Two Stunning Paris Creations
TOP PICTURE. Of Prunella Russian straw Is this small bat, the smartness of which lies principally In the lines of the shape. The clever home md liner may copy this truly Parisian hat and wear it with the assurance that she is strictly up to date. The front revers are of the Russian straw, with a self-binding to form the flaring shape. The back rever, which tops the other two over so lightly. Is of course net bound and wired to an fnoh band of lac straw braid. Two
black fantasies tn the imitation paradise trim the back. The one on the left Is set at the Junction of the two revers and extends up to give height. The other crosses the lace rever and extends softly to the right.
BOTTOM PICTURE. At last we have something distinctive and different In millinery, but the very name of this charming new hat proves that "history repeats itself" with variations. This chic little chapeau is called the "Watteau," and it accomplishes smartness In a most quaint and becoming way it is enchanting and not at all eccentric. Made of "Pansy" tagal, contrary to the custom of the last few years, a bandeau or barette lifts it off the hair. Over the "tam" crown a pansy velvet ribbon crosses, surmounting brim and bandeau and finally tying in a great bow at the nape of the neck. On either side of the front is set a bunch of wheat, roses and violets these trim the hat and at the same time secure for it balance and proportion.

"Perhaps it is the next street," suggested Helen. "No, he said the second turning from the station, and then five minutes' walk to the top. These Englishmen's directions are so blamed indefinite." "Let's go on a little further maybe it is up beyond that crossing." "It was a typical English suburban street with vine-covered cottages, flower gardens and stone fences. "Rose Villa, Cedar Lodge, Ivy Manor," read Helen from the gate posts. "I love the way they name their houses here. It is so much more picturesque than having them numbered." "Well, it is a darn sight more confusing. You know 110 comes after 108 but I will be switched if you- know what comes after Rose Villa or Cedar Lodge. Wouldn't want the postman's Job." "Oh, there could that be it? He said grey brick, didn't he?" "Oh, that's too pretentious. Boothby's only a clerk on about live pounds a week." "Well, I thought you said he was a middle aged man w itli a family." "So he is. But there are lots of middle-aged clerks in England living on five pounds a week and they are content with it, too.

This was a trait in the English char
acter that appealed strongly to Warren. He often said "Over here ser
vants are servants and they don't expect to be anything else that is why
they are good servants."
But Helen could never see why lack of ambition should be commended, and she said so now. NOT AMBITION. "Ambition? It's not ambition it's restlessuess, dissatisfaction. Who was it said 'America is full of careless young people who want to be great'? Well he had it just about right. There isn't that a church?"

As they were, sailing Saturday, Warren had insisted on their aceptiug this invitation to tea. Mr. Bothby was only a clerk in the office where Warren had made his headquarters, but in many ways be had ben most helpful and Warren planned to leave some unfinished business in his care. As they went up the flower garden path Helen saw that the table on the lawn was set for tea. Mr. Boothby introduced them to his wife and two daughters. The girls were dressed for
; the occasion in their best white gowns, I were awkward and self-conscious. i It was plain that to them this was
quite an event. Most of the middleaged English are convinced that every American is a millionaire, and the Booth by's had probably looked forward to this tea with much concern and trepidation. They were soou seated on the wicker chairs by the little table under the trees. There was no maid and the two girls passed the tea and toasted muffins with shy embarrassment.
