All at once a liking for little
boleros is making itself felt in the
specially shops that deal in waists,
and in the departments of the stores
that deal in everything women want
or imagine they want. And the sup
ply of small jackets that has sprung
into evidence includes those made of
lace, of net, of sheer fabrics, of silk
and of yarns.
A little jacket of batiste is shown
in the picture. 1t is designed to be
worn over a light-colored evening
gown or afternoon gown, but for the
purpose Of bringing out the pattern it

dress. 1t fits the figure rather snugly.

Lovemakina Misunderstood.

No matter where they were. he made
love to her Their engagement had
lasted for several weeks, but he could
scarce bear to wait for comparative
privacy to whisper his devotion and
to ask for VOWS OF constancy. And so
it was that he murmured sweet some
things across the little glass-topped
table in the drug store where they
were consuming cooling beverages
and messes. He looked deep into her
sparkling eyes. You are all mine!"
he breathed. And then doubt seemed
to come over him, and he whispered
anxiously: Gould you bear to think of
another?" "Oh, darling!" she whis-
pered, blushing little. 1--we already
had two. But don't think one more
fruit sundae would hurt me. You're
so thoughtful, dear-and so extrave

A pretty turban of plush is shown
with broad bow of wide striped rib
bon poised at the back. It appears to
be tied over an odd extension of the
crown, covered with the plush, which
supports it and adds an entirely new
feature to the shape. A moire rib
bon is used. having a dark and a light
stripe. There are many color combi-
nations that will be fine for a copy of
this model
With all this collection of varied
styles and influences striving to make
themselves felt, the opportunity for
the individual who knows what to
choose for her own particular style
was never SO good. In millinery the
display of pleasing hats is creditable
to the many Independent designers
who have created them. There is moth
ing startling in the two hats shown
here, and nothing freakish- They rep
resent legitimate types Of real mil
linery, with novelty in the handling OF
trimmings to further commend them

It is interesting 20 recall that the

or shfpowner, but after a humble cot

DIDN'T IMPRESS HIM MUCH
But Listener Was Ready to Admit
That He Heard the Sermon
Under Difficulties.

A new minister in a rural district
who wished to make the acquaintance
of the members of his congregation,
and also to discover whether they
were pleased with his discourses, met
an old farmer whose face he recog-
nized as one who had attended the
church the previous Sunday, and, stop
ping him, said:
Mr.. Brown, how did you like my
sermon last Sunday?''
well, parson, replied the old man,
you see, 1 didn't have fair chance
to judge. Right in front of me was
old Miss Smith and the rest of that
gang with their mouths wide open just
a swallerin' down all the best of your
sermon; n what reached me, parson,
was purity poor stuff, purity poor stuff"

Inc GODDESS OF Fashion appears TO
be taking a vacation, or perhaps she
has abdicated; at any rate she is is
suing few edicts. We do not hear
thou shalt or thou shalt not" and
are left to do as we please, with a
world Of new designs in hats and
gowns to choose from They include
many beautiful things
In the early season there was
universal vogue for the black velvet
hat. 1t is a becoming thing, this
black velvet hat, but when ninety-nine
out of a hundred women wear it it
becomes monotOnous. The demand
has swung away to black hats in
plush and velours and to the dark col
ors that look SO well with the metal
trimmings and handsome furs and
feathers.
Two hats are pictured here which
are so good in shape and in design
and in every particular that they may
be chosen with the comforting con-
Yiction that there is nothing better.
One is a moderately wide-brimmed
model, with lines lifting little at the
front and a little more at the back.
Its small, round crown is concealed by
three soft haIf-plumes mounted over
it They are topped by one of those
odd steel ornaments mounted on a
stem, which look like nothing on the
earth or in the air above it. Perhaps
this is part of their fascination.
A hat of this kind must be deveI-
oped in materials of excellent quality
and will be beautiful in dark-coIored
velvet with plumes in shades OF the
same color, or in black.

Good Angel of the Aviators.

There is a French woman who hides
her identity, who for months, has been
sending generous contributions Of
money through LIE Figaro of Paris
to the French army, and most partic-
ularly to the aviation corps.
For some time no more money was
forthcoming, but a few days ago the
Figaro received this letter from her:
My savings are all gone, and am
grieved to the heart at not being able
to help our beloved soldiers any more,
especially our aviators. 1 wish above
all things that the airmen should be
warmly and comfortably clothed. But,
in spite Of everything, 1 have managed
to do a little more for them. Please
