THE CHEERFUL BANNERS.

The canning season is upon us. From the back doors there comes the fragrant odor of steaming fruit and women and girls with flushed but cheerful faces can be seen work ing over their jars and kettles. The amount of vegetables and fruits being put up. by the canners will be some thing marceIIous this year. And we shall need every bit.
 Armies in the field waste untol quantities of food. A large part ot the product of our canneries must now go to France, It Is up to the home makers to fill the gap, besides help ing to create substitutes for other sources of food supply now depleted The spirit shown by many thous- ands of young girl canners is splen- did, The Canning Clubs of girls ot High and Grammar age are creating a tremendous food reserve fer this time of near famine. The Times offers it's sincere tribute of admira- ton to every girl and every home maker whose toll is Sc big a factor in the winning of the twar, We could net fight but for the women,

Diary of a Fashion Model
she Learns the Max MhiLe Is Used to Make RIac
: By GRACE TEORNCLIFFE

Not everybody can wear black" I near this often when women are tempted by some particularly stun ming black frock, and then turn from it regretfully. They believe that they are one of the type who cant wear black"
 You need high color to carry off this sombre hue" they say You must have a stunning figure to carry it off," And so on.
 Mime. Frances waves all these theor- les away very positively, often de- claring:
 There's no reason why any one can't wear black-the tall and the thin as we'll as the well proportioned, the pale girl as well as her more for tunate sister gifted with a peaches and eam-complexion."
 Yesterday a slim young debutante came in, determined that she would have black frock. And her elderly aunt, who accompanied her, was equally determined that she ought to be influenced away from the idea.
 "It's too old for you, my dear" Auntie quietly protested. "It will make you look ever taller and thinner than you are"
 The young girl looked depressed at the suggestion, but she was deter mined, nevertheless and when Mad anne took up the cudgels for her she frightened up wonderfully.
 Let me show you a specially youth full frock in black Madame tactfully suggested to the aunt. You know, it's the line of a dress that decides it's appropriateness for young or old. And my experience has been that if you relieve the solid black by some other color or trimming you can make it as becoming to the slim young girl as to heavier type.
 ''It's the color combined with black that will sometimes make black the finest background for even a pale complexion. A touch of red or Copen- hagen blue or burnt orange, if selected according to the build and coloring of the wearer, will make her appear as youthful as any of the lighter shades" |"
 The frock we showed her was a splendid illustration of this point. It is a black satin dress with a rather narrow skirt Wide bands of black satin are used in three rows to give it breadth rather than mere fitness. But the clever touch that makes this a truly youthful frock is the panel of white all-over eyelet embroidery in front. A plain white panel of any kind would simply break up the lines of the skirt and make the thin ap- pear thinner. But the heavy em- broidery in this white panel not only lightens up the whole frock, but gives width and fulness to the skirt.
 The waist is of black satin with a white collar of eye embroidery to match the panel and through the white pearl clasp at the end of the col lar black satin tie is pulled. This is tied in careless knot, and gives an air of boyishness to the blouse. The long sleeves are plain and mar row with no trimming whatever, not even white cuffs. Leaving off the

she was naturally expected to marry very quickly. Her people expected to derive some advantage from her marriage, for as was customary in those days, matrimonial alliances were expected to add territory to the kingdom of one of the contracting parties as well as to cement natonai friendships. Jadwiga had a throne to offer to the man she married, therefore her people expected a bril- liant match that would add vast lands andNgreat glory to Poland.
 But Jadwiga's affections were al- ready engaged. She had some years before met a handsome Austrian prince, and they had fallen madly in love. Queen Jadwiga, indeed, had determined to marry him. But roy atty has not the same freedom of choice as the common populace. It was necessary for the Queen to sub- init her wishes to the Polish Diet, as their congress was called.
 Accordingly, the prince came to Cracow with a splendid retinue and loaded with presents, and he urged

ETIQUETTE
Men should keep their engagements

Men should keep their engagements a few minutes before each dance.
 Curly: Six couples for a little eve ming party is just a nice number. It is not essential that the gentlemen be seated opposite the ladies, but rather near those who are congenial and who can keep things moving. For this number a buffet supper would be practical and makes serving easier. You could serve everything from the dining table, attractively decorated. A hot dish, plates and forks conven- iently near, small bUttered rolls and sandwiches, olives, followed by either ices or ice cream, small cakes and coffee. The hot dish might be re- placed by a salad.

PAUIINA.

Paulina was Roman lady of great beauty, wealth and virtue, who lived in the reign of Tiberius. about the year 30. She married Saturninus, a husband worthy of her. Decius Nun dus, a Roman knight, fell passion ately in love with her, and tried in vain to obtain her affections. At length Ide, a female servant, offered her help to Mundus for 50,000 drach- mae. This women knew of Paulina's great veneration for the goddess Isis, and bribed several priests of this god dess, who went to Paulina and enticed her to the temple of Isis, informing her that the god Anubis desired her to visit him. She informed her llus- band, who gave his consent, and Pau lima went to the temple, where Nun dus was introduced to her as Anubis. Soon afterward she discovered his treachery, and informed her husband. The latter appealed to Tiberius, who caused 1de and the priests of Isis to be crucified for sacrilege, the temple of Isis to be thrown down, and her statue cast into the Fiber. Mundus was merely banished.
