WOMAN'S PAGT) THE Possibilities of the Sweater BY MARY I would advise every woman in mak- ing plans for her Spring and Summer wardrobe to consider the possibilities of the sweat o these con- the sportswear he smart shops : I me of t KNITTED SWEATERS IN YELLOW, ORANGE AND RED. sweaters with lace < borders; vividly MARSHALL. cardigans, coat sweaters, slip-on sweat- ers and pull-on light-weight sweaters in plain coloring of the sort known as ten- nis sweaters, usually made with cap sleeves or sleeves extending to the elbow. But don't, I beg of you, consider the sweater as a sort of us2ful house coat, a garment that you can leave knocking about to put on over your gingham house frock on chilly mornings or to lend to a friend who has come off on a chilly day with a too thin coat. There are little jackets of silk, cloth or corduroy or lighter ones of pique or chintz that are much better suited for such purposes and that hold their shape so much better than a sweater can possibly do. If the sweater is to be smart it must be part of an ensemble, and it must be treated with respect. A lacy sweater in | a pastel tone worn with a pleated silk skirt to match makes an appropriate informal indoor afternocn ensemble, that may later be worn outdoors with- out a coat. Slip-on sweaters of light weight may be worn with the two-piece tailored street suit with smart effect. And incidentally, if you know how to knit why not put your talents to good use and knit a sweater or two? Many of the smartest new models are of the hand-knit sort. To wear with your sweater and sep- arate skirt or your new two-piece suit you will need ‘two or three sleeveless blouses. This week’s pattern diagram shows how you may easily make a blouse of this sort at home. = The front and back are perfectly straight at the top with little shaped shoulder pieces giving the new youthful straight neck- line.

Y poor little girl,” seid the haughty, gray-haired’ wom- an seated at the patient's bedside. “Everything seems to conspire to retard your convalescence. Try to eat your egg, sweetheart.” “I don't believe I can,” said the in-| wvalid, languidly. “Oh, but you'll take it from mother. Tl feed you, darling.” Mrs. Mayland emptied the egg into a cup, put a sprinkle of salt and a plece of butter in it, and held a spoon- ful to her daughter's lips, The girl opened her mouth in the manner of a newly hatched chick recelving a worm from the parent bird, and little by little the egg disappeared. “That's wonderful, precious,” said ! the mother, with an approving Kkiss. Her supper finished, Miss Mayland reached for her mirror and vanity case and the nurse knew she was preparing for the doctor’s evening call. It had seemed incredible at first that Dr. In- graham, the most popular of the younger members of the hospital staff, should fall a victim to such a shallow and selfish girl: But it had proved to be only too true, and Grace Roe had suffered severely in consequence. The toilet articles were scarcely re- moved when the doctor knocked and entered. He bowed mechanically to Mrs. Mayland and said tenderly to her daughter, “How are we feeling to- night?” Miss Roe, fearful of betraying the tumult in her breast, has left the room. In the corridor outside she met Miss Pierce, the night nurse, z “How's the hospital’s prize nuisance?” asked Miss Pierce. “As usual she's—difficult.” “Luckily for me—and for herselt— she sleeps nights. Otherwise I'd be|a message instead?” fempted to give her a pill that would | ~“I said,” insisted Miss Mayland coldly, quiet her for good.

She’s well enough.” Miss Mayland went home the fol- Jowing week and the announcement of her enfigmnt to Dr. Ingraham fol- Jowed shortly after. “Hm!” scoffed Miss Pierce. “Some people are born to trouble and some geople have trouble thrust upon them. ut Dr. Ingraham goes looking for it with a lanfern. Between that pretty, pampered ninny and her field marshal of a mother he'll stand at attention for the rest of his life.” - Pampered ninny Miss Mayland might be. but that didn't lessen Dr. Ingra- ham’s feeling of self-congratulation, nor did it alter Grace Roe's conviction that justice was very unevenly distrib- uted in the world. Not even graduation, the evemt she had looked forward to GARDEN IN ROMANCE BY MARY POTTER DAVIS. ‘The garden has often been found on the pages of the world’s famous ro- mances, novelists and poets using 1t es- pecially as a setting for their love scenes. Young ladies of the Victorian age rev- eled in the story of Lalla Rookh, the beautiful Indian princess who journeyed from her royal home in Delhi among the lovely gardens of her grandfather, the great Shah of Jehan, to the ro- mantic Vale of Cashmere, where she was to meet the young Prince Alaris of Bokhara, whom she had never seen, and become his bride. The pictures of the scenes as the princess and her escorting cavalcade passed through the vale were delightful to imagine—the road across which Ala- ris had erected arches hung with tor- toise-shell lanterns and festooned with the rare roses that furnish the Attar Gul; the brilliant fireworks which at times illuminated lovely fountdins and grottoes and sometimes revealed gar- dens on the roofs of houses in the lake. Minstrels sang as the royal party neared its destination, reminding the young princess of the handsome young poet, Feramorz, who had entertained her with songs and poems on her journey and stolen her heart. Of course, readers of the older gen- eration remember the outcome—how Feramorz greeted her on the wedding morning as the prince himself, having won her love as a humble minstrel be- fore he claimed it as her royal bride- groom. Many can recall the thrill with which they read of the dramatic mo- ment when Lalla Rookh, starting to ascend the step to the throne in the magnificent pavilion of Alaris, recog- nizes in the unknown prince the be- loved Feramorz and faints at his feet! Ben Hur, after he returned to Anti- och as the adopted sun of the noble Arrius, traveled out to the Grove of Daphne, where lovely gardens added to the allurements of the place whose “lJaw is love, but love without law.” | Robert Hichens, in_ the “Garden of| Allah,” gives an enchanting picture of Count Anteoni’s garden, a green jewel in the desert. It was in a pavilion of the gardens of Rucellai that Romola’s faithless husband was denounced by his foster father, whom he had robbed and forsaken. Michae]l Pupin, in “From Immigrant to Inventor,” speaks of Summer eve- nings in a Serbian garden as being “conducive to the spinning out of tales.” There in his mother’s garden he told to her and his sister and the village wor- thies the stories of his life in America, “which were like wonder tales to their ears” He speaks of dining in his sis- ter's garden during a later visit to his mative village. Many readers have shared the pleasure of “Elizabeth in Her German Garden” and rejoiced with her when she found an appreciative visitor in the famous gardener who divined the outcome of her plans from the beginnings in the garden before him. It was in May, near rections for making, I will be glad to send it to you on receipt of stamped, addressed envelope. (Copyrights 1929.) with intense eagerness for three years, could dispel the gloom which took pos- session of her. She was very much de- pressed indeed as, diploma ig hand and clad in the vestments that her new status called for, she rounded a corner of the hospital corridor and almost col- lided with Dr. Ingraham, whom she hadn’t seen since the announcement of his engagement. She managed to pull herself together sharply and say a few appropriate words. He thanked her, adding, as his eyes took in the white gown and di- loma, “But I'm not the only one to congratulated. T see you're all ready for 1\:1 tussle with the well known cruel world.” “Yes, I'm through.” Her face flushed and she was about to turn away when he put a restraining hand on her arm, saying impetuously, “How would you like to be my office nurse, Miss Roe? We've worked together so often and understand each other so well that I'd rather have you than any one else.” “I'm not a woman to him at all,” she told herself bitterly. “I'm just a ma- chine to carry out his orders. But I'll be near him and share his work in some measure.” “Very well, doctor,” she said, aloud. “As you say, we understtand each other so well.” So Grace Roe was installed as high priestess in Dr. Ingraham’s temple of healing. from which vantage point she was shortly able to discover that the doctor’s engafemem was bringing him as much grief as rapture. On a certain afternoon when the doctor’'s office was filled with patients, Miss Roe was surprised by the unex- pected appearance of Felicia Mayland and her mother, with the request that Dr. Ing be summoned forthwith. “But he is very busy,” she tried to explain. “Some of these people made appointments weeks ahead. May I take speak You will kindly do as you are told. ‘ou are addressing the doctor's flan- cee,” Mrs. Mayland further reminded the nurse. “Call him at once, and hurry, please.” “Very well,” agreed Miss Roe, her face a bright pink as she showed them to & room at the rear of the house. “And I hope you meet with your just de- serts, you pair of vultures,” she apos- trophized them silently, knocking at the door of the doctor’s private sanctum. “Miss Mayland and her mother are here, doctor, and insist on seeing you.” LITTLE BENNY BY LEE PAPE.

Wee Peter, Repeter—Peter Page, Junior, was growing by leaps and bounds. “Why shouldn’t he” said Nancy, “when you consider all the food that child gets? He has his orange juice, the milk, long-cooked cereal of farina-like texture. There is his vege- table soup, his puree of vegetables, and apple sauce well sifted and lightly sweetened. Then he gets twice toasted bread and graham crackers. Seems to me I no sconer get one meal over than I start on the next one. But it's worth it. He hasn't had one sick spell and he sleeps like a lamb.” “And roars like a lion when he wants attention,” added Peter. But really he was so proud of his son that he would have boasted had he cackled like a hyena. The baby was now enjoying his baby pen. It was on the floor away from the direct line between doors so that he did not get a draft.

A doctor’s life isn't a succession of matinees and pink teas, you know.” “I don't care what excuses you make,” Pelicla began. ’ “I'm not making any,” he stated em- phatically. “I'm simply telling you that if you marry a doctor you must recon- cile your self to being deprived of his society occasfonally.” “Oh, must I?” She drew his ring from her finger and flung it to the floor. “Let’s go, mother.” Dr. Ingraham stared after them a moment, shrugged his shoulders help- lessly, picked up the scorned ring and returned to his patients. ‘When the last one was gone he sought Miss Roe, busily sorting papers at her desk. “Would lf'ou be surprised to hear,” he asked, smiling grimly, “that my engage- ment to Miss Mayland was at an end? Here's the proof,” he added, taking the ring from his pocket. “What am I to do with an article so useless?” “I'd keep it,” replied Miss Roe, a wave of color crimsoning her cheeks. “Some day you'll meet a woman who'll consider it a privilege—and an honor—to wear a ring of your giving.” He stared and for the first time took note of the delicate color in her face, the sensitive mouth, the shining gray eyes, the curls of auburn hair escaping from beneath the little white cap. Still staring, he returned the ring to his pocket and remarked cryptically, “Men are awful fools.” “Are they?” she murmured. “Yes. They go searching for gold afar —when it’s lying on their hearthstones. They travel around the world looking for the bluebird of happiness that’s been singing over their door posts for ages. They—but let’s not philosophize. I have a free evening and some theater tickets. Will you honor me with your company, Miss Roe?” The End. (Copyright, 1920.) Cheese Savory.

He came from the field when the noon horn was blowing, possessed of a priceless and wonderful thirst, and then he would keep that old bucket a-going, until his wife feared that his buttons would burst. Perhaps after dinner the poet felt rocky, and sat in the floor as though tired of the game; his joints were all sore and his inwards were balky, and anguish pervaded his toil- beaten frame. “I fear I am poisoned,” he’d presently mutter, accusing his wife, or his aunt, or his niece; “rat poison I fear you have placed in the butter—so ring up the doc and the chief of police.” And then the poor poet grew sicker and sicker, and suffered such anguish as no one can tell; and no one suspected the rm-ridden liquor, the poisonous water e drew from the well. The doc thought it likely the victuals were tainted, of which the sick poet with freedom par- took, and marvelous pictures of terror he painted, to rattle the woman who acted as cook. Now scientists tell us the old oaken bucket was deadly as cobras or moccasin_snakes; the fellow athirst who would raise it and suck it was bidding for death or the flercest of aches. Hpw many have perished in anguish from quaffing from old oaken buckets no fellow can tell, from moss- covered buckets—excuse me for laugh- ing—from fron bound huckets that hung in the well.

It is re- rted that his remains will rest from sundown today until dawn tomorrow under the great archway of the Arc de_Triomphe. The Arc, in a manner of speak- ing, is the hub of "| a wheel where noble avenues of Paris converge. Among them are the Champs Ely- sees, Avenue Vic- tor Hugo, Bois de Boulogne, Avenue de Wagram, Ave- nue Kleber, Ave- nue de Friedland, Avenue Hoche and Avenue de Ia Grande-Armee. The Arc was erected 123 years ago at an approxi- mate cost of $1,800,000. Ralsed as a memorial to the soldiers of France, it it visited annually by hundreds of thousands of tourists. Since November 11, 1920, the monu- ment has acquired a new significance, for beneath the stone floor an un- known warrior was entombed that day. At the head of the tomb an eternal flame burns, providing an almost weird sight for those who stand uncovered before it. No more appropriate spot in all Paris could have been chosen by the au- thorities for the final rites over the late allied leader. All funerals are impres- sive, whether they be those of humble laborers or those of kings. Somehow it has always seemed that the European is especially reverent. On innumerable occasions we have seen pedestrians un- acquainted with the deceased raise their hats at the passing of a cortege. Police- men salute as the hearse goes by. Mourners and friends in a slow-moving procession follow the dead to the last resting place. In one of London's main thorough- fares, near Downing street, a monument stands. Hundreds of busses pass it daily. The observing stranger will note that, as buses and pedestrians pass, the men remove their hats. Unless the tourist knows that the cenotaph is a war memorial to the British dead he will wonder at the courtesy. Once ac- quainted with .its significance, he too, will doff his hat when passing. In one country in which we traveled (and perhaps there are others) it is the custom for those pnssin? a funeral to step to the bier and aid in carrying it & few feet. It matters not whether one knew the deceased or whether he was a stranger. LR A reader says that he has just learned that. 66 1-8 per cent of all the species of the animal world are insects. “In spite of that” he continues, “I know some real nice people.” * ok K K Ignorance may not always be bliss, but it has caused heroism to blossom When knowledge might have sent the wise one in hasty retreat. A certain high school boy of muscular proportions had been reared by his family to regard pacifism as a quality to be cherished and prac- ticed. From his infant days he had been admonished to avoid controversy, especially with his fists. A soft answer, he was sold, invariably turned away wrath. Sometimes he found that the other fellow didn’t know this. The youth, while he did not grow up to be a “sis,” nevertheless carefully contrived to es- cape trouble with other lads. One day a strange fellow came to town and moved into his neighborhood. For some reason the stranger did not develop a fancy for the high school boy. In fact, he evinced every indi- cation of hostility. The newcomer was a tough-looking “esg," He usually wore a reg sweater and pulled a capacious cap over one ear. He was the personi- fication of aggressive pugnacity. Tt wasn't long before he began to show his fangs, and several other neighborhood boys walked blocks out of thelr way to avoid contact with the hostile one.” The situation was becom- ing strained. Even the parents began\to take notice. This condition lasted for several weeks, until most of the lads became demoralized. One afternoon the young pacifist de- cided to take action. While the opera- tion might be temporarily painful, the result would justify the effort. The tough guy was standing on the corner searching for trouble.

Text: “If a man die, shall he live again?"—Job xiv: “He hath swallowed up death for- ever.” “Thou wilt guide me with thy | counsel, and afterward receive me to, ! glory.” “And Enoch walked with God: | {and he was not; for God took him.”| |“In Thy presence is fulness of joy; at | Thy right hand there are pleasures for- | | evermore.” “He that believeth in me, though he| dle, yet shall he live.” “Because I live, | ve shall live also.” “Let not your heart | be troubled; believe in God, believe also {in me.

Nowhere does the Bible seek to prove the hereafter. It assumes immor- tality without any questioning and talks about the future state beyond the grave in terms of absolute certainty. The world’s sages and philosophers reason about the matter, but here is a book that seems to know so positively that it never stops to reason. And for that very cause, what it says satisfies our hearts all the more. Its assurance is the very essence that our hearts demand. And most of us accept its assurance with the | same confident certainty with which it is given. We require no proof that we shall live again. We seem to know it, as the Sible seems to know it.

Hour-a-Day Program. A busy mother of four active young- sters has asked me to plan a beauly program for her that will reguire no more than an hour a day. Such a pro- gram will, I think, be of interest to many young mothers who dread to see their figures becoming heavy and their faces lined prematurely. The program must, of course, be planned to fit one’s individual needs, but as an example I am golng to take the case of a matron in her late thirties whose beauty problems are oily hair, eye and mouth wrinkles, and large hips and thighs. The very first thing to do is to have a thorough physical examination by a doctor to see whether any of one’s beauty problems, like puffiness under the eyes, is due to internal conditions. Find out from an eye specialist whether the eye wrinkles are due to strain. Ex- ternal beauty treatments are of little value unless supplemented by proper care of the health. Take stock also of your habits of eating, sleeping, exercis- ing and dressing. Early facial wrinkles and nervous- ness are often caused by ill-fitting shocs. The shoe worn by the average woman deforms and weakens her feet. Tight, round garters may impede the circula- tion of blood in the legs, or the wrong type of girdle or brassieres may en- courage incorrect posture. Lack of reg- ularity of habit may he the beginning of chronic constipation, which is the un- derlying cause of many beauty problems. Remember, too, that mental poise and cheerfulness are prime aids to beauty. The wrinkles caused by fretfulness or worry cannot be erased by massage alone. Happiness elevates the tone of the body as well as raising the spirits; it makes the eyes brighter and the com- plexion clearer. The daily beauty program includes the care of the hair, complexion, hands and figure. The hour allotted to these tasks may conveniently be divided into a short period in the morning and a longer period in the evening at bed- HOLLYWOOD, Gloria Swanson is setting a new fad in Calif,, March 25.— the colony. She has been appearing of late as the sole woman of a group of six or eight. Talk flies, and time also apparently, for the evenings seem to be brief and Jolly for the group, which is made up largely of the same personnel. ‘The Vadja brothers are in the crowd. These Hung‘nmn playwrights rank close to Molnar in the quality of their output. Cedric Gibbons, art director of one of the largest village factories, is another. Gloria herself must be no mean au- thority on movies as they were and are made. And as movies and movies alone are the main dinner topic of Hollywood, this must be unusually snappy and pertinent comment. Gloria Swanson’s beauty seems on the increase. She is far more alluring than she was last year, and her chic is as- suming the severe asceticism approved bly the most exclusive Prench coutou- riers.

Hollywood gets ready for Easter in many ways. One instance is the large sugar crosses on display in a boulevard confectioner’s, with “Hollywood greets you at Easter” in sugar letters.
