LOOKING WELL INEXPENSIVE.
Economy Secrets In Dressmaking by a
Girl Whose Frocks Are Admired.

A girl, whose gowns are much ad-
mired and who makes almost all OF
them with the aid Of a good seam
stress, tells Of her little ways Of econo-
MIXING. Her chiffon waists are given
a Frenchy air by a few rows OF ma
chine hemstitching on collars and cuffs
and various places where it may fit in.
AS this may only be done by profess
SIGNALS, she hunted up Il place where
they do it for II cents a yard.
The regular sewing machine shops
charge - cents for it. but the seam
stress knows of the other places. Three
times a year, when this young woman
engages her SeumstreSS to sew for her.
she also employs Il cheap dressmaker-
that is, she pays the one who is expert
at cutting and fitting 500 Il day and
then has the other one at 81 Il day to
sew on hooks and eyes. make button
holes, do the hemming and all those
little tasks that take so much time. but
do not require cleverness at all.
Sometimes she has the Inexperienced
woman Il day in between the other
seamstress' visits and the garments
are then ready for her to go on work
ing at when she arrives.

When a banana tree is u down the

Inquiry was made as to the whereabouts
OF Mike O'Brien. the old veteran of South
Dakota. The greeting was pathetic, 1t
was joy run amuck, and their embrace
brought tears to the eyes of many of their
comrads who had travelled from the four
quarters of the United States with the ex-
pectatfon OF meeting an old chum, but
met disappointment. Many had died. oth-.
ers lay at home too feeble to attempt the
trip.
The man In the automobile was Knox,
the celebrated halter Of New York city,
worth millions Of dollars. The old soldier
from Bonilla, s. D., was Mike o,Brien.;
The contrast was marked between these
two, one was coatIess, a soft shirt on. and
the sleeve on his one arm rolled up. the
better to feel comfortable In the sweiter-
Ing heat. The other was arrayed In the
most fashionable OF light summer gar
ments. but their embrace and meeting was
that OF two old soldiers who had been
through thick and thin together. and loved
each other as they did their country.

JEALOUSY

Pm not going to waste your time
or mine by trying to explain why and
now jealousy is detrimental. In her
heart Of hearts, every woman admits
the eyes OF proverbiai verdure.
am merely going to give you a
little object lesson.
We both of us know how different
IN nature are the cat and the dog.
They might be compared to men and
women. It is exceedingly seldom that
q man is jealous OF some other fell
lows soulful eyes or romantic man
ner. Such petty ideas are for the
most part considered too petty indeed
TOR his grandiloQuent nature.
Ihat Is Puss. Puss does not waste
her time in wishing she has black fur
II n happens to be maltese. She
stretches herself. puts u her little
pink tongue and proceeds to groom her
comes to you n rubs against your
skirt to call attention to the fact.
On the other hand, woman is con-
tinually worrying al to whether or not
her couture is as becoming as that OF
her dearest friend. She wonders II
her. new tailored suit will At as we'll,
and Is greatly worried because in some
small point she is, perhaps, inferior to
her neighbor.
That is he dog. He will welcome
and ever protect some friendless lit
tie, homely little cur-ff he happens to
be handsome and pedigreed himself.
But let q bigger. more beautiful canine
come to the house. and he is wild with
jealousy. or perhaps It is some new
human arrival who IL usurping his
place. He is mtserably jealous, and
his whole little dog world knows 1t
and is h more gloomy therefor.
Women are constantly likened to
cats. I wish they would assume this
one of Puss' characteristics. II an In
truder happens in to disturb the feline
supremacy, said feline rises and stroils
away with studied Indifference. When
she considers that her human friends
are sufficiently disciplined. she strolls
back n is given milk with the cream
left on it.
Fido often strolls away under sims
iliar conditions. but more often he fails
to come strolling back, and thus misses
out. Or IL he does stroll back, he as
sumes a hurt, Ssulky attitude which ie
more apt to OCCASION testy comment
rather than pity.

DRESS INSTINCT AND JUDGMENT MgBUYING.

Dress instinct" isMOne of the three
things l should wish for should some
good fairy give me three wishes. A
great many people who are said to
dress we'll do not possess h dress in
stinct. They buy stunning, modest and
moderately becoming gowns, but one
feels that something IL lacking. We
may feel this way for any Of three
reasons: Madame may be either ultra
fashionable or perhaps not quite fash
properly fashionable and inartistic, or
finally, her garments, fashionable and
artistic enough, may be impracttcable
when considered in connection with
her social standing or occupation.
It certainly must stand to reason that
what ts suitable for madame liz not
the correct thing for madame's maid.
1t is easy to understand the why and
wherefore of this too obvious compari-
son. But at the other end, where the
two lines almost meet-it II harder to
decide. 1t takes hicetyso OF judgment
sometimes for Betty to decide that
while all white dresses are pretty and
sensible While she is taking her vaca-
ton. they are less practical and some
what too "glary" for downtown wear,
Her instinct for dress must tell. her
that.
Then there isAjudgmett in buying.

with a moderate income. She has just
so much and no more to spend on her
clothes. If she is wise. she has already
decided upon two or three becoming
and not too pronounced styles. She
must not indulge her taste for pretty
lingerie or for attractive hats to the
detr'ment of her more practical and
palmer wardrobe.
1t is q splendid plan to adopt some
becoming color and determine to- hold
to that color through the season. II

something that cannot be helped.

One OF the commonest faults Of

In a school room sometime and see
how many boys as we'll as girls hook
their feet around the iron supports Of
their seats. AS I remember. this was
