TNHERE are mighty few women who
l. do not desire to possess dainty under
garments and the majority manage
somehow to have their desires fulfilled
either by making the garments at home
or by purchasing them in the shops, and
the undergarments which are displayed
ready to wear are truly remarkable for
the daintiness and eXquisiteness of their
make and material. very often excelling
anything that one could possibly concoct
at home.
There are many cohorts for the che
mise and quite as many for the en-
velope chemise, and there Is much to
be said in favor of both but today
have selected for you three of the new
est envelope chemises. All of these mod
els exemplify the mode which is at pres
ent prevalent to adhere to simple de-
signs, designated by many as tailored
underdress," but in my opinion this title
Is far too harsh to apply to these dainty
bits of wearing apparel
When one beholds the increased num-
Der of undergarments made of chiffon or
chiffon cloth, the fact must be recog-
nized that chiffon must give wear or the
women would not purchase them, espe-
cially in these times, when every one is

years of age. and considered good
looking by both sexes. l met young man
eighteen years of age. He Is in Uncle
Sam'B navy. 1t at party. and he
took me home and l introduced him to my
pa rents. My parents like him and we have
been going together for six months. He
expects TO leave for France soon. and has
asked me to marry him. love him and he
loves me My parents would not consent.
so we have decided to elope. Do you con-
slider this right?
No, little would-Be War Bride, do
not consider 1t right You are only
seventeen and the young man is only
eighteen Then. your parents have
very good reasons for opposing 1t. Be
engaged to him, by all means. IL you
love each other, but at your age 1t is
better to wait for a number of years
before marrying than to rush into 1t
as YOU would If you followed out your
designs. You will never regret listen
ing to your parents. They love you
tenderly and know what is best So be
brave, and make your fiance brave, and
write him bright, cheerful letters while
he's "over there" The little fancee

And I shall see him today. SO put

to pour. Mrs. Enrignt showed me my
place at one end of the long table in
the dining room. I sat there with
flushed cheeks. But I found 1t far less

College boys talked in groups. The
professors wives wandered aimlessly
