find that I was wrong in think
ing that the average American
woman who is so smartly gowned, and
whose dress allowance is always over
drawn, adorns herself to shine in the
eyes of the masculine sex.
1 admit frankly that the French wom-
an does But it is quite different over
here.
In this land, where woman rules de-
spite her baIlotless condition, the opin-
ion of other women is OF more inpor-
lance to her than the views OF mere
man.
The best dressed audiences are the
matinee audiences. where the men are
few and far between. Women wear
their most becoming and their newest
frocks at bridge ana other women :
clubs. The American wom0u's after
noon frocks are. as q rule, more numer-
GUS and more gorgeous than her even
ing gowns, especially among Il certain
class; and everybody knows that the
American man does not appear with his
women folk until the evening, being toe
busy during the daytime earning the
wherewithal to pay for the frocks.

other sex, is beautifully goWned for a

WHEN PATIENCE FAILED.

~ ATIENCE Is purely a feminine at

If YOU doubt this statement, ask
any woman.

wore It around their neckS.
