MADAME SPECTATOR'S OBSERVATIONS By Catherine Allman
Two darkies, dusky as the ace bf spades, climbed into the street car with haughty "beg pah'dons" as they jostled against its white occupants. Both were gotten up regardless, neck ruffs and all, with a touch of rouge coquettishly applied to their black; cheeks. "Deah, meah.

" undah yo' Since the craze for gowns of renaissance lace and lace robes took the fair sex by storm, and daughters of Eve were led to use up their parlor curtains in the pursuit of Fashion, the styles have led us to wierder things each year. Flowered cretonne was introduced this summer and adopted by the more daring ones. One of my friends thought to bedazzle her husband, so she appeared one evening dressed for the theater in an evening coat of cretonne In which yellow roses rioted. Her husband took in the costume with a chill glance. "Wait a moment, Julia," he said. "You need something more to complete the illusion. I'll run upstairs and get it." "Here it is, dear: carry your opera glasses and fan in it," he called from the head of the stairs, and dropped the huge family laundry Tag of flowered chintz at her feet. One day a caller said Mrs. Smith, "Who is sick? A trained nurse admitted me; such a handsome nurse." "Oh, that is my cook," Mrs. Smith answered, swelling Just a little bit at her visitor's polite surprise. "Mary." her husband suggested a few nights later, "why don't you arrange your hair like Miss Adams, the cook?" There was another point. It is all very' well to be er philanthropic and all that, but it comes with a wrench to have to address your cook as Miss, even if she is a Wellesley graduate. Mrs. Smith was beginning to long for the return of the worst servant she had ever had in her employ.

Men may wear dull red and medium tan gloves later in the year. Fine French flannel shirts are gaining a firmer foothold every day. Among the high colors offered in the popular pleated shirts are pastel tints, old rose, deep gold. In fact the range is hard to limit. Wrhen in doubt, select black. It Is always "safe and sane," if not the latest expression of style. The lock-front, turn down collars open a trifle wider at the front, to admit the embrace of heavier ties. Extremes in hat shapes are meeting with little favor from correct dressers. The very small derbies and the wide brim derbies find few buyers.

club met. Mrs. Henderson sent regrets at the last moment. There was consternation in Mrs. Smith bosom. Seeking a substitute, she telephoned to various acquaintances, but in vain. What should she do? Suddenly she ; fled to the kitchenward, knocking at the door. "Miss Adams, do you play bridge?" "Yes, Mrs. Smith. I belong to two night clubs. "Go up to your room, then, and know; they would never understand, and some of them are such cats." "Very well, if you wish it to be so, Mrs. Smith, I will try to live up to the role, though I dislike deception." Miss Adams dressed faultless, and she played bridge, too, as her score showed. Mrs. Smith explained that her cook was ill, and with the assistance of the fascinating Miss Adams she served here guests, who compliment the hostess on her culinary achievements. Play over, it developed that Miss Adams had won first prize, a hand painted tankard Mrs. Smith had selected with a view to winning. Miss Adams also played and sang for the guests, and the members voted her a most charming young woman and expressed the hope that she would join the club. When Mr. Smith returned home that evening he found Mrs. Smith bustling about the kitchen, humming as she prepared dinner. "WThy, where is Miss Adams?" he asked in dismay. "Gone," his wife answered and continued humming. "Didn't she like the place? Why didn't you raise her wages? Goodness gracious she was the best cook we ever had." "John Smith," and his wife's quiet demeanor had flown, "I want a servant in my kitchen not liable to be mistaken for me; I want somebody who smashes dishes occasionally and burns the steak now and then. I can't live up to a cook who plays bridge better than I do." John Smith being a wise man in woman's ways, held his peace. But as he passed out of his wife's hearing Into the library, where the card tables still stood about, he gave a long, low whistle. y cate and pleasing designs and oriental patterns. Caps for outing and for the mountains are rather larger than last year, with long visors. Styles in shirts show little change. The trend is toward greater popularity for pleated bosoms. Plain negligees are coming in a strong second. Black remains the strongest color in hose, but it is far from the most assertive. Solid high colors are the thing; loud patterns are completely out. 3,000 MILES TO WED. English Girl and Westerner More Joined. Once Pittston, Pa., Oct 17.
