You recall that Mrs. Average Woman
seldom gets worked up over reforms
of any kind-in fact. skips all that sort
of thing in the daily papers, and never
goes where Club women congregate,
or ''reformers" hold forth, so of course she
is woefully ignorant of such things, but
when you mention white Sales to Ter
you've struck her ''hobby" and she be-
gins to jumble her words in an eestatic at
tempt to tell you how much she is saving
by hunting bargains.
You acknowledge humbly that never be-
fore have you credited Mrs. Average
Woman" with one spark of imagination,
but you know now, since hearing her
that blue and white checked towelins
makes lovely summer 'rompers" for the
kiddies, and that damask toweling by
the yard Is cheaper than the ready
made pairs of towels that you've been
buying.
And is there a woman alive who owns
boy baby or a girl baby not to say
several who can pass the ready made
department for children and not buy some
of the equisitely cunning little French
frocks trimmed with just an edge of lace
and marked down" to almost nothing?

mother came home without pretty ill
dress' for her. and "Budde" would never
get over being slighted IL the little girls

pass these bargains by, for they are
just too sweet and cheap for anything.
You wander over toward the toilet
counter where perfumes and sachets and

You give involuntarily the long indrawn
"Oh," with which such announcements
are greeted between women. and then
Miss Sweet-and-Twe said;
Yes, it's going to be announced next
