gent thought and study is required to
accomplish the former. When all is
said and done. the chiefest and sim
plest rule is but word consistency.
If you are converted to color scheme
stick to it, subordinating your entire
wardrobe to its influence; if your
physique demands the trig and trim,
insist upon every garment bearing
ample testimony of the one plan; If
you would be chiffonesque, never
omit valenciennes or point de Paris
Preserve an identity in which is Grad
eled consistency. do not mean that
prevailing fashions are to be ignored;
but instead of blindly following the
dictates of the tickle goddess adapt
them to your personal requirements,
and the combination will never fail
to produce most satisfying results.
TO demonstrate how easily solved
the problem is, we'll consider the tall,
willowy girl with penchant for tai
tornado gowns. She wishes a new
dress suitable for wear at receptions.
She desires it to be elegant according
to tailor plan. She decides upon vel
vet. 1t is cut in princess form, pre-
serving her liking for tailor effective
hess, and can be trimmed in fat bands
of heavy lace, either in scroll designs
or laid on that with a yoke. and
sleeves of lace to relieve the severity
of the cut and fabric. The result is a
festive frock for milady, who scorns
furbelows yet would hesitate to mar
the beauty of the occasion by appear
ing in tweed or homespun. She has
followed the mode of the moment in
the cut Of her garment, has done hon.
age to the prerogative of convention
ality in the fabrics employed and has
been true to herself by evolving from
tailor chart a superb and unmannish
costume.
The daring sister" is just as apt to
appear in straw hat before the peri
wrinkles bloom as she is to startle Pc
destrians on the avenue by wearing
a muff in May, yet she will unques-
tionably fall heir to the title of "W.
D. W." putting forth no greater effort
than this. Then our Edna Mays will
appear, time without limit, verit-
able bundle of frou frous, and in their
wake even the gamins will exclaim:
Amt she a peach"-than which there
can be no higher tribute from the
standard of the stage, for these self
same street urchins at nighttime are
the gallery gods, who harness the star
to the chariot of fame.
Since the English custom of donning
the low cut gown for dinner has been
adopted in America. evening bodices
constitute separate and most impor-
tant study for those who observe the
formalities. 1 don't mean the very
rich, for they long ago conformed to
the London dictum, but those of us
who realize the value of appearances
and are accustomed always to fresh
ening up" a bit before the men folks
come home from business. To us the
evening bodice at first was somewhat
of problem until we bethought our
selves of the possibilities of old silk

both the deuce and four OF hearts
are missing. Partner Lay be I'M

or he may be simply unlocking and
one of the opponents calling, or both

North completes his call, and East
undoubtedly holds all the hearts that
West does not. East is in difficult
position, as he cannot continue hearts
because the weak hand would ruff and
the strong discard. He has good rea-
sons for not desiring to lead either
of the other two plain suits, in both
of which he is weak, and determines
on the bold course of leading trumps
right up to the calling hand. His
purpose is to disarm South, and then
force North.

and the result appears to depend al
most entirely upon the management Of
trumps. The situation is not new

to more thoroughly impress the prin-

North is not playing well in sepa-
rating his winning trump from his
losers. West must hold his major
tenace in diamonds. also his good
hearts, so discards the beginning OF
all echo in clubs. to show the ace
later, if it becomes necessary. II the

in sight for West, except one club
trick.

Now the hands are all easily marked
to West except the size of the clubs.
North must hold the 2 and OF dia-
monds, the jack OF trumps and 2 of
Clubs East the Q of hearts, the queen
of trumps and three clubs; South the
king and of diamonds and three
clubs AS South preferred to open a
four-card diamond suit rather than a
five-card club suit at the fifth trick,
he probably holds no club better than
the jack. Vests best plan now Is to
lead the ace OF diamonds and allow
East to discard the of hearts, so as to
get ready to over-trump North. OF
course, if he did not hold a re-entry
in clubs, he would not give up control
OF the diamonds just yet, IS he is sure
to make his ace.
Trick s............. B "a. 81 B E 6 5
East disappoints us in refusing to
discard the heart. He evidently lacks
confidence in Vests ability TO read the
situation and to master it, but this is
no reason why West should give up in
despair. East must have either the
king or queen of clubs with a guard,
as it is hardly to be supposed that he
would have led trumps from four up
to the calling hand for the heart suit
simply, without some protection in one
or the other suits, at least. So, in re-
fusing to lead the OF clubs, West dis
plays a return lack Of confidence in
East that is natural, but hardly COM
mendable.

AS East turns up with the guarded
king of clubs and the last trump, the
other tricks are easily won by East
and West, but the one that was lost is
chargeable primarily to East secondly
to West, and each lacked faith In his
partner at the critical moment.

the administration cannot protest
against Injurious legislation pending in
the German legislature, it has developed
that it has been making a quiet ~investt-
cation to ascertain the extent of the
a~duiteration of German importations in
to the United States.
This investigation has extended to the
imports of other European vernme
which impose restrictions upon Ameri-
can goods. In the case of Germany the,
information to be obtained will be of VAL

ment shall adopt should the meat inspec-

: This Investigation which has beer go-

the objection raised by the German, gov
eminent against American products also
exists in German goods. This discovery
Is very gratifying to the. officials. as it
furnishes them with an excellent weapon
to be. employed in case of need. German
wines are said to contain ad%ulterants
and the president, should he determine
to do so, can take measures to exclude

Examination of a statement of the pro-
visions of the bill reported by the reichs-
tag committee, shows, the authorities
say, that American meats can be entire
~ excluded. The press dispatches in
dictate that the conditions relative to in
spection had been modified, but Ambas-
sador Whites dispatch that
the bill cOntemplates an imperial inspec-
ton at the port of entry and a local in
