Ticket Agt THOSE FAIRY STORIES. A Boy VJ ho Was the Victim of One of Them and Got Into Tronble Thereby. It is a peculiar belief among the youngsters of many families that tho new baby sister or brother is the gracious gift of the family physician, and this belief is generally based upon tho solemn assurance of papa and mamma, who have to tell some fairy story in order to tide over those events that occur occasionally in the best regulated families. Now and then a boy takes the law into his own hands nnd makes a mess of it, An instance of tlhis kind was related at the last meeting of a medical society. It seems that the young son of a well-known merchant and the young son of a well-known doctor were very chummy, and the former accompanied the latter one afternoon on an advertising expedition.

The advertising was done by means of a paint brush being quickly traced over any smooth piece of wood or stone encountered, and called upon the male population to purchase their trousers from Brown. Well, in the evening the doctors hopeful returned, and his paternal derivative asked him what he had been doing during the day. "Advertising, quoth the boy. Advertising whom? inquired the father. You and Mr.

Brown (the merchant). Me? Yes. now did you advertise me? Oh, we fixed up a sign that said buy your trousers from Brown and your babies from Dr. Jones, said the boy calmly. The doctor gasped for breath, think ing that the boy was having undue full with him, but he soon found out that his hope and joy was telling the truth, and it cost him money the next day to go over the boys route and rub out all the advertisements.

Bow the Trick Was Done Several Centuries Ago. Most American girls and many of their brothers have had to set the table when they would have better enjoyed doing something else, but the task offered no serious difficulties. If they had had to follow the French fashion of several centuries ago they might well have felt some dismay. Probably no little French girls of the period from the 12th to the 17th centuries could have arranged a fashionable table-cloth without considerable assistance. In the 12th century the table-cloths were very large, nnd were always laid on the table double; for a long time they were called doubliers for that reason.

The cloth was first placed so as to touch the floor on the side of the table at which the guests sat; then all the cloth that remained was folded so that it just covered the table. Charles V. had 67 table-cloths, which were from 13 to 20 yards long and two yards wide. He had one cloth which was 32 yards long, and had the arms of France embroidered on it in silk. All of these were fringed.

In the lGth century doubliers, or double cloths, were replaced by two Tal'le-elohs, one of which was small and was laid just as we lay ours today. The other, which was put on over it, was large and of beautifully-figured linen. It was skillfully folded in such a way that, as a book of that time says: It resembled a winding river, gently ruffled by a little breeze, for among very many little folds were here and there great bubbles. It must have required much art and care to make dishes, plates, salt-cellars, sauce-dishes and glasses, stand steadily in the midst of this undulating sea, and among those bubbles and puffy folds. However, the fashion had only a short existence, as is apt to be the case with unpractical fashions, and toward the latter part of the century a single cloth laid flat, and touching the floor on all sides of the table, came into general use.

Youth's Companion. New Walking Hats. The tailor-made girl still clings to the walking hat. This year the big, dashing hat, carrying a flower garden as its trimming, has tempted her a trifle, and so has the jaunty little braided straw toque; and yet through it all to the walking shape she has remained true. The latest walking hat to win favor among the tailor-made sisterhood has a bell-shaped crown and the sides rolled up closer to the crown than usual.

One of the French models is of fine tan-colored straw trimmed with merely a black satin band and a waving black paradise plume. The feather covers the entire left side of the hat and toward the back and falls well over the Lair. Then there are black walking hats in the same shape trimmed with a green taffeta ribbon' band and a green paradise plume. Quills are still used as decoration for the walking hat and also satin rosettes. N.

Y. Journal. Summers Demi-Toileta. Where the tailor leaves off the dressmaker begins to change styles to suit her own conception of the beautiful, and calling dresses, dinner gowns, dancing petticoats and at-home toilets measure at least eight yards iu circumference at the fool and are laid in tiny plaits and gathers all about the waist' band. Stout women may groan over these overlapping front plaits that extend fat hips and give short, thick waists a Dutch fullness, but slender souls rejoice, and, moreover, there is much liking shown for the new way of carrying braided avtid brocaded points between the full hanging flutes, from the foot nearly up to the waist line.

At least one is thankful, for perfectly plain Fkirts are growing to be something of a bore.
