A Topeka woman, noticing the De- |
oember number of a fashion maya |
zine. glanced through it and observed |
decided change in the cut of the
sleeves to be worn during the next |
season. She carried it over to her |
,.eighbor, and together they rejoiced |
that the new style would allow them to |
work over some garments that they
lad hitherto feared would have to be |
given to the Provident association. |
" GU know that last years green dress
of mine,' one of them began enthusi- |
astically, those sleeves can be turned
Upside down, and that will make the
fullness just where it ought to be-
YES" the other one answered, 81 had
some goods left over that wasn't used
when my dress was made, and the
piece is just the right size to bring my
sleeves up to date After a little
more of this kind of self congratuia-
non, one of the women closed the
Fook to look at the picture on the
cover. Suddenly her jaw dropped, her
eyes rolled up, and her face took on a
ghost-gazing Macbeth expression. She
had noticed for the first time that the
magazine was dated December, 1907.
