The military collar is used as fin
ish for both coats and gowns.
The one-piece gowns being made
now will be worn later without coats.
Many of the white and light-tinted
suits have collars and cuffs of black
MORE or satin.
Some of the new skirts have five,
seven or nine cores, with panels set
in the side seams.
Linens are either very heavy, al
most like Russian crash, or they are
very thin and fine.
Velvet pekins are once more re-
ceiving attention, the stripes alternat-
ing with the velvet.
If Paris can have its way the whole
tendency in millinery this year will
be toward quaint effects.
Silk fiber laces are much worn in
long-sleeve underbodices with recep-
ton gowns particularly.
Some of the new tweed coats have
the sleeve blocked in a perfectly
plain, quite masculine way.
Fabrics for spring are softer and
glossier than ever before, but are
somewhat firmer of texture.
Coats and skirts are being SOU
tached with fine silk braid of the
same color and lined to match.
Green has been heralded as the
modish color for next season, but the
very latest report says brown.

ATTEND A MEETING.

"Talk about women voting" eX-
claimed a woman high up on the anti
suffragist list, why, all one has to
do to be convinced of their utter un-
fitness Ior self-government is to at
tend a few of their meetings" The
anti-suffrag ist had just come from a
meeting of recently organized char
ity, and now proceeded to relate her
woes. In the first place" she said,
1.-The secretary was late, very late.
Her motor had broken down, think,
or perhaps her dog was i'll. The
meeting appointed a temporary secre-
tary and went on with the reports.
When the secretary arrived the fun
began. Her reading of the minutes
was punctuated by interruptions from
all corners of the room, Why, l never
heard anything about that! of
course they didn't; they all talk while
the business is being transacted. Or,
from the president, You will have to
alter that decided" into "suggested, -
as the former binds US too definitely.
Bewildered, but honest, the secretary
replies: But it was motion,
properly put and seconded and car
ried.' The all-powerful president will
not listen and retorts in an unap-
proachable tone, You must change
the wording as l suggested. That
motion must be taken as merely dis
cussed in an amicable manner. In
fact, you may eliminate that clause
entirely from your report-draw a
line of red ink across it slantingly,'

DIRECTOIRE WALK.

The directoire walk is as exacting
and difficult as the figure. The only
way it is to be obtained is by prac-
ticing in skirts that are not only mar
row, but rest upon the floor, unstif-
fened for several inches in front and
on the Side, while the back trails on
the ground
In walking her steps must be meas
ured, void of all stride This tempo
can only be gained by counting and
walking slowly in the beginning until
one fairly glides. The arms must
hang loosely at the sides, or at least
curve themselves, but never break
into swing, not even in walking.
The head is raised high and bent for
ward slightly to avoid any suggestion
of being naughty. The directoire girl
seats herself and gets out of a chair
with splendid ease; these graceful
movements are gained by having per-
feet control of her hips. She is never

A LITTLE KNOWLEDGE
Of Painting Requirements Will Save
: Much EXPENSE.

When one sees the surface or a
house or other building scaling, or
peeling, or spotted or blistered, or
showing other symptoms of paint
disease" it is evident that poor
painter has been on the job, or that
poor paint was used-or possibly that
a good painter has been dominated by
a property-owner who knew nothing
about paint.
It is an easy matter to be Informed
on paint and painting. A complete
painting guide, including book of
color schemes, either for exterior or
interior-specificat fer all kinds
of painting,-anda an instrument for
detecting adulteration in paint ma

Then, every HORSEPOWER should

known reliable brands in buying his
materials. Pure white lead is espe
cially important, or the paint will
not prove satisfactory. The famous
Dutch Boy Painter" trademark of
National Lead Company, the largest
makers of pure white lead, is an alb
solute guarantee of the purity and
quality of the white lead sold under
it. That trademark is safeguard
against paint trouble.

How Tommy Found 1t,

George AIDE, at a dinner at the
Ritz, in London, said of luck:
Nobody is so dependent on luck
as the playwright. When he pros
pers he considers luck a kindly god
dess, but when his work fails then
luck seems to him spirit perversely
cruel and mean.
He regards luck then as Tom
Jackson's wife, of Lafayette, does.
Tom Jackson said one morning at
breakfast
Hang it all! While l was weed
ing | dropped my Imperial Order OF
the Roosters pin on the lawn, and
I've been looking Tor it now over half
an hour. It's gone for good l sup
pose
That night when Jackson sat
down to dinner there was his pin be
side his plate.
Bully for you!' said he. Where
did you find it, Martha?'

afternoon, said Mrs. Jackson quiet

White violets are to be more popu-

Linens have improved vastly in

GREATLY CHANGED TIMES.


An old Newporter recently an
nounced that to her times had great
ly changed, and that the newer appll-
cants at this gate to society were
largely the cause. 1T is not the
money they spend" she protested,
"for we all do that; but it's the way
they behave; it's the barriers of con-
ventionality that they f1atten and roll
on in their padded coats of ignorance,
and not even long splinters from
these barriers can pierce their intelll-
gence or make them aware that bar
riers were meant to be. The young
est girls nowadays gamble for high
stakes, and boast of their losses.
They also smoke in public, and dis
cuss the raising of dogs or horses un-
blushingly What is still worse, they
are permitted by their mothers to
drive alone with men to dances at far
off points, returning home with the
same, or some other man friend,
alone, in the morning hours. What
the reputation of these escorts may
be never seems to be taken into con-
sideration, so keen is the climber
that her daughter shall have atten-
lions from men of the world. This
kind of thing makes the we'll brought
up girls chafe under the restraint i'm
posed by generations of knowledge OF
proper manners, and they complain
that the other girl in the limelight
of unconventionality has by far the
best time and is really just as nice
as they are, for, mamma, they
plead, she never does or says any
thing out of the way when with us,
so we have no reason for not having
her at our parties, and we can't help
she gets there!' Later they wish to
do likewise, as to escort, this time
the plea being that they have known
Tom or Dick all their lives The
oldtimers, however" continued the
Newport leader, stand pat on their
original rulings for their offspring,
and the chances are that the climber
and her daughter will have the cold
shoulder should they try to break in
another year. New York Tribune.

4 Prayer.

Our Heavenly Father and ~truest
Friend, who hast so loved and saved
us, the thought Of Whom Is sweet and
always growing sweeter, come and
dwell in our hearts; then Thou wilt
keep watch on our lips, our deeds,
and we shall not need to be anxious
either for our souls or our bodies.
Give us charity, sweetest of all gifts,
which knows no enemy. Give us in
our hearts pure love, born of Thy love
to us, that we may love others as
Thou lowest. Loving Father of Jesus
Christ, from Whom floweth all love,
let our hearts, frozen in sin, cold to
Thee and cold to others, be warmed
by this divine fire. So help and bless
us through Christ, Thy Son.

"You look incredulous, but I as
sure you this is gospel truth. I heard
it with these ears not an hour ago.
But these high handed rulings of the
president may be balanced by the
secretary's private power of elimina-
ton. l have known secretary to cut
out anything that did not suit her,
particularly if it related to work done
by herself. If the chairman and
members of the committee happened
to be forgetful she escaped unscathed
and was consequently emboldened to
repeat her curtailment. These things
have all come under my personal OBJ
servation, and many more of the
same kind, and have just about
brought me to the point of refusing
to join any society that hasn't a man
at the helm. New York Tribune.

Only One Fool Emperor.

An American just returned from

from Berlin. Two Americans were
walking in the Friedrichstrasse, when

said. in a rather loud tone of voice,

had hardly been spoken when man
who had overheard the remark step
ned M to the couple and said: "You
are under arrest-you slandered the
Emperor. mot at ALL said the
