Gifts Are Surprises, Not Matters of Tracie

A slipper bag, a fan, a shawl and white gloves, these were thè requisite for a woman attending a party not so many vears ago. But there are very few young women now who give mueh attention to those details. We wear our slippers to thè dance, instead of earrying them in a bag. A fan is only carried with a certain type of gown, ar.d it is usually a very strikìng and effective part of thè costume instead of a demure and dainty littie thing. A piece of tulle, if anything. takes thè place of thè silk shawl. and ihe tvhite gloves are simply not seen at all in thè ballroom. Gloves Not Essential Theresa —I hardly feel that you would be justified in spending thè number of dollars it takes to buy ìong white gloves for your tìrst party, although I admire your interest in thè little things. They are thè ones that count. In most places tulle uround your head or shoulders would l>e considered more up to date, and in addltlon it‘s mueh less expeosive.

Yes, yoti should thank thè young man for accorri panying you home from any sort of an entertainment. I can see no reason for your maiiing thè package to some one in your own hotne.

Martha Lee*s Advice

believe that he is giving you any thing. Gossip in Common bear Miss Lee: 1 am a airi of 19 and have been g-o.r ,e with a fellow four years. I have received eeveral diamonds from him. I have a girl friend who live aerose thè Street from me. have know-n her about eeven years. Severa! persons have told me that this fellow is too friendly with thls girl. Kindly advise me how- to take this matter.—JACKOLINE. Jackoline, you do not say that you are engaged. but teli me that you have several diamonds. If you are not engaged I cannot see that you have any right to say “How shall T take this matter." As for your friend, if you have known her seven years you surejy know whether to credit gossip about her. I should either Ignoro thè affair or else go to my friend and ask her to explain, telllng hot what you have heard. Admits His Faults bear Miss I.ee: I am 19 years old and I wmt with a girl one year younger than T for neariy a year. We quarreled several times and at last broke off altopether. She seemed to think that she conici go with any one. but I should go with no one but her. The last tirile we broke up it wn p'etty mueh my fault. I do a great many things I shouldn't and she had reason to become angry. I’ve been with other girla and eem to have a very good timo stili I think an awful lot of her I haven't been with her slnce July. Help me if you can.— i EANNY. Are you willlng to admit that thè i last quarrel was your fault? Will you teli her that you will try to break thè habits which annoy her? If so. i you have a right to go to her and' ask to renew her frlendship. If you do this she probably will be reasonable about your golng with other girle. Teli her that a boy 19 and a girl 18 years old should have many friends each, not just each other. If you are not willlng to correct your fault3, your admlttlng them won't help. OIL STOVE EXPLODES.
