More black than white appears in the other model, whose satin skirt is veiled with white chiffon banded with three strips of sash-width black velvet ribbon. As the lower band covers the skirt half way to the knees and the upper band is applied a few inches be- low the base of the hips, the only ex- panse of clear white occurs between the upper band and the waist line of a black velvet bodice. This bodice, whose slightly crossed fronts button at the left, low and diagonally, is closely fittea at sides and satin surface. These are the most alluring of dancd frocks, as rose four to six inches, and because as the ribbon-bordered tulle overskirt meets the underdress there is small dan- ger of damage to the gauzy fabric. A second band of ribbon { just above the knees is seven inches { Wide, and a third band bordering the upper skirt is nine inches broad. Charmingly simple is this model, and good in almost any color. But in black it is very new, very unusual and exceedingly chic. Ribboned White Tulle. All-white frocks in tulle and ribbon are destined to be immensely popular, especially with young girls and with matrons whose figures are still girl- | ish. The tulle employed is exceedingly | firm, though filmy an 3 the ribbon of shimmering, gleaming material is most effective. A (r.ock of this sort is splendid for dancing, and is being shown by Henri.

McMillan with Carlotta Nillson playing the leading role will be shown at Fox’s theater today and to- morrow as the stellar attraction. A short synopsis follows: Leah, daughter of Kleschna, the master thief of France, is taught and forced to assist him in his evil prac- tice. Rescued at the Bazaar fire in Paris, she awakens to love and a Tealization of her degraded position. She comes within contact of the re- fining and regenerating influence of Paul, whom she learns to worship in secret. General Berton urges Paul to use his influence to stop Raoul, his son, and the brother, and the brother of Paul’s flancee, Claire, from visiting Leah, with whom he is infatuated. Kleschna, who is in Paris under an assumed name, is recognized by Paul and ordered to leave France at once. Kleschna determines, before leaving France, to steal the famous Sylvian necklace from Paul, intended for Claire. He compels Leah to assist him in this evil enterprise. Kleschna forces a window by which Leah en- ters Paul’s house, where she is sud- denly confronted by Faul, in* whom she recognizes her hero. He sym- the story of her past life and crim- inal training. At this moment Raoul enters, and Paul niGes Leah. Raoul accidently find her in the house, and in an outburst of jealousy, accuses both Leah and Paul. To protect Paul Leah dramatically confesses that she is a thief, and had broken into the house to steal. Paul takes advantage of her sacrifice and ushers her out. Later, after Raoul's departure, Paul finds the jewel case empty. Paul is left in suspense as to which of the two obtained the jewels. Leah for- sakes her father, and lives a new life far from Paris. When later, it is determined that Raoul was the thief, Paul seeks Leah, Claire having now refused to marry him and finds her a regenerated and redeemed wo- man, He returns with her to Paris, and they are wedded, and the neck- lace becomes Leah's wedding gift from Paul.

A sleeveless overblouse s a handy thing to hide tightness or any imperfection in a worn walst. In choosing autumn coats, it is well to remember that cheviot takes a large pattern particularly well. Brassieres become more and more airy and delicate. Some have no trimming at all, to save bulkiness, The best style for the tub skirt is the plain, straight hanging skirt made with two, three or four widths. A decided ripple is noticed in many of the new hip-length coats. Usually they are worn with flaring skirts. Lace will be liberally used on evening gowns the coming autumn— bodices and slecves.

The Value of Control By RUTH CAMERON. “The Red Sox have hought a new pitcher,” said the Cynic to the Author- man. So | saw—paid five thousand dollars for him,’ “As if any man, even a pitcher, was actually worth that much!’ polated the Author-Man's wife. “It always puzzles me, this baseball talk,” said Molly, the little stenog rapher lady. “They pay such big prices tor some of the players. Why &hould one pitcher be worth more than another? Any man can throw & ban!” “It's because some pitchers can curve the ball more than others,” ex- plained the Author-man’s wife, rather loftily. “Not exactly,” said the Cynic, with a smile. “Almost any man can throw a ball and every pitcher can curve it. But some can control that curve and others can’t. That is the difference. There are pitchers who can curve a ball around a house and who have so much speed that they burn holes in the atmosphere, but they are all playing ball back in the bushes, simply because they haven't got control.” “Yes,” added the Author-man, “and there are lots of men in other businesses than baseball, who are back in the bushes because of the same lack—they haven't got control. They've got brains and energy to spare, but they can't control them. 1 remember a chap in my class at college that we all expected great things of. He was brilliunt and when he got going he could do almost anything he wanted to. But he was as erratic as a jack rabbit. We all thought he would settle down and do something big, but the last time I heard of him he was just getting by.” “But it seems to me as if every pitcher could get control, if he has the other things,” said the Author-man's wife. “They could,” answered the Cynic “if they went at it right. But they rely on thelr curves and their speed and they think, just because they have speed and curves, that they are going to be big-league players. About that time their lack of control ditches them and they land back in the bushes somewhere.” “But how do pitchers develop control?” asked Molly. “Well,” said the Cynic, “they first determine just what they want to do and then they go out in & back lot somewhere and practice for hours, for days, for months—sometimes for vears, so that they know just where the ball is going to a fraction of an inch, when it leaves their hands. They are real pitchers—the kind baseball magnates bid $10,000 or so for.” “I suppose,” said the Lady-who-always knows-somehow, speaking for the first time—"that the moral is plain—find out just what you want to do with yourself and then set yourself at work doing it over and over again 80 that you will know that you can do it, not just once in a while—but every time.” “Just so,” agreed the Cynic, the author.
