When Symington Otis arrived at the

asked, as he handed him cigar, was,

Kelly.
The last vestige of excitement van

Kelly exchanged meaning glances

MORNING dresses or utility dresses
1V1 or porch dresses, as they are vari-
ously called, made Of ginghams, cham
brays, percales and other cottons, have
scared in price until they bring as
much as wool or silk frocks did In pre-
war days. The high cost OF labor,
more than anything else, has brought
them up to the point where there is
very great saving in making them at
home, and in addition to the saving
there are other good reasons why moth
ers and daughters should do this work
for themselves. Ordinary needlework
ought to be a part of every girls
training and cotton house dresses or
school dresses offer chances for learn
ing what it is certain most women will
some day need to know.
For the aspiring dapper there are
such pretty frocks of ginghams as
those shown here, to lure her into
learning how to use needle. They
could hardly be more simple, but they
are neat and crisp looking and suggest
all sorts of good times in summer
weather. Such dresses are often made
with Bingham hats to match or hats of
white organdy are provided for wear
with them. And just lately adorable
and frivolous sunbonnets have re-
turned from a long exile, to take the

An example of this appears in the

~ OATS and sweaters, for spring and
~ summer wear, reveal great va
riety in designs with very few freak
fish or ungraceful models among them.
The standard of "style" is high; that
is, in color and form the new outer
garments are artistic and pleasing and
there are models for all personalities.
The sweaters and sweater coats pre-
serve the characteristics of sports gar
ments, but have taken on additional
dignity by using elegant materials and
adopting the required lines. This fits
them to play more than one role, for
street dress with sports dress flavor
is among the things that have arrived
to spend the summer with us.
A great many cape-like wraps, and
notifications of the cape, are displayed
for summer wear. These are long and
have big collars, as rule, some of
them TO be correctly described as
huge. A few have moderate collars
Of summer furs; squirrel being ia

wraps has survived the winter.

FoREsAW A LENGTHY SESSION
Little Lady Had Terrible Fear When
the Congregation Began to
Sing Number One.

The very small lady found a certain
difficulty in maintaining an air of
Christian resignation as she entered
the church. To begin with, she had
on a perfectly new summer frock, and
she was quite aware that her hair, just
combed out of curl papers, looked
little nicer than usual. Furthermore
she was being allowed to come to
church like grown-up, as the cnosen
companion of an entirely grown-up
uncle. 1t was the first time, too. so,
at the beginning Of things she strug1
gled to overcome an un-Christlan
pride, feeling at the same time quite
sorry for children who were still al
lowed to go only to Sunday school.
Then, after what seemed very long
time of very long speeches, which Cd
viously were not original because the
rector read them out Of book, ana
much singing Of music Of a not par
ticularIy interesting sort, things began
to seem little dull Try as she might,
she couldn't escape consciousness OF
the fact that the sun was shining
brightly outside. and that it was get
ting on toward the hour when every
one would be going to take swim or
paddle in canoe or do something else
interesting. Then the congregation
rose to sing hymn. and the grown-up
uncle grave!y opened ,hymnal and
held 1t SO that she might see the words.
1t was opened at hymn No. |. She
could see that. and she had heard the
rector announce IL.

tiveness on the part of the very small
lady, which he translated as a desire
to whisper He leaned down TO listen.

Spring Coats.

1t is a matter of choice this year
whether or not coat is lined. The
materials popular during the winter,
duvetyn, peachbloom and similar
weaves, are equally good for spring
coats, sans lining or with a new silk
lining which is very suitable for the
purpose. But not all the new coats
are long. Any number of three-quar-
