In checks, as well as in mixtures and
plain fabrics, there is TO be the red
ingote suit which is also a three-piece
suit.
This is a triumph in ready-mades.
Heretofore the redingote was only TO
be had TO order. Now it is coming in
all ready TO walk out in. All gray is to
be good. Likewise grayish blues and
grayish green's. And navy blue, that is
always in favor.
This redlngote suit is to be an edition
de luxe. 1t is to be three-piece suit.
In addition to the skirt and the long,
trim coat, there will be lovely under
blouse. Upon this little third piece a
wealth of ideas will be lavished. In
some instances 1t will be Of exactly the
same shade as the suit, in taffeta peau
de cygne Louisine. or even moussellne.
Sometimes it will be of lace.
Shaded chiffon will form one har-
mony in violet which is TO go with a
suit of eggplant purple.
Such under pieces mean much.
They are made TO harmonlze with the
suit. II is often impossible for wom-
an to find the exact shades for this
third piece. Then she must find all
the details and see that they are made
TO suit her. With the ready-made
three-piece suit all this is saved

Are women neater than men? was n
question recently asked by a cynical
masculine who is n stern critic as TO
all that regards woman's getup. This
was the reply: "Women are endowed
with strange vagaries, and while ex-
tremely fastidious in many ways, are
neglectful in others.
Even the SWEETEST society girl is not
as particular as to the freshness of her
collar and cuffs as the plain. everyday
man of business; to change his linen at
least once a day Is n sort of religion
with most men. With women it is diff
ferent; they will inspect their collars
and cuffs after hard days wear and
decide that they will do, not recogniz-
ing the fact that If any doubt exists on
the matter they should be consigned to
the laundry without demur.

One Girl's Independence.

A member of Vassars graduation
class. the daughter of Chicago cap
italist, is noted for her generosity and
prodigal liberaity. A short time ago,
her father. who is self.mnde. began to
fear that his daughter did not appre-
clate the value of money. She promptly
wrote demanding that her allowance be
stopped and set to work more as n
joke than for any other reason to see
Just how much she could do for her
self She had spent several years in
Europe when a child. and spoke French
and German with such ease that she
always elected n course in one or the
other that might prove rebate on
study expended in other directions.
Consequently she secured several
patrons in the city whom she visited
weekly TO converse amiably and in
structively with her children in which
ever language they chose.
At home she had an excellent
French maid, whose operations she had
often watched with interest. She put
up sign announcing: shampoo at
twenty five cents, manlcuring at fifteen
cents; latest and most approved meth

money" She opened n boot-blacking

Weekly her laundry was franSed home
that her dainty garments might not be
ruined in the college laundry. This
suggested yet another industry. She
became n laundress of tlrnovers and
fine handkerchiefs. The ten-cent store
furnished the outfit at n price that
would have delighted the Salvation
Army. and she made enough out of it
to pay her bill at the grocery store

At the end of the month she sent her
father an account of her career, which
so pleased that gentleman-he had just
won a victory over his board Of direc-
tors-that he came on and took her
and her friends to New York City,
where the time Of their lives was theirs
for the asking. His alarms We're so
successfully quleted that he begged
her to give up business for the pres

A Perplexing Problem.

One of the most perpleXing problems
with which the order-loving mother
has to contend is to decide where TO
put the chlldrens toys. If placed in
the nursery closet they keep the floor
in an unslghtly litter, and the dust
gathers quickly under them.
One Of the most convenient devices is
box couch seven feet in length, three
feet wide and three feet deep. To this
is hinged top. The box is covered
with deep red brocade, and on the lid
is fitted and securely fastened hair
mattress, also covered with brocade.
Into this thoroughly ornamental piece
Of furniture the toys may be stored
every night, 1t being the children's
duty to pick off everything from the
floor and put 1t away in a neat and
orderly manner.
They become accustomed TO this task
and perform it with perfect cheerful
ness and with delightfully."- pleasant
conviction that they are helping

Pretty Trunk Tray Covers.

Trunk tray covers are among the
very incest trl6es to make for yourself
and for your friends,
They are made of china silk or siikO-
line double with n layer OF cotton
batting between. thickly powdered
with sachet. The edges are bound
with wash ribbon TO match in color and
If wished the whole surface is quilted
or tufted.
One for each tray is the best way to
arrange including the hat division and
the two or more trays for miscellaneous
articles. The new trunks are so adj
mirably made with skill and comfort
that half a dozen compartments are not
too many to arrange for.
When each tray is packed the cover
Is laid over it and strapped down. 1t
keeps a tight hand on the articles and
garments below and makes the whole
trunk with everything in it smell like
an old-fashioned garden.
Then. too, it looks so neat and at
tractive when the lid is lifted and the
unpacking begins. That tossed and
tumbled appearance is avoided,

The stapl. Bargain.

The sensible woman uses her reason
on these occasions. She knows that Ii
is folly to buy a gown which is already
little out Of style. Unless bargain
can be worn Mt least part of next
season, it is no bargain at all. One
must do a little looking forward. Is
the reign of the pleated skirt beginning
to fail? VIII the popular broderle
Anglaise be worn next year? Is the
half-sleeve fieeting fashion? If so,
it is no economy TO buy them Mt this
late day. On the other hand, linen is a
staple material, and unless the gown
is in essentially style Of the moment
it can be altered TO fit next years re-
qulrements, even If II cannot be worn
exactly as it Is.
