CRUISE OF THE
YACHT HILDA
Why Her Disappearance Re
mains a Mystery.
"Tell us nbout the Hilda, llrownlow.
"It Isn't safe to cplu thnt ynrn. Some
of you might got xnc Into trouble."
A promlso of secrecy wns uinilp, nnd
tho ynrn wns spun.
"The Hilda had the newest thing In
engines, and ns soon ns she hnd been
tested her owner, Mr. Cblppludnle,
started In her for n trip nround the
world, with mo ns engineer.
"A great many people think the days
of plrntcs are past and gone. Don't
you believe It. Ships go out nnd uro
never heard from gone down hi a
storm; more likely their crews lire
murdered nnd the ship Is plundered
nnd scuttled. Well, we were steaming
westward somowhero between Hong
kong nnd Manila when we met n sailer
wearing Uritish colors coming through
the wntcr, turning the white before
her, heading right for us nnd signaling
us to slow down. Thinking she had
something Important to communicate,
we stopped the engines, nnd n boatload
of men came nbourd. As soou as they

Winter Millinery Styles
Continue to Be
SMALL hats for spring are to bo
seen In all the French millinery
stores of note, launched upon
their adventures in the world of
fashion; that world has evidenced a
growing appreciation of certain shapes
which proved too good to pass with
the winter. These shapes, held over
and slightly modified, made up in
spring materials, are simply enticing.
The day has come when women de
mand hats that are "good" from all
view points, that Is, becoming to tho
wearer from any anglo. If a shape Is
especially good In a full front view
and not Just right from the side or
back, either a new shape must be
made, with little alterations In out
line, or the trimmer must effect
changes by placing the trimming clov-
NOVEL DINNER PARTY IDEA
"Progression" Doet Away With Minor
Annoyance That Sometimes
Mars the Occasion.
A girl who is looking for a way out
of the common to entertain somo of
her young friends will find a "pro
gressive dinner party" a Jolly affair.
There Is nothing better for helping
along new acquaintances, and it also
works wonders In another way In not
allowing old friends to talk too exclu
sively with each other. Often tho fun
of & small entertoinmont Is spoiled,
because one or two couples spend al-1
most the whole evening in talking to .
each other, neglecting every one elso.
The yonng hostess has not always ex
perience enough to prevent this mis
take gracefully.
The progressive dinner party 1b
managed as follows: Each young man )
is ioiu io xbko a certain gin in 10 ain
ncr, as at any dinner party. Tho
places at table aro shown by tho
UBual cards with names. During the
first course they sit in these places,
but as the plates are being changed
each young man takes the place of tho
next one to tho right (or left). This
1b repeated after each course, tho
change being always in the samo di
rection. Tho girls do not move, so
young men havo an opportunity to
talk to each girl.
Sandals for Small Children.
If children wear sandals until they
are threo or four years old, they will
have a natural-shaped foot, strong,
ankle muscles and will stand and walk
properly. Wo are all taught to point
the toes out when walking. This, how
over, is an unnatural position, and
only adds a greater strain on the In
side muscles of anklo and foot, caus
ing, in many caties, weak ankles and
other foot troubles. Let tho toes
point straight in front when standing
or walking, allow the feet to have
plenty of room to grow, select broad,
flat-heeled shoes for your children,
and start them toward manhood on
womanhood with normal feet, strong
ankles, thus lessening the danger of
corns, bunlonB and all other foot trou
bles. Dainty Garters.
Tho curious fancy for mingling
black with the adornment of llngerlo
and other moro personal articles is
finally manifested in a pair of gar
ters. On the shirred black band that
forms tho solid part of tho garter aro
sprinkled silk roses in pastel shades;
the same flowers ornament tho lace
rosettes, from which dangle smaller
roses on ribbon ends. Tho laco frill-.
In is lightly embroidered with black
silk.
Popular
crly. These points arc bo well taken
care of by artists In millinery that
even the simplest-seeming hats aro
really amazingly well thought out and
adapted to their wearers.
Tho lines of the Dutch bonnet, tho
dear Wllhelmina, have been managed
In all sorts of ways. A pretty adapta
tion Is shown here, having a crown
of purple violets and brim covered
with purplo velvet. A similar hat, In
soft hemp, shows a decided point nt
tho front and a small, rather pointed
crown, which would be Insignificant
except for two ears of silk perched nt
the front. Tho shapo in navy blue
had a wide flange of velvet In the
same color and the loops, or ears,
were of taffeta silk, also In plain navy
bluo of a rather bright shade.
A hood of turcan laid over a cap
shape, covered with black silk, la also
an unusually clever development of
simple lines and handsomo materials.
Tho rolled-up brim Is covered with
two folds of black satin and a bow of
ribbon in black satin finishes a band
which apparently holds tho point of
the hood In place at the back.
The liking for quaint shlrrlngs,
quillings and ruchings came in with
the return of fabrics with which they
were used almost a half century ago.
A shirred band of changeable taffeta
finishes tho soft straw bonnet shapo
shown here. Two rosettes of tho taf
feta look like big, full-blown roses;
they are placed at each side of the
brim. A short broad plume, in tho
colorings of tho silk, finishes tho hat.
Tho hats shown in tho illustrations
are very practical models. Although
each hat, It must bo conceded, is chlo
(to the French degree) yet each is
simplicity Itself.

One-Plece Linen Drets an Absolute
Necessity During the Warm
Days of Summer.
The one-piece linen dress is found
in nearly every girl's wardrobe. It is
so necessary In the warm summer
days, and being washable may be
made up in daintiest colors. Kid fin
ished linen having a suede effect is
the season's novelty in linens, and
there Is also a basket weave, a striped
crash, etamlno crash, cotton Bedford
cord, granite crash and the basket
woavo with a wldo border of drawn
work. Tho model sketched is of pink
linen. The upper part Is covered with
a slmplo design In eyelet embroidery.
Whlto lawn collar and cuffs finish tho
neck and sleeves.
A pink straw hat with a largo wired
bow of taffeta is perhaps tho most ap
propriate to wear with such a frock.
Deceptive Color.
Yellow is a most deceptive color for
evening wear, electric light usually
turning it into pink and causing some
disappointment in tho caso of those to
whom truo yellow is a most becoming
color.

DECORATIVE VALUE
OF STREET LIGHTING.
Th Various Systems and Their Adapt,
ability to Certain Conditions.
Ono of the practical advantages of
tho electric lamp Is Its ability to oper
ate cqunlly well In both upright and
pendent positions, sayn a writer In
tho American City. Tho cluster sys
tem, which consists of suitable posts
supporting a number of lamps, has
acquired great popularity, nnd Justly
ho, tho multiple light sources giving u
distinctively decorative appearance. A
very common arrangement nnd one to
be particularly recommended In small
er cities Is tho use of four lamps sup
ported on arms, with n lamp In tho
center, the latter being arranged on n
separate circuit so that It can be used
for service after midnight or whatever
hour the other lamps may be consider
ed unnecessary. The central lamp
necessarily must bo placed in tho up
right position, nnd the globe should
lie of larger diameter than those on
the arms. Whether tho lamps on tho
arms should bo pendent or upright la
principally a matter of taste, although
there Is some slight gain In Illumina
tion on tho sidewalk by placing the
lamps pendent nnd thus avoiding tho
shadow of the aims.
The capacity or size of the lampn
will depend on the distance apart of
the standards. In all cases, however,
the conduits should have an ample
margin of .safety, so that in case larger
lamps are desired at any time they
may be safely used.
The width of the street must also be
taken Into arcount. Tho lower post is
more suitable for the narrow street,
and vice versa. The usual heights nro
from twelve to fourteen feet for clus
ter posts, the exact height being deter-

miued by the individual conditions
mentioned. The various types of arc
lumps, being of much greater caudle
power, naturally require much higher
posts, ranging from twenty "feet for
the Inclosed arc to forty feet or even
more for the flaming arc.
Exterior lighting, like interior light
ing, must be carried out with due con
sideration of tho environment nnd the
chief purpose sought. A wholly satis
factory result can be obtained only
when all tho conditions aro carefully
considered and given duo weight.
Modern lllumlnants have made possi
ble a degree of beauty and utility in
public lighting that was undreamed of
even a half century ago. Wo are only
beginning to realize what this means
in the development of the city of the
twentieth century. Tho means of pro
ducing light In unlimited quantities Is
ono of tho few benefits bestowed upon
modern civilization by science that can
not be perverted to evil purposes. It Is
one of tho few good things of which
there Is no danger of getting too much.
Waterworks Earned $70,547.68.
Tho municipally owned waterworks
earned for tho city of Knoxvllle, Tenn.,
the sum of ?70,5i7.0S for the year 1011.
This is nn increase of $10,CS9.-17 over
the net earnings of tho year 1910. Tho
annual report of the Kuoxvillo water
works commission, that Is now being
completed, will go into details and will
show an lncreaso In mileage of pipes.
In gallons of water pumped, In number
of Are hydrants Installed and In gen
eral Improvements of tho plant. The
following aggregate figures, however,
nro tnken from tho records of the com
mission: Net earnings for 1011, $70,
f47.C8; net earnings for 1010,
853.21; lncreaso of 1911 over earnings
of 1910, $10,089.47; miles of plpo in
1911, 117.C12; miles of plpo lu 1010,
111,812; lncreaso over 1910, 0.S00; miles
of now pipe laid in 1911, 5.60.
Debt Reduced.
During the past year tho debt on the
city water and light plant In Gas City,
Ind., has been reduced to the amount
of 2,500; that is, this amount has
been paid on tho debt. It has been a
fow days moro than ope year since the
water and light plant In Gas City was
destroyed by flro. In the tlmo elapsed
slnco then tho plant has been rebuilt
and has been placed in successful
operation, and $2,G00 of tho debt paid.
That all this has been done is con
sidered nn excellent achievement.
Mayors Favor Biennial Elections.
Changes In tho charters of Ave of the
sir cities of Rhode Island, which will
result In biennial municipal elections,
are likely to bo mado by tho geueral
assembly. Tho mayors of Providence,
Woonsockct and Pawtucket are out
spoken In favor of municipal elections
every two years instead of one, while
the project Is also viewed favorably by
many leaders in Cranston and Central
