 The wife lets the husband follow his own will, while she walks apart in what concerns her inner life.

 He would rather go alone, and seeing him don his hat and coat. the wife asks where he is going and receives subtlely the enlightening answer:

 There is no such blow to personal vanity as failure to succeed when we waive all questions of reasonableness of what we ask or the expediency of what we beg, and just come down to the chld's attituda Of ''coaxing,' in the hope that just be- cause we want something so very very much, somebody else will let us have our way.
 When we are refused after making this personal plea, the hurt to our feelings is wholly out of proportion to the insignifi- canoe of the request refused.
 The refusing person may congratulate himself that he has established a reputa- : ton for firmness: that those most close ly associated with him have been taught that from henceforth, now and forever.

I while the show windows were artistically decorated, thus making an attractive background for many of the handsom-
 est gowns and suits and wraps that were displayed.
 All the latest styles fn blouses, lin- gerie. gowns, suits coats, sweaters, golf skirts and children's attire, were to be seen and the fact that MT Ben N. Levy,
 the popular head of the '.ready-to-wear" department again had access to the east ern markets, where he displayed his
 unusually beautiful taste in the selection of the goods, is sufficient guarantee to Birminghams fashionable world that the Louis Saks styles are entirely up-to-date and modish
 The very gamut of fashion seems to have been run in the 1915 models and while there is note of conventionality which marks everything, still the styles are so varied and so numerous that every body can be better pleased than ever be- fore.
 During the premier day of Fashion Week the large clientele which the Louis Saks store is always sure of thronged the ''ready-to-wear" department and many handsome models were on display
 One of the handsomest models shown in the ready-to-wear" styles was a black net evening gown over black tulle The full skirt was gathered into deep taffeta flounce, shaped in circular style and the corsage was charmingly draped showing touch of white tulle and a bit of Belgian blue velvet at the top of the high girde, which was of black velvet making an attractive finish to a stunning creation.
 A tailor made" was of navy blue gabardine, the skirt cut wide and cir cuar The high waisted coat was loose and hung gracefully from the belt the lower edges being handsomely embroid- cred in black, with a touch of silver The lining, collar and cuffs were of broad striped black and white silk and the but tons followed out the black and white idea
 A stunning lingerie gown was of white net. with overdess of white embroidered net and batiste. Tiny little frills of net on the underswirt were seen through the diaphanous overdress and the corsage beautifully modelled, was finished at the waistnne with pale pink and pale blue satin ribbon.
 very 'French-y,'' with it's touch of Bel gian blue girdle embroidered in dainty pink roses. The lower edge of the skirt had a narrow black fringe on it as d finish. and the petticoat a broad band of black velvet. while the corsage was daintily finished with hand embroidered batiste collars and cuffs.
 Golf skirts of the new ..golfine" were vivid and beautiful in green, Belgian blue and rose while the more sedate colors and whites were also shown.
 Stunning bouses in "Georgette" crepes were very much admired, one of the piettiest being of white, hand enbroi- dered with a touch of Venice lace. An other was of flesh-colored crepe with trailing vines embroidered in it. while an entre deux of Poine de Venice was used in the front.

SUPPOSE YOU TRY BEING
 WISE BY JUST BEING FOOLISH
By DOLLY DALRyNp.E

Don't you hate man or woman who cannot be ''coaxed''?
 Probably if you stopped to think about it, the original divorce germ, the root of the term ''incompatibility of temper" IS just the plain old fashioned stubborn re- fusal to be 'coaxed.'
 About the momentous things of life the law is required in the matter of invoking or arguing, but in the little every day is- sues there is nothing to be used except ''coaxing" to do the work.
 A man who cannot be cajoled into doing the things. that he doesn't want to do merely because he has taken stand and thinks he ought to live up to it. may be mighty grand man to stand by a gun iil battle, but he must be very trying to live with.
