HIGH WAIST LINE

Raised Lines on the Evening
Gowns Are Especially
Noticeable.

It is not surprising TO the Observant
to mark the return to popularity OF the
high line at the Waist. Indeed, woman
ever strives to oe divineIy tall, and an
opportunity TO increase the appearance
OF her height IS very rarely thrown
away so the empire modes have come

In Praise of Gardeninu.

Charles Dudley Warner: There is
probably nothing that has such a
tranquilizing effect, and leads into
such content, as gardening. BY gar.
dening, do not mean that insane de
sire to raise vegetables which some
have; but the philosophical occupation
Of contact with the earth, and com
panionship with gently growing things
and patient processes; that exercise
which soothes the spirit and develops
the deltoid muscles. In half an hour
can hoe myself right away from the
world, as we commonly call it, into a
large place, where there are no OBJ.
stacles. What an occupation it is for
thought! The mind broods like hen
on eggs. The trouble is, that you are
not thinking about anything, but are
really negotiating like the plants
around you. l begin to know what the
joy of the grapevine is in running UP
the trellis, which is similar to that OF
the squirrel In running up the tree.
We all have something in our nature
that requires contact with the earth.

MANS WORD MUST BE KEPT
Essential Of Business Life ls to Have
the Confidence Of Your
Associates.

A mans word is his stock In trade,
and 1t cannot be broken without In
juring his commercial standing. Many
good men grow careless of their word
and fail to see the importance of keep
ing It until they have suffered some
serious consequence. There are those
whose word is said to be as good as
their bond. Whether 1t Is or not,
their word must be good for the world
Is not easily deceived about such mat
ters.
Keeping ones word is more often
matter of habit than character. Good
men, with the best of intentions,
sometimes become careless in respect
to promise, statement or an en-
gagement, and while no harm Is
meant, 1t might as well be, for one
cannot habitually break his word
without losing his caste as "man of
his word" Nothing is more essential
in business life as the element of con-
fidence, and confidence, after all, rests
entirely upon ones care in doing what
he says he win do. This matter of
personal integrity cuts larger figure
In business than we are sometimes
willing to admit 1t Is one of the de-
mands that business makes of men to
fulfill their words. Let business learn
to distrust mans reliability as to his
word, and 1t will soon discount his
liability as business man.-Omaha
Bee.
