PARIS.—It is smart to have a frock of unusual color trimmed with lace that has been skilfully dyed to match. It is smarter stlll to wear a frock with lace draperies or panels posed over a strongly contrasting back- ground. Lace frocks have been pre-eminent- ly race frocks in Paris this sum. mer. Not for many years—perhaj never before—have French dres: makers used lace so frequently for frocks to be worn at the races. All of which would not be especially pertinent to the Americah woman were it not that these race frocks set the stamp of approval on a type of frock that is always agreeable to the taste and style of the American woman. Jenny sent a mannequin to Les Hales wearing a frock of white lace trimmed with gold—a girdle of gold and gold passementerie ornaments edging the neck and forming a band at hips well below the gold girdle which was placed @t the so-called normal waistline. It attracted at- tention, but it offers less practical suggestion than another frock seen at the mame assembling of smart French women. This consisted of beige silk lace draped over black foundation. An enormous black v vet flower at the left side, black loves, black suede shoes worn with helge stockings, and a hat of beige straw faced with black velvet—and the picture is complete. One American woman in Paris found much comfort apparently from this troc T am going to make note of that,” she said. “I can have a slip made from one of the many black evening gowns that are hanging in my closet left over from last -vear. 1 shall buy one of those lace robes that the department stores always offer at such tempting prices. 1If I cannot get it in beige I'll take white and-have it-dyed. Then presto! Put my lace on my made-over black slip and I'll have a frock that, if T weren't too honest, I might pass off as Paris made.” No one tries very hard to keep the run of the various sorts of laces that stock the shelves of the lace dealers. No two lace dealers have exactly the same system of naming them. There and genuine egg- 2 illustrating a wonderful putt.

The wise woman sat sewing tran- quilly in a shady corner of her veranda when T dropped in upon her one day last week. She was making a sheer little black-and-white summer frock that lay lightly upon her lap, looking cool and attractive even in its unfinished shape. ‘There!” she said brightly. *“Today I've basted in the sleeves.

Of course. it is a bad thing when it Some of the iittle people of the Green Forest and the Green Meadows have a great deal of pa- tience. Some of them have no pa- tience at all. Chatterer the Red Squirrel is one of those with little patience. He cannot keep still long enough to be patient. But this isn't the case with Reddy Fox. No one can be more patient than Reddy when he thinks there is anything to be gained by it. Hiding under Farmer Brown's barn, Reddy felt quite safe. He felt gure no one had seen him go under there. He was certain that no one else was like- 1y to come poking about under there. He felt sure that he could st as long as he pleased. So he settled himself comfortably and prepared to be patient. He would wait until the way was clear for him to steal out == had to_keep right at it until it was done. Besides, 1 generally need it for some social occasion.” “Well.”” smiled the wise woman, “I try to spend an hour a day with my needle, just as I keep some knitting on hand to pick up as resting work. You see. if you go quietly about the making of a dress in an unhurried way, doing just one thing on it each day, it does not weary you or make you ner- vous. It gives you plenty of time for all the other demands of each day, and first thing you know you have a finished garment! “Of course, you have to begin on it early enough so that you do not have to get it made by a certaln minute. That always means mnervous tension, hurry, bungling fingers and a half-finished dress. It is almost never satisfactory. By looking ahead and deciding about what you are going to need during the coming season, then getting the mate- rial deliberately and thoughtfully, and making it up by working on it peace- fully for an hour a day., the dress is generally ready and waiting .on its er by the time you want to wear it. “Another.- thing. If you meke a frock hastily, you must work on it no matter how hot the weather is or how many interruptions you have.

Now, being under the barn, of course, Reddy could see nothing of what was going on outside. But it isn't always necessary to see in or- der to learn what is going on. Red- dy's ears, those sharp, black little ears, often tell him quite as much as his eyes. He heard Farmer Brown enter the barn, and a few minutes later he heard Farmer Brown's Boy enter the-barn. He knew it was Farmer Brown's Boy because he was whistling. Then he heard the stamping of hoofs and the clatter of harneks. Presently he heard those thumping hoofs leave the barn and the foot- steps of Farmer Brown and Farmer Brown's Boy as they followed. Then he heard the sound of wheels and he knew that Farmer Brown and Farmer Brown's Boy had driven off down to the hay flelds. Still he didn’t move. He could hear the faint sounds of Mrs. Brown at work in her kitchen. He could hear Sammy Jay crying “Thief! thief! thief! over in_the Old Orchard. He could hear Wel- come Robin crying “Cheer up! cheer up! cheer up!” He could hear the hens in the hewyard oackling and making a great fuss about nothing. And every once in a while he heard that best-of-all sound, the *'Quack! quack! quack!” of the Ducks just back of Farmer Brown’s house. For a long, long time Reddy didn’t move. He knew that Jjolly, round, bright Mr. Sun was climbing higher and higher in the blue, blue sky. Gradually the various sounds ceased until at last it was very quiet. Then Reddy got to his feet and crept out from under the barn. Very cautious- 1y he peeked around the corner. The way was clear. Swiftly, but sllentl?'. orouching very low, Reddy stole around behind some bushes until he ‘was where he could peep through the grass and see those Ducks. ‘One, two, three, four, five, &l seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven! counted Reddy. They were young Ducks, but my! how big they were! ‘They were squatting down, for it wa: too hot to be moving about, and they were dosing. ° Reddy counted them all over again. Then he did it a third time. Each time he counted his mouth watered a little more. They were in a little yard, but the wire fence around them was very low.

For instance: Smith writes a breezy., unconven- tional article on the modern woman. Wilkins reads it. Now Wilkins has pre- | conceived, reinforced-concrete ideas {concerning the modern woman. He DC YOU READ WITH TLINDERS f considers her a menace, a nuisance, a |doggoned catastrophe in general. He doesn't like the way she wears hgr hair, her skirt, her mind or com- plexion. He resents her intrusion in polities and distrusts her conduct in the home. In short. Wilkins and the modern woman idea don't amalgamate worth a cent. Accordingly, when Wilkins picks up Smith's article and reads the title, his complex begins to coagulate. He reads the hrst para- graph, senses the breeziness of the style. notes that Smith uses none of the scathing phrases which he, Wil- kins, deems appropriate for the occasion and at once he sees red. “Ah-ha!” hisses Wilkins. “Another one of those radicals! Another bol- shevik! Another I. W. W.! No wonder our homes are going to the devil when they allow the public press to print fiith like this!” And forthwith he sits down and writes a letter to the editor that would eat the plating off. the crown jewels. As a matter of fact, Smith isn’t a radical, bolshevik or an I. W. W. His ideals and aims would do credit to & maiden lady missionary. The jtheories he advanced would work harm to the domestic regime of Squashburg, much less the United States of America. He merely write: in a style unfamiliar to Wilkin: mental gnashings. He Is tolerant and breezy because tolerance and breezi- ness are the journalistic order of the day. “And also- because, mingling cheek by jowl with the modern woman in his own workrgom, he sees no particular reason for gnashing when she'’s mentioned. That's all. Properly assimilated, Smith’s article ‘wouldn't have hurt Wilkins a particle and might have helped him a good deal. But Wilkins reads with his blinders on—blinders of prejudice, ignorance, stupidity and anger. He doesn’t read to be enlightened. He reads in order to find confirmation for hissown viewpoint or to get mad if he doesn't find confirmation. And he generally gets mad. How do you read? (Copyright, 1 ' Menu for a Day. BREAKFAST.

Among the principal professions which women are entering in these southern countries are law, medicine and the consular service.

Miss Lutz was full of enthusiasm concerning the success | of women in her native country,| especially in the professions of medi- cine and law and in obtaining gov- ernmental positions by competitive examination. She told how Brazil is really a splendid looking glass in which one can trace the social ad- vance of women through history, for in that great countsy of the Amazon one can find women in every stage of life from the most primitive cave woman type to the professional | woman who is the product of the highest grade of educational institu- tions that the world of today pos- sesses. “The exposition next year will be an especiaily wonderful thing for the women of my country,” said Miss Lutz, “for it will bring many women of other countries to our shores and glve the Brazilian women great en- couragement o strive for their emancipation and progréss in the professions and industries. 1 Her Earrings.
