New Couture Modes

For young girls and for the fluffy
type of woman the little pompon Of
half curls fills in nicely, instead of
the strands. There are about five of
them. They are too small TO be called
puffs. but they make very charm
ing evening couture when one of the
new Spanish or tuck combs is used.
They. of course. go with the more
fluffy type of hair-dressing. as when
the Buffalo Sunday Times.
When the ordinary hairpin is used
TO fasten the coiffure securely, the
large tuck combs and the various
large tortoh'eshell and blond pins.
with long cnrving or square heads,
are used. There are large pronged
steel pins that have peculiarly grace
full and synmetrically balanced leaf
shaped tops. These are curved so
that they follow this general contour
of the head and replace in a measure
the decorative look that the hair does
not have in its present tight and tail
ored simplicity. Many hair ornaments
glisten with inset stones, both white
and colored.
Earrings are another thing that
give a decorative quality to the head
Some are long, dangling fligree
shapes; others, square and oblong
colored stones, seem to match the
simplicity of the couture. Their set
tings are mere rims of platinum and
the cutting is very simple, or the pol
ished caboches.

The Very Real Art of Cutting Bread.

Lucy is perfect paragon or a
maid. OF course, it has taken Aunt
Juliette ages to train her into right
ways of doing things, and give aunt
due credit for teaching her how TO
cook and bake and clean and mend
and do the thousand and one other
things that make up the sum of daily
homework. But in my eyes none OF
Iucy's useful virtues compare with
her biggest talent that Aunt Juliette
had nothing to do with perfecting,
although aunt encourages her in 1t
on every occasion.
Lucy tells fortunes! She can tell
your fortune from anything--from the
way you look at the sun in the morn
ing and the first star you see at
night: from tea leaves and coffee
grounds; from the way you hold your
knife and fork to the way you do up
your hair. 1 step gingerly about the
kitchen when she's around ofttimes,

me and almost grabbed the knife out

For a moment l gasped. wondering
II I had ruined her best knife or
breadboard by some wrong move.

"Of course, know you're not" she
continued, alphabetically, but folks

EGYPTIAN GIRLS AND BOYS PLAYED WITH
TOYS SIMILAR TO THOSE OF TO-DAY

I'D to the present nothing with
which man has had 10 do in the prog
ress and development of the human
race has changed as little as toys,
Ages ago infantile Egypt played
with dolls. boats, balls, dishes, wag-
ons. miniature horses and other ami
mails. The little Greeks and Romans
amused themselves with much the
same playthings, except for the fur
Their possession of a rattle, which
some wise Greeian gentleman very
kindly invented for them.
We know this from the chance
words of a few early writers, from
the sculptures which have been saved
of the different ancient nations which
represent children in the act of play
ing-and also from the fact that many
small TOYS, closely analogous to many
TOYS of today, have been found in the
tonbs of children of bygone ages
dolls, balls, boats, tops and tiny
dishes, added to which there were
small warlike implements for the
boys. such as javelins. bows and ar
rows.
In the Metropolitan Museum Of Art
In New York there is a fascinating
terra Gotta boat, complete to the
smallest detail, says the Mother S
Magazine. It was found in the tomb
of an Egyptian boy of four thousand
years ago.
Take the doh, one Of the few of the
very old toys which fit into the
modern scheme of playthings that
teach, as girls always have and al
ways will play with dolls because
they develop and foster the birth
right of every woman. mother-love:
The early Egyptians made dolls of
earthenware, metal or stone. Some
times arms and legs were made solid
with the body, sometimes separate
and attached by a string. The pre-
historic Peruvians had pieces Of bone

He wanted to cry. but his shoe

voice.

TEDDY forgot his troubles and
looked over the counter, and there
we're two more little girls, only they
had very shabby clothes and pieces
of string tied on their pigtails

little girls had a big, big hole in
the knee of her stocking.
But she had the incest face ever.

Teddy, with their hands behind
them on account of the signs which

stout man with twinkling eyes stood
still and watched them.

they were, and then he went up
and spoke to the clerk. And what
do you think happened"
Dorothy paused, and Mary Eliza

What did happen?" asked Helen.

Teddy wistfully, and while they
watched the clerk came along,
took the tag from his arm and
handed him to the little girl with
the hole in her knee.
Its for you she said, and
she took a box from under the
counter and took another Teddy,
almost exactly like the first one,
from it and handed 1t to the other
little girl. saying. This is for you.
THE little girls looked at each
other and at the Teddy bears, their
mouths open, and the clerk began
10 laugh. It's all right she said.
If you don't believe me, ask the
big man behind you.
"They turned, and there was the
big man, all smiles. Take them
home and be good to them he said
in a big voice, and a merry Christ
mas to you.' And he turned on his
heel and marched up the aisle.
1.-THE little girls held the Teddy
bears tight, and Teddy of my story
sighed happily, because he knew
that his mistress was a poor child
who would 'preciate and love him
very much. And that's ALL"
And Dorothy leaned against the
wall, demanding to know how the
girls liked her story.
