Lorena Carroll, 10, Asks Court for
Larger Income. Wants Amount
Increased to $4,000.

NEW YORK, N. Y.-Miss Lorena
Carroll, 10, petitioned the surrogate's
court to increase her annual allow
ance from $4,000 per year to $780,
600. She says the increased cost of
living makes it impossible to keep
up her social position on the smaller
amount.

permitted her mother to spend $12,-
500 a year on the daughter instead
of $500. Since that time her allow
-ance has been increased to $4,000.
Here is schedule of her expenses:
Rent, $4,000.
Clothing, including sport coats,
evening dresses, auto coats, jewelry,
furs, toilet articles, manicuring,
shampooing, $4,000.
Household expenses, $4,000.
Insurance, $3.50.
Automobile operation, $4,000.
Education and church, $4,000.

Railroad fares, hotel bills, dances
and amusement parties, $4,000.

Next Tuesday, July l, the day on

uled to become operative, will have
some compensation, after all, for on

ed out that on and after July 1, 1919,

ter will be the same as the rate in

cent postal cards will be discontinued

tai cards be redeemed in cash.

DADS LOVE LETTERS
CONDEMNED BY WIFE
GIRL PUTS GOOD ONE OVER HER
MOTHER. FERVENT EPISTLES
DECLARED DISGUSTING.

Time is a great agency to cool the
love ardor of those who have been
married for several years, but it does
not cool the fervency of the love
epistles that were received in ones
youth, as was proven in prominent
home when a young woman found a
bundle of love letters her father
wrote to her mother before their
marriage.
The girl had received some letters
of her own during her short career
in Cupid's game, but she admitted,
after reading those of her father, that
thew were classics and she was not
surprised that he won her mother for
his bride. They were soothing, con-
vincing, loving to the last word. No
more passionate, endearlng terms
were ever written, the girl opined.
Then she decided to have some fun
with them. She took the letters to
her mother and read them, tellin'
her that they were recently written
to her by young man of the town.
Mother appeared greatly Disguised
and forbade her daughter associating
with the young man who would write
such "sickening stuff" to a girl.
The daughter upheld the writer
and there was quite a scene. Tn
mother threatened to enlist the aid
of the father if the daughter did not
promise to give up the young man.
The daughter thereupon revealed
the, real author of the letters and, as
the daughter expressed it later, "the
house became so still one could hear
the grass growing in the back yard"

WOMEN CURIOUS? MAYBE;
JUST SEE WHAT MEN DID
Thousands of Them Answered an Ad-
vertisement, and Were Stung.


NEW YORK, N. Y.-Men say wo-
men are "curious" shat to get a
woman's curiosity aroused is sure
way to start something. "Yet," says
a bulletin that has been issued by the
Associated Advertising Clubs of the
World, thousands of men sent mon
ey recently to a Texas man who adj
vertised some literature for men on
w. Men wrote from everywhere.
They fairly swamped the advertiser
with mail"
And what did they get? They got
stung, just as they so rightly deserv-
ed. They got bunch of pictures of
men riding wild western horses-ln-
nocent pictures, such as man, wo-
man or child would enjoy.
1t might seem poetic justice to al
low a man who would answer such
an advertisement to continue to get
the singer, but the postoffice depart
ment, as soon as the matter cane to
it's attention, issued an order against
such a use of the mails.

CAY-HUED BLOUSES
AFTER PEEK-A-BOO
NEW STYLES ARE RIOT OF HEC-
TIC COLORS. THEY'RE CALLED
JUMPERS OR CASSOCKS.

NEW YORK, N. Y.-They are be-
ing introduced to you as peasant
blouses, jumpers or cassocks this sea-
son. In spite of such appellative cam
outage you can see right through ev-
cry one of 'em and know them for
what they really are-just the eter-
nal separate blouses.
Though they are always basically
blouses, they certainly do ring the
changes, even as they change the
names. They have sprouted peplums
and gillets and SUPPLIES and all sorts
of things, and to look for simple
waist any more is simply a waste of
time.
The loose three-quarter tunic or
Cossack model, bright with yarn, silk
or metallic embroidery is the favorite
of fashion. From a cossack to a cas-
sock in the domestic models is but
shade of differing, and in lovely
sheer and soft georgettes and chif-
TONS their round necks, short sleeves
and hens heavy with embroidery or
bead work these elongated waists
are irresistible. Some, in lieu of the
popular short sleeve, have long flow
ing transparent bell sleeves, weight
ed at the hand with a banding design
of the beads or embroidery.
Come in Many Colors.
A most distinctive casaque, unus-
ual for one reason-because it is
actually developed in an opaque sport
silk through which only X-ray eyes
NAV peer-comes in all brilliant
shades, coral, jade, orange, yellow,
purple and marine blue and is deep
ly embroidered in water lilies. 1t has
loose belt and a scarf attached to
the neck which may be draped ac-
cording to the wearers' taste or dis
erection.
The surplice models are very smart
in figured chiffons, or plain-toned
georgette, crossing demurely over the
breast and tying sashily behind The
gillet blouses are invested with much
frilliness, lace and charm.
Perhaps the very newest note of
the blouses this season is the color
note. They are all perfect riot of
hectic shades, either in their material
or their touches of embroidery and
trimming. There is nothing soft or
pastel about their tints, either, but
the most brilliant and gorgeous of
shades splash their transparent sur
faces.
Scallops and Frills.
Even the wash waists, the trim tail
or waists and chastest of lingerie
boluses all have their touches of col
or, if it be only the edging of frill
or the piping of peplum. Colored or
candies and voiles and swisses dotted
with divers hues are fresh and fluffy
as the summer flowers with their
crisp hemstitched and scalloped frills
around their necks and sleeves.
Stripes, checks, plaids, dots and all
over figured designs in the voiles,
chiffons end georgette crepes have
the solid colors, except the one-toned
organizes, backed into second place
for the seasons best blouses. So If
you are figuring on figured blouse,
YOU may be sure of a waist that is
no waste.
