Chlidishly Simple Affalr That Is Eae- lly Made and Has Most Dressy Aln~No End to Possibliities of Little Frock, Who has not seen some little street dress of exceptional simplicity and smartness go by and forthwith longed for it—the sort of dress that seems 80 easy to make, that is in just the right material, that is -wonderfully chic and yet eminantly practical? Such a dress is displayed in the fllustration, and it the model seems very suggestive of the winter vogue let me tell you that Mistress Fashion knows when & thing is too good to be set aside. This frock, which {8 almost childishly sim- ple, has a quality for every age ex- cept tender childhood; the 16-year-old wears {it, the woman of 30, the woman of 60. The making of the entire get-up 18 a joke, the surplice bodice and the trim skirt being so simple in thelr lines and with so few seams, yet altogether the dress has a dressy alr, and it may be made smarter still. As {llustrated, the frock, which would be admirable for a high school or college girl, is in one of the new shadow- striped cloths made on the bias. The color is blue, black and white striped velvet forming a handsome trimming for the bodice. The natty little hat is of black chenille braid and the roses (| a~ e € Ak < which compose the sole trimming, are in a dull pink. A dress of blue French serge or di- agonal wool made up in this manner would be very useful, and for the bodice trimming black surah or a cheap quality of Ottoman silk could be used. In fact, there s no end to the possibilities of this little frock, whose model will be used as well for golf and tennis and for endless wash THE EVENING TELEGRAM LAK ELAND, FLA., MARCH 1, 1913. CHIC AND PRACTICAL'REPLIES TO QUERIES |Sssocamss | fabrics of a sensible sort which make up the betwixt-and-between frocks of summer, While considering these little frocks, pray remember, as before hinted, that fabrics in the last agony are not needed. Look, too, at the dress “lengths” now being sold in all the shops at prices varying from two-fifty to seven dollars, Some of these may be left-overs from last spring, but it matters little if the weave is soft, the| color light and the model used up to date. One great shop recently had a sale of these lengths, with other counters showing the trimmings, but- tons, braids or laces that would be needed for the various textures. Some were winter things, some seemed to| belong to & generation ago, and| there were single buttons and some wisps of gold and silver trimming no more than six inches long. Yet out of the jumble one woman selected enough matching materials to make six distinct gowns, the charming half dozen costing just twenty-five dollars. Everything, in fact, is grist nowadays to the woman who knows how to dress and buy, and there is no denying the immense. advantage of the annual shop sales to small purses.

A 8ad Condition, I am a girl of fifteen years. I am not high tempered or stubborn, as some are, but no one likes me. I can- not make friends. I go to high school, and would like to have some one to walk around the town with at noon- time, as I take my lunch. But I can find no one who seems to care for my company. Please tell me how to gain friends and be friendly. How is my writing, and my punctuation?— Bashful, BARGAINY Include everything in the line of Dry Goods, Dress Your writing and punctuation are unusually good, and I cannot imagine a girl your age not having friends. Just try being interested in whatever s going om, don't think of yourself, and be as lively as possible. The Good Book says: “A man that hath friends must show himself friendly.” Try it Goods and Novelties, and A Musical Pastime. I read your sugggstions on pnter tainment with much interest and I am looking for a musical contest of some kind, a guessing game with musical terms for answers, or something of the kind.

High shoes are always worn by people of good sense in the winter time for outdoor use, Some persons prefer low ones with spats, but they are not conducive to perfect health, The man takes the lead al- ways in a public place, making room for the lady who follows him. All colors are worn, perhaps all shades of blue and brown taking the lead. Reception Etiquette. Is it customary in social circles to take leave of the hostess when she is recelving ladies at a large afternoon reception or tea? What does the inclosure of visiting cards with the invitation card sig- nify? When a reception is given in honor of one or more ladies, should cards also be left for those in whose honor the tea or reception is being given, as well as for the hostess? Would it be proper for an elderly lady, who still wears her widow's bon- net, with veil, to wear such a bonnet to an afternoon reception? Is it customary to acknowledge in- vitations to receptions or afternoon teas?—Holly. Our prices are reasonable. ways please.

A visiting card enclosed with an invitation means that the hostess could not make a call in person. Cards should be left for all those in whose bonor the recepticn is given. A widow may with perfect propriety wear her mourning, for some widows never take Off their veil, and it is no reason they should be debarred from social events, It one goes to the reception no me- knowledgment is required, but it not able to go & card is sent to arrive Come and See Our Spring Style PATRICIAN SHOES For Ladies Secamless Pamps.....Pateat and Velvet Salh, e by st st Clough Shoe Company Nothin et B i W.
