AN APRON SHOWER.
When casting about for material
for a shower to bless the engaged girl
with, decide upon aprons and see what
a prolific shower they will make. If
the girl is likely to do a lot of her
own work—and that's what most of it
our friends are happily planning for
—we may as well begin at the bottom
and tell about the aprons of our ac-
quaintance, from the humblest to the
highest.
First there are the lowly but neces-
sary ginghams. After making sure of
her favorite color, buy the half-inch
plaids instead of the old fine plaids;
then embellish the border above the

a hundred years had elapsed since the

had, in fact, been whitewashed from

radiators, and there was no ventila-

door and windows.

interest, though he was no antiquary,
and did not know that it had once
been the chimney of the great mon-
astic kitchen. He noticed that the.
iron door of an old bread oven had
been openedwsince he had last looked
at it. He had once tried to'open'
himself, but had been unable to do
so. "A likely place for a man to hide

piece of silk to the catch so that no

quarter of an inch. And then, as he
looked out of the window, he saw Ard-
ington returning to the house alone.
When Ardington entered the hall
he saw his' second 'footman standing
by one of the south windows and star-
ing idly down the drive.
