INCONGRUITY A NEW NOTE IN PARISIAN MODES, SAYS JLENE Sheerest Chiffons Make Tailored Sports Costumes, Milan Straws, Soft Felts 0. K. With Decollette Gowns, Writes Girl From Paris.

To you who would worry over the incongruity of things in the world, the analysis that Aunt Louise and I have made that incongruity isihe new note in Paris fashion will probably come as a blow. Don’t take it too hard, Sue, this incongruity business, because while you probably would have screamed at the thought of having your bridesmaids wear lovely, floppy, openwork, light colored felt hats with organdie dresses, it’s quite the most lovely thing that has happened around here for some time. For Note of Chic A skillful hand, you know, must combine the unrelated component parts of art .incongruous costume if it is to have thfe Paris note of chic. Yesterday’s round of shopping and evening of dining and dancing convinced me that the sheerest of chiffons can be used for fashioning tailored sports costumes while heavy Milan straws and soft felts are O. K. for dinner or theater wear with decollette gowns, if the right person wears them with the right accessories. One smart mannequin wore the softest of lace dresses with white kid gauntlets, a white §port hat and a white leather and gold necklace as accessories. Aslo we noted the increasing tendency to use delicately tinted ostrich tip to trim solid-black hats. Fine Feathers. Fine Birds Feathers, by the way are decidedly "in.” It would seem a woman's own fault this year if fine feathers did not make fine birds. They are used on everything from lingerie to tricky collars for evening coats and

TWO GREATEST NEEDS OF WOMEN ARE LOVE, WORK The First Passes Swiftly and Disappoints, but the Second is Never Deceiving, Mrs. Ferguson Says.

By Mrs. Walter Ferguson Is it not strange that the woman who has so many of the luxuries of life, fine clothes, Jewels, cars, is often the most dissatisfied of her sex? She spends her days in perpetual boredom, eaten by.futile longings, complaining about her lot and feeling herself a martyr. For women, like men, need two fundamental things in this world to make them happy—love and work. Passes Swiftly The former sometimes passes swiftly and disappoints while it lingers. It may bring heartache and disillusion. But work is one goddess who never deceives her votaries. Outwardly, of course, we appear to be ever striving {o attain a post tion where wy shall never have to labor, where we may linger in perpetual idleness. But in reality not one of us really longs to arrive there. Our need is for ceaseless occupation, pleasant tasks in which we may forget the hollowness of life. Who Work Havoc This is the reason why these women who need never labor and who are looked on with envy by' those who must toil, are nearly always the ones who work havoc in the world, who whine about their lot, who rush from one silly marriage to another, and spend their days in misery and futility. Our grandmothers were happier than we because they worked, and

Your “Regular” PainNowNeedless #• Menstruation is a perfectly natural process, but the painful part is NEEDLESS. Long study has absolutely conquered menstrual pain. Science now offers women reliable and complete relief —in a simple, utterly harmless tablet called midol. This newest achievement of the laboratory has nothing to do with ! drastic, habit-forming drugs that kill 1 pain by benumbing the whole sys- , tem! Midol acts directly on the organs affected by menstruation, and nowhere else. Yet rtlief and absoi lute comfort tome in five to seven 1 minutes! \ So, why have a twinge of pain— J feel or even uncomfortable! JOr take anything to depress the heart or upset the system? All drug stores have midol in a thin aluminum box that tucks in purse or pocket—for 50 cents. Mjy&ol Zafoa Pain Off ih* Ctlondur

DEVOTED TO WOMEN’S INTEREST

from trimming on a jaunty walking hat to forming elaborate headdresses for evening wear. Parasols are using feathers too, either to trace out a pattern on them or in flo\ye* shapes. The new parasols are just darling, anyhow. They epitomize the tendency toward more effeminate styles this spring and summer. One was of pale pink organdie with flowers in delicate pastel colors appliqued on it until, looking up through it, I felt precisely as If I had been standing under an apple tree that was wafting its blossoms down onto my sunshade. Parasols to Match Some parasols match the figured silks and chiffon* that form the new dresses. But those in delicate solid colors with unusual treatment in the trlnftning are the smartest I think. New jewelry matches the color of your gown, have you heard that? A gray costume takes gray pear’s, lavender takes lavender and so on. Such a lot of different colors as are showing themselves along the Rue de Rivoll. Down the Back Now • One more novelty is the manner in which milady wears her necklace now. My dear, you must hang your pearls or your gold chain down youp back Instead of in the front, as per usual. Flowers are worn at the bottom of the V or U decollette back line, too. I suppose brooches will go in the back instead of the front of waists soon. I hope you can find plenty of interesting things to do in lis this summer. I’ll see about half of your fellow citizens in Paris I guess, l>ut some of you younger ones will have a most delightful time "playing.” Golf, horseback riding, swimming and everything. Do tell me what’s going on. My love. vs \jlwl

worked hard. We pity them when we read about their hardships, but dare we say that all of our labor-saving devices have brought us real content? Her Days Are Full The middle-class mother of America whe cooks for her husband and tends her children, if she be a halfway intelligent person, is happy because her days are full. Here is the most perfectly rounded of feminine existences because, not only is she occupied, but she is fulfilling the destiny which nature planned for her. The busy professional or business women without a family is generally a contented person because, while she may have been denied a woman’s chief gift, still she has pleasant occupation and an ambition toward which to work. Avoids Burdens It is the well-to-do housewife who is consumed with restlessness, she who has been provided with every luxury, who is wrapped in cotton wool until she shudders at the Idea of assuming any of the burdens of existence. She is tha personification of human misery, the Nation’s chief mischiefmaker, the worst enemy of marriage and the home, and yet withal a most pitiful creature because she will never Consent to have *r disease diagnosed. - ■ HONORED BY PARTY Miss Genevieve Moore of Phoenix, Ariz., who is a house guest of Mrs. Ralph S.
