There are some obligations-social
kindness extended, hospitality given,
and the like-which one can school
oneself to own without loss OF self
respect One can even accept finan-
cial help from a friend perhaps, under
some circumstances. For It Is OFTEN
an act of grace to take proffered
kindness.
But there are times when to ask
from certain quarters is unthinkable.

case of the Fenns. To Edgar Flower
ton, however, the need for more
money to complete his invention was
as compelling as the necessity OF car

heater as a sort of public utility

a hand in developing IL necessary. To
Ned, the end was the main thing TO
consider. The means to it was purely

To his sister, Edith Ferrol, the

not refuse the aid, was burning dls'

Once more the old problem of money
became a poignant torment to Edith
Ferrol. Added to the weight of the
debt to Fem was the certainty that
as soon as her husband discovered
where Ned had got the money there
would be an outburst from him.
Johns patience was already exhausted
as Edith well knew. 1t would not sur
prise her if, outraged at Ned's failure
to keep his promises, John sent him
out Of their home.

Sometimes we see a suit or dress
which has been presented by it's design
er without any attempt to depart from
good, accepted standards of style in it's
construction. The charm of such de-
sign lies in other things than original
ity or startling novelty. 1t is embodied
in the best use of all the means at
hand to make perfect garment of its
kind. A lovely example of this con-
servative and elegant designing is
shown in the suit of embroidered jer
sey-made for wear in midsummer
pictured here. 1t is in French gray
with embroidery in white and will
please every discerning woman.
There is nothing to say of it's design
that is not told by the picture. The
skirt and coat are both cut on the
simplest lines and embellished with
wide band of embroidery. The belt,
Of the material, is narrower than is
usual in this seasons suits and finished
with a small, prim bow at the front
and the fastening Of the coat at the
bust and waiStline is managed clever
ly. 1t is a formal suit to be developed

America Fills the Need.

For years it has been the custom fo1
American manufacturers to obtain
each season large number of Paris
garments and readapt them to the
needs of American women. Paris has
always taken the lead in suggesting
possible styles. But the war has
brought American designs to the fore,
although 1t has by no means served to
discourage Paris artists. Now many
garments wholly American are being
shown, and the fact has been clearly
proved this country need never in
future play second fiddle. The fact
that fabrics and trimmings are scarce
and that wool, especially, must be con-
served has probably worked to the ad-
vantage Of American designers and
would-be designers. For simplicity
has been the rule.
