Y" HEN she will a-traveling go,
w the experienced tourist gives
much thought to her suits. In them
she knows she will make innumerable
first impressions and that she will
be placed to her advantage or disad-
vantage, many times by these same i'm
pressions.
Just at the right time Paris has pre-
sented some new models in suits in
which both skirts and coats are long
er and wider than they have been.
These fuller skirts and coats are in
geniously cut, and furnished up with
attractive trimmings. as braids, mar
row fringes, tiny gold or silver cord
and embroideries. The coats are usu-
ally provided with high collars. but
this rule has exceptions. They divide
honors in the realm of tailored things
with coat-dresses and street dresses
that resemble suits more or less. At
first glance it is not easy to place some
of the new street clothes in the class
to which they belong-the suits look
like dresses and the dresses look like
suits. Serge and braid trimmings,

things, are sure to please.
A suit of pOngee and one of cloth.
as shown in the picture, will stand
the acid test of expert criticism. The
handsome pongee brings visions of
palms, blue skies and sparkling seas
and the southern tourist will find much
use for it. Its box coat. slashed at
the sides and finished with braided
borders, could hardly be more chic.
The suit of cloth at the right is cut
on semi-ftted lines and is an elegant
example of fine tailoring. 1t claims q
close friendship with the vogue for
points, displaying embroidery in self
color in long, graduated points about
the bottom Of the coat that are re-
peated on the body at the under-arms.
1t is quite long and full. and has IA
fashionably. high but narrow fur col
lar. Such suit, developed in any
of the quiet colors, possesses much
dignity and is equal to almost any day
time wear with the aid of the proper
hat and accessories.

A BOVE there are pictured two
~ dresses of woolen cloth that will
prove the worth of things designed for
the business girl. But almost every
girl is more or less business girl
in these days.
Both the tailored frocks pictured are
varieties of the tunic dress and designs
are endlessly ingenious in developing
this style because 1t has shown itself
to be a favorite with all types of wom-

ONES MORNING CUP

THERE are unfortunately few of
l. us who dare lie late in bed and
have our breakfast served to us be-
fore we rise. Yet, if woman is
nervous, tagged out, semi-invalid, or
convalcscing, there are few other
things that will make her look better
and feel better during the day, than
a cup of coffee before rising.
Those who conserve their strength
will stay young looking longer than
those who Overuse their energies.

cheeks and dull eyes may be wardcd

"OFTEN" AS AN ADJECTIVE.

TN AN advertisement published re-
l. Gently in New York newspaper,
the writer spoke of "the often elabo-
rateness of the dress seen in some
groups of men," The use of the word
"oftcn" in this manner is incorrect !;
the dictionaries mention it, but they
call such use "archaic," which means
outworn, or antiqunted. "Often" is
an adverb, or modtier of verb, and
means ION frequent or numerous oc-
casions; many time; frequently"
STANDARD Dictionary. 1t should not
be used as an adjective, or Il moditier
of noun, as in the phrase quoted.
For "often," as used there, substitute
frequent" the only adjective that
may be used correctly in this sense.
In this connection it may be well
to note that the word "often" is fire.

by the assembly Of the league here this
morning.
Immediately after the opening of to-
days session. Lord Robert Cecil. al.
though appointed TO make a report on
the admission of Albania to the league,
took the floor and declared he disagreed
with the report Of the committee, which
was adverse to Albania. He asked the
assembly to elect Albania a member.
n. W. Rowell Of Canada. nlso
pleaded Albania's case. and he. with
lord Robert Cecil. for the first time
found support from other delegations OF
the British empire on n contested Qucs"
tion.
After Mr.. Rowcll had concluded. H.
A. l.. Fisher. Of Great Britain, took
the floor and said that although the
British delegation had voted against Al
bania in the committee it had since
carefully studied the question and had
decided TO vote for her admission.
Delegate Inman, of India. dwelt
upon the excellent impression the ad-
mission Of Albania would make upOn
Mohammedans throughout the world.
Rene NiYiani, OF France, and SignOr
Schantzer, of Italy, rallied to the sup
port of the Cecil proposition. These
factors broke down all opposition.

considerably softened by the full com
mission, following the debate on the
floor of the assembly. The council de-
clined to submit drafts Of the mandates
except upon a promise by the commits
sion that no reference 10 the provisions
OF the mandates would be made in the
report to the assembly.
Disposal of this question, action upon
three more applications for member
ship and decision relative to the league
budget were all that remained today
to be disposed Of during this session
Of the assembly. Hope was expressed

The action Of the committee in rec

II was asserted here this morning
that the virtual deadlock between the
two houses Of Parliament must be com.
promised or the bill would be lost and
the home rule measure Of 1914 would
automatic become law as soon as
ratification of the Turkish treaty
formally ends the war.
Developments are being awaited with
curiosity and anxiety. The action of
the House Of Lords in amending the
home rule bill was tantamount to re-
lection of the measure, and the in
sistence Of Commons upon the original
bill seems to have placed the fate of the
legislation in the balance. Parlia-
mentary writers gave widely divergent
statements In London newspapers this
morning as to what might happen.

why shouldn't things useful be
decorative as well? That is what
the maker Of those thermos sets
which I saw at the store of J. Frank

most attractive coIors. You will find
one to harmoniZe with any color
scheme. One is often grateful for
