"Arrest whom?" replied Detective

"The hold-up who stuck mo up.- He
ought to be easy to find. He's a poet."

This from Richard Dillon, who Is

A hold-up in rhyme."

Catarrh is a Real Enemy

Do Not Neglect It.
When you use sprays, atomizers
and douches for your Catarrh, you
may succeed in unstopping the

dition returns; and you have to do
tiie same thing over and over
again.

'' cured by these local applications.

The disappointment was too much

captain, much vexed and a little envi

crew to go after him and bring him
back before he reached land. An ex

on the progress of the race.

In the hush of the twilight they lin

hope, but fearful to try his luck, while
she —well, her fair face was lined and
drawn with determination.
Presently, after a silence long and
deep, she began:
"I will never—"
Her eyes met his pleading orbs with
an intensity of purpose which made
his heart quail,
"Wed any man!"
His bronzed face paled and he felt
as If he stood on thebrlnk of a chasm
of despair. Then, with a politely cold
smile on her curved lips, she con
tinued :
"Present company—"
Again she paused and he waited in
feverish anxiety for aer next words."
"Always accepted!" • •

Gossip About Blouses

IT HAPPENS that the blouse or
smock of georgette crepe Is an Bli
the-year-round garment, so that one
may buy It at any time and anywhere,
and use It until It is worn out This
Is fortunate, for just now manufactur
ers have placed numbers of new
blouses with retailers at prices that
are lower than they have been for
some time. From the present* out
look they will not be lower, and tfie
fall demand may see them move up
again, so now would seem to be a
good time to buy either the ready
made blouses or the georgette for mak
ing tbem.
Nearly all midsummer styles reveal
the sleeve of elbow length, many frills,
and several stylea In collars that are
higher at the back and have square or
"V shaped front openings. There
are always some round necks. Nar
row lace, used to edge the frills, and
vests of net, tucked or trimmed, help
dignify the new models, and tucks
plsy their usual Important rolf In
tbem.' Besides these there are some
loreiy slip-over kimono blouses, with
yarn flowers that stand out on them In
prettily colored clusters. These are
don* with a chain stitch, that Is com
bined with embroidery stitches In
floral motifs that look like small
boUtueta flattened agalnat the Mouse.
Blouses of this kind usually have short
peplums, and one of tbem appears at
the right of the two Illustrated here.
This one adds a little bead fringe to
Its other allurements, and a sash of
georgette, and It may be counted on
as good style for fpll.
The other blouse pictured show* two
selves. By eliminating the cost of
labor, the price Is cut in half at least,
and sometimes even a greater saving
Is accomplished. A delicious shade of
light pink, in georgette crepe, with a
yoke of satin to match in the bodice *
and a band of satin about the skirt
makes the one-piece and one-color'
frock at the left of the group. With
It a satin scarf faced and lined with
georgette is worn, a georgette girdle,
and a pretty hat with slashed brim
made of a Soft straw. A small clus
ter of flowers at the left side gives
chance for a bit of contrast In colprs.
Every one from Paris to Ban Fran
cisco ■ has a Mouse made like that
shown on the figure at the right, and
a satin skirt to wear with many sorts
of blouses. This one is a brocaded
silk crepe, with kimono sleeve, and
round neck. A bias fold makes the
collar. Ton can Imagine this blouse
