WOMAN’S PAGE. Violet and Other Flowers on Hem : BY MARY MARSHALL. This season one finds very few Plain or even hemlines in evening gowne. If the material of the gown 18 hung straight then there is usu- ally some sort of trimming about the hem that keeéps the line from being straight and | unbroken. Rows of maratou appear to be a favorite method of trimming the hemline. This is particularly effective on white frocks cut with rather full circu- TAL VI M.

The single row or rows of ou then curve outward, follow- the lines of the skirt. There i< nothing very new about frin of ostricih flues about the skirt, but one stijl sees skirts so or- namented. This may be done on a full eircular skirt that is short enough that the ostrich flues when attached only come to the in- steps, or there may be an irregular, draped skirt with just occasional, long willow flues attached around BEDTIME STORIES Danny and Nanny Become Too Famous.

At first Danny and Nanpy had felt very much set up, as ihe saying is. They had become famous. For the first time in their they had become important. They were treated with the greatest respect. 1t was very flattering, and they enjoved it But soon they began to grow tired of it. Also so much attention began 1o worry them. They couldn't o much 55 poko their heads outside without finding some one waiting for them. “Fhis would have been bad enough had t been only friends. But certain Lungry enemies were always hanging about. ‘' Reddy or Mrs. Fox was apt to appear at any time. Redtail the the hem, giving an uneven, noncha- lant effect. But flowers are far newer and at present smarter than feathers as a hem trimming. In place of the bands of soft fur that characterized 50_many beautiful evening- gowns one may now see clustered flowers. The sketch shows a blue moire silk with violets so arranged on the hem. A scarf hangs from a cluster of violets at the left side and is ;lrrled draped over the right shoul- er. Quite persistent are the reports of a revived interest in the modes of 1880 and thereabouts—the mode made familiar to us still by the drawings of Du Maurier. In that period an untrimmed hem or skirt edge was quite unheard of. (Copyright, 1924.) Menu for a Day. BREAKFAST. Bananas and Cream. Oatmeal With Cream. Scrambled Eggs. Hashed Browned Potatoes.

BURGESS Hawk had formed the habit of spend- ing much of his time watching that pile of old cornstalks. It wasn't just in the hope of catching Danny or Nanny. There was always the chance of catching one of the visitors there. “I can't stand this any longer,” de- clared Nanny at last. “It is a wonder |that oue of our children hasn't been caught. They haven't vet learned the ways of the Great World, and it wor- ries me to death to have so many Dpeople about. “I agree wi you, my dear,” re- plied Danny. “Itis a fine thing to be looked up to by all _your neighbors, and to be admired. It is a fine thing. But there is such a thing as being too famous. 1 am beginning to wish that we had kept our tongues still and not told where we spent the win- ter. The thing for us to do is to steal away from here and find a new home as soon as we can, and then not let body know where it.i hat's the most sensible thing I've ou-say for a long time,” de- clared “] want quiet and peace, and we'll never get it here.” So it came about that the very next day the visitors to the pile of corn- stalks called and called in vain. No one came out. 1t was the same on the next day and the day after. Danny and Nanny had moved, and where they had moved to no one knew. Of course, they had taken their family with them. Tt was a long time before their new home was discovered, and by that time all their neighbors were S0 busy With their own family affairs that they no longer gave a thought to Danny and Nanny and their wonder- ful story.

The arrival of St. Patrick's Day, with Its “wearin’ o' the green," sug- Eests a few thoughts about the value of this beautiful color in the decora- tion of the home. 1 sometimes think there is no color in which the difference in shades Is so important. The right green is not only a delight in itself but is excel- lent background against which to set off brighter colors; the wrong green is as distressing as an unpleas- ant odor or a sour taste. There are certain yellowish-greens, with a sickly cast, that should, to my mind, be carefully avolded. A double daffodil that blooms very early in my garden is a bilious-look- ing affair with its gréenish tinge in 4 i the vellow petals; and the only reason |1 let it keep on blogming is that it' comes at least two weeks earller than any other spring bulb except the crocuses. Almost any flower Is lovable when it is the only one there st While nature can afford to do al- most anvthing outdoors, with her background of deep blue sky, we have to be careful in our homes not to get a color that is vaguely de- pressing. The blue-greens are in general more sympathetic than the!l vellow-greens and combine better with other colors. Reseda, or sage green, with its soft grayish hue, is| perhaps the happiest green to use indoors, unless one goes in for very bright colors. In that case, the newer jade green is most joyous, and this has a large proportion of blue, in it. Olive green, with its yellowish cast, is not a good choice as & gen- eral thing. Of course, a clear apple green is always likable when combined with the right contrasting shades, and if a Yery light shade of green is wanted, nile green is sometimes good, though I feel it to be rather innocuous. Ewm- erald green is almost too insistent, except in small quantities. Very dark green may be restful in the woods, but it is merely sullen in the home. —Thank goodness, the vogue of gloomy green wall papers, couch denims, ~ over-draperies and cushions has given way to the clear: jer. bluer, brighter greens that still lnmke a 'good foil for the warmer |shades of the flower colors. | Me and Leroy Shooster was stand- ing by the lam post feeling atbaletic on account of both having on swet- ters but no overcoats, and Puds Sim- kinses sissy cuzzin Persey Weever eame up in a long overcoat with fur erround the collar, me saying, Well | look wats heer, ware 'did you get the overcout, Perséy, ware was the fire sale? You must be cold, aint you, Persey, why dident you put'on ear muffs wile you was about it? Leroy Shooster sed. 1 dont know wat you'd do if it was reely cold, Persey, 1 sed. I gess you'd carry erround a stove and set on it every few steps or so, I sed. Overcoats may be all rite for old men, thats the way I feel about over- coats, Leroy sed. And him and me stood there in our swetters kidding Persey about his overcoat and feeling prouder and prouder of ourselfs, and Persey sed, Thats all rite, If you knew wat I know maybe you wouldent tawk so mutch. Why, wat do you know, wats a matter? me and Leroy sed, and Persey sed, Well, if you wunt to know why Im ‘wearing this overcoat if you think you know so mutch, well jest leeve me tell you Im wearing this overcoat because its the only place Ive got room in my pockits for all my candy and apples and nuts and things, if you recly wunt to know. O well, T gess you got a rite to wear a overcoat if you wunt to, this is a free country and everybody dont haff to dress the same, Leroy sed, and T sed, Sure, a overcoat aint eny warmer than a swetter enyways, its longer, thats all, enybody that wunts to wear a overcoat can wear one as far as Im concerned. | “Well, T jest thawt 1d tell you, thats fall, Persey sed. And he started to iwawk away, me yelling after him, | Seeing Is beieeving.

EVERYBODY—A White Wash Out. jany hireling at the dull and monotonous task of cooking and cleaning and ) Saye “It's More Blessed to Give Than to Reoeive.” To Lovs Or To Be Loved? |DorothyDix] Love for Her Husband Is the Only Thing That Makes -the Sacrifices of Marriage Worth While to the Average Woman. A CORRESPONDENT asks this question: “Is it better for a woman to marry the man she loves or the man who loves her?” i Of course, the proper answer to this quory is neither, or both. Do not | marry until you find a man wio loves you and whom you.love. But in a case where a cholce has to be made between the two, I should unhesitatingly | say that it is better for the woman to marry the man she loves than it is for her to marry the man who loves her. 3 ! At first blush, not many women will agree to this proposition. They | will say that u woman's greatest need is the need of love; that without love She hungers. and thirsts, and perishes, no matter what else life ives her. H Furthermore, they will say that it {s & woman's prerogative to be adored and have incense burnt before her, and that ever since the cave man wooed his lady love with @ club and dragged her to his home by her lovely red hair men have been the lovers and have donme the courting. Therefore they hold that if, In marriage. “one kisses and the other submits to being kissed,” as the French say, the man should be the Kisser! and the woman the kissed. | They believe that where a woman has to content herself” with a half | loat she best secures her happiness by taking a husband who is perfectly | crésy &bout her: who is in a perpetual state of blessing Lady Luck for " sving glven him his heart's desire in a wife, and who {s content to eat | out of her hand such scraps of affection as she condescends to feed him. | I disagree with this theory. It is just because love s the most | important thing in a woman's life that it is absolutely necessary for her ! to have an overwhelming passion for the man she marries if she is to find | happiness and contentment. A | . MAN who has a vital interest In his career, the excitement for the! struggle for power and money, the thousand distractions of the great | world to take his mind off his domestic affairs, can get along with a wife whom he respects and who makes him comfortable, but for whom he! entertains only a lukewarm reg But & woman cannot meet emotions make her life. d. situation like that philosophically. Her she feels is of greater interest to her than what she does. She cunnot substitute liking for loving any more than she can water for wine. And no matter how much she admires the man to whom she i8 married, no matter how grateful she is to him for his kindness to her, unless he can ralse a thrill in her breast everything is cinders, ashes and dust to her. 4 ( She feels that she has missed the best thing in life, the thing she most wanted: and she is restless and dissatisfied, and is forever on a still hunt to find her real soul mate. To the average woman, marriage is a state of perpetual sacrifice. She | must go through the agony of bearing children and the long, weary vears| of ceaseless care and anxiety in rearing them. She must work harder than ;crubbln: and sewing and mending that ome. And the only thing on earth that can make all this worth while is love for her husband. That sets a r in her sky. That gilds the bumblest task. The woman who stands over a stove cooking a dinner for the husband to whom she is utterly indifferent is a slave driven to her appointed task by®her sense of duty. The woman who stands over a stove cooking dinner for a husband she adores is a priestess making a burnt offering of herself on the altar of her god. "THE woman who marries the man she loves is never bored, and boredom is the particular curse of the feminine sex. She throws herself, heart and soul, into her husband's interest, and is more ecager for his success than he 'is himeelf. She is never dull, because the smallest thipg that concerns him is of greater Import to her than the events that shake the great outer world. She can find food for thought and scope for her ctivities in the fact that her husband likes onfons with his beefsteak or prefers mushrooms. Her days are filled with pleasurable excitement in preparing for his homecoming of an evening, and when she hears his key in the latch her heart strikes up “Hail to the King.” it takes to make a comfortable s e s e The woman who marries the man she loves is never dissatisfied, never disgruntled. He may be a poor thing. but he is her own. the one She out out of the bunch and which she marked with her own brand. Having got the one thing she wanted most. she can well afford to pity her poor sisters who have only limousines and pearls and the merely tolerated husbands who are the purveyors thereof. Of course, the woman who loves her husband better than he does her has her moments of acute jealousy. but even these are thrilled with pep and are better than the dull stagnation of having a man that you don't take the trouble to lock up at night because you know vou can't lose him. Truly, it is more blessed to give than to receive, and it is better for a woman to love than to be loved. DOROTHY DIX. (Copyright, 1924.) Early Days and Ways in Washington. rose and advanced to him. He got u and shook me by the hand; the other gentlemen followed my example and | soon came trooping up also, and this | second ceremony being over, all again | was silence, and each one once more ! moved to his chair. All bore the ap-'| Dearance of great solemnity. Not a Whisper broke on the ear to inter- TUpt the sflence of the place, and! every one looked as if the next mo- | ment was to be' his last. Aftera| little while the President in a very grave manner began conversation Wwith some one who sat next to him, and directly Mr. Joseph Jones Monroe (I love to write the name in full) opened the door and| ushered in some more victims, who | submitted to the same dread ordeal | as we had just experienced. “Miss_Gouvérneur is a pretty girl, a New Yorker, and I wished much to | be introduced to her that I might| talk a little of our state. However, | I did not get the chance, and, accord ingly, T sat in my chair for a full half an hour, when dinner was announced. 1 was scated next to Mr. Joseph Jone: Monroe and was almost surfeited by | his conversation. To repeat the many | silly things he sald to me would take up too much time. I, however, pre- vailed upon him to introduce me to| Miss Gouverneur after dinner, which he did, and after conversing a quar- ter of an hour with her we made our bow t6 the ladies and the Pre dent and retired at half past eight.| We had a good dinner and the table was more richly furnished than any that T have ‘et seen. There were about thirty sat down to dinner, and all became more chatty and lively as soon as the dishes began to rattle. “The plateau was the most elegant thing that I ever saw.

On entering the large sa. loon or outer room and while the servants were helping us off with our cloaks, Mr. Joseph Jones Monroe, the President’s brother and private sec- retary, made his ‘entre’ from the drawing room door, and instead of coming up to us to make us welcome, moved off diagonally towards a fire- place at least fifty feet from our side of the room. Giving up my wraps to a servant, I advanced towards him and introduced myself and the other gentlemen to his notice.
