heavy dark fringe of lashes, clear,

her mouth was wistful.

organdie, pique, linen and other lik-
able washable weaves as add the
touch that tells" to our costumes
these days!
The best part Of the story is that
these intriguing tri1es, which carry
such an unmistakable air of feminine
charm, are SO inexpensive they are
within the reach of all, and If one can
sew even little, or crochet, one can
dress with the aid of these embellish-
ing little fantasies, which are so east
~ made, to look like "a million" at
cost next to nothing.
The new organdie blouses are ador-
able. The model at the top in the pic
ture is especially attractive, being
styled after unique pattern which
stresses novel high girdle effect done
in tucks, together with the fact that
it is handmade, gives it an exclusive
ness all it's own. Why not copy this
dainty blouse? In running the tucks
be sure to use the best Of thread.
Take infinitely fine stitches for best
results. By the way, it's fashion-wise
to wear with your light gray or string

organdie blouse. In nandmaking these
you can get thread an exact match
which does not fade with laundering.

nothing so bizarre, or, to the student,

the assured safety of those pied wag-

CITY tree must be pruned-that is un-

for the pruning take the utmost care
to avoid causing any inconvenience to
the birds. This care is applauded by
those who are most ready to criticize
the efforts of the city corporation.
Since first the wagtails came, there has
been a political upheaval in Ireland;
new parties have arisen, old things have
passed. But, when Autumn paints the

question only is on the lips Of the Dub

And sooner or later, when the winds

Astronomers here are working on a
