When Woman, Lovely Woman, Loves Clothes Instinctively and Not as an Art
By DOLLY DALRYMPLE

WINERY now and then some one
 hears repeated the ancient plati- ~ tude that women dress for women. We'll, nobody denies it; so they do; so they are compelled to do, because of many things.
 For one reason woman knows the vital importance of dress, to the charm and even efficiency of her sex; also the moral effect that careless or careful dressing exerts upon the mentality of woman kind she realizes that her costuming is of grave importance to herself and her sex.
 A we'll dressed woman is a credit not only to herself, but to the community in which she resides; an i'll dressed wom- an a discredit.
 An elegantly dressed woman suggests personal affluence and community wealth; a woman of slovenly appearance or threadbare garments at once loses class prestige. because she discredits self-respecting classes.
 It is not that women so greatly care what other women wear. as it is, that 
 should measure up to a fixed standard; individually she may rise above it by extreme elegance of costuming or fall below it through poverty or carelessness; but If she dresses badly she knows the price she must pay
 Economic costuming, women will ac- cept and even approve when they know there is a reason for it. and if the wearer has other qualities that will over balance the detail of mere dress; wom en's clubs and patriotic societies have done much to eliminate false standards of dress; women have learned that the most simply attired woman may be in- tellectual. the most plainly gowned won- an descended from a long line of emil nent statesmen and military heroes whose deeds cast mantle of glory over her unpretentious wearing apparel but the woman poorest in this worlds goods may In these days of well-designed pat terms possess well-cut clothes and wear them with grace and to keep require- ments, woman must rise or accept the sighting contempt of her sex
 Thus women do dress for women, be- cause they must, and also because they know if they dress well the critical appreciation of experts In the art of costuming will be in their favor.
 But a woman takes most pleasure in her clothes, when she dresses for the man she loves; then she has a keener interest In what she wears; then there comes to her an instinctive sense of the beautiful that adornment of herself for other women meyer knows; all sorts of pretty ideas flock to her like doves when she is in love; she has become shrine of love, before which worshiper offers de- votion; hence, the shrine must be adorned according to her own happy in spiration; instinctively she pins rose where it will be most effective in en- hancing her charms; she veils her throat in filmy lace and she endeavors to ex- press, and usually does express. her per- sonality through her pretty garments

Madame Steinheil, Once
 Tried on Murder Charge,
 Marries English Nobleman

London, June 26.--Madame de Serignac was married today in the Wesleyan church at Roupell Park, to Lord Abinger.
 It was made known by the London newspapers recently that Madame de Serignac was none other than Madame Steinheil, whose trial in Paris in 1909 for the murder of her husband, an artist, and of her stepmother, attracted interna- tional attention. Madame Steinheil de- clared the murder had been committed by masked men and was acquitted after a long trial.

IT Honey, de Way uv de Transgressor is whar de Mo- toring is best! Yassum.

She knows that in man who loves her she has a sympathetic, rather than a critical or even an informed observer, so she glows with spiritual radiance beautifyng itself, which is enhanced by every instinct for adornment that affec- ton can suggest.
 A woman may be married; she may be unmarried; but certainly if she is in love. her dress will show it-for the husband for the sweetheart-and then, and then only will she take complete joy in the wearing of beautiful clothes.

British KINGS Armory.

King George has many almost price

in romantic interest with the small
armory of swords and daggers present.

princes and mobiles of India, as tokens

London Tit-Bits.

tribute TO the great lesson we have

the loyalty which the native princes
OF India have so magnificently demon

WRONG IDEA ABOUT ECLIPSE

The Manchester Guardian, in Eng

following story: Not long ago. when,
in the usual order of events there was
an eclipse Of the moon-visible at
Greenwich man whose work
brought him daily into Manchester
was seen going home about two hours
earlier than usual. Upon being asked
by one of his train companions TO ac-
count for the sudden break in his rou-
tine. he replied that he had TO be back
I'm the city before nine o'clock, because
he had read in his morning paper that
the eclipse of the moon would be Wis
ible from Albert Square from about
that time onward, and he was not go
ing to miss the opportunity, us it was
n fine night. He lived in the country
The story recalls the famous incident
connected with Dean Swift, when his
word was law in Dublin, some two
hundred years ago. The dean had an
nounced that there would be an eclipse
of the sun on a certain day. at GER
tain time, visible from his house..
Some time before the appointed hour,
large crowds of people flocked from
all parts of the city and congregated
around the deans house, much to his
annoyance. So much, indeed, did it
trouble him, that he finally sent out
word to the waiting multitude that the
eclipse had been postponed, and would
not take place for some time. The
people at once returned to their homes,
disappointed, but unquestioning.-

SAVE AMERICAS FOOD.

The appeal to the people of America
and the hotels and restaurants to
save food, issued by President Wilson,
is not a mere sentimental explosion.
There is much behind it. and it is go
ing to be realized in a rather heroic
way unless this appeal is needed.
There are good many mouths to
feed within the boundaries of the
United States, and when to these are
added the hungry ones in so many of
he war-stricken countries of Europe.
where production is next to nothing,
the force of the Presidents appeal
may be realized without any over
draft on the most diffident intellect.
The America people have not paid
heed to the warnings of the food adj
ministration to the extent necessary,
else this new call to duty would not
have been issued. A careful survey
has proven that the war is not real
ized in all its terror over here, where
plenty has held sway for so many
years. The idea of doing without
every little thing we have been wont
to tickle our palates with for so long
has not settled down over our cos
mos and become integral with our
ego. We still insist on doing about
as we have done. eating much the
same fare, despite the soaring prices,
an din all other ways demonstrating
that the war to us is sort of a
nebula too far away to be of any i'm
mediate concern.

ELIMINATE WASTE.

Lord Northcliffe, representative of
Great Britain in this country, empha-
sizes on all occasions the overshadow

President Wilson. with equal ardor
emphasizes the need for conservation
in order that we may have something
TO transport. while at the same time
urging the speeding up of construc-
ton at all the shipyards to the
utmost.
Our country is blessed with an
abundance of food supplies, says
President Wilson, and if our people

The quantities required for the main
tenance of health and strength, and
eliminating waste, we may be able TO
satisfy all our home needs with
enough to spare to support our AL
lies. That is one of our foremost
obligations, he says, for if We are to
maintain their constancy in this strug-
gle we must maintain their health
and strength. We must help to main
tain their civil population, as well as
their armies, and in order to do this
we must make some sacrifices, and in
no direction can sacrifice and devotion
be shown more than by each home
and public eating place pledging its
support to the food administration
and complying with its requests.
