metal is knitted in the front in q
rather complicated way.
Reverting to the type of suit re-
ferred to previously as being one
which has taken a tremendous hold
on the public taste at the present
time, 1t is interesting not only as a
tinuously varying demand which gives
rise to the mushroom success from
time to time Of quite obscure dress
makers and the equally sudden fall
Of others in the proportion that they
are able to create new type or popu-
larize an old one at the crucial mo-
ment when that particular style hap
pens, for some reason or another, to
please the public to an unusual de-
gree.
AT the present time O'Rossen. the
tailor, Is big competitor Of the dress
maker There is nothing striking about
the suit which has been his greatest
success. 1t consists Of a straight skirt
and q coat almost exactly like the
oldtime riding-habit jacket with snug.
fitting coat sleeves, small collar and
long revers to the waistline where one
button is placed in link form. The
coat has a slight flare. To be abso-
lutely what Is demanded at the mo-
ment the suit must be of lightweight
iron gray checked material, the checks
being so small that they are almost in
visible.
Vest Blouse Comes Into Prominence.
The popularity of the suit, of course,
creates a like demand for blouses.
This is always welcome news to the
blouse makers, who, having the vari-
able winds of fashion so seldom fill
their sails during the last few years,
are on the alert to take advantage of
everything that will stimulate their
business. Consequently they are bend
ing all their energies toward creating
pleasing models.
The great popularity of the tailored
suit brings into unusual prominence
the vest blouse. All Of the smart shops
now are specializing in these, and
among the most chic of the recent
models is the gilet blouse, the front
of which is developed in soft pearl
gray kid embroidered in blue. 1t has
the back and sleeves of pearl gray
georgette.
In almost every instance the gilet
blouse has the back and sleeves of
contrasting material, usually of a
sheerer fabric than that used for the
front. Double-breasted vest blouses
of the mannish type have fronts of
embroidered linen with sleeves and
back of sheer Organdie.

some charming blouses Of the gilet
sort from white satin and embroi-
dered them in copper and black.

of his poultry until he could carry II
to his home.
As l told you, this happened long
before Mr.. Fox was clever; he would
not do such a thing now.
So he called on Mr.. Possum and
told him if he would take care of the
chickens he would give him two fine
ones to pay for his kindness.
Mf. Possum said he would and that
he would store them safely away un,
der a rock by his house where there
was a cave.
Mr. Fox trotted back and forth all
night with fat chickens which he put
in the cave under the rock, but he did
not know that as fast as he put them
away Mr.. Possum carried them to an
other part of the woods.
When it was almost daylight Mr
Possum took another chicken and de-
parted for good, and when Mr.. Fox
looked into the cave he found only a
few of the many chickens he had
placed there.
Mr.. Possum was nowhere to be
found. He had moved bag and bag,
gage to another home, but Mr.. Fox
hunted until he found him, and the
trouble began.
Mr.. Possum said he was not the
same Mr.. Possum. "E never lived In
the place you speak of, and l do not
l.now about any rock or cave or chick,
ems; you have the wrong fellow, Mr.
Fox" he said.
Mr.. Fox was surprised at the bold
manner of Mr.. Possun, for he was
sure he was the one he was looking
for; still there was a chance that he
had made mistake.

MIR. OWL is WISE BIRD.

MANY years ago, long before Mr..

Mr. Owl a wise bird, or any OF the

was trouble between Mr.. Fox and Mr..

he arrived he found that the poultry

The only trouble was that he had

Tapestry Embroidery Affords Winsome
Decorations Similar to Those of
Grandmothers Day.

Tapestry embroidery, the very same
work our grandmothers did as girls,
is one of the newest things in needle
work. 1t is worked on the soft Aida
canvas or on the coarse weave con-
gress canvas, and is done with silk
or wool yarn and tapestry needle.
If the work is to be done in cross
stitch work the Aida canvas is the
better. For other tapestry stitches the
congress is preferred.
Any filet lace pattern may be done
in tapestry as well as the many pat
terms designed for the work itself.
Cross stitch is really the simplest
method and the artistic effect depends
only on having the top threads of the
little Y which fills every square mesh

HOW DO YOU SAY IT?
BY c. N. LURE
Common Errors in English and
;. How to Avoid Them
"SlT" AND "SET."

DROBABLY it is impossible to teach
the great majority Of Americans
the difference between the two words
''sit'' and ''set," but grammarians have
been trying to do. so for many years.
'Come in and set down." says ones
host. He is hospitable, but his gram
mar is faulty. He should say, Come
in and sit down."
Whether a hen sets on a nest or
sits on it is not certain, in grammar,
since the point is disputed, but it is
quite certain that you do not sit
hen on her nest; you "set" her there.
1t is incorrect to say: "The vase sets on
the table; say, instead, 'The vase
rests, or stands on the table, Do
not say, The tlagpole sets firmly in
its socket" but say, The. tlagpole is
set firmly in its socket" If you prefer,
you may say, instead, The flagpole
sits firmly in its socket"

these articles, shortly after their dis

were used in France to celebrate
events of National import in 1906.
