10 EVJfiKItfG T,MiKB-PmUDMLPHU, FBiDAY. JUtfM 18, 1915 WOMAN "AND THE HOME-NEW SUMMERFASHI 0 XS AND IDEAS-PRIZE SUGGESTIONS A SMART GIRL'S DIARY AN OLD PROBLEM By Ellen Adair What a Man Likes Best in a Woman If A recent elopement case, where a toy, married lady took the bit between her teoth and bolted with the chauffeur that gentleman expressed hl opinion later to the effect that what he really liked beet bout her Was her "free way of spend ing money." (Her own money, not his, please note.) Though this was scarcely flattering to the lady, who had counted the World well lost for him, or to the depths of his affection concerning her, It ecrned a nood ralson-d'etre in his eyes for the little "affaire." Certainly the gentleman at the steering; wheel managed to steer himself Into a nood thins;, al though he steered the coy lady out of homo and husband and fortune nnd Into a general mlxup, which hasn't been righted yet and which probably never wilt But doubtless the chauffeur will come right side Up, anyhow. That sort of person generally does. What doea a man really like In a woman? A million different qualities and oddities, I should Imagine. It depends on the man, of course. One male crcaturo will adore the fluffy-hoaded, scatter brained doll type of little maiden, and conceive a hearty aversion for tho choice of his best man friend, which may Ho In the direction of the lady with the plnco nex and the "mind of her own." Tho opinion of an authority on tho sub ject Is amusing. "What a man really likes best In a woman," she declares cheerfully, "Is her deceit. lie may not know It himself, but It Is so. A woman takes and hblds a man by' deceit. Sho Carmines her cheeks and whitewashes her character, she powdorn her nose and her veracity, sho manicures her nnlla and her Intentions. She Is, In a word, a master of craft and a mistress of man." I was re-reading that delightful tolo of Jane Austen's, "Prldo and Prejudice," tho other day, whero tho heroine Informs her husband-to-be that what ho really likes best about her Is her Impertinence. IIo remonstrates, of course, but her remark la really Illuminating, for the quality she ascribes to herself Is one of her charms. Yet, ft certain measure of Impertinence can prove very alluring where suscep tible mankind Is concerned. Servility In a women certainly never won tho day. Therefore, l Is only natural that on occasion Its opposite, Impertinence, might bo a deadly weapon for male annihila tion. I have known lots of cases myself where Impertinence well-bred Impertin ence, with brains at back of It please understand ted a man direct to the nltnrl "Woman Is tho great Illusion," an nounced a mournful little husband re cently. "What a man likes best 111 her Is the greatest Illusion of all' for he finds she hasn't got It at all, and alt the time he has been chasing a mlrago In tho desert of her disposition!" Poor, misguided little fellow! I really sympathlzo with him. But he has one consolation, and that Is that tils wife evidently keeps him guessing. The chas ing of mirages Is always exciting, If at times somewhat disillusioning. And, like the Immortal Mr. Jtlcawber, he must Just keep hoping that something will turn up. There are men, of course, who really dislike tho unexpected, and who seek the balm of a soporific soul who will lull them Into a state of coma, and whowlll provo a helpmeet toward dulness and general mental stagnation. I havo met many wives of this particular brand, and although I could not say with truthful ness that to outward appearances they filled their husband with any wild en thusiasm, at tho same tlmo their cow llko placidity was what their husbands liked best about them. Yes, It certainly Is a strango world. And what a man really likes best In a woman rests on the lap of tho gods no mere woman Is sufficiently brainy to dis cover I Prize Suggestions A prle of l Ims been awarded . Mrs. F. S.

He flew straight to tho garden and he was much gratified to no tice that the minute he appeared at the edge of the garden, Tommy Sparrow, who haij evidently been digging worms, stop ped his work and quickly Hew away. As a matter of fact, Tommy simply flow away because he disliked Bluey Blackbird and wanted to avoid him. But. of course, Bluey didn't know that. Ho thought that Tommy flew away so quick ly because he was afraid of Bluey, and that flattered Bluey so that his Bood humor was at once restored and he began to feel better. "Now I understand about those wild birds," he explained to himself. "They are afraid of blackbirds why shouldn't they boT but they are fierce and danger ous to all other birds. I Just wish I could take Bome of these troublesome garden birds, tha robins and the apar- irmV',j6PsMil a I if xj IIPl "you'll thank ma or Jnomlna you tho row, over to the park. They would be frightened and In danger. Then II. all by myself, could fly and rescue them. I'm aure I would be In no danger, as Dusky assured mo the ducks like black birds. Oh. dear, but that would be ftml How frUhtened they would be! How tnty would look up to mXer reaoutng thm-I wouldniti do ltJSp ni Ither. I would Jet theraieP food fright, so thay would respect my Inter ference the; more." The? more Bluey thought about scaring BUly Rqbln and Tommy Sparrow, the mora determined he became to carry out hlB plan. "Serve thm right to get a go4 scare," he muttered. "Make them Mapeet me the more!" For, yflu see, like many people as wll as creature. Bluey pretended to be perfectly indifferent to what utters thought, while really he cared a good deal He was arrogant and siab and aros, but he wujite-5 Ins nslKhbora to Uke and respect him as they did Billy BoWn, who wm ajwaya ktod and helpful.

Don't think that I don't appreciate your kindness" he said.- when he saw that Bluey was angrily' huffing himself up. "Ask me some other time and I'll be glad to go with you." Bluey flew away without a word. But to himself he muttered "I'll get him there yet and I'll frlghen him good Juat wait!" Copyright Clara Ingram Judton.

"Wo pay a dollar a month to obtain the wireless bulletins oh tho war from tho Havas Agency, which are wired to us dally from tho coast," writes a British explorer now at Bangui, French West Africa. "Thoro aro two telegraph routes, so that when tho elephants and giraffes havo car ried off the wires of one, or upset the standards, wo hear tho nowa over 'ho other until It has been repaired. Occa sionally, but rarely, both aro down at onco." CMJTII suits are slowly but surely go ing out, as the really warm days begin their stay. Owing to tho extremes of cli mate, the serge and gabardlno suit stayed In stylo longer than usual, according to one suit manufacturer. The next Importa tion on fashion's program Is tho Bilk suit. These are widely popular, In navy blue, tans, and changeable effects. Taffetas Is used on many of these suits, with silk gabardine and poplins for the Individual selection, Bright colored corduroys are seen on sports occasions, but their vogue Is rapidly decreasing, t Summer fura nre n not uncommon trim ming on tho more cxctuslvo silk models, whlto or rose fox being tho favorites. Tho unlquo arrangement of a sash gives a touch of trimming to the suit shown today. It is inado of tan silk gabardine, with a sash of navy bluo pussy willow taffetas. This It brought around tho waist from tho front, tying In a Icoag knot at tho knees. Tho skirt Is a, straight gathered atylo, cut very short, and un trimmed. The little jacket Is simple cutaway In front, showing tho girdle, with more of tho Jiavy taffolas on collars and cuffs. Tho cuffs, by tho way, are made In the' very nevfest flaring style, Just enough to to give S touch of novelty. Many of the Imported models are extremely flaring, (a the point of resembling the old-fashioned boll sleovo, Tho buttons used at tho front and en the alcoves iro military, made of gua. metal, to harmonize with the tan silk. Kovelty Is also soon ln tho black and whlto shoes, ivhtch would, perhaps, not bo noticeable, Unless I pointed It out The buttonholes arc sot vory widely apart, on uppers of whlto kid, hand-embroidered In, black. The tailored hat worn with this costumo Is nindo of suede. AROUND THE BARGAIN COUNTERS Newest Findings in Hats Tim belated summer hat Is usually a trying problem, and the choice of straws Is limited this summer.

Many light-tinted felts aro seen, and hatter's plush ln pas tel Bhades Is very fashionable. With tho tailored costume, turbans aro bUH popular, and all whlto styles aro most attractive. A vory protty oll-whlto turban "was seen ln a certain chop. It was made brlmlcss, setting right down on tho head at nn angle. It is the anglo, by tho way, which makes theso hats possible. Tho crown was mado of vhlto satin, surrounded by blades of whlto wheat. Tho price was 4. Another all-whlto hat was mado ln a largo sailor shape of Milan straw. The bandonu around the crown was white satin, with email opalescent balls of beaded trimming placed hero and thero around tho crown. Tho price was 16. One of the prettiest little tailored hats seen this season was mado of black straw, with a deep turncd-up brim of whlto ltld. There was no other trimming but a hugo pompom of black and white, mallne, placed at nn anglo on tho back of tho crown. The pilco was $5.
