The fur dress is a reality, but
there are many styles in new wraps
which merely look like fur dresses
and are actually nothing more
startling than a new style coat.
For the most part these dress coats
are made in straight lines with side
fastening, permitting of severe
plainness of bodice. They are
often bloused with either a fur,
leather or fancy bead belt.
Pictured here is a frock wrap
made of lovely moIeskin. Note the
slender lines as different from the
rather full lines of last year. A
neckpiece and muff of fitch and a
beaded belt complete the effect.
The same style in ermine, sable or
other shoTt-haired fur is pretty.
The long furs are not as suitable
for this style Of wrap.

l do not like the things you say
about the young man, and would
advise you to obey the wishes of
your parents. A man who will not
speak to your parents is not the
kind of man you want to marry.
You may be sure that he would
treat you in the same way after
marriage. Besides you and he are
not well suited to each other since
you like society and he does not.
Edna NJ: The mans attitude
may be all that is pure. He loves
you and will sometime marry you.
l think you are dragging a sacred
thing to the earth by talking of
such things to other people. The
little familiarity can be either good
or bad, depending upon the mans
and your attitude toward it.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: Can girl
of Is marry boy of 81 in the state
of Indiana without her mothers
consent? If not, how old must she
be to marry without her parents

In Indiana a girl of Is cannot
marry without the consent of her
parents. At the age of is she can
marry without the consent of her
parents.

Mead and Company by Octavus

negro stories, the that's all l don't

ran for some time in the Saturday
Evening Post. The plot OF the
story is simple, and really begins
ct the very beginning of the book
During quiet evening at police
Headquarters comes the report that
a wealthy citizen, especially promi-
nent in civic reform circles, has
been murdered. Within an hour,
three persons have appeared at
headquarters, and each, unknown
to the other, has confessed the
crime. The first is the niece and
ward of the murdered man, the
second, her fiance, and the third,
half-crazed fanatic, who acted I'M
der the delusiCn that the reformer
had fswindled him. The three con-
LESSONS differ considerably, all
agreeing in only one particular,
thai at the time of the murder, the /
room was in darkness for about |
five or six seconds. The mystery, !
plausibly simple, rather than high
ly, and improbably, involved, is !
solved by a private detective who /.
was placed by request of one of the
commissioners above the heads of |
the police force. The character of |
the villain is rather overdrawn, but
in other ways the story runs
smoothly, with just the proper
amount of FEASIBILITY and sus-
pense. Not as clever as some of
the exceedingly clever and delicious !
