WOMAN’S PAGE, Combining Figured Materials BY MARY MARSHALL. Combining two figured materials in one ensemble is a difficult business, not because in theory the idea is not sound, but because of the difficulty of getting two figured fabrics whose tones are all ‘THE PRINTED SILK FROCK HAS A SHORT JACKET OF SILK PRINTED IN THE SAME DESIGN AS THE FROCK. in harmony. It is like serving two elaborately made dishes in the same course at dinner. It can be done, but it is difficult to get just the right com- bination of flavors in both concoctions. One way to achieve good results in combining the two sorts of figured ma- terials is by using two different sorts of fabric in the same design and color, and in most stores where material is sold by the yard it is possible to buy chiffon and crepe de chine to match which may be used in a variety of ways. Chiffon and taffeta printed in match- ing colors and design may be used for evening ensembles—the chiffon for the dress and the taffeta for the short Jacket or cape, which is such an indis- pensable addition to Spring and Sum- mer evening clothes. ‘The idea of combining mixed woolen materials with colored figured prints is rather new, and this season some of the stores show mixed tweedlike fabrics with specially selected printed silks. ‘The lightweight wool may be used for seven-eighths-length coat, with the silk for the dre: S, ‘This week’s circular gives designs for making a number of nautical emblems | which are embroidered in red, white or blue on the sleeves of the new middy blouses or jackets.

NANCY PAGE Suits Adapted to Varying Accessories. BY FLORENCE LA GANKE. When Nancy went through the shops and saw all the possibilities for making suits “different” by the chang- ing of blouses or other accessories she knew that she would have to own at least one suit. In the blouse section of her favorite shop she saw a wide assortment—first there was the one made of striped pink and white candy silk. This had a tailored air with its trim, turn-down collar and bosom of stripes going crosswise. ‘The eyelet embroidered batiste blouse had something of a butterfly frill. Eye- let embroidered batiste has come back into style and is as quaint as it is charming and smart. The }:lnln blouse with knotted tie is made of soft de chine, while the frilled one with tal and tucks was a Patou model made in the fashionable new shade of pink. This blouse was of crepe de cl . ‘With the suit Nancy planned to wear a fur scarf. When she looked at them in the furriers’ she discovered that there was almost as much variety in scarfs as there was in blouses. Both fluffy and flat furs are used. The flat furs are as supple as textiles and may be tied in soft bows. Or one end of the scarf may be slipped through a slit in the longer part. Nancy believed that she could make a scarf like this at_home. The flufty furs—like silver, pointed and cross fox—are just as flattering with Spring suits as they are on Winter coats. At least, that was Nancy’s ob- servation. New suits are easy in line but they still require & trim, supple figure to show them at their best.'

Times there are when we must own We much prefer to be alone. —Mrs. Quack. Ordinarily Mrs. Quack is not quick tempered, but, as she said, almost any one would be quick tempered if they were stumbled over; and Peter Rabbit had to admit that this was so, He had stumbled over her as she sat on her nest, hidden under a big plant of skunk cabbage. Mrs. Quick had promptly struck him with her bill and beaten him with her wings, and at the same |ly. time given Peter a terrible fright. But when Mrs. Quack found out who it was who had stumbled over her, and Peter Rabbit found out who it was he had stumbled over, there were no longer any hard feelings.

It is just a nice swim down the Laughing Brook. I don’t see much | of him these days. But then, I don't want to.” “Why not?” demanded Peter, look- ing_astonished. “Because,” replied Mrs. Quack, “I prefer to be alone. I feel safer then. If Reddy Fox or Old Man Coyote should | happen to see Mr. Quack hanging around, they would be likely to suspect was somewhere about .and would come looking for me. I hope neither of them stumbles over me the way you did.” . i Peter grinned. “You certainly did give me a scare, Mrs. Quack,” said he. *You see, it hadn't entered my head that you were anywhere about. I thought you went with the rest of the flock when they moved North.” “Didn't I tell you that Mr. Quack and I had decided to stay?” inquired Mrs. Quack. Peter nodded. “You did,” said he, “but when I came over here the next night you were nowhere to be seen.

To be quite truthful, Peter, we hadn't intended to nest here, but when we found such a perfectly lovely place for a nest, we decided that we couldn't do better than to make our home right here. You see. I didn't expect any one to come stumbling over me.” Peter grinned. “You were lucky, Mrs. Quack, that it was I who did it,” said he. Mrs. Quack nodded very emphatical- “Right you are, Peter,” sald she. “I was lucky—very lucky. Now, if you'll excuse me, I've got to turn these eggs.

The neckline is unusual in square outline at front with rounded collar effect at back. It uses a blocked gingham in lovely orchid coloring with purrle binding.

A WASHINGTON DAYBOOK BY HERBERT PLUMMER, WORLD notables for the past 10 years have found in Stephen Geyer Porter a genial maitre de capitol when they have visited Washington. To_the tall, handsome chairman of the House foreign affairs committee usually falls the duty of escorting visiting royalty and high foreign personages about the Capitol. 3 Lord Robert Cecil once referred to Porter as “Lord Stephen.” But on the hill and to those who know him he is “Steve.” Although he has been in Congress continuously since 1910, it was not until ~after the World War that Porter came into nationali promi- nence. His name was heard often in discussions of post-war problems. Few men in Congress have the grasp of foreign affairs that Porter has. During the World War, despite the fact that he was of a different political faith, President Wilson frequently con- sulted him on questions dealing with the American war policies. In addition fo seeking his advice on post-war_problems, President Harding appointed Porter a member of the ad- visory committee which represented the House of Representatives at the Wash- ington Conference on Limitation of Armaments. There are few parts of the world Porter has not seen. His travels have given him a knowledge of foreign affairs which is intimate. Born on a_farm in Ohio, Porter was brought to Pittsburgh by his parents at the age of 8. He started out in life to be & physician, but law soon claimed him. He read law with his brother and succeeded in_ gaining admittance | to the Allegheny County bar in 1893. Around In 1910 the thirty-second Republican district of Pennsylvania sent him to | Congress, and he has been returned at | every electic since. When he entered the ‘House, he severed all connections with law and has devoted his whole time to public service. He has held only one other public office—city solicitor of Old Allegheny (Pittsburgh), a position he held while practicing law. ’ | ‘Thoroughly at home in any situation and with any class of people, Porter is one of the most democratic public men in Washington. Porter talks to his taxi driver just| as if he were a friend taking him for | a ride. Taxi fares, salaries of drivers, | peak hours of business, in fact the | whole picture of the taxicab industry | is elicited by Chairman “Steve.” At one time in his life Porter was considered one of the best huntsmen | in Washington. Ill health forced him | to get out into the open often and he was a crack shot with the rifle His ability along this line won for him a nickname that is sometimes heard now—"Caribou Steve.” Cheese Straws. | Cream one tablespoonful of butter | and to it add two-thirds cupful of flour, one cupful of bread crumbs, one cup- ful of grated or cut cheese, half a teaspoonful of salt. one-fourth teaspoon- ful of pepper and a pinch of cayenne pepper.

P, On September 29, 1654, Oliver Crom- well, Protector of England, and several oPthir gentlemen picnicked in Hyde ark. Count Oldenburg had sent six fine horses as a gift to Cromwell, and after dinner he decided to drive them. They ran off, throwing him. His feet be- came entangled in the reins and he was dragged several yards before he could get loose. Meantime a pistol in his pocket exploded He was only slightly hurt. But the presence of that pistol in his pocket proved the melancholy fact that Crom- well's life always was danger—not from runaway horses, but from as- sassins. Indeed, the bane of his aged mother's existence was the fear that her great son would be murdered. In her nineties to hear gun-fire made her start and ex- claim, “My son is shot Perhaps the man most responsible for the attempts on Cromwell’s life was Prince Charles, who, in a later day, was to ascend the throne as Charles II After a feeble attempt had been made by the Royalists to stir up an uprising and kill the Lord Protector as he rod into London to see the Lord Mayor, Charles fell so low as to offer from France bribes for the assassination of Oliver. “Whereas,” ran a proclamation is- sued by him, “a certain mechanic fel- low, by the name of Oliver Cromwell * * * has most traitorously usurped the supreme power, we will give freedom and liberty to any man within any of our three kingdoms to destroy by pistol, sword or poison, or any means whatso- ever, the life of the said Oliver Crom- well.” To this “liberty” was added promises of a pension, horors and public em- ployment. A 22-year-old gentleman, Col. John Gerard, visited France in the Spring of 1654, was presented to Prince Charles and returned to England with a fully prepared plan for the assassination of Cromwell, to be accompanied by an up- rising to be supported by foreign troops.

In the meantime another party would start an uprising in the city. Up to within an hour of the time when it was expected that Cromwell would be seized the two plotters were in high confidence. But the spies of the protector were everywhere. They had learned of the plan, and, just when Gerard and Vowel were most ‘optimistic, they were arrested. Forty-odd other royalists were captured with them. Cromwell considered that it was time to make treason against his government a dangerous venture. He staged a sen- sational trial, as a result of which Vowel was hanged and Gerard, on his own plea, was beheaded. There were other attempts on Crom- well's life, but none succeeded.
