Speaking of taffeta, the newest thing
out is the rough matelusse weave. It
is about as smart 8 looking material
as one can possibly select for a “first™

FLOWER GIRL
By CHERIE NICHOLAS
This dainty little frock is an un
usually pretty style for the flower girl
who expects to play an important role
in a spring wedding. It can easily be
made at home at little expense of or-
gandie, silk mousseline, chiffon or flat
crepe. The arrangement of the pleat.
ing Is very effective and quite along
entirely new lines. In Paris every:
thing that can be finely knife pleated
is pleated, in the styling of fashions
for grown-ups as well as for children.
Vivid Crepes :
Crepes are the favorite evening fab
rie of the moment. Splashing the
palette »f black, brown, red and white,
which hae been seen all winter, are
pew and vivid tones such as cyclamen
manve, eyclamen pink, capary yellow
and waler green.

veal perfectly waved side hair and
leave no room for any chignon in the
small erown or back.
“Double-up” is the very newest coif-
fure being featured by the sinartest
hairdressers. [It is the continuation of
the popular brushed away-from-the
forehead style. The hair is whisked
directly back into a swirl and finds
its way back again around the ears,
or only one of them, terminating there
in any one of the many curl fashions
“Double up” really gets its name
from the fact that it is as smart for

for the sportswoman.
Cottons and Linens to

activities, point to another big sum-

ent both cottons and linens that are

The natural Mne-color suits worn
with darker blouses are a smart ex-

Other details that are registering
are the narrower daytime skirts and

Necklines are still showing high
tendencies, but an open, square cut is
used In a couple of daytime dresses

How the System Works.
Many Interesting stories are told
fllustrating how this mysterious sys
tem works, One concerns a stranger
who hailed a taxi in Calle La Merced
and asked the chauffeur to drive him
to “Baquijano veinte cinco.” The
driver did not bat an eye, but drove
like Jehu up Jesus Nazareno, skidded
on two wheels into Giron Carabaya,
raced around Plaza San Martin, and
whirled up through Boza, landing his
shaken passenger at the address give
en—on the same street, but simply
in the next block from where he
started!
The name Mercaderas
tells us of
ftreet of Lima and Escribanos or
sheltered under the portals on the
west side of the Plaza. Calle Mantas
proclaims the square where the ladies
of Peru's golden past “spent their hus
bands’ substance in riotous purchase
of shawls, homespuns, Indian textiles,
and lingerie.”
The history of Lima's past is writ
ten In her streets, In names that the
municipality long has wanted to wipe
out In favor of through desighations
and numbered blocks. But the people
of the city cling to their streets with
a devotion that will not permit con
venlence to triumph over romantic
tics with the past,
In wandering about the old city, one
comes upon many an architectural rel.
fe of the days of the viceroys; but,
umgng all of these, none is more im:
pressive than the monastery of San
Francisco, There one may be ushered
into a porcelain garden where the
artistie tiles of the cloister compete
with the living flowers that bloom in
the earth they Inclose,
No one has described more beaut)
fully the effect of this porcelain gar
den than Mr. F. P. Farrar, of “The
West Coast Leader.” “Here,” he says,
“is a porcelain garden, a ceramic bor
der of springtime, where the blues of
delphinium and lupine, the yellow of
cytisus and the gold of colchicum,
the creamy white of arabls and the
mauves of aubrietia, blend into the
fresh foliage of the overhanging trees
and the azure of the new-washed
skies."
The charm of the story of the origin
of this porcelain garden almost equals
the beauty of the ceramic triumph it-
self, On a November morning In
1619 a vast crowd had gathered in
the Plaza de Armas, for there was
to be a public hanging, and these
events were Roman holidays for the |
populace,
The publlie crier had announced:
“The Warrantable and loyal Audien-
cia of this City of the Kings has con- |
demned to suffer a shameful death |
on the gallows Alonso Godinez, native |
of Guadalajara, in Spain, for the mur- |
der of Marta Villoslada without fear
of judgment human or divine, Let him
who did so pay the penalty! This
sentence is to be read in the presence |
of all lest they meet a like end! Let
justice be done!"
Came a Reprieve.
The condemned man had taken his
stand beneath the noose and the hang-
man was nervously adjusting the fatal
knot. Suddenly a monk pushed his way
through the throng, climbed the gul-
lows platform, and handed a parch
