to wear inside the coats that are lined
with a color or with black, so that
the somber effect will be relieved for
warm days and pretty lingerie waists

is a little batiste bolero, with elbow
sleeves finished all around with a
row of lace slightly frilled on the edge

Summer Town Gowns.

in fact, every fashionable weave, is
considered smarter this year in stripes
than figured, dotted, or any fancy de,
signs. Unquestionably stripes give
slender lines, but they must be used
with Judgment and the width must be
governed primarily by the height of
the wearer. short woman should

the intermarriage Of the duchess
and the NAVY; he strongly advocates the
experiment, not simply for the sake OF
breaking down the social barriers. but
primarily for the cause Of the ultimate
betterment of the race.
1T is Shaw's chief distinction that. for
the sake Of sentiment, he would deny
sentiment. I verify believe a distin-
guished author once remarked to me.
that Mr.. Shaw lives in mortal terror of
the public for fear that it will discover
his great secret-the possession of a warm
heart His reaction Is not against the
sentiment which civic virtue and personal
integrity bespeak, but against the popular
clap-trap, romantlcized notion of sentl-
ment which to the unilluminated goes by
the name of sentimentality.
Bernard Shaw is a man of tremendous
sentiment--social and humanitarian senti-
ment. Sociologlc thought and social serv-
ice are the ruling moral passions of his
life.
The final ideal for civic life he
said la public address not long ago.
is that every man and every woman
should set before themselves this goal
that by the labor OF a lifetime they shall
ray the debt OF their rearing and their
education. and also contribute sufficient
for handsome maintenance during their
old age. And more than that. why should
not man say, when die my country
shall be in my debt?' Amy man who has
any religious belief will have the dream
that II is not only possible TO die with
his country in his debt, but with God in
his debt also
THE germ OF Shaw's philosophy of life
belongs to the whole community and
may be found in these words:
II Fm OF the opinion that my life be-
longs TO the whole community and as
long as 1 live II is my privilege to do
for 1t whatsoever I can.
" 4 want to be thoroughly used up when
1 die, for the harder l work the more
live. 1 rejoice in life for it's own sake.
Life is no brief candle" for me. 1t is a
sort of splendid torch. which 1 have
got hold OF for the moment, and 1 want
to make II burn as brightly as possible
before handing It on to future genera

Bernard Shaw Tells His Deepest
Thoughts About Life and Marriage
Prepared by EDWIN MARKHAM.

Prof. Archibald Henderson's brilliant
volume, George Bernard Shaw; His
Life and Works." is at last completed
and published. II is a work of high value,
revealing all the within and seriousness Of
the great dramatist. In the extract that
follows we get Shaw's own words as to
what is our real business on earth Prof.
Henderson says:
Il once asked Mr. Shaw what answer he
had to make to the statement that he was
a bloodless. passionless, intellectual ma
chine. His answer made upon me a more
profound impression than anything else
that has ever occurred in my association
with him.
Look here, he replied, real feeling
Is the most difficult thing in the world
TO recognize. Two men are walking
down crowded street gazing at the vast
throng of people as they hurry along
with thousand different aims.
To one the spectacle signifies nothing
more than the ordinary metropolitan as
pect of the greatest city of the world.
The other sees in the spectacle q company
of mem and angels ascending and de-
scending an endless ladder which reaches
from earth to heaven
The one passes a starving child
whose face is pinched with the cold he
shudders with discomfort. draws his
greatcoat tighter around him, and, after
giving the child a penny, passes on,
thanking God that he is not as other men.
The other man regards the little waif
with infinite compassion, his heart goes
out in profoundest sympathy, and his
whole being protests against the social
system which makes such things pos
sible. And no devotes his life, not In
giving pennies to individual sufferers, but
to exposing conditions which produce
such horrors and to agitating for such
reforms as will mitigate these horrors
and eventually render them impossible"
"Shaws fundamental socialism prompts
him to batter down the social barriers
which set off the aristocrats from the
common people-these barriers which re-
suit In the aristocracy feeding upon It's
own vitality, breeding and in-breedins,
until the sexual product is hopelessly
anaemic and degenerate.

men, Shaw believes. would be bred

hidden the worn spot In the rug under

It's no use in telling yourself that these
people are not malicious. and that they
did not deliberately stab you In the most
vital point on purpose. It's no use In
trying to convince yourself that they are
really well meaning, klnd-hearted, dun
blunderers. who. as the Irishman says,
never open their mouths without putting
their feet into them.
1t cannot possibly make any difference
TO corpse whether Il was shot by accI-
dent or design. Nor does II make any
difference to our wounded and lacerated
feelings whether they have been ground
to pulp by fool or villain.
Unless a man or woman has enough in
telllgence to know what to talk about he
or she has no right TO intrude in civilized
society and infliot himself or herself upon
innocent and defenseless people. Common
gossip Keeps all OF us reasonably well in
formed about the private affairs OF our
nelghbors, and IL we wish to associate
with them Il is our duty to bear In mind
what subjects are taboo to them and
what topics are pleasing.
This is the most elemental form of
tact, and yet IL Is amazing how few peo.
pie have even acquired the first principle
OF this kindergarten diplomacy.
II we would be liked we must also usa
tact In dealing with our friends opinions
and prejudices. Heaven alone knows
why some people can't be satisfied to
have their own religion and politics and
tastes, without being perfectly insult-
Ing TO everybody who differs from them.
Nevertheless such Is the case and there
Is nobody that is more cordially hated
than the man or woman who feels called
upon to sneer at our religion and deride
our Views and sniff at the things we like
to do.
Perhaps the greatest obstacle to the use
Of tact is that many people consider It
witty TO say sharp, cutting things that
put other people In the wrong, or make
them look foolish. TO make bon mot
they would ALLEVIATE a friend. and TO raise
a laugh they would wound the most In
offensive person in the world.
Such people delight In being thought
original, and unconventional, and pc
ouliar They always take the opposite
side OF every subject under discussion.
and never fail TO point out to anyone
who has made a mistake where he blund-
cred. They are a wet blanket on every
festive occasion, and keep hostess on
pins and needles because che is perfectly
sure they are going TO strike some dis
eordant note In every breast.
These people are not,dactless othreugh
Ignorance, but with malice aforethought.
They deliberately set everybody by the
ears, and they wonder why they are not
liked. why everyone avoids them, and
why they are only asked about under
compusion.

for though you have all other virtues
and have not skill enough to keep off OF
your fellow creatures toes, you are be.
