own disappearance and probable con-
nection with the theft.
1t was uncanny to be sitting here IN
cheap boarding house reading about
herself in the papers. One reporter said
that the police were already on the trail
of the wife and a quick recovery of the
money was expected. Harriet tried TO
tell herself that this was newspaper
talk, but It did no good. She had no
idea what would happen to her If they
discovered her now and the newspaper
report sounded horribly convincing.
She tried to think what to do. Would
it be better to stay where she was and
take the chance Of being discovered any
minute, or to slip away and find another
place?

THROUGH A WOMANS EYES
The Way to Go about IL
BY JEAN NEWTON

onstrate it is to pay attention to thc
girls who dress modestly instead OF
to the exponents Of the knee and breast
bone showing style that they themselves
have popularized.
There is no getting away from it
men do set the fashions They do IT.,
however. not by designing them in Paris
or proclaiming them in church. No
creation Of the greatest couturier in the
world can make a style. The designer
merely initiates It. II is made by the
Toms, Dicks and Harrys, whose num-
bers are legion and who pass Judgment
upon it not in church or by reform
committees, but by the seal Of their ap-
proval that Is stamped between the
lines of invitations to dine. to dance
and to be entertained and courtcd.
That is the way fashions always have
been set and always will be set And
when the men become really in earnest
In their disgust for the immodest in
dress that is the way that they will
manifest it. They will shame the girls
they know by looking askance instead
Of admiringly at bare backs and shins
showing and will turn their attentions
to the modest girl. That is the way
they can successfully sponsor the model
costume, not by drawing pictures and
saying one thing and acting another
1t is up to them TO suit the action to
tho word and prove that they mean it.
