Ing, draping frocks are made in black
or in tan and gray. These are the col
ors which are the most satisfactory for
everyday wear. For the two latter
tones there are many and various
shades that verge to putty and the
lighter brown for which the season is
noted. There is something about the
idea Of choosing a fashionable color
which does great deal to give a wom-
an that feeling Of being in the swim.
And, although she Iay have said for
MS long as she CAD remember that
brown was not her -'olor, she can 60
out and don one of these new glorious
shades of brown with the conviction
that. all her life, she had been waiting
to find just that particular shade
that never before had she really had
anything which became her so well.
If they are made Of chiffon, then the
layers seem to 90 on forever. They
are just one mass of lovely, graceful
folds and they cannot help but be be-
coming because they hold so much,
within their designs, that is essential
to the good looks of woman.

at him and not know better than that"
you're right there!" said Dowden,
heartily. "And now I'll tell you all
there is to 1t. You see, Dave grew
up with cousin of his named Ham,
ilton Swift; they were boys together;
went to the same school, and then to
college. l don't believe there was ever
a high word spoken between them.
Nobody in this life ever got a quarrel
out of Dave Beasley, and Hamilton
Swift was mighty good sort of fel-
low, too. He went East to live, after
they got out Of college, yet they al
ways managed to get together once a
year, generally about Christmas time.
You couldn't pass them on the street
without hearing their laughter ringing
out louder than the sleigh-bells, may
be over some old joke between them,
or some fool thing they did, perhaps,
when they were boys. But finally
Hamilton Swift's business took him
over to the other side Of the water to
live; and he married an English GIRL
an orphan without any kin. That was
about seven years ago. Well. sir, this
last summer he and his wife were TAX
ing a trip down in Switzerland, and

they were both drowned-tipped over
out of rowboat in Lake Lucerne-
and word came that Hamilton Swift's
will appointed Dave guardian of the
one child they had, little boy-Ham-
ilton Swift, Juniors, his name. He
was sent across the ocean in charge
of q doctor, and Dave went on to New
York to meet him. He brought him
home here the very day before you

Not at all," he rejoined, heartily.
"That little chaps freaks would mys-

does. Hamilton Swift, Junior, is the
curiousest child ever saw-and the
good Lord knows He made all chill

little cuss has complication of in
firmities that have kept him on his
other children, never playing, or any

brought him home, and that was prob
ably the reason you thought Dave was
carrying on all to himself about that
jumping-match out in the backyard.
The boy must have been lying there
in the little wagon they have for him,
while Dave cut up shines with Bill
Hammersley.' OF course, most children
have make-beieve friends and com
panlons, especially if they haven't any
brothers or sisters, but this lonely
little feller's got his people worked

Mr.. Dowden's mirth overcame him
for moment; when he had mastered
it, he continued: "Simpledoria-now

supposed to be Hamilton Swift, Jun

And Bill Hammersley is supposed to
he a boy Of Hamilton Swift, Juniors,
own age, but very big and strong; he
has rosy cheeks, and he can do more
in athletics than whole college track

jumped Dave so far, you see."

why Is II there are, or seem to be,
so many fat women these days? 1t Is
certainly not because they are not Civ

and that shops cannot give them an
assortment of well-cut garments which
will minimize rather than draw atten-
ton to their bulk. One hears of diets
everywhere, and the only conclusion
to come to is that the fatteninS-up
process is more or less universal.
A tactful method of combining the
new features of the mode with suita-
bility for the large figure is Fortunate

Line and Design
Garments Simple and Una
dorned; Keynote of Dress.
Gowns Must BE Nodded to Carry Out
the Personality Of the Wsarsr TO
the Utmost.

Perhaps the most noticeable feature
OF the modern styles for women is
gracefulness, observes fashion au.
thority In the New York Times. Their
lines are simple and unadorned, they
follow the figure with beautiful per-
fection, they exhibit the art Of the de-
signer plus the attractiveness of the
woman with real harmony.
Now, one OF the best ways to express
this Idea Is by means of the draped
ana flowing gown, with the draped and
wrapped coat added as an outer cover
ing. The dress may be as thin and as
nimy as the wearer' pleases. 1t may be
unsatisfactory for wind and weather,
but 1t must be, In every particular,
good as to line and beautiful as to de-
sign. Its material must be soft and
ciinging, 1t must have that look of fem
lhlnlty so essential to the modern
styles, and 1t must be designed to carry
out the personality of its wearer to the
utmost. 1t muy be made of silk, a
llght wool crepe or chiffon, as the mat
ter or Fabric Is left entirely to personal
preference; but it must include many
widths of material with panels and
drapings and curved lines galore. That
Is the keynote of the dress of the mo-
ment, and. whether it Is destined for
wear during the morning hours, for af-
ternoon or for dinner, 1t has about II
something of this sort.
