Chicago and after the marriage he re-
turned TO Indiana with his bride.
For a week all was contentment, and
then clouds began to gather. The wife
wanted to lease the farm and she wanted
to do this and to do that, in direct opposi-
tion to his Quaker principles, and finally
she left and he returned to his deserted
home, a sadder and wiser man. The trouble
is best explained by an interview which a
reporter had with Mr.. Whittig. When the
newspaper representative asked him about
the affair the minister replied; yes. she
has left me-

porter.
The preacher shrugged his shoulders and
replied: "A good many things. First she

New FOulard Gowns.
How wondrously gray the new foulard
gowns arel This spring the manufactur-
ers have sought to revive goods with fancy
borders, and oddly enough the broad bord-
cred foulard has led all the rest. Where
the silk weavers showed their unusual good
sense was in making the border very wide
and giving II q ribbon effect. Hordes OF
f~oulards or peau de ~printemps, as one va
riety of this silk is called. are turned out,
boasting absolutely no other decoration
than their own s~prightly borders used with
skill and good sense.
One way to treat q border Is suggested by
the spectacle OF a house gown for after
noon wear sketched as Its owner wore Il.
A most satisfactory Canton blue and pure
porcelain white was the color scheme of
the foulard itself. The border TO this
had evidently been wide and was most
cheerfully imprinted In great bouquets of
pink roses and pale yellow guelder roses.

Some of the light hats of the season have

A Lace Blouse.
Here Is q pale, pale green lining over
which goes one thickness Of chiffon OF yet

are applied. The chiffon comes forward on

into . high collar and a broad bias strip of

There is lots OF novelty In this waist, and
what recommends these loose lace blouses
is their a~daptability to luncheon and after
noon at home and theater costumes. when
helped out by q plain velvet or corduroy
skirt.
OF course. all waists are not made Of
lace, but there are mighty few exceptions
to the rule in favor Of loading all odd
blouses with as much lace as they can
carry. Look. for instance, at the group
Of three dear delights, meant for wear
with nice. simple light or dark skirts and
on nearly any and all occasions. The waist
IN the center is made wholly Of lace, coarse

worked with narrow black velvet ribbon.

ONLY ONE WEEK OF BLISS.
Chicago Bride wearies of Life ON an
Indiana Farm.

y n aEAhAs
Rev. w. H. whittig is a preacher Of the
Society Of Friends who lives on a farm near
Washington, Ind. Up to a short time ago
he was in the enjoyment of single blessed
ness, relates the Chicago Chronicle, but he
was not satisfied. He wanted a wife to
share his Joys and divide his SORROWS.
None Of the young women Of his vicinity
suited his fancy and 80 Me applied to a
matrimonial agency in Chicago for one who
should meet his requirements. She was
found and proved to be fair, fat and
forty-nine, a widow who understood house,
hold cares and would look after the COM
fort of himself and children. He forwarded
a letter and she replied at once, giving
her address as Emma Harden, with her
home in Harrison street.
The minister continued the correspond
ence and after a few weeks she consented
to marriage, provided he came to Chicago
after her. HNTE thst he would come

Supremacy OF white.
NEW YORK. Feb. 2s.-In all the bright
lexicon Of Lenten fashions there is nothing
newer than the lace blouse threaded with
hkSk baby velvet ribbon. Those who speak
and dress from the fullness Of exact knowl-
edge on sartorial matters and a fell equip
ped purse hold out for the rich cheese vel
low Irish crochet lace. or batiste lace Of
the same tone where a blouse is concerned.
The lace should be dropped on a white
lining that is, Of course, separated from its
top layer of splendor by a single thickness

material. Many women have a liking for

treated the skirt IN clusters Of close SEA
pinohed tucks running In deep vandykes.
At the foot she set on the border In n
shaped Hover effect and Of the border she
also made a little shorter tailed directory
jacket effect for the waist. Her triumph
was unquestloned and not a scrap OF lace
had she used.
So many Of the new dresses are made
nat and even cut out a little in the neck
that the question Of collars and their
height and usefulness is being gently agi-
tated In fitting rooms. Flat necks and
open necks are assuredly most eomforta-

almost becoming, but they are In the dis
tressing minority, and collars of choking
height will probably finish the neeks OF
nine-tenths OF the best spring suits.
