rHE use of crape In the decoration
of costumes designed for mourn
ing wear led up to Its use in the mak
ing of dresB accessories. Then came
the all-crape blouse and now we have
the all-crape gown. This Is an ex
treme of the style which Is very' strik
ing Inasmuch as it Is so unusual.
But there Is no good reason why bo
beautiful a fabric as crape should not
be UBed In the making of gowns.
Neckpieces, muffs and other acces
sories made of It proved how adapt
able It Is for garments as well as
millinery. -
ThlB gown Is cut with a rather nar
row draped underskirt and an outer
garment having a rather long basque,
which gives the effect of a tunic.
This Is worn over an under-bodlce of
plaited white chiffon having a high
collar In black. There Is a girdle of
folded crape and the ornaments, which
simulate largo buttons, are mado of
narrow folds of crape also."

For Little Sisters
EVERY little girl has a right to play
In the water and to learn to swim
and be aa much at home In It as her
brother la. The adventurous spirit of
boyhood takes him out with his fel
lows and If water 1b within reach he
Is apt to learn to swim. Girls make
splendid swimmers, and the mere
knowledgo that they possess thla ac
complishment keeps thorn from get

Quite likely there are numbers of
men who swim as well and have as
much endurance. Dut no ono of them
can do better, and no ono of them can
look half as well as this sister to the
mermaids. The exorcise develops all
tho tnuBClos of tho body In tho most
ttnlforra manner. Tho pleasure of
swimming and tho tonic of cool water
aro both healthful.
Nothing could be bettor designed
for the llttlo girl's wator sports than
tho simple onepleco garment shown

consisting of tho perfectly plain waist

tho distinctive character of this un

ornamentation.
In the construction of 'apparel ton

that extremes of stylo are lnappro

they are imperative.
In (he matter of decoration, also,

Stage Fright
Very few people aro really free from
liability to stage fright, and the vet
eran in publio life is Just aB Jlkely to
be affected as Is the novice. Attacks,
moreover, frequently come when they
are least expected. Henco no speak
er or artist con face an audience and
feel sure that he will not have to suf
fer from the tortures of this particu
larly painful form of nervousness.
Musicians, of course, aro the worst
sufferers. Tho performer on a stringed
Instrument Is helpless if his hand
trembles, while the clear enunciation
of a singer can be ruined by that
"catch in tho throat" or that twitch
ing of the lips which is perhaps tho
simplest and most common manifesta
tion of stage fright.

FURNISHED BOND OF AMITY
Discomfited "Good Samaritan" the Un
willing Means of Bringing Rival
Humorists Together.
Onco upon a tlmo two humorists
dwelt In tho samo small town and both
contributed to tho Sunday Star. Ab
was but natural, thoy became wildly
Jealous of each other, and when ono
would win a llttlo more prominence
than his fellow tho other would havo
seven kinds of fits. "Your Pleasant
Valley Items glvo mo a pain!" quoth
ono. "Your proso rhymes niako mo
1111" retorted tho other. Ab they were
about to come to blows there ap
peared on the sceno a Good Samaritan
and to htm they appoaled. "Which of
us Is tho funnier?" they asked. "Neith
er!" wob tho prompt reply. "You are
both as unfunny ns wart hogs, nnd as
tiresome as a trip across tho Sahara!"
Thereat they both sot upon tho gen
tleman from Samaria and beut him
full sore, and dwelt together In amity
forever after.
Moral: From this v.e should learn
that while humorists delight In Quar
reling among themselves, they fre
quently resent criticism from outsid
ers Kansas City Star.
Marriage Causes False Fire Alarm.
Seven minutes of blasts from the
whlstlo of the Passaic Metalwaro com
pany, In honor of tho marriage of the
daughter of tho superintendent, re
cently turned out five volunteer fire
departments. The fog made tho whls
tlo' audible In Rutherford, Nutloy,
Bellovlllo, Garfield and Clifton nnd the
firemen rushed to headquarters at tho
alarm.
It took half an hour to determlno
where the whistling came from. The
wedding which caused tho commotion
united Miss Salllo Karp, 217 Brook
avenue, Passaic, to Michael' F. Ber
nan. Now York Mall.
Short Memory.
Father Why, son, you'vo grown an
other foot since you wont off to col
lege. Son No, father, you forget; I had
two feet when I left home.
A woman loves n man in proportion
to his ability to make her angry.
WRONG BREAKFAST.
Change Gave Rugged Health.
Many persons think that for
strength, they must begin tho day
with a breakfast of meat and other
heavy foods. This Is a mUtake as
anyone can easily discover, for him
self. A W. Va. carpenter's experience
may benefit others. He writes:
"I used to be a very heavy break
fast eater but finally Indigestion
caused me such distress, I becamo
afraid to eat anything.
"My wife suggested a trial of Grape
Nuts and as I had to eat something
or starve, I concluded to take her
advice. She fixed me up a dish and
I remarked at the time that the qual
ity was all right but the quantity was
too small I wanted a saucerful.
"But she said a small amount of
Grapo-Nuts went a long way and that
I n)uBt eat It according to directions.
So I started in with Grape-Nuts and
cream, two soft boiled eggs and some
crisp toast for breakfast.
"I cut out meats and a lot of other
stuff I had been used to eating all
my life and was gratified to see that
I was getting better right along, I
conoluded I had struck the right thing
and stuck to it I had not only been
eating Improper food, but too much.
"I was working at the carpenter's
trado at that time and thought that
unless I had a hearty breakfast with
plenty of meat, I would play out be
fore dinner. But after a few days of
my "now breakfast" I found I could
do more work, folt better in every
way, and now I am not botbored with
Indigestion."

Tho 8treet-cornor orator had gath
ered around him a group of urchins.
Why thoy listened so attentively he
didn't understand; nor probably did
thoy know thoniaelvcs. Simply noth
Ing doing. But tho orator took full
advnntago of his opportunity and de
livered an Improving lecture on the
value of kindness to dumb animals. At
tho end ho sought for somo Illustra
tion to point tho moral and adorn the
tale. It was there at hand. Across
tho way walked a lady, leading two
llttlo dogs In lcnsh. Tho ono was black
and tho other white. "Now," exclaimed

Bald, supposing thoso two dear little
dogs were to start fighting, what

ono llttlo arab turned to look at the
dogs critically and thoughtfully. "Well,

him what Greek grocery, and he said
tho ono right under us, In Hotpot'

and knew nobody of that name, and
to satisfy our curiosity wo went down
BtairB to have a look.
Sure enough, there was what did
look llko "Holpos" on tho end of the
awning, at least there were the let
ters "H QLPO S" standing out In
bold relief. We havo learned since
that It Is an abbreviation used by
tho store which when translated
means "Highest quality, lowest prices,
our standard." To tho average read
er It's all Greek and would easily
pass for a Hellenic name. Qulncy
