Any woman who has her way to
make in the world, whether in social
or business circles, must recognize that
dress is one of her chief assets, says
Mrs. SimcoX in the Delineator The
efficiency of a saleswoman, a stenog-
rapher, a teacher-in fact, of any
woman who works-is judged by her
dress Shabbiness is almost always
taken as a sign of ill-success, and it Is
popular If somewhat fallacious theory
that real merit and ability always sue
ceed.
Carelessness is quite as blighting to
ones prospects as shabbiness. 1t may
not be altogether Just or fair, but it is
true that wherever you go, your social
position, your income, success or
failure your ability and character, are
appraised by the clothes you wear. If L
were starting in business don't care
in what capacity-and had only very
little money to invest, | would put II
into clothes Clothes that were suit
able. attractive and we'll made. 1t is
what financiers call a good risk
investment that is almost certain to
turn out well.
I don't for a moment advocate eX-
traVagance in dress except for women
of large means. With them extraVa-
gance is more than eXcusable-it is
iustifable IT keeps money in circula-
tion that would otherwise be idle. 1t
gives legitimate employment, which is
the wisest and most beneficent form OF
charity, to women who need work.
But for women in moderate circum-
stances a parsimonious attitude toward
dress is a false and often fatal econ
omy. If you want to success in any
thing, look successful, able, competent
otherwise you can never inspire con-
fidence in others, and to look success
full, prosperous, assured, you must be
we'll dressed.

ONE woMAN's SUCCESS

For creative ability marked by pluck
plus determination in working her way
from the ranks of employees to the head
of business, no case is more charac-
teristic than that of Miss Florence F.
Bate of New York city. Starting as a
librarian in a small middle west town
she became general agent in a New
York publishing house, and then began
her Independent course in business by
establishing a literary agency that is
almost unique. In partnership with
Mrs. Christine Terhune Herrick, the
writer, she furnishes lecturers, mu-
sicians and entertainers in chamber re-
citals for women's clubs and receptions
in which women are the organizers. AS
to her progress through a series of
economic experiments in education and
entertainment. Miss Bate assumes for
herself no great credit, although hint
as to her ambition and fulfillment may
be found in' her comment as to her
present work. "I am convinced" she
says, that a woman is better fitted for
arranging such entertainments than is
a man, partly because of her inherent
social sense and partly because she
knows what other women want in
their clubs and entertainments" Prom

Only SEEKING INFORMATION

The average New York boy is not
wonder of wit and wisdom, but most
of them know a good thing when they
see it, Also the contrary Not long
ago one of them saw sign in front
of a Sixth avenue place, "Boy Want
ed" He was looking for something OF
that kind and walked in. There was
nobody in sight and he stood gazing.
Presently the proprietor, a most
grouchy person, appeared.
"What do you want here?' he IN
ouired with scant courtesy.
WELL" replied the boy, disturbed
by the mans manner, and hesitating.
''do you want a boy here?"
"That's what the sign says, don't
it?" snapped the man.
"Yep," responded the boy, getting
his second wind.
"Then we want a boy"
saw right" grinned the boy, back

ANENT A PRETTY GIRL

This is a plea for the pretty girl.
You don't think she needs any? l do,
for, much as the world loves her,
think it is sometimes unjust to her.
In the first place, it will not credit her
with possessing brains. 1 have known
in my life a great many pretty girls
who were every bit as clever as they
were pretty, and 1 don't think one of
them got universal credit for her
brains.
People seem to think that just be-
cause a girl has a pretty face it is inn
possible that she should have any fur
ther good qualities.
Now, isn't that absurd? Just be-
cause the Lord made the rose so very
beautiful, that didn't prevent him
from also making it exquisitely fra
grant, did it?
And Just because he has given a
woman the gift of a lovely face is not
necessarily a sign that he has with
held from her the further gift of a
lovely mind.
Sometimes to be sure, pretty girl
will not be as careful about developing
her mental abilities as her palmer sis
ters, but as far as their original equip
ment is concerned, 1 don't think that
pretty girls are any more stupid as a
class than homely girls as class are
clever.
The other way in which the world
seems to me to be unjust to the pretty
girl is in not recognizing what a de-
sirable and praiseworthy thing her
pretttiness is. Very often I've heard
some one say Of pretty girl:
"Her prettiness isn't any particular
credit to her, is it? Didn't the Lord
give it to her?"
And yet these very same people will
commend the clever girl as if her
cleverness were a thing of her own
creation. Didn't the Lord give the
brains just as much as the beauty?
Doubtless these people would tell me
that the clever girl deserved credit
for developing her brains.
The pretty gffl undoubtedly fostered
and developed her beauty and deserves
just as great credit for that.
To think pretty face a vain and
useless thing shows great narrowness
of mind.
We honor the poets and sculptors
and painters and artists of every sort
who in all times have given their
hearts and lives to the creation of
dead beauty.
Why not as much honor to the
woman who does what she can to fos-
ter and improve her gift of living
beauty? RUTH CAMERON.

HASH, A COMPANY DISH

Who would think of serving hash.
just poor old commonplace hash, at a
luncheon to which guests had been in
vited? 1t is too bad to speak disparag-
ingly of so trusty dish as hash, but
1t really isn't Wand that is common
ly associated with company functions.
It appeared at a recent luncheon, how
ever, and enjoyed as good standing as
the daintiest croquette might have
had 1t was brought on in individual
china rameklns, in which it had been
baked until brown over the top.
The hash, by the way, was no ordi-
nary product of the chopping bowl
but was made of cold roast beef to
which had been added slice of cold
boiled tongue, a piece of cold boiled
smoked ham, a green pepper and a
Spanish red pepper. The bowl in
which the meat was chopped had been
rubbed with the cut side of a garlic
Glove. The seeds had been taken out
of the green pepper, and it had been
parboiled in salted water. The mixture
was seasoned with salt and pepper and
melted butter, and it was put into the
ramekins with small pieces of butter
on top and baked until the tops were
brown. Any other hash recipe could
be used in this way if desired.

Concerning the Society Man

a society man must make up her mind
to contend with. Her husbands valet
is likely to know a great deal more of
her husbands movements than she
does. It seems to me that ROb's valet
spends most of his time carrying Rob's
evening clothes to and from clubs in
pursuance of telephone instructions
Of course, we dine out together lot
and during the season we give great
many dinners, but we have very few
dinners tete-a-tete. If we have no en-
gagement Rob usually dimes at one of
his clubs.
You see society is just like tread
mill. Once you start you can not pos
sibly stop. You cannot go here and not
go there. If you try that you'll find
that you have antagonized some of the
very people you most care to please.
For myself l should not mind, but Rob
is superstitious on only one subject
he is afraid of making enemies. When
ever he talks seriously to me it is al
ways on the same text, Tact" If
you want to know the truth, tact is
only another name for hypocrisy.
