But you must learn how to wear
your tailored suit and also how to
choose it You want fairly narrow,
well cut shoulders, and skirt that
is slim and straight but with fullness
introduced by means of concealed
pleats or an overlapping front If
your skirt has not this necessary full
ness it will bag at the knees and at
the back and be very ugly. The
length must be determined by your
self-eight or nine inches from the
floor is an average of convenience
and hecomingness. Sleeves must be
sufficiently long to come we'll down to
the hand, and If the hand is large
they should have cuffs or should be
fairly full.
An average rule is that the older
the woman or the stouter her figure
the longer the coat should be. Some
of the new fashions show coats al
most to the hem of the skirt, so long
indeed that they can be used as sepa-
rate coats over a fancy silk frock
The very young, slim girl looks
charming in an eton jacket or any
kind of short, fiaring coatee, whereas
the woman offforty-five would look
RIDICULOUS in that style. An average
is a coat 27 to 80 inches long, belted
II the figure is slim, otherwise not.
The tailored suit should be the most
expensive single item in a woman's
wardrobe. Money here is well invested.
x X k.-Your height of five feet
one and half inches at sixteen years
of age should not discourage you. as
you may grow several inches more
before you reach adult age. Your
weight should be about los pounds.

When We Go Shopping
BY MRS. HARIAND HI. ALLEN.

But if the moths have already nestled
in the fur these methods will not be
sufficient TO remove them; if there are
little 'WddS' where the little worms
have already rolled themselves up in
tufts of hair to begin the destructive
work, IL is necessary to comb them out
with a stiff aluminium comb. The loose
hair that the worm has eaten off will
comb out in the process, and you can
then see by the bare patches just how
will pay to have this done by a reliable
furrier without loss of time
Great care must be used in beating
your furs, especially the less durable
ones, such as squirrel, mole and Per-
sian lamb. a fur that has been dyed
requires more care, too, as general
rule. After the furS have been thor
in clean paper, pasted securely, and
then, as far as security from moths is
concerned, you may now send them to
the cold storage or place them in
cedar chest If the, value of the furs
does not justify storing them, however
they should still have the home care
suggested just the same. If you do
not feel sure of the thoroughness of
the oVerhauling you can give the furS,
remember that the cleaning they will
get in storage is more than worth the
storage charges.
Rates for storage include insurance
against moths, fire and theft from
April to November, and are generally
about 5 per cent of the valuation.
Owners are expected to set valuation
upon them. Stored furS are insured at
the valuation set upon them by YOU
if you wish to assume part of the in
surance risk you can undervalue them
and so secure lower rates. In the case
of expensive and rare furS IL would be
very foolish to do this, however.

WHAT TODAY MEANS
TO YOU.
Taurus.
BY MARY BLAKE.

Taurus.
A fairly good day for ordinary
transactions, but not favorable for
risky or speculative financial affairs
The aspects especially affect market
conditions and efforts should be made
to guard against schemes, plots and
underhand dealings. 1t is not neces-
sary to stop any pending deals, but
moro than ordinary care should be
exercised in entering into any new
ones.
A child born today will be healthy,
mentally alert and very much devoted
to outdoor sports and adventure.
If today is your birthday, you have
wonderful conception of what you
ought to do, but very Ineffective
way of doing it. You are able to de-
wise plans and projects possessing in
disputable worth. When, however,
you attempt to put them into execu-
ton, something always seems to go
wrong; as result of this continued
experience. which in reality is entire
ly attributable to your lack of stick
at-itiveneSS," you place the blame on
your bad luck. Likewise, when you
contemplate the success of others
along lines of endeavor where you
have failed you are all too prone to
by chance.
There is undoubtedly certain ele-
ment of chance in life, but the one
who wins out is the one who takes
advantage of such chances as present
themselves. Little is gained in this
world by railing all the time at your
bad luck: a persistent effort, backed
by untiring perseverance and hon
eSty, as we'll as Sing1eneSS of purpose,
will invariably convert what you fear
is bad luck to good fortune.
In your business life your peSSi-
mism initiates against much mate
rial advancement, and your dislike of
rudgery-uSually so essential to
success-prevents you obtaining the
goal you set out to win.
In your home life you are fairly
happy, but your contentment is al
ways tinged with the unexpressed re-
gret that you do not have those lux
uries and pleasures which you think
luck has given to others
Scott once wrote:
Chance viii not do the work-Chanee sends
the breeze;
Bat If the pilot slumber at the helm,
The very wind that watts rs toward the port
May dash us on the shelves.
Successful people born on this date
are:
George W. P. Custis, author and
painter; Henry o. Houghton, pub
Usher; Joseph M. Toner, physician

liam H Crane, actor; William r.

Care of F'urs During the Summer


The care of valuable furs during the
summer Is always a source of much
anxiety to the woman VINO owns them.
She knows that the moth is a thief
whose work IS much more costly than
that of the ordinary burgiar-one who
needs neither key, fiashlight nor cover
of darkness to do its malicious work.
The moth does not eat the fur itself,
but is attracted by the oil i'll the
leather and cuts off the fur at the root.
The larvae are deposited early III the
spring, but the damage is done later in
the summer when the worm matches
and cocoonS itself at the root of the
fur. 1t is essential, therefore, that the
furS be thoroughly cleaned to remove
all the eggs that may be in them
before they hatch out.
Cedar chests and paper bags may
keep moths away, but they won't
destroy the larvae or the eggs after
they have already been laid in the fur
In fact, they make excellent breeding
places for the moths to sleep and grow
in. Moths lay their eggs in warm and
secluded places, and there the eggs re-
main until hatched, no matter how
cold the temperature to which they are
subjected. Moth balls, spices, tobacco
and cayenne paper may be good pre-
ventiveS, but they are of no avail after
the eggs are laid
When ii comes time to put your furS
away for the summer, give them
thorough cleaning. They should also
he cleaned at frequent intervals during
the summer. This should be done by
beating and whipping the furs regu-
larly with Il flexible stick of rattan,
about twice a month. \ vacuum
cleaner may also be used to advantage.

The Short Red Sport Jacket
BY MARY MARSHALL

red. in season and out. This was
Juan Rosas. who was dictator-tyrant
of the Argentine Republic between
1895 and 1852. He dressed all his
negro troops in scarlet ponchos, and
ordered every male inhabitant of
BuenoS AyreS who wore a coat at
all to wear a scarlet waiStcoat, while
all the ladies were hidden TO wear
knot of scarlet ribbon and to carry
a red fan" In his own house all the
carpets and stuffs were scarlet, and
interesting anecdotes are told con-
cerning the enforcement of his strange
regulations.
Probably every woman in Buenos
Ayres felt rebellious against these
red accessories-because a woman
does not like to be told what she
may and may not wear. Now the
girl with a predilection for red finds
real pleasure in it. Both here and
in France the short sport jacket of
red is considered very smart. The
sketch shows one in red leather worn
with a hat to match. A gilded de-
sign is worked on both hat and jacket.

the repeated invitations on the part
Of Secretary Calhoun, tJohn c. CAL

and made him a family visit. Mrs.
Calhoun, mother of the Secretary, is

zealously devoted to the cause of
Christ. She was intimately acquaint
ed with my father, (the Reverend
Bella Hubbard of New Haven, Conn.,
and she has frequently sent me word
that she desired to see me. / found
Mrs. Calhoun disposed to dwell on
no other subject than that of religion
and that she is no bis gotted sectarlan,
tho a strong EpiScopalian. She eVin-
ces great charity for all denomina-

them with great freedom and the
most religious enthusiasm. ! have
engaged to accompany her when it
is convenient on Sunday evening to
Georgetown to hear a Mr.. McElvaine

talent and Christian zeal He is
said to be one of the most eloquent
preachers in the United States. and

extempore prayer.
'sThe clergy of our church here ap-
pears to me to be more rigid in their
principles and more evangelical in
their opinions than many in the city

To use new soap at once is

An excellent way to remove
ink stains from linen is to pour
melted tallow on the marks
Then wash the article, and the
ink and grease will both dis
appear.
To test the purity Of butter,
put a. bit of it in a teaspoon and
boil it over a gas flame. Real
butter boils, quietly, producing
a quantity of small bubbles;
butter that is not pure crackles
and sputters.

Health Hints
By Bernarr Macfadden.

Commissions may attend any dis
order of the nerves or brain as the
complaint progressively develops.
Until the underlying cause which
is provocative Of the phenomenon Of
conclusive seizure is aScertained
the following treatment is to be rec
commended
The very first effort that should be
made when one suffers an attack of
this character is TO see that the pa
tient gets air as pure as obtainabIe.
If he cannot actually be outdoors he
should have air equally pure.
Place patient in draught if pos
sible. Loosen all clothing about the
chest and neck that would in the
slightest way interfere with breath
ing, then dash cold water over the
face and neck. AS a rule this will
bring about n return to conscious
ness. In case it. should not, cold
water should be applied on three
over face and head Should this not
bring consciousness and the patient
seem TO be fairly comfortable, it
would be advisable to apply hot
pack to the spine as soon as II can
possibly be prepared. Should the pa
tient apparently be very uncomfort-
able, indicated by contortions of the
body, then in some cases 1t might be
advisable TO place a small quantity of
dry salt on the back Of the tongue,
te2spoOnful.
In many cases of attacks Of this
kind il is impossible to expect the
patient to return to consciousness
Immediately. The application of
cold water upon the face and head,
and of heat in the way of hot pack
to the spine, is about the most ef-
fective treatment in the way of bring
ing about a quick return 10 con-
sciousness. II is usually well TO keep
the head up.
4 more radical and vigorous treat
ment for serious cases will be found
in the complete hot blanket pack,
the full hot bath, immersing the
entire body except the head in
a tub of water at 10 degrees to 115
degrees Fahrenheit, for ten to twenty
minutes, and afterward wrapping up
we'll with blankets TO keep warm.
Cold packs may simultaneously be
applied to the head. This treatment
is especially recommended in ure1Aic
lei

Jerry Muskrat Moves.
The wise and canpy look ahead,
And so disaster seldom dread.

There was no doubt about it, the
time had come to move. The water
was already up around Jerry Musk
rats ankles in his bedroom. Well"
said Jerry to himself, 81 guess I've
got to go. This water may not last
long in here, but it will be pretty
damp for a while. I'm glad I've got
that snug room high up in the bank.
If L hadn't, L would have nowhere

He dived down through the tunnel
leading from his bedroom to the bot
tom of the Smiling Pool. He swan
out and up until his head was above

called his castle in the bank. My"
exclaimed Jerry MuSkrat, 1t is all

Now, Jerry is good swimmer. He
is Il very good swimmer. But though
he swan with all his strength, IT was
slow work getting over to the BANK.
The water was rushing down through
the Smiling Pool so swiftly that IT
was all Jerry could do to move ahead
against it. At last he got out of the
swift current, and swimming became
easier. When he was right opposite
the entrance to his castle in the bank
he drew a long breath, dived and
swan TO the entrance, which was
under water. He was surprised to
find how far up in the tunnel that
water was. But at last he came out
Of the water and scrambled up the
long tunnel to the snug room he had
prepared quite q distance back, and
just under the grass roots on the
Green Meadows.
"Phew!r exclaimed Jerry. THAT
was hard trip. But now Tn here
have nothing to worry about. ] will
live here until the water goes down
and my house dries out. l don't like
these spring floods. No, sir. l don't
like these spring floods. I'm always

hate these floods. There's one thing
about il, and that is, they do not last
very long.
