THE GIRLS WHO WIN OUT.
A girl who looks on while her
friend, who is known as “easy,” is
apparently having a glorious time,
wonders whether good breeding is not
old-fashioned. But it is not the girl
who cares little how she talks, where
she goes unchaperoneu or how free
and easy she permits her men friends
to be, who wins out in the end.
How often does the quiet little
mouse of a girl, whom the other girls
call a prude or stick, take the catch
of the season and get invitations
that her easier friends want.
It is hard in this age to have too
high a standard of self-respect. Per
mitted liberties are so much greater
than a generation ago that one needs
watchfulness not to overstep the line
into librty.
A girl need not be a prude because !
she does not believe i a familiarities
of speech or touch. When once she
has made her position and standards
clear she can have just as good a
time and far more respect than
friend who is “easy.”
Because a girl is particular it does
not follow she must be slow. Given
a sense of fun, readiness to be amus
ed by everything that comes along,
a tongue that doesn’t backbite and
the spirit of the true sport who plays
fair and does not growl, and a nice
girl need hever lack attention be
cause she does not believe in always
sitting in corners and frowns upon
dubious jokes.
Summer is the danger line of the
I “easy” girl. Then it is that she is

attributed to lack of breeding -and
worse. No matter how you may envy
the girls you see on the beach or in
the ocean surrounded by me n and
hoys—who do not hesitate to treat
her familiarly—do not seek attention
at the cost of your refinement.
It is better to be a well-bred girl
than a belle, though there is no neces
sity for the distinction if a girl but
realizes it.
DAINTY LITTLE VANITY BAGS.
Vanity bags for dancing parties are
attractive if made of Dresden ribbon
in colors corresponding with the
gown. small circular mirror *felued
to the base of the bag, which is made
of cardboard, is held in place by a
narrow edge of shirred ribbon. The
reserve side of the cardboard is rib
bon-covered and scented with some
idaiinty sachet. The bag holds the
powder and puff ball, the handker
chief, a few pins, etc. Narrow rib
bon loops attach- it to the arm.
“FISH TAIL” TRAINS ON
NEW EVENING GOWNS.
The latest evening gowns have ar
rived, says an exchange, and have
features which are rather startling
to the uninitiated. They are made
with the new "fish tail” train, which
is nothing more tha n an oblong of
satin which trails on the floor quite
independent of the rest of the gown.
Evening gowns are being used for af
ternoon occasions whe n not too de
collete, and the odd “fish-tail" train
Is looped up, In imitation of the Ja
panese obi, and merely looks like a
sash, the upper ends being attached j
to the bodice In the region of the
shoulder blades. Beads, small and
i usually in the tone of the gown, are
much in evidence, and are very ef
fective. Fringes of crystal and silk
are being used much and nearly all
|of the gowns have a sash or touch
of black. A’new material which is
; unusually beautiful is the chiffon
i with embossed velvet flowers rn
Dresden shades. The flowers are ex
i quisitely tinted and have a frosted
appearance. Artificial flowers, espe
( ciallv the small pink roses, are being
, used extensively and when, with dis
cretion, give a charming effect. One
of the most costly and gorgeous ma
terials for evening gowns It t the sil
! ver and gold moire tissue. The latter
issued over some color and frequent

cately colored beads. Green is to be
one of the popular colors of the win
ter. having held Its popularity through
the summer. The long earrings are
j more exaggerated In length and de
sign than ever, stnrt will agai n be

M WORD TO THE
BUSINESS WOMAN.
Almost every woman who works is
not doing the work she would like
to do nor the work for which she is
fitted by right of temperament and
talent. She labors not at a chosen
profession, but at the task which
seemed expedient, at the time she
entered the industrial arena. Often
because her work is not absolutely
congenial she grumbles at her lot and
goes rebelling against a fate jvhich
keeps her tied down with not a
chance to change.
It is this very grumbling, by the
failure to make their work likable,
that many women add to the weight
of their daily labor. If they would
only regard their work l n the right
light they could get a great amount
of good out of doing the thing they
do not like to do and by doing it
well. Such self-discipline Is good for
every woman, and If the girl who
grumbles will change her point, of
view and look upon her dally wort;
as the means by which she will im
prove her character and broaden her
outlook on life, she will derive a
great deal of benefit from the dread
ed daily task. And, incidentally, the

LADY NAYLOR-LEYLAND
That love has captured Lord Kitch
ener is the belief of woclety. Ills at
tentions to the fascinating Lady Nay
lor-Leyland formerly Jennie Chamber
lain, of Cleveland, Ohio, have brought
out a rurnor of bin secret engagement.
No confirmation of the rumor could be
obtained today however. Lord Kitchener

solitary Intimate friend. He lives en
tirely alone save for a nephew In the
navy who sometimes visits him. Should
his engagement be announced It will be
a great surprise to London society.
deadly routine will no longer seem
a drudgery.
In our every day work we learn
things that no amount of ease and
comfort could teach us. We learn
the value of accuracy and action, the
power of cheerfulness and self-denial,
and greater tha n all the.se things Is
the lesson learned In self-control and
self-reliance. All along the line we
learn things which help to make up
stolidity of character and which make
superficial pleasures seem the silly
and useless things they really are.

her liking, has untold opportunities
of developing herself along the lines
that really count. In lifo. Her idle
sister, whom she may envy because
of her apparent chance to cultivate
culture, hus little opportunity of de
veloping self-reliance or self-control.
And it. Is. after all, those qualities
which are most to he desired In wo
man.
We often henr of the dlgnily of la
bor, but very few of us realize the
large amount of dignity and culture
there Is in our dally toll. This is

llie brains without Ihe hard work are
of iitllo avail. Success is perspira
tion, not inspiration, and the woman
who works at hor dally taHk, determ

BRIDGE LOSING HOLD.
Anent bridge, f-ady Mary Manwar
lng writing from London to the Hous
ton Rost says:
Bridge Is losing Its hold lately. Re
cently an Inquest was held on a
Ktrettttittin lady who committed sui
cide after losing some rubbers at
btldge. It was stated that sue wuh,
as a rule, a first-rate player, but that
on tho evening of her death she ptayed
very badly und lost games which sin
should have won easllj?.
Tills tragedy is another example ot
the unsuitability of card games to the
feminine temperament. Many women
are admirable bridge players, as far
as mere skill and Knowledge are con
cerned, but they are nearly ail bad
losers. They are too emotional and
too easily upset by ttie outrageous
tricks that Fortune so often plays.
This Is generally a reason why bridge
has lost ItH popularity and Is so rapid
ly falling out of fashion. When the
game was at the height of Its vogue
Its supporters were mainly women.
“Mixed" card clubs, 1. e., clubs where
men and women could meet for bridge,
sprang up all over London.
But the ladles could not stand the
strain. The game got on their nerves
and the clubs being pleasant for so
cial gatherings degenerated Into nag
ging arid hysterical Institutions.
There were no suicides, but there
were minor tragedies ln abundance.
Husbaqds complained that their wives
returned home from their bridge clubs
in a state of nervous .tension that
made conversation Impossible. The
nagging tliat was merely exasperating
at the card table became utterly In •
tolerable when transferred to the
home.
In a number of cases the domestic
peace was irretrievably shattered, but
the more usual ending was reslgna
tlon from the club which caused all
the mischief. The last couple of years
have seen the closing of half a dozen
of the principal mixed card clubs ln
London, and bridge as a social relax
ation Is apparently doomed.

there was a room set especially apart
by the hostess for bridge, but It failed
to attract a single player.
The reign of bridge Is over.
SLEEVE LENGTHS.
Sleeves have reached that happy
length In which the elbow Is univer
sally concealed and the arm below re
vealed. 'lbis Is an Ideal length and
permits also a pretty display of brace
lets or bands, all attractive, .'specially
around a dinner table. And yet, while
the average woman will wear short
sleeves and none are prettier—some
one will wear the long, skin-tight
sleeves seen In a number of the new
models for fall. They are probably for
house wear and the use of gloves with
them is not a matter for considera
tion. And It. Is further reported that
old-time dolman-sleeve effects are
coming In.
HOW, INDEED.
"Father has positively refused to
send us any more money,” said the
countess sadly.
“He has, has he?” retored the
count. “How does he expect you’re
going to eat thoi?”
BETTER THAN STOVAINE.
"How do you extract women’s teeth
without their screaming? You don’t
give gas.’
"But my office Is opposite a depart
ment store's millinery display. When
the women get absorbed in looking at
the htttH they're oblivious to pain.”—
