w Spotted Leopard BY MARY The remark was passed about that the future of leopard and other simi- lar spotted cat fur had been jeopar- d)zed by the appearance on the scene of fashion of inexpensive imitation “leopard” skins. There are thick plushes that look like leopard at a distance of a hundred feet—but no closer. There are actual skins, spot ted after the manner of leopards though one strongly suspects that the pelts were originally worn by backyard felines and that the spots were post-mortem acquisitions. But the fact remains that leopard and the leopard idea still remain in zood odor. Smart women wear leop- ard spots and they wear imitation leopard. Truth to tell, one of the greatest fabric makers in France has produced crinkled velvet of a tawny background with lcopard-like spots that no one regards as an imitation in the sensc that for a moment are deceived by it, but it is smart. nevertheless. Here and there one does see an example of the “leopard effect” that seems cheap and entirely undesirable. A negligee recently dis- played was of this sort. [t was of rose-colored silk, trimmed with rib- bon and had great panels, front and bon, and had great panels, front and real leopard to the blush But the fine quality crinkled velvet with leopard spots is still smart. There are charming small hats of it and cuffs and collar sets to be attach- ed to coat frocks. The sketeh shows a tricorne of leopard-printed velvet, which is worn with a leopard coat. And now we have lcopard-spotted satin. One hat made of this material is a draped turban with a large. drooping fancy of black ostrich the right sid around the crown with triangles of black satin, and has a rosctte of BEDTIME STORIES Hooty Strikes Quickly.

He had made a mistake in thinking that Hooty the Owj had gone away to another part of the Green Forest. He found it out when it was just too late to turn back to the safety of the little hole in the ground from which he had come. His heart had almost stopped beating with fright, as when it was A SECOND LATER HOOTY WAS AROUND THE TREE. just too late he saw Hooty the Owl come sailing -out from his watch tower. He knew that Hooty had seen him leave that little hole in the ground. There was nothing for him to do but to trust to his legs and the chance of finding a hiding place be- fore Hooty could catch him. Now one of the first things that lit- tle Whitefoot the Wood Mouse learned when he was young and first went out into the Great World was to hide. His soft, dark eyes were always watching for a possible hiding place. Being so small he could get into very small places. He soon learned how to dart under a few fallen leaves; how a knot hole in a tree or stump meant safety; how to dart behind a fern leaf or into a pile of brush.

BURGESS matter where he was going or what he was doing, even in times when he had no reason to suspect that danger was near, he never failed to look for every possible hiding place. Now Whitefoot can run rapidly for a short distance. Those little, slim legs and white feet of his can take him over the ground. They did now. | He kept in the Black Shadows, for he knew that there Hooty the Owl could not see him as well as If he were out in the moonlight. As he ran his heart seemed to be almost up in his | mouth from fright. But he wasn't too frightened to watch for a possible hiding place. He dodged behind a tree. On the other side of it was a little heap of brown leaves. Quicker than vou can wink your eves White- foot was under those leaves. There he stopped and held his breath. Hooty the Owl was almost within striking distance of Whitefoot when the latter dodged behind that tree. A second later Hooty was around that tree, his big eyes staring hungrily for Whitefoot. But Whitefoot was no longer in sight. Hooty checked his swift flight and turned quickly. Then he flew back and forth all about near that tree. He knew that White- foot was hiding somewhere close by. He was looking for that hiding place. He guessed that Whitefoot was under those brown leaves. but just where he had no means of knowing. He flew to the top of an old stump close at hand. Then he hooted with all his might. It was a startling sound. Hooty meant it to be. He made it as startling as he knew how. He knew that it would be almost sure to make Whitefoot start in fright, and that in doing this he would rustle a leaf un- der which he was hiding. Now Whitefoot expected Hooty to do just this thing. He was prepared for it. Nevertheless that sudden, ter. rible sound caused him to start to jump in spite of himself, and he did rustle the leaves under which he was hiding. But there was a louder rus- tle of dry leaves at the same time just back of an old log. Hooty's won- derful ears heard this. His great, silent wings took him over there in an instant. His great eyes saw some- thing move. Like a flash he struck at it with his great feet armed with cruel, curved claws. He had no doubt that it was Whitefoot the Wood Mouse.

Today's planetary aspects are ad- verse and indicate an unfavorable outcome for any new business enter- prise or venture, especially if of a speculative character. The aspects also counsel quiet and self-restraint, The signs very clearly portend a strong inclination to quarrel and to argue, and reveal a risk of accident or iliness. “To be forewarned Is to be forearmed,” and while only giving your attention to routine duties, you must maintain a calm attitude and not be drawn into remarks of an im- pulsive character which are liable (o get vou into hot water.

A child born today will pass suc- cessfully. through the vicissitudes of infancy, but is liable to experience one serious sickness in childhood, which will demand much care, evoke much anxiety and require much patience. Its character will be rather pugnacious, its disposition more can- tankerous than attractive, its men- tality very keen. This child, unless strong steps are taken to render its fyaracter conciliatory, will develop iMo a disagreeable personality with thd proverbial chip on its shoulder. Its disposition must be tempered by mnselfishness, while it must be given every encouragement in its studies, given its keenness and alertness of mind. 1t today is your birthday, vou do Bot, probably, possess either wealth position.

For those who wish to give up the old cloche, and yet not take up the new, high, square crowned hats, here is the next best thing. And it is a very popular thing and seen on the heads of the most fashionable women. It is a hat wide of brim at the sides, narrow in front, and next to nothing at the back. It is usually, and most properly, trimmed in a broad flat bow of velvet that lies across the front of the hat But the sketch shows another attractive trim. This is of narrow ribbon folded back on itself, against the orown, and laid on in a brick effect. Italian Risotto. Wash two cupfuls of rice, drain, then dry.

When the rice is tender, mix in four table- spoonfuls of grated cheese and two tablespoonfuls of finely-chopped parsiey. It Is then ready to serve.

Many people buy lined gloves for Win- ter wear, and so there are many types on the market. varying from the rather expensive antelone or lambskin gloves, dressed with the hair or wool still on and turned inside to form the natural lining of the glove when finished, to the ordinary wool-lffied glove. How do you like your gloves lined? Undoubtedly, if you want them lined at all, you want them lined for warmth, for that, obviously, is the primary object of a glove lining. However, there are other factors beside warmth which you should coneider in getting a line on your glove linings. The first of these is comfort. No mat- ter how cozily warm is the interior of your glove, it is not comfortable if the lining is badly shaped, not properly fit- ted to the glove itself, or full of seams which make themselves too apparent to the wearer. Now, comfortable linings may be those which have been cut out by glove patterns and sewn up with the gloves—thus insuring absolute fit of lin- ing to glove. But such linings cannot, of course, be seamless. Therefore, you may prefer the “slip-in,” or seamless, one-piece kmitted linings. These are fashioned on a circular glove-knitting apparatus. They are perfectly smooth, and likely to be extremely comfortable. Then you will, of course, want to con- sider suitability of the lining to the pur- to work and make the money for my trousseau. the idea of me working for myself and urges me to marry him at onc He says he does not mind my not having any trousseau, but I do.

(Copyright, 1024.) WHEN WE GO SHOPPING BY MRS. HARLAND H. ALLEN. pose for which you intend the glove Heavy fur linings, for instance, provide & maximum of warmth, but you may find them too cumbersome for eome pur- poses, even where a good, warm glove is essential, such as, for instance, driv- ing. The ideal glove lining, especially where freedom of movement is requisite, is soft, pliable and porous, as well as warm. Now, you can buy both leather and fabric gloves with linings. These linings may be of silk, cotton, wool, fur or leather. Occasionally. too, you will see linen linings. The silk linings are usual- Iy of tricot or Milanese, and the cottons are of lisle or mercerized material. Wool linings may be either of two general types—of knitted material, well napped, the “fleece” lining or of loosely-feited and very soft wool. Lamb's-wool is a particularly good choice as a lining for the cold-weather glove. It is the pelt of the lamb, extremely soft, warm and pliable and prepared like fur. As to fur linings, they usually come in the lower-priced furs such as rab- bit, hare or coney. Leather linings are, naturally, never of the stiffer leathers, but of such soft and pliable ones as chamois and lamb. While it is not advisable to “buy your gloves for their linings,” neither is it good shopping economy to buy them al- together for their eurface materials, without also considering how the linings “line up.” PERSONAL HEALTH SERVICE BY WILLIAM BRADY, M. D. Real Beauty Culture. Dear Dootor: 1 never eat my dinner until I have looked through the paper to see what you have to say. You are always interesting. \One day not so long ago you told us about a woman who did 80 much walking and found it so beneficial. Well, I think I have her beaten, though I admire her spunk for keeping it up as she did, with her house full of youngsters. T will tell you what has happened to me. I am in business for myself as a beauty culturist. I have a good business, of ocourse, a lot of hokum in it. I guess you understand all that. We can make many women believe that hot oil treatments make them 10 years younger. Last fall I bought a sedan and drove it con- stantly. It made me very lazy and fat, really fat. In April I decided to put it In storage In the garage and take it out only for holidays. Since April 1 have walked from my home to my shop twice a day (which makes about 10 miles). I had gained up to 140 pounds while driving the car. Now I weigh 120. I am just 5 feet tall and 28 years old. I usually take toast, tea and fruit for breakfast, no midday lunch, but a cracking fine dinner. So I agree with you that walking is a fine daily exeril:;. {0k erely ‘because I have reduced, but because I now feel so charged with Health and ambition. Just a friend, MISS —— —\y There you are, girls! Beauty is as beauty does. Beauty is acquired rather by do- ing than by being done. In the business this young woman follows it is particularly important that the chief keep herself looking her best. She knows how to do that, you see. She takes her oxygen on the hoof on her way to and from the shop, evidently not afraid she won't look 000l and fresh when she arrives. Her time, too, is probably as valuable as the time of the aver- .woman.is busingss. : She spends the three hours walking for health—and the old chariot pawing the stable to get out and carry her. It is a good lesson in beauty culture, but I know very few will heed it. As the young woman says, they like to have youth rubbed in. Suppose you have too much dignity to hoof it to and from work. Or suppose your ballroom slippers are not built for street wear. Or sup- .pose you're kinda frall and can't stand the sunlight—it's likely to make the color run—then I commend as the next best thing a 15 or 20 minute session with the Brady sym- phony in your attic, cellar or bed- room onoe or twice daily. The sym- phony is just a set of general exer- cises, some of which tone up the cor-. set muscles. There is no corset or other harness that can compare with well trained muscles for keeping a woman's figure trim. ..

The boys in the school got just enough porridge every day to keep them alive, and they almost wore out their bowls and spoons, licking and scraping them to get every last bit of food.

The only trouble is, I am afraid, we don’t know how | lucky we ‘are, and so we don't; always appreciate the good things | we have.
