Receipts Disappointing
Gross receipts of the campaign

might not even cover expenses.

commodate 1880. The evening
collection was less than $1,000.
Souls Before Money"
Manager Richard Dunn of the
Garden announced that collection
totals would not he annoInced dailv

any.

Real Gardener
Likes to Weed

The real garden enthusiast likes even
the wedding. In fact, that is perhaps
the best way to tell a real gardener.
The genuine sort find amusement and
diversion even in crouching on their
knees removing weeds from lawns and
garden beds. To make the task most
attractive be sure to get one Of the new
kneeling cushions covered with woven
raffia A garden enthusiast says that
the first thing to do Is to have the
right kind Of wedding tools at hand.
This should include IAN old kitchen
knife, trowel, garden fork and an
old table fork" With the last named
instrument all the very small weeds
should be removed. Many persons use
their fingers for these tiny growths, but
the old table fork makes a more thor
ough Job Of 1t and save the finger nails.
A garden enthusiast says that It Is
a good plan when wedding the borders
and garden beds at tbs time Of the year
to save all grass roots that are pulled
out. 1t takes only little more time to
place them in an old tin by themselves.
They should be kept in a dark, cool
place until you have time to make use
Of them. A day or so waiting will do
no harm. These roots are Just the
thing to use to mend the bare spots
that are sure to appear in every lawn
at this time Of the year, and fnending
lawn in this way really takes less time
in the long run than by the usual
method Of seeding 1t. Sometimes large
weeds when taken from the lawn leave
little bare spots and the discarded grass
roots may be placed in these holes.

Dark.Eyed Blonde
Is Classic Beauty

That Venus, goddess Of love and
beauty, had golden hair al poets and
painters seem to be agreed; but when
it comes to the color Of her eyes there
is not such unity of opinion.
Some say she was blue-eyed blonde,
and others insist that she was of that
rare and altogether lovely type-the
brown or black-eyed blonde.
Greek and Roman poest praised
black eyes," says an Italian who wrote
on feminine beauty some 500 years ago,
and all are agreed that the Goddess
saying that the ideal woman must have
hair like pure gold or honey he says.
common custom seems to have obtained
that dark tan or nut-brown eyes hold
the first place among eyes Of all colors."
Another Italian writing at about the
same period says that eyes should be
black like the skin Of q ripe olive,
velvety, fathomless, yet shining like
twin caverns of coal" and he insists
that the hair should, be like golden sum
light.
Yet women were endowed by nature
with golden hair no more often among
the swarthy Italians 500 years ago
than they are today. Where did the
painters find their models? Did the
poets ever md their ideal In the neSh?
AsSuredly, for those italian ladies had
learned the secrets of securing blonde
hair by chemical means, and their skim
was made to seem fair by the use OF
beaches and paints. We are told that
there was one beauty specialist of the
day who had the formula for wash
that would make golden hair from locks
as black as ravens wing" This COM
bination Of golden hair with eyes that
were indeed black like the skin of q
ripe olive" was certainly striking.
You will see q surprisingly large
number of women of this type If you
visit the picture galleries where the
works of the italian "old masters" are
shown. In fact artists throughout the
ages have especially admired the type;
and they have painted the portraits
of the artful beauties of their time who
produced the effect through artificial
means, but with far greater charm have
they portrayed the charms of the women
who were endowed by nature with the
old Italian idea of the Venus combi+
nation of eyes and hair.
Novelists, too, have often chosen thIs
type for their heroineS. Such Is Alex
andre Dumas Blanca Capello whom
he introduces to us as "a charming
girl of Is or 16 with dead white COM
plexion, over which at the slightest
emotion blush would pass EIs =
rosy cloud; hair of that intense blonde
that Raphael thinks so beautiful, and
black eyes full Of fire."

At French Horse Show

The success Of the coat dress Is quite
surprising and may perhaps be accounts
ed for by the wholehearted way in which
the tailored suit has been accepted.
Both styles gained their first popularity
in America, but one must admit the
variety and originality which has been
added to them by the French designers.
although perhaps they found their first
inspiration In their visits to America
and in their flrst-hand knowledge Of
American life.
One Of the most interesting noted In
the Bots recently was In O diagonal
patterned brown and beige Jersey with
collar and cuffs Of white pique. The
skirt had deep yoke. cut the opposite
way of the goods, with o front panel
which ended in slightly fulled eodets.
The back had bolero effect and there
were elbow caps on the sleeves. This
breaking of the line with some type Of
jacket effect Is one Of -, favoritO
methods Of relieving the too severe line
Of the original coat dress. II Is a well
come innovation which we owe to
French designing inspiration.

PARIS.

PARIS.
THE horse show always provides the
very latest things in sports clothes
among the spectators, as we'll as, curl
ously enough. some decidedly formal
afternoon costumes during the day
time shows.
Among the more formal costumes q
dress and hat Of that lovely pervenche
blue that Is almost violet we're worn
with an unlined coat of black crepe.
The double strapping Of the decol-
letage of the gown was repeated in the
fat band Of the same material which
trimmed the tiny hat Of crocheted
straw.
One attractive suit seen there was
In plaid effect in yellow so pale that
1t was almost beige, and . clear red
that seemed very light in comparison
with the wine tones that one sees so
generally. This plaid made the skirt
and came UP at one side under the
belt onto the natural colored shantung
blouse. The skirt was plain in the
back. but fitted to the new silhouette
while the front had a godet on either
side. A three-inch band Of the clear
red was used as a binding around the
bottom of the skirt. The collarleSs coat
Of the plain light yellow was cut to the
waistline in the front and just covered
the hip bones all around. Rather loose
in effect, It was faced with q band OF
the plain red and then with the plaid
back to the under-arm seams. The hat
was q wrapped cap Of the plaid mate
rial. Calf in the lightest possible shade
of beige, piped with red, made the shoes
and matching bag. Here was costume
which was exceedingly smart at the
Grand Palais. and would also be effec-
tive on the golf course
A smart tailored suit of black alpaca
was cut on the bias in the true Vionnet
manner. The elbow sleeves ended with
an exceedingly simple turn-back cuff of
the material, and the neck was light
ened by q glorifled bib effect in white
georgette. The skirt, only 8 inches
from the floor, was circular, with deep
the pajama effect which Is beginning
to be seen more and more. The jacket,
Of the same material as the dress, was
collarless, but had wide revers which
draped themselves as they would. The
cutaway front was widely Tapped and
held to the figure by a button and a
narrow belt.
Another smart tailored suit in black
crepe de chine had a double breasted
jacket and quite long skirt that de-
pended for its fullneSS on a worked
panel at one side. The sleeve finish
and the vest were of white pique.
Coat dresses are exceedingly popular
at the moment in Paris. not only at the
Horse Show, but also along the Avenue
DIES Acacias, which Is filled with prom
enaders every afternoon, now that the
Spring sunshine makes walking q
pleasure.
Often these coat dresses have a vest
or blouse of lighter tone, but occasion
ally the only contrast is given by the
of lingerie collars and per-
raps a tied-on cuff or 8 inches above
the bottom of the sleeves.

Divided Skirts Give
Knockers Hard Race

The newest version Of the trouser
skirt or pajama fashion appears among
the washable house dresses. 1t is a
practical one-piece dress to wear at
home on Summer mornings. And 1t is
not negligee-just a neat, up-to-date
dress for the up-to-date housewife.
Divided skirts for tennis are made
with deep skirt yoke to which are at
tached two skirt sections that might at
first glance be mistaken for a one-piece
skirt with center pleat back and front.
Interestingly enough these new ver-
sions of the divided skirt-all of which
might be traced to the pajama-have
put the fashion for Knockers in the dis
card. The up-to-date Summer girl will
wear tweed divided skirts instead Of
