At seventeen and eighteen years a girl 4 these days rups the very gamut of fashion, often carrying a mode to extreme —which in a miss is in- deed very bad taste. For instance, 1 saw a girl the other day, of just seven- teen, wearing a dress with four straight panels which reached to within two inches of the ground all the way around, I glanced at her twice before 1 knew her. In truth I had al-’ ways thought her unusually pretty, but in this very oldish gown (it was black, @oo), her youthful poise was completely overpow- ered, and her beauty also forced to the background. Now, strange to say, this girl has a mother who should have known better, mo you see it is safe to atate that it is her fault, due to ignorance or indif- ference, in permitting much less sanctioning, such extremes in dress that he: daughter appears to disad- vantage. Any mother should realize that a girl loses much of her charm when gowned extremely or wasuitably. To revert to the younger girl, the bloused effects will be found more modish, apd I bave designed a pretty cape style for to-day which possesses a little more in- dividuality, Hand or ma- chine stitching in contrast- ing color forms a simple or any of the trimming, and a narrow band of theyfabrics.

Five hundred shares would never be of any executive use to the holder. In ordi- nary times the block wouldn't make the scales quiver. But to-morrow! Suddenly Harding decided to go to -|the club. He wasnt ready for beri and if he went to the hotel he would be sure to run into some one he did not care to meet. At the club men knew when and when not to approach him.
