In my work I have always tried to

a suggestion which I think will work

logical conclusion. People tell me
that the gowns create are entirely

makers If they are different it Is
because they are logical. They are
designed and executed without COM

to sending cards in acknowledgment

On the occasion OF tea hostess
sends cards to her general list Of
friends. Thus she notifies them that
she will be at home on n certain aft

II they go, they leave cards so that
the hostess may be reminded Of
their presence and may give them

Young girls have their cards sepa-
rately after a year or two in society
and are expected to assume their
obligations about making calls, al

pany her mother IN making first
calls or ceremonlous calls. A girl

The rule Is that first calls should
be returned within week, although
some persons claim that within a
fortnight is allowable. When you
have accepted an invitation from a
new acquaintance a call must be
made within a week after the enter
tainment.
The hours for calling are between
3 and o'clock In the afternoon. A
formal call does not exceed fifteen
or twenty minutes.
Cards Of compliment or courtesy
save time and express a kindly re-
membrance. For instance, a card
is sent with flowers, books, bon nbons,
fruit. or any Of the small gifts Of
fered among friends. In acknowI-
edging these attentions 1t Is not
proper to send a card In return. A
note should be written.
Nothing may ever be written on

TO write an acceptance or a regret

The general rule to remember Is
that married woman leaves her
husbands cards with her own when
making a formal call, whether ii be
the first call OF the season or call
as an Indebtedness after an invita-.
ton. She leaves one OF her cards
for each lady In family and ono
each Of her husbands cards for each
lady and one for the man OF the
household. II she has a son she
may leave two OF his cards. If the
lady on whom she is calling Ia at

and sends her own card by the
year 1t Is not required that she
should leave her husbands cards,
unless. as has been stated. IN ac-
acknowledgement OF invitations, Her
son assumes his own obligations In

The Etiquette OF Cards and Calls By Mrs. E::ek Fass

~USTOM regulates the matter OF
4 cards and calls. Social visit
~ Ing has an established code,
and the rules should be understood
which regulate visiting cards and
their use.
These bits of pasteboard are re-
uulred to do duty on many occa-
sions. For centuries they have been
the accredited Representatives OF
their owners. They are the means
Of discharging social obligations, and
the endless interchange Of cards be-
tween friends and acquaintances
may be truly said to keep society
united. Without these useful little
bits OF pasteboard social debts
could not be paid. Cards are very
often reminders to acquaintances or
our very existence as well as q step
toward renewing friendships or en-
lsrging a circle Of friends.
Cards are often expressions OF
kindliness. sympathy. coincidence or
oongratulation. In fact, there are
few things more important than the
etiquette OF cards and calls.
Card-leaving Is necessary after
having received invitations to q
wedding breakfast, d dinner, lunch
con, card party or theatre party.
The reason is that invitations Of this
sort are personal. They are not In
vitations of general nature to gen.
eral affairs but are an especial
mark of courtesy or compliment.
Church weddings. tees or large re-
ceptions may be classified as gen.
eral affairs. A church, for instance.
is supposed to be ample enough to
hold a very large number OF per
sons and general acquaintances bid
den to n wedding. They may be
present or not, as they please.

would have women wear what
ever is suitable to them, consistent
with their social position and with
the occasion. Those three things are
the only ones that should be con-
sidered In the choice Of dress, and
they should be adhered to vigorously.
For example, consider 1t crime
for woman to wear conspicuous

Build a Gown After
a Logical Design.
Dress Is an art-an art to be
studied as conscientiously as any
other art; and would have the
adept IN it exempllfy her art by
dressing consistently with conditions
and with her own state of mind. In
other words, sad colors typify grief
and brilliant hues indicate Joy.
Clothes should be chosen according

presented, but it Is now approved.
The logic In a design should be
completed. A dress showing the
panier effect is Illogical with a
Grecian border OF a divided skirt. II
you want panier. then see to 1t that
the rest Of the dress is carried out
accordingly.
If your gown is to be built On
Oriental lines, then have no stih
laces or Medici collars 10 upset the
fundamental scheme. If the TanaJra
is your model, then see that your
draperles are exactly like those OF the
original statuettes. Do not start out
with straight lines in your design
and permit them to develop into bulgy
curves. Build a gown as logically as
an architect plans a church. Every
garment, In fact, should be srchltec-
turally designed.

Stephen A. Douglas
By HOWARD L.. RANN


 One hundred years today Stephen A. Doug las born Brandon Vt Vermont was small struggling state at that time it had not begun to propagate the wooden nutmeg the sapless maple Young Douglas attended country school in the winter and wrestled with Vermont farm in the summer, becoming so adept that he could steer corn blow around a of hardheads with hand and read Virgil with the other At the of 20 he removed Illinois with change of shirts and full of legal phrases with which he opened law office in Jacksonville.
 Douglas small. chunky man who wore nothing his face but grim look. He was of the greatest two handed orators winding debaters this country has produced, the only time he fell down was when he tackled Abra- ham Lincoln. Douglas much shorter than Lincoln that when he held a joint debate with him he had to have his remarks reiayed to Lincoln stepladder He against Lincoln several times but never could hit him higher than the knees. The last time he he received twelve electoral votes which was the best record for simultaneous clean up until the meta ncholy assassination of the republican party last November
 Douglas served great many terms in congress the floor he had the unpleasant habit of run hing long, vruent streaks of the English language through opponent and stupefying him with legal phraseology. He called the Little Giant" and has been honored by having several rock crushers and stump pullers named after him.
 One of Douglas favorite diversions was to con- strue the constitution. He got that he could construe it in such a that nobody was sat- isfied with it and several people up and said they could write better themselves Douglas died in Chicago, June 3, 1861, leaving reputation for bull-dog courage that will endure longer than the monument erected to his memory in that city
