to open and eat them. In one he
found a large pearl Of particular
beauty, for which a nearby jeweler
offered him $500 cash The offer was

A THOUGH hats this year are more

as "fancier." than for many seasons

apparel. that they get It, They have

styles so that they look trim and
graceful In tailored costumes that In
dictate rather than follow the modes.
Tailored hats of today indulge In
the pretty gaiety of color that marks
the season In other directions. They
are made In all colors. Halt of the

shown in the picture, gives an inkling
OF the style and variety one may find
in these tailored hats. They are made
of milan hemp, and blocked into shape,
but are soft and flexible. There is
nothing rigid looking about even the
plainest one.
In this particular group, fancy feath
ers and wings. with little ribbon,
furnish the trimming. There are num-
bers of novelties manufactured for
trimming tailored hats. Pompons of
ostrich feathers, OF silk fibre, and
many fancy ornaments which combine
feathers and silk fibre are conspicu-
GUS among them.
II you are business girl choose a
tailored hat for daily wear. 1t may
be daring in shape, gay in color. and
In one or the other OF these particu-
lars 1t should be unusual. 1t may be
all black. but so full Of snap that it
will strike everyone like a cool breeze
on a not day. Just see to 1t that 1t
has style. and suits your own style,
and the trick of wearing the most be-
coming Of all hats will be turned. The
last day of that hat viii be bettsr than
the frst for it will have become en-

Besides plain taffetas, and in the
better grades of the fabric. there are
designs showing widely scattered fig
ures casually little flower forms) on
plain ground. And in the lighter col
ors particularly, there are many beau
tiful, changeable effects
French and an American model
are shown here, both in plain taffeta,
as it happens, but even more effective
In the changeable silk. The American
gown has a let-in sleeve, although 1t
has 4 kimono sleeve effect The
long 'V" shaped opening at the neck
is finished with a ruffled puff of the
taffeta. Under this there is a frill of
black lace-edged net The sleeves
elbow length-are finished with a dou-
BILE ruffie taffeta with a frill of the
black net falling from them.
The short tunic is side plated and
trimmed with narrow ruffies gathered
on to form deep scallops. There are
two rows of this narrow ruffiing. The
underskirt is plain.
In the French gown the tunic is
longer and fuller and caught up at
the right side. 1t is finished with a
ruff1e and drawn in about the knees.
The very ample neck opening is sup
piled with two folds of white net.
With this gown the narrow neck
band and bracelets of velvet ribbon
give pretty finishing touch.

IN the street a greater number of
" light wool dresses are worn than
any other. But for indoor wear gowns
of taffeta outnumber all others In about
the proportion Of two to one. One
has only to take note at the matinee,
the afternoon tea, or any other demi-
dress occasion to find how strong II
the liking for this material. AS the
weather grows warmer it would not be
surprising to find the taffeta gown,
with short jacket, outnumbering cloth
suits for street wear.
1t is a sensible plan, when making
up taffeta dress, to make two waists.
One, having the body and sleeves Of
lace, with some sort of drape of the
taffeta, and one of taffeta finished with
sleeve ruf1ies of net or lace and wired
fiaring collar This widens it's op-
portunities for usefulness so much
that one gown comes very near to fit
ting all occasions.
Skirts of taffeta are provided with
tunics long and short, with slight bus
tie drapery and with apron overskirts
draped in the back. For decoration,
one may look for inspiration to the
gowns of the sixties, made of the same
charming fabric. There are box and
knife plaitings, ruchings and bound
edges. Occasionally ruchings with
pinked edges. In keeping with the
material the garnitures are quaint and
"old-timey."

Tbs best rural credit system In the
world. II actually In operation would
not prove a cure-all for our present
rural ailments. 1t would not get you
anywhere. The farmer who has ne
gotiated a loan upon the most favor
able terms has made no actual nd-
vance. He is just where he was boz
fore. II / am running a losing busi-
ness the more money / borrow the
worse of l am. If l am not produc-
ing a good product which can mar
ket readily and profitably, the less l
put into my business the better. Rural
credit without good farming and good
marketing is delusion and a snare
Easily obtained loans are no substi-
tutes for brains and business sense
and a marketing system.
Rural credit can do just one thing
1t can enable a man to get possession
of a farm and the equipment with
which to farm. II the farming busi-
ness into which the loan launches him
is not paying business the loan has
simply injured him by getting him

permanent advantage unless he makes

PLEAS FOR MINIMUM WAGE FOR
WORKING GIRLS

A plea for minimum wage for
working girls was voiced last night by
Mrs. Glendower- Evans, member of
the minimum wage board of Massa-
chusetts, in a speech at the Women's
City Club.
Zone way to get living wage for
working girls" said Mrs. Evans, lis
by a pitiless publicity campaign
against the manufacturer who re-
fuses to pay a minimum wage fixed
by minimum wage board, and there
should be minimum wage board in
every state.
1.-THE minimum wage board in Mas
sachusetts took up first the brush
making industry. It was one of the
smallest industries in the state and
the wages were the worst in any
trade. 1t was found that u per cent
of the women working in it were paid
less than Sc week.
eve have found in Massachusetts
that SSH week is the lowest pos
Sible sum on which a standard of
safety and decency. in living can be
maintained with security.
"And we made that salary mini
mum when we established our board.
The most hopeful sign is the awaken
ing it has brought to those who at
tended sessions of our board. En-
ployes, who were afraid to call their
soul their own, are now openly dis
cussing the salary question with their
employees.
81 think we are letting loose prin-
ciple that will take us far and make
for reorganization of society. Give
the workers square meal for once
and then trust them to go after more.
The effect on the people of our
tate has been phenomenal. This is
one of those documents up to whole
level we are growing. When the wage
board says to the manufacturer, We
bring the right TO look at VOIIr nav
