Th Paris it is often possible to get foresight of the frocks that will be worn in Spring and Summer in not- ing the clothes worn by women who have recently returned from the Riviera who have come North, only to fly South again after a few @ays. In our own northern cities it s worth while to notice the clothes T i MAUVE LACE AND CHIFFON ARE SIMPLY, SMARTLY, YET USED SPRING EVE- IN THIS NEW NING GOW. worn by the women who have re- turned from Palm Beach and other Southern resorts—not only the clothes but the manner of wearing them, for new tricks in fashion are MARSHALL. frequently originated in these South- ern resorts where women*are inspired with the spirit of Spring months in advance. This year there is a decided con- trast between the evening clothes worn by the women who have al- ready caught the spirit of the new season and those who are still cling- ing to the fashions of the Winter. ‘Women dressed in the new evening clothes look like butterflies, in frocks that are bright in color but at the same time soft and lovely. These simple, airy frocks are in marked contrast to the rather gorgeous, heavily beaded, elaborately orne mented frocks that were in favor du ing the Winter, There is something very light and butterfly-like even in the frocks that are embroidered in beads made of metal tissue. The fashion for lames and other metallic tissue has not passed, but | the new materials of this sort are | surprisingly light. Taffetas in clear, light colors suggestive of flower petals are frequently used, too, for the new evening frocks, but the new taffetas conform to the peesent de- mand that all evening fabrics must be as light as butterflies’ wings. Mauve lightly trimmed with silver, vellow often with a greenish cast, every shade of pink, blues that sug- gest the color of forget-me-nots, delphinjums or hydrangeas—these are colors that may appeal to you for the Spring evening dress. But perhaps there is nothing more dis- tinctive among them ail than white. (Copyright. 1927.) Sl e Fried Apples and Bacon. Select some good, tart apples and peel them, then cut them in about one-inch cubes. Fry the bacon in a heavy skillet. As soon as the slices of bacon are crisp, remove and drain them on clean brown paper. For frying the apples you will need about one-fourth cupful of the bacon fat. Put the apples in the hot bacon fat, and pile them up rather high in the frying pan. Sugar to taste. Be sure you use enough sugar, as apples fried in this way require a little more sugar than ordinarily fried apples. Cover the apples. Cook slowly until tender, then remove the cover and turn the apples gently, so that the pieces will keep their shape. Let them brown lightly. They: will then be trans- parent. Place them on & hot platter and swround them with crisp bacon. The sugar and bacon a sort of sirup with a delicious flavor. If you don’t especially want the bacon, you can use some left:over bacon fat. The apples will be just as good. IF YOUTH BUT KNEW. BY REV. WILLIAM A. (“BILLY") SUNDAY. Evangelist. ‘Youth is rash.s It takes long chances, #corns advice and, precedent, and often defeats its own ends by contempt for details. It trusts to luck instead of to caution and judgment. Turning dead lions into beehives is #till a good business. The men who have knocked the persimmon of success from the top of the tree have had fire in the veins in- stead of pink tea or hootch. It is false ideals that strew. the shores of lifa with wrecks. There is something worse than being betrayed; it is being the betrayer. There is somthing worse than losing your money: it is losing your honor. More young le fail from lack of morals than %&# of knowledge. Our best friel are the ones. wio help us find ourselves. If there were better preparation for marriage there would be fewer wreck- ed_homes. s You never remfain stationary. You _ are advancing or retrograding—going up or down in the moral thermometer. 1t is hard to help one who blames bad luck for his failures, who never sees his own faults, who' thinks he mever had a chance,’ who pities him- self, who knows it all to begin with. Learn good lessons from bad mis- takes. Nobody gets out of the way of a slipshod man when he comes round the corner.

My new suit was delivered today and when I came home tonight Joan had it draped over a chalr in the living room and she was out in the kitchen scraping some toast that we haq_ scrambled eggs on for dinner. I said, “Hello, there,” and 1 put away my hat and ‘coat and I looked at my new suit, and I had not noticed it was so loud when I bought it on account of the lights in the store, I guess, and I thought, if Joan did not like my shoea and hat>here is where she tells me some more about the kind of clothes I buy, all right, and 1 thought, I-do not like it so well myself, now that I see it again. Well, 1 went out to_ the Kkitchen and I kissed Joan and I sald, “How are you, honey?” and she sald, “All right,” and I thought, she will ko jumping on me in a minute if T am not careful, and 1 said, “Did you get any mail today, 2" and she sald, “Not a_thing,” and F thought, I w der if 1 could tell her the store sent out the wrong suit.

Well, I went into the bedroom to play with the baby and he was glad to see me and he grinned and shook Ais rattle at me, and I said, “I am sorry I am not feeling more playful, old-timer, but as soon as your mother remembers that sult she is going to do a lot of talking,” and I thought if she called me down so hard on account of my new shoes and hat, what_won't she say about the suit? And I thought, well, I suppose I can take it back the same as I did the derby today, and I thought perhaps I had better suggest that myself be- fore she suggests it and maybe starts a fight about it, 4nd I went back to the kitchen. I said, “Well, I see the sult came today,” and Joan said, “Oh, yes, I forgot,” and I said, “I am going to take——,” and Joan said, “I just love the color,” and I thought here it comes, because now she is getting sar- castic, and I said, “I am going to take——" and Joan said, “Put it on, I want to see how you look in it,” and I said, “What is the use iIf you don’t like it?” and Joan said: “I do like it. I said I thought the color was very nice—what did you think I said?” and I said, “That is what I thought you said.” 1 said, you really like it?” and Joan sald, “Well, what did you think I meant?” and I said, ‘“Don’t you BEDTIME STORIE Sign of Trouble. all_algns s rn-h. indesd. o there are that' you should heed. «ld Mother Nalure.

Over in the Green Forest, in a cer- tain lonesome place, Hooty and Mrs. Hooty, the Great Korned Owlis, were awaiting a happy event. It .was al- most time for the shells of the two eggs in their nest to be picked open and for two homely,little babies to enter the Great World. Not many knew that Hooty and Mrs. Hooty had eggs there. Those who did know it did not seem to be particularly happy about it. “I don't know what this world coming to,” S8ammy Jay would say. don’t know what this world is coming to. There are owls and hawks enough now. With two more owls, and hun- gry ones at that, there is bound to be a heap of trouble in the Green Forest. Yes, sir, there is bound to be a heap of trouble in the Green Forest.” A lot of other people felt just the same as Sammy Jay did. Peter Rabbit just couldn’'t keep away from aver there. He knew that there was noth- ing under the sun or the moon that Mr. and Mrs. Hooty would rather have for dinner than rabbit, but he couldn’t keep away from there. You see, he knew that once there were bables up in that nest high above his head Hooty and Mrs. Hooty would spend most of their time hunting. That was going to mean hard times for everybody, and especially for those with young fami- lies growing up.

BURGESS were little Mrs. Peter who said it, it would be a different matter. So Peter spent a great deal of time over near where Mr. and Mrs. Hooty were living. He nted to know as soon as possible when real trouble was Iikely to begin. And it just happened that he learned the news before any one else. He had gone over to his fa- vorite hiding place under some small thickly growing hemloc! jose to the foot of the tree in which and Mrs. Hooty had their nest. As usual, he used his eyes to discover how many of those curfous little balls had been dropped since he was there last.

THE DAILY HOROSCOPE Friday, March 11. | Astrologers read tomorrow as rather an unimportant day in planetary di- rection. It is a time for pursuing routine duties. Under this direction of the stars there may be a feeling of discontent and a tendency to eriticise one's con- dition in life. There should be deter- mined self-discipline while this con- figuration prevails. Gossip may be prevalent under this sway and the tendency to believe the worst may cause heartaches. It wise to bridle the tongue. Trade with South America China Is to develop amazingly, despite all signs to the contrary, astrologers predict. Again it is foretold that America will add many new millionaires to the is | and | ready long list, for there will be speedy wealth accumulated in 1927, uniess the signs are misread. Kngineers are to be in great de- and, for there is to be much rail- rond bullding in foreign countries. Persons whose birth date it is may TRY THIS WAY have a year that is rather unsettled, but nevertheless fastunate. . Children born on that day may be fond of travel and adventure. They are likely to be rolling stones unless wisely directed. (Coyright. 1027.) e Deviled Sandwiches.
