If I hadn’t, I'm sure don't know what I would do. Can a woman maintain a decent apart- ment and eat decent meals and pay a maid's wages on $8 a week? Ev- erybody knows that she can't.” There is a strong touch of the lu- £ | dicrous in the poor woman's joy that her father is living to support her, Perhaps that is all she considers any man good for. Is it really fortunate for her that she has a father living? It's doubt- ful. She will very likely go on mak- body pays her bills, teaching in the value of money. She appeared in the court room wearing a huge bouquet of violets that scent- ed the whole building. She needs to learn that a woman should be some- thing more than a bouquet-holder. Labor is no curse. It is wise old nature's method of making us of use to the world and saving us from be- ing intolerable nuisances selves, If money were not hard to get none of us would ever have solved the problem of living on $8 a week. Violets are sweet, but there are many far more important things in the world than violets. Not all the perfume of life should be in the nos- trils. We truly possess it only when it is in the soul. And it is in the soul only when we have earned it. The woman who does not know it is possible to live on $3 a week doesn’t know what living is. more than half the women of this| country live on les sthan that and live happily and usefully ! The humble wives and mothers the world do not need violets at their breasts to put perfume into millions of lives.—Pensacola Journal. —— Real Object of Life.

This may have helped on the vogue of the lace cap, trimmed with narrow rib- bon, and ribbon or millinery flowers, which s worn in the house during the day time. It is a pretty fashion and helps out the breakfast-table appear ance most effectively. But the caps, hair bands and other decorative features worn on the head in the evening are much more than pretty. They are rich, brilliant and many of them expensive. Mock jew- els and feathers, small, ribbon flower and millinery flowers, with fancy bands, many pendant tassels and fringes and decorated bands of black velvet, these supply the factors wherewith designers make up in- NEVER before have women of SEPARATE SKIRT A NECESSITY Many Materlals From Which to Choose, but Garment Must Be In One’'s Wardrobe, 1t you would profit by the example of French tailors, you will order sep- arate skirts of one of the following materials: First, a double-faced cloth that has leaped into important place is being used. It practically trims itself, and will be very popular for this econom- ical reason. Then there are cheviots and serges for lightweight models, and all colors are in vogue, the neutral shades and dark blue leading. Heavy fancy suitings are very popu- lar. The English tweeds and mixed suitings are having a tremendous favoritism shown them by the leading houses. Tailored skirts are not so straight in ' outline, many showiag slashed effects at the side, and all are made walking length, Somo have a slightly raised walst-| band, so that no belt is needed, while | with aj others show a normal line, stitched band attached to the skirt. On others, a back panel is attached with a modified front edge that ex- tends toward the front, thus forming a belt or girdle. MATCH THE HAIR AND EYES Appropriate Touch of Color In the Tol- lette Adds Immensely to the Appearance. To be becomingly dressed is the de- sire of every woman worthy of the name, and here I would say one I8 greatly helped towards this end If in one’s toilette a touch of color to match the hair and eyes Is introduced. It accentuates one’s “points.” For ex- ample, an ideal dance frock for a lark- haired girl would be a pale green shot with mauve crepe de sole.

Water Softener. One of the best water-softeners for shine, to carry your cargo and | winter use is that of a mixture of al- or o ¢ mond meal, powdered borax, and oat- meal. These powders shou]d be sifted together and then enclosed in small muslin bags. In These Strenuous Times.

The Egyptian ideas are especlally effec: tive, the German bands especially popular, They have been so elaborat- ed that they sometimes suggest bon- nets rather than bands.

The glowing red tones that are seen in the feather decked hats of the winter season are repeated in the baliroom, where flame, carnation, rhododendron, rose, cerise and currant shades make vivid splash- es of color.
