matching hue.
The tinsel scarf. particularly silver

favor now as for the past couple of
seasons, while a newcomer in the scarf
line Is a long fichu OF black Tuscan net
heavily embroidered in black silk and
finished with a fringe Of silk braid that
suggests shoestrings.
For the young girl there are pretty
little bolero or Elton jackets Of white wolfe

same material in color others. more ex
pensive are finished with an insertion

Altogether. your grievance has a very
different aspect when you emerge from
this train of thought hasn't it?
And yet the facts haven't changed
bit-only your way of looking at them
and for them.
Which train will you take, my friend?
Yes, 1t certainly requires more courage
and altruism and more of a sense OF JUS
tice and fairness than the average person
has to climb into that second train.
But surely you are glad Of an oppor-
tunity to prove that you have all that.

THE DAILY CHIT-CHAT.
By Ruth Cameron.

You are angry. Hurt" you call it. AS
a matter of fact. that way OF expressing
il is merely a graceful fashion Of imply
ing that the blame of your disgruntled
! state Of mind belongs with some one else
And in the absence Of the friend who
has angered, or rather hurt you. you
are going over in your mind your side OF
the case.
You mentally rehearse what you would
like to say to her:
Il had a headache when 1 got up and
vet 1 worked hard all day. you JUSTIFY
yourself And then everything Went
wrong There l walked way down to the
dressmaker's in the broiling sun ana she
disa ppointed me, and then, just as was
trying to get little nap. that woman
from the church called to ask II would
not give something for the next supper.
and, to cap the climax that meat Tor
dinner was bad. and / had to walk way
down to the market for more, and the
| man was rude 20 me. So When she CAMEO
me up l was just as tired and nervous as
! / could be- and my head was simply split
| ting And to have her say that she
thought 1 ought to do something more
| on that committee was JUST the iaSt
straw. When you think or what We zone
already. And now she thinks l ought to

sorry. And l thought she was fond OF
II she knew all We pSeH lii ouSH
| with today and all I've done on that old
committee, 1 guess she'd feel ashamed of

| Such is your natural train of thought.
From it you emerge more hurt than
ever and more determined not to say you
are sorry. but instead to extort such an
admission from her.
/ know. you see. for I've travelled on the
same train
But listen. my friend. From the same
station from which that train departs an.
| other one goes out at the same moment.
Very few people take 1t, SO II you 90 you
will have novel experience.
It is the train of thought that leads into
the land of the other side OF the ques-
ton.
That is. instead Of trying to marshal all
| the conditions that make you excusable,
| this time you to try to marshal all
! the conditions that make your friend ex-
cusable.
You are to say to yourself: She is
really much more tired than I am. She
works under a terrible strain all the time

The bolero is the newest garment
fashion has put forth as her favorite
AS was predicted when the short
basqued jacket came in, it was an IN
evitable movement in the direction OF
the bolero. but it has taken some time
to reconcile us to this fantastic little
wrap With autumn and winter COM
ing on and the inevitable return to
garments of a warmer type, the actual
triumph of the bolero must be post
poned till the coming spring, except
in the case of house gowns, which
might show the bolero tendency. OF
course, a few seasons ago the cheap
little coat of fur was perfect craze.
but there seems to be no inclination
on the part of the furriers to revive
it Why should they when the present
fashion of the wide deep coats pays
them so much better?
No Vogue at Present.
Events have proved that fashion has
drifted boleroward. This quaint little
garment was held in readiness In the
spring by all the first couturieres.
but it was not put forward eagerly
and the famous dressmakers predicted
tnat 1OT the present IL "oui1 nv
vogue On the other hand the best Of
the big shops exploited it with some
success and there was always chance
that the style would travel upward in
the social scale. Between the attrac-
ton of the long coats and the short
coats, however, the new feature never
had a chance except indoors. The
cheyenne coat is charming in mousse
line, silk or even fine cloth. with wide
revers that show the empire tendency,
and girdled round the waist by sash
of satin with long ends.
We still have a fancy for mixing
our materials, and sometimes l,ttiei
coats enable us to do SO very effective
". even when they do not happen to be
of contrasting stuff. Such pretty
street toilet, for instance, was of blue
canvas. with the skirt cut out at the
foot to show a large panel OF deep
blue satin, with a band of one side of
striped black and white silk. The |
short sack coat fell away from the
waist in frort and was girdled with !
blue satin passing under embroidered
motifs. The sleeves were to the elbow, i
with turnback cuffs. and a feature was :
made Of the collar Of striped silk.
