WOMAN AND THE HOME
Fact, Fashion and Fancy Calculated to
Interest York County Women.

Interest York County Women.
Dress your character, not your
figure, Is the advice Of a famous
actress-and rather surprising this ad-
vice seems at first hearing. But think
it over well and the excellence Of the
idea will appeal to you. Every wom-
an has a certain individuality Of her
own-a temperament, II you will
that makes her a little, or perhaps a
good deal, different from all other
women. It Is this individuality-this
temperament-that women should
dress up to, according to the actress,
in order to make the personality more
marked and convincing. But an in
stinctive carrying out Of this advice
with no heed to the promptings OF
reason may result in disaster. For ex-
ample, there Is always the woman who
weighs 200 pounds or thereabouts, but
whose personality is distinctly kitten
ish. Is she to dress her character or
her figure? There is also the very
little woman who ought to belong to
the cuddly, appealing class, who yearns
to be impressive and stately. If she in
sists upon wearing the garments OF
the grenadier woman she may spoil
her chances Of being fascinatingly
charming.

THE ETERNAL
FEMININE
By Ellen Addir
Does Beauty Bring Happiness to a Woman?

loved for herself alone. She attracts cas-
lily. OF course. but then attraction Is a
ieeting AFFAIR unless there is something
very strong and permanent behind to
hold. And that's where the pretty girl
too often fails. She has been imbued
with the Idea that her prettiness is going
to carry her triumphantly through life,
OF the qualities which the plain girl has
long since decided that she had better
cultivate II she is going to make any
sort of success in her life"
This question of the relation between
beauty and happiness admits of many
conclusions. Many of the most beautiful
women In the world have had lives so
filled with tragedy that in comparison
the plain women are lucky. Mary, Queen
of scots, for instance, was one of the
lovellest of women, yet at the same time
a most unhappy lady. The last culminat-
ing act in the tragedy of her wonderful
career was really due to the misfortune
of her beauty. For that self-same beauty
had aroused the jealousy of Queen Eliza
beth.
Queen Mary's beautiful ladies-n-wait-
ing, those exquisite ladies of high degree
known as the Four Marys, had no very
happy lives, either. One, of them perished
on the sc8ffoid, and in the old Scotch song
she bewails her fatal gift of beauty:
oh happy happy is the maid that's born of
1t was my dlmpilng. rosy checks have proved
tho curse OF me.
There is however, reverse side to the
picture. Beauty rightly used is won

THE real advantage about the spring
i or summer evening gown is the fact
that 1t must not necessarily be strictly
formal in line. color or trimming The
woman who thinks Of spending her sum-
mer at the seashore at one of the large
and fashionable hotels, will find In the
gown shown here one of the most useful
OF frocks. 1t is, of course, an evening
gown, but It is the kind of a gown which
will wear well, and. being black, will
be suitable for any occasion, Pastel
shades are still popular. but the unchal-
lenged fitness OF black for dancing cards
or simply a stroll along the boardwalk,
makes It always fashionable.
This gown has also a youthfulness of
line which bellies the sombre color. The
extremely bouffant skirt and the very
decollete bodice is most becoming to the
young matron. The outer gown is an
elaborate creation Of black tulle The
bodice is made of loose blouse Of tulle,
edged with straps Of Jet beading. The

TN SPITE Of all adverse criticism and
i contrary opinion on the subject. the
average woman is possessed of very
strong desire to be beautiful For beauty
has for long been regarded as woman's
most potent weapon. And yet II Is open
TO doubt whether beauty really brings
much happiness to woman. Assuredly
Il brings her great deal Of worry and
trouble It's just possible, however that
abe enjoys that particular brand of worry.
''The pretty woman always will have
lovers" declared an authority on the sub
ject recently, "even though she be dull
and insipid to degree. For beauty al
ways will charm. Women really were
meant to be beautiful. always feel
very sorry for the homely woman, for
she will have many dsappolntments in
this world"
There are many people. however, who
hold contrary opinion to this. Two
men were discussing the question, and
the more worluly wise declared that
beauty was more of a burden than any
thing else to woman. The woman who
is beautiful" said he emphatically, has
n very great deal to contend with. I'm
less she is remarkably level-headed. she
has many temptations and many chances
to get into really serious trouble, chances
which never come to her palmer sisters.
Men will always run after pretty wom-
an. and not always with the beat inten-
tions. either. A certain class of men can
not resist a pretty face and must always
be Matching UP schemes and creating
more or less sentimental situations which
are entirely insncere and meaningless"

pretty girl has quite as many disappoint-
ments as the plain grl-sometlmes more.

replied. What are you thinking about
now?"
I'm thinking about Frisky Cottontail, ="

seen him for the longest time! Not since
early in the spring. 1 wonder what he is
doing all this time? He used to come to
see us often"
Better look him up" suggested Mrs.
Reddy; maybe something has happened
10 him. He might need help
So. without any more talking, Reddy
set out in search of his friend. Now, of
course Reddy and Frisky Cottontail were
not related at all, but they had lived near
each other in the big woods for many
day. And they had become very good
friends. Most woods creatures who are
not natural enemies are very friendly.

exception to the rule.
As fast as his little feet would carry
him, Reddy ran toward Friskys home
But not a sign of either Frisky or his
little mate did he see. They surely must
be in their nest" Reddy told himself,
otherwise they would be running about
near by" He went clear up TO the nest
in the hollow of the old stump and ran
around on the inside, but no cottontails
did he find. Nor, what was stranger still,
could he see any sign of their having
been there lately.
Finally he gave up and came outdoors
again surely they must have moved
he said to himself thoughtfully, though
why they would leave such a nice home
as this, can't imagine"
He slipped into the shadow of the old
log, determined to wait and see If he
could get any news of Frisky and his
doings,
Presently there was a soft whir in the
air and Billy Robin darted down right in |
