" Helen-shook her head dolefully et don't knew. &lp Just wouldn't let mi wear It." OP COURSE Helen will have the ntw dress, nil fresh nnd nice for sem ether occasion, e nut as Peggy snys, what's the use of keeping It? Why net wear the dre, especially when she Is se sltunted th It doesn't hnvc te be her only best dress.

And Just the one time when everybody had new dresses nnd she wanted se verj very much te wear hers, she hnd te t seen In the old one, se thnt the new nn could be "kept." . m It seems like useless henrdlng. It Is like keeping fine chltin lnld away In the dark, just because It Is thi "best." There Is never nn occasion ptnH enough te warrant the bringing out e! the "best chlnn," nnd It takes up per. fectly geed storing space for years when It might at least be helping te beautllj the dining room. W5 IAT is the use of "ketplni" things, just because they "best"? Why have any "best" when you never give it n chnnce te justify Its existence?

The over ever dressed and constantly hedtamended woman who flaunts her riches In the face of poorer acquaintances Is, In the Irish phrase, "surprised at herself." Hhe Ii showing that she Is net uccustnmtd ta money and te what money can buy; h has net yet nttalned the perfect sim plicity which Is the ultimate token of geed breeding. Hut hew few realize that poverty shame la as vuj-ar as any cheap arfe. gatice of the newly rich. The woman who feels mortified by the contrast tx. tween a neighbor's wealth and her own lack of riches and who shows her humil iated feelings tee plainly Is simply play. Ing the ether woman's hand : she, tee, Is thinking of money valuations alone. Yet the simplicity rf genuine refinement nan nothing te de with price tlcketl! It Is neither proud of riches nor ashamed of a small Income. Crepe Satin Boudoir Coats 18.50 Formerly 27.50 Charming model with plaited frills. Tur quoise, r e s e, corn flower, orchid and pink.
