From the most inexpensive cotton
to silks Of gorgeous hues and striking

proof that designers never forget for

In the showings of models for early

most important colors Of the new Sea-

from the pale tint Of the first budding
leaves to dark shade Of bottle
green that promises to achieve an ex-
traordinary vogue.
There are several tones of this par
ticular color, SO that whether one IL
blonde or brunette 1t Is possible to find
just the right shade to harmonize with
ones hair, eyes and complexion. This
is rather an important point to en-
phasiZe, for the greens of other days
were always a bit trying. Thanks to
the color artists of the present time,
every color has SO many different
tones that there should not be any dif-
ficulty In selecting the appropriate
tone.

"Good Luck have thou with thine
Honor. Psalm 45:5.
Once upon time young man was
walking along the street one morning,
when he chanced to see a ten dollar
bill lying on the sidewalk. He picked
it up, and, not knowing who had lost
it, kept it.
That was luck, matter of chance;
an unexpected unlocked for, unthought
of thing. The bin just happened to
be there when he happened along.
Great things of good or ill have de-
vefoped from little beginnings, accord
ing to the nature of the being expert
encing the little beginning.
What fairy tale might have devel-
oped from that lucky find! The young
man, had he been of a commercial
turn of mind, might have bought some
merchandise, and peddled it, and
doubled his ten; then have made an
other deal, and doubled his twenty;
and so continuing might have some day
become merchant prince. Stranger
things have happened.
But he did nothing of this sort.
"Here's luck,' says he, "and I'm a
lucky guy" He figured that he had
only made start at lucky finds, and
started out on round of hunting to
find more of the same sort. And the
story is that days and months and
years were spent in the foolish task
Of walking, and looking, and hoping
to find other lost bills lying along the
streets. And at the end he was a poor
dottering old man, down at the heel.
