is an exceptionally good one, is made
of three pieces of ribbon drawn through
three buckles. 1t gives the medium high
bust and also the tapering waist. The
sleeves need not be made quite SO full,
ms there is noticed a tendency to lessen
the size of this important part of the
dress. 1t is not safe, however, to affirm
that the tendency will harden into
popular fashion.

The skirt was blue-gray chip with .
very tall bandeau at the back fitting it

middle point in front, just over the fore
head. and two gray-blue wings stretched
out either side from it. It was ultra,

large fiat handbag Of light gray alN-

gloves met the elbow sleeves.
What do you think OF five piece suit?
We used to have the coat and skirt of
one color; then came the coat, skirt and
silk waist. of same color; the so-called
three-piece suit. The five-piece suit
sounds extravagant, but in a way it is
economical, gives number of changes
with the single skirt; it consists of skirt.

wrap for warm weather, a lClero for
still warmer. OF course, for this cos
tune, with it's many possibilities, one
must choose the most becoming of the
less conspicuous colors; novelty worn
so often would grow very tiresome We
recommend this for anyone that II to

 'LHnps of love and lots of kisses to my little sugar plum. from her de- voted John Norton"
 The little sugar plum" never got those kisses. "Popsy-wopsy" never read sage. The understudy never got her chance. She did not even attend the rehearsal called specially on her account. When she recovered consciousness she found her unwelcome visitor gone. She felt so upset that she sent an excuse to the theater. and did not even sing in the chorus that night Meantime when John Morton reached the theater for the o'clock rehearsal he found his wife there ready to take her part. She sang and acted with more briliiancy and abandon than ever.
 The stage managers note to his wife's understudy had averted a trag- edy which would have shocked half the world.
 The unhappy heroine of this true story is still a prima donna. She is the pet of the public. courted, fiattered and feted as few stars of the theatrical Armament ever have been. But she is a truly miserable woman.
