FEATURES BY MARY INGS were worn before gloves and parasols were carried be- fore umbrellas. Men and Wwomen generally adopted the more fanciful and more ornate arti- cles of apparel before they adopted .those built for service only The very name umbrella might be enough to show that such de- Vices were carried to protact us from the sun before they were thought of as shields against the rain. For the umbrella quite obviously comes from the Ttalian umbrella, which in turn is derived from the Latin word mean- sunshade to ing shadow. It was a begin with. Interestingly enough, men, except a few rather old men or victims of previous sunstroke. avoid carrying arasols. Not two centuries ago the an in England who ventured forth varrying an umbrella for r wa, v jcered at and derided for his ef feminate French f; ion. It was nost womanish to carry an um- trella. If you were not hardy enough to brave the rain then you hould take coach. That was the taunt. Now, of course, every man jack among us carries an umbrella when it rains But he does not’ carry a parasol. That would be too cffeminate. Just why he raises the distinction might be difficult for the visitor from Mars to understand. In ancient times men as well as nwomen carried umbreilas and doubt- less Tut-ankh-Amen himself seldom | appeared in public without his roval umbrella borne aloft—to shield him from the sun One thing that doubtiess has co tributed to the revi interest i umbrellas this year the number of charming and original parasols that have becn offered by the Yarious parasol makers. But even with all these sunshades to tempt us we do not seem to be willing to fearry them as cagerly as did our randmothers. Therc is something distinctly Victorian still about a parasol. One of the most interesting of the SHOPPING BY MRS. HARLAND H. ALLEN Wistful Window Shopping. Do vou indulge in the national pas- time of “Window shopping”?

Then. furniture displays may be re- ‘sponsible for vour part in the “bet- ter furnishings”’ movement which has made the modern home the place of comfort it is. Such displays. showing rooms not only beautifully decorated, hut correctly done in accordance with current styles, serve to enlighten the window shopper as to the up-to-date as well as the esthetic in furniture standards ach ahead-of-the-minute gown you possess. also, may well have been inspired by shop window creu- tions, for the new things usually make their appearance, first of all. in he show windows Probably you have observed, too. that You can bet- Uter tell how “ready-made” garments inok when vou see them on the wax figures in the windows than you can when they are shown on hangers in t the store Window displays that show the Pprocess of manufacture of various Beautifying Outdoor Fads. Once when I was a child I spent a summer with a kind-hearted aunt in | ) the country. She gave me and her two daughters tiny plots of ground to cultivate as our own. The practical minded cousin went in for good solid vegetables, I remember, and the ar- tistic ones for a wild riot of flowers. I'm afraid I never cultivated much but weeds and morning glories. 4 "1 love the results of gardening, but 1 disliked the effort. the odd insects © and worms I was apt to meet, and the feel of caked mud drying on my hands. », though I dutifully remind my readers several times a summer that gardening makes for beauty of as well as beauty complexion and bod 1.do it, I am landscape and mind of afraid, in a half-hearted manner.

Girls are asking that question now as they have never asked it before.

To be good is to be lonesome. Does it pay?"

Why, there is more real fun at a church oyster supper than there is in a drunken orgy, where in- toxicated girls dance on tables. where men and women have to drug them- selves Into forgetfulness before they can even imitate merriment, and where every bit of pep has to be artificially injected into the occasion® The only fun that has any real.fun in it is the clean fun that leaves no bad taste in the mouth, that brings no sodden headache or heartache the morning after: the kind of fun that one can lay up as a happy memory, in- stead of burning with shame to recall.
