History repeats the gossip that she had a shrewd and cal- culating mind, that she was a clever politician, an influence on those men who ruled the empire, and this is said with an air of somewhat disputing that accentuated femininity which was her fame. . Men must have put forth these thoughts. No woman would see in two statements any divergence. the traditional, the ombination. rs tailored garments and masculine manners and habits is often, or, so often, a weak- ling, one governed by emotionalism lacking in every detail of er brain work the scheming, the mbitions ility of power hat is nearly always the hidden ource of a woman of ultra-femi- so clever that she perceives that in this-guise she can gain her {power over men more than by argu- tion of strength.

What is a household financial budg- et? It is is a schedule which dis- tributes the year's income evenly over the year, so that no one season will bing a staggering and unplanned-for expense. By using a financial budget, the housekeeper will save in spring and summer, as well as during the winter months for her winters sup- ply of coal nd, on the other hand, she will save 'during the winter months for any large expense which the warm weather will bring. In making a financial budget one should divide the items of expense under two heads, ‘necessitles” and “higher life.” e Under the head of “necessities’ will come rent (or, if the home i8 owned. taxes and upkeep) and insurance on the home: operating expen h subdivision will include fuel, light and | 1aundry; food and clothin. S Under the head of “higher life will come personal insurance, such a8 life insurance, accident policies et cetera; savings, doctor, dentist. nurse and medicine (these two are not list- ed as “necessities” because they are every woman Knows— But what this to do with fash- ior, the approaching spring and the desire for lace frocks and many roses? It has this to do with it.

Black chantilly lace has been used frequently by the dressmakers on black velvet and satin gowns for the winter, but white and cream lace has i fallen ' into disuse during the war epoch. Now it returns to fashjon. It may not be widely accepted. Women say they like it. then<pass it by, as a rule. They do not quite see its pos- bilities. In the frock shown in the sketch there is an artistic attempt to make the lace serve as a background for ugenie trifles, the kind of things she liked to wear; there is a striking sash of rose-colored tulle which is further enlivened by scattering pink roses over it in the back. All the im- portance is given to the back of this gown, as its fron* remains simple and girligh. The tulle scarf s rather admirably arranged across the normal waistline to avoid bulkiness. The large roses hold it down against the figure, form- ing a belt. From each end the tulle loops itself into hip-distending streamers. Such a frock covers much ground. In genial climates it can be worn in the afternoon, as it is high at the back of the neck. In cities where one has continuous calls for an in- formal frock that will fit into a restaurant dinner, an evening at the play, with or without a large pio- ture hat, this especial type of gown is in strong demand. It has the appearance of ushering in the spring. It is gay, ultra-fem- inine, and it need not be confined to the possessor of blue eyes; there are soft brown ones that also know the old. old game. HOME ECONOMICS. BY MRS. ELIZABETH KENT. A Valentine Party. i Parties for the young people at the awkward age are difficult to handle. Yet the youngsters from twelve to [sixteen do love a party and a well not constant necessities), philan- thropic activities, educational ex- penses and amusements, including books, gifts, music and so forth. But, of course, budgets for different families must vary slightly. to suit the conditions. For instance, if a semi-invalid is building a budget for herself she must list the doctor: services under the head of “necessi ties.” 1t a professional musician is building a_budget he will put the purchase of music under the head of “necessities.” and so on. After deciding which items of ex- pense come under the head of “neces- sities” and which under the head of “higher life,” in your particular case, the next step is to distribute the monthly income wisely over these two divisions. Eighty per cent of the monthly income should be allowed for “necessities” and 20 per cent of it for “higher life"—that is, with the aver- age Income. (Very large incomes will have a smaller sum allotted to food, for instance, for a person can eat only just so much.) Of the 80 per cent which will go for “necessities,” 20 per cent will go for rent, 25 per cent for food, 15 per SECOND EMPIRE.

A post office could be organized with post master or mistress and postman. Each child is required to bring at least one valentine com- ! posed by himself, and as many more as he likes. The postman collects tho valentines and delivers them to the postmaster. Then each child goes to the post office window, ar- ranged with a table and curtains at ia doorway. and asks for his valen- ines, which are delivered to him. Care must be taken that every child recelves at least one, and preferably two. As valentines are never signed, the hostess can easily take care of that Then a child got up as a bishop may play the part of St. Valentine himself and give to each guest a special comic verse, with a snapper bonbon, in which he is urged to culti- vate some specia virtue for the year following. Then the bonbons are snapped, the paper caps donned, and a procession organized for re- freshments, for which the seats at the table or around the wall should be marked with large red hearts ring the name of each guest. Red uld be the prevailing color of the the frosting and the punch.
