SIGNOR t U LT of Milan, a fam-
ous composer, is about to make his
first appearance in I,ond0n. file is to
conduct the first performance of a sym-
phony of his own composition p,t the
Queen's Hall. The event has aroused
very great interest, The 1ia11 Is crowd-
ed, and millions of listeners are waiting
for the performance to come over the
radio.

Each season offers certain dis-
tinctive fashion details that help the
home dressmaker, provided she has
the ingenuity to adapt these fea-
tures to her particular sewing needs.
Just now one's attention is called to
the practical advantages of shirrings
and pleats—especially in the work
of remodeling. Both of these dress_
making details, so emphasized at the
moment, have the pleasant quality
of concealing unwanted seams in an
ornamental way, while their expand-
ing possibilities recommend them to
anyone who. is remodeling clothes
for growing girls. Shirring is es-
pecially obliging, as iti admits of a
fabric being pieced horizontally —
the seams concealed in the evenly
placed rows of gathers — and also
vertically, as the piecing will be hid-
den in the fulness below the lines
of shirring.
"Here, constable—up here, behind

reverently, the policemen, thedocd the

body gently up on to the platform.
The leader of the orchestra, a middle-
aged man who had reached the am-
bition of his life, to lead his men un-
der the baton of the great Parelli, led
the way for the sad little group --
a stricken man. A hand lifted the dark
curtain, and the little band passed
through into the passage -way beyond.
"Not here, sir—not here." The
leader of the orchestra had inclined
towards the door. marked "Principals

greatest "Principal" he knew.
"Beg pardon, sir, but the two ladies
that were to sing here to -night are
still in there. Fainted --one of them
did. They're not fit to see this." The
attendant who had barred the way
shuddered—turned away from the
burden which the other men were
carrying. The little procession, which
had monentarily stopped, went slowly
forward again. The leader guided
them on down the gas -lit stairway,'
into the long dark narrow room
beneath the platform where the mem-
bers of the orchestra kept their in-
struments and made ready for their
concerts. On the long narrow bench
which' ran down the centre of the long
gloomy room the body of the dead
conductor was laid. The rows of black
'cello cases packed round the sides
looked down with their square sight-
less heads upon the eerie scene. This
was indeed a hall of silent sombre
death.
"It looks to me like angina pec-
toris." The young doctor spoke. An
older man, his evening shirt crumpled
and bent from his difficult passage
through the crowd in the Hall, his
grey hair straggling untidily over his
face, shook his head.
"Seems more to me like poisoning.
The policemen and the other doctors
looked incredulously at each other.
"But, sir—poison? And how?" The
young doctor was completely non-
«
plussed. Are there poisons which act
'there was a commotion at the top
of the narrow stairway which led to
the platform above.
"Excuse rte, sir, excuse me." A
policeman had rushed to the foot of
the stairs to bar the way of the in-
truder. "See what I've got—I've got
something to say :something to show
you—d'ye hear?" The man who had
tried to keep the interloper out gave
way. Into the midst of the little group
which was clustered about the body
which lay, for ever silent, on the
players bench, rushed a young man
dressed in a chaffeur•'s uniform. He
thrust forward some object wrapped
in a soiled handkerchief.
"I found it— I found it," cried Tom
Harris. "And there can't be none o'
my fingerprints on it because I wrap-
ped it in my handkerchief." He un-
rolled the package. Out on to the
bench, at the foot of the dead Parelli,
rolled the- jewelled conductor's baton.
Hubby—I'm glad you only want $5
to go shopping with today. What are
you going to get with it?
Wife—Nothing but luncheon, dear.

"I've brought you the blinking
baton: what more do you want?" His
manner was more defiant than ever.
Inspector Haynes used a more" con-
ciliatory tone. He knew the danger
and inconvenience of antagonising
witnesses.
"You see, Mr. . ?" "Harris,"
interjected the chauffeur, "M'r. Harris
—you've done a very creditable• thing
bringing this baton to us." Harris was
still inclined to be bellicose.
"What d'ye mean—very creditable?
Think I want to pinch the thing?•
"No, no," interposed the Inspeetor
quickly, "not at all. What I mean is
that without your help it might have
been lost or stolen. And it may prove

"Funny thing is," said. Harris—his'

A WIDOW'S DILEMMA

and is left with the task of bringing

with which some women ,have faced
such a task, and the success they
have made of it, can only invoke one's
admiration. I have a letter this week
from a widow who is in a dilemma.
Let me quote a part of her letter:

fact that we do is' apt, pernaps `to
make mothers a little bit more sensi-
tive regarding the conduct of their
daughters.
A young women, like the one con-
cerned here, needs to be handled
carefully. To adopt an unsympathetic
and scolding attitude toward her may
do more to drive her along the wrong
path than anything else. After all,
she is not yet twenty and she is just
at that age when she is going through
that experience which psychologists
call "the period of stress and storm",
and lrer present conduct maybe noth-
ing more than her reaction to those
changes which are taking place with-
in her. Perhaps she will settle down
soon herself and see the wisdom of
taking things in moderation wi:�iout
your having to do anything about it.
But I fancy that you are too anxious
to wait for things to take their nor-
mal course. Probably you even feel
that if she is not checked now there
can be no telling where she will land.
And, in a sense, you may be right.
What this girl needs is wise direction.
I would advise you to have a straight
heart to heart talk with her. Watch
for an opportune moment and then
open up with the conversation quiet-
ly. Try to slhpw your love and your
thought for her in your conversation.
I mean, of course, more in the tone
and manner of your speech than in
the words you use. If you begin to
talk to her in "deary deary" terms
she will almost certainly resent it.
Point out that there is nothing -wrong
in wanting to have a little pleasure
and that you are quite willing that
she should have it. But hake clear
to her also that over -indulgence in
anything is always bad for •one and
that, in the ultimate, the highest
values in life are not material, but
mental, moral and spiritual.
