In charge of the millinery department was a scrawny, <§awky "lady-in-waiting," who had £lven me cause for considerable aafoyance by her spinsterly pwyauilies. Once I made that town after a prolonged absence, and missing this woman I breezily inquired of the proprietor what become of her. "She went off and got married," replied the proprietor. - "Got married!" I erctalled. "Whetnell would marry her?" "I did," was the quiet reply. I allowed no grass to grow under my feet, but quickly packed my grip and f eparted, never to return to that store Again.

NUT-BEARING NATIVE TREES Of Them All, the Hickory Is Easily Km Best Known, and Grows - --j • Nowhere Else. Of the nut-bearing Americaa trees, hickories are perhaps the best known, being strictly North American trees, none now growing in any other part of the world. Of the 14 known species one is Mexican, the other 13 growing east of the Rocky mountains. Indiana boasts of six species, of which the shagbark, or shellbark, is the most noted, because of Its nuts and peculiar bark. The wood of most of these specie? is tough, strong and flexible, but because of its value for Implements and foe! the finest trees of our forests nave been sacrificed, the crop of wild nuts decreasing as a consequence. The pecan is the largest of our hickories, being a native of the southern and southwestern counties of Indiana and growing to perfection In the rich, moist soils of river bottoms. The black walnut grows west from western Massachusetts to Minnesota. Its branches are stout and spreading, forming a round-topped tree when grown la the open^ t Too Bright* •' - '* "I tftotight you said that new boy was very bright?"

Michigan. Women *if»ptteg <Hi» handsome tea gown as a dinner dress for home wear. So very beautiful are these tea gowns that in some cases it la difficult to distinguish them not only from informal evening' dresses but from formal ones as well, writes a fhshlon correspondent. There was a time, not far distant, when we considered a negligee as a delicate affair^ always In pale colorings, which made it Impractical to wear anywhere but in one's own room. ?fow most of the models, except those for very Ultimate wear, are in the rich, dark colorings of the Orient, in gay, colorful tones of beautiful brocades and velvets such as those that are used in the most dignified gowns and evening wraps. Made Into Evening Dresses. Many women buy these wonderful tea gowns, and with a few changes here and there convert them Into evening dresses. They are not quite as expensive as the former and may be • little more individual. This type of garment takes its inspiration from the dress of women in Eastern lands; most of them are from the costumes of Japan or those of Egypt. Our Informal robes, which make no pretense of being dresses, are plainly of Japanese origin, They are selected for their usefulness, at the same time endeavoring to get as much of beauty hs possible along with utility. The handsome ones, even of these plain robes, are very expensive, and the best thing to do Is to make them yourself. Don't be afraid to practice on a really beautiful fabric; there is little chance of failing, because they are so very simple. A pretty one which I saw was of a heavy pink silk. It was lined with thin white wash silk and there was an Interlining of lightweight flannel. The garment was perfectly straight and quite unglrdled, the only trimming being a large rounding collar of fur. Preference for Long Draped Lines. There appears to be a preference for long draped lines, the garment usually being cut in one piece, with the lower portion of the skirt much nai rower than at the hips. In many cases the draping swathes the ankles rather tightly. Even the sleeves, cut ID kimono style, are gradually shaped so that they fit the arm snugly below the elbow and are long; some of them coming almost to the tips of the fingers. One new model which I have Just seen has sleeves about four feet long. Such long sleeves seem very remarkable for any garment. You will wonder how the wearer got her arms through them. The sleeve was spwed up the full length just like any nakTOW sleeve, but It was slit at the elbow, allowing the arm to come through the seam. The rest of this queer long sleeve hung like a streamer. This tea gown was of black chiffon velvet an«l was quite untrlmmed, but the Iqng, straight draping was most effective. v Another model of the long draped type is of crushed velvet, dyed in coral and orange--a remarkably striking combination. The effect is obtained in (his way: a water dye and an oil dye are put into one vessel. The fabr|c Is then dipped Into this, and as the water and oil will not mix, the cloth comes out in two tones. The sleeves, which are long and tight, wrinkling on the arm from the elbow to the wrist, are made in three sections connected by cording, which goes in rows about the arm. Weights start at the bottom of the sleeve and continue all the way up it and down the side seams of the gown to hold the drapery of the sleeve in place. IF BACK HURTS USE v " SALTS FOR KIDNEYS J The nfegHgwe' it qfie ittEfle grew in which we may allow ourselves much latitude in the matter of ornamentation, for while some of these handsome gowns have no trimming, others are very elaborately trimnied. One of velvet, made on exactly the game lines as the one Just described. Is lavishly covered with Chinese stencil work. Another Is trimmed with large eyelets carrying out a design. These, Instead of being worked with threads like the English eyelet embroidery, are bound with different colored silks. Still another, of black chiffon velvet, has batik work (p gold. All of these robes slip on over the head. In no dress can art be expressed In quite the same manner as in the tea gown, and women are continually demanding not only greater beauty of design, but of colorings in them. This has brought about some very interesting methods of hand dyeing to obtain unusual color effects. Both velvets and silks are dyed by dipping a portion of the materia! Into the desired color abd wringing It tightly with the hands. The next section of the cloth Is then dipped into another shade and wrung in the same manner, and so on to the end of (he piece. The fabric is then hung up so that the dyes run into each other, making wonderfih shades that vie with the colors of the rainbow. The efforts of those who do this work are centered on obtaining uncommon colors. This they do through the study of lovely old potteries and other pieces of art, especially Persian and Indian things. Bronze shades are among the favorites, and some lovely velvets are done in this tone. Velvet Makes 8tately Tea Qown. A stately type of tea gown is of old blue velvet, combined with chiffon. It is very much embroidered, the chiffon being practically covered with a wonderful design of flowers, ducks and dragons. Many mellow colors of silk blend In this embroidery, although at first glance gold and silver appear to predominate. The embroidery around the neck and sleeves Is a cross-stitch of gold and silver threads. The method of putting this garment together is rather intricate, although the llnea appear simple. In contrast to these stately robes there is the pa jama negligee emanating from the dress in which the women bf China drink tea. China, however, furnishes only the basic idea for these dresses. The pajama negligee is made of bright colored velvets and silks, the trousers tying about the ankles with ribbons of sliver and gold. While the f-plendid tea gowns previously de- Scribed are topped by a headdress, these gay little Chinese costumes are accompanied by jaunty cnp« and slippers t|)flt match them. Deep Cuffs in Form of Trousers. A negligee jtlst Imported Is of doll torange silk crepe embroidered with a very narrow tarnished gold br&Id. The lines of the robe are long and loose, the sleeves in this case being flowing and made in one with the rest of the dress. At the bottom the gown is drawn in to deep cuffs in the form of rousers; these cuffs are weighted and rimmed with the tarnished braid. Another gown which came from Paris at the same time has a slip made of tiers of accordion plaited flame colored chiffon. The top of the slip is finished in Empire style with bands of silver ribbon acrass the shoulders. From these shoulder straps Is swung a long cloak of brocaded velvet In the same bright tone. The Cloak sweeps across the back in cavalier fashion, leaving the frilly chiffon slip to form the front of the dress. . ; \ _ LONG BLOUSE TO STAY Over-the-Skirt Garment 8o Comfort- | able Milady Will Likely AM to • Her Supply. The woman who has once come to know how comfortable one of the straight over the skirt blouses really Is will never permit herself to be without several of these garments. This means that in all probability the long blouse, so very long in winning acceptance in America, will never go ont of style again. course, the waist length blouse has Its place. It Is the only thing to select as the accompaniment of many suits, and the very stout woman will probably find that discovering a long blouse that is becoming to her figure Is a difficult task, but for the average figure these long blouses are very becoming, and there can be no question as to their comfort. There is never any fear of skirt and blouse separating, and certainly the long blouse is easier to get into than the waist length model, which must be made to fit the figure by means of general adjustment when it is put on, whether or hot ft Is really a fitted affair. The long blouse is either slipped over the head and perhaps drawn in a little at neck and waistline, or hooked or buttoned a trifle on the shonlder, at the side or back and the entire costume is shipshape. '-"fftraw on Danee Frocks. t, , CWi lilt is trlmimng her winter evening frocks with straw. Quite a novel Idea, Is It not? The frocks are masses of tulle and the straw is put on in bold embroidered designs, sometimes including metal threads or even wool threads. Cherult Is also edging the decolletage of debutante frocks with plaited ruchlngs made of narrow satin ribbon. One little frock of pale pink taffeta has a rounded-out neck and very abbreviated sleeves, both neck and sieves edged with a quilling of pale blue satin ribbon. Feature Eton This Spring Popular Jacket Likely to Hold' Prominent Place; Pony Type of Coat in Limelight. No sooner Is one season's style question settled than the season immediately to come becomes a problem, and spring style bulletins are with us. It is too early to make any safe prediction as to what will be the dominant i>ote In spring suits, but it is safe to say that the Eton of bolero jacket will be featured to some extent. In the first place fabrics still are scarce and very high in price, and for the sake of economy a suit with a little waist length Jacket has much In its favor. Suits of this type are generally very becoming to slender, youthful figures. Late Paris reports say that the pony type of coat will also be much featured in the spring s\jit. In many instances short sleeves will be used and many Interesting collars are being developed, such as the directoire and Medici. Skirts will almost certainly be fuller than those at present displayed in tailored apparel, and frcyn present Indications there will be a tendency to let this extra fullness or width in at the sides in the form of plaits, plaited panels, etc. The tunic In various forms will also be shown. Navy blue will, as always, be well up in the color procession, and suits will be brightened up by many vivid color touches in the trimming. The early spring styles are shown to a large extent in the models brought out by the best designers for wear at the southern resorts. The suits and gowns worn by society's leaders at these fashionable gathering places usually give the public a very fair idea as to what the early spring days will bring forth, sartorlally speaking.
