TRIUMPH OF A SIMPLY DRESSED SOUTHERN GIRL.

Dear, dear, there's another one of my girls taken from me-"
 So it happened, after all, that Ellie had to go. Each sister wanted to lend her something-fans, new pair of gloves, a fine handkerchief-and all these kind offers she accepted, but she drew the line at her mother going into debt one penny to buy her new frock. Tor" said she (and she said 1t with a certain amount of defiance), If New port and my wealthy relatives don't approve of me, I can always come home" and then, like the good, affec- tionate creature she was, sine threw her self into her mothers arms to be hug ged and kissed as if she had just cele- brated her fifth birthday
 Fife was something of a surprise to Mime. Grandame. She declined with dignity all the beautiful dresses and lovely belongings, adding to her re- fusal, 'It was very kind of you to think of me, but I am sure when you and mother were girls a white mousse line gown was enough for you and her,

A dark silk waist is admirable, although less costly ones may be made of dark chintZ or lawn. Plain dark blue or dark red chintz waists are very pretty and may be worn a long time before they need washing. Finished with a white collar and a tie, nothing can be heater. Three such waists and a half dozen linen collars are fair pro- vision. Ce1luloid collars are a further economy, and even the most careless schoolgirl is thus assured of a clean collar always at hand.

And so the days went on, and in her print frocks in the mornings, with the big leghorn hat hiding her face from the sun, when she wore her dainty colored lawns in the afternoons and her white gowns in the evenings, the girls who were very much dressed began to look at her and wonder if simplicity were not the right frame for youth Fife enjoyed her life as only a good girl can, and her onaperon was too clever wo- man to open her eyes to the wicked ness of this world.
 One day they had little unpleasant ness. Mime. Grandame thought that she didn't quite understand what she was doing when she refused tfae hand, handbook, four-in-h hand and what he was pleased to call heart of the young man whose grandfather had probably arrived in this land of the free in the steerage. not that that was a disgrace to him. but as Fife said, Why should I marry him when I love somebody else and have accepted him?"
 Then Mime. Grandarne did lose her temper. She screamed.
