A man puet middle age deaeinled Irom an Incoming train In a narrow pus saga leading to a large depot. He had occu pied a reHr car, and more than 10.i pef ona were In front of him when he reached the pas sage. Only two persona could walk abreast, and the high railing on one aide and the train on the other made it necessary to kee p to the narrow exit. The man had Im portant eng tit menu awa King him. He was well bred, a (rentleman and considered the little eourtesles of life. Tet without vio I it H r, lating one of these he reached the depot and the trolley car first of all those hun dred persons. He watched his chances and availed himself of them. A woman In the line at his left dropped her parcel and stooped to recover it. He alipped in front of her without delaying any on In either line of march. A man on the right paused to shift his baggage from the right hand to the left, and this made another opening. Still another held up the whole procession to question a train otflclal leaning from a car window, but Instead of stopping with the throng our traveler pushed ahead and found a clear apace, which aoon en abled him to reach the trolley car two or three moments In advance of the first man who had descended from the train. He had moved rapidly, quietly, decently and without once Inconvenienc ing a fellow traveler. No doubt scores of passengers 'from the rear cars explained their tardy .ar rival home, and at places of business, aa due to the procession In front of them. This same man had begun life In the rear car. He had been a poor child on a western prairie, without Influence, and with meager opportunities for education. Tet, by this inborn trait, this determi nation to watch hla opportunities and push ahead, he obtained an education and a desirable position In life before middle age obtained It through his own efforts. Beveral of his old comrades are living In the same meager environment of early youth, believing they were hindered by fate from attaining aucceas. They regard the good fortune of their old acquaintance aa a stroke- of luck. "He waa born to be tucky," they will tetl you. "Things naturally Went hla way.- -.-. r ' But Wiey went his way merely because he watched his chance and slipped ahead when the opening came, These chances come to every one of us along the highways of life.

Inspiration haa been drawn from many aources, but the Ideas thus borrowed have been modernised very considerably to adapt them to present day uses. One of tho most attractive styles Is a compromise between tho long waist or Moyen age effects and the 1830 modes. The sides are drawn in to the normal waistline to suggest the tightened corset and the resultant delineation of the figure silhouette. The front, on the contrary, maintains the stKaight line which haa been In vogue tor almost (wo decades and from which women are loath to part desDlte the effort of French corsetierea i and outuriers to so Induce them. j The material of this model Is very, Relaxation After Weary Day a Secret of Beauty Ily UNA CAVAMEItl.

Pauuln haa contributed an imereauna coat of thla type. Uk many of the French model gowns, it la made of cot ton velveteen, and it la brown In color. The collar and cuffs are of skunk, while on the sleeves and the draw-In belt there are touches of embroidery dona In a yellow Bilk. Thla silk is matched In the lining, which Is of gold shade. Even the fur coata have changed their lines this fall. They, too, are Inclined to reveal the curve of waist and hip and to achieve distinction In collar and cuff accessories.

It is something of a relief to find a minimum of contrasting fur on thla coat Indeed,, it la In. the collar only that a great band of blue fox la employed. This blue fox band really has a bluish cast and seems, therefore, to deserve its de scriptive appellation. Generally speaking, the so-called blue fox Is a cinnamon brown, but the dis crepancy between title and color Is ex plained by the fact that the wlntor coal of this particular memoer of the fox family Is really bluish, as seen In the open of the northern climes.
