All the same, they were trudging

Their baskets were empty and, to
be candid, they were in very bad
temper.
AS they entered the little village a
large dog ran at one of the party. The

Wings, large and small (but mostly
smalD, have been made for late sum-
mer and early fall millinery and the
manufacturer has considered their
mounting in nearly every case. The
base of the wing is set in little dish
of feathers or a raised band or some
other device that will adjust itself to
the brim or crown of shapes. This is
sewed to the hat and the wings spring
from it at all sorts of odd angles and
in many novel positions.
Among the prettiest wings are those
that show two colors, one on the upper
and a contrasting color on the under
side. That is, the wing is lined
with small feathers in a contrasting
color. Most of these two-toned wings
are large and used on long velvet tur-

During a recent curling-match in

man, was so delighted with the accu-

was heard to address him in the fol
lowing manner: Lie down and dee,

Good Form In Dress.

Few women know how to put OF
their clothes. This sounds like a very
startling statement, but let us stor
and think over the matter quietly.
How frequently we see women with
dainty, well-made and even well-cut
clothes, and yet how few appreciate
the beauty Of the garment, and why?
Because the blouse is not pulled down
tightly at the waist line and fastened
in place either by hooks and loops OF
safety pins. Then, too, the collar is
probably not carefully boned SO that
it will fit the neck snugly. Each
woman should study the shape of her
own neck mot some one elses) and
