There is a preference for white laces

Light, filmy laces are trimmed with

The popularity for the one piece

More ostrich feathers are being sold

Black velvet is paramount as trim

He let hcr go, wondering why he
did so. yet held from the declaration
Of his feelings by some intuition.
When he was again alone he became
conscious of little sound In the
stiffness; soft song sung in a
quavering voice. He rose, followed
the sound, and came upon a little
summer house set at the foot Of the
vegetable garden. In 1t little old
lady sat with big pan in her lap

The little old lady rose hurriedly,
and the peas flew in all directions.
''Oh, what would Julia say II she
knew you saw me?" she gasped.
She was quaint little figure. Her
modish black chiffon gown was Gov
cred with big, white apron: her
hair, dressed with jeweled combs,
was piled high on her head, and she
had pcrched on It an old straw hat
to shade her eyes.
Julia doesn't like to have me do
anything In the Kitchen" she faltered.
'You know Julia has been away
to school. and since we got the big
house she wants us all to live like
people In the city; but I"-she drew
quick breath-'T have always

and cannot get used to idleness."

garden half the time"
"Oh. is she?" The little lady's
tone was eager. Il wish you would
tell Julia, she thinks ladies-like
your mother-do not do such things" :"
Dushane knew now the cause OF his
instructive suspicion OF Julia's beauty.
He had felt behind It there was 3
lack of character and a snobbishness

was unquestioned. but the women of

Modern Public Highways.

The people OF the city are not the
only ones who pay tax money for
the building and improvements Of
streets and highways that never is
spent on the roadways. And this
condition in the country gave John
Winters chance to say one of his
occasional good things. 1t was a
town meeting. The people of his vii
lage could not understand how the
money appropriated for roads had
vanished with such negative results,
and some OF them attended this
meeting of the select men to dis
ouss the matter.
"Id Just like to say one thing" he
drawled, regardless of the fact that
he had interrupted an indignant
neighbor. "I don't want to make any
fuss whatsoever. but I'd just like to
ask this honorable board OF public
highwaymen"-
And that was as far as he got. A

Beauty Doctors Are Recommending 10
Said to Have Splendid Effect
on the Skin.

II the skin happens to be dry anu
harsh, have you tried The soothing and
smoothing effect of the so-called Greek
bath? This was favprite remedy of
the ancients and has been revived by
modern beauty doctors.
Mix seven tablespoonfuls of pure
olive oil and one of lavender water
and rub it well into the entire body.
Apply little at time and rub in
we'll with the palms of the hand,
using circular motion.
To get the best effects from this
bath the body should be kept very
warm during the rubbing. If hot

As every one should know how Il

rules that are essential:

Baking powder should be measured
By gently rounding, not heaped or fiat
tsaspoonfuls. With sour milk recipes
use baking soda and cream Of tartar
rather than baking powders.
Never guess at measurements. Most
recipes give exact proportions-which
o good cook sometimes modifies. A
cup, when not defined, usually means
the stone china kitchen coffeee cup
that holds little more than half q

The richer the milk the better the

Get ready pans before starting cake
There is but one sure way to prevent

never tastes.
