Last year, however, it was not con sidered conect to bpeak of this sort ot garment. Thcte "were, of course, such garments worn, but thej were not in high fashion. 'Phis year the term "sports clothes" is ngain with us nnd is a definition of plain clothes, in bright colors, or different combinations from those usually woin. Wc have all become educated to the fact that sports clotlus do not mean those which are worn for golf, or even for tennis, but for a dressier tjpe of clothing when a woman just wants to look well and at iier best.

His remarks were cxlremcly dis tasteful, more like those that might come from a flippant and rather disre pectful youth than those befitting a more or less elderly gentleman, to whom carpet slippers and growd-up sons nnd daughters ought to be more or less be coming. Now there arc two ways to get rid of these obnoxious attentions. First, ab solutely ignore them. That is, to con trive some sort of an unstudied way to get on a different car each morning and thus cut off nny opportunity for conver sation. The second way is to do a little missionary work for nil the young Indies to come nnd lend the gentleman gently but firmly back into the fifties, where he belongs. To lead a man back into the safe dig nity and good naturalness of his fifties a girl has only to do one thing. Assume the daughterly attitude. T'U the gen tleman about the boy she is expecting homo from France. If she has none, let her manufacture a few for the occasion. Fill him up with the things of youth until ho is sick nnd tired hearing nbout them and feels entirely left out in the cold. If girls would only realize how much more valuable to them this atti tude is than all of the hatpin heroics in the world put together the elderly flirt could be cheerfully frozen out of ex istence.
