This is not, however, neces- sarily the case( In the trade `Orange Pekoe' is only a name given to the first leaf below the bud or tip on any Indian or Ceylon tea bush. An `Orange Pekoe' leaf grown at a high elevation usually possesses a very fine flavour. 0, hodvever, the plant is grown,,at a low elevation, it may still be `Orange Pekoe' but also be of very poor quality.

They„ilid not meet again till after dinner, for Rankine had made no ar eangenent corning his seat at table, and found the .breadth of the dining -saloon between hire and his room -mate. But, quite naturally, theydrifted together on deck and began, to stroll round, feeling more and more drawn to ono another. "I suppose you've bean often across the Atsantio?" -.said Rankine, fully conscious of a desire to know more of the man towards whom he felt so oddly drawn. "This is my thirteenth time. Per- haps it maybring ine a bit of luck. I haven't had much up to date." "A queer thing is luck,' saki Ran- kine, musingly, as he made pause to strike -a match. "It' has no truck with some folks apparently, I've seen whole families blighted through lack of it, while others, no more deserving, flourish like the green bay tree!" "That's so," assented Affery, and this time there was such an unmistak- ably American twang in his- accent that Rankine hastily decided he must 6e an out-and-out Yankee. "I'm with you there; and sometimes it does seem as if it wasn't worth while fighting against it. Drifting with the tide is a darned sight easier." "There isn't much drift about you, I could bet my bottom dollar," ob- served Rankine, with a sharp side - glance at the keen, virile profile Affery laughed. - "I can hop round a bit when neces- sary. The trouble is, all the hopping doesn't amount sometimes to a hill of beans. What are you going to Am- erica for, may I ask? You needn't answer unless you like, you know. I've been nine years out. Long enough to contract the universal national habit of inquiring into another man's business, though, at the sane time, keeping a pretty tight and even finger on ones own.'

TOT. - There are many ways to trim this little slip-on party frock, and in many of the figured materials no. trimming at all is necessary. The panel front and back are joined on shoulders, the kimono sleeves cut in one with 'side - front side -front and side -back sections. Narrow belts, which' hold in the fullness at sides, may be omitted. This little frock, with either round or square neck, is slashed down at centre -front and tied with a ribbon bow, or it may be caught together with -hooks and eyes. The frock . pictured here is made of blue and white percale, the only trimming being w'n to linen bind- ings; the belts at sides are al;o of white linen. Chambray, gingham and soft woollen fabrics are practical materials for making it. For dressy wear, taffeta, printed siks or wash silks are very striking.
