have about liking a married man.
After the flowers came 1 telephoned light
over to Agnes, asking her to come In to
see my new dinner frock that had Just

saw the box and the note she was full 'of
curiosity. It is the first letter I ever had
from a man. and I feel as though I am
at last seeing life. I told her it was from
Mr. Wlnton as carelessly as possible.
She said, "Isn't it a bore to get notes
like that?" and I said, "Yes It Is rather,
though it is funny how at first they used
to thrill you." She said she had received
positively hundreds of them and so many
Rowers that she was sick of the sight of
them. She said she supposed I knew what
a desperate flirt Ned Wilson was.
I began to wish I hadn't asked her over
to see the dinner frock. I said, as he
ratherd amused me. I thought I would send
him a line telling him he could come, as I
was getting a little tired of tha other men.
I said I shouldn't wonder if I changed my
mind, though.
After she had gone I sat down and wrote
some rough drafts of a note to send him.T

afternoon and Cousin Anne sat and talked
to him for a while, but had to go out In a

sary to make each costume a thing of per
fect beauty.
An adorable little gown, which was ona
of an outfit dealgned for wear at Palm
Beach. Is shown in the first Illustration.
It was fashioned from ftne white linen and
trimmed with lace. The bodice had a drop
yoke of the lace, extending down tha
sleeves and ending In a' point. From be
neath this yoke fine hand-run tucks ex
tended to the bust line. These tucks wers
also In the sleeves and skirt. In the skirt
they started at the waistline, which was
Just slightly raised, and ended at about
hip depth. Quite the most attractive fea
ture of the frock was the deep straight,
flounce of lace. This flounce did not ax
tend across the front It ended Just slightly'
within the edges of the panel formed by
the center-front tucks. The tucked upper
portion was laid Into this flounce with
the tucks perfectly flat.
The selection of the aouthern outfit Is
naturally influenced by Just which resort
Is to be visited. At Palm Beach, the mid
winter Newport of this country, a far'
more elaborate and complete outfit Is
requisite than at Nassau, for example,
where life Is simpler and the visitors go
In much more genuinely for unfettered out
door life. Bermuda, again, requires a less
summerlike trousseau, and there must be
smart cloth costumes and gowns of voile
and silk Instead of only the linen and
lingerie frocks that the climate of Florida
demands. At Aiken, on the other hand,
and the different communities In Georgia,
Carolina and Virginia such an outfit aa
would do service In the north during tha
early spring will be what la needed.

To Clean I'lanw Keys.
I do not know how to prevent the keys
of piano from becoming yellow, but they
can be whitened by touching lightly with
a clean rag dipped In Javelle water, and
Wiping off with clear water afterwards.
1 ,1ft the key to be cleaned above tha
others with a finger and hold It firmly.
Secondly, use "only the very smallest
amount of javelle water, because If you
let any of either liquid drop on to the wood
It will cause the wood to swell.
The process Is, however, safe If a womaa
will be careful.
If one key Is cleaned at a time and tha
directions given are followed success will
