-Willi the cnlcudar clicking
off th) shopping days be
fore Cbristmas'', at an alarming
rate, I advise jdu H keep on
jour toes from now till it's time
to hang up your stockings. And
if you think calendars don't click
you must admit that they have,
a disturbing way of telling the
truth when you've put off ajluty
a littl-3 tco Ions.
HairRaisingn
TRULY, I was scared when the
square poster on tho wall
told nic tho date and I bad no
present on the way to Bud in
Honolulu! Before I recovered my
balanco I had rushed into the
Arcade entrance on Douglas
street, and finding myself in the
Men's Hat department bought a
cap of Alaskan Seal, with long
rhbs to'protect the cars. I was
hurrying back to the postoffice,
to get my present on its way
and passing through the book
department my eye fell upon a
' picture that threw me into
Hysterics 1
IT was a magazine picture of
an Hawaiian maiden in a colli-
scheme of gold and brown
and among the things she didn't
have on was a Mack sealskin
cap! I suppose I could have re
turned the cap and been credited
on my account but the first
way out of It I could think of
was to mail the cap to Bud's pal
in Canada. And I'm glad I did.
Sphinx
AFTER all my excitement the
problem of Bud's Christmas
present was as far from solution
as ever. I don't know how it
ever would have been solved but
for the kindly assistance of one
of the saleswomen at the jewelry
counter She found a most un
usual Masonic emblem , among
the novelties in solid gold and
if Bud doesn't write and say he's
tickled to death I won't write
to him again for a month!
Diplomacy!
FASHION ha? tact. Have you
noticed how short "she's mail
ing the sleeves lately on the aft
ernoon dresses and some of the
smart tailored suits? It's because
the new long gloves c1' so
charming. And speaking of
gloves, what could make a more
acceptable Christmas gift? You
need not. be afraid your friends
may le already supplied, for
there pre so many styles tor so
many ciffcrent occasions, it
would take quite a collection to
be really called complete.
Method!
HPhe whole family-agreed some
time ago that one of us must
give dad a new-carving set. We
feel sure he will do better Work
'on the Christmas goose. I found
a three-piece set with stag han
dles and made of the finest steel.
Dad knows good steel when he
sees it! He'll be so fussy about
it he'll tmly let us get it out on
big occasions, although, just be
cause jt is so good, it will stand
daily use without losing a bit
of its ompcr.
M Left Handed! I
SUCH consideration in choo3-.
ing that Pyrex glass casse
role for mother! It has a deco
rated lid of glass for use in the
oven and again in serving. A
nickel plated frame f ornate de
sign makes it a worth -while ad
dition to any table service, and
the best thing about it is they
slipped in one of those handy lit
tle leaflets of recipes for casse
i role cookery.

YOU'LL the mark every
x time it you give those cute
little pieces I saw at the neck
wear counter. There are ribbon
chokers in all colors, fancy lace
collars and vestees, collar pro
tectorsand there's a thought
they fit irside your furs and pro
tect the delicate silMund satin
linings from the equally delicate
cold cream and rice powder.
Handy little pieces to brighten
up everyday or dress frocks'are
considerata gifts your frlendj
will appreciate.

A ND then I went and bought
a an leather traveling case.
Tan is the men's color, ymi
know. It had the splffiest fittings
of military, brushes, comb, Joth
brush, tooth brush bolder and
the like. It means one of my big
gest problems satisfactorily set
tled, for men do love to be, proud
of their trav-p'ing accessories
