Tur YouNesrpR TOLD HIM

From the London Tit-Bits A school inspector was examining a class in grammar and trying to explain the relations of adjectives and nouns by telling an example.
 Now, for instance" he said, "what am F"
 That was an easy question, and all the children shouted, "A man!" and then looked around triumphantly. as much as to say Ask another"
 "Yes, but what else?" said the inspector. This was not so easy, but, after pause, a boy ventured to suggest, "A little man."
 "Yes, but there Is something more than that"
 This was poser for the youngsters, but, after a moments puzzled silence, an infant phenomenon almost leaped from his seat fin his eagerness, and cried to the inspectors: "Please, sir, know-an ugly little man!'

reach below the belt in front, are added to
the waists OF some Of he fashionable sum-

foulard or India silk, patterned with small
blossoms and leaves, says a New York
fashion writer. The batiste is remarkably
sheer and pure white. 1t is edged with
design in Flemish point or Venice lace in
black or white. This lace is woven in with
and not sewed to the edges of the batiste
frills. Cream or white laces are naturally
used oftenest on muslin dresses. Still there
are this season many instances where hand
some black lace is selected. which is clever
ly used to tone down the very gay effect of
Powered material, making at the same time
a charming dressy toilet for woman OF
mature years But this is by no means con-
fined to such uses. as it appears with
equally good effect on elaborate gowns for
youthful women. Black velvet ribbon is
usually added. and the lace is very lightly
gathered. to lose none of it's transparency
against the delicate background, and to
show distinctly its beautiful device.
Lace is still so prodigally used on count
less other materials that it is an agreeable

Many pretty morning dresses are made of
soft-inished French zephyr, fine Scotch
ginghams. chambray, and fancy madras.
The light, dainty colors that look cool are
most used in these gowns. Their trimmings
are insertions and ruffles Of white embroid-

Dresses with ivory or crcam-white
grounds, figured with colored designs, have
satin ribbon sashes four or five inches wide,
while contrasts of color are effectively worn
in velvet, as. for instance, mauve and
white ginsham with pale primrose yellow
velvet stock and girdle. or soft sage green
