WOMAN"S PAGE. Severely Simple Buttons for Suits BY MARY MARSHALL, If buttons were used only to fasten our clothes tcgether there would be very few of them sold. You would find almost all the buttons in the world on_the clothes of men and children.

The sm lored suits show the simple buttons that men’s suits. When buttons appear on evening frocks they may be more ornate. Round filigree metal buttons similar to the filigree beads that are made into choker necklaces are placed in neat decorative rows on evening frocks and are sometimes set with brillfants or colored stones. Long rows of tiny buttons are used by some of the ¥rench dressmakers 2 WHAT'S THE \PEA OF PUTTING THAT i SiGN_UP 2 - Sam § er” ST | could become full flcdged members of to give the effect of length on some simple little frocks. Mme. Bernard shows a frock of white marocaine embroidered with a row of tiny but- tons down the front. Madeleine et Madeleine-Anna choose to put rows of buttons down the backs of some of thelt frocks. Sometimes there are two rows—one longer than the other. The frock in the sketch is of French blue fallle with satin stripes. It is trimmed with three large but- tons at the front and rows of small oblong blue bone buttons at the sides and down each sleeve. (Copyright.) HOW IT STARTED BY JEAN NEWTON. Unions. Truly, “In unfon thers is strength.” And it is this same principle, old as tho ages, that started the first union, the mediaeval gild, as it was called, from “gild” meaning & payment or a contribution. it is a travesty that the original ‘“‘unfons” were not organizations of “labor,” but of employers. They were boards of trade formed by the pro- prietors of the industries of each town for protection against “foreign” competition. The rules of the gild against trading with “foreeigners” ex- cept under certain conditions pre- served for the trade men of each town a monopoly of local business. The authority of the gilds in the regulation of trade was greater even than that enjoyed by the town gov- ernments. ‘With the development of industry the general merchant gild was super- seded by the craft gilds—individual organizations for every trade or in- dustry in the town. As the merchant gild had regulated the trade of the town in general, the craft gild super- vised its own trade or occupation. So powerful we these craft gilds that it was impos: e for a man to carry on business without subjecting himself to the rules of his particular gild. The gilds controlled a man's stand- ing in his trade. y worker had to serve for seven years as an ap- prentice without pa; when he be- came a “journeyman.” This word was taken from the French word meaning day. For the men were employed and pald by the day. When a journey- man had saved enough money toopen his own little shop he became a “mas- tradesman. And only masters the craft gild! But we learn that the proprietors and their employes worked in harmonious accord, without parti- san_ interest, for the good of their craft. Variety in Mayonnaise. You know, from a bottle of mayon- naise you can make a good many different sorts of salad dressing. That is, by adding now this, now that, you can glve many different flavors to the same foundation, For instance, chopped sweet plckles give one flavor. Then try chopped onfon, celery and pimento. Or chop- ped green pepper and onlon. Or a tablespoon of chili sauce or chopped ¢ | pickle to a cup of mayonnaise. Or a little seasoned vinegar—vinegar iIn which cut-up onions have stood for several hours, or a few cloves, or some crushed mint, or some mustard seed. You can lighten mayonnaise very much, for a fruit salad, by adding whipped cream. You can increase its bulk by adding good white sauce or drawn butter, and then adding sea- sonings—thus, of course, cheapening the salad dressing a great deal.

Pussy willows belong in that class of things first admired in childhood and thereafter always loved. As full of sturdy cheer as the red-cheeked children who bring them in to school these days, are the gay “pussies” of the shrub willows. As if to protect themselves from fickle March blasts, they come dressed in a soft, warm wool, and on top of this the catkins wear at first a shiny brown overcoat. For the pussy willow, though no showy flower, s no mean wonder of minute floral structure. Each little floret of the many that compose the whole catkin is snuggled about with silky hairs, and this is what makes the “pussy” part of the flowers. The first warm days of March will cause the pussies to expand. bursting out of the one big shiny scale and rapidly elongating. Then suddenly the stamens with their golden antlers will hang out of the fur, tempting the bees to come and carry the pollen to the h are always on separate plants. When next you pick the willow, try this experiment. Put the stems in water, let the pussies loom and die and drop, and then watch the unfolding leaves and the sudden development of roots from the cut end of the twigs. Nothing is more miraculous in nature than the way in which the twigs can put out roots. Imagine a man, cut off at the waist, srowing new legs, and then ask your- self whether men or willows ac- complish more remarkale feats. pussy The gas well at Latrobe, Pa., still holds the record of being the deepest, it having been sunk Imagine!
