From Paris comes a fashion note that

has not yet made her Curtsey TO society

summer AT first sight it is TO laugh
for what school girl with a fine suit OF
hair can be expected 10 sacrifice it 70
within OF fashion, no matter wat she
may do when she's Older2 But the mys-
terious power that sets the styles has
issued the steTnest of stern DEGREES that
every belle below the dcbutaute age who
wishes TO be correct must have Lsr hair
cut 20 the uape Of her neck IN the back
and 10 a line q little above her brOWs in
the front, and that il must be innocent
of waves, CuTls. CrimpS, friZZes. DlaiLs

WHEN TO WED

Marry when the year is new.
Always loving, kind. and true;
When February birds do mate,
You may wed, nor dread your fate;
If you wed when March winds blow
Joy and sorrow both yOu'u know.
Marry in April when you can,
Joy for maiden and for man.
Marry in the month Of May,
You win surely rue the day.
Marry when June roses blow,
over land and sea you'll go.
They who IN July do wed
Must labor always for their bread.
Whoever wed in August be
Many changes are sure TO see.
Marry in September's shine
Your living will be rich and fine.
If in October you do marry
Love Will come, but riches tarry.
If you wed IN bleak November
Only JOY viii come, remember.
When Defenders SHOWS fall fast
Marry and true love viii last.

Riding AStzide

1T Is the general opinion among the
physicians with whom 1 associate, %
writes a correspondent. that the fash
ion OF women riding astride has not had
its origin in fad so much as It has in
the advice OF physicians of our modern
type.
The fact that a peTso riding estride
can have more freedom from jar and
jolt than one riding a side saddle should
be point in favor OF the astride meth
cd, aside from the fact of 1t being safer
and easier for the rider.
THE fact that Il might be considered
immOdest by those who are not familiar
with the astride method OF riding is no
reason why il should be condemned.
The main reason why 1t is becoming
more popular is because physicians i'm
general see its good points over the old
method and are thus advising IT,"

Game Of BdrbdrcC

There used 10 be a game played
among the boys called 'Barbaree. " said
an old WashingtonIan. All oId-timers
remember It. The boys would start
from a given point and then scatter.
They found themselves or were located
by the repeated call Of the name. 1t
has been years since we played that
game, but We would like tonight 90
raise the call 'Rarbaree" over the face
OF this earth and 10 locate all who used
10 play the game. The years have
gone hard with some OF US, and many
are no longer here, but il would be
interesting to know from what walks
and conditions Of life would come the
response II we should suddenly call out
'Barbaree' ia a voice that all above the
earth could hear"

Likes the Cap, After
Tolerating it in Other
Plays.

Eleanor Robson may boast Of one Of
the most remarkable costume bills In
the records Of American actresses. stage
clothes are the envy of women patrons
OF the theater and there are few play
ers who do not yearn to play characters
IN which expensive gowns are required
It means much to the feminine heart
TO look well and even more TO those of
the stage. Miss Robson, peculiarly
enough, has gone through all the years
of her stellar career In gowns which
cost almost nothing, and for hve plays
she has spent only Sl5L50 for clothes,
an amount usually expended by women
stars for one gown alOne-and that a
cheap one.
Miss Robson takes keen delight in
pointing to her modiste's bill. while other
actresses are spending thousands Of dol
lars on their costumes, but whether
through her quaint personality or a
peculiar fate which governs her stage
destiny Miss RObsOn's lines have been
cast in characters calling for simplicity
or illustration in dress as well as IN
acting.
Another. peculiar incident OF Miss Rob
sons career is that in nearly every place
she has played since 1903 she has been
called upon 70 wear a cap OF some sort
The first was as the fascinating little
slavey IN Merely Mary Ann" Then fol-
lowed a portrayal of Kate Hardcastle
In she Stops TO Conquer when she
wore a cap as the barmaid in an Eng Ish
tavern. Again the cap was a necessary
part Of her costume as Nurse MarJery''
and once more as the chambermaid in
Susan in Search Of a Husband"
Then came ''SalOmy Jane" with her
charming little cap and Miss Robson has
just come to the realization tnaI IN the
new Rostand play, for which she IS
destined. 1.-THE Lady OF Dreams a cap
cOnfrOnts her, but she says she has
come TO like them now and is content
TO go on playing cap" roles.
