Mourning Etiquette.

Dear Miss Doom.
AS I come to you to kindly help me out
of a dispute, I lost my father eight months
ago, and the other day / bought a black
nat with a very narrow edge of purple
and a small buckle of purple. When |
brought it home my mother felt very bad.
She said she didn't think 1 should go out
OF mourning SO soon. Now, Miss Doom.
don't You think purple is mourning and
after eight mouths? Also, are black
plumes mourning?
A CONSTANT READER.
Convention prescribes two years as
he period of mourning for a parent.
The first year Is one of deep mourning,
the second of light mourning. Accord
ing to this rule purple would not be
permissible after eight months. Per-
sonally, 1 think it is a matter that
each n should settle for herself. The
presence of crepe or black may not
mean a grief any more sincere han that
felt by the wearer of colors. Mourning
indicates that the person wishes to be
excused from social engagements dur
ing a certain period. It Is a token of
respect as well as grief. whatever
your personal desires may be, however,
] urge you to replace the purple by
black. Although I am sure that it Is
no sign that your sorrow for your
fathers death has diminished, 1t Is
evidently interpreted as such by your
mother. 1t is hurting her feelings and
though, as l said before, we should
settle such matters according to our
consciences, these little, monitor will
tell us / is wrong to thoughtlessly
sacrifice the happiness Of others to our
own personal desire. Every time you
wear the hat the knowledge that it is
grieving your mother will make o
uncomfortable. Don't try to argue with
her about the custom, but obey her
wishes unquestionably.
No, plumes are not mourning.
JERSEY-The answer to your ques-
ton as originally stated is NO"

Put the little forks in rompers and
let them play to their hearts content,
is the saying Of many mothers. OF
course. a large number are needed, but
they are so asy to make, and just as
easy to keep clean, that one does not
mind the making of them. The front
and front boomers portion are cut in
one, and the back and back boomers
portion are cut the same. These are
buttoned at the knee, as illustrated.
Bingham and chambray are used for
these garments. The pattern, $500, is
cut In sizes 1, 2 and 8 years. Age 2
requires 2ss yards of 27-inch material.
The above pattern can be obtained by
sending 10 cents to the STAR office.

FOR RUSTY CRATES.

Crates rust easily when fires are
given up and when the cool days come
and fires are again needed the house
wife looks for a means to clean and
polish them.
A little bath brick made into a thin
paste with sweetoil rubbed W. the
surface of the CRATE or fireirons and
worked in with a soft cloth will do the
work. Polish with a chamois or old
flannel.
Common salt and brown paper heated
will remove rust from steel CRATES or
f%atirons.

added to two gallons of warm water
will restore the brightness to carpets

The Evening Chit-Chat
BY RUTH CAMERON

Yesterday I published some of the
answers that my readers gave to the
query. What kind of man does a
woman like best?" and promised more
Today.
Here goes.
You ask what kind of man woman
likes Let's put 1t, instead, why does
a woman love a manr and the answer
is simply, Because she believes he
needs her. Fully 10 per cent of wo-
mans love is mother love. When a
woman feels that a man needs her own
particular self to round out his life to
watch over and guard him, to under
stand and help, she is going to love
him, no matter who he is or who she
is
What sort of a man does a woman
like best7 The man who is in truth
a gentleman. honest, industrious,
generous simple in speech and man
ner. who treats his foes with the same
courtesy that he does his friends, who
strives to be pure in thought and deed
and who is a friend to the friendless
Ready wit. tact and personal charm
| are greatly to be desired in a man.
but these must be combined with a
trustworthy character to win a WON
ans genuine liking and respect"
THE man 1 like best is manly and
self-assertive. no door mat for me. Alse
he must be polite and muscular, nc
woman likes a fiabby, rude. nor q
coarse man. He must not speak in a
| meek voice. but be both masterful and
polite"

face. A Christian man. courageous,
tender and true. good to his mother,
considerate of his sisters. A man you
can look up to. but that looks up to
you and never jokes about women or
speaks lightly of them"
You ask the great public what
qualities women like best in men
am "a. not unattractive ESQ they tell
me). but still looking for a man who
posses the following desirable quail
titles:
1. observation-disclosures.
2. Honest ambition.
8. AT least ordinary ability.
4. "A kindly sense of humor.
s. Innate courtesy.
Tell me. Miss Cameron, is the search
for such a man hopeless?"
Would you like to know the opin-
ion of one who is said to be a crank
on this subject. one whom her family
and friends say is not to be pleased
with mere human man, one who hav-
ing met every kind ond condition of
the genus homo. still remains hear
whole and fancy free? Then observe
my ideal, which, I've noticed. is by no
means unique one:
"A man who is first and foremost
a man in every sense OF the word
big physically as well as mentally
| morally and spiritually. A man in
| capable of anything small or petty
One who is particular in little things
little attentions that mean so much &c
| a woman. Above all. man who has a
| sense of humor. Good looks are not
| essential, neither is wealth. and to be a
man he must possess faults. But just
a big, clean-hearted chap with a broad
shoulder on which to lay your head
when things go wrong"
