The Value Of the Plaetron.

The telI.talc line OF an old princess
dress is about the hips. AS the drawing
clearly shows. this tight look Is en-
tlrely obviatcd by the insertion Of a
plastron, triangular shaped piece of
material over which the gown SEEM
ingly buttons. The net is also used
for little undersleeves- This is very
simple and excellent way OF obtaining
the lines OF this season.
This model was of sand-colored In
dian cashmere, with applied bands OF
silk of a darker, dried-leaf shade, cut
In points. The plastron is of silk not,

by means OF an Egyptian headpicce.
These pieces are most clever imi-

of ancient coins. The colors shade
through all the various tones Of vlo-
let, green, yellow and pink.

The telephone was rung every few
moments for the family physician.
Tho 'phono is' busy" drawled the
operator each time. Whom he was
reached by sending a messenger for
him 1t was too late. The wife died,
leaving the husband insane from grief
and little children motherless. The
physician, who understood the case
and might have saved her, had been
sitting by his phone all tho afternoon
and 1t had not rung. Tho operator
knew the wiro was not in use all the
time, and must have known from tho
agoni2ed calls 1t meant llfo or death.
Had she been conscientious or under
tho strict espionage given operators
today, she would have reported tho
phone out of order and that tho ply
slcian was being called urgently. In

call on the telephone operator. She

4 operator OF my acquaintance
Y y has the exchange installed in
the cozy sitting-room OF her
cottage in tiny dot of village. She
answers calls between doing the fam
ily sewing, cooking, caring for her
children and feeding the chickens.
The contrast between her quiet sur
roundings and those OF city operators
who sit before complicated switch
boards Is very great indeed The ner-
vous strain on the city telephone
operators makes the work great
bugbear TO girls seeking employment
Consequently, while managers are
studying constantly how TO improve
tho equipment and to introduce inven-
tions, they arc also studying how to
make the work attractive to girl oper-
ators. So much depends on these
girl operators that they are treated as
a most valuable asset.
Recently I went through telephone
building, just completed, where every
modern device was invoked for the
health and comfort Of the girls en-
pioycd, There was a roof garden,
which became a sun parlor In cool

the addition Of two short lines OF vel

other.
A moro elaborate costume would
result by making the yoke of lowered
net, either over a color or over gold
tissue, using gold cord instead of
blue velvet about the edge. This Is
most fascinating, as the gold gives
tho effect OF sunshine through the
flowers. A very French touch is I'M
