THEY TURNED AWAY DAZEDLY
Young Couple In Search of an Apart
ment Run into Unusual
Landlord.

They were swapping yarns at the
Athletic club the other night and
Frank Garbutt told this one, though
he doesn't vouch for its veracity.
"The young husband touched the
landlords doorbell timidly and his
wife Just as timidly sought his hand,
when the door banged open and a
fierce, bewhiskered man confronted
them.
"H-have you an apartment to rentY'
piped the young husband.
"Have you any children?" roared
the landlord, running a sinewy hand
through his whiskers.
"No." replied the young husband,
promptly.
"Any dogs?" blared the landlord.
"Not one" chirped the young wife.
"Well, then" said the landlord tri-
umphantly, ''you can't get in here.
We never rent apartments to people
who haven't children or dogs"
The door slammed In their faces
and they turned away dazedly.

What with suit skirts and blouses
separate skirts and blouses and one
piece, all-day frocks, business women
and others may achieve good many
variations Of apparel with the mini
mum outlay for garments. The same
blouse answers for several skirts, the
same skirt for several blouses, and
variety comes Of these combinations
sandwiched between days when blouse
and skirt are replaced with the one
piece frock. The character of the
toilette depends upon the choice of
styles in blouses and skirts, and the
tendency Of the styles is away from
severely tailored things.
The mannish, high-collared shirt
waist, however, is never entirely out
OF style, and its virtues are empha-
sized when II is occasionally worn or
alternated with blouses that are less
severe. 1t is trim and businesslike,
and we notice these attributes and adj
mire them more when not brought too
often to our attention. Shirtwaists
are, naturally, made Of materials that
stand laundering well without any
special care In it, while blouses of
more delicate fabrics have to be
washed or otherwise cleaned with care
from the nature Of the material.

Although the severely plain tailored
suit is giving place to fancier styles,
along comes the plainest and sim
plest Of street hats, making ire
mendous success. It Is trim, smart
hat that looks well In almost any
company, whether with street frock
or suit. But 1t shines ut its best
when worn with suit equally trim
and simple. If you are looking for a
distinctive and wholesome style, Sc
lecr this combination for your fall
street outfit, and find yourself admired
for looking ''well set up'-as In a uni
form.
The sailor hat Of silk beaver-or hat
ter's plush-has been received so en-
Enthusiastically that 1t appears with
many variations of crown and brim.
Crowns are straight or belled or slop-
ing, high or medium. Brims are more
or less wide, and occasionally slightly
dropping. All these sailors are band
cd ana nearly all bands are finished
With fat bows at the left side. But
there are exceptions with bows that
IRE not fiat and sometimes they are
set ut the front of the hat. These
little variations of size and shape
make It possible to suit all types of
faces in hat that Is equal to being
universally worn without becoming
tiresome.
In the group above square
crowned, wide-brimmed model, and
sloping crown with narrower brim,
show two Of the popular variations of
the sailor. Almost any milliner dis
play will provide a selection of four
or five varieties Of the same hat.
