THERE are two most appealing fea-
i lures among the newly arrived
models in the blouse shape-one is the
remarkably beautiful color effects in
those blouses in which two colors are
combined, and the other iS-price.
BlouSes are cheaper than they were,
to the joy of women who are prone
to extravaganza in this quarter as in
millinery. BlOuSeS are regarded much
in the same light as hats; both are
required always to be decorative,
after one fashion or another, and to
present themselves in several distinct
styles ever varying and always chic.
There are blOuses for all occasions as
there are hats, and they play impor-
tant roles in toning up the costume.
The over-blouse with short exten-
sion below the waistline and narrow
belt or girdle, and the tie-back styles
in dress and semi-dreSS models, appear
to outrival the tuck-in mode, although
the latter is well represented. GeOr-
gette crepe grows dearer to the hearts
of women apparently-no other fabric
holds quite the same place in their es-
teen as this beautiful material. and
it seems made for blOuses-the gar
ment and the fabric suit each other to

BEAUTY is SOUGHT BY ALL
Attractiveness, the Ambition of Wom
an and She Has Not Tried to Con.
ceal It, From the World.

Beauty? That has been the ambi-
ton Of woman from time immemorial,
and she has not even tried to conceal
it from herself or the world. And the
truth of the matter is that the vanity
of the male sex has been even more
inordinate than that of the female, as
we find this desire expressed in the
feathers of cock birds and the pelage
Of other animals, and not by any
means obscure in the male human be.

The secret of beauty is to be found
in the mind. Every human face and
figure is merely the physical confor-
nation of the mind which directs it,
and the same is true of lower animals.
1t always has been my belief, says a
writer in Forum. that if a few chill
dren could be isolated from contact
with the masses, and their environ

PIcKEREL-WEED FLOWERS.

sWe don't smell very sweet, but
we're bright and gay and pretty,
said the Pickerel-Weed flowers.
"But why have you such a strange
name?" asked the Fairy Queen who
had come to the pond to talk to the
Pickerel-Weed family.
Because" said one of the BIOS
SONS, "they say that the pickerels lay
their eggs in our leaves. They like
other water weeds, too, but we're
among the ones they like, and some
how or other, the honor Of the name
was given to us alone. That is they
haven't named any Of the other wild
water weeds or water wild weeds, or
whatever you'd call US, after the pick
erels.
"They could have named other flow
ers which grow in ponds after the
pickerels, because of the fact that the
pickerels lay their eggs in different
plants.
But they didn't want to do that.
They wanted to give us the whole
honor, so that folks would know that
the pickerels laid their eggs in our
leaves.
''If they lay them in other weeds,
no one is the wiser. That Is, no one
is the wiser from the names.
There are other fishes, too, who
lay their eggs in weeds, but l don't
know uhothor anv 0f tho others have
given their names to the weeds or not.

FASHIONS IN BRIEF

Touches of lingerie are appearing
on suits and dresses for spring.
Cotton fabrics and cotton braids ap-
pliqued on cloth are a spring feature.
Lockets fashioned from cameo pins
are worn suspended on black silk rib

Serge is found oftenest in the
straight little afternoon frocks which
make a virtue of the utmost simple

Many afternoon frocks have a long
cape to 60 with them in the same COL

woolen goods.
Lace sleeves are featured in some
Of the elaborate new blouses. They
end at about the elbow-or q little
below it-and the points Of the lace
are finished with big colored glass
beads.
Crepe de chine, crepe georgette.
mousseline de sole, charmeuse and
