TIL HE versatile mode presents us
L. with conflicting silhouettes in
suits and a variety of styles to choose
from, and leaves us to pronounce our
own judgment on them. The straight
and the tiaring boX-coat seem des-
tined to great success; they are
developed with many ingenious vari-
ations in lines and trimmings, and
have a youthfulness of style that is
great asset. But the box coat has
rivals that boast the charm of nov
city, in suits that have ripping pep
lums on their coats, and in others
that have the appearance of frocks.
A few things are assured; among
them the success of the tlaring coat
sleeve on box coats, the continued use
OF embroidery, the vogue of slender
lines and straight skirts.
Two suits very different from each
other in outline, invite comparison, in
the picture above. One has a straight
box coat and the other a coat with
ripping peplum. The first suit will

Remove one box side, and hinge it to
the box bottom with a cloth strip Gig.

Saw down the ends of the box on a
diagonal line, as indicated by the lines
A in Fig. 10, and remove the box side

two parts shown in Figs. II and IS.
Nail the box cover boards to these sec

A CROSS PUZZLE.

Fig. l shows the completed cross,
with the blocks numbered in the order
In which they should be assembled,
while Figs. Z, s and 0 show the steps
In assembling, with the blocks SINH
iarly numbered. The patterns in Figs.
Z, 3, and 5 give the necessary di-
mansions for marking out the blocks
and their notches; the diagrams in Fig.
8, showing the completed blocks, will
help you interpret the dimensiOned
drawings, and by the positions of the
numbers upon their ends you will see
exactly what positions the blocks oc-
cupy in the formation of the cross.
Use a close-grained wood out of which
to cut the blocks. Hardwood is better
than soft, because the grain is firmer,
because there is less danger of split
ting out portions between cuts, and be-
cause it is easier to get square, clean
cut, corners. .....,

dimensions given in Fig. 2, Sandpaper

IATS have long been conceded the
L l. place Of first Importance in the
matter Of smart dressing-they do won
ders for those who know how to select
them-but up-to-date women are in
clined to dispute this supremacy.
BlOuses, smOcks and small coates or
jackets that will dress one up to any
degree of formallty are making things
interesting for millinery. These bril-
liant garments rival hats In gay beau
ty and are the most convenient of be-
lOngings, for they are not difficult to
make, and they tone up the wardrobe
without any great expenditure of time
or money.
A lovely example which may be
classed as either coatee or smOcb
appears in the illustration above.

find many admirers among women
who are striving to achieve the a.
pearance of slenderness, and the 9th
er will appeal to those who must make
up for a lack of curves in figures a
little too slender. The woman of nor
NAL weight does not have to concern
herself with these things, but only to
consider which style is most becOm-
ing. The suit at the left has high
waistline and is embelished with
little embroidery matching it in color.
The coat has single fastening at the
bust line in fink buttons, and they
form the finish for the plain coat

The box coat employs silk braid,
edged with a narrow plating of rib
bon and bone buttons for decoration.
A tie at the front of the collar pro.
vides a pretty new touch. and the
sleeves are relieved from entire plain
ness by three buttons and buttonholes
at the wrists. Neither of these suits
accepts the flaring sleeve, but both
adopt the straight skirt.

Arabs Suffer From Famine,

"The Drinkers Of Sunshine" as the
Arab shepherds call themselves, are on
the verge of starvation throughout AL
geria, and unless wheat is imported
from America it may have nothing but
sunshine as a steady diet during the
winter.
The threatening famine is the re-
suit of a years drought.
Seventy-fve per cent Of the sheep
in Algeria have died as a result of
the drought, and the Arab Drinkers

pliers, incapable of any work but that
of guarding their flocks, are in dire
straits.
