The sandy-haired woman Is often con-

Her hair cannot be described as either

The skin, too, is pale, as rule rather

authenticated blond possesses. and the
lips more pink than red If freckles are
a sign Of delicate skin, then the sandy
haired girl can pride herself upon its
texture, for the face usually boasts q

To my thinking, this type will do well
to conf1ne toilets to blackjack and
white-if the best there is in hair and
complexion is to be brought out. In
certain colors she will be q nonentity-
such as neutral tones lacking character
while in others. though they may be
decided, she will be common looking.
Black and white Is her safeguard. Green
will not be bad IL she has a flush Of
pink in her cheeks, with no tinge Of sal
lowness, or red, healthy-looking lips, and
the same may be said Of rich puppies and
violet. Wistaria shades will suit her,
but mauve. though very pretty. should be
approached with caution. 1t will either
be a success or the result will be de-
cidedly what may be termed wishy-
washy. All black and all creamy white
are good. but the combination of the two
is better.
When the skin Is quite pale, then the
black should be relieved about the face
with creamy white or be made transpar-
ent. Creamy goods, as soft woolens or
crepes, made up with little rich brown
velvet, are very effective, and SO is ivory
white trimmed with fine black lace and
a touch Of pale reseda.
When the eyes are a grayiSh green
and the skin pale gray is a safe choice.
because 1t draws out any tint of pink
lurking in the skin and deepens the
color of the lips and the lobes of the
ears. 1t is astonishing how much this
pink daintiness improves the general
appearance. Gray combined with trim
mings of amethyst will suit this type
When the eyes are blue a pastel blue
may be substituted for the amethyst If
preferred. though the latter will be equal
ly becoming. In fact, / love the pansy
shades for this type of woman. They
seem to provide just the bit Of warmth
she seems to need.
A simple evening frock of black net
in a tiny design. trimmed with velvet
pansies in all their natural colorings(

sandy-haired woman in to very fair
one to look upon.
Regarded upon the whole as a plain
type, 1t can, by judicioius dressing, be
made a very pretty one.

The Bridal Procession.
By Florence Howe Hall.

The ushers should be at the church as
soon as 1t is open to receive the guests.
perhaps an hour before that named for
the ceremony. They take their directions
from the head usher, who should, If pos
sible, be a man of some experience in
such matters He assigns their respective
positions to his assistants, those who are
personally acquainted with the family and
the principal guests being placed in the
main aisle. When a party Of people ar
rive, the usher offers his arm to the
mother or the oldest lady. the others
following. The friends and relatives of
the bride are placed on the left those of
the groom on the right.
The pews furthest to the front are re-
served for the parents and nearest rela-
tives of the bride and groom, respectively.
The other relatives and friends are seat
ed in accordance with the nearness OF
kinship or degree of intimacy. For a
large wedding, 1t is well to arrange be-
shall sit. For this purpose the number
OF the pew is marked on the card Of adj
mission. Or lists of the principal guests
may be given to the ushers. but the first
named method is surer and more expedi-
ttous. The custom of separating q part Of
the middle aisle by barrier of ribbon or
flowers is now thought invidious. The
bridegroom and best man come early.
They slip quietly into the vestry, where
they await the coming of the bride. If
there is maid of honor or bridesmaid,
or both, they should arrive at the house
OF their young friend in good season.
Their carriages lead the way to the
church. that Of the bride, with her ia
ther. coming last. Her mother starts
little beforehand and arrives a few min
utes In advance of the others. She takes
no part In the procession, neither do the
parents OF the groom. The theory Of the
cortege is that it is composed of the
bride. her personal attendants. the brides
maids and her father. eldest brother, I'M
cle or whatever relative gives her away.
The groom. with his attendant, the best
man. meets them at the chancel steps.
The ushers. as masters of ceremony. head
the procession.
When the first carriage of the bridal
party reaches the church the ushers close
the inner and outer doors of the vesti-
bule. All guests should arrive before this
time. In order not to disturb those who
are to take part in the ceremony Word
Is sent to the bridegroom who now ap-
pears with his best man. The maid Of
honor, or one of the bridesmaids ar
ranges the brides train, or sometimes
lady's maid attends to this duty AS
soon as the little procession has been
formed the doors of the central aisle are
thrown wide open, the organ peels forth
the strains of the wedding march, and the
ushers, in pairs. lead the way The
bridesmaids follow, walking two by two,
the maid or matron of honor, If there Is
one. advancing alone. The bride comes
last. leaning on her fathers arm.

LOVE THAT'S KIN TO HATE
BY RUTH CAMERON.

Love is the most beautiful thing in the
world; hate is the ugliest thing; the two
are commonly supposed to be opposite
poles. And yet how often love is just as
cruel and just as much a happiness de-
stroyer as hate
There Is a woman in this town who
loves her son very dearly-so dearly, in
fact. that she is doing her best to spoil
his home. Her son is married to a good
woman, whom he loves and who loves
him: he has comfortable income. he has
children: he and his enjoy good health.
There is no reason why his home should
not be a model Of harmony and happf-
ness. except that his mother loves him
with this love that is more cruel than
hate. She is widow and has lived with
him since his marriage. His wife has
always tired to make her comfortable
and happy, but she refuses to be either,
and everything that the wife does she
misconstrues and often misrepresents to
her son. Fortunately he is a man with
strong sense of justice and infinite tact,
and while he treats his mother with the
utmost love and kindness. he refuses to
let her spoil his love for his wife
l am not forgetting that there are two
sides to everything But this is the de-
scription of witness who has lived in
the nome for some years, and who went
there prejudiced in the mothers favor.
Again. certain young man was in love
with a sweet and desirable girl. His
mother said he was too young to marry.
and by clever intriguing actually sue
ceeded in estranging him from the girl
Since then the girl has married another
man, and the son, who never found any
other woman he cared for. has become "a
man about town in the very worst sense
of that phrase. / think his mother would
give her life now to see him marry a good
woman and settle down, but he does not
wish to marry, and he Is certainly not fit
for any good woman. And his mother Is
to blame.
To be sure, both these experiences are
exaggerated cases of the cruelty Of love,
but l know of many homes where this
less, still spoils infinite happiness every
day.
OF course, there are a great many
sweethearts and wives who are selfish In
their claims on their lovers and husbands
/ am not condoning their faults. But
we all know that sex love is inclined
to be selfish and exacting. Whereas
mother love is universally supposed to be
the most unselfish love in the world. Is
1t not more sad and terrible then, when
we find even this holy affection tainted
by selfshness and jealousy?
Besides the mother must have known
what 1t is to be a wife. The young wife
does not know what it means to be the
mother OF a man. The younger woman is
almost always condemned most harshly
in such cases. It seems to me that the
older woman who has lived long enough
to have greater sympathy and under
standing, and who has q more selfish
affection to live up to, is faithless to a
greater trust.

Latest American Fashions
BY CORA MOORE.

Although it is no longer considered
necessary for the sportswoman to array
herself in outlandish garb as a conces-
sion to her enthusiasm, special toggery
is desirable for convenience sake. Smart
effects are required, but in really success
full models comfort and an easy f1t'' are
not sacrificed to gain them, and as sim
plicity Is always the keynote Of outing
apparel. the most perfect tailoring Is
called for.
For general outdoor wear this summer
the blazer and the norfolk jacket have
taken the place Of the sweater. Each is
made, preferably, of broadcloth or fan
mel. and gay colors are first favored. Col
lege colors. crimson and black, or black
and blue. or yellow and white the younger
generation generally revels in, and
stripes, bold, dashing ones, are much in
order. while among the one-tone patterns
bright. gay colors are INDUCED in gener-
ally. although both navy and black are
listed toward the 'front.' Navy, in particu-
lar. Is always good looking with a white
linen skirt, and linen, a heavy, firm
weave, Is ideal among washable mate
rails for sport costumes.
A new tennis suit consists Of a two
piece skirt. in which an inturned box
plat is introduced at the sides, so that
when the wearer strides about there is
ample width though otherwise the back
and front edges fall together. producing
the straight, narrow effect Of the ordinary
skirt of prevailing mode. The waist is of
the norfolk type. with sailor collar ana
the belt worn loose Is of patent leather.
For riding the model sketched affords
good suggestion for khaki or serge, and
is designed for either cross or sidesaddle
riding. The coat. affecting Meadow
Brook lines, is longer in front than at
the back, and at the sides is sprung in
the proper way. The cuffs are a novel
feature Of the costume. 1t will be noticed
that they are rolled back from a narrow,
extended band, which. not being as large
as the sleeves, permits them to be very
close fitting.
MILDLY blouses are extraordinarily COM
Portable and practical for tennis or golf,
since there is no danger of gap between
the blouse and the skirt with every move
ment of the body. The newest models
are collarless and have the applied yoke
very deeply pointed. The yoke, then, at
the top Is cut V-shape and laced, but 1t
is less apt to be becoming than the sail
or collar.
The mildly suit is one OF the innova-
