Also Hill may not have always hurried away till he saw a trim figure in a tailored suit leaving the automobile place. At any rate they became acquainted. Ethel lived with her futher and mother in a modest little Hut, her father earning only a moderate salary, and Hill was asked to call, and did so, repeating at SLIP E IS USEFUL Found Handy for Covering Old Frock or.

There is a very .definite Inclination also on the part of suit designers to show garments that simulate a slightly raised waistline. The garment shown in the sketch features a fur trimming and the type of waistline referred to as well. The fabric employed for this suit is maroon colored broadcloth, with trimming of squirrel fur and touches of embroidery. The sleeves are. a trifle full, caught in with narrow bands of fur. The coat is held in place by the surplice revers, which cross and button underneath the arm on either side. The back of the coat has a gathered on skirt section, matching the front with upper part cut in bolero effect. This is one of the moderately dressy models shown. This fur collar may regular intervals. Ethel found herself looking forward to these visits with great eagerness, but she could not tell whether they meant 'so much to him. One evening he raid : I was in that restaurant today where we first met, and a fellow chaffed me, and asked if I were still rushing to the aid of maidens in distress, also if I had ever got my money back. I could have given him a swift kick especially when he said he knew you, but didn't happen to notice you till you were going out His name is Arthur Burt. Yes, I know him. And he did see me. He pretended not to, because money Is more to him than his immortal soul. Ever so many told me that but I liked him pretty well, and and I didnt want to believe it That little episode proved it I was not at home the next time he called, and I have not been at home since. So he dared to ask if I had paid you? Yes, answered Hill with something like a sigh of relief, for Ethels words hnd cleared up some other Insinuations Burt had made and which hud prompted his desire to kick him.

The entire costume is innocent of the bits of pieces so beloved of the occidental dressmaker, all the, .beauty being in the dignity of line and severe perfection of edge that gives a sense of distinction to the cheapest cotton. e Gold Only Universal Money. Students of finance remind us that gold is the only form of international money that is universally accepted ; In fact, that gold, in the last analysis, is the only commodity that passes freely as real money. All other forms of money derive their acceptability as a medium of exchange from the fact that they are believedJo be excliang-abl- e into gold at some rdte, through some process or other. The solid establishment of confidence makes possible the use of money symbols which in their own face value are worth little or nothing. Thus, Imbued with this confidence, many of us pass through our whole lives, receiving and giving the more convenient money symbol, never using the actual gold. 9 at Patrick Hughes, shift boss, and George Brenner, miner, were killed in then handed it back to him.
