■ * 1 THE ROMANCE OF WORDS “MISTER" AT A time when men were generally called by th.eir Christian names or surnames only, the word “Mister" was applied as u sort of title to those who hud learned a trade or “mystery"—persons who were looked upon as being of a higher rank than common laborers or farmhands. As time passed, the necessity for the male equivalent of “mistress" was more and more recognized—at . rtra: by the use <»f the won! “muster.” and Inter, by the growing popularity of "Mister.” Then, by one of those strange quirks which frequently occur in the growths of languages. “Mister" caused "Mistress" to be corrupted or eUUed into “Missis” and finally, tne two of them were shortened to the recognized abbreviations “Mr." and “Mrs." Incidentally, the feminine form of "Mister” is one of the curiosities of the English language, since, as Walker says, “to pronounce It as it Is written In full —’Mistress’—or even as it has heen contracted into ‘Missis' appears quaint and pedantic. One has to slur it and inject a sound." (© by Wheeler Syndicate. Inc.>

I Frock of Persian Print; Cloth Coats of Regal Splendor |

a PRINTED chiffon afternoon frock xx is Indeed “a thing of beauty and a joy forever." Seeing proves the first part of this statement and wearing will confirm the fact of just such a gown being “a joy forever.” In the category of esthetic dress there Is no more reliable frock than the one made of printed chiffon, i tvtfhal Its fragile loveliness of delicate fabric, glowing with wealth of ouor und design. It has Its practical qualities. The very fact that It revels In such multiplicity of color, fits It Into every scheme of environment as it it ’were a part of the picture. “What shall I wear?” that ever-tantalizing

[ As if the handsomely designed Per- 1 elan printed chiffons were not selfsufficiently exquisite, genius has gone o step further and added multi-colored beads and regal fur until the en- ? semble becomes almost a surfeit of alluring loveliness.

good . resolutions which ’ they tried ■ t o- k e e p a>l 1 through the year. He heard that a good resolve was a kind of promise one made. • It- was a good time for him tc make a good resolution for he had been ver’j naughty. It was hard for a little dog to know right from wro<g every time, especially when wrong often meant such fun!

■ Sb ’ I * ! L J t On the Table. b

l His master and his mistress had 1 told him in stem voices that he had 1 been naughty, but they hadn’t _puni ished him, for in the first place they had said that it had been largely their » fault. ' I His master was a cartoonist. His master drew cartoons, or fuuny pic- [ tures, for the papers. : . Every one said his pictures were f very, very funny. The puppy wasn’t [ much of a judge of that. j His master drew pictures of dogs which were very popular. One day not long after Chrisynas he thought it [ would be fun to draw a pjeture of'a 5 puppy dog chewing up a nice Chrlst- , mas fur. • _ ( Os course that wasn’t so fhnny.in , Itself, or rather that would not . funny to many people. But the master drew the picture to show how j very, very naughty a little puppy ‘ > could be. And, after a time, the drawing was finished and the cartoonist had finished his work. He thought he would like to take a walk with his wife and they decided ’ to take the puppy with them. _ And after they had had a nice walk ’ his wife suggested that they should go and call on some “friends. They didn’t think they’d take the i poppy with them as they didn’t know whether his manners would be of the ’■ best so they opened the do.<j>r for him ‘ at their own house aqd he went inside. ■ 1 And he was left alone and had been s told to be good I Now, It was quite trying to be a little dog all alone in 1 a house with 1 nothing to do, especially after a’nice 1 walk which made'a liftle dog feel so ’ full of energy. ■ ■ But he must be good. Yet some1 how the mind of the little puppy couldn’t think of anything to do that would be good. It was strange how hard it was to think up good acts. It wasn’t that one was not quite willing tp be good—it was just difficult to think up these good deeds. . ' - He wandered about the houstf and went into his master’s workroom. There on a drawing board stood a picture of himself and he was cliewing up a piece of fur and having an enormously gopd time. It was just like seeing himself In the mirror and seeing what a gay and playfuLl little dog he was. • i Well, he wished lie could have a game like that and be so happy. He ’ looked so jolly In the picture. ,Then he thought again and then he said to himself: “Why not?” For on the table was the fur from which his master had been able, to draw his fur picture to make it look very real. Yes, he would do just as he had been supposed to do in the picture. That was a good idea. Jt was kind of his master to think up games for him when he Was left alone in the house. And then he started th to play, and rtch a game as he had. He tore the

fur one way and then another, It was so nice, too, the way bits of fur dropped about : the floor. That made the game so jolly somehow. , Oh, it was .a . magnificent game, playing and pull-. ing and tossing and throwing the fur about. And what a looking tiling It was when the game was over and the /

puppy very tired. Game Then he 'heard'' 1 .-IT • F -the front door open qnd ia came his , master and mistress. Somehow then he knew very well he had been naughty. They came into the workroom and they .saw what had been done. And while their voices were stern his master said that it was his fault to have left the fur so within tempting reach, and besides the puppy had lived up to the picture. And he promised his wife a new fur. So the puppy resolved on New Tear’s day that he would never again chew up a „ fur, and his master resolved never again to leave anything so tempting in the way of a little puppy! And this is a true story! Not Enough Men. Little Jimmy—The Bible says there will be no marrying In heaven. I wonder why?
