Tolling th tale to another group, I
Dnm informed that the fourteen-year-old
jtfeter of one p-f these children kept her

hot bridge gains. What woljld happen,

All, atony the line, from the .toddler to
the debutante, their scheme of life la

,yrUea are no longer the simple frolics
they used to be.
Not lonff ago I was Invited to "look
on" at a party given for a little girl of
even years, and from tliq tlmo the tiny
guests wore dropped at the house to the
minute of thalr leaving a net program was
carried out. A professional entertatner,
magician and slolght-of-hand artist, a
moving-picture performance, a profes

AFTEIt an afternoon spent in pressing
X"i one's nose against shop windows, a
perilous undertaking to such as I, ona
comes to the conclusion that Dame rash
Ion's devotees will, like Mercury, have
wlngod feet this winter, but unllko their
prototype their wings, being the gossa
mer wings of a butterfly, will take them
no further than the haunts of other
butterflies.
Whirh to occasioned by the unusual
number of butterfly designs on dainty
slippers and daintier hosiery. Tho slip
pers themselves, dainty pointed satin
affairs with fairly long vamps, are ap
pearing Willi the large buckles again,
several of those on display being dec
orated with buckles of rhlnestones In a
butterfly design! others with red and
black beads, nnd sapphires nnd rhlne
stones in more buttorfly designs.
Not satisfied with thdso pn tho slippers,
tho some shop displayed a luscious pair
of stockings with the. Instep thickly en
crusted with butterflies In colored beads.
Other stockings, presumably for tho Oc
tober bride, were of sheer silk In a doll

of thread lace.

Th Great Volley Mill, that hlstorlo es
tablishment lying between Paoll and Vat
ley Forge, which was old when Washing
ton and his troops went Into thels winter
camp, has a new mistress, a girl ns young
and as enthusiasts as its first -Mistress
Jerman whose romantic story still Imbues
the place with a charm greater than that
which mars age can give.
Tho new mistress Is th manager and gen
eral factotum of the mill. Bhe Is Miss
Pauline Islnger, graduate dietitian of Drexel
Institute, and ardent enthusiast on tho sub
ject of tho superiority of old methods of
milling over new.
For 200 years ever since 1710, when
Thomas Jerman, a Welshman, settled In tho
Chester Valley nnd built his mill the es
tablishment has been In operation. Its old
buhr stones slowly and thoroughly grinding
out grain and wheat In a most primitive
fashion.
But even a primitive method can bo
capitalised In these days, nnd when Ulchard
Ilaughton bought the place somo time ogo
he decided to give it. It possible, something
mora than a looal reputation.
This was the cue for Miss Islnger's en
trance. What she doesn't know about potas
sium, fluorines, carbohydrates nnd things
like that Is not worth knowing What she
Is doing is to translate this knowledge Into
terms that you nnd I can understand.
"When I enme from Drexel last year,"
she told me as we both sat In a wide stone
doorway and hung our feef over a mill
rnco upon which wild ducks disported them
selvos, "I was asked to como Into the mill,
and I knew the work would be Interesting,
so I came.
, "There Is much educative work lo t0 anne
among women when It comes to the
knowledge of food value nnd I am building
up a comprehensive correspondence with
our patrons. I advise them how to cook
the wheat and grain products for their fam
ilies and tell them tho various nutritive
values.
"You know there are sixteen essential
elements In the human body liirth that Is
deficient In nny of these will not ralo
wheat and wheat deficient In them will not
raise man. Uy the new processes of the
manufacture of white flour some of these
substances a-e removed, because If these
ft-erms healthy nnd necessary ones are
not taken out, tho flour In time spoils.
Ijirge dcnlors cannot afford to take this
risk, llut we do take It: wo grind by the
old way because th Uttlo bacteria which
causo fermentation nro thus preserved."
Behind us tho old buhr stones with a
slow, scrunching noise milled tediously
and Interminably tho grains ot wheat. It
didn't seem possible that this could be the
year 1910 nnd thnt I had come In nn auto
mobile I thought of that other girl, the
flrat to grace tho mill, and wondered If Bhe
could huo made a prettier picture than
did Miss Islnger with tho sun playing In
her brown-gold hair and around tho brown
gold freckles on her nose.
Mistress Jerman, however. If Valley
Forgo hlstorlanS nro to bo bolleved, wns
not so much Interested In her father's mill
as In his miller. Tho latter, by numrt Ap.
derson, had been sold Into bondaC9 to
Jerman. He was big, brawny and good to
look upon. Ills owner took him out to the
Chester Valley, so runs tho tradition, and
put him to work In the mill. To the eyes
of Mistress Jerman, a beautiful headstrong
girl of sixteen, he looked better than any
free man she had ever seen.
One morning the bondman and the
daughter had both disappeared from the
mill. Old Thomas, tho Welshman, went
round like a wild man, and refused cither
to bo comforted or appeased. The fugltlcfl,
meanwhile built a little homo for them
selves in tho wilds of Schuylkill county,
where Phoenlxsvllle now Is. Ultimately
they obtained the parental forgiveness and
lived happily forever afterwards.

leaving them stranded In a rain storm.
To me, whose nerves were stl I Jn"
with the discovery of th Identity of the
woman who appeared to hold so high a
place In Dicky's regard, the problem of tn
young lovers appeared very trivial.
"She's worrying now because she can l

"How will the feel when ah begins to

I did have the good grace right here to

of Sir Jasper retunllng from a three-mile

HOUSEHOLD HELPS
i.uciti:.iA nam
r' IS with "fear and trembling" that the
majority of women t lew tho approach of
Father Tlmo after they havo passed tho
halfway milestone of life. It wns ensy for
them to say In youth that they did not
mind growing old,
when tho mirror was
obliging enough to
reflect n smooth, fresh
face, sparkling eyes
nml luxuriant hair.
Hut when tho flngo
of tlmejicgln to lonvo
lines Qiou tho skin
nnd rob tho eyes of
their brilliancy, then
they begin to think
ntiout keeping them
selves young. This It
lis It should be, but
thero nro a few fool
ish ones who will not
grow old gracefully. They daub their facos
with cosmetics until they resemble comlo
valentines nnd dress In n mannor that Is
best dcocrlbed as "kittenish." Instead of
appearing loss old they but cmphaslio the
fact that thoy nro "not as young ns they
used to bo." Learn to grow old gracefully
nnd thereby remain young,
Begin while you nro In the enrly thirties
to retain youth, not only In tha heart but
In tho Joints. If you do not begin a course
of exercising that will keep tho knees,
nnklcs, wrists and shoulders supple you
will awake some day to find that they havo
stiffened.
Nothing makes a woman age more
quickly In np'penronco than heaviness of
mocmcnt. Yet, even though she be fifty,
nho can bo ns clastlo nnd buoyant of mo
tion nn a glrj, for muscles and Joints can
bo kept In condition.
When tho knees nro Inclined to be stiff
or beforo they havo reached that stage
practlco tho "Japancso crawl." Wear
loose clothing and stand erect with hands
on hips. Advunce the right foot eighteen
Inches in front ot the left and sink on your
left knee. Illse to your original position,
bring the left foot eighteen Inches In niV
vanco of the right and sink to tho right
knee. Now bring the right foot forward
again and then the left This exercise
will rejuvenate stiffened knee Joints and
also reduce tho hips.
AN ANKLE EXEItCIBC
Here Is an exercise that will tsjte the
ankles supple. It should be pracflgey with
equal diligence. a3J'
Stand with your heels together nnd your
toes nt an angle of forty-flvo degrees, hands
on hips. Lift tho toes of the right toot and,
using the heel ns a pivot, swing them over
to touch the toes of the left foot. At the
samo time lift the heel to the left foot
using the toes as a pivot, and swing tho
heel to the right. This wilt leave the toes
together and tho heels apart Now lift
the heel ot the fight foot and, using the
toes as a pivot, swing It to tho right to
touch the heel of th left foot while at the
snmo time you lift the toes on the left
foot and, using the heel as a pivot swing
It to right This leaves the heels together
and tho toes apart
OTHER VALUABLE MOVEMENT3
Practice this exercise slowly until you
get tho movement Then Increase the speed
until you can work your way across the
room.
Walk a great deal and climb steps when
ever you have the opportunity, for this
form of exercise will keep your muscles
In condition.
You should practice the following exer
clso also It you desire to grow old grace
fully: Llo upon the floor on tho right side
with tho right hand on the right hip. Ilalke
the' body gradually from the floor by sup
porting Its weight on the left hand. Keep
on raising the body until the whole length
is frco from tho floor and Is Supported only
by tho feet and the left arm. At first you
will bo able to lift it only as far as the
waist but with practice you will do a little
better each day. Change from side to side,
exercising on the left side one minute and
tho right the next

that over gladdened the heart of a woman.
There wcro pale and Copenhagen blues, old
rose, palo pinks, lavender, violet, pea green,
canary yellow, wistaria, coral and pearl
gray, I selected a pale shade of Copen
hagen blue nH the best color for Clclly's
blond prettlness. Thon I bought somo white
china silk for tho lining, and n, pattern.
Nancy offered to help mo make tho bath
robe. After I had cut It out I told .her to
basto the sections together, while I worked
on tho sltevcs.
Ann Lee Is about Clclly's build nnd I had
her try on the bathrobe whllo I fitted It
The shoulders were a Uttlo too wide and
the nrmholes too big, but othorwlse It was
perfect. It Is almost mannish In line, hang
ing straight from the shoulders.
The plain coat sleeves I finished with
turned-back cuffa and set them In at the
annhe'es with the merest suggestion of
fullnrbs.
The collar turns away from the pointed
neck lino and has the revers attached to It
I flnlthed the edge with a single row ot
macliln stitching.
Nancy out out the white silk lining and
I Stitched the seams together and sewed It
In place.
From the scraps of material that were
left I made two square patch-pockets, lined
them with white silk and stltcherbne on
each side of tho front
Then I covered two button molds with
the corduroy nnd used them, with loops of
silk cording, to fasten the bathrobe.
After pressing out tbe wrinkles I packed
the robe and sent It to Clcily. Bhe Is sure
to like It, for It Is unusually good-looklpg
and will stand tubbing. I know, for I
washed a sample of the goods to moke
sure.
Aunt Katheryn Is giving a dinner-dance
for the girls tonight Nancy Is shouting
for me to "com and be made beautiful,"
as th hairdresser has arrived.

"Rose Beads
This Is a good way to use up accumu
lated rose petals:
In making rose beads, the black color
Is obtained by keeping ths pulp of the
leaves In an Iron vessel. Tho more highly
scented the roses that are used, the more
highly scented the roses that ore used, the
moro distinct will be the perfume ot the
beads, but a few drops ot some essential
oil of roses may be used to help out the
faintly perfumed kind of petals. It requires
a large quantity of rose netals to make a
string of beads, about a gallon for 60 small
beads. Gatlior the roses, fresh, strip off the
petals, and put them through a meat
grinder, using the fine blade three or four
times. Let It stand overnight tn a cool
Iron pan or pot right under the grinder
so that the moisture and pulp will fall Into
It Spread out In the pan, and sprinkle
over It a few drops of the oil of rose If
you want tho ndded perfume. Mix thorough
ly, and let stand all day, stirring occasion
ally. If the pulp 'Is not fine enough, run
It again through the grinder a couple of
times. Let stand over night In a cool
place. When the pulp Is dark and ready
for use, tako a thimbleful and roll It round
and round until It Is tho shape of a bead.
By using the thimble to measure tha
quantity, you will be able to get the beads
ot uniform size. Put each one as you
mako It on a hat pin stuck Into something
to keep It uprights the beads should not
touch one another or anything els until
they are Arm. Care and. patience mutt
be exercised In the handling, to get the
beads nicely shaped. If you want the beads
scored on the surface the Imported 'rote
beads are never smooth you can mark
thorn with a pin, or by rolling a file over
them before they are dry,

All's Well
The clouds which rise with thunder, slake
Our thirsty souls with rain;
The blow most dreaded falls to break
From off our limbs a chain;
The wrongs of -man lo man but make
The love'of Ood more plain.
As through the shadowy lens of even
The eye looks farthest into heaven ,
On gleams of star and depths of blue
The glaring sunshine never knew.
