what do You think would be nice9


For days Priscilla tossed among
these questions. Her decision was {.
triumph. She must have something
simple because of Jane; yet 1t must
be elegant because of Lucy. 1t could
not be too conspicuously becoming
because of the girls who did not
catch Ostrander; yet 1t must look
distinctly we'll because of the strang
ers who would be there. Pink was
given over because of the decora
tions, but cream and light green had
been admired on her before.
Then Priscilla began collecting
samples-went into the business, as
It we're. There were fifty-three shades
and textures in cream and light tan.
The variations of the light green
were beyond belief. Priscilla lost
some sleep over samples, but finally
struggled to choice between one OF
the green's and one of the tans. These
two put up a brave fight. In the
morning she got up firm, not to b.
shaken. She would take the green.
At breakfast Mrs. Battles though
the tan perhaps a shade more be-
coming. Very well, she would have
the tan. In the middle of the morn
Ing some one else wondered how sho
could think of anything but the
green. Priscilla wondered, too. ~
luncheon tan was again In the az
cendant. Her final order went: 81
have decided on the gr-no, tan. Let
me see them both once more,
please"
Tan finally got 1t, after the green
had been measured off and cut.
If Priscilla lost some sleep oyer
samples she lost considerably moro
over the making. To be simple, to b.
elegant, to be not too becoming yet
very becoming-there was the prob
lem. over the sleeves alone Priscilla
lay awake one whole night. BY the
time the trimmings we're bought the
doctor said that only rest and quiet
would ward off serious nervous ill.,
ness. The last days before the party

mittent gettings up to be fitted
Complete, the gown had cost $50,
doctors not included, also days AMI
nights OF the strenuous life.
She wore 1t to the reception. Il
was. OF course, commented upon.
Priscilla herself overheard the fol-
lowing comments.
She certainly never ought to
wear tan. It is horribly unbecom-
Ing"
And It looked so dead in all that
orange. Why did mt she wear some
thing to harmonic with the decora-
tions?"
Did you ever see such fimsy.
cheap looking goods?"
"Still, my dear, that is the latest
thing / priced it yesterday 81 a
yard"
You don't say so. l wonder
what Jane Ostrander thinks Of such
extravaganza"
II call It execrable taste myself,
