WOMAN'’S PAGE. THE EVENING Use of the Mates Dame fashion never had the repu tation of being a creature of econom- ical habits. Despite the fact we are wont to think of this mythical crea- tura as at least three-quarters French, she has none of the thrift that is sald to run through the character of every ONE EARRING IS ODD HEAD' ARRANGEMENT. IT IS A CAMEO, ON A PEARL CHAIN t danghter nce. Extrava- nce seems to he one of her most Lk ler most character- of unreasonable one BY MARY MARSHALL. to Lost Earrings spending. TYet once in awhile you find to your surprise that some new trick or fancy of fashion has actually been inspired by thrift. Take the “odd head” that you may have heard about. You know what that is—the new way some of the younger women are wearing their hair when they appear for an hour or =0 of dancing. The odd head would perhaps not do at all for formal eve- ning wear and apparently it has ap- peared only at clubs and restaurants where no one dresses too formally. A dance-mad duchess in England started the fad—or perhaps she was only a countess. Anyway, the fashion was well sponsored over there. And this is how you do it. You part vour hair well over to one side and then you draw it in either direc- tion around your head, coiling it over the ear on the side opposite the part. That leaves one ear quite exposed and the other entirely covered. And then you hang one lovely earring from the ear that shows. Now here is where the economy comes in. Every one has ever so many lovely earrings in her jewel box, they say, that cannot be worn because the mates have been lost. In the old days when women's ears were pierced that sort of thing did not happen. It may have been rather barbaric—pierc- ing girls’ ears that way—but it made for security. There is only one drawback to this new fashion. We take it for granted that you have the odd earrings, but it may be that you have bobbed your hair, and this new odd head calls for long hair.

It surely is. The dog is a member of the famil; e has to get the same care as any helpless, grow- ing thing about the place. He has a body and feelings and he thinks. It we allow ourselves the luxury of having him we must in decency pay the price of his keep. The doghouse ought to be the care of the boy of the house. He can build it and keep it clean and groom the dog. It {s usually he who lays claim to the animal and it is right he should shoulder the responsibility of his welfare. With the house there must go his bedding and his dishes and his food. | The bhoy ought to prepare this food and keep the dishes clean, but if there is a girl about who enjoys the dog she ought to share some of his housekseping. This won't do either of them a bit of harm, but it will do them good to learn about the health of their friend and to feel his dependence upon them. It is too bad to chain a dog. If he cannot run free about the place, why have him? A dog is made to run and hunt and dig and toss things up considerably. To tie a creature like that is cruel. What good is a plavmate who is a prisoner? Who Not the chil- the dog’s house in order and many other little things will fall rhyth- mically into place. It is surprising what an influence good dog house- keeping has on a family. (Copsright. 1925.)

De- clining she turned to a close friend who was with her and said, “Charity begins at home.” In use for centuries in popular speech the origin of the phrase is traced back to a line in the Bible of which it is a misquotation. That is the well known admonition: “Let them first show piety at home. (Copyright, 1828.) | exist essar; ment the these the fo {the HOME NOTES BY JENNY WREN. If we were newlyweds and wanted to furnish our living room very pret- tily and very smartly, and very, very inexpensively, we would start like this: Instead of a davenport, we would buy a Windsor settee for the living room. We would paint it gayly and load it with cushions and know that we could use it in hall or sun room, or even on the porch when the time came that we could better afford the davenport. Instead of two big expensive arm chairs, we would buy two small uphol- stered chairs covered in striped denim. They would be comfortable and neat and would look very nice in the bed- rooms later. Then, you see, we would have three important pleces for the living room without having spent much money and without having wasted one cent. (Copyright. 1925.)
