MOLESKIN POPULAR
IN SMART FUR SETS

Last season the designers produced
many beautiful sets of fur combined
with lace, silk or chiffon. This year
they have surpassed last years produc-
ton, giving us fascinating sets of mum.
hat, collar, and bag. These are more
elaborate and fussy. in some cases, than
beautiful, but others are piquant and
charming IN a quaint way.
Moleskin figures prominently in the
field. 1t is not enc of the costly furs.
and is, therefore. within the reach of
the moderate purse. Being supple, II is
easily handled. and when combined with
dull blue. violet. gold. or silver il Is
charming. A soft scarf and muff Of
moleskin and taupe embroidered chif-
fon had clusters OF dull blue and rose
satin roses to supply the touch OF bright
color. A picturesque little bonnet and
reticule could be had to match these.
Chinchilla and the less expensive opos-
sum are effective in combination with
the mCdish puppies of this season. One
set was of purple velvet, showing a tint
OF gray. Bands Of oppossum fur and tas-
sells OF dull silver hanging from the
points OF the collar and from the ends
Of the fur low on the nun completed
the color scheme.
Ermine sets are more in demand this
season than ever Coats of this elabo-
rate fur appear in greater number. Col
laretteS. toques or the handsome scarf
and nun are exceedingly popular. De-
signers have combined ermine with black
velvet making lovely fur sets which

Something new in the way Of sachet
bags has been invented by a clever
young woman with an eye for the artistic
even in little things. Instead of the
little fat sachet pads one usually sees.
she makes them to resemble different
small fruits.
Small pieces Of purple. green. and
white silk are filled with sweet-smelling
spices and sachet powder, with an
outer covering OF cotton directly under
the silk that is tinted by hand IN the
natural color OF grapes. They are then
arranged in small clusters and fastened
to broad green grape leaf with fine
tendrfis made OF green sili-covered wire.
The effect Is quite natural and very
pretty. Small apples Of satin and peaches
Of tinted velvet are easy to make: straw
berries and plums are dainty.

SENSIBLE GIRL is
ALWAYS RESPECTED
EarnestnesS Wins Success in
Any Position.
BY ELLA WHEELER WILCOX.

by ELLA WHEELER WILCOX.
From the ranks of labor comes a cry:
How may working girls be protected
from the insults of employers and super
intendents and others in authority? Who
and unworthy girls, who invite such in
suits, and must all others suffer in cen
Sequence?"
The wisest course for self-supporting
girl to pursue in these matters is to
cultivate diGnrt;, self-contrOl aid self
rLsTect. Added to this she must tie
something of a Philosopher, and learn 10
IcCl that maternal sentiment for all rem
which will eHabla her to pity their weak
ness and to hell them to higher IDEAS.
Ignore His Meaning.
Instead of becoming angry and flying
into a passion of Indignation when an
employer or superintendent grows too
familiar and losing a position in conse-
quenCe, the wise girl will endeavor first
TO ignore his meaning and to answer
any direct proposal he may make by
some irrelevant remark concerning her
work
Oftentimes that will forever put an
end TO Offensive advances on the mans
part. There are men who think it their
duty and privilege to test the honor and
good sense Of every woman who is not
protected by d man physically stronger
than themselves.
Having encountered some frivolous and
fiirty working girls. these men take it
for granted that every working girl is
inclined to the same faults, and they re-
gard it as their recreation to put them
to the test Once they receive proof that
a young woman does not care to be ad-
dressed in n familiar manner they re-
spect her and let her go her way in
peace.
Other men are made more eager by
this Indifference on the part of the
ions calculated to storm the citadel of
'er self-respecJ and overcome her SCru-
les by continual mental assault
Give Him Honest Statement.
When this type OF man is encountered
woman should say to him frankly: Il
here to attend to honest work and
70. earn an honest living. I want you to
eat me as you would like your sister
daughter treated in a similar position.
you cannot do this, l must ask you to

Refining Silver Drawers.

to peal out the velvet that Is to be re-

USE TUNIC OVER
BLACK SATIN GOWNS

Even though = black satin evening
gown has been worn for a considerable
number of seasons, it can be transform
ed completely into a modish and up-to-
date frock by using a tunic over it. A
favorite color is steel gray, one of the
popular combinations with black. The
embroidery is in gray and black, an
elaborate design, which need not be ex-
actly copied to get the effect. a much
simpler motif will do the trick. But the
chiffon must be a heavy, substantial
Quality, else it will not cling and hang
properly. Also it should be weighted at
the hem. Just under the bust there is
a bowknot of the chiffon, mounted on
a coarse cotton cable cord. This catches
and holds fullness that would other
wise leave the tunic shapeless at the
waist line.

work seriously, and who is determined
to keep herself clean and worthy, will
succeed in making her employers and
associates treat her with respect in nine
teen situations out of twenty. And she
will retain her position or advance to

There are, of course, occasional cases
OF blind infatuation on the part Of a
man who is carried away with some
woman in his employ, where no amount
of discretion or coldness or argument on
her part can hold him I'm check.
When these cases occur the only thing
for sensible girl to do is to resign

Creosoted Wood Blocks Have
Proved to Be the Best City Paving

until the surface of the street is per-
fectly smooth and true to the pre-
scribed contour They are then
ready for the filler.
There has been much discussion
and difference of opinion among en-
gineers as to what should be used for
filler. Three kinds have been used
with success. They are pitch, sand
and grout. IL pitch is used, 1t should
be at melting point OF from $50 to
100 degrees, applied. hot and sparing-
ly as possibly to I'LL the interstices
between the blocks. taking care to
leave none on the top of the pave

is still hot. This will insure the

is desirable.

When mention was made hereto
fore In this article OF the famous and
world familiar highways that had
been paved with the matchless creo-
soted block It was not the intention
TO leave the impression that this form
Of paving was SO expensive that only
the thoroughfares which were OF Inn
mense value TO the cities in which
they were located could be- so paved.
On the contrary, the fact that the
creosote block gives such perfect sat

fact that II outlasts every other pave
ment that could be at all considered
as d rival makes II actually the
cheapest improvement III the long

exercised in preparing the sub base
and In mixing and tamping the con-
crete foundation. the most careful
pains should be taken in making the
sand bed, or cushion, upon which the
blocks are to rest. The depth usual
w specified is one inch. This should
never be exceeded. In fact the best
results are obtainable by using Just
a sufficient depth Of sand to All the
depressions in the concrete and level
the surface for the blocks.
If there is car track on the street
1t Ia a good practice to mix cement
with the sand in proportion or one
