visit absent for the holidays. He was
somewhat weary from his useless
tramp, and as he passed the office of
John Dallas, who dabbled in real es-

out OF the window. Now the thought
never occurred to Mr.. Briefly that
nero might be a possible benefactor.
John Dallas was gray and grizzled. He
mad changed good deal Of late years,
and all his old-time cheeriness seemed
to have vanished after his children
had grown up and married and went
away. The clergyman had heard that
Dallas and his wife lived a lonely and,
1t was said, rather unhappy life. Dali

dejectedly. He had left home that
morning wretchedly dissatisfied. In
sensibly since the youngest and last
OF the family brood had chosen a wife
and had settled in another section of
the country. like himself, Mrs. Dallas
had changed greatly, and the holiday
season as it came around seemed al
most unbearable.
The two would sit evenings amid
loneliness that really placed them
as far apart as If they were separated
by illumitable space.
John Dallas opened his soul to the
broad-minded, genial souled minister
who had looked to the spiritual well

OF century. He had not one word of

VOID getting into a rut. 1t is the

YOU.
Habits follow the lines OF least re-

broken only after a heroic tussle that
fairly tears Us up by the roots They
creep on uncOnsciously. like old age;
when We wake 10 them they startle
US by the ineyitableness of their

How often have We seen the lives
and happiness OF our friends and
neighbors ruined simply By an inabil-
ity to adjust themselves TO changed
conditions The wheel that runs
smoothly in a rut travels poorly in
breaking new paths. A happy faculty
of fitting into the old situations that
turn up in the course OF events is the
most fortunate characteristic with
which we can be endowed There is
an art in bending graciously.

II HE coming OF spring has pro-
duced many striking and varicT
styles and combinations OF col
ors and materials. While in many
cases the new models are decided in
novations in design. still the results
are unusually pleasing and becoming
and show conservative good taste. The
French designers seem particularly
fond Of gold net with a rich brocade
for evening gowns. and ribbon is very
popular as a trimming for both
dresses and hats.
A TUO-Pieee Eject.
This is a whole frock, appearances
70 the contrary. The tunic idea is here
clearly and gracefully shown. because
OF the boldness Of contrast both OF ma
teriRl and color.
You see. the tunic is OF dark blue
chiffon, ell finely accordion pleated
and slit to show the slip OF beige satin
which extends to the line OF the bust
and in straps over the shoulders. That
deep stride, dropped TO an unusually
long waist line, is a feature which you
will see quite often this season
Very cleVerly done. is il not? And
it certainly is most attractive in both
appearance and the combination of ma
terisIs. For the stout woman this
would make an ideal afternoon dress; ;
the tunic itself might be shifted to 9th
eT slips for variety's sake.
Chic Dance Frocks.
You can't very well blame the de
signer OF spring dance frocks for using
net when such charming effects can
be obtained as is shown by the photo
graph
II begins by wrapping itself about
IA soft folds to make a snug bodice.
Then il sashes itself most attractively
with satin. a great wide crushed sash
in front and trailing off into a narrow
er front draping Thereafter the dress
travels down into two wide panels,
front and back: they are OF embroid-
cred net plus deep lace hounces. What
remains OF the skirt expresses itself
in row upon row Of rufhes.
But quite the most striking feature
Of AL is the sleeve. 1t is quite long
and straight until It reaches the cutf
line. Then It branches OF into q
cloudy pun Of the neck, yet. a real
loop.
Then there Is the draped georgette
with its simple dignity not marred by
any elaborate trimming, but it is often
enhanced by the effective use of rib
bon for tnpi TiEdIs with loops and end
aufsh.
