Last Summer there was a gasp of astonishment when Paul Poiret showed a black velvet basque with a ruffled minaret skirt of white tulle. There were many reasons for this gasp, chief of which was the problematical return to the tight-fitting waist with darts and seams. The actual use of velvet did not cause much perturbation, although it was Joined to a skirt of filmy white fabric, because one expected to wear velvet somewhere or somehow about the cos tume In the cold eases. Su( here popularity. Introduced, sounding, as he did, the first note of the styles calling for the fitted waist and the full skirt. .Whatever its genesis; the present fact is that It Is now in full fashion. One does not advocate It for every clime in August The very thought Is painful. Most of us would prefer mos quito netting as a fabric for gowns in some towns on s ne days in Summer, therefore to write of a velvet waist is a mockery. - But all fashions are interesting, whether our figures, 'or our climates, or our opportunities allow of our use of them. They have a far wider call than the call to one individual. Therefore, it behooves us to pay attention to a fashion that possibly can only interest us fsom a speculative point of view. An Old Fashion Revived. When we exclaim at the novelty of a black velvet basque in Summer, we should hark back to other decades and there we should find the same fash ion cheerfully accepted even in the far South. There was a time when pique and golden brown velvet were com bined, the trimming consisting of large pearl buttons of a superior quality. When we -go to the origin of the velvet waist with the large rose as an accessory, and the full skirt of trans parent white fabric beneath, we fin4 it is Spanish, and surely there is enough hot weather in that land for a protest to be made, so, possibly, we will waive the discomfort of such a fashion and regard It benignly now, then cheerfully accept It when the told weather comes. There is not much of this new velvet basque, for it is not cut on the lines of the original Poiret model. It is more of a Jumper than a waist. It shows col lar and sleeves of the white fabric, and is rarely closed in the front. When it is not combined with white, then deep cream 'is chosen, that tint that is supposed to be given by age, but is often given by tea It is not cut off sharply at the waist line, either, which was a characteristic of the original, but follows tne pre vailing tendency to lengthen the waist line by extending, wrinkling over -the dividing line with a goodly measure of grace. Skirt of Lace and Orsrandle. The use of that attractive old-fashioned fabric called organdie came upon the world as a surprise. It first ap peared in collars, then blouses, now as skirts to be trimmed with flounces of lace. The new kind organdie is a very soft weave and sometimes lends Itself to pleating, ""and over this foundation a long tunic of lace is superimposed. Sometimes two- or three ruffles are used instead. And, by the way, one must not forget the large rose, brilliantly colored, which is never placed where the world expects it, but far out of the ordinary. The very newest idea in Paris is to pinj it near the neck or at the back of the waist. FOR. TUB BABT. I If there is one person who receives more present than a bride, It 1 a, baby. No one likes to visit In the home of friends who have a new baby without taking a present of some sort to that all-Important person. And by the time everyone has given Sir Baby some trifle, he Is likely to have enough duplicates to start a miniature depart ment store. One of the conceits for a baby who is old enough to hold a spoon and feed himself is a food pusher, which coma In a set with a spoon. It Is a silver piece with a handle like a spoon or fork, but having in place of a bowl a silver bar several inches long with which the small person pushes food on to his spoon. It teaches him -not to use his fingers and enables him to keep his food within the limits of the plate Instead of decorating the table linen with it. A novel bottle holder for the baby who likes to toss his bottle to the floor when he has finished with It is a de light to mothers. It is a metal frame which can be attached to the arm of a high chair or carriage, and from which hangs a sort of cage-like case for the bottle. This holder swings in any di rection, and when the bottle is fast ened In, baby can drink to his heart's content, and, try as he may, he cannot throw it away. Silver cups are given to children for christening gifts, as well as. small sized loving cups appropriately en graved. Mugs of a heavy English dec orated china make useful presents for babies of 2 and 3 years. Ivory sets, consisting of comb, brush, powder box and puff, soap box, rattle and teething ring are arranged in silk lined baskets. There are, of course, no end of bootees and toys, silver rattles and silver chimes, rubber animals and house balls which can be selected for little ones, but nowadays It is the custom to give a baby some remembrance which can be engraved ana Kept uniu ne is oia enough to know he had friends when he was a small morsel of humanity.

DARKER lighted a cigar and list' U ened with Interest to Marian's sprightly discussion of men's folly of marriage. They were seated in a se questered corner of the restaurant in Chinatown, next to a window which afforded a view of the night scene on the busy, polyglot street below- "You have a very dlfferen point of view than that of most women," said Barker. "Women don't often regard men as the sufferers In marriage. They usually regard men as the brutes and women as the martyrs. You inr terest me." "Why shouldn't the truth be Inter esting?" demanded Marian. "The wave of feminism which is sweeping the world is helping women to see the truth." "Yes, but isn't all this feminism af fixing a shipping-tag to romance and rushing it to parts unknown?" asked Barker. "Romance simply clouds the vision and makes us see things in fantastic unreal proportions," replied Marian wickedly. "It is a drug dispensed by poets for the purpose of ensnaring the young." "You speak with the wisdom of one who has entirely escaped the snare?" prodded the Bostonian. "No, I have fortunately been able to extricate myself from the snare. It's more satisfactory to look back upon that sort of thing than to look for ward to going through with It" "And yet you're Jusf a girl," ex claimed the other. "A trifle older in experience than In years," smiled Marian. "It's a wonderful thing to be In love," said the man with fires smolder ing in his brown eyes. "I don't know. I fancy that love Is as rare as it is short-lived. It's a sort of fever. The remedy, as I said, Is usually found In marriage." "I should hate to think that," arguea the man. "I don't think it; I know It," said Marian bluntly. "Then you've been married r was the surprised rejoinder. "Yes, and divorced." The man from Boston was silent for a moment xnen you ve luutnu more than I had any Idea of, although I Imagined you must have sustained some severe blow." Tenderness was now in his voice and eyes. There is a type of man who is drawn with strange attraction to a woman who has undergone the ordeal of divorce. If he already cares ior her, his interest becomes heightened with sympathy and pity for her woes. She is different from other women. She has been tried and tempered Dy fierce fires. She has background. Her personality takes on an esoteric. In definable, subtle character that goads the masculine mind into a desire to help and understand.

I do not mean any transient disturbance that might be caused by the goiter but a settled condition of years. It Is a condition that has re mained unchanged, so far as I can Judge, for 12 years, and I now believe that the physician who made tne exam lnatlon at that time jiver-estlmated its seriousness. Yet I am unwilling to take any strong medicine without first as certaining what effect If any. It would have upon the heart Will you Kindly tell me whether I may take this prep aration of iodine for goiter without danger of affecting the heart unfav orably? "2. My hearing is gradually falling, owing, I think to the clogging of the Eustachian tubes. The trouble is ac companied by constant and distressing bead noises, and began about five years ago. I have never taken advice or treatment for it but have read that this type of deafness can be remedied by the passing of an Instrument through the tubes. My question is: Would this involve an expensive course of treatment? It sounds like a simple thing that ought to be done In one or two treatments. Now please don't tell me to consult a specialist and look to him for my answer, for if you do, I shall keep on postponing the matter until I am stone deaf. There is noth ing I so dislike as placing myself In the hands of a modem specialist for what I think Is often an unnecessarily long and tedious course of treatment If you will kindly answer these two questions in The Oregonlon, I will be greatly obliged." - Reply. ' 1. Iodine preparations have no 111 effect upon the heart You are per factly safe In using this preparation. 2. More than 90 per cent of deafness Is due to catarrhal changes in the mid dle ear and in the throat about the ends of the Eustachian tube, interfering with the air circulation of the middle ear. The noises in the ears are a result of these changes. The Instruments you mentioned are not passed into the Eustachian tubes. but are passed back through the nose to the Eustachian openings and then by means of compressed air the middle ears are Inflated. This treatment often gives much relief. I would suggest mat you see a spe. cialist and have your ears inflated and if it gives you relief get a Pollt- zer bag and ha,ve htm show you how to use It ana men you un mu ywui own ears as often as you need It Also have a treatment of vibratory mas sage given to your ear drums and if this makes you reel oetier you . can tret a little Instrument at one of the Instrument houses for S2.&0 with which you can yourself give massage to the ear drums at home several times a day if you choose. This last treatment Is very helpful for noise in the ears, and if properly given will do the ears no harm. There Is no treatment that will cure catarrhal deafness, but treatment such as I have suggested will add much to one's comfort and may retard any fur ther advance of the deafness.
