There is no form of construction
better suited to the demands of artis-
tic taste and economy than the con-
crete block In the first place II is
portable and easy to handle. The de-
velopment of the block In the past
two years has been marvellous. and the
material of that nature produced now
In accordance with the accepted rules
and regulations Is all that could be de-
sired both in durability and appear
ance. In fact, 1t is superior. There
has been more or less objection. and II
apparently has been well founded. to
the sameness OF the concrete block.
One was Just like another. But now
in many parts of the suburbs OF the
large cities and in country towns beau
tiful houses are to be seen, In which
this objection has been overcome,
There is variety of faces. and the
courses alternate so that the monot-
ony is relieved.
/ The concrete block house is cooler
in summer and warmer In winter than
/ house built of any other material
| The bugaboo of dampness also has
been overcome. All that is necessary
Is to have block in which plenty OF
cement has been used, with good wa
erproofing compound. thorough mixing
in well-graded gravel or crushed stone
and sufficient curing. This assures q
block that will be moisture proof.

MI HE death of England's king throws
nearly all the courts of Europe
into mourning and In consequence
the subjects of mourning apparel and
mourning etiquette are up for con-
sideration more generally than for
many years. Customs change slowly,
especially those which rule in matters
of greatest moment. Rules of eti-
quette governing In the events of
death, marriage, births and social
functions of high Importance have all
been carefully thought out and are
the crystalized expressions of con-
sideration for others. They are form
ulated from the conduct of those
whose good taste and keen intuitions
put them in position to set examples
Much latitude is allowed individual
taste in the matter of mourning ap-
parel. Some people decry any special
dress for those in mourning, on the
ground that we should not divide our
sorrows with others. But the great
majority feel that the assumption OF
mourning attire is imperative as a
sign of respect to the dead or to his
family as well as an outward token
of a sense of loss. To ignore a death
seems to cast a slight upon the worth
of the departed soul therefore, an in
creasing number of persons in the
best social circles assume what is
called complimentary mourning.
This is either badge of mourning OF
some sort, or the wearing of black fol
q short term. This is a different mat
ter from the mourning apparel as
sumed by members of family. Com
plimentary mourning does not involve
the restrictions which that of rela
tives assumes. Certain fabrics are
chosen for those in mourning. Thes'
are Grape, silk genadine, nuns-veiling
bombazine, net, uncut velvet, crepe-de
chine, mourning silks. felt, voile ant
other fabrics of jet black hue an
soft luster or dull finish. Grape 1

TIGHT SKIRT NOT GRACEFUL
Mistake Made in Carrying the Fash
ion OF the Moment 10 Undue
Length.

A grave protest should be made
against the skirt that is narrow at
It's best and tied in just above the
ankles at its worst.
Il should be condemned and dis
carded by every woman who consid-
ers personal comfort and a graceful
appearance. There is an independent
quality OF American women that re-
fuses to walk with knees pressed
together and a hampered Japanese
manner Of taking tiny steps.
After all. there is a great artistic
delight in a flowing skirt that follows
In soft. sinuous lines the motions OF
the figures.
IN Paris and London ome have
accepted the inhibition Of easy. grace.
ful motion. but It is to be hoped that
our fair ones VIII in some usual and
clever way attain the best of these
suggestions and at the same time
keep the senseless tyranny at arms
length.
