made a careful examination, II want
you to tell me the truth. Don't-please
don't-keep anything back"
He shook his head and replied:
DO you fully realize what you are
asking me to do? Think again"
Yes, yes" she insisted, Il want to
know the truth. Don't keep anything
from me- Tell me the worst
1T is very bad. I'm afraid you will
never forgive me after I've spoken out.
NO, no, no, Don't think that I un-
CCrstand how you feel Come, 1 must
know. You must not keep me in sus-
pense. doctor. You are cruel
We'll. if you insist upon knowing the
worst, it is my opinion that a regular
course OF dishwashing, bedmaking. and
sweeping is the only thing that will
save you from weighing 100 pounds in
S &c of five years"
Realizing that her worst fears had
been as nauSht compared with the ter
rible truth, the unfortunate woman fell
back among her pillows and gave up
all hope.-Chicago Record-Herald.

med with green leather.
The other two styles of women who
should dress for the weather are the
outing woman. who snends all her time
In the open and whose silk rubber suit
begins to wear out soonest The outing
woman needs a handsome serge dress
trimmed with leather for her many trips
aheld And the third woman who needs
outing garments is the business woman
ABOUT the business woman and her
dress there cannot be too much said In
IaVor OF suitable dress. There is a very
Wel-to-oo business woman N New York
VINO wears on cloudy days a suit Of
one of those brilliant suitings, just
suitable for a bad day. II always wear
pright red or glorious green on dull
days" she says
Her dull day suit consists of a box
plated red and black plaid skirt. With
this she wears a red waist with black
silk stock and a black belt. Her hat is Il
tancy black straw--an all-the year-roun. !,
hat-With smart red quilts at the side.
Her gloves are red leather The coat
with this suit is a three-Quarter black
serge. with brilliant red and black collar
and cuffs.
Another business woman has adopted
the shorter skirt now being worn. She
wears very heavy leather shoes which
require no rubbers. The soles are the
heaviest that can be made With these
she wears long black and white check
leggfngs that reach to the calves Of her
legs. Her coat is a black and white
checked tweed which comes just below
the tops Of her boots il Is made tight
fitting in the belt iine and very full in
the skirt. 1t is buttoned down the front
with smoked pearl buttons. Underneath
she wears q lightweight taffeta shirt

lovely things for piazza and croque.

Miss Gladys Vanderbilt the wealthiest
debutant of the season. is preparing her

Coats for Steamer and Rail.

One should have a deck coat which
can be worn on steamer or by rail. This
should be of plain suiting and should be
cut long and loose, though by no means
baggy. II should have many pockets
inside and out, and should be finished
with a turnover collar, which can be
stood upright.
In addition to these coats. woman
should have a silk rubber or a rubber
lied tageta suit warranted TO with
stand the rain. This can be IN a pretty
shade Of deep red, untrimmed save for
bands Of the same and for some fancy
stitching. Waterproof hats come of the
same material, and are so pretty that
cne does not think Of them as being
made of rubber.
Nearly all the pretty shapes now come
in silk rubber, and one can get the Ma
poleon hats; one can get the trl-corner,
the Marquise and even the picture hats

The fishing suit Is matter OF choice
But i is certainly true that pretty

belted coat. Is very smart. II can De

Selecting Summer Trousseaus.

''If I were selecting summer gowns, ;"
said a dressmaker who has furnished
summer trousseaus for the women of
the 400 for many seasons. "I would go
In for fresh effects rather than expen-
sive ones. A man never knows what a
dress is made Of, though he knows per-
fectly well If a woman looks nice Why
not get the cheaper goods and make
them up well. instead Of wasting money
on costly stuffs?

look neat
