Pale Pastel Taffetas.

The pale pastel taffetas, sometimes
changeable, will challenge any girl to
dare try making them up without lace.
One of the most fascinating models
made Of just such materials was in
shot green taffeta, with tiny UNDER
skirt of lace and small sleeves of the
same. There were two tunics. The
first, long and somewhat narrow, was
cut shorter than the lace all around,
but on one side specially curved up in
one place to show the lace. It was
bound, like the upper draped and
panniered tunic, with sky blue taffeta
and had bowknot finishing the high
est point. At the girdle little bou-
quet of mauve buds gave that know
ing touch which all high-class dress
makers know how to give.

Long Figured In History
and Legend.

A thousand years ago, or there
abouts, some thoughtful Norseman
found that long, thin strips of wood
fastened to his war-boots enabled him
to get over the snow-clad plains and
mountains of his native land easily
and with great speed. Before long all
the hardy Norsemen were going
around to fight or to wassail on these
useful aids to winter travel, which
became known as ski, pronounced by
the Norsemen as IL spelled SHE. SO
popular did skiing become that. ac-
cording to Morse mythology, even one
Of the ancient viking gods went In for
1t. Olaf Trygvasson, best loved and
most celebrated of the old Norwegian
hero kings, Is said to have been an
expert skier. Another king, one Of the
early Haakons, escaped from pursuers
with designs on his life, by travelling
five hundred miles on ski, over one
Of the most rugged sections OF Nor
way. Morse soldiers were equipped
with skis and at the important bat
tie of Stiklestad ski regiments played
an important part. In later times,
during a war on Norway conducted
by Charles XII, Swedish scouts dis
covered the location Of the Norwegian
troops and compelled band Of skiers
to guide them through the woods at
night. The willy Norwegian skinner
led the Swedes to precipice, threw
their burning torches down the noun
tain side, and then made a quick get
away" The Swedes, following the
lights, were hurled to death on the

LEGISLATURE WILL MAKE A

 It is expected that many a political horoscope will be cast during that time, and that aspirants for office will disclose their idnetity which they have been so modestly concealing all this time. Especially, will the effort to be made to change the date of the primary bring about a political con troversy that will remind one of the good old days. In the event the, date is changed, and placed in May, every candidate for every office may be ex- pected to come out of the woods with out further delay.
