WOMEN NOT MOST GARRULOUS
Is an indictment of the
Sterner Sex.

We men are accustomed to deride
the garrulity Of women; yet l doubt
If any women under the sun could COM
pete in loquacity with pair or trio
or quartet of young men engaged in
the exchange of views on metaphysics,
literature or art. We two or three or
four spent ambrosial nights, Robert
NJ. Gray writes in the Atlantic. There
were no problems too knotty, no
reaches of hypothesis too vast for us
to attempt.
That was q time of life to remem-
ber, when the mind was growing like
corn in hot weather. 1t is pleasant
thought that all over the land there are
little bands Of youths doing as we did.
l get wind of one now and then-sone e
boy with all the fire and foolishness,
some girl with all the sensibility and
sentimentalities, by chance look or
word carries me back, as whiff Of IL
lacs or migronette can transport us
into our childhood.
He Is poor man who never was
foolish. 1t is appalling to think over
what he has missed. l am glad that
there was q time when l was omnis-
cient; that there was time when IN
opinion was attractive because 1t was
radical, and the miserable little vir-
tue Of prudence" was not a part of
my moral code. 1 think it makes me
more charitable toward youth.
Whether it does or not, there can be
no doubt that the surest corrective
and sweetener of life is vivid

look out of your eyes.
"Can't you take my word for it and

I'm in an intellectual quandary. For
the next three hours, or six, or how
ever long it takes, want my mind to

count on you. Is there anywhere
we have got to go? Or can we just
stay homer"
He didn't want to founder through
an emotional morass. And the as
sumption that she couldn't walk beside
him on the main path Of his life was
just and sensible. But it wasn't good
enough for Rose.
So the very next morning she strip
ped the cover off the first Of the law
books she had bought, and really went
to work. She bit down, angrily, the
yawns that blinded her eyes with tears;
she made desperate efforts to fog her
mind into graphing with the endless
succession Of meaningless pages
spread out before her, to find germ
Of meaning somewhere in it that would
bring the dead verbiage to life. She
was very secretive about it; developed
an almost morbid fear that Rodney
would discover what she was doing
and laugh his big laugh at her. She
resisted innumerable questions she
wanted to PROFOUND to him, from a
fear that they'd betray her secret.
She even forbore to ask him about
the case; it was The Case in her mind
the one she knew about.
She discovered in the newspaper,
one day, a column summary Of court
decisions that had been handed down;
and though The Case wasn't in it, she
kept, from that day forward, careful
watch, discovered where the legal news
was printed, and never overlooked
paragraph. And at last she found
it-just the bare statement: "Judg-
ment affirmed" Rodney, she knew,
had represented the appellant. He
was beaten.
For q moment the thing had bruised
her like blow. And then, all at once,
in the indrawing Of single breath,
she saw it differently. She saw she
couldn't help him out of his intellec-
tual quandaries-yet. But under the
discouragement and lassitude of de-
feat, couldn't she help him? She re-
membered how many times she had
gone to him for help like that, and,
most notably, during the three or four
days of an acute illness of her moth
er's, when she had been brought face
to face with the mOnstrOuS, incredible
possibility of losing her, how she had
clung to him, how his tenderness had
soothed and Quieted her.
He had never come to her like that.
She knew now it was a thing she had
unconsciOusly longed for. And to-
night she'd have a chance! There was
mounting excitement in her, as the
hours passed-a thrilling suspense.
For two hours that afternoon, she
listened for his latchkey, and when
at last she heard it, she stole down
the stairs. He Ridn't shout her name
from the hay, as he often did.
He didn't heI' her coming, and she
got look Il his face as he stood at
the table absently turning over some
mail that lay there. He looked tired,
she thought.

SILKS DEMANDED BY WOMEN
Are Widely Worn This Season In Spite
of High Prices Due to Variety
Of Causes.

There are many reasons why silks
are high priced this year, but there
is just one reason why silks are in de-
mand this year more than ever be-
fore-simply because women want to
wear silks.
The war has had something to do
with the shortage of silk, as it has
had with most everything else of late.
In the first place, expert labor is short.
Then, something happened to the CO.
coons in Turkey, and for some reason
there was shortage Of raw silk in
Italy, which, coupled with the in
creased demand, made things rather
difficult and, Of course, sent prices up.
Our little brOwn-Skinned neighborS of
the Pacific came to our rescue by see
ing in this situation a chance for their
own profit, and now we are getting
more silk from Japan than anywhere
else. Obviously, nothing happened to
the cocoons in the land Of chrysanthe-
NUNS.
And since Japanese silk possesses
very great artistic merits, even in the
cheaper grades, women have something
to be thankful for. japanese silks es-
pecially commend themselves to this
seasons fashions. They are soft and
supple without being slinky, a char.
acteristic which makes them especially
suitable to a season when skirts are
neither extremely full nor extremely
narrow.

Cured Of Borrowing.

"Well, I've found way to stop my
neighbors from borrowing" said a
young suburban matron gleefully.
"YOu see," she explained, 1--WE are not
near any store, and, of course, some
times one has to depend on a neighbor
in an emergency. But my particular
neighbor seemed to have such emerg-
encies nearly every day. And it was
usually vinegar that she wanted. Now
we are particular about our vinegar,
and get the best variety, and OF course
when Mrs Neighbor asked for vinegar
we gave her our best. But when she
returned it she sent very cheap
grade, which we were unable to use,
and were obliged to throw out.
"This was repeated so often that we
began to weary Of 1t, and suddenly a
bright idea struck me. l carefully
poured her cheap vinegar into bottle
and saved it. Next time she asked me
to lend her vinegar sent her own to
her. The cure worked. She has never
asked for another drop, and l sup

and lead gray and several shades of
tan have been noted in the develop
ment of these coat frocks.
The garment shown in the sketch is
made Of navy gaberdine, trimmed in
satin in a contrasting shade. Gold
colored satin might be used; red or a
lighter shade of blue would also be eff
fechve. The double row OF buttons
down the front may match either the
navy Of the frock proper or the trim
ming.
The double-strap belt extends
straight around the back, and the
wide tabs on either side Of the waist
in front conceal pockets. Pockets are
featured on nearly all tailored spring
and summer dresses, suits and coats.
AS will be noted, this garment
shows a rather straight Silhouette
that is, while q waistline is indicated
the skirt follows the natural lines of
the figure, and no exaggerated barrel
fare is evident.
The barrel skirt was largely scare
head style feature devised early to
stimulate somewhat tagging demand
for ready-to-wear garments. Few who
thought seriously of style development
paid much attention to it. Women still
cling to the straight-line garments, and
something very much more attractive
than the barrel skirt must make its
appearance before their popularity
waneS.
To make the coat frock sketched
five and a half yards Of material SO
inches wide will be required, with one
yard of contrasting color for collar,
cuffS. belt. etc.

CHAPTER VII.
A Ereudian Physician.

Roses arrival at the dinner-a little
late, to be sure, but not scandalously
created a mild sensation. None OF
the other guests were strangers, either,
on whom she could have the effect
of novelty. But when she came into
the drawing rOOm-in such wonder
full gown-put on tonight because she
felt somehow like especially pleasing
Rodney-when she came in, she re-
oxygenated the social atmosphere.
She was, in fact, stranger. Her
voice had q bead on it which reused
Il perfectly unreasoning physical ex-
citement-the kind of bead which, in
singing, makes all the difference be-
tween church choir and grand opera.
The glow they were accustomed to
in her eyes concentrated itself into
flashes, and the flush that so often,
and so adorably, suffused her face,
burned brighter now in her cheeks and
left the rest pale.
And these were true indices of the
changes that had taken place within
her. From sheer numb incredulity,
she had reacted to fine glow of in
dignation. She had found herself sud
denly feeling lighter, older, indescrib-
ably more confident. They shouldn't
suspect her humiliation or her hurt
Her husband, James Randolph re-
flected, had evidently either been max
ing love to her, or indulging in the civil
lied equivalent of beating her he was
curious to find out which. And, having
learned from his wife that Rose was
to sit beside him at the table, he
made up his mind that he would. A
physician of the Freudian school, train
ed to analyze peoples souls, he was
well equipped to find out, without
Roses knowledge.
He didn't attempt it, though, during
his first talk with her-confined him
self vigorously to the carefully sifted
chaff which does duty for polite con-

CHAPTER VIII.
Rodney Smiled.

The next day, Rose took two steps
toward making herself her husbands
intellectual companion.
From a university catalog she pick
ed out the names of half dozen ele-
mentary textbooks on law, and then
went to a bookstore and bought them.
She had taken her determination
during the endless waking hours of
the night: she was going to study law
study it with all her might!
The other step was to go and hear
Rodney's argument in court that day.
She was successful in slipping into the
rear of the courtroom-up on the
eighth floor of the Federal building
without attracting her husbands at
tentiOn; and for two hours and half
she listened, with mingled feelings, to
his argument. There was no use pre-
tending that she could follow her hus-
bands reasoning. Listening to it had
something the same effect upon her
as watching some enormous, COM
plicated, smooth-running mass of ma
chinery. She was conscious of the
power of it, though ignorant of what
made it go, and of what it was ac-
complishing.
The three stolid figures behind the
high mahogany bench seemed to be
following it attentively, though they
irritated her bitterly sometimes, by in
dulging in whispered conversations.
And, presently, he just stopped talk
ing and began stacking up his notes.
The oldest judge mumbled something,
everybody stood up, and the three stiff,
formidable figures filed out by a side
door. 1t was all over.
But nothing had happened!
Rose had expected to leave the
courtroom in the blissful knowledge
of Rodney's victory or the acceptance
of his defeat. In her surprise over the
failure Of this climax to materialize,
| she almost neglected to make her es-
cape before he discovered her there.
One practical advantage she had
| gained out Of what was, on the whole,
q rather unsatisfactory afternoon. When
she had gone home and changed into
the sort of frock she thought he'd like
and come downstairs in answer to his
| shouted greeting from the lower hall,
she didn't say, as otherwise she would
have done, sHow did it come out
Roddy? Did you win?'
In the light Of her newly acquired
knowledge she could see how question
| of that sort would irritate him. In
stead Of that, she said: "You dear old
boy, how dog-tired you must be! How
do you think II went? Do you thiAk
you impressed them? bet you did,"
And, not having been rubbed the
wrong way by a foolish question, he
held her off with both hands for q
moment, then Rugged her up and told
her she was a trump. II had a sort
of uneasy feeling" he confessed, that
after last night-the way 1 threw you
