described, white stockings, barred with

The two swimming suits shown IN

itual swimmer. They are lightweight

the left is shaped to set very close to
the figure. 1t is in navy blue with
navy and white striped border. The
suit at the right is in gray and white
bordered with white band having
pin stripe. The upper garment hangs
straight from the shoulders and is
given its shapeliness by a white sash
of woven material like the suit.

There are bathing suits-and bath
ing suits-but they are as varied as
the shells of the sea. Some Of them
are intended for the girl who sticks to
the beach, but lends countenance to
the sport of swimming BY wearing
stunning bathing costnme'-which may
never, be wet. Others are pretty and
more or less practical affairs Of silk,
that are all right for the usual splash
ing about and beach play. And then
there are the real, practical SWIM
ming suits for the girl who swims
and demands the right kind Of gar
ment for't the sport.
A real and successful bathing suit
must be sturdy and equal to strenu-
Gus wear. 1t must setNwell and look
we'll when it is wet as well as when
It, is dry. 1t must insure perfect
freedom Of the limbs and be dyed
with colors that know no such words
as run" or fade" With all these
sterling, common-sense qualities it will
remain forever unhonOred and unsung
If it is not good looking to start with.

sleeveless, and others have short

FINDS HER PLAN WORKS WELL
Lucinda Has Saved Money Since Aban-

Things on Impulse.

"There are so many things want to
buy" said Lucinda, 'and l am SO inn
pulsive. see something that pleases
my fancy and straightway I buy it;
only to find little later that really
didn't want 1t and that now 1 don't
care for It at all.
AT least that is the way did do;
but now I do differently. Now when I
see something that once would have
bought on sight say to myself: DO
really want thatT and then I say to
myself. 4 will wait week and see.'
AT first it was very hard for me to
do this; but then 1 got myself under
control and came to manage very well.
"Often on the second or third day,
when have seen that thing still on
sale, I have found that no longer fan
cied It and then, Of course, ! was glad
I hadn't bought it but then sometimes
when found the thing gone, why, then
naturally imagined I did want It; but
on the whole 1 find this plan to work
beautifully and now I stick to It faith
fully, and certainly It has saved me
from buying a whole lot Of things I
didn't want; things such as used to
buy, that Brother Claude, in his
brusque way, called junk"

til spring has really come to stay. BY
the middle of May styles are establish

designers have appeared and had their

Long capes. long coats and coats
with detachable capes made their entry
together this season. With Its ad-

Goats have appeared in the heavier

CHAMPION OF BABIES

In all the cities of America there
is n feud between the landlord and the
baby. And in all the cities but one
the landlord is usually the winner.
Babies. are not wanted in modern flats.
But one city official, James II. Can
non, Jr., commissioner Of revenue and
finance in Jersey City, has been noslng
about in the crevices of the law and
has discovered a way of assuring to
the baby its happy home. He has
already opened fire on the baby-shy
landlords of the city and dared them
to put another infant out on the
streets. Moreover, he offers his plan
free of charge to all other cities, with
the assurance that they can similarly
make use of it to protect Americas
next generation. Commissioner Gan
non admits that the landlord Is within
his technical rights in choosing whom
ever he likes for his tenants. But the
city has technical rights, too. And he
says to the landlord: every well, if

FRENCH HERO OF THE AIR

Sub.-Lieut. Rene Fonck Of the
French aviation service started out the
other day to avenge his friend, Lieu
tenant Chap,lt, who had just been
killed by the Huns.
Lieutenant Foncx had only just
left the region of the airdrome when
he encountered an enemy squadrilla.
He drove straight at them opening
fire with his machine gun, and> shot
down two of the Germans. He then
went after a third machine and sent
it crashing to earth.
Fonck returned to the airdrome to
take on more gasoline and to rest be-
fore going out for the second patrol.
On this patrol he met another squad
rilla. One two-seater he shot to pieces
in the air and two others he saw strike
the ground, all within five minutes.
Lieutenant Fonck's achievement
has never been equaled. He recently
took a leading place among French
aces, and is the greatest French air

PERSISTENT HARRY new

For inslstency perhaps Senator
Harry New Of Indiana wins the prize
in the war senate Of the United States.
The junior senator from Indiana has a
sticking power that equals that of the
prOverbial bulldog.
When New gets behind war
measure he stays behind it until It in
put through. AS one of the strongest
advocate. Of universal military service
he has brought the subject to the at
tention of the senate almost daily,
despite the fact that at times 1t has
seemed almost hopeless.
Tucked away in sent benes tn the
galleries, Senator New is not often
seen. but he is heard. He Is quick
to his feet whenever promise for &C
ton opens up, and he never leaves the
chamber until his fight is disposed of.
When the Spanish war broke out
Harry New was quick to get into the
service. His service during that war
rovo him IN inSjpht into military af.

SCULPTOR WHO RAISED A ROW

Gutzon Rnrglum, though q dis
tinguished sculptor, probably attracted
more attention to himself by his accu-
sations against the members Of the old
aircraft production board than he ever
did by his art work. Selected by his
friend, President Wilson, to find out
why the airplane program had col
lapsed, he asserted he had found plain
evidence of incompetency, graft and
pro- German influences. Those involved
came back with counter-charges i'm
pugning Mr.. Borglum's disinterested-
ness, which he angrily repealed.
Mr.. Borglum, whose full name Is
John Gutzon de Ia Mothe Borglum,
was born in Idaho In 1867, and was
educated at st. Mary's college in KAN
sas. After studying art for a. time in
San Francisco, he went to Paris at tho
age of twenty-three and there studied
and worked in the Academic Julien
and the Ecoie des Beaux Arts. He ex-
hibited as q painter and sculptor In
mia, and in 1896 went to London, where
New York has been his home. HtD

No Rice for Face Powder.

Rice is a food, not a frivolity, ac'
cording to wartime classification.
Therefore the French government has
prohibited the manufacture Of face
powder from rice. This is the sad
news flashed straight from Paris, that
gay city which has previously led the
world in the matter OF vanities, as it
now leads in the matter Of valor. This
report declares also that the women
Of France are Ticking away daily on

Occasionally the brightest lawyer
encounters a witness whose answers
are a disappointment to him, says a
wr;ter in the Boston Herald. 1t is
said that the late Governor Robinson
was one day examining a man from
whom he was trying to get a dehhi-
ton of a miracle.
eff a man should fall from a third
story window he said, "and should
strike on his head on a stone walk
and get up and go away unhurt, what
would that be-"
.eThat would be an accident, said
the witness.
.sWell, if the same man next Ieil
from the same window, struck on the
same SPOT on his head again, ana
again walked away unhurt, n
would that be-"
.That would be a coincidence.
VERY WE'LL said the lawyer pa
tiently. and certain that he a MS
man at last; nov, if on a third DAY
the same man fell again from the
same window on the same spot on MS
head and again walked away un-
hurt what would you call that?

No Help for the Heather.

There had been a missionary ser
nor and collection at a certain
church. and a little girl who had ac-
companied her father to the service
seemed perplexed and meditative,
When she reached home she asked
her mother whether the natives OF
Africa. of whom they had heard,
wore any clothes.
Mo- replied the mother, they
do not"
Then said the observing child,
what was the use of the button
that father put in the plate?'
