r6. Trouble With the Meat.

Stepping into small restaurant, a
grouchy old man demanded Of the
waiter certain piece Of meat he had
In the show window.
But" said the waiter. "we"-
"No buts.' replied the old man. ''You
bring me what ask for or won't get
anything here at ALL"
Rather than lose customer. the
waiter did as he was told and. getting
the piece of meat. took II back TO be
cooked After long wait the meat
was brought to the customer. who. in
stead of thanking the waiter, said.
Look here. young man, what is the
matter with this meatr
Nothing is the matter with It, sir.
except that the paint on II has formed
a few bisters from the heat"
"Why. what do you mean by thatY
asked the old man.
Simply this" replied the waiter.
Those pieces of meat you saw in the
window were not made to eat They
were made for advertising purposes.
but you insisted. sir. upon having one

yoke and sleeves show the peasant
styles, and the skirts are arranged in
banded or tunic effects The very sim.
plest negligees are out upon kimono
lines, with lace or embroidery applied
fiat as trimmings. Models in Empire
effect have wide box pleats falling
from the shortened waist line and end
ing in slight train.
Most of the lingerie models are
white, but colored designs are some
times seen In the fabrics, and hand
embroidery in colored floss also gives
color touch. Ribbons to match are
run through wide insertions, lace or
embroidery, and are finished in ros-
cites and bows. The loose wrapper e
absolutely out of style.
Potticoats are still used, but they
are subdued and unassertive. With
many frocks the very modish woman
discards the petticoats altogether, SUBJ
stituting maillots, that it is noticeable
that fashionable tailors this spring are
using more drop skirts than they did
in the winter, or where drop skirts are
not desired often they line a plain
skirt with soft silk. This is a step
toward greater, skirt firmness and
form, even though the silk of drop
skirt or lining may be of the softest,
and it may show a light change in the
direction of the current.
With dark toned costumes, the skirt
lining is often made of bright color,
some of the vivid hues so much in
evidence this spring, and the effect .,f
this CLEAN OF gay color when some
movement does bring flash of II into
view is really very coquetish and
charming. The bright greens are par
ticularly good for such lining, with the
popular dark blue and black and white
suits.
AS for the petticoat itself, it is, If
of silk, in silk of the most supple sort.
There must be women who wear taf-
feta petticoats with fiounces, for one
sees such petticoats in the shops, but
for the great majority inexpensive
petticoats of soft messaline with very
scant fiounces, usually accordion plait-
ed, are the thing, and with flounce of
very soft silk, or If wearing qualities
are not the chief consideration, of silk
muslin or chiffon cloth.
Large fiat hats are lined with col.
ored cotton crepe, sometimes stem
ciled in pale blues and pinks.
Blouses of striped material are very
popular. These are of wash silk, made
on tailored lines or of exquisite nous
seline de sole, sometimes iridescent
over allover lace slips. Tiny buttons
of colored enamel, metal, jet or steel
are much used on the new blouses.
Plumes in two colors are much used
The all-white hat of fine straw, trim
med with white wings and raced with
blue or black velvet, is the new of
fering for dressy afternoon wear.
Handsome pins are used in the new
est of hair bandeaux, also buckles
etc., to balance the side not having a
bow of ribbon.

Boston fans two seasons ago when he
was with the Red Sox club, Looks

Wolter had been pitching a great
deal that season, then he covered first
base for a while and followed that Job
up with one IN the outfield. lie proved
big league player in the three posi-
tlons. He pitched good ball. but was
greater with the hickory, which ac-
complishment resulted in placing him
as a fielde". But tickle manager
later put him on the bench
II was not long before the Boston
club asked for waivers on him and Hal
Chase, who had watched the player
for a long time IN California and un-
derstood him better, went TO Frank
Farrell and told him that he could get

waiver price.

Wolter has been worried about being

ing else I think he will make a good
man for our club"
Farrell lost no time and got the
player for the waiver price. Woltcr

told that he was TO be an outflelder
