A fetching tailored frock of navy sabardine trimmed with gray corded silk and buttons. - LiL This spring tailor-made is in a style that is both dainty and demure. Navy gabardine is used for its development, and the high collar is faced with gray silk. The blouse jacket may be made without a lining, if desired, and is therefore a suitable design for tub as well as non-tubbable materials. If the "funner" collar is not. desired, how- ever, the netk may be finished in open effect with a military collar. The long one-piece sleeves with pointed lower edge are faced with silk and trimmed with buttons. Added grace is given to the lines of the jacket by the at- tached circular peplum with a seam at the sides. The blouse may be closed either at the center-front or left side- front, or on the lefe shoulder and under the arm. In medium size the entire costume requires 6 yards 44-inch material. If a 'shorter peplum is used, about % yard less material will be required. The home dressmaker. should not at- tempt to cut the blouse without first carefully studying 'the cutting guide. From this it will be noted that the back of the blouse and the back peplum sec- tion are lald on a lengthwise fold of material. To the right of the back pepluni section comes the front, then, still keeping to the right, are placed .the collar and sleeve, all on a length- wise thread of material. The front and the collar are also ar- ranged on a lengthwise thread, while the stay is cut from the strip that re- mains along the selvage edge between the front and the front peplum section, just above the collar. : Finish the belt with a button or braid ornament and the result willkbbe an attractive costume. In velveteen or knit material, the suit is ideal for sports wear. -------------- AAAS MODISH LINGERIE. Quite the Newest Design For a Spring Nightgown. AAA White crepe de chine is used for this gown, which is so simple in outlines and trimming. The yoke and paneled front are tucked in a Greek pattern, the neck and sleeves being finished with val lace. This model can be du- plicated in batiste if preferred. - Che Beauty of Barmony fs Few women seem to realize the ad- vantage, assistance and general help that are obtained from having the tone or note, as it were, that of harmony through and part of the various phases of life. Even educated women and wo- men of more or less nice instincts seem to fail to realize how much can be done by the individual to make a cer- tain amount of harmony in life. If a woman is in the least high strung, temperamental or nervous, it is advisable, if not necessary, that her surroundings should be as much as pos- sible harmonious and in good taste. Unfortunately to carry out the idea satisfactorily more or less money is necessary. But a woman who can plan well and also has good taste can choose her pictures, wall paper, rugs aid fur- niture to look well in a conservative way both singly and as a whole. No matter how few her possessions may be, a woman can have around ber a something that suggests calm and peace wherever the éye rests, Every one is better mentally, phys- ically and temperamentally if the home life is free from disputes, bad temper or irritation from any member of the family. Harmony counts for more In bome life than anywhere, and there it is most important ind farreachihg in its beneficial results. The ofie and only way to obtain harmony in home life is to have. each and every member in the home circle considerate of thie oth- ers in every way--in other words, self control, which =0 mauy do uot think worth while just in the family circle. Observing a certain amount of care in selecting the colors for one's gar- ments is not ouly more satisfactory in the long run to the wearer, but has a pleasing and more or less soothing ef- fect upon others, Few women seem to realize how necessary it is to dress in colors that harmonize with the com- plexion and eyes. Another important point is that as women grow older it is wise to change the style of ciothing as well as the color, so as to as much as possible still bave that harmonious gen- eral effect. < Many of the unpleasant and even dangerous occurrences in life would be done away with if people were more careful in conversation to observe a rule to have every topic one that is conducive to a feeling of general har mony for all. : A certain amount of harmony can be expressed by the attitude of the body, which with some people is merely the ou expression of the working of a soul and mind in harmony and accord with all their fellow beings. Harmony in the speaking voice is a desirable quality. Even, well regulated fones arp rare. That so few people a. ~ Sleepytime Tales ROGER'S NEW TROUSERS. Once upon a time Roger went down town with his mother, He didn't go very often and it was ai new and strange to him. His motn- er gave him the money to pay their fare and he felt very big when he handed it to the condyector. Roger's mother told him she was going to buy him a new suit just like "Dad- dy's" and he was very much delight- ed to have a real man's suit just like his father's. Roger had never worn a real man's suit with trousers aud rea: pockets and when the clerk tried one on him he didn't want to take it off and asked If he couldn't wear it home. His mother told him he might and they started off, Roger trying walk as much like a big man as could. When they reached home his mo- ther told him he might go out ana play until it was time for his father lo come home , and then he ould go to the corner and meet him. to he A A AAP NM A HPA Roger felt so really grown up that he didnt care to play with his shove! in the sand pile, but found a stick which he used as a cane and he prac-| tised walking like father and swing-| ing his cane just like a real gentle- man. When it was time to go and meet his father his mother told him to be sure and go no farther than the cor ner and to wait there until his father came. Roger walked down the street and watched for a leng, long time to see his father get off the car. Many cars passed and no-father came until at last Roger began to get hun- gry and felt more like a bungry lit. tle boy than 'a great big man. All at once he heard someone say: "Well, I declare, if I didn't go right] past my little boy and I didn't know him," and Roger 'lgoked up and there was his father right Behind him. You see his Daddy didn't know | that he had a little man in trousers, | and had gone by Roger while Roger was looking for him. { "Low Cost of | i | 1 Living" Menu | Menu for Thursday BREAKFAST Stewed Apricots Fish in Cream PPatato Cakes - Hot Biscuits Coffee LUNCHEON Veal [Fie Brend and Batler Rhubarb and Fig Conserve Grahom Crackers Cocon DINNER of Green Pepper Soup SUeed Corn Beef Potatoes String Beaws Olive nnd Radish Salad Honey Blane Maoge Cresim BREAKF Hot Bisenit--Mix four cups of flour with two heaping tablespoons of lard, two cups of milk or enough to make a soft dough, and two tea spoons of baking powder.

A controlled, well modulated voice is among the assets in, life. : * Wise women select their friends, if possible, only from those who are in mental harmony, those people whose tastes and points of view are agreeable to them. So called friendship not founded on that harmony dodés only harm. Some few women are fortunate enough to have perfect harmony be- tween mind and body.
