CONVENIENT VESTEE.

A waistcoat of one sort or another
is almost indispensable just now-to
give the right effect to, the spring
tailleur. Some women look we'll in
open coats with fronts falling loosely
over full-length waistcoats, but this
style is not becoming to large figures.
When the coat is buttoned, showing a
bit of waistcoat in the opening, full
length waistcoat is not essential; a
veStee- waistcoat will answer very
well, and will not cost nearly as
much as the fulI-1ength affair, which
has a back and armholes
There is a new vestee-collar in the
neckwear departments which is SELL
ing like the proverbial "hot cakes'
1t is just a chemisette of brocaded
silk. which fits around the neck and
buttons down the front with pretty
buttons, the chemisette coming a
little below the bust line. To the
chemisette the collar is fastened a
coat collar of white pique with high
roll effect at the back The top of
the tailored coat is adjusted over the
themisette and under the pique COL

DON'Ts FOR WOMEN

Don't permit yourself or others tc
slight the flag or ridicule the sacred
ideals of our republic.
Don't neglect to inform the authorl-
ties of anything genuinely suspicious
If the matter seems to be really sus-
picious and you hesitate to take II
to the local authorities, write to the
Department of Justice, Washington
D. c., giving as many facts as, pos
sibIe. Your communication will be
held in confidence.
Don't be a cry-baby or encourage
cry-babism. Remember that in
peace times also people went hungry
and cold, got wet feet, bad meals,
poor service, slow trains, neglect IN
hospitals, and suffered many Injus-
tees. What do you expect in war
This is the greatest war in history; if
we are as great nation as we ought
to be, our fathers and sons, mothers,
wives, sweethearts, and children will
be as brave, as hardy, as patient. as
Spartan as any other on earth.
Don't fail to censor your own news.
Remember that you can publish in
formation by word of mouth in a
street car as well Cto NY pI 1AAIAAASo - -
a newspaper. When in doubt, do not
publish. Before there were papers
there were tongues and ears.
Which is more hostile to the coun-
try, the spy who opens letters, listens
in on telephone wires, brides or dupes
soldiers and other possessors of Sc
crets or the woman who tells all she
knows in shops, street cars, streets,
sewing circles, or anywhere, to who
soever will listen?
She who knows when a transport or
any other ship will depart, or what
port it is bound for, or in what port
it is anchored. and who imparts that
information, may aid in the blowing
up of that ship by an Internal ma

illness, temper and disposition, but
he was particularly observant of their
behavior at the banquet table.
At the end of the year the choice
of Cleisthenes lay between the two
Athenians. The fair Agariste, how
ever, was inclined to favor the hand
some, witty Hippoclides.
AT last the day came on which the
wedding was to take place. Sacrifices
were made to the gods, and all the
grand festival.
Agariste, beautiful beyond all words
in her bridal robes, sat beside her
father at the head of the banquet ia
BILE. Now and then she would smile
approvingly upon Hippoclides as he
kept those about him amused by his
clever conversation. At the end of
the feast there was an oratorical
contest between the suitors, and Aga
riste's eyes shone with pride as Hip
poclides excelled all the others.
But the youth, too sure of his pow
crs, threw discretion to the winds and
began to drink freely of the rare
wines, which soon went to his head.
Turning suddenly to the musicians,
he shouted:
play lively air that I may dance
for the entertainment of the fair
Agariste."
Instead of executing the graceful
| movements of the classic dances, Hip
poclides jumped about and posed in
the most ridiculous fashion. Instead
of the admiration he had hoped to
win he inspired only laughter.
Cleisthenes saw the expression of
| disgust which passed over the lovely
face of Agariste as Hippoclides called
fer a table, and, leaping upon it
| Canced madly. Finally he stood or
his head and waved his legs about in
the air.
This undignified conduct changed
Agariste's admiration of Hippoclides
to dislike.
Cleisthenes, unable to stand this
shameless exhibition longer, cried
out:
stop, son of Tisander! You
have danced your wife away!"
Hippoclides reluctantly returned to
his seat at the banquet table.
Then Cleisthenes asked for silence,
ard addressing the suitors, said:
Noble youths, 1 am well pleased
with all of you, but, since my daugh-
ter can marry only one, 1 betroth her
to Megacles."
The young Athenian proudly ac-
cepted the hand of Agariste, and the
marriage was Immediately solemnized
with all possible pomp and cere-
| mony.
Throughout her life Agariste never
| ceased to be glad that her life had
! been united with that of the noble
| Megacles.

This was jules longed-for chance
to have her curiosity gratified.
(Which one did you Wear?" she
asked eagerly.

The foundation of the gown was of
mauve satin, made with a very mar

simple bodice with a low U-shaped
decolletage draped softly above the
girdle.
The sleeves were quite long and
fashioned of a single layer of chif-

A wide girdle of satin was arrang-

edges with satin, be added to the
gown. 1t was shirred to form a mar

WITH BICYCLE TAPE

An excellent thing to keep on hand
in the kitchen tool box, according to
one housekeeper, is a roll of bicycle
tape, 1t may, one cannot tell when,
prove to be almost worth its weight in
gold, to use an old and hackneyed
| expression. Not long ago., the water
pipes in suburban home froze and
burst. The commuter telephoned for
the plumber, but, as plumbers are
well known to be rather elusive work
men, he was not to be reached. The
next resort was to the family tool
box in the kitchen. There the most
promising aid in sight was a good-siz-
ed roll of bicycle tape. Armed with
this, the commuter descended the cell;
lar stairs, located the leak and wound
that section of the pipe and sons
space on each side of it as tightly as
possible with the adhesi-s tape, wind
ing it in several thickneses over the
hole itself. The result was most sat
isfactory and the leak stopped, SO that
the Inhabitants of the houss were
able to await the arrival Of the plum
