FEW ALL WHITE LACE FR0CKS
Tints, Tan, Ecru and Tobacco
Brown Predominating.

1t is lace season, no doubt of that.
but rarely does one see a perfectly
white lace frock. Laces are dyed
now in the most enhancing shades
and most favored are cream tints, tan
ecru and tobacco brown. Black lace
is used extensively and there are eX.
quisitely lovely laces in peach tint.
These last are mounted over pastel
silk or satin for dance frocks. Chan
tilly lace and net laceS are dyed navy
blue, plum or brown for aftern IN
costumes and some of these laCeS are
sewed with self-color spangles that
give very rich and brilliant effect.
A charming frock Is of accordion
plated brown satin. the plated skirt
edged with brown dotted net. A sash
OF the dotted net, with huge, airy
loops, is tied around the waist. The
bodice and sleeves are of the brown
satin without net trimming

EASIER TO MAKE WEARABLES
Numerous Articles of Apparel Only
Partially Completed May Be OBJ
tanned and Finished at Home.

Many women try TO make some of
their clothes themselves. This is diff
ficult for anybody not trained TO sew
a fine seam, and few OF us do know
how TO sew well nowadays But there
are so many things half made. or so
many parts of things ready made that
one may buy in the shops that it is
worth while making use of these things
TO help out on the difficult task of home
sewing.
For one thing, there are ready made
Innings for bOdices, in white and black,
in muslin and In net. These are a
gneat help, for they give the founda-
ton of the. frock ready to start on.
There are hat Innings, varying in
price from a thin silk and cotton one
at about 40 cents TO a stiff taffeta one
at a dollar.
There are lace petticoat ruffles, all
ready to sew on a muslin foundation.
There are silk petticoat ruffies,
equally ready to sew into place on a
new or old petticoat foundation.
IHeIc are Hdll-Iudue ShTlS-SeLll-
made, that is, far more than half
made. They need only scanning up
and finishing off. They come in plaid
wool, In plated silk or in tailored fin
ish in different fabrics.
There are net Overdresses that need
only the making Of satin or
georgette slip TO convert them into
charming evening frocks.
There are girdles Of ribbon, with
long silk fringes that add q finish to
any gown.
There are all sorts of lovely neck.
wear that make the finishing off OF
the neck of a gown an easy matter.
With all these things to help one
out, the matter of making clothes is
not so difficult, even if you don't know
much about sewing.

CONSIDER THE CLOCK.
No Lock, No Language, and q Face
Without a Feature.
Did you ever take time to consi,

Did you ever take time to consider
the clock? You should have done so
II you have not, seeing the clock
gives you the time whenever you ask
II (No, this is no joke. 1t is a plain
statement Of fact.)
The clock IS so sensitive that Il
constantly keeps its hands before its
face. This is due to the fact that
through no fault Of its own 1t has
been doing time for many years in
the most public manner. It may be
that as the face OF the clock has no
eyes. nor mouth, nor nose, nor chin,
nor cheeks, nor any Of the usual ia
cial appurtenances. Il keeps its hands
over It to hide these defects. But
this can scarcely be. we fancy, be-
canse Its hands have no fingers nor
thumbs, nor has 1t any arms, and
any attempt 10 conceal one defect
would only expose another.
Most clocks have only two hands,
but many have three. and 1t is some
what remarkable anatomicaIly as
well SIS numerically, that the third
hand IS the second hand. It may
also be remarked that the minute
hand Is not the minute hand, for 1t
Is longer than the hour hand.
The clock has neither feet nor
legs. but it runs just the same. 1t
may be fast or slow, but 1t does not
walk. 1t always runs. and it never
runs up. II runs down unless II Is
kept running round. Providence
wisely did not give feet to the clock.
The clock has key. but no lock,
and for that reason even the most
ignorant person never tries to open a
clock with the key.
Some clocks strike and some do
not, but no clock ever strikes with
its hands. Just why a clock should
be so peculiar is no affair of ours.
(Of course this is no joke. The
striking OF a clock may be an affair
OF hours, but it is not spelled the
same way. We are not trying to be
funny. This is a dignifed article.
Please do not interrupt Us again.
That passage in Scripture which
bdgSg by luClI MOIhb 0udll YOU
know them" does not refer to
clocks, but 1t might we'll have done
30, because that is the way a good
clock is known.
The clock speaks a universal Ian
guage, and no matter whether It is
a German clock, or French or Span
ish or Italian. 1t can tell you the
time just as distinctly as if it were
plain Yankee.
The clock differs from all other
human affairs in that while their
operations end when they are wound
up, the clocks do not begin until
they are wound up.
There are no clocks in heaven, be-
cause there is no time there Neither
IS there any night. and an eight-day
clock would not know when TO stop.

Too Thin.

There Is a Representative in Con-
gress from the West who Is exceed
ingfy thin. Being a very good-nat-
ured man. this Representative al
ways takes In good part any joking
reference to his slenderness; indeed.
he Is not ayerse to Jest himself In
that connection. as is illustrated by
an incident that occurred in street
car IN Washington.
II appears that Just as the. car was
rounding q curve a bUly citizen
lurched forward and sat IN the Con-
gressman's lap. He recovered HIM
self quickly, and began a profuse
apology, when he was interrupted by
the Statesman's CHEEKY that" all

To Whitney Warren, a well-known
American architect who has given
himself whOle-heartedly 10 the cause
OF the allies, comes the fiattering offer
of the task of restoring the beautiful
buildings Of the University of Louvain,
which were destroyed In 1914. If he
accepts the appointment he can doubt
less find many rich Americans who
would like TO contribute TO this great
work OF reconstruction.

As women now have full suffrage,
the matter of jury duty is becoming
a prominent one. Women in several
places who have been called TO serve
ON juries have sought as an excuse
hat they had to prepare their hus-
bands dinners. And courts, being but
men. have found in this common mas
culine interest a genuine subject Of ex-
cuse from this unpleasant duty. For
any court will readily recognize that a
woman who can cook a good dinner is
too precious TO be wasted on mere
court routine.
