there is certain area of about three

where the density of population is at
the rate of 100000 to the square mile,
yet the city of Paris shows a far
greater average density of population
than New York, the figures for Paris
being $4,000 a square mile and for
New York city proper 10000 square

or in the glare of big ballroom with

modelling of cheeks and nostrils and
earlobes and whitening of arms, that

ness Of her environment and the bril-
liancy of the lighting. Recently it has

NEArnEss GREAT TIME SAVER.
Also Considerably Lessons Wear and
Tear on the Nerves.

1t is big boon to be born orderly.
1t means such saving in wear and
tear on ones nerves.
There are some people who have the
desire for neatness, but lack in its
execution. They can put to rights, but
not keep it up.
1t is easier to be born sloven than
one with wish for orderliness allied
to the habit of misplacing.
That place for everything rule is
good one-if you don't forget the
place.
The woman who can find her belong
ings even in the dark is the one to tie
to-provided she doesn't achieve her
neatness by nagging and everlasting
primpiness.
That some girls bureau drawers
have a cyclone-struck look may not
argue lack of orderliness so much as
an overpressure of affairs. 1t is not
easy when every minute counts to put
things back In the exact spot where
they should go.
AS the bump OF order is the greatest
time saver known, it is well, however,
for the busy girl to make strenuous
efforts to acquire it. 1t may take an
extra minute to put things where they
belong. but time is often reckoned by
hours when 1t comes to hunting them
where they don't belong.
Orderliness is Z good business asset:
the girl who can put her fingers on
notebook at an instant's notice, who is
not on perpetual hunt for pencil,
eraser and other daily necessities, who
has learned to classify her papers for
easy finding, rarely makes failure of
her career.

TO WEAR UNDER SHEATH SKIRT.
SILK knIckerbockers Appropriate with
the New Costume.

The shops have already brought out
all kinds of silk knickerbockers for
the new sheath skirt Some are lined
with albatross, some are of taffeta
unlined; others are of old brocades
lined with china silk.
They are perfectly fitted at hips
and waist line and are held around the
knee with an elastic band. They
haven't much material IN them, or
they would make bad line under the
tight skirt.
While the majority never use them
for this purpose, they promise to be
quite popular for all manner of out
door wear under short cloth skirts.
For camp and country, for ocean
and mountain, those of china silk worn
under short tweed skirt are i'm
mensely superior to petticoat. They
give freedom, do not get in the way
and are quite cool and light.
Natural colored pongee is an excel
lent substitute for china silk for knick-
erbockers to be worn in this way. and
some women are having them made
of pongee colored linen which go to
the tub, to come home fresh and
starched, to take the place of pet
ticoats.
When these are worn for outings
It is not necessary to wear any other
pieces of underwear except the un-
dershirt under the corset, and the
corset cover under the shirtwaist.
