Their neisthat they arc not in style. Indeed, how could they keep in style, vita the styles change every few wnths? If long sleeves "stayed. in" n tear or raoro we would keep right on taurine our same dress. But if long, llrht riecves suddenly becoino passe, ltd short, full ones are the vogue, we noulU rather commit murder, or bo sen tenced to tho electric chnlr, than ap Ur in public with tho former I What ghastly extravagance! What thousands of dollnni we literally do itroy fn our one lifetime! If vc had a dress of heavy fabric, well made, such li a winter suit of broadcloth, it prob ably would last us many yenrs. But tie general shnpo is no longer In style, m the color is not tho prevailing one, ind so we toss it aside In disdain, and bar another suit, probably not as But' we aro chic, so what matter? Ars vc? It is conceivable that n rare woman b naturally very dnslilng nnd has a Mr 'of wearing delightfully attractive ind becoining'costumcs nnd huts. She deserves praise just because she does bare 'originality. But why should n ttoman be flattered nnd railed "wonder fully fowncd" or "well dressed" be cause she has slavishly copied tho ex act cut and color of the designers of lome foreign country? They may have teitwd to suit a thin, lithe figure, nnd tie woman who buys tho dress may be abort and dumpy, but still she Is called well dressed if she appears in the ho flounced costumo In which she looks hideous ! I may look outlandish in green, but If that is tho season's prevailing color I am supposed to purchnse green towns, hats, stockings, parasols, nnd look as sallow ns n pumpkin. "They ire wearing green this season." Mngic, wcred words, not to be treated lightly tx scorned. Hitravaganco consists in changing Ityles .all the time when our clothes do lot necessitate any new buying. Brave il the woman who can resist purchas er repeatedly, after her eyes have been usaulted n few weeks by the window displays. The psjchology is sure. You are Just comfortably sottled into your sinter garments when suddenly the store windows flash forth stunning whlto cos tuoes! Tho rich arc going to Palm Beackj. Summer costumes are needed, and bo, bathing suits nnd parasols and danllng white fabrics and delicate, iheer, wcbllke dresses nnd stockings, sultea to tho hottest days, pass o'er your vision whilo tho snow is on the ground! Of course, you know thnt yon are not going South, nnd do not teed thin clothes, nud you turn 5 our ejts away. Hut day nfter dny. and week after week, those exquisite light fabrics and dellCuto colors prey upon ,jour soul, through your eye, which Is Its window. And you fall! ion Some of lift Iflftf Innefii Minn Mhra tn this endurance- test, but sooner or later wo go under. We buy long before we need clothes, forcing tho senson and rcn dcrlng our present wardrobe useless. In summer the f-aihe thing happens. Wo are sweltering nnd have n nice collection 61 llngcrio dresses nnd light bote. Sud denly the shop windows bring forth blnek robes nnd the (list fall wraps, whose heavy, hot material positively wearies ono to view. But by nnd by the quiet elegance of dark blue cheviot nnd chic black hats Is borne in on us, nnd the sight of these mnkes our light, fluffy summer gowns appear faded nnd cheap. (And sum mer furs how outrageous!) To rush tho season and rihvnjs be ahead of the styles is n mark of good tnstc nnd wealth, for poor people have to hang on to whnt they hnvc nnd cannot afford the' actual cash to buy new things the moment they hnve paid for tho present season's wnrdrobe. Thus we arc snobbish In the extreme, trying to exploit our ntney. Cowardly and snobbish. There nro Innumerable evils attendant on tills slavish rushing of the season nnd grasp ing the oncoming fashions; yet how many women nre dnrlng enough to go serenely on, wearing their clothes be cause they still aro in good repnir nnd nro becoming, although not tho latest mode? Ono does not advocate being so ex treme as to appear ridiculous. It Is Impossible to thwart conventions too far. Wo Mmplv cannot appear in hoop kirts when all the feminine world Is wenrlng long draperies around Its legs. But we can use some independence nnd not be tied hand and foot by silly cus toms. The trade recognizes that there nre a few women who will not be led. Al ways there Is n common-sense minority ! If hats "nre being worn huge" this sen son noil will find thnt there aro n few attractive styles in small shapes. "When you Insist the saleswoman sighs nnd rcluctnntly gets them out. They nre not "the tiling," but you are nn eccentric, nml she must please you. If enough womn used their own minds they could force styles to be sensible. If you doubt this look nt tho length of present skirts. The extreme women of I'nris decided to cut them to the knee. Preachers raged, parents stormed, men mndo coarse jokes and stared. All feminine modesty of centuries "wns cast aside joyously nnd brazenly, while wom en exposed their legs to the gnrtcr. be cause it wns the decree of fiHilon. Most RirN preferred being called im prnrer to being out of stylo! But look nbout you nnd you will see thnt r. proportion still wear their drcs.ics and suits nbout nine Inches from tho (.round. They nro fat or middle aged, perhaps, but they nre unwilling to tnke up the absurdity, nnd they find plenty of costumes this length. New wo are not so helpless ns it would seem. We hold tho purse, nnd tho power of tho pocketbook is even greater than that of Dame Fashion. Tyrants must bow to gold. Look nt photogrnph3 fifteen years old. Why nre they so hideous? Why do we laugh nt the "outlandish costumes?" They nre what appeared lovoly to us then. They have not changed : they always were outlandish. It-is simply that our eye was jaundiced by tho pre vailing mode of tho day, and it np peared attractive. Now our eyes are normal, in so far as that stylo is con cerned, nnd we view it in nil its hide ousness. Sea tho charming nnd graceful drn- Jicries of ancient Grcok stntues. No one eers nt them thousands of ciirs after ward. Observo the lovely colors nnd soft textures of Oriental draperies; women wear the samo costumes for years, always looking beautiful. Each "dress" of an East Indian woman con sists of so many yards of Fl!k, of one color, folded ?nd laid away with Jewels to match. Fashion does not render it useless. Let ns standardize our dress, dlscov eiing some universal nnd nttrnctive mode, and always select pretty nnd be coming colors.

THE moment Tlieo did not stop "-to think that perhaps for tho first we In his lifo, Richard Blakeslee was awing opposition. She simply knew jj something in her wns rebelling MUnst his high-handed manner, and wo fact thnt he took her submission to " will for granted. But she wns fiw enough not to show that sho was the least ruffled. She did not in tli i.. let ,lim that she was angry, ."tuition told her that coolness nnd '"ei.headcdness were her two best Pons. iMA,'l.,niB,0 Jt n hundred dollars n ss Cndwcll," lie said smoothly.

Afterward Theo wondered that Richard Blakeslee hadn't flown into a rage, but he did nothing of tho kind. At tho tlmo she was conscious that even then he did not see her ns nn in dividual, with her own life to lend. She was still a part of his office; some one whose services ho paid for, a small cog or a large machine, bhc did not exist to him nsldo from thnt, nnd sho was surprised to find thnt it did not so much anger ns amuse her. "The 2.'!th. you said, didn't you? he remnrked finally. "Yes." "Very well, Miss Caldwell, Is that all?" Theo flushed nud turned away. IBs tone wns merely conventional. She really did not know what sho had ex pected, for to look for words of con Rratuintion or anything of that kind from him was absurd. Nevertheless ns she vent back to her woik she found herself wishing that lie had said some thing more. If he had stormed at lipr, even, sho would hnve understood his attitude better than she did this sud den chango in him. It vaguely dis turbed hor, and onco Inter on In the dny when she was taking dictation, she looked up suddenly ns he pnused, nnd mot that same strange look in his eyes that she hnd seen there in tho morning. It wns ns though he looked at her while ho thought deeply of something else. Slip hoped he would suy something more nbout her leaving, but he did nothing of tho kind. Rclntlnns between them were exactly ns they had been, save for tho fact that Theo was conscious that it would soon he over and thnt she would miss it all. It was wonderful to bo herself n part of such n big whole, to feel thnt sho counted. Of course in the future she would count In n bigger way. for she would ho everything to one man. and vet whenever she thought of her life with Jimmy that snmo cold littlo fear crept into her heart; that fear of not realizing what she some how hnd giown to expect. Theo found herself, too. ns the days passed thinking of thnt trip to South America on the Blakeslee jnelit. She had looked forward to it for n long time, but of course she realized with n plgh that Jimmy enme first. It would liavo been utterly heartless to ask him to postpone the wedding until after ward, and in his present stalo of mind, which needed encouragement constantly, ho would have been destitute if she had suggested such n tiling. But Theo wns restless. Now thnt she hnd mado up her mind nnd every thing was settled, sho was unxlous to get it over. She wanted everything speeded up, for she wns beginning to bo actually conscious of the fact that she did not lovo Jimmy nt nil, and sho did not want to admit this even to herself. Please Tell Me .

Do you know whnt it is jou want? Do you really want it? If you "honest Inj'un" want what, you want when you want It. if you have decided what you want and want something that is right and go ahead nnd work your best for it, the chnnces are nil in favor of your some day getting what you nre after.

They prospered because they went nnd did what they wanttd to do. Wherefore this little incident which some days ago I witnessed. There were twenty of them gnthered nbout the edge of the swimming pool. One nfter nnother they tool the plunge and only one remained on the rim. Ho wntched the others envort and disport, nnd every once in a while put his right foot and then his left foot into the wnter and hurriedly withdrew it with n grimace. Some flying drops of spray splashed against his skin and made him shrink back. He fidgeted nbout, hesitated, wavered and shivered, every few minutes thrown into a frenzy b.v somebody who in diving from behind would accidentally bump into him and lenve him swaying on one leg, trembling nnd beating his nrms like Hailb in a ludicrous and frantic effort to regain his equilibrium. His skin had become "goosellesh" when suddenly he wns knocked off his balnnce nnd struck the icy wnter tint on his stomnch with a resounding smack. The shock took the last bit of starch out of him nnd he flapped nbout feebly to tho nenrest stnlrs, up which heernvvled, limp ns n dishrag. Tills man has plenty of compnny. Many like him hesitate, wish and waver around the rim, unnble to pluck up the cournge to tnlce the plunge, constnntlv knocked off their bnlnnce b.v "th mnn behind." nnd finnlly, old, gray and limp, find thej hnve incapacitated them selves for enio.ving life's swim.

One of the irnportant things in connection with any cereal food is to have it thor oughly baked or cooked. For baking' or cooking changes the starch of the grains. Grape-Nuts is the longest baked of all cereal foods. It is scientifically baked at carefully regulated temperatures for 20 hours. This is one of the reasons why N Grape-Nuts digests so easily; why it agrees with many people who cannot take any other form of cereal without producing fermentation. A goodly part of Grape-Nuts is converted into dextrose, ready to be immediately assim ilated by the system, and yield strength and energy. A further portion has partially undergone this change, while there remains sufficient unchanged cereal to strengthen the digestive organs. It is then in a condition to meet the various requirements of tho digestive system. If you want to eat a most strengthening and nourishing- food, and one that will digest more readily, go to your grocer today and get a package of Grape-Nuts. Eat it with stewed fruit or as a cereal with milk or cream; or make it into an appetizing pudding. Every member of the family will enjoy its delicious flavor and wholesomeness.
