Farmer Browns Boy sat perfectly still fr
his hiding place on the other side Of the
pond. He had seen Buster Bear cover
himself with mud, and he knew why he
did it. 1t was for the same reason thai
he had covered his own face and neck
with mud
We've got a fellow feeling he
chuckled, but he took care it should be a
silent inside chuckle. 1t was the first
chance he ever had had to watch Buster
Bear, and he meant to make the most OF
1t. The mud on his face and neck was
but he didn't dare move to wash 1t off
or put more on. He was afraid OF
frightening Buster Bear.
The Jolly Little Sunbeams were very
bright and warm. In fact, they were hot.
AS Buster Bear dozed they dried the

uncomfortable. He looked at his coat and

never get it off until 1t wears off. The
thing for me to do is to take bath. The
water will feel good anyway"
So Buster Bear got to his feet lazily
and waded out into the water. First he
washed his face until he had got off all
the mud and the honey as we'll. Then
he waded out until the water became so
deep that he was forced to swim. Now,
Buster Bear likes an occasional swim.
He enjoys 1t just as much as any small
boy. He likes to paddle about, and this is
just what h edid now. He swan out al
most to the middle of PNddys pond. Just
then wandering Little Breeze danced out
from the other shore and tickled Busters
nose. By this time all the honey had
been washed away, and Busters nose
was ready to do it's duty. Just out of
habit he shifted when that Merry Little
Breeze tickled his nose A suspicion look
flashed into his eyes. He shifted again.
There was no doubt about it, that Merry
Little Breeze was bringing him the dread
ed man-smell! 1t was bringing him the
smell Of Farmer Browns Boy!
Like flash, Buster turned and started
for the shore. This was no place for him
He headed for the nearest place, and this
happened to be the rushes in which Paddy
the Beaver and the Quack family were
hiding. Paddy saw him coming and dived
to get out of the way. The Quack fam
lily couldn't get out Of the way so easily
They started to swim, but there wasn't

Costuming the very young woman
Is real art. Training in the ehtics
of dress might very wisely and well
be taught in school, beginning with
perhaps the eighth grade in grammar
school and continuing on through high
school and college. Girls should be
taught to study their figures as related
to a garment line, to study the blend
ing and harmonizing of colors, etc The
girl whose mother dresses smartly and
in good taste perhaps does not need
outside training: but many mothers do
net possess this taste.

seems to have been able to achieve a
maximum of beauty in the bullion fab
RIGS that the manufacturers have been
turning out for two years. The un-
wieldy textures of the past whose stiff
ness was their merit, have been aban-
doned, and in their place have come
fabrics which, although made of silver
and gold thread. have the suppleness of
chiffon and satin.
This is a supreme advantage to the
dressmakers. for they are enabled to
use these costly fabrics in the making
of the most modern frocks at price
that satisfies their rental
1t is true that the dressmakers them
selves have to pay goodly sum OF
money for such of these bullion fabrics
as they use but there never was time
when they did not prefer to deal with
costliness rather than cheapness.
The effect is better and the outcome
is gratifying, il the customer is the
kind that all dressmakers delight IN
one who pays high. buys OFTEN ana de-
tests cheapness herself.
Using Thin Silver Lace.
There is no diminution in the popu-
larity. of that thin silver gauze that
was ushered in for dancing frocks at
time when transparent overskirts. held
out with cerclettes and ornamented
with roses a la Versailles, came into
first fashion.
1t has grown SO soft and pliable that
II is we'll considered for wedding gowns
draped with tulle or chiffon, and yet
there is strong feeling among many
of the best designers that. after all,
the modern weave of bullion lace is
more suitable for summer than cloth of
silver.
II is now manufactured in bold pat
tern with an open mesh that gives it an
effect of lightness and GOODNESS much
desired in midsummer. These broad
spaces in the pattern of the lace give
the artistic dreSsmaker chance to use
up the colored tulles that France has
ser her heart upon.
The two go we'll together. and when
dcftly mingled the tulle has the ap-
pearance of being eXquisitely embroid-
cred in silver howers-an effect which,
IL real would cost both the dressmaker
and the wearer a pretty penny.
Prefer Blue Tulle.
The Americans have taken the French
lead of preferring one of those new
tones of blue in tulle, to be used with
silver lace. The sketch today shows a
gown that is built up of turquoise blue
tulle. with silver lace that has cob
web for it's mode.
