away from such commonplace things as
seeing the bread is well baked or the table
properly set. / merely mention the minor
matters that are referred to by the folks
who are In doubt as to the ACCESSIBILITY OF
the ambitious woman slipping her pretty
neck under the yoke of matrimOny.
The ambitious girl past %. who has a
romance in the background. did not alto
gether need her bit of disappointment to
bring out her best efforts along the work
she has chosen to do. She was an ambitious
girl long before that event. In fact, it was
because she was ambitious that she was eX-
acting, and being eXacting. it hurt her deep
ly when the object of her affection did
not come up to her demands.
| Do you know that the quiet girl seldom Is
Disappointed Just why this is you may en-
terrain a reason Just as well as 1 do. though
l am certain it will not accord with mine.
The quiet girl is discussed quite as much
as the ambitious girl. and no two people
agree about her and her ways.
One never associated the quiet girl with
the ambitious girl; one never puts them in
the same class. The ambitious girl is some
times quiet as a mouse, but only some
times. She is usually fussy- 1t is her Won
derful amount of energy and eagecness that

with the trifles that are bound to come up
In everyday life. These she never regards
as something to be borne with, but rather
puts them down as obstacles in her path,
not to be lived through. but showed aside.
And now, to get right to the point, this
is why the wise ones regarding her close
ly say that the matrimonial chances of
the ambitious girl are not as good as those
of the quiet girl.
l Rnt I for ono want right here RI taxa tho

ambitious girl is often sadly misunderstood
Has it never occurred to you that it is just
possible that she laughs at love to hide her
tears? And when all is said and done. the
ambitious girl is better worth the winning
than the girl who thinks matinees and aft
ernoon teas the only things worth her while.
But the wise ones are right who say that
the ambitious girl, taken collectively. Is
fussy. When she has overcome this fault
she will be more interesting. much more
interesting. than she is now with the tiIerns
all ready to do their sharp little work.
There is the story of a romance from real
life that is going the rounds of the press
Just now and has formed the subject for
much comment that is pleasant. And this
Is the way 1t runs: A man, a wealthy man,

Sleeves are varied in style and diverse in

arInhole by stitched tucks, is quite up to
date. Other sleeves are tight at the top
and bell-shaped from the elbow, and are
supplemented by a Bishop cuff of more or
less depth. For shirts there are fancy
Bishop sleeves, closely shaped above, but
wider toward the wrist. and altogether dis
similar to their title. Many are cut almost
wide enough to merit the name. but are
tucked to form quite 4 small sleeve, and
others have tucks only at the top, and are
gathered to a close band or a gauntlet cuff.
Elbow sleeves have quite returned to favor

ated frills. Elbow sleeves of silk are tucked
lergthways, and terminate in some tabled
fashion over friils OF lace or pleatings of

to show the arm.

Of this romance Is of the Quiet Girl type
who has bowed her shapely head over books
and papers at q desk near the reserved
mans for a number of years-I believe it is
twelve.
The man has Travelled over the world. has
met beautiful and witty women, has come
in contact with numberless ambitious wom-
en-. All the while the Quiet Girl sat at her
desk and worked patiently and faithfully.
For a time the man of this romance from
real life paid little attention to the young
girl. any more than to note that she was of
pleasing appearance and gentle manner.
Then the years went on. and the girl grew
to womanhood and her assistance in the of
fee was rated as something valuable. Pres
emily the sedate man noticed that when the
Quiet Girl was not 1T her desk there seemed
to be u something missing more than her

poplin are quite dressy and are included
In the young woman's wardrobe to the
extent Of two or three in number. Poplin
tucks beautifully, and the fronts Of
these waists are run in the finest Of
tucks done In clusters and separated by
, a wider tuck. with tucking at the back
to correspond. The sleeves are tucked
correspondingly over the tops and the
| pointed cuffs that fall over the wrists
are also tucked. Again, the groups Of
| tucks are divided by bands Of white
embroidery wrought In the garment, or
strips of colored embroidery in Oriental
colors. Bolero jackets are often worn
over the poplin bodices, these made Of
heavy cream or ecru tinted laces, or Of
black taffeta embroidery in the cut-out
style. These little boleros are very
fashionable and Frenchy. They look
well worn over flannel blouses Of vari-
Gus colors or with the more dressy
bodices in silken stuffs.
Speaking Of the embroidered bands
that trim the poplin blouses, strips of
embroidery are used extensively on the
extra waists of all materials and trim
entire gowns as well, also having q place
to some extent on the wraps. A very
fetching blouse Of white broadcloth has
a trimming of black bands embroidered
in black and white. A blue flannel
blouse Is embellished with bands Of
white, embroidered in black.

most a bolero. and the three-quarter coat,
with a good deal of fuilness in the skirt,
this amplitude necessitated by the length
Of the coat. The long coat. or pelisse, which
completely covers the gown, will also be
fashionably worn, but its followers will be

garments.

}the general rule is
N-- }what folks generally
at and talk about
In affairs that belong to every day. and
this is the general rule that 1 am refer
ring to.
The romance of the ambitious girl would
read lust lie a story" a long time ago
some years back at least-there was a man
who told her that she was the dearest
girl in the world. and she believed him.
And why shouldn't she. pray? He told her
the truth-he did love her. Just as much
as his little soul was capable of. He wrote
her charming notes. and gave her pretty
books and fans at Christmas times and
upon birthday anniversaries. Then the man
disappointed the girl in a thousand little
ways. and after awhile they parted. For a
time she read over and over again the
tender notes and said to herself that all men
were false, were not worth trusting and
loving. and then she tore up all the notes
except the last few. which were cruel. No
body knows why, but a woman will always
keep the cruel letters the longest. May be
she finds a grim sort Of comfort in hugging
them to her heart.
After a time the ambitious girl blossoms
out like q flower. but like 4 flower that
has thorns. She says to herself that love
and romance are all behind her and that
fshe will live for her work. Often this is
a very good thing for the work. 1t -four

satisfying-satisfying until there comes a
day when the old dreams of hore-life and
love are all stirred into being. as they will
be. just to haunt one who believes she has
put them aside for always. The thorns
show when the ambitious girl laughs and
makes light Of the love affairs of some
other girl. They show when she says. with
the air of a world-tried cynic. Love is all
nonsense. anyway" And 1t is the discover
ing Of these thorns that has made an oc-
c~asional somebody say that marriage Is
not for the ambitious woman. OF course,
there are other reasons why they say this,
too. For instance. the ambitious woman is

wearing of tulle on hats intended for the
cold season may seem rather odd, but
the effect is charming, it is so cloud
like.
In the daytime the hair is worn high
as well as in the evening. With the
street hat the high coil does not show at
all, only the soft waves at the sides and

be both a comfortable and becoming
