Just think, T~huminfnger & CT
a most important sale of taffetaa pa
ma checks and mohairs, all ed five
models and at greatly reduced ices.
Here is one: Panama invisiblj Shecks
that is the kind you give ME when /
ask for money for dresses-are going to
be worn extensively this season. l must
go downtown to-day and see what they
have in the window. must know what
is being worn, even though l cannot wear
it,
Now, I'll just clip these items out so
that III know just where to go without
losing any valuable time. 1t will be all
right, dear, for if I read these things to
you there will be no necessity of your
reading them again.
"Ob, just think! Marks G. Downs also
have a special sale Of imported mohairs.
and they have models made up from
each pattern. SO as to show what they
really are. Would you mind pouring me
another cup of coffee? And butter a roll
for me, that's a good boy.
Linen suitings-it's a little early. but
all | can do anyway is look. and I'm de-
termined to see what they have In Irish
poplins, as | haven't a single spring suit
TO my back, and even though il is Febru-
airy, July is coming. and when you get

Atlantic City, then you would be shamed
to death If ] didn't have even the sim
plest and neatest little gowns, especial
ly as they are going to be worn by every
one this year. and the prices are lower
now than they will be later, and the skirt
made up in a very plain fashion, with
"a box plsits, and the waist with a slight
modification of the leg-'o-mutton sleeve.
only with the pun at the elbow instead
Of at the wrist. full in the front, and
either an embroidered stole effect or else
trimmed with lace. will delight you.
How pleased | am that you take such
an interest in my clothes and advise me
what to get!
"Ill Just tear this page out so l can go
over 1t more carefully. There isn't any
thing on the other side, excepting some
old editorials.
and they have a special sale Of gro
ceries. with a demonstration of the FIVE
second fshball. Then | don't want to
forget to go and see what they have in
the way of Cluny laces and Venise band
ings, as you think either Of them woul3
be prettier than embroidery, OF else, [
might use an applique design.
why isn't this dreadful? Here Is an
old man. 80 years of age. who was,fo,-
lowed by another man who demanded
his watch and turned on him and struck
him down with a heavy, gold-headed
walking stick. which broke in three
pieces. and held him until the police ar
rived.
"They think they have a clew to n OF
the hold-up men. But wasn't II dreadful
to hit him so hard, when he could have
told him plainly, but decidedly, that he
couldn't have the watch!
"If | had my way. l wouldn't let peo~
ple-do you like watermelon with straw
berry ice cream and maraschino cher
ries to preserve the color scheme? It
must be good. I'll just cut out this rec
ipe for It. and this n of how to fix left
over baked beans with truffies and
smoked goose breast. so that when ! get
time can try them. for | know you like
these little dishes.
"And would you mind, darling. II |
just cut out the part containing the So
ciety news? Iknow you won't read II
anyway. and | want 10 see who attended
Mrs. McWhortle-S chmierkase's wedding
to Baron Won Bratwurst. Besides, here
is a complete list of the big pre-Lenten
functions. and I'll just take the account
of the man who killed eight of his wives
by mixing paris green in their creme de
menthe.
"There-why, ~wby-there isn't much
left. is there. dear? But have read H.
all to you, or at least all the important
part, and you can glance over the rest
when you are on the car.
"Good-by. Now. you needn't throw
that paper away and then go and suuan-
der money on another simply because I
cut out a couple of little recipes SO !
could make you something you like.
And, Charlie. dear. don't forget to
bring a loaf of bread from the bakers.
as ! shall be so rushed to-day that I do
not think can find time to get 1t. Good
