w OMEN are sure to approve Of
w the new. tailored dresses for
fall, because there is no chance to
grow tired of any one style in them.
There is no monOtony among them, no
dresome repetition of ideas in con-
struction or trimming. but such di-
versity of really good designing that
there is dress for every style, just
as there is a becoming hat for every
face. They have one very good point
In common, however, and that is their
simple lines, and designers appear to
agree on the neckline, which is round
ed In front and low enough sometimes
to admit of chemisette, but higher
Chan usual ut the back.
Two very smart tailored frocks for
fall may be studied in the picture here
and both present new features. The
frock Mt the left has severely
straight bodice with long waist line,
and sleeves slashed on the outer arm
and curved upward to the three-quar-
ter length. They are finished with a
nat band Of satin and the neck, in the

ut the back. Knitted or braided belts
and sashes OF the same wool as the
sweater are the rule. Colors are quiet
with the exception OF some strong
blues and greens and In many cont
models no contrasting colors are in
troduced, but borders and bands are
accomplished by varying the stitch In
the knitting.
An attractive slip-over sweater ts
shown In the picture. It's neck and
sleeves are unusual. the former hny-
ing square opening at the front
and the latter deep-knItted flounces.
The border Mt the bottom is of the
same color as the sweater and so In
the long knitted sash. This model Ats
snugly about the hips and is a trife
longer than Its forerunners.

PROVED TRUTH OF OLD SAYING
Incident Should Have Convinced Wom

An occasion when ignorance was

lavish in the Canadian Magazine.
recall one woman, he says, who al.
ways used all her own butter on her
table. But one unfortunate day she
discovered a dead mouse in the crock
of cream. Not daunted, however, she
did the usual churning and produced
fine-looking roll of butter. But she
couldn't eat 1t, though she knew the
butter would satisfy anyone who did
not know about the mouse. So she
took it to the stOrekeeper, told him the
truth, and asked whether he would ex.
change it for roll from his cellar.
You know" she said, making
slight misquotation, ''for what TIE
mind doesn't know the heart won't
grieve about"
"Oh. that's all right" replied the
obliging storekeeper. I'm glad to &C.
commodate you."
He disappeared into the cellar and
a moment later reappeared with a roll
of butter similar to the one he had
taken down.
The woman thanked him and depart.

store again.
'How did you like the butter gave
you the other day?" the storekeeper
asked.
''It was just lovely" said the WON.

1t from my own"

EVIDENTLY NOT AN EXPERT
Visiting Minister Asking Blessing at
Table Was Completely outeIassed
by Little Isabel.

To eight-year-old Isabel ever since
she has been able to lisp has fallen
the honor in her family Of saying the
blessing at meals. Consequently she
was indignant the other night when at
supper her father transferred this
privilege to a clergyman who was q
dinner guest.
Isabel had already clasped her hands
and was bowling her head preparatory
to starting the prayer when her father
took the fatal step:
'Mr. Finderkin." he said, "will you
say the blessingT
Isabel shot a baleful look at the
guest, but a warning expression Of her
mothers face silenced the protest.
Apparently submitting, Isabel bowed
her head and her lips moved swiftly as
Mr.. Finderkin murmured the blessing.
The prayer completed, Isabel lifted
her head beaming triumphantly.
II said the blessing six times while
you were saying 1t once" she told Mr.,
Finderkin.-New York Evening Sun.

the top of the skirt at the back, where
1t Is plated and at the bottom of the
front portion which is gathered. The
skirt joins the bodice with fiat pip
Ing of satin and just above this pip
ing satin bands reveal how cleverly
they can be used when designer sets
out to do his best with them. Three
rows of slashes in the bodice furnish
them chance to slip in and out and
form checker-board pattern that is
charming for cloth dress.
The simplest of straight-line dresses
in the second model ought to inspire
gratitude in the hearts of plump
women, for 1t Is destined to give them
long lines. There is an inverted plait
down the front and decorations of mar

finished with tiny steel buttons. The
