LINING IS IMPORTANT PART
French Women Are Most Particular
a. to This. and Their Judg.
mont 10 Good.

French women adore Innings, and
when new coat, or stole. or mum Is
being chosen the lining is certainly as
important as the outside material.
Furs will have white satin Innings
covered with real lace: evening coats
will be enchantingly lined with layers
Of chiffon in different shades. so that
when the coat falls away from the
shoulders a beautiful effect OF color
catches the eye.
Underpetticoats Of vivid chiffon have
the same result when the upper skirt
is lifted. A tailor.made OF quite or.
dinary serge will be lined with dainty
silk flowered cachem;re. in fact. lin.
ings are large items in the mind of
the woman who understands the art of
dress.
Nothing gives surer note Of dis.
tinction to garment than its inside
material. and one may go SO far as to
say that a tailor-made or evening
cloak of any kind. that Is badly or in
differently lined is as lacking in finish
as hair that Is not we'll brushed or
shoes that are not irreproachable In
heels, soles and general polish.

TIDY HABITS TO BE PRICED
Fortunate Indeed Is the Woman or
Girl Who Has systematically
Cultivated Them.

Tidiness Is one of the most attrac.
tive Of feminine qualities. It Is also
one Of the rarest. Early and per-
sistent must be the training which
carries the girl into womanhood with
her bump Of neatness" we'll de-
veloped.
Unless Inherently fastidious during
school days, she is liable to drift into
careless habits which she never out
grows
One girl may have trick of leaving
shoes about her room. As child she
was permitted to do this. and as she
grew older the untidy custom was
never abandoned. for the simple rea-
son that she herself did not notice
anything unusual about It, and prob
ably nobody else took the trouble to
correct her. Another slovenly habit
Is leaving bunch Of combings In the
comb or on the dressing table. Con

she would be thought really tidy.

NATION SAVED By A SPIDER
5eotIand Profited by the Lesson the
Insect Taught to lts
Monarch.

Scotland has many legends that the
sheepherders and highland peasants
never get tired repeating. A long time
ago King Bruce ruled over Scotland
before that country became part Of
England. and he learned lesson from
q spider that enabled him to succeed
when otherwise he would have failed
King Bruce had lost many battles.
He was discouraged. He had made
bis final effort against his enemies
and failed to vanquish them. Deep in
despair he went to a lonely room in
his castle. Reclining on the couch
and thinking. he happened to notice
a spider drop from the ceiling on a
single silken cord. He watched the
spider fastinatedly. II now began its
ascent. It slipped. Time and time
again It tried to mount, but each time
II failed. The king watched intently.
forgetful Of all else. An hour passed
Finally the spider succeeded. 1t was
an inspiration for King Bruce. Why
should he get discouraged. having
tried only few times and failed? He
made one last grand rally against his
enemies and routed them. and from
this incident came the old saying, "If
at first you don't succeed try again"

Another suggested cause Of glacial

finds that the change of position in re-
