My dear Doris: Do you consider 1t
an insult for man to propose to
you?
Is the poor creature to be cut of
from all human intercourse from this
moment out, just because he fell In
love with you, and told you SO?
Where on earth did you get such
strange ideas?
1t was very rude. indeed, Of you
to invite the mans sister and his
friends and not invite him. He paid
you the very highest compliment a
woman. Why should you insult him
for 1t?
He doesn't have to come to your

A RECENT investigation by an emi-
N nent experimental psychologist
n into the probiem: "why do
some men and women when
hrst they meet take instant likes or dis
likes to one another" brings to light
the fact that there are often chemical
affnities and repulsions between indi-
viduals much as between vinegar and
ammonia, acid and alkan or oil and
water. s...
He unearthed one fact particularly.
that the chemicals and vapors Of the
human flesh give forth odors that are
Desirable or obnoxious differently to dif-
ferent people and races.
Shakespeare, perhaps, had some
knowledge in mind when. In the fourth
scene Of the first act Of 1.-THE Merchant

VIEW YORK. Aug. ls.-The latest
fashionable bag Of tricks is bag Of
beads. Marie Lanvin Is the Partisan
courtouriere who has spilled the beads
and scattered them recklessly all over
the fall frocks. frills and furbclows.
In the windows Of two of the smart
est hat shops on Fifth avenue every
single one Of the new fail models had
q garnishment Of beads as its sole
velvet shapes have a fiat bead trim
ming either set on or else beaded right
on the hat surface itself. In the latter
class is a sprawling sort Of an octopus
design done in a single row Of steel
beads.
Another has a tiny humming bird Of
feathers perchad on a nest shaped
medallion of variegatcd bead eggs. Just
as q suggestion anent this <ygy Idea
it seems to me a cunning little gold Ash
nesting on a bunch Of bead roe could
be . heap more realistic and effectively
reproduced, in beadwork. Be that as It
may, single fat blossoms Of beadwork
cling barnacle-like to the broad black
velvet brims. On the jaunty little tur-
ban shapes bristling bato1s OF beads
stick out like the aulls upon the fret
full porcupine. Beaded tassels also
dangle dangerously. promising that
many an eye this fall though not now
beady will be beaded.
