skirts, even the plainest have punching
in the shape of gathers or tucks around
the hips. and the short length, together
with the absence of ruffles around the
bottom Except ultra wide ones), is
certainly trying to any but a tall, slen-
Ger figure.
A rather good model which I saw
recently would be becoming to slen-
der little figure. but not, alas. to a
plump one. Briefly, it was a skirt cut
very full around the lower edge and
gathered Slightly about the hips. Two
rows of ruching gave additional full
ness at the bottom. Midway, around
the knees, the fullness was held to-
gether here and there by tiny silk ro-
settles, and this rosette trimming was
Of course duplicated on the waist.
Rosette trimmings are all the rage.
One even sees them on wash waists of
fine dimity inlet with lace, and the ro-
settles in this case are made of lace,
and from them hang little tassels,
which are to be removed when the
waist is washed.
1 notice that all the smart women are
trying to look as plump as possible.
Leanness is no longer the fashion.
Those who have the slightest tendency
toward it are wearing ruffied corset
covers, which make them stick out
like pouter pigeons In fact, with the
thin, embroidered waists these corset
covers are a necessity, for it's a silly
girl who will wear tight fitting slip
with a loose, thin waist.

perhaps my synpathies are with the
men in this world. for from the bottom
of my heart 1 feel sorry for the man
who is keenly alive at the age of forty
or fifty and is tied to a woman who

interest in life goes. 1 know one such
man. He is as fond of sport as it is
possible for a young man to be, his
skin is brown from the winds and sum-
his eyes are keen and alert with health
and the joy of being alive. He has

of a good horse and a good dog. His
wife cares about none of these things.
She hardly ever uses the automobile
or puts her foot on board the yacht.
Athletics bore her, and her pet delight
is the giving of pink teas and going to
woman's clubs. She is and feels frank

There used to be a feeling that man

be lazy and that woman had. But now
that's all changed. There is no more
room in the world for lazy woman
than there is for lazy man. The wo-

due to him in return, such as caring
tenderly both for him and for the

WRITING FOR NEWSPAPERS.

One of the sign marks of the novice
in Journalism is to write to an editor
after in all probability, having got an
introduction and say, Il should be glad
to do any sort of work" Let not would
be young journalists fall into this irri-
tating, though, of course innocent, pit
fall. Even if you have an introduce
tion-which is only useful if the per-
son giving you the Introduction is of
any Importance, either socially or to
the editor to whom the Introduction is
made-get ready some practical sug-
gestion which you can lay before the
editor or make none at all and wait
till you have one.
Now, the kind of article which young
writer's are so fond, as rule, of pro-
ducing, in which they give their opin-
ions on, say, the modern novel or on
the value of free libraries, has no COM
mercial value at all in the journalistic
world unless it is strikingly clever or
witty, which, as a general rule. it is
not. Literary subjects, abstract ones,
impersonal ones, should all be avoided
till the position is secure, and the name
of the writer is a guarantee of inter-
esting work. But, then, what are the
subjects that the novice can employ
with any chance of success?
Now, here, what natural cleverness
there is in the would be journalist must
show itself. For the demands of the
reading public you must have some
sort of intuitive sense. If you have it,
you can cultivate it, and in time it gets
second habit. If you haven't it, and it
is extremely possible that a highly in
tellectual man or woman could not
have it, then you had better abandon
the notion of being a modern journal
list. But most everyday folk with ev-
eryday tastes and interests have it, and
it needs only A little encOura cling

gap in the hills where the sea showed.
For the first time in her life she con-
sidered seriously a ship gliding past
that gap in the hills. She was ten
years old then and had begun to think.
She wondered where that ship was
going. Then instantly she thought:
"Shall L ever go away in a ship? 1

When her father came home and
rested in the evening he sat in an oak
en- chair, and the little maiden was ac-
customed to perch herself upon its
arm and ask him questions, which he
was never too tired or too grumpy to
answer. That evening she asked first
thing:
Father, shall I ever go away any
where in a ship and see the world?"

tunately a large library, a legacy from
a grandfather. The subject matter of
tbs books ranged from Longfellow's
poems to the Irish land question. The
girl thought she must know ever, thing

see the world. With true Irish enthu-
siasm. she tackled each volume in that

She herself was living actor in it ALL

the case might be.
When she was sixteen her brothers
and other youths of the neighborhood
wished to start brass band. 1t was
not a question with them whether they
could play the horns, but how they
could get the horns and the uniforms.
I'll give a pay lecture on the Irish
land question, and the money you take
in at the door will get you these
things" said Martha. The boys caught
at the proposition. They had posters
printed, advertising the lecture among
the hills and valleys of Antrim. The
lecture was given in a tiny school
house, and the audience filled it COM
pletely to hear the first public speech
of their little neighbor girl. There
was not even left standing room
only" The boys thereby got the mon
ey to equip themselves for their brass
band.
The clergyman of the Craigs' parish
told Martha's mother that the girl
ought to be sent away to school. To
an educational Establishment in Eng
land accordingly she went, learned all
it had to impart. then herself became a
teacher in a school near Oxford uni
versity. About this time she began
writing for an oxford newspaper on
the topic near to her heart-the Irish
land question Her contributions at
tracted notice from some of the oxford
professors. They wished to know
something of the man who had written
those papers. A personal meeting with
the author followed.

Miss Jones.

Let us say Mrs. Jones and her daugh-
ter make an afternoon call or attend an
at home. AS they enter they leave
upon a tray in the hall the card bear
ing their names. If several ladies are
receiving together as many cards are
left as there are hostesses. Where a
hostess young unmarried daughter re-
ceives with her, however, only one card
is necessary.
Cards are now never turned down at
the corners. Neither are the letters "R.
S. V. P" generally printed upon invita-
tons. Natural gumption and polite
ness dictate that all important invita-
tions should be answered promptly, Ell
Their accepting or declining, without
any "R. S. V. p" hint.
Husbands in our country are gener-
ally too busy to make afternoon calls.
So it comes about that when a mar
ried lady makes a call she takes with
her her husbands cards and leaves
them with her own, to show that Ma
George Washington Jones would pay
his respects in person If he had time.
If it is Mrs. Jones first call of the sea-
son on a hostess she usually leaves two
of her husbands cards, probably mean
ing that Mr.. George Washington Jones
would call at least twice if he ha2
time.
If one is invited to dinner it is good
form to make a personal call within a
week or ten days in recognition of the
hospitality, leaving, as always, ones
card. If one has not opportunity to do
this it will be graceful to send little
note thanking the host and hostess for
a delightful evening.
In making the dinner call a lady
leaves, besides her own card, two os
her husbands in recognition of the
host as well as hostess.
If you call on friend who is visiting
in a house where you are not acquains-
ed it is proper to leave two cards. one
for the mistress of the ho-=s, even
though unknown to the visitor. If OTsS
visits a friend at a hotel before you
send your card write upon it the name
also of the person you wish to see.
thus: For Miss Smith" This will pre-
vent mistakes.
Finally, tact. kindness and gump-
ton will tel you what to do in every
instance. KATHERINE BLADES.
