1t seems that many Of the mid-win-

the fashions that are to bloom in the
spring, for many of the evening eff

In speaking Of evening dress, we
are reminded of the temptation which
comes sometimes to wear such dress
under the impression that it will look
smarter than the ordinary walking

fatal habit of betraying it's secret UNI
less it be some evening dress of dark
velvet which has by proyidential fore
thought been supplied with two bod

imagine it will not reveal the fact is
to write yourself down amongst the
optimists born to be deceived

that the early spring time will see the

minded that til" young girl may have
the satisfaction of falling back upon
