As thti Year Marches
Whin tho north wind does not blow
In February, It will surely como In
March.
When March Is llko April, April will
bo llko March.
If March comes In llko a lamb, It coei
out llko a Hon ; It If comes In like a lion,
It goes out like a lamb.
March winds nnd April showers
Bring forth May flowers.
February makes va bridge; March
breaks It.
Tho first threo dnys of March aro
unlucky dnvs das on which no former
would sow his seed. .
A damp March gives sorrow to farm
ers. When tho cat lies In tho sun In JTcb
ruary, she will creep behind tho stove
In March.
It Is the common belief thnt tho month
of February should hao a course of
snow, rain and sleet In order that all
tho powers of humidity may bo ex
hausted beforo tho commencement of
March, when nn oppostto kind of weuther
Is looked for.

Adventuree With a Purse
rpODAY is barjaln day in tho Adyen
-1- turcs. I shall tell you of nothing
but real, bona fido tionest-to-goodness
bargnln To begin with, ihero is tho
Canton crepo ilrcsi, Perhaps you know
thnt Canton crepe, which reminds one
of n crepo' do chine, only it is rougher
in texture, is a very popular material
this year. Well, then, this dress I
speak of, mado of Canton crepo, is elm
ply fashioned, with short sleeves, round
neck and fastens down tho back. It
would moko a very nlco little drcsi to
slip on of an afternoon. Its prleo ii
$20, and it comes in virtually nil the
wanted colors and sizes.
The second bargain is aNo n dress.
It is mado of cool light gray crepo do
chine. This llttlo frock is long-wnlsted
ana has n sash of the material which
, "? nt tho side nnd is cdgcdvwith
rich -looking gray fringe. Tho' front of
the blouso is trimmed with covered
buttons, nnd has a lovely llttlo cream
colored collnr. When I asked tho
shopkeeper the price I understood him
nt first to say $10.50, and I mentnlly
decided that that was about n fair
price. To my amazement, however, I
learned I had misunderstood him, and
that tho prlco is only $20.00. Here Is
a bargain If there ever was one!
Sty third bargain also has to do with
dresses, only this time I wiito of dress
materials. One of our nulto nicest shopi
Is hnving n perfectly fascinating sale of
foulards. The patterns are as springy
and pretty as you can find. They como
in brown nnd white, black nnd white
nnd blue and white. Among them I
saw ono In black with white dots to
my mind ono of tho most effective pat
terns, after all. This foulard is 40
inches wide, nnd Its price is $1.03 for
whatever design you choose. Think of

Something Worth Your Time
Wouldn't you like lo use up some of
those little sparo moments that corn
very now and then In making a rrualnt
bedspreads? if you only know how It
would ndd to the attractive appeornnca
of tho room I And. even though It takes
tlmo, the work Is so simple and sort of
goes along fn a way that In fascinating.
They aro made, theso bedspreads, of n
soft-colored unbleached muslin, with n
design of white French knots that
spreads Itself all over them. The pat
tern could ho drawn In pencil on the
muslin making it of squares, diamonds
or dries. Heavy thread Is used for the
knots, nnd they aro made with ono of
the special needles that can bo bought
nuowadays, which makes the process a
wonderfully easy ono. Just wrapping
tho cotton around onco, and giving the
needlo a simple twist forms a plump
little ball. It Is not hard to Imagine
what an effectlvo design a number of
these makes.
