The Bjooest Mistake

The girl who is always afraid that
she has made a mistake, is the one
who can least d%epend'on her own judy
ment. The attitude of questioning ev-
cry step we take, and wishing we had
done something different, o renders
us incapable of wisely directing our
actions. The biggest mistake of all is
to be constantly accusing ourselves of
having made a mistake.-Girl's Com

Instead of putting your square patch
pockets on your new satin frOck al
perfectly symmetrical right angles, try
applying them in diamond shape. Sew
only the two bottom sides of the
square to the frock, and button thu
uppermost point to the frock, so that
the result is a pocket with practically
two openings. 1t is surprising what an
unusual effect this gives to a frock, es.
pecially if fur buttons on the pockets

needs some added ~laurels to his
crown before he can command a bat
tie with Jess Willard for the heavy
weight championship.
With this idea in mind, Fulton has
been signed to fight twenty rounds
Jan. % at New Orleans with Perky
Flynn. Porky is not a champion, or
even a possibility, but he is a fine
trial horse for aspiring young men
and can furnish plenty of tough OPP
position. Should Fulton defeat him
decisively the stock of the challenger
will be boosted considerably and he
will be in better position to talk OF a
match with Willard.
1t is pretty well recognized now
that the main reason Fulton was re-
fused a chance at Willard in New
Orleans early in March was because
he lacks a record and would not have
been a good drawing card for the pro-
