evitable in American millinery as they
 nave always been in English millin-
 cry. English women always wear feathers when dressed in their best, and even in seasons when plumage has not been particularly fashionable in Paris, French milliners had to cre- ate feather-trimmed chapeaux for English women. From grahd my lady who wears three feathers in her for mai coiffure when she makes her bow to royalty. to the Cockney charwoman who takes pride in her bedraggled
 'ostridge" plume, English femininity accepts the feather as the sign manual Of elegance and distinction in costume and here in America feathers are com ing to be almost as popular as they are in England. The French woman does not care much for feathers. She wears them now and again. when the fancy strikes her; but she soon tires, of any one trimming in millinery She prefers odd queer feather effects to conventional plumes. Split. burnt and glycerined ostrich of course originated in Paris.
 Two of these freakish and differ ent" feather arrangements dear to the Partisan heart. come from Lewis and from Louison., The Lewis hat is of black silk beaver. with width elongated from side to side. This width is em- phasized by two enormous rams

 hat, so coquettishly rolled up at one side, and the handsome ostrich tip are deep beautiful blue shade and the silk mesh veil in lace pattern is taupe. color. With frock of black satin and Georgette and taupe fox neckpiece this hat Is very effective and enchantingly becoming to its wearer. Analyzing this enchantm ent. one finds it is not striking smartness but appealing charm that makes the hat so adorable. Charm always wins, you know, over smartness, expensive ness or striking style. And the charm of this hat is due to its grace, it's dig nity and it's perfect balance of line.
 Another very graceful model is the roll-brim hat of tete de negre velvet with gorgeous orange ostrich under and over the brim. The feathers are we'll placed, in this hat, to balance the lines, and the ostrich effect grows heavier and thicker as the line droops over from the upper left to the lower the feathers touch the shoulder.

Across the pocket runs the significant inscrip- ton; "A Stitch In Time"
 Did you ever make kitchen apron out of discarded white linen sport skirt? Styles change and perhaps your skirt has not quite the right lines. yet the good linen that simply never wears out is too valuable to throw away. Cut the skirt straight down the middle of the back spread it out and cut from 1t a big. circular apron which will cover your dress from belt to hem. You can get enough off the back edges to make straight belt, and the circular apron can be neAtly bound with the folded lawn binding that comes for the purpose

frock. The dusting apron illustrated will appeal to every woman. It is smart and pretty enough to appear at the front window-when you shake out your duster-yet it is a very prac- tical apron and covers the frock well. It is made of pale green linen with black pipings at edge and pockets and is embroidered in darker green and black wool The apron fastens with strap buttoned across the back, from hip to hip, and a similar strap goes around the neck and buttons to the bib. An apron of this sort may be made of natural colored linen with brown embroidery, or of gray linen with nasturtium embroidery.
 Another useful apron is the sewing apron pictured. Or one may wear it when knitting, or doing embroidery, or darning stockings. Scraps of silk embroidery floss or knitting wool are hard to pick off pleated wool skirt and most women wear such skirts with

Tremendously chic from the Paris

Tremendously chic from the Paris standpoint!
 The Louison hat is a cap-like tur- ban of black velvet from which a thick, irregular fringe of yellow ostrich tumbles all around over face hair and neck. Much smarter and more desirable this weird hat than any sedate model created for an Eng. fish lady-with a conventional plume winding around a conventional pie ture shape. But the English beauty in her plum e-adorned picture hat has been proverbial, from the days when Romney and Gainsborough painted these beauties. No hat is quite so becoming as a graceful. conventionalN shaped velvet hat trimmed with very rich (and rather conventionally placed) ostrich plumes. No other style of millinery can hope to equal this style.

 If your own hair is naturally oily keep d special brush and comb for your artificial hair If it becomes oily from contact with brushes and hair pins it will be distressingly flat and lifeless and very hard to manage when you want to make a soft, graceful coiffure.

n EAR me, whoever thought aprons
 would come forward as feature
 of costume? The apron has been - for so long workaday thing tnat it does seem odd to see it incof- porated in Paris frockssfor formal oc- caslons. Yet such is the case, and aprons are now the piece de resistance or afternoon and evening toilettes
 The apron entered the field slyly, as sort of semi-overskirt. called an apron tunic. It hung before or behind the skirt in pleats of draped folds last winter; but with this autumn sea- son 1t comes boldly forward as a bona fide apron, fluttering from belt rib- bon Cheruit's most popular frock at the Paris races a few weeks ago was of dark blue serge in quite simple lines and with short. dainty little apron Of hemstitched and pleated handkerchief linen hanging from a belt. The bodice was cut Nout in a deep square at the neck and in this square was vestee of tucked and hemstitched handkerchief linen. At little distance the dark blue frock seemed to be tidily adorned with cunning bib-apron.
 
 And, of course, since aprons have, stepped into the <limelight as mod:sh accessories of the formal costume. they are quite the rage as accessories of the indoor. or house costume The ehafng dish girl wears a frivolous 'apron of lace and lawn with ribbon strings that tie in as~pert bow. and coquettish ribbon bows on diminufive pockets. The hostess has ~fascina:- ing little tea apron which is supposed to protect her pretty frock--though she got along tidily enough without the apron for good many years And, Of course. there are innumerable aprons for other household uses-for knitting. for alarming. for embroider- ing for making fudge. for toasting mullins before the grate fire at Sun day night tea. for dusting. for wash ing teacups and so on. , This infinite quantity of aprons means much variety in the style of aprons and on the counters of the Woman's Exchange. where in almost every city and town the latest things

 This apron is white with pink and pale green embroidery in forget -me-not

 Some of these dainty little tea aprons, or fudge aprons or chafing- dish aprons--as you choose to desig- nate them--are of dotted swiss with trimming of Val. lace insertion and frills; or of filet lace in a flat edging. Dearly does man love a little apron of this kind. 1t is almost utterly use

A very charming little school teacher, known to the writer. was once highly insvlted because-while she was con cocting a rarebit-a man in the party ventured to suggest: Where's your apron?" To the schoolma'am a neat little apron was the emblem of teach erhood and spinsterhood. She wore aprons in business hours but never al any other time. She flushed up and glared at the poor chap who was quite | puzzled by her resentment of his re- mark.

maintenance OF DIRT ROAD
Essential That No Water Be Permitted
to Remain on Surface-Repair
Ruts Quickly.

To maintain an earth road so that
it will adequately take care Of heavy
traffic it is essential first that no wa
ter be allowed to stand on the road
surface or in the ditches, and second
" that defects occurring in the sur
face be repaired Immediately and in
a manner that will form crust suffi-
cient to maintain the loads and resist
the wear caused by traffic.
The first can be accomplished only
by grading and draining the road in
manner that will permit wafer to drain
quickly from the surface after every
rain, and the second by adding clay
and sand in the proper proportions as
required, shaping up the surface with
a light grader, and keeping the trav-
eled surface smooth and even with the
road planer, after which the earth sur
face eventually becomes smooth and
impervious to water. The result is an
extremely satisfactory road at a very
low cost to the public. -.
