ADAPTING THE PANIER
PARIsIAN IDEA ADOPTED, WITH. OUT UNDUE EXAGGERATIoN.
Result Has Been Gracefulnese Com. bined With NoVeIty-Best Adapt ed for the Slim, WeII-Turned
 Woman-Suggestion.

Midsummer finds a marked increase in panier effects, but the most ap. proved models are still without any of the exaggeration the name might suggest. The pufing of the tunics is for the most part very low down, so that the overdress only differs from others in the gathering in of the bot, tom line: Various devices are used to achieve the slight pufflng over the trimming band, but sometimes the cut is all that is needed. little more depth at the sides of the overdress than at the back or front making the slight bulging desired For these conservative models, as we'll as for those with the fullness at the hips or slightly lower, the softest fabrics are used SO that the lines of the figure are still very graceful. It is quite plain from all the arrangements of the panier that gracefhlness Is still far more desired than novelty, and so it comes about that women who never believed it possible to wear these dra. eperies are yet wearing them, and sometimes look better than they did in the plain skirts. With every spe. cies of panier tunic the underskirt is still very scant, and the figure seems to get an added youthfulness from the ,puffed overdress. But the panier has it's limitations. Only slim, well-turn. ed women can wear it with any de. gree of smartness; on others, the chunky figures or the ones too tall for. the piquant detail, paniers seem something of an absurdity.
 In line and dignity and certain gentle softness, the costume illustrat. ed offers splendid suggestions for mourning, and the dress seems like wise suited to the matron, both youth. full and middle aged. The model, too. gives one of the best ideas for using { up old materials as before mentioned

Frederick W. Lehman, solicitor general of the United States, was walking briskly toward his home one evening with four or five cumbersome packages tucked under each arm. A breeze struck him, and as .'one large package served as an impromptu sail, It was all Lehman could do to make aeadway.
 A friend met him as he was tacking desperately against the wind. Why ion't you have the stuff delivered?" asked the friend, noticing that the bundles contained the name of 8 store that keeps a squadron of auto delivery vans.
 Because I never have things deliv. ered," replied Lehman. That's one trouble with the people of this coun- try.

day at Miss Minerals, was with
them.
Don't you-all wish Santa Claus had

ing till Christmas to hang up our
stochngs?" asked Frances.
Christmas isn't Santa Claus birth
day." corrected Lima. God was born
on Christmas and that's the reason
we hang up our stockings"

It to me and she bout the dandiest

"Yes, he can be named Sitting

to the compromise, peace was once
more restored.

'1t isn't 'squashes, it is 'squaws,' +"

Jimmy, "cause it's in the Bible and
Miss Cecilia 'splained it to me and
she's bout the high-steppingest

"and you and Frances is the souashes

suggested Billy.

If got to have a niger papoose

dignant Frances. you can strap him
to your own back, Billy"
"But I amt no SQUASH" objected
that little Indian.
I'VE can have our dolls for papoos-
es," said Lima, going. to the swing
where the dolls had been left. Billy
pulled a piece Of string from his pock-
ct and the babies were safely strapped
to their mothers backs. With stately
tread, headed by Sitting Steer, the
children marched back and forth
across the lawn in Indian file.
So absorbed were they In playing
Indian that they forgot the flight of
time until their chief suddenly
stopped, all his brave valor gone as
he pointed with trembling finger up
the street.

Aren't you ashamed to tell such a
story, Jimmy Garner?" cried Frances.
BILLY didn't propose any such thing.
"'Tain't no use to rum" advised
Jimmy. They're too close and done
already see US. We boun' to get what's
coming to us anyway, so you might
JUS as well make 'em think you amt
'fraid Of 'em. Grown folks got to all
time think little boys and girls r

Aunt Minerva1l sho' put me to bed
this time," said Billy. Looks like

Mother will make me study the

Lima dismally.
"Mama1l lock me up in the little
closet under the stairway" said Fran
ces.
my mama1l gimme bout a million
licks and try to take all the hide off
o. me-" said Jimmy; "but we done had
heap of fun"
It was some hours later. Billy's
aunt had ruthlessly clipped the turkey
feathers from his head, taking the
hair off in great patches. She had
then boiled his scalp, so the little boy
thought, in her efforts to remove the
mucilage. Now, shorn Of his locks
and Of some Of his courage, the child
was sitting quietly by her side, listen
ing to a superior moral lecture and
indulging in a compulsory heart-to-
heart talk with his relative.
II don't see that 1t does you any
good, William, to put you to bed"

Billy.
