Add 6 tablespoons peanut butter, and when The Diamond Brooch Becomes an Effective Hat Ornament It Is No Longer Essential to a Dress Already Ornamented by Brilliants PARIS It seems a rather extravagant fashion to wear diamond hat ornaments. Yet, after all, a woman posessing a handsome diamond brooch takes little chance in losing It when it is securely pinned to her felt hat. Certainly It displays the brooch to tremendous advantage, and many women, especially when wearing fur coats, feel that it is a better use for their pins flian worn on the shoulder or at the neck. The growing use of handsome and often spectacular buckles and ornaments is another reason for finding a new way to wear the brooch.

Among the newer designs In rliine-stone and crystal pins, intended to be worn, at the hip or wherever it seems most effective, may be cited a narrow bar holding three ttones of graduating size. While at one time a really smart woman would have scorned to wear a rhinestone or crystal necklace, now they are generally in favor; so much so, in fact, that one feels incompletely dressed when in dccollette unless resplendent with brilliant trappings. While crystals and diamonds, or what passes for them, head the list of fashionable gems, there are many colored ones being worn, and for the moment pearls are relatively unimportant. Rather heavy-looking gold Jewelry is still liked, Premet and Lelong especially being successful with these types.

10. P) Although she has smoked a pipe for nearly a century, Mrs. Mary Lineback, 105 years old, is of the opinion that girls should have nothing to do with tobacco. "Just because smoke," she says, "is no reason for others doing It. I am old enough to know better, but I can't get away from the habit.

I had filled grandma's pipe and after thinking the matter over, decided that a girl 15 years old was old enough to take a few puffs. That was 90 years ago. and I've been puffing ever since."

Frances sighed. know should like him better than chickens Presently Paul made his appearance. He came over at once to their table. "You are all right?" he asked Miss Brown, a little anxiously.

"Quite," she assured him. "Why shouldn't she be?" Frances exclaimed. "And why don't you ask after my health while you're about it?" "I came to ask if you would dance with mc," he said, turning toward her almost shyly. "I know it's very soon you're only starting dinner, are you? but have so many clients coming later tonight with whom I have to dance professionally." Frances accepted willingly. The music was at its best and they danced for some time before they returned to the tabic.

"That was delightful, Mr. Paul." Frances acknowledged, with a sigh of pleasure. down with us for a moment now, wont you?" "I should like to very much." he answered, "if you are sure that you will not let me interfere with your dinner. It is too bad of mc to keep Miss Austin so long," he apologized with a courteous bow to Miss Brown, "but I have so much dancing that is troublesome, and with the little practice she has Miss Austin is really wonderful?" "How is the restaurant going?" Miss Brown inquired. "Moderately welL We are Just paying our way I think.

Anyhow, the family all live tree, and we have man-eged to keep out of debt, which is something. It is difficult, though. We try to keep the clientele among ourselves, but there are not enough Russians in London with money of their own. Every now and then we get some of the others. Those we will not serve.

You observed, perhaps, tonight that when 1 first came up to you I was much upset?" Miss Brown assented. "I have been telling Miss Austin about it. Who should present himself, sit down at a and prepare to dine but Bretskopf Bretskopr, Miss Brown, the man who condemned relatives of mine to death for no other reason in the world except that they had property; that they were not of the people. Why, when he is in Russia, he lives at this moment In a house belonging to my uncle. Into which he merely walked ana of ahich he took possession." A message was brought across to Paul, and he rose to feet with a regretful sigh.

A few minutes later he was dancing with a fluffy-looking dowager of very uncertain age, his head bent while he listened to her babble of conversation. Frances sighed. "I am sorry for Mr. Paul." Vhe reflected, her eyes following him around the room. Later on in the evening at a time when their coming at all had seemed improbable.

Frankland and Erie Greatson presented themselves. Both seemed a little tired, Frankland, for him, almost morose. They came across the room and shook hands with the two girls. "Hard work to get here tonight," Mr. Frankland observed.

"It looked as though there were going to be a division up till 10 o'clock. I see you young ladies have nearly finished dinner." "Very nearly," Frances replied. "You had better come and talk to us later. Miss Brown and I want a little Information about your party." "I'll i give you all the information you want." Frankland promised, with a touch of his usual pomposity. "I'm the right person to come to for that.

We shan't be long feeding had lunch late. Wish you'd let us send you young ladies a bottle of wine?" "Certainly not." Miss Brown declined hastily. "You had better go and start your dinner. Your waiter is looking agitated." The two men departed, Frankland with the somewhat unsteady gait of the man who has drunk a great many aperitifs. Their table was already flanked by a bottle of champagne In an ice pail, to which Frankland pointed impatiently even before they had sat down.

His hair was untidier even than usual, his cheeks were more flushed. His shirt had crept from one side of his waistcoat and his voice traveled raucously across the room. Frances looked at him critically and her eyes wandered off to where Paul was still in melancholy attendance upon his dowager. Miss Brown watched, but in her great wisdom she made no remark.

Finally, through a newspaper ad In code, ahe Is summoned to a secret chamber In on of the government buildings where a certain John Olyde, cousin and executor of Dessiter. produces her notes, which she had Instructed the bank to deliver to no one by herelf. and bids her transcribe them.

To tell you the truth, my vanity is a little piqued. Mr. Frankland has raised the siege. He hasn't been down this week or written." "So much the bet.tcr,H Miss Brown declared severely. "I call hint' a most objectionablepcrson." "So do as a matter of fact," Frances yawned.

"He thinks of nothing else except his wretched speeches and his Influence with the working classes. I don't like men who are too much In earnest about anything In We except me. If only some nice man knew," she reflected, "how unsettled am. how receptive, how easy a victim I should be to any one with a little affection to give and a little tact to use In the displaying of It, why thlnlc should be besieged.

Could he do my hair as well?" "He'd make an awful mess of It," Frances assured her.

"These hairdressers have no knack of handling fine, simple hair like yours. I shouldn't let him touch it If were you. The way yon arrange It yourself, with those baby blue eyes underneath and jour funny demure little mouth, gives you Individuality at any rate. You mayn't be striking looking. Miss Brown, but if any one takes the trouble to look at you well, you're quite worth It.

Can have a bath?" "You can If you have sixpence to put in the slot." Frances swung herself oft the bed. tJ. 1 Art See!

"How the mischief did you know? You've seen the stop press of the Evening Standard, I suppose." Miss Brown shook her head. "I heard somethinlg about It before Irft my work." she admitted. "And I'm not sure that it was the police who were so clever after alL Many arrets?" "Not one jrcL The warehouse was deserted and tho man who threw the bombs was blown into small pieces. It seems a senseless sort of affair." Miss Brown shivered a little.

Oo and have your bath," she sug-ges'ed. "I may have one afterward your hairdresser's here." "Oo and have yours first. The man will be furious If I keep him waiting, and you know how I like to stew." Miss Brown dutifully departed. When she reappeared clad in her dressing-gown, the hairdresser had already arrived. With the necessity of a suspended toilet before her she curled herself up in an easy-chair.

He had a great deal to say aoout the morning's excitement. "Felt the ground rock beneath my feet" he told them both. "I wa shaving a customer thine I don't often do, but it was Lord Rltchley, a very old client. very nearly cut him, too a tMng that hasn't happened to me for fifteen years. You've heard the latest.

I suppose?" "We've heard nothing except what's in the papers," Frances confessed. Maurice assumed an air of mystery. "Even if they bring off this uni versal strike, it won't do what they think it will. I went to a meeting the other night," he went cn confidentially. "There was a young man, Mr.

Eric Greatson, who spoke. Never heard such nonsense in my life. It was all kinds of poetry stuff and imagining things ont a word that was a bit of goad to a workingman." The two girls exchanged quiet glances. "Mr. Eric Greatson is supposed to be a very clever man," Miss Brown observed.

"He may be clever In his own way," the man acknowledged, "which may be in writing verses for those to enjoy who understand them, or it may ba in writing novels which he's quite rlghftJ call romances, because there Isn't a word of truth in them, but as for any sort of help to the ord.nary workingman, there wasn't anything of that sort tumbling out of Mr. Creation's mouth." He stood back and surveyed his handiwork. Frances made a little grimace at herself in the glass. It was an Intelligent, almost a beautiful face, notwithstanding the slightly discontented curve of the mouth. "You've made me look a shade less ugly." she admitted.

"I've made you look In the fashion, madam." was the self-satisfied reply. "And that's what you send for me for. I wish your friend would spare me. ten minutes. I'd cut her hair so that her best friends wouldn't know hrr." Miss Brown shook her head.

"You couldn't make me look fashionable." "Not worth while trying, either," Frances declared. "We girls all look like a flock of sheep nowadays." The hair dresser, who was secretly of the same opinion, packed up and took his leave. The two girls completed their toilettes In leisurely fashion, and in due course started off on their expedition. "What a funny world it would be," Ml 1 Brown remarked abruptly, as they entered their taxi In Curzon street, "if the whole of the social conditions were changed. Why, all these big houses would have to come down, or be made Into apartment houses, and the shops there would be no one left to buy the very expensive things.

Every one would want medium-sized houses, medium-priced jewelry, medium everything. The luxuries would all go begging." "I think if Mr. FTankland Is there we'll get him to talk about it tonight," Frances suggested. "I'd rather hear him talk than dance with him especially If he's been drinking a treat deal." "I wish you wouldn't dance with him at all," Miss Brown begged ear nestly. "I don't like him.

and though I know that you're not really in ear nest. I hate to see him with you. Why don't you dance with Mr. Paul? He thinks there's no one in the world like you, and his manners are charming." The long Russian." Frances mur mured. "Well, he's very attractive, but what's the good of him? I'm passing through an era of common sen? e.

don't want to waste my time or my inougnts or my affections ud on any one who's absolutely hope' less." "But Is Mr. Paul absolutely hope less?" "Well. Isn't he? A nrofesslonal dancer by night, a whole family to support by working in a restaurant by day. Of course, it's fine of him, to do it. I admire him for it awfullybut I'm selfish, selfish, selfish." They arrived presently at the Cosmopolitan, selected a suitable table and ordered the dinner.

Then they glanced around the room. Miss Brown, at any rate, was relieved to see no sign of Mr. Frankland. "You seem terribly opulent," Frances observed, "but am not goii.g to allow you to pay tonight. The Princess has bought a dozen chickens from me rather decent of her, think, as you didn't seem to get on with her friends and I've brought the money up with me." "YouH have to keep It, then," Miss Brown inslted.

"This is a celebration party. have accepted a permanent post. I'm secretary cow to a Mr. John Glyde. and at a big salary, too.

He gave me a ridiculous sum of money not long ago for doing some work, and he won't let mo return any of it." "Well drink to him, whoever he may be," Frances declared, after the cocktails were brought. "You're a quiet little cat, Edith. "You don't seem to feel the need of confidences like other girls. Then, all of a sudden, you come out with an astounding fact like this. Wbo Is Mr.

John Glyde. what sort ot work does he do and how old Is he?" "He Is rather a fierce person," Miss Brown confided. "He is head of a new department at the Heme Office.

Because of complaints of the local telephone and light companies Franklin Kreisher, 20, Is tha storm center of a controversy.
