FOR THE HIGH SCHOOL GIRL
ModIstes Have Paid Especial AtteS
tlon to Designs Suitable 20 Some
what Trying Age.

Heretofore there has been a lack
OF properly fitting clothes for girls
from eleven 20 fifteen years Of age
Girls OF such ages are too young for
misses clothes and too old for chill.
dren's sizes There are now sizes to
suit these ages. The waists and hips
OF these dresses are cut larger than
for misses. The bodices are usually
OF a simple style. many having the low
neck and three-quarter sleeve. or the
sleeve that turns az the elbow.
serviceable two-pieoe dresses have
the modified MILDLY blouse. with a
skirt OF contrasting material. The
iiounce skirt is also well liked. For
school wear serges. gabardines and
black and white checks are used. RA
are also the smaller Scotch plaids.
Coats for these misses are made
with odd yoke effects. raglan sleeveR
kimono collars and belts placed at the
low waist line. Some coats have the
fare. which is 80 fashionable In vo-
mems coats. produced by the use OF
two fiounces edging the coat, or BY
cutting the coat in two sections. the
lower OF which has considerable full
ness. The materials for these coats
include serges. gabardines. novelty
worsteds and silks, smart checks,
fancy mixtures, poplins, worsteds in
crepe effects and ratines.
Collars and cuffs are Of lace, batiste
embroidery or crepe embroidered in
white or colos. Fancy silk collars
are used on some OF the cloth coats.
Novelty buttons are a prominent trim
ming, being in matching or contrast
ing colors. In addition to navy blue
the popular colors are tango, sage
green, copenhagen. rust and mahog
any.

DR.. Johnson,s Dictionary.

DR.. Johnson's ignorance of deriva-
tions led him into absurdities Of spell
ing that were admitted even by Bos-
we'll. DR.. Johnson's methods in trac-
ing etymologies were of the simplest.
This is a great work, sir" said DR..
Adams to him. "How are you to get
all the etymologies? why, SIR" re-
piled Johnson, here is a shelf with
Junius and Skinner and others, and
there is Welsh gentleman who has
published a collection of Welsh prov
erbs who will help me with the
Welsh" And so the famous diction-
airy was written, with little assistance
from the learned, as the dictionary
maker himself complained. That lit
tie came from a man who sent HIM a
list of 80 derivations.

"Thls Is Not the Time or Place for
determinations"

some actress who was charged with
having committed perjury in notori-
GUS case. Harry succeeded in having
her acquitted, and she wrote him an
absurd, gushing, hysterical letter. He
mailed 1t to his sweetheart by mis-.
take. Isn't it dreadful to think how
the happiness of lifetime can hinge
upon trifle like that? The girl re-
turned 1t to him with scathing note
and refused to listen to any explana-
tions. All his letters were sent back
unopened. She refused to see him
when he called at her house. They
have never met since. Don't you pity
him, Marion?"
"Yes," said Marion In low voice.
"And now at last he is going to be
happy again." Kitty went on, "and /
know-well, l know that within a few
days l shall have an engagement to
announce. And, Marion, dear, he is
coming to call tonight and | wanted
so much to have you meet him"
Marion sat staring into the fire. She
was trapped, fairly trapped. To run
away was impossible; it would not
only mortally affront Kitty, but would
tell her the secret. And it would show
Harry that she was afraid of him. How
miserable she had been over that af-
fair! For months she had struggled
with the impulse to write to him, but
her pride was too strong for her. And
now--how foolish she had been!
Well, there was nothing to do but to
meet him brazenly, and for Kitty's
sake no word must pass that would
betray them.
A ring at the bell, and Kitty started
up excitedly.
That's Harry!" she exclaimed.
"And ! haven't got ready. Marion,
can't simply can't let him see me
with my hair like this. You must en-
tertain him for five minutes till am
ready" And she flew up the stairs
just as the maid announced the guest.
They knew each other at once, and
stood dumbly watching each other,
each conscious Of the same bewilder.
ing surprise and pain. Then Marion
found herself murmuring the conVen-
tional words Of greeting.
Sit down. Mr.. Lamont" she said.
Kitty won't be long. I'll go and see
if"
Marion" said the man in low
voice, lit is no use playing with each
other like this. For Gods sake tell
me what you are going to do"
What / am going to dor" Marion
found herself automatically repeating.
why, Harry"-the word broke spon-
taneously from her lips-7'T am not GO
Ing to do anything. For Kitty's sake
no mention Of the past must be made. |

MARION AND HARRY
Nv IohN HAND.

Kitty met Marion Haynes at the
door.
why, Marion, dear. this seems too
dear TO be true" she said. "And now
that I've got you here | am not going
to let you go home for whole month
at least"
The girls had been inseparable at
college, but they had graduated at the
same time, five years before, and since
then they had not seen each other, for
they lived In towns nearly a hundred
miles apart. Gradually the exchange
of letters had dwindled. and in spite
of their continued affection they had
become recOnciled to the separation.
Then Kitty had seemed to discover
a new interest in her friend. She had
written to her to come and spend a
week or two with her, and had insisted
until Marion came.
That evening. when the girls we're
alone. Kitty said:
Marion, have a secret to tell you"
Marions eyes instantly fell to the
level OF Kitty's lap. But the engage
ment finger had no ring on It,
I'VE haven't spoken a word OF love
as yet" Kitty continued, but l am
very fond of Harry. and / know he
cares for me. Nov, Marion, you re-
member when we were at college we
promised never to have any secrets
from each other. Has there been any
romance In your own life?"
Marion remained dumb. Some things
are too tragic to be told.
"You see, about Harry and me-" Kit
ty prattled on-she had always been
a chatterbox-"It is this way: met
him through our mutual friends the
Fernleys, six months ago. and we liked
each other from the first minute. And
he was so interesting; he had had an
unhappy love affair a couple Of years
ago. Mr. Lamont was wildly in love
with some girl or other and she Tilted
him"
Marion sat as still as though she
had been turned to stone. Harry La
mont! She ought to have known that
fate had not brought her there for no
purpose.
1T was very sad" Kitty continued
artlessly. This girl and Harry were
wildly in love with each other, and
they would have been married long
ago but for the Misunderstanding
such an absurd one, too. Harry is a
lawyer, and he had been defending

they do II! | know one woman who
sets her mirror on the floor TO view

arrange her girdle, and completes her
head dressing through the aid OF a
nail on the wall. She really could
AFFORD two or three large mirrors, II
she made up her mind to II, but she
just doesn't take the trouble.
On the part OF some. this hesitancy
to acquire a large mirror is some
times due to a dislike for the usual
mirrored furniture to be seen in the
shops-and the prices. OF course, all
mirrors are expensive, every one
knows that, and 80, when laying out
the money for one, 1t should be Of a
design which appeals to the owner.
Mirrors have two other very impor-
tant uses. They make a small room
look larger and they make a dark
room lighter. Either one of these
uses provides a sufficient reason for
having one or more mirrors about,
without considering their transcen-
dent quality for the rejecting Of femi.
nina beauty. ct Is a well-established
fact that the men never use them.
Clearly proved by the number of men

closet door Of the bedroom. 1t is not
necessary for the glass to be beveled
though this is a matter Of taste and
price. A sufficiently large piece of
glass would cost about $40 or SIS.
The cheval glass shown in connec-
ton with the vase and footstool could
easily form the keynote of a very
charming room. This is to be found
In the shops, and is priced at $50. It
comes in mahogany, gray or white
enamel. If it and the rest of the fur
niture were in gray enamel, the walls
and woodwork might be in cream, the
wall tone being a few shades darker
than that used on the woodwork. The
rug, of course, would be very impor-
tant, and it would be worth while to
hunt until one finds exactly the right
thing, which should be a rug in which
grays and bluffs and creams blend,
with touches Of old blue and old rose;
a rug which is 80 soft and delightful
IN coloring that one would be tempted
to hang it on the wall. The floor
should be painted gray, a few tones
darker than the furniture. And in
this way have we fitted the frame
work Of our room to hold our furni-
ture.
