THINGS A WOMAN CAN DO,

From the washington Times.
There are three things that every
woman might do to help in beautifyins
the world and making life better worth
hving. t~.
One OF these is to make her person as
beautiful as she can by observing the
laws of health and preserving that
tranquil. trustful state OF mind which
rs reflected I'm the face and manner,
Another is to learn to beautify her
dress This does not mean to increase
its complexity or it's adherence to the
changes OF fashion; but rather to study
and experiment until she finds out what
forIls, colors and styles are most be-
ccming to her, then adopt these, In
lhairdressing and garments. @
The third thing Is to beautify the
place wherein she lives, whether IL ID
one room or spacious home. Weed
our the wrong things; rearrange the
bOth7rs and force your dwelling place to
express In same way your own feelings
iafter what is beautiful and true.
No matter how circumscribed her life,
these three steps toward the betterment
OK the world are within every womans
reach. t
She may not be able to take part in
great civic movements. The circle OF
her influence may be a small one.
Yet If there is in her an IDEAL a
beauty which. finds it's expression In
the steadfast improvement of her home
her health and her dress. she Is doina
cha biz get kind OF artistic work.
All reforms and all progress begin
with and work out through the indi!
vfcual.

The COLOR FoR AuTuMN.

! The color for autumn has been de-
clared. 1t Is green-not grass or en-
erald or reseda or olive, but dark. rich
green. In combination brown and green
will be much seen. The brown men
stoned will be more of deep red than
lanything else, however, for 1t is the
shade we see so much In Van Dyck's
paintings. No bright tone, unless 1t be
khaki, will be a la mode. From all In
in years. Black will be very much
worn, and stripes and checks large and
small, trimmed with folds and pipings
Of plaid, will be in vogue.
The stripes are so dark that at q
glance one can not distinguish the
colors employed. 1t is a commingling
Of tones that appear to run into each
other. The bias will be seen, 80 1t is
announced, but certainly after autumn
months have passed none OF the winter
gowns will employ the bias.

Don'ts for CHICAGO Women.

From Chicago as Seen by Herself
In the May McClure's:
IT'S got so now, you have to watch
for daylight burglars just as much as
the night kind" said Captain Richard
Lewis, who was in charge OF the Sheri-
dan park patrol.
"They don't work alone or In pairs,
necessarily; they are getting so strong
they work in threes and fours and
bring a wagon. Sometimes the people
in the surrounding fats see four. husky
men moving out the furniture of the
family on the ground floor and stacking
1t in wagon in an alley. The next
day they are surprised to hear that the
movers were burglars"
Captain Lewis gave out the follow
ing series of "Don'ts for Defenseless
Women"
Don't let mail accumulate In vesti-
bule mail boxes. Have the janitor re-
move 1t when you are away, or. 1t will
serve as a notice to fiat workers that
you are out and the coast is clear.
Don't leave directions to your grocer
on the back door. This Is another tip
to the burglar that you are out.
Don't open the door to any one after
dark without knowing who 1t is. Call
through the tube or ask behind the
locked door. 20. ~. -
Don't trust a stranger because he Is
well dressed. The immaculate thief Is
dangerous; the ragged one generally is
harmless.
Don't trust the locks. Most apart
ment locks are toys; a burglar can
Jimmy them in half minute without
noise. Get special bolts. -. #.
Don't walk close to a building after
dark; give an alley good margin"

BILLS.


| Did you ever notice that bills are
always larger than you had expected
them to be? This popularity Is no
fault OF the merchant, but arises from
miscalculation induced by the slipshod
and dangerous habit of running up ac-
counts. Every retailer would rather
rather have you run an account with
him than pay as you go. for he knows
that by the former method you will
spend far more money than by the lat
ter, where you feel every dollar
: Another peculiar trait common to all
bills is their habit of arriving just at
the most inconvenient time for paying
them. II you pay cash, you simply
cannot buy unless you have the money.
Are not these sufficient arguments
against the pernicious system Of
credit, which has been the cause Of
more extravaganza, cheating and des-
titution than anything else in the his
tory of the world except drink?
J Without making a crusade against
the custom, consider a few OF its ef-
fleets, and then ask yourself whether
you will ever again buy a single arti-
cle unless you can Immediately after
ward pay for 1t. After careful re-
view OF the subject, will wager that
the answer will be, No!

Early in the spring a woman's first
thought Is for a lightweight cloth suit.
Later on silks claim her attention, and
she hesitates between the good points
of tussore, pongee and taffeta.
This settled, it Is time to consider
tailored linens.
Like most Of the other fabrics, linens
and piques are made up in two ways-.-
either severely tailored or relieved by
insertions and appliques of heavy lace
or Japanese embroidery. A suit or two
OF tub materials are fairly indispens-
able additions to the summer ward
robe. They look and are cool, whether
one has a summer silk or not, and
coming as they do in light pinks and
blues, tans and lavenders, as well as
white, they are most attractive.
The tailored linen Is made on exact
ly the same lines as the tailored cloths
and silks, and when a serviceable color
is selected they last almost as long as
the others without a visit to the laun-
dry.
Tub suitings are, of course. made
with walking length skirts. The coats
are usually shorter than they were last
season and our old friend the Eton
plays prominent part.
