By DOROTHY DIX. “Bob wants me to marry him,’ sald the pretty young girl, “and I don't know whether to say yes or mo. Bob's every- thing that a man should be, honest anc onorable, and en- rgetic, and intei- ligent, and tender, nd kind, and con- iderate, and crazy about me. He is one of the men that are gure to get on in the world and if 1 marry him I'm likely to be one of those lucky American wives who are pet- ted and coddled and kept In pink cotton. “But I don't know whether he's @ habit with me, or a mecessity. I don't know wheth- er I love him or like him and I don't know how to find out just where I stand »* how to take the temperature of my ffection and it's making him grouchy and wearing me to skin and bones.” What is your definition of love?’ in- q'ireq the older woman, with a smile.

And the clothes for the girle who are conquering the three Rs and other fundamentals of an education are again foremost in the thoughts of the wise mother. Naturally she desires that her girls shall be guitably and well dressed, and with the simplicity that marks good taste. Her big girl, who has only a year or two of schooling ahead of her, is wearing a long, straight coat of light cloth when she starts out for school. There is a high muffler type of collar in black vel- vet, deep cuffs of the velvet and a saucy tam o’ shanter of the same fabric. Her sister, who has just achieved the dignity of her 'teens, is in blue. The skirt is plaited and the coat with its cape-like tendencles is of a matching materfal. Her hat, a soft beaver, has only a puffing of the silk in the same tone to serve as trimming. The 10-year-old is so anxious to wear her new clothes that the band of fur on the coat of kersey is no detriment. Like the coat, the little cap is banded in fur. The younger children are wearing sensible little frocks of linen, Little Miss Eight-Year-Old i{s very winsome In her dress of dark brown linen, with Quakerlike collar and cuffs of stiff linen. Her still younger sister has the most unusual and yet practical of pina- fores fashioned from claret-colored linen. The sombreness is re- lieved by the ruffle of white linen at the neck and outlining the sleeves. Even the baby has run out to say good-bye, and her nursery dress is the quaintest of all—a scant, very short frock of flowered muslin. ————— Bombs, Battles and Effect on Rain By GAKRETT P, SERVISS, invisible vapor thus formed In its fl Cust appears to form centers of €on- iio Milwible Vupor waaits, wud Leus ih B . | skyward you misht see it wee cloui densation, AUnObhery, us & whvle, wiwuys his & Hl:h.
