When the conductor came around to collect the fares he asked the usual question: “How old is the boy?” After being informed the correct age, which did nct require a fare, the conductor passed on to the next per- n. The lad sat quite still, apparently pondering over something; then, con- cluding that full information had not been given, he called loudly to the conductor at the other end of the car: “And mother's thirty-five."—Har - per's Bazar, Invented Half-Tone Process. George Meisenbach, the inventor of a “half-tone” process by which pho- tographs are transferred to printing blocks, died a few days ago in Ger- many, at the age of 71. The inven- tion of the“half-tone” process over 30 years ago made possible the reproduc- tion of photographs, paintings and drawings in full detail, as in modern newspapers, instead o t in lines.

Black grain leather, well finished and stoutly sewn, is used for a type of vanity bag which will strongly appeal to every woman. Looking, when closed, precisely like a flat hand bag, it holds a detachable panel fitted with strap-secured scent and cold creaw fars, and a shirred bag holding a mir ror, powder sheets and manicure tools. Afternoon vanity bags are fetching affairs of material matching the visit- ing costume, but lined with an ex- quisite pale shade of satin. They are 80 very small and flat that they may be tucked under the girdle. Neverthe- less, they hold a tiny round mirror and a lumb's wool powder puff. Gold-mounted hand bags that re semble receptacles for coin are dainty affairs In white and gold, and another perfectly pardonable feminine deceit of the same type is a long, narrow and dat purse which holds a complete make-up equipment. LONG SLEEVE LINE DEFINITE Indlscreet Treatment of It May Be Depended On to Mar a Gown's Appearance. No feature of a dress requires more careful and discreet treatment than sleeves, and nothing detracts more from the appearance of a gown than over-elaborate ones. Elaborate they intricate of cut, but, withal, their shape must assume a definiteness. This 18 true even of the “angel,” “wing,” and other varieties of the flowing sleeves, although as these are generally of thin materials the ari itself being visible, defines the line. In some instances the long sleeves, close fitting, that are seen in eve: ning dresses are completed at the wrists by wide flowing cuffs wired or stiffened and sowetimes of such ex aggerated proportions that they would extend beyond the finger tips were they to be drawn down over them.

The brief iskirt is attached to the waist with slight gathers, and has the flower bor ! der running around the hem. A soft sash*of azure blue messaline is run under evenly placed straps and tled in s puffy bow in back. | On account of the walst being cut | with kimono sleeves you will prob- | ably wonder how to arrange the ma- terial so that the border will appear {at the lower edge of the sleeves, The | best way is to stitch on a band of the | border, and it there is a narrow even design running through the same bor der a strip of it may be cut out and stitched as a finish to the square neck, 'or. better still, set on with French knots. NOVELTIES IN PLACE CARDS Hostess Who Wishes to Be Strictly Up-to-Date May Get Some Ideas From Designs Pointed Out. Something new in place cards s always of interest to those who fre quently entertain. A quaint design seen recently was a card about one inch wide and three inches long. At the top was a picture of a pretty girl, whose hat, when tilted back, showed the guest's name beneath. Another 'card showed a small messenger boy carrying a small grip. When the grip was lifted the name was found be- neath. A lady with a little fan would ' be another clever idea, or pansies with attached leaves would be neat. | For a stag dinner the cards could be i made with each one to represent the ! guest’s occupation. Cards for the | banker, tailor, editor, merchant, etc., | could be made very quaint it the art i 1st 18 humorist enough to portray a little caricature work in the embellish- ment. These little affairs can be made at home with white cards and cart- ridge paper, and if one can sketch the pictures may be made very attractive. A tiny silk bag in which are tucked a few sprays of artificial flowers, such as lilies of the valley, or small rose- buds, and a small name card, is a de- |l|ghtml combination of place card ! and favor. Floral Fashion. A pretty Louis XV floral head dress ihas been revived for evening wear, according to the Philadelphia Times. It consists of a small oval-shaped flat bouquet of tiny' flowers placed In & slanting position above the temple. Two or three different colored blos- soms are chosen, such as pompom roses, forget-me-nots and violets ia subdued tints: violet pansies, blue bells and lily of the valley; forget-me oots and pansies alone; mauve plaks Come to us for the goods advertised in JOHNSON & JOHNSON'S First Aid Handbook E PHARMACY Store and Joiners of Americe, Local 1776 Moots overy Tuesday night at *? o'clock, at McDonald's ball.
