THE HAPPINESS OF AGE

It is not for youth alone that the great parent of creation hath pro- vided. Happiness is found with the purring cat no less than with the Tlayful kitten; in the armchair of doZing age as well as in either the sprightliness of the dance or the ani- nation of the chase. To novelty, to acuteness of sensation, to hope to ardor or pursuit, succeeds what IS in no inconsiderable degree, an equi- Nalent for them all-perception of ease. Herein is the exact differ ence between the young and old The young are not happy but when en- toying pleasures: the old are happy when free from pain

BLUE SERGE WITH GRAY SATIN.

, say that II a man nowadays has but
two suits Of clothes one Of them Is a
blue serge: and this bids fair to be
true Of the women also. It's a very
dark blue world, Of q morning, these
days.
The one-piece gown OF this ubiqui-
tous fabric is moro worn than ever.
Paris has sent us an unusual number of
these practical garments. and her little
ways of touching them with her own
individuality are amusing and interest
ing. Worsted embroidery is a favorite
form. and worsted fringe in royal pur-
pie adorned a model from q we'll known

Jackets. though 1 am told that the
smartest in Paris are practically with
upon the original uniform. Dark blue
taffeta Is seen in bands and dark plaids
are introduced discreetly for those who
like them.
Black satin with blue serge has had
almost too great vogue. And yet the
combination Of the two materials Is 80
good that we should welcome the orig
inal suggestion of today's sketch. Here
the vest, with its high straight collar
and the cuffs are Of smoked-pearl gray
satin. and the effect is admirable.
The whole gown is an excellent ex-
ample of the one-piece robe, which
looks utterly simple but shows its aris-
tocratic parentage in its difficult cut.
The skirt has a pointed yoke in front,
and this yoke is straight in the back,

One does not require the spirit Of
prophecy to see that only through the
reduction Of the wheat acreage and
the increased production Of feed
grains, corn, alfalfa and pastures will
the North Dakota farmer be enabled
to make his greatest profits. Diversi'
1cation is particularly necessary in
this state. Methods Of agriculture in
the less humid areas must be such as
