plice is bordered with cherry braid
applied about an inch from the
edge.
Wide and Ample Skirt.
The skirt is wide and gathered
about the waist in ample folds.
There are no tucks or pleats and
the only trimming Is the cherry

ratine are suggested.
New Tailored Hat.
About this time of year one be-

hat to replace the shabby one that
made its first appearance in March.
Eliane. a clever milliner Of Paris.

coming walking hat that may be
copied at small cost. The straw
shape has narrow. upturned
brim. and the crown Is high but
not trying.
Two huge roppies Of silk velvet are
tackled flat to the crown like gor-

expenses increasing, her economy

summer hat. as chic little creation
as might have come from the Rue
de la PaiX. was made at home at
cost of only three francs. The green
grasses that 'twine in a wreath about
the crown, were not bought in a
shop. They were picked in the Bois.
And as soon as they fade. Germaine
picks more and renews the little hat
which Is always fresh.
But there must be some money

maine Is embroidering. Needlework
Is one of her accomplishments. For
several hours each day her brown
head. with the hair parted above a
smooth white brow, bends over the
soft cambrics and linens. Her hair
still hangs in two heavy braids. But
there are dreams beginning in the
depths of the long-lashed brown
eyes. BY the time that she is twenty,
her trousseu must be completed and
her armoire. or linen closet, stocked.
Then her dot of 10000 francs and her
skill as a housewife will constitute
her qualifications for a marriage.
The dot is the first tax on the bas de
laine. Germaine's family have been
thriftily accommodating it since her
first birthday anniversary. In due
time the parents of some young man
of the Renauds' acquaintance will
offer their son as a husband. When
all of the other details have been
satisfactorily arranged on either

And 1t matters not how many FRI

not buy until they find handker-

needed a yard and a half more of
silk to finish the dress they are
making for Gernaine. The silk was
bought at a special sale and the
clerk informs them that the piece

/ Dear MISS Laurie: am young
girl nineteen years Of age and
would like your advice. I am in
love with a young man twenty
one years old. He says he loves
me. but want to be sure. How
can / find out? He Is very nice
and has a good position. He lives
out Of town, but comes to the city
nearly every Sunday. l have an
idea that he likes some one else.
He Is not a bit jealous and wants
me to go out and have a good
time with the other boys.

to marry him. Angela B?

however, and there is no reason why
you should not believe him unless
you find some truth In your sus-
pIcions.
am glad to notice one young
man who Ia sensible enough to want
his paticular girl friend to have a
voting herself to him entirely. 1t
seems to me that nearly every let
ter l get from a girl makes the COM
plant that her boy friend Is SO
Jealous that he wouldn't let her 80
with other boys. Such a one as
your friend is rather rare, Angela
B.. 80 believe in him just as long as
you can.
Dear Miss: met girl a short
time ago who came from another
city. only went out with her
twice, and from the way we both
acted 1t was apparent our short
courtship resulted into a love af-
fair. ! am inclined to believe that
II asked her to marry me she
would consent. Owing to the fact
that I have only seen her twice I
thought 1t advisable to find out
the proper course to be pursued.
l am nearly twenty-four years
old and am making $21 a week.
My parents object to, my marry
ing at this time. though they
have no fault to find with the
girl. who has returned to her
home city.
How surprised the girl would be If
you asked her to marry you after
such a short acquaintance. l think
the better plan would be for YOU 10
open correspondence with her at
answers how she feels about con-
tinuing the acquaintance. Perhaps.
after you have corresponded for
several months, she will have given
you sufficient encouragement for you
TO ask her to become your wife.
Is there any chance for your pro-
motion? Remember that you are
making only about $1,000 year.
and that is not considered enough
for the average couple. believe
that you should wait until you are
making $1,000 at least. Even that
Is an exceedingly low amount to
support two people in these days of
the high cost of living.
Dear Annie Laurie: l am thir-
teen years old. ! have two girl
friends just my age, and they
often invite me to go out with
them. They take walks and go
downtown to the theater or mo-
ton pictures. My parents seldom
