SPEAKING of hots but I wr
speaking of lints, was I? Well, i
vasn't
sneaking of lints, was I? A veil, then.
I will. Speaking ol huts, I saw airs.
Thomas Dolan In a' stunning vino the
other day. It Iind the popular "off-thc-fnee"
cficct, only it didn't seem to be
actually turned back, us so mmiy bills
are, and it was mndc ot dark bluo taf
feta, with a soft, floppy crown.
Then just at one side of the front, on
(he brim, there .was a Feather one of
those soft, spready paradise affairs
of a tort of warm tan. I suppose Hint
rolor has n name, but not being very
much up ,on the names of eolois I
have to describe it in my words to
jet jou know what I menu. So 1 call
' this a warm tun, iind hope jou'll set
what I mean. Then, Mrs. Dolan had
on a long fur coat, and I just caught a
glimpse of n dark blue wool dret.s that
looked very striking.
AND tonight's the Supper Club again.
The time is getting pretty bhort for
that; do jou know it' There ire only
about one or two more meetings. I'll
be sorry when It's over for the season,
won't jou? It'b sucli fun to go some
where to dance ufter the theatre aud
. be sure that jou will sec bo many peo
ple jou know. Aud then the music is
to marvelous.
I hear that the Kdward Brooks, Jrs.,
of Hula, are going to entertain tonight,
in honor of Mrs. Brooks's daughters,
Lucille and Lmilie de Kosenko. Then the
(Jlendinuinsi are also going to enter
tain, and there nto a number ot othcis
who will 1)0 there, even if they don't
entertain. Ho jou cau be sure ot bcciug
lota ol people there if jou go.
HAVE you heard about the rummage
sale that the Pcnnsjlvaniu Rnil
road women's war lclief depuitment,
(said she, taking n long breath) Is going
to hold next week? It will be nt 111!
Market street on Thursday and Triday.
And the beneficiary is very interest
ing. I think. The proceeds arc to be
used to complete a fund to endow a
memorial scholarship in the University
of Pennsylvania (of course) for any
boy or girl whose parenU have been,
or whose parent is, or has been, em
ployed in the freight department of the
railroad. Don't you agree with me that
it's interesting?

AYhat are they going to sell? AVell.
now, what would they sell? They tell
rae that they have new things, like
housfdresses, lamps, groceries (that
founds good), enndy, hand-knit sweat

a large assortment of men's, women's
and children's clothing that is slightly

TEDDY has reached the rather ad
vanced stage of thinking where it's
very funny to say "naughty words."
Although his dialect is still it bit hnrd
to understand, Mother can get enough
of the sense of his remurks to rcnlizc
that he occasionally addresses the iron
man who runs his tire engine in the
most profane terms. Naturally she
scolds him. and the look in her eje
tells him that it would never do to
continue the use of the lovely word.
One evening, though, during his bath,
he was plajing with the cake of soap,
and was nnnojed because it kept slid
ing out ot bis slipperj fingers. There
v,'a? but one thing to do. lie had just
heard an older brother use a word that
sounded fine. "Mother, can I say
'barns ," ho asked Mother thought
he could, seeing no reason why he
couldn't. He assumed a relieved ex
pression and picked up the soap again.
It slipped out of his bunds. "Oh," lie
exclaimed emphatically, "Burns this
soap ! I can't keen the barns thing in
m huud!" NANCY AVYNNE.

Wasner Overture "Jlasterslnsers"
The Pbilndelphia Orchestra yesterday
gave one of its concertb without a so
loist, and it proved to be one of the best
ot the season thus far both on account
of the novelties given and for the great
beauty of the familiar numbers ou the
program, the ever fresh Eighth Svm
phony of Beethoven, the Siegfried
"Id.vll" nnd the "MastersingTs" over
tuie of AVngner.
The progtam opened with the novel
ties, the include to the third act to
"Vnlouia," by A'ictor Herbert, and
Henry F. Gilbert's symphonic prologue
to Sjnge's drama, "Riders to tbe Sea."
Air. Herbert's music has been beard
hero iu its operatic environment, und it
btunds the transition to the concert
stage better than most mu-.ic of its
kind. It displays nil Mr. Herbert's
fncility with the orchestra and the
melody in it is generally ot a different
kind from that usually associated with
the name of this composer. The num
ber by Mr. Gilbert is the prologue to a
tragic drama, and like the play it fol
lows closely the trngic line. It is inther
inclined to the modern, but though
scoied for a ery large orchestra, the
instruments lire not at all times used
to the best ndvantage, for the feeling
of the orchestration more tbuu once is
that of thinness. Both numbers were
exceedingly well plajed by the orches
tra aud were moderately well received.
The gem of the program however,
was the Beethoven Eighth Sjmphony.
Air. Stokowski ngaiu plnve.l the sjiu
phony iu one movement, u- he did the
Alozart sjmphonies, with a distinct gain
thereby, ns all three of, the vmpbonies
so treated nro biifficiently short to be
lienrd in a bingle movement without
tiring the bearer Tho cxqui-ite beauty
of the Eighth Symphony and its charac
teristic emotional mood make it stand
in a class by itself among symphonies
Its jovous freshness wns well brought
out in the interpretation nnd in the
playing, nnd tho uudience testified to
its pleasure In the work b.v recalling
Air. Stokovvski a number of times.
The nioro thun inteusn silenco with
which tho same audience sat through the
Siegfried Id 11 was fur more eloquent
of its feelings tbnu tin1 uppluuso which
greeted tho woik at the close. AVng
ner or any one else for that mutter, has
composed few things to equal this work
in its bhecr musical beauty both as to
nrchebtrul color and us to melodic and
harmonic beauty ns well Tbe familiar
overturo to "The Mastersiugerb" closed
the effective program.

"You bet your life you wouldn't." j
"Should bny I wouldn't!"
She could see him advancing through
the gloom, his white architectural
teeth shining out.
"Why, I wouldn't hurt one ot tbe
hairs on your head, girl, not for two

waist cords. "Can't a fellow, just to
prove to you how much he thinks of

him with a flashing movement, but at

the edge of her blccvc.

"No, you don't!" And with u jerk
and u tear wns free ot him, darting
the room's width to the mirror and low
toward the door.
Taken so suddenly that his fingers
relaxed like wax, Air. Foddio htood
for a blinded instnnt, then cast the
length of his body across the table
top, reaching for the tljing hem of
her sleeve as it slipped him.
"Annie come back girl." Reached
farther, dragging the tabic cover, und
with it the lamp until it tipped in a
burst of flame. .
A geyser of fire shot up immediately,
blackening the white ceHing, its retJec

the tip-tilted mirror like a long, swift
tongue. For a moment bhe paused,
gripped in fear, then hurled buck uud
at it.
"Stand back off that crib! Stand
back! Stand back! The crib!" And
with her body's weight flung against

room's width, the tent swinging und
the child whimpering.

AVlicn Annie Kineady returned with
the pitcher, her own (hands trembling

Mr. Foddie was sitting upright in his
chair, quite as bho bad shoved him,
but with a pallor that caused her to cry
out:
"Bcaslev! Mr. Foddie! Beasley!
Foddie! Oh. my God! Beasley!"
AA'hen Mrs. Beablcy, her jellovv mus
lin nightgown clutched at her thin
throat, rushed into tho scorched air
of that room, n dim line of tullovv -faced
lodgers came peering after.
"Beasley, for God's sake, Beaslej t

leaned forward, her car to the hinged
flannel robe.

On one such day. when the sun Iriy
