A Serviceable Hat.

Many women must consider SerV-

the Spring bonnet They want a
beautiful hat, and one that is at
tractive and becoming. but they also
must have a hat which will stand
up under wear and the elements.
Very soft hats. made o: materials
which can be rushed without dam
age, are gene, ally serviceable. Felt
hats are hardy and hats made of
pliable straw are also designed for
long wear. These hats can even be
sat upon accidentally and severely
creased without hurting the shape or
material. Felt Cloche, draped turban
and pliable straw hats are all recon-
mended for long service and satisfac-
tory wear.
Sometimes n stiff hat, because of
the very stiffness of the material, will
also be very Serviceable. The hat
will stay in shape under almost any
circumstances, and will weather most
storms. Rough straw sailors and
beavers. come under this category.
Hats thai are mounted on SoiI>
frames are unusually strong, too.
OF course the larger and wider
hat is the more knocks il is likely
to receive Small hats, either brim
less or with close brims, keep their
shapes best, and naturally get less

If you are going travelling. remem-

Clues to Character
Dimples and Disposition.
copyright. 1926.)
BY J. q. ABERNETHY

Dimples in the cheeks occupy two
distinct places. There are dimples
of praise and dimpIes of mirth. Dim
pies of praise are at the outer sides
OF the cheek and those of mirth at
the outer corners OF the mouth. All
are considered signs Of an agreeable
disposition.
In those noted for their mirthful
dispositions the little dimples are
found in clusters at the outer corners
of the mouth. These cunning depres-
sions add to beauty of expression of
the face and depict Il funlovinG
nature or wit.
While they are considered an
element of beauty. they are also tndi-
cations of character to those who read
them Alright. Persons with a great
store of vitality have many dimples
and seem to enjoy life to the fullest,
making the most of whatever lot be-
falls them.
Some dimples are deep and round,
while in others they appear to be
long. The round ones indicate an
agreeable nature given to flattery and
formed for sociability. Persons who
are not satisfied with their dimples
showing while laughing and talking
but seek to expose them at all times
by comforting the features, are vain
and shallow.

! believe In teaching Il child to take
pride In hts family. There is nothing
so fine as the pride a boy has in his
father, the sinful joy he shows in the
success Of his brothers and sisters.
1t is fine to see a child struggle to
live up to the standard his family set
years and years before he was born.
That is, of course, provided that the
family tradition was built on honor
that bore no hint of money

also acquired riches, fine. Money is

Pride of family that will admit of
honor and poverty in close associa-
ton Is riches in itself. The children
of suci1 a. family can afford to scrimp
bit.
The thing that does harm is to
teach the children that the member
of the family who failed to pile up
riches is q failure and barely to be
| tolerated, while the one who ''gOt
there" is to be given the place of
honor, heralds and trumpets and loud
hurrahs regardless. That is not good
either for the child or for his parents.
Nor is 1t particularly good for the go
getter. A little snubbing might do
some of them good.

Well and good for Anatole France

men--and other women-no such
theory holds good. They consider
women as they would iron chains-to
be judged by their weakest links.
The well dressed woman is not really
well dressed if only on occasions YOU
see her dressed in perfect taste. The
girl who works in your office is not
really neat and well groomed OF one
day out of five she appears with
dowdy frock and frowsy hair.
Especially in this country it seems
necessary for women to keep up the
standard necessarily looking theM
best. And possible husbands have a
better means of telling whether there
is sonnet thing durable in girls good
looks and good dressing than was once

by the board of management.
This design, now used also upon the

The wheel Is seven-eighths of an inch
in diameter and of gold, with 13 Spokes
(for thirteen original States), and a
field of dark blue enamel upon it's tire
bearing the name of the society in
gold letters. Upon it's outer rim, oppo-

golden distaff II inches long filled
with platinum flax. The ribbon to be
worn with the wheel is dark blue with
