Whereupon he shot a look at her
and observed that evidently he wasn't
as much Of a pioneer as he thought.
She did not rise to this cast, how
ever. Cali right" she said; admitting
that her ankles are serious and her
mind isn't, what is Joan going to do
about it,"
''It's easier to say what she's not to
do" he decided, after hesitating mo-

despise her ankles without disciplining
her mind. If she will take either
one of them seriously, or both for
that matter it's possible - she'll do
very WELL"
He could, no doubt, have continued
upon the theme indefinitely, but the
table turned the other way just then
and Rose took up an alleged conver-
sation with the man at her right which
lasted until they left the table, and
included such topics as indoor golf,
woman's suffrage, the new dances,
Bernard Shaw, Campanini, and the
political parties; with a perfectly
appropriate and final comment upon
each.
Rose didn't care. She was having a

derful time. No longer gazing, big
eyed like little Cinderella, at a pag-

No Barrels for Cotton Frocks.

For cotton frocks 1t is noticeable
that the majority follow the straight
line instead Of attempting the tonneau
idea. The best models all have the
narrow skirts; in one instance the
tunic effect is seen in a model of silver
embroidered crepe posed over mar
row satin foundation skirt. Many mod
els have the waist defined by narrow
ribbon belts with long sash ends hang

on each side can be introduced. The
ribbons are often crossed and re-
crossed about the ankle so that their
ends tie fully half way up to the knee.
To be sure, we are to wear longer
skirts this summer but the ribbon-
bound ankle is decidedly pretty when
skirts are short, for the ribbon breaks
the length of the stocking.
