But you make ' them ridiculous. Yes,
you do. You fiddle with your barette.
Your hair la not out of order, and you

and you know that. But you want to keep

yeo In the ay ihat la not flattering
to the cauae-co see how absurdly numerous
were the pretexts found for showing off
the shapely baud a
stant exploitation. And any beauty too ob
viously appreciated by Ita possessor loses
half Ita charm. Putting one's best foot
forward Is advisable until It is thrust out
so far that some one tumbles over It. It
attracts a kind of attention then that Is
painful to the stumbler. It's the Bame with
a continuous thrusting Into notice of a
pretty hand. The observers begin to re

optics and hla admiration.
And let nie whisper this to you: Holding
hande does not get It charm from the
loveliness of the hands held. I have seen
big, coarse, man hands close with infinite
tenderness over small, .btrdclawllke wo
man hands. And I have read In the faces
a rapture that transcended flesh. The
hands craved and sought and ching be
cause of the love that animated the souls.
Of course. It Is mighty sweet for a girl
to have lovely eyes through which to send
her lovelooks, and beautiful hands to be
clasped In the grasp of a lover; but it Is
mighty silly to overestimate the charm of
either.
Oh, I know bow you argue with yourself

attention.

satisfaction. I was conceited aa you are.
In the class of "tbe-you-make-me-tlreds" I
had as conspicuous a place as you have.
And I honestly do not believe that the
false satisfaction derived from the po ses
sion of pretty hands half paya for being
counted by those who know you In that
disagreeable company.
She Was Unconvinced
A woman stood In front Of a department
store show window, apparently glancing
over the display, but looking at nothing In
particular. Another woman stopped by her
side and occupied herself In the same way.
The flrat woman said something In an
undertone and added:
"But I always raise mine with salera
tus." "Well, what of It?" came from the lips
of the other woman a bit defiantly.
"Did you address me, madam?" the first
woman asked, facing the ore beside her.
"I did not," replied the other. "I haven't
the pleasure of your acquaintance, but I
overheard .you say that you always raised
yours with saleratus.v
"I beg your pardon," was the rejoinder.
"I bad not aald anything, but you accosted
me rather sharply with 'Well, what of It?'
I will admit that I had been thinking of a
conversation I had just had with a friend
In which I told her how I made biscuits."
"You are certainly mistaken," Insisted
the other, "about my having made any
Impertinent remark to a stranger concern
ing her way of making biscuits, but I
will acknowledge that at the moment of
your speaking of raising 'em with salera
lus I was thinking what I should say to
my husband's mother If she should criticise
me for buying an unnecessary piece of cut

NEW YORK, April 18. The woman who
must count carefully every penny In her
dress allowance has no right to complain
of the present fashions. There may be
objections to the scant skirt, short Jackets,
short wahH. lines and short sleeves of the
moment's modes, but never has there been
a time ' when the costumes of twelve
months back could be renovated and made
up to date with so little serious difficulty.
A full-gored skirt, for Instance, can easily
be made narrower at each seam, while a
pleated skirt need often only have its
pleats stitched down to within a few Inches
of the ankles or else the entire distance,
according to the model to be carried out.
Often a laat year's skirt has sufficient
fullness to make It possible to completely
recut the material and with very little
effort produce one of the very newest of
the season's popular straight skirts. The
effect of a high waistline fr a tailor skirt
can b obtained by attaching to the band
a two-Inch stitched belt of Its own ma
terial.
To renovate and make up to date a
1910 Jacket of cloth, silk or linen Is a
mm
J
worth while to attempt unless tbe ma
terial Is Jn perfect condition, and the skirt
is also possible of being xecut to the new
lines. Frequently, however, in the case of
a silk Jacket or tbe coat of a plain white
linen suit It Is worth while to make over
the coat, and to buy or have made a new
skirt, or shirtwaist dress to wear with It.
cton coats this year are all aomewbat
elaborate, ornamented with fancy braid, ar
on tbe linen coats, crocbet lace. Sleeves
are generally short on a narrow mandarin
pattern, sometimes with deep cuffs. Braid
or crochet buttons also play an Important
part In the trimming of short Jackets.
As for the remaking, it is necessary to
work with a good model in turning the
coats of a former season into one of this
season's short models.
The illustration presents a very attrac
tive street frock of black and whit striped
linen. This costume shows one of the new
peplum waists. They have the appearance
of a Jacket, but, ae a rule, are worn with
a gulmpe of lace or tucking. The skirt is
the ever popular circular model, cut after
the new straight lines of the season.
A novel feature noticeable upon a num
ber of the latest French Importations is
a collar of lace, lingerie or, perhaps,
braid trimming the back of a waist, and
this with absolutely no reference to the
trimming upon the front of the gown. For
foulard and linen frocks this sailor collar
makes an extremely pretty finish. The
front of the dress may have a deep
V-shaped yoke with a surplice' effect, or
It may be fashioned In any other mode of
the moment. The back of tbe gown is
then left plain, and this collar, sometimes
quite narrow and square, again falling
almost to the belt and rounded at the
edge, is put on stitched at one aids and
hooked across to the left shoulder after
the gown ha been fastened down the back.
Any piece of embroidery can be used for
thla collar without regard to the lace er
embroldVry trimming on the rest of the
frock. The fashion la a curious yet a
strangely pretty one for a hot weather
frock.
r
The "Con's". Office
delightfully simple task this summer. If
It Is a plain semi-fitted three-quarter
length coat it will probably require no
further alteration than to be cut off some
four to eight Inches. The coat of the sea
son reaches scarcely to the hips, and while
this I a moat becoming length, there are
a sufficient quantity of coat which fall
half way to the knees to make this length
permissible.
Even a coat of two years ago with a
fitted back or added skirt piece at the
waist can be made up to date this year by
converting the model Into a fashionable
Eton Jacket. Tbia, of course. Is not
