SATIN AND TAFFETA MANrLEs
Decided Vogue Is Apparent for These
TaIlor.Made and Attractive
Garments.

To replace the tailormade for after
noon and visiting wear. there will be
great vogue in long, soft satin and
taffeta mantles. These are quite
straight and for the most part unlined
and, when not expressed in black, are
carried out IN strict harmony with the
gowns.
Large square revers, allied to equal
ly large square shaped collars, figure
on an appreciable number Of models.
And by way Of breaking the monotony
Of an all-black scheme the revers are
oftentimes faced with some color, such
as bishops purple. peony or Pekin
silk is pretty. But always are these
contrasts yelled In black chiffon. That
seems for the moment to be a hard
and fast decree.
Fringe also plays Its part, and the
mantles in their entirety are being
regarded by large fraternity Of won.
en- as a veritable boon for filing the
anxious hour pending the definite &C.
ceptance Of the proposed fresh modes
and styles.

The Waist Line.

An indication Of present fashions Is
that the waist line will in many cases
be indicated by narrow belt Of the
old.fashioned sort which one has
ceased to associate In ones mind with
smart dressing. In very many Of the
newest gowns the waist is emphasized
and In Its normal place.
Asa rule.the belt corresponds with the
other trimmings Of the gown, ,but this
Is not insisted upon, and sometimes It
has no connection with It at all. but
belongs wholly to the must abused re-
gion Of the fancy belt. Thus a striped
gown has Its narrow belt of folded
brocade tissue, and an afternoon frock
which was carried out In pompadour
silk emphasized It's possession Of a
waist by circling II with a band Of
stif, straight ribbon.

Worried About Daughters Size
My dear Miss Doom

MY dear Miss Doom
VIII you please tell me what I can
DO to make my daughter grow? She
IS very small for her age. Thanking Won
IN advance. yours truly. MRS. S. p.
There is no way you can add an inch
to yonr daughters height except by
providing the means nature REQUIRES for
the normal development of children.
These include plenty of nourishing food
taken ut regular times, ten hours sleep
svery night, and last, but not least, a
life in the open, Keep your daughter
out of doors as much as possible. and
while she is there see that she is en-
gagged in some play that provides for
the activity of both mind and body. In
order that all the muscles may be
equally developed have her join n GYM
rasiuni class. l am sure she would en-
JOY the course, as te most children 1t
Is the finest kind of play.
IF milk agrees with her let her drink
ms much of It as she desires. DO not
stint her supply of fruit and vegetables
and beef as rare as she can eat It
and still enjoy It. II you have reason
to think that she is rundown, try Civ
Ing her a tonic of beef. iron and wine.
DO not let the matter worry you. A
small sta tire is not a sign of weakness.
1t may be that her growth is delayed
and when she starts to add the Inches
she may surprise you all.

VALUE OF SMALL GIFTS

Mr.. Smith brought his wife home some
violets the other day, but instead of
thanking him p~rettily. she reproved him
for his extravaganza In spending money
on that sort OF thing, when II was so
badly wanted for useful things In the
house.
The poor man looked crushed, and I'm
sure he will not offend in that way again.
The wife who does this kind of thing
when her husband brings her home a lit
tie present is very foolish. for she takes
all the romance out of life.
Never mind II you do want u new ket-
tie or a patent sweeper. the money Is
sometimes better spent on yiolets or even
chocolates, If 1t keeps love alight.
So next time you feel tempted to say
"How extravagnnt," don't! Say Thank
YOU prettily instead, and YOU win reaI
your reward in seeing his pleasure at find.
Ing that you still value even u small gift

If You live beyond your income. as !
happen to know my friend does. of course
keeping up appearances is hard work, and
the sooner the effort is dropped the bet
ter for everyone, because as a rule, no
one is deceived by 1t, and the game is
never worth the candle.
To be able to keep well within the limit
of whatever sum can be allowed for
housekeeping Is an art that 1t is worth
while to take n good deal of trouble to
acquire, IL you want to keep the love
and respect of your people.
For to live beyond ones income in
evitably means misery in the long run.
