THE LATEST FEMININE CoLoRs
Talking OF the fashions, it is gravely an
nounced that two shades of blue will be most
in vogue, garter blue and St Patrick blue.
l have always thought green the shade
specially dedicated to the saint about whom
it is SO positively announced that he was a
gentleman, but it is Just possible be may
have had some blue affiliations. Garter
blue is dark, rich tone, not at all trying,
but a little brighter than the deep navy.
st. Patrlck's blue is paler shade, touching
on the Mazarin. The first is probably much
more becoming than the last. Blue is good
color for the summer, because it always
looks cool, and 80, for that reason, all the
pretty girls are likely to wear it. How

THE PRETTIKsT GIRL OF ALL
wants to look most in fashion, she must get
herself up after one OF the pictures from an
old fashioned book of beauty Her hair
must be curled, and upon it she must wear
shepherdess hat, with wreath of roses
inside of it, while about her waist must be
a deep girdle that will make her look little
short-waisted. She can pose with a rose in
her hand although when she is without Ter
hat the rose may find place IN her hair

birthday suit. she held a mask up to her
face-that was her costume. That picture
has been photographed and is very generally
sold through the United States, and yet it is

THINGS TO BE RENoUNCED.
How have you gotten along with your re-
nunciations!
l heard a man wish that some of the old
women who give life to dead scandals, and
who talk over, with morbid and gnoulish
glee, the misfertunes of others, would re-
nonnce this world-the flesh having re-
nounced them and the devil having no use
for them. and made me think OF what could
be renowned.
Women who dye their hair might re-
nounce the chemist.
Lawyers and doctors might renounce
fibs.
Pretty women might renounce flirta-

Actresses might renounce painting their

Housekeepers might renounce bad cook

Men might renounce gambling.
Women might renounce indigestible
sweets

be renowned. but please, good Mr.. Editor,
don't rsnounce Bah,
