so interested in watching King Eagle

catch that fish. He had just taken it
for granted that King Eagle would

Buster Bears Wish Comes

Buster Bear had had no luck at all
in either his fishing or his wishing. He
rather felt that this was a contrary
day, which means a day in which every
thing goes just the wrong way. II
didn't occur to him that the contrari-
ness was in him. which it was. If he
hadn't persisted in keeping on fishing
when 1t was perfectly clear that there
were no fish in the little pools of the
Laughing Brook he might have found
something else to eat and had a pleas
ant, comfortable morning instead of
one disappointment after another
which had neither filed his stomach

stopped to rest and grumble to his
hearts content.

Costuming the woman Of middle age
Of figure than years. For the woman
of mature years who, however. in
cIines to favor gowns that through
their material and style line express
a certain dignity, the soft satins now
winning a strong popularity and fou-
lards. an admirable summer silk, are
excellent selections. Soft draperies are
to be selected as against a ''bouffant'
arrangement. and princess and redin-
cote lines are almost uniformly be-
coming
Quite the smartest and newest frocks
offered at the present time are those
made of serge, gabardine or trlcot
combined with soft taffeta. satin and
silk, or wool marquisette, and featured
as coat dresses. All of the fabrics
mentioned except marqusette have
been many times referred to as fall
favorites. but marquisette as COM
bination for the sturdy wool weaves
is quite new, and the frocks developed
with this material as an important
part of them are extremely cookbook
ing. The use of a transparent ma
terial such as marquisette with one
of the heavy fabrics makes a gown
which is entirely desirable for pres
ent as well as early fall wear:
Marquisette may be used for the
sleeves and bodice of a frock. or 1t
may fashion a long polonaise dra-
perry or overskirt, appearing again in
the sleeves of the dress, other parts
of which are of serge or gabardine.
Fur and embroidery, or braid. are
favorite trimmings. Wide bands of
one of the fiat furs, such as moleskin,
Hudson seal. etc. may. trim the bot
tom of the skirt or drapery, or mar
row inch-wide bands may be used, two
or three in a row. Collar and sleeves
are similarly finished, the fur, however,
forming usually only the back of the
collar If the gown Is meant for be-
tween sea sons wear, when the weather
Is too warm to encourage covering
the neck with fur or other collar.
The sketch presented herewith offers
an excellent suggestion for frock to
be worn by a woman of mature years.
The length of line which is a pro-
nounced feature of the gown expresses
both dignity and extreme smartness.
Gabardine and marouisette are the
materials employed. and the question OF
color is one that may be decided ac-
cording to the individual taste. Navy
is featured in the majority of early
fall models. A trimming Of bead en-
broidery is used on the gown.

leaves on a white foundation. There
are polka dot blouses In the same color,
but they have not met with enough
approval to give them a chance for
popularity.
Far the better way to obtain the ef-
feet desired is to use bits of blue ma
terial against white material in any
striking or ingenious way that wom-
an may like.
White organdy has been used for
blouses. with e-and-white striped

neglige fashion which is carried out
in sleeping robes.
White handkerchief linen or any
kind of muslin is preferred, however,
to organdy, although the former was
heaped on every counter in the land
as soon as April came. The women
who have tried 1t out are able to judge
by this time whether 1t has proved
satisfactory. but as rule expert
opinion goes against 1t. reserving 1t
for elaborate collars and cuffs.

NEW YORK, July 25.-The colored
blouse has been put forward for year
by every designer who wanted to play
with color and who found a duh mar
ket for the all-white waist, except for
usage with a severely tailored suit
Several of these new blouses are mod
eled on exaggerated lines. when com
pared with those that we have steadily
worn for two decades at least.
True, the mannish style is as much
sought after as ever. and has not re-
linquished it's place to any newcomer
but women have taken II into their
heads that different blouses are needed
for different hours, and in this the dress
designers have helped them with all
the ingenuity at their command.
Adopting the New Collar.
The experts in costumery believe that
new blouses were invented because of
those amazing renaissance collars that
have been insisted upon by the French
designers for quite some months.
1t is not possible to wear such a COL
lar under an ordinary coat. and there
fore the extraordinary blouse has been
invented to go with the separate skirt,
or with a plain one that merely sug-
gests it's relationship in color to the
blouse. Sometimes it matches it in
fabric, but not always.
There are blouses In this day OF in
genuity which are made of white or
CANDY with light blue touch brought
out in a splashing way. in ribbon or in
a fine quality of blue linen or silk mus
lin.
