you will need It. If you are ready,

ballads, on the contrary are now be-
ing much sung oy young girls as parlor
stunts. The ballads Of the British isles
and those of America are warmly be-
loved AMI partly known by many peo-
pie. 1t Is astonishing the pleasure
girl can give who knows these ballads
well and can lead in the singing OF
them. Indeed. girls who sing ballads
often complain that they are not al
lowed TO do their stunts alone. since
every one present insists on joining In
at least the chorus. This Is all right,
and adds 10 the fun, provided the Kirt
has not some little original trick IN con-
nection with the song which she hopes
TO make effective.
Sometimes these ballads are sung by
girls who have still very youthful and
far from strong voices, ard WHO are
not skilled musicians Yet they give the
sorg certain little swing and intOna-
ton which are charming.
Girls are also choosing certain poems

Fashion Notes

One OF the innovations Of the season
is the making Of thin lawn petticoats in
all shades and OF the dressiest variety.
There come the loviiest violet lawn
skirts With 4 very wide and very deep
1ounce around the foot. The fiounce is
worked IN English embroidery very
open in design and very elaborate IN

scalloped and worked in button hole

very far from being light. and IN most
cases II IS more than the price Of a

HINTS FOR THE POPULAR GIRLS

To be sufficiently entertaining 10 make
their friends laugh seems to be one
of the elements of popularity among
young girls. The overthoughtful, seri-
Gus girl is today mostly beloved by a
few close friends, but she is seldom as
general a favorite as the more lively,
funmaking girl. 1t is especially during
the summer that many girls resort 20
what they call doing stunts" in order
TO keep their companions amused and
the entertainment of an evening from
becoming dull.
Before endeavoring to do any stunts
a young girl should first be sure that
she is able TO do them we'll The time
when they were done in an on-haiid,
careless manner is now past. She should.
moreover. choose a line OF stunts that
is in harmony with her personality, and
which. in fact. is likely 10 make her
appear attractive. These stunts should
then be actually studied and practiced
when alone before venturing to do them
before an audience.
Doing character sketches or mimickipg
celebrities of the stage is one OF tile
stunts most favored at present. That
she might initiate bits of Maude Adams
acting one young girl is known to have
seen Peter Pan" some eighteen times.
She then, of course. watched every 1T
tie mannerism. every inJonation Of the
voice, with the greatest care. She was
at length able 10 initiate Maude Adams
with such perfection that one might al
most believe he were watching the
actress when the young girl was doing
her stunt Little snatches OF the songs
in the play were also given. Indeed. this
stunt was one 10 keep a whole room full
OF people entertained for a considerable
time.
Since learning to do this bit OF imita-
ton so well the same girl has accom-
pllshed several others with equal sue
cess. She is particularly happy in imi-
tating the voices and facial expressions
Of others. Invariably. however, she
chooses for imitation, those who are IN
themselves attractive and refined. There
is, besides. in her little performance
nothing which makes her appear as a
stage struck" girl. She does her par
Tor stunt most artistically, yet she
realizes that it is an accomplishment
taken up merely for the amusement of
the moment.
At present she is learning to initiate
one Of the political lights making a
speech At one Of the great public meet

and the next mOrning she was able to clip
most of his speech from the morning

several times that she might re-enfOrcc
her memory concerning mis- gestures and
mennerisms- She even went to an
other city when il was advertised that
he was to give there a notable speech.

have run themselves to earth. Old-time

Polite CourfeSieS.

There are distinct rules in regard to
the etiquette Of bOwing-rules as to
when 20 bow and when not TO bow, and
also as to the manner OF bowling. One
Of the first rules Is that a man must
wait for a woman to recognize him. al
though between friends the act OF bow
ing is almost simultaneous. When re-
turning a bow a man takes of his hat.
and replaces IT quickly. When meeting
or leaving a woman. or when he passes
her on a stairway or IN the corridor Of
theater. or when he offers any small
courtesy N a public conveyance, he
raises his hat. He removes his hat IN
a hotel elevator when d woman enters.
In the elevators Of large business
buildings this rule does not seem to
hold.
A man raises his hat when passing a
friend who is accompanying woman
although she may not be known TO him
When he is with a woman who bows
to an acquaintance he must raise his
hat. When bowling It is not customary
to mention the name of the person one
Is recognizing. When passing formal
acquaintance several times when driv-
ing Il Is not necessary 10 bow more
than once.
When a woman receives some triiing
clvllity from man whom she does not
know she thanks him with a bow and
smile at the moment, and he raises his
hat in acknowledgment: but II she
meets him subsequently, and he never
has been introduced It would be incor-
rect for her to bow to nim. knowing
person by sight does not constitute
dn acquaintance and does not give any
one the right 10 bow.
Bows may be described as friendly or
cordial4 ceremOnious OF defercntial. dis
tant or reluctant according to the man
ner in which we wish 10 greet acQuaint-
ances, but a bow must be polite always.
] No doubt there are some persons who
seem 10 bow cOldly when they have no
intention OF doing so. Near-sighted
persons must have allowances made for
them on this score Others may be alb
! sent-minded, diffident, or awkward; put
, when we meet a friend who bows cor

action shows as that there Is an art in

From fRe Bridge Table

All sorts OF stories are being told OF
