Among the ideas" exploited in chill

A lovely jeune file party dress which

Specialists in children's frocks use
very narrow black lace insertion on
delicate voiles and tinted organdies or
chiffons with most charming results.
Also 1t is the fashion to stitch row and
row of tiny black ribbon on sheer ma
terials. These ribbon rows look espe-
clally interesting on gay fiowered fab
rics.
The vogue for bright red is an out

the season. The coloring also bespeaks
the mode, as it carries out the tones OF

Some of the prettiest summer bon
nets have leghorn crowns or trans
parent lace brims. The dainty hair
crowns are usually accompanied with

Something to
Think Ab0ut
r. z WALKER
SELF-MADE HAPPINESS
By r. a. WALKER

yX7HATEyER it may be with re-
w gard to your bonny-faced friends,
their content and easy conscience, the
idea that you cannot be as happy and
~carefree as they, is usually mislead-
ing.
To make ones self happy ought to
be ones chief purpose in life, quite
apart from the thought of wealth or
station. There is no sense In going
around with SOU faces, hard-drawn
lips and creased foreheads.
Why carry gloom about with you,
when 1t lies within your natural power
to diffuse sunshine among others. and
bask In sunshine yourself?
The habitual crouch, the man and
woman who are continually finding
fault with the weather, imagining Ills
and seeking every opportunity they
can conjure up to air their grievances,
are not adopts at making friends or
keeping them.
They have no passionate kindness,
no essence of love. no magnetic quail
ties of heart or soul, so they run mad,
and in their frenzies become a menace
to their intimates and all the world.
They may tell US that happiness can
not be self-made, yet they belle this
affirmation by exhibiting their ability
to make themselves miserable.
If this same force were exercised as
it should be, it would be found equal
ly capable of producing geniality,
gladness, animation, hopefulness and
high spirits.
And herein is the evidence hat
everybody has the substance within
him to create his own happiness.
That we mortals should waste our
years In ignorance of this patent truth
Is difficult to understand. We censure
Others for our dismals and doldrums,
continue to NOPE, brood and sulk, In
stead of flnging open the doors of our
dark castles and stepping forth into
the cheerful, life-giving sunshine,
flooding the heavens and importuning
us to enjoy 1t.
When we once understand this, we
shall wake up some delightful morning
and find ourselves in an arcadia of our
own creation, beautiful, lovely and in
spring beyond our fondest dreams.
And then, we shall all be strolling
down the lovers lane, supremacy
happy in the happiness of our own
making, and, not impossible, we might
find ourselves on the edge of heaven

finished by Fisher in gray-blue, with
