nine charms l the
facility to fit Olio's
self to tho peculiar
circumstance which
surround us, whether
they bo pleasing or
not. This Is by no
means as easy ns It
sounds Take, for
Instance, the case of
tearful llttlo newljwed who came to
see an elderly friend of mlno u short
While ago "Jim doesn't love mo any
more," sho sobbed "I don't know what
I'll do"
My friend had known Jim nit her life,
and sho knew that a moro devoted hus
band never breathed, but she didn't laugh
At tho llttlo bride. Bho asked what tho
trouble was "Woll,"
confessed tho tear

an deenlv asIf It really existed.
I am sorcy for tho woman whose life
Is spent rolling against circumstance. It
reminds me of the men who go fishing
without bnlt, or those whose nets have
huge boles In the bottom. For tho
struggle against our surroundings Is as
fruitless ns the labors of the poor fellow
In the Aeneld Who was nlwn)a trying to
empty the sea with a sieve. j
Changes of any kind are more or less
trying, because of tho humerous compll
cation which they bear In their train.
The first lo-pntn nlow of the honeymoon
cannot possibly last,
even though nil lovers
will deny my statement
vigorously. Each one
Imagines himself tho
exception, his romnnco
Is going to last n life
time But when tho
first J ear has rollotl by
nnd Jim begins to feel
thnt bo should put moro
time In his work nnd
his llttlo wlfo stnys at
homo and Imagines her
self n o g I o o t o d, tho
trouble nnd heartbreak
begins This Is tho time
when the wl-a girl teaches herself tho hard
lesson of adnptablllt) It means pntlcncc
nnd trust and firm conviction, nnd above
nil, pcrslstuicc Tho latter, by the wny,
Is a quality rarely found In women that
Is, vvhon devoted to tho worthy end of
improving themselves. If the object hap
pened to bo n now lint, the story Is qulto
different.
I know one man who lost a double
salaried poittlon because his wife re
fused to adapt herself to the temporarj
Inconveniences of moving to nnothir clt
Tills Is not exaggeration, If you will only
looK around jou, the number of women

that poor Jim couldn't bo expected to who nro doing tho snmo Is astonishing.
contlnuo his entertaining quality through And all bcc-iuso they hnven't tho courngi
life. It was a real tragedy to the little to learn the lesson of adaptability!
THE "NEW FIGURE" MAKES ITS
BOW ON FALL EVENING GOWNS
TT OFTI3N hnppons
X that tho late summer
evening gowns aro
really sultnblo for early
fall dances. I know of
ono girl who purposely
allows the question of
her evening frocks to
remain unnnsworcd
until tho last moment
until she decides vvhero
sho Is going to pass tho
summer. Then, If sho
finds her hotel Is par
ticularly fashionable, or
there Is a great deal of
gaiety around the place,
she sonds homo or runs
up to town for a day
or oo, and selects tho
lata August fashions
shown in tho shops. It
Is a very vvIbo plan, for,
as I have already said
many of our best de
signers aro Bhowlng
their most striking nu
tumn Btjles early In
tho summer.
Ono of tho plainest
and most picturesque
models I have scon is
shown In todaj'o Illus
tration. It Is Just de
signed for Into summer
wear, for hotol dances
nnd muslcalcs. Tho
Infltlenco of tho Vic
torian period Is plainly
shown In tho basquo
waist and s o v e r e I y
draped lines of tho
bodice.
Tho top of tho waist
Is made of silk net, of
a glorious palo Ivory
shade, which contrasts
most becomingly with
tho shell-pink taffetas
of which tho dress Is
made. This net Is
draped over a founda
tion of silver-thread
embroidery, with short
transparent s 1 o o v o s,
edged with pink ribbon.
Tho pointed bodice
outlines the rather new
figure a slight ten
dency toward the wasp
waist being suggested.
The skirt la charmingly
draped, with a sash of
silk net encircling tho
waist line. This net Is
also used,nt the bottom
of tho hem In a de"
cldediy unique manner,
with a deml-petticoat
of Oliver embroidery.

Is Intended to servo an ncuto need In tho

Tho Soulhwark School, nt nth and Mif

nounced that tho girls' school In nil
probability would be rendv for occtipnn"y

Deen less rapid than was expected,
All of the now buildings will bo In tho
nature of a memorial to tho Into William

In splto lof the improvements, It is
feared that nt least 5,00u children will

tho taking of the Bastllo. i'ho Btreets
aro thronged with eager holiday makors,
but nh so different from those of previ
ous years I Thcro Is no dancing In the
streets, no merrymaking In tho great
squares for tho men, rich nnd poor,
nro all In the war.
This morning In tho Champs Eljscca,
closo to L'Aro do Trlomphc, I v niched nn
liilircstlng procession. To celebrate tho
occasion fittingly. It was decided to ro
movo tho remains of Houget do Lisle,
composer of tho Marseillaise, who died
about lk36. from their resting places out
side Paris, and they were, therefore, car
ried In state to tho Pantheon for burial!
Gendarmes lined tho streets, crowds sang
tho Marseillaise and excitement ran high.
A great motorcar dashed past suddenly,
and I recognized M. Polncare on his way
to meet tho funeral procession. Then
while wo vvoro still waiting, moro excite
ment was caused by two lmmenso mili
tary aeroplanes which circled directly
above our heads, making a noisoMIko
thunder The crowds craned their necks
nnd cheered vociferously. This so encour
aged tho flying men thnt they did some
wonderful feats for tho delectation of tho
mob, banking sharply and turning m tho
most marvelous manner. A Bmall boy
beside mo shouted as I hovo nover heard
a child shout before. "Rogardcz, re-
gardcz ccs braves garcons!" ho screamed
nt tho top of his voice. The wholo per
formance was most spectacular and the
cheers of tho crowd were as loud as tho
thunder of tho aeroplanes.

Then tho procession started with the
clatter of cavalry regiments. Company

restive horses, camo slowly past, their
helmets Bhtning In tho sun. On a great

AT THE AMERICAN HOSPITAL.
After the procession I made mv wo,.
to the American Ambulance Hospital at
Xeullly, where I was received by Dr J
William White, head of the Philadelphia
Unit; Doctor Hutchinson, Doctor Lee
and Doctor Billings No words un n
describe the wonderful work which is
being carried on In this hospital! There
are more than 600 beds, and the very
latest surgical devices and triumphs of
American skill are fully displayed
