POSSIBLY HER LAST CHANCE
At All Events, the Object of His Alice tions Perfectly Agreed With
 Her Fiance.

For several minutes the young man did not speak. His heart was too full. It was enough for him to know that this glorious creature loved him ; that she had promised to share his fate.
 With new and delightful sense of ownership he feasted his eyes once more upon her beauty, and as he real ized that henceforth it would he his privilege to provide for her welfare and happiness. he could have almost wept with joy.
 His good fortune seemed incredible. Finally he whispered tenderly:
 "How did it ever happen, darling, that such a bright, shining angel as yourself fell in love with Il dull, stu pid fellow like me?'
 Goodness knows" she murmured absently: q must have a screw loose somewhere"

 The dress pictured here is of navy trieotine. It's half-length sleeves are slashed and faced with crepe-de-chine. The wide opening is bordered with the crepe and ornamented with buttons one square, white button following an- other from neck to hem, in two rows. They also outline the bottom of the sleeve A black patent leather belt, piped with white, could hardly be mar rover, and is loosely adjusted about the waist.
 Many street dresses have panels that emphasize the straightness Of their lines. Narrow braid and small beads in neat rows, maintain the tailored character of these frocks on many of the smartest models, and the strap belt adds it's testimony to the same feature of the style. Small fur neck pieces, for crisp autumn days, will be added when the time comes to wear these graceful substitutes for the suit.

d LONG with new suits for fall,
 A come the new cloth dresses, the one-piece daytime frocks that have made secure place for themselves among street clothes. They employ the same fabrics as suits do-the same sort of decoration and finisl-with more latitude in the matter of trim ming-and have become necessity in the wardrobe. They have an ad- vantage because they are worn with out q coat for early fall and under heavy wraps for midwinter.
 The new arrivals in street dresses disclose designers to be of one mind, at least in the matter of the straight line silhouette. They have developed their ideas in many ways, but the of the styles lies upon the straight-line figure, even when plaits are employed in the skirts. Some of these dresses nave the effect of skirts set on to bodies, under narrow strap belts, placed at a low waist line; but this belt does not break the line from shoulder to hem. Bell sleeves, elbow or three-quarter length appear to have

WAS THE NEIGHBOR'S CHICKEN
Incident That Was Embarrassing, Al though 1t Also Had an Anus
 ing Side to 1t.

Some years ago, while living in the suburbs, we kept a few chickens; our neighbors also had chickens After the garden season was over we let them run, as did our neighbors. In this way I suppose they got more or less mixed.
 One day I decided to have chicken for dinner, and, not liking to kill it myself-my husband being awaygI asked our neighbor if he would kill it for me- He kindly consented SC l brought out the particular fowl I had selected. He killed it, and I thanked him and proceeded to prepare it for dinner
 When dinner was over I went out to feed the chickens. What was my surprise to find among them the fowl I thought l had just eaten. It was my neighbor's chicken 1 had asked him to kill for me.
 Of course. l lost no time in making apologes-and also insisted that they take OUTS instead, and they had a good laugh at my expense.

CTYLES- have become so important O in knitted things for outerwear that garments are named after them as "tuxedos,' ''slip-overs, "tie-backs," and so on, rather than by more reveal ing terms. In wool, silk and fiber silk manufacturers have made smart things for outer wear that deserved to be re- named and are. The sweater-coat has become the "tuxedo' our cid favorite the surplice waist is now ''tie-back," :" and the sweater pure and simple all most is no more-the "middy with various descriptive words preceding this title. the tuxedo and the semi tuxedo have replaced it, aided by new sweater-blouses
 This movement to emphasize style has resulted in the most attractive outer wear for fall that has ever been presented by the knitting mills. These knitted things are for everyone-young or old-but they fit the youth of school girls and young women at college as surely as smooth cheeks and sparkling eyes. Worsted middies in white with collars in navy or cadet blue or jockey red are turned up about the bottom, with fiat pearl buttons calling atten- tion to the fact, and made with elbow length sleeves. also provided with turned-up cuffs. As sure as fate some one will invent knitted hat to com plete this snappy affair for fall

that slips through supporting straps at the sides. This is dignifed coat that has many rivals in fancier stitches and reyers of angora or other wool furs. Very often the revers and cuffs are in white on a colored coat, or in an- other color, as pearl gray on shell pink, gray on navy, white on jade, flame on white
 One sees these knitted tuxedos every where-at the country club, the con- cert, the beach, on the street. Their numbers will increase with the coming of fall and we shall find them in the company of dainty houses like that shown here and with silk skirts This blouse is made of French blue geor- gette with embroidery in black and eerise. It features the bell sleeve and illustrates the tucl-in style, which is at least holding it's own among many over-blouse rivals.
