Doris
That would be beautiful" I ex-
claimed. FOR Persian embroidery Is

Then that settles IT," answered
Doris Il shall have enough not only

Il like the way the velvet jacket

while these insets on the sleeves are
striking" commented Doris.
Don't you admire the blue velvet

Il do. indeed. and I shall mode
mine on the same lines, for I'm
very fond OF small hats in winter

SHE Dis SSES IhE tSE Ol
PERSIAN EMBROIDERY
on SUITS.

one day this week went with one
OF my newspaper friends 70 a meet
ing OF society women. who were dis
cussing some OF the acute social
problems OF the day. All the women
were beautifully dressed. and that
was the reason why Doris Tremayne
thought I'd like 10 go with her.
For some time we listened 20 vari-
Gus speeches from women who really
achieve much for others, despite
their many social engagements.
Then, during an interlude, Doris
said:
That's the sort OF suit should
like II I could afford ore for very
day OF the week"
Which do you mean" I ques-
toned. for I had not been following
the direction OF Doris's chances.
That blue velvet affair with the
blue duvetyn skirt" replied Doris,
indicating the original of the pic
tured model
"Oh. do you like that" I queS-
toned. for my taste runs TO more
severely tailored models.
Il certainly do" was the enthusi-
astic answer OF my friend.
It's rather pretty" I conceded,
after studying it for a few moments.
Rather pretty, you grudingly con-
cede" said Doris. Il think it's stun
ming, especially for young woman.
! Don't you like the color, if the style
doesn't appeal TO you?"
/ Yes. ! must say I admire the
color immensely" 1 announced, "for
I'm always partial 10 blue
Il think the combination OF the
velvet jacket and the duvetyn skirt
is interesting" said Doris.
yes. and the circular skirt gives
la chance TO Introduce some lovely
color" / remarked
Yes" assented Doris. that little
bind OF Persian embroidery about
the hem Is pleasing, and the skirt
is lined with red"
That's so" I replied. as the
wearer Of this appealing costume
walked toward another Of her
friends. and thus revealed that the
front was shorter than the back"
"I suppose it's really imperative
10 have a lining in a circular skirt,
commented Doris
Yes. for it falls in ripples about
the figure. and a hem-lining is one OF
the best ways of insuring neatness
OF course. Il could be lined in match
ing fabric. but I think the contrast
ing color Is better" I said.
How do you like the Persian en-
brOidery?" I questioned. as I noted

ATHLoNE, Ireland (By Mail. -
Two sisters, Misses Una and Lena
sharkey. OF strokestown. County
Roscommon, are prisoners in the
military barracks here after a series
Of alleged prosecutions by the Crown
forces which have made their case
one OF the most celebrated in West
ern ireland.
An interesting feature OF the case
was the determination Of the two
young women. both OF whom have
visited the United States, TO keep
the American flag flying over their
shop. "rhe American Novelty
Stores" at Strokestown.
The White Cross Associations re-
port on the affair says the girls re-
poatedly raised the flag. but each
time IL was hauled down and seized
Finally the fiagpole was removed
and a threat made. with a revolver
at the girls head. that if the flag was
again shown the house would be
burned"
The young womens troubles he
gan. It is said. when a retired police
Official conceived the idea that they
were turning their shop into an ann
munition factory because they had
a. knitting machine in their store.
The sisters encouraged him in that
belief. When the joke on him be-
came public the aged police oiTcial
became the town butt. This made
him so angry. the wnits Cross re-
