WOMAN’S PAGE Making the Most of Your Looks BY DOROTHY STOTE. Dear Ann: Simplicity should be the kevnote of the smdrt woman's costume. You take a taflored suit, add to it u flower bedecked hat, a fancy lace collar and & styng of bead: there 1s nuuch eonfusion. But maten it up with a trim little sports hat, a plain white- collared blouse, and in place of the beads a plain black cord or narrow ribbon, and you have both simplicity and smartness. Yours for keeping in tune with fash- fon, LETITIA. (Copyright. 1928.) WHEN WE GO SHOPPING BY MRS. HARL. Choosing Pictures. Often & woman, who is an experi- enced shopper in other things, is stumped when she faces the problem of buying pictures for her home. P’ic- tures gan't be measured or weighed for quantity and quality. Further- more, a picture isn't a thing wears out. It is one of the few perma- nent things in a home, and that makex it all the more essential to buy pie- tures with lasting worth.

It would seem as though the short- est course between two points on the map, say Panama and Ceylon, would be to sail on the parallel of latitude 9 degrees, which joins the two coun tries. This, however, is not true. If Vou wanted to sl the distance in an airplane you would not sail on the latitude 9 degrees, but would traverse an are which would pass northeast from Panama, over England, arriving in Ceylon from the northwest. 1t you don’t belleve it, take a string and compare the two distances on a fln)m A mercator's projection or ordina page map will not show this, as it is a distortion of distances and would make. the sailing course appear about like the are of s comet revolving around some point in the middle of the Sahara Desert.

'Her es- cort, Merton Thorne, introduces her to Conrad Morgan, the oaptain of the team, and. they fall madly in love at first sight. Conrad wins the game I»r Hamilton, and in the excitement Iouawcna induces Jean to marry him The next day he takes won him, but Mr. and Mrs. Alnsley were not’won over so easily. In the library after dinner, Mr. Alnsley questioned Jean about’ Con- rad's prospects. “Has he any idea of what he intends to do? Where are you going to live? Of all the mad escapades you've ever put over yet, Jean, this Is the worst. % “You want me to be happy, dad, don't you? Isn't that what counts' tell you I'm sure of Conrad and ot will be, too, when you meet him. You can hive @ talk with him when he comes to the city.” about her youthful assurance that won his reluctant admiration. He had been a poor man when he started out and had won his way to the top. He was rather proud of his.daughter to- night, even though he was worried about her. “Let's not talk more about it to- night, dad, Jean said coaxingly. ““There’ll be plenty of time when Con- rad comes, and for these few days I want to be just as I was before. Then I'll be leaving, you know, and it won't be the same afterward.” And so they had gone back to the living room and Jean had done every- thing in her power to make it seem as it nothing were changed. But it' was hard to do that. There were little things that kept cropping up, things she wanted to tell about Conrad. Con- rad was the shadowy fifth that hung over the little family group. No mat- ter how hard they tried, they could not shut him out. Later in her own room she looked around at the famliliar surroundings with o little ache in her heart. Al- ways before she had taken the luxury of her room for granted and now she was realizing for the first time that she would miss all this, She might have her bedroom things sent up to Hamilton, but she hated stripping the room. She wanted it the way it was when she returned for visits, and besides it would emphasize her going to the family if she took her things with her. A knock on the door and Mrs. Afns- ley entered. She wore a soft pink, quilted-satin dressing gown and she looked very young and pretty. Jean couldn’t help contrasting her with Conrad’s mother. Mrs. Morgan had thin lips and iron gray halr twisted in a heavy knot at the back of her head. There was an austere air about her that made Jean feel she disap- proved of beautiful things and dis- trusted thew. For the first time Jean appreciated to the full what it would mean to leave her home and the par- ents who loved her. In an excess of tenderness she went up to her mother and, putting her arms around her, hugged her close. Mrs. Ainsley smell ed faintly of violets. Jean had con- nected that fragrance with her mother from her earliest childhood and to night it brought a sob to her thr and made her eyelids smart with sud- den tears.

I thought vou might be able to start him in something, but he won't do that, 8o we're going to live in Hamilton for the present. Mr. Afnsley stared at Jean in gen- uine amazement.

Jean had always had every thing she wanted. Her clothes had al- ways been of the best, her home luxu- and she had had servants to wait on her. He had known that some day she would marry, but he had expected her to mate with some one in her own walk of life.. Her elopement had shocked and startled vet rious, him, and there was something (Continued in Tomorrow's Star.) EVENING STAR, - WASHINGTON, 'D.

They then change fon the better and a steady im- provement is maintained during the remainder of the day. It is quite ev] dent that nothing demanding initia; tive or energetic enterprise should be attempted during the early part of the day, and attention at this time must be given only to routine duties. In the afternoon, however, those plans that you are bemt on realizing can, with perfect safety, be essayed and success is assured. The evening con- ditions will favor all family or social gatherings, as there will be sensed a feeling of mirthfulness and gayety. Children born tomorrow will, ac- cording to the sizns, enjoy normal health during infancy, although this assurance should not serve as an ex- cuse for falling to exercise due pre- cautions about nutrition, as alimenta- tion in thelr early years will minimize the seriousness of the ailment that will affect .them at udolescence. Their characters will be weak and passive, rather than aggressive. They will never show any strong tendency to fiight for what they want. If any- thing be difficult of achlevement, they will prefer to sacrifice their ambition or thefr desire, rather than labor for attainment If tomorrow is your birthday, your character is rather austere and un- bending. You rarely show evidence of congenlality, and much less of jovial- ity. You possess very little sense of humor and _have not much toleration for the weaknesses of others. You are very decided in your opinfons and positive in your convictions, and are never prepared to admit that you might be wrong. You are strong on giving advice, even when it is mnot sought, as some kind spirit has con- vinced you that you are better ac- quainted with people’s needs than they are themselves. You have the respect of your friends, even if you lack their affec- tion, as your rectitude and integrity are unquestioned.

To be told to mind your own busi- ness 1s usually an affront and, usual- 1y, too, onereceives such an affront when he is doing precisely that thing —minding the particular bit of busi- ness in hand. Mrs. Tillle allowed little Tillie to spend long hours away from home without inquiring as to how or where the time was spent. Her absence gave Mrs. Tillle peace and a chance to visit with a nelghbor or read the latest news about the 400. Mrs. Til- lie 1s well ub on the dolngs of the 400. Living a carefree life of adventure, little Tillie acquired some ‘ree and ensy manners and language that fit- ted them. Alorg about lunch time she dppeared fn Mrs. Joan's dining room wearing a dirty face and a_hungr look. Mrs. Joan washed the face and provided the means for the removal of the look. Then little Tillle played with little Joan. This happened fre. quently enough to bo considered a habit. Mrs. Joan pondered the situation well in her mind. Joan had to have playmates. 1t would not always be possible to shield her from manners and language that were not quite the best. This little Tillle was being neg- lected. Perhaps if she called on hel mother and told her sbout it and of fered to help in polishing the man ners and eliminating the language it might be better for both children. So she put on her best hat and rang Mrs. Tillie's door bell. It took quite a long time for Mre. Tillie to answer the bell. When she can take care of my own child. 1 suppose yours is perfect. You put airs enough, I'm sure. Wait a whil: and we'll sée. Yours fsn't dead vet. Mre. Joan went home excited and disturbed.

Blg Morgan couldn’t be other than a man because of his foot ball reputa- tion. Jean was a lucky girl to have grandmother knew what went into her bread because she made it herself, and because all the ingredients that were not grown on the home place were selected under her own careful eye. t But suppose you were asked to say what kind of flour was used in the bread you buy, what grade of short- ening, what kind of salt, sugar, yeast —what would you say? Could you tell whether fresh milk had enriched the recipe? Whether the water used was the purest to be had? And what would you answer if you were asked if ulmcwhowyourbreadwumued raised, baked? You would answer, of course, that you know your bread is good—just as you know that your piano, your washing machine, your vacuum cleaner is good— because it bears a reliable brand name.§ Every loaf bears a guarantee of quality On the wrapper of every loat of Rice's bread you will find the seal of the City Baking Institute.
