perhaps l may some Jay.
You cannot think how different
They make things look, you know,
All so bright and rosy, everywhere you
go.
/ guess that is the reason,
That Grandma does not scold,
She must see only good things,
Looking through those rims of gold.
She smiles so kindly at me
When I am tired with play;
And always has some story
Or something nice to say.
I wish every one would wear them,
How nice it all would be;
Each one would be gOod-natured
And no one cross, you see,
It would not be so hard,
To be always good and kind
For every one would like me,
And every one be kind.
Marie Merriam.

ZIP brims fight steadily to retain
~ their hold upon feminine favor,
and it will be some months before the
battle between the downward and up
ward effect will be definitely decided.
One thing, however, is certain. Wide
brims are bound to prevail for all
headgear to be worn with elaborate
gowns, and a marked feature of their
trimmings is the tendency to use light
flowers and ribbons on dark hats and
vice versa, as is the case of black
felt hat trimmed with rose ribbon and
roses to be worn with a rose crepe
gown, and with a white felt hat trim
med with black plumes and velvet
Flowers will be seen on many of the
hats made of heavy materials, usually
matching in tint the other trimmings
The milliner's bow has of late become
wonderful and eccentric production
At times it is a myriad of short loops
and ends, on other occasions it lies
stiffly and fatty like a birds wing
against the crown, and, again, plait'
ed in clusters, it forms bulky loops, ac.
cented by a handsome buckle.
III HE late Julia Magruder, as her
l. brilliant books show, detested the
married flirt," said a Washington wo-
man. 81 once heard her, at the sea.
shore, rebuke a married flirt rather
neatly.
"The woman, young and pretty, was
always surrounded by a throng Of
adorers-foot ball and golf and tennis
champions from the leading colleges
very young, but very handsome, very
charming lads.
Late one night, on Miss Magruder's
return from a dinner, she found the
young woman and young man seated
in the hall of the hotel alone.
1T was very late. Every one else
had gone to bed. The young woman
was embarrassed. But she looked uI
and laughed nervously, and then, fol
something to say, she extended heI
handkerchief and murmured
See, l have a knot in my hand
kerchief, and I can't remember what
it was put there for
Perhaps, said Miss Magruder
smiling gravely, perhaps it was put
there to remind you that you are mar
ried.'"
DLUB will certainly be in high favor
ID this fall and winter.
Navy and royal blue are looked upor
as fashionleaders.
Copenhagen blue and Natter blue
or old blue, are both highstyle shades
The Copenhagen blue is the delft
blue
The Natter shade is the blue so of
ten found in old tapestries-the shade
which resembles a bachelor-buttor
blossom, but much softer.
Brown will also be a favorite-rus
set, Havana and leather shades.
The coppery browns and the deeI
mahogany tones will be exceedingl!
modish.
The silver and dark mouse gray will
be especially fashionable.
In green the preference seems to b.
given to forest green, which is a beau
tiful leaf tint, not so yellow as div
and a great deal more generally be
coming, The bronze greens are ais,
good.
The Bordeaux reds and a beautiful
deep American Beauty shade will b.
worn.
The general tendency, however
toward darker shades.
The fabrics show indeterminate eff
fects and beautiful minglings of soft
dull shades.
Black will be a conspicuous note il
both trimmings and fabrics.
