for the festivities, and not expecting

"What, what Is It?" Pan's voice was
brusque. He had no US3 for any of Que

But pete was crlngingly polite. "I

Outside tho cabin. Pete opened the
bit of paper. The words meant nothing
to him, unable to read.
"My darling Pierre hns left to
wreck my boats. I must overtake him.
Save my answor for me. All my love.
DAN."
Bit by bit, Pete tore the note to
&leces and threw them to rot Unnoticed
i the muskeg swamp which bordered
the trail.
That night Janet dnnccd her liveliest,
mostly In the arms of Simmons, who
whlsnered of the cities thev would visit

"Marry me tonight, sweetheart ! Make

And who knows? Henrtsor Janet,
wondering why Dan had failed her,
might havo yielded had not Pete. In
significant Instrument of fate that ho
was, slunk into the room with the lie
on his lips he had been ordered to

exultantly nnd drew the girl tighter.
"My girl, vour proclous Dan Is mined.

Slowlv the girl freed herself. Hor
race was white and her words wore lilt
ing. "Now. I know you for what you
are. Qua Simmons. Do you think I
would ever marry a man who rJolces
Ir Another's downfall? No; n hundred
times no !"
Straight to Father Dona), smoking
his pipe in the factor's sitting room,
she went "Conic with mc," B.ie plead

' And four days later Dan held Janet
Jn his arms vyhlle ho told her that his

So they were married on the banks
of the Athabasca to the music of its

pines on Its banks.
As for Pierre, he scotched the story

Some New handkerchiefs

Do you want a Imndkcrchlef to liarmonlzo with tlia't new dress of jours?
Here Is a charming nrlcty of designs, Irregularly colored borders and
some In stripes and blocks. There Is also a cunning white handkerchief
with a rolled hem, whipped with pink thread, and a small bluo nnd
pink carland of flowers In one of Its comers
rnllUHE is no longer any qutBtlon ns
-1- to the taste of the colored hand
kerchief. There vvns a time, we can
most of us remember, wncn tne very
particular woman would have licr
handkerchief of nothing save the finest
white linen. She scorned colored bor
ders nnd designs. Now the woman of
taste rather likes the colored haudkpr
chiefs that the shops offer, nnd many
women who take a keen Interest In their
appearance mnke a point nlwnjH to have
a handkerchief to go with the frook
they arc wearing. If they have on a
brown frock, they carry n handkerchief
with n brown border. With a yellow
sweater and white skirt they carry a
linndkercl-icf with a yellow acstgn.
Now these attractive handkerchiefs

anything but linen fcr them, However,

Adventures With a. Purse
NOT .so long ago, I told you about
the tiny rubber pnntles'l'or babies.
In fact, to make nuro that those who are
interested would hear about them I even
wrote aboul them moro than once. And
I bad the satisfaction of knowing that
a great many were Interested, judging
from the great number of calls I re
ceived. Hut those panties were of a
shiny rubber ensily reeogniMd ns rub
ber. This might not be looked upon
favorably by home mothers, particularly
when they want to dress baby In best
clothes for a vlslti I now, however,
have run across some rubber panties in
white, but of n dull finish that resem
ble a white fabric Tlit-so are just ns
cfBcacU.ua, but their purpose Is slightly
less obvious. The price 1h 70c a pair.
And then, while we are on the subject
of babies, do let me tell you about the
Irish lnce bootees, for the tiny boy or
girl who has not yet grown to the dig
nity of shoes. One look at them and
you picture n chubby bnby leg. white
stockinged, with wee fat little foot
curled up, nnd tiny toes wriggling con
tentedlv. The bootees have plain
soles, but all tho rest; (ln fnct, alf
that ran be seen when on tho foot, arc
of Irish lace, with a medallion smugly
set on the top of each. 'They aro lined
with pink or blue and Are altogether
running and attractive. Their price to
7Gc a pair.
Then at this same shop nrc the medal
lions. Perhaps you make your own
underwear. If so, jou can npprcclftte
the ndded daintiness that n row of Irish
lnce medallions across the front and
back would mean. In fact, you know
much better thnn I how many ways in
which mcdnllions enn be used. These
are of good quality, n very pretty pat
tern and cost 05c a dozen, which I con
sider remarkably reasonable.
