in p. faint voice. The man laughed and came a little closer so that the light streamed up on to hla face. . "I think we've met before, sonny." ' ' "Yea Dootor Anderson." whispered the boy. "I thought so." Then hp groaned and .turned .over on his. side, and almost gave a cry of Joy a something hard dig itself into bis thigh. They had not. taken his ptsto) after all, Of course,' now he came to think of it more clearly It would never havo occurred to them to search him for a weapon. And the Jolly little thing was there chock full of cartridges. Well, there would bo. some fun now. The excruciating pain of his headache seemed to vanish in the Joyous anticipation of a rally splendid scene. It was a pity there was no one there to see it. Ho would have liked the whole school' to bo, watching: him mas ters and alU ' For nearly A minute there was silence. Then a door creaked on Its. htnges and a oold blast 'of air rushed Into the shed.

Your Doroh can bo arranged so that you have the Steam heat at the based of tho wall nnd open windows at tho top. These windows are on rollers, and can be pushed open, one or moro at a time, as you choos'o.

"Or have we got to put you to sleep agaln7" Wimberley laughed. "I'll comotrmletly," ho replied. "It's rather fun the sort of thing one reads of in a book." Doctor Anderson gripped him by the arm and helped him to his feet. Tho other man picked up the lantern and opened the door. Thoy made their way out Into tho driving snow, Anderson still holding the boy, by his arm. Wlmberley's heart beat quickly oa they tramped over the rought ground toward the river. His teeth chattered and he was thoroughly frightened, not at the thought of what might happen to him, but at the Idea of taking that ugly little pistol out of his pocket and shooting one, perhaps both, of tH'o men. All the glamour of the situation hod faded away. He saw nothing but the beastly side of it. It was easy enough to fire at a target, but to flro at a human being, with the knowledge that the man might crumpie up and fall down and bleed to death did not seem such a very tine thing after all. Somehow it seemed all very different from the scenes of bloodshed and he-, r'olsm he had read about They reached the bank of the river and tho swift stream looked black as ink In contrast to the snow-covered fields on either side of it Tho small man placed the lantern on the ground and stepped into the boat and began to unfasten the painter that was tied to the stump of a willow tree. Anderson let go of the boy's arm and picked up the lantern, Wimber ley felt that tho time had como to do something. He did noji quite know what he would do, but in any case he was not going to step Into the boat. "Now then, sonny," said Anderson. "You're going a voyage-quite like a Btory book, isn't It?" "Not much," said Wimberley, and he turned and ran as fast as his legs could carry him. It was an Ignominious end ing to what had promised to be a glorious adventure. But the end was not be as peaceful as ho thought Before lie had gone a hun dred yards ' Anderson overtook him, gripped him by the shoulder and flung him to the ground. "You young devil," said the man. "Well, now we'll havo to quiet you,'" and kneeling down on the boy's legs, he drew a cloth out of his pocket and a small glass bottle, "Don't you do that," screamed Wlmber leyi "if you do that, I'll kill you-kjll you kill you" The man laughed and sprinkled some of the chloroform on the cloth.

Yes, the new sports suit is exceedingly smart It is a Scotch tweod of a deop brown shod that exactly matches the color of my eyes.
