One of the many attractive styles Is pictured here worn with a one piece box-pleated dress of ser^o. They fre very often used in this way ; for ln ntead of wearing a suit, a warm wool *011 dress of serge, broadcloth or velvet with one of these ca|H's is quite enough protection from the cold.

"Awful !" declared Jack. "Let's go out and give him a punch and dump hun Into the latee.'x ? j 1'eggy giggled. "Mflybe he'll be gone when we get there !"

So, tiptoeing through the shrubs, Jack grabbed the bench in both hands, suddenly tilted It toward th6 water and ? splash ! The little man was In. Jack came back grinning. "He can't drown. It's only four feet there. Come on, let's go over to the sum merhouso and hunt up the kids. So, leaving their victim to dry out as best he could, they climbed the hill J to the little rustic summerhouse, where three children in charge of a nurse were having a glorious time. The baby held its little arms up to Peggy. "You darling," she cried lift ing it. Baby gurgled with delight. Peggy buried her face in the soft JU-. tie neck. "Let's take her back with u?," she begged. "Tn talc o good care of her !" smiled Peggy to the nurse as she started down the hill with her burden. "I'll have to hurry," quickening her pace. 'Tin ? I'm expected at the house.

"Take Tier along 1" - "Just as.y<>u say," he agreed doubt fully, "You go in and I'll Join you in ?'-minute." Five minutes later Jack Park re turning through the big hall heard a familiar song, "Mammy's Little Ala bama Coon," coming from the crowd ed drawing room. - He looked through the door and there Reside the piano, her arm thrown aronnd the baby, stood Peggy singing. ?Her hair curled In pretty confusion, her dress was rumpled and a smudge of chocolate showed near the dimple In her cheek. "Hush-fi-by, my 111 pickaninny," *he sang In a rich, full voice thrilled Jack -to his very toes.
