Paquln is persistent. She likes the full skirt and she has continued making it for two years. Again It is on the market, or rather at the fashionable places where well dressed foregather. Will It really succeed? Aren't women now educated to think it Is ugly? Do they want to forsake the narrow short skirt for the full longer one? The theorists think that a return to the full skirts will be the most decent thing women could do In the way of clothes, but the women who must use the skirts are not so sure they could go back with happiness to those yards of full material dangling around the ankles. ' " Paul Polret is also persistent. He likes full skirts, too, but he thinks it should be adopted from the Orient. He designed the roost comfortable full skirt that woman could possibly wear, which Is merely a bag of soft material made out of orie long width sewed together at the sides and slashed at the ankle line. There is nothing Immodest about this P SUMMER ATTZRNOON'GOWN IS FETCHING. 'II v-v x y . i i ' . var I II I :f .

It could really claim the blue ribbon for decency for it only shows a speck of the ankles at each sloe wnicn is much less than the full skirt shows in a wind storm. Will We Wear Full Skirts 1 . No one can tell what women 4u mass will do. If they should take an idea to wear the harem skirts of Paul Poiret, they would make It the fashion tomorrow, say the world what It may. But, in the present state of affairs, their full skirts will be popular, but that women will decide upon the Grecian skirt which Polret Introduced in Aphrodite. It Is comfortable and more becoming than either of the other styles. One sees a great number of such skirts here with Jersey waists and broad sashes around the hips. These skirts are not extra short. One notices a tendency for covering the ankles and cutting skirts off at the Insteps. After all, the extremely short skirt is merely an evolution made necessary by wo men not being able to "walk In narrow skirts, and with the straight pleating hanging from waist to instep one has entire freedom at all times. White Taffeta Gowns Popular. For the Deauvllle faces there are frocks of white taffeta which show the flaring Paquln skirt and the Premet buttoned Paquin skirt and the Premet basque buttoned down the front. Beneath these flaring skirts are worn white colonial pumps with silver buckles and on the hair immense sailor hats of black velvet with a single burnt ostrich feather in front or at one side. The feather is either black or white. THE CAKE THAT KEEPS.

For the unexpected cup of after enoon tea, for the cooling glass of lemonade, we often turn in vain to the cake box. If. however, you make a habit of keeping on hand some one of the many kinds of cake that im prove, rather than deteriorate, with a moderate lapse of time you will never be caught cakeless. Here is the rule for an inexpensive and not too rich fruit cake that Is not difficult to make. Cream together one cupful of butter and two cupfuls of sugar and add one cupful of back molasses, four eggs well beaten, and one cupful of sour milk in which have been dissolved two level teaspoonfuls of soda. Ihto four cupfuls of flour sift one heaping tea spoonful of cloves and one grated nut meg. Stir this into the cake mixture gradually.

To make an especially delicious cake of the lasting variety cream together one cupful of butter and two cupfuls of sugar and add one cupful- of milk. Sift three cupfuls of flour and one tea spoonful of baking powder three times and add to the mixture and stir well. Slice very thin one pound of citron, blanch one pound of almonds and chop fine and grate one medium sized fresh cocoanut and add to the mixture with one wineglassful of white wine, stir ring enough to mix only. Last fold in the beaten whites of eight eggs. Bake in two loaves and cook in a moderate oven. Sour Milk Drop Cakes.

Mix these in gredients well together and drop on buttered tins, leaving a good space be tween drops. Bake in a hot oven and sprinkle with powdered sugar. When thoroughly cool lay away in a box with oil paper between each layer of cakes. Walnut Wafers. This recipe calls fr one cupful of brown sugar,- one tablespoonful of but ter, one egg, one and one-half heaping table-spoonfuls of flour and one cup ful of chopped English walnuts. Mix the butter and the brown sugar, and the egg well beaten and mix In the flour. Add the chopped walnuts and drop with a teaspoon in well-buttered tins and bake in a hot oven. Cool slightly before removing the tins. Four o'clock Tea Cake.

THAT night when the house was quiet Drusilla called very softly to Bobby Jones, and he did not need a second invitation to hear the rest of Drusilla's story. He popped out of his box with a bound that nearly tipped It oyer. , "I never before realized how much that nurse disliked me, but she found out that she could not get my little mother to go anywhere .without me, and what do you suffpose she did?" asked Drusilla. - ' Bobby shook his head.: "She took my little mother to a place where they make dolls," announced Drusilla. . . "We went In a train a long way from where we had that first break fast," said Drusilla, "and one day when the rest of the family went on a trip that nurse said, 'I will take you where they make dolls and I guess you will want to leave that old .creature when you see all the beautiful dolls we shall see "And she tried to make my little mother leave me at home, but she wouldn't, and I went along. Bobby Jones, I never knew there were so many dolls in the world and so many kinds. Dolls as big as my little mother and as small as as as you, yes, smaller." "Mercy!" exclaimed Bobby, "didn't you feel little beside the big one?" "Of course I didn't," said Drusilla. "I was In my little mother's arms and that made me look down on all of them. But some of them had Just beautiful hair and eyes that opened and shut with real eyelashes and some of them could walk, too. "And some of them said "papa and mamma' and then ,one doll sang a song. She was very handsome, and she walked about while she was singing." "My,"- said Bobby Jones, "I should have thought your little mother would have wanted one of those wonderful creatures." "Well, that is just the part I was coming to," said Drusilla. "That nurse said to her, "Don't you want one of these dolls to take home with your and i,he put one of the big dolls close to my little mother, who took it in her arms. Then the nurse took me as though she was going to hold me while my little mother held the big doll, and just as soon as my little mother was Interested In the big doll that nurse said to the man who owned the shop. "Here, you take this doll and put It out of sight. We have, been trying to get her to have a new 'doll for a long time, but she will not give up this old thing.' ' "I was pretty well frightened, I can tell you, Bobby Jones, when that man took me and put me on a shelf back of a pile of legs and arms, and I won dered if he was going to cut off mlno and put them with those I saw. "That nurse kept talking to my little mother, and they made the new doll say 'papa and mamma,' and that nurse said, "We will go to the shops and get her a hat and shoes and stockings."

' '1 Divoreedlife JfeJenffessanjfUcssle. Copyright The Adams Newspaper Service. Mr. Wiley and His Body. THE Mr- "Wiley who ate at Marian's X table at Placid Inn was In love, deeply and supremely In love-with his body. He lookeu young 'for his 55 or 60 years because of the infinitesimal precision with which he fed, cared for and pampered himself.

He struck the proper balance with the nicety of science. He ate n.iih ton much nor too little. He took a bit of claret with his dinner. One cigar a day he smoked, never more. Once at dinner, observing that he ate no meat, Marian made a remark about the matter. Mr. Wiley smiled in a kindly, supe rior sort of way. "I am eating no meat because I am unusually fond of spinach, asparagus and parsnips, all three of -which are on the menu this evening. If I ate these, and meat besides, I would overload my stomach. That is a thing I never do." After dinner, on the veranda, when Mr Wilev had finished his cigar, one of the men offered him another. He refused, explaining tnat it was nis ruio never to smoke more than one cigar a day. "That's all," he said. "I en Joy one. The second would not give me as much pleasure. Therefore my enjoyment of It would be impaired." "Mr. Wiley is a refined and perfect sensualist," said Mrs. McCarrens to Marian a little later. "His ability to take the proper care of himself amounts to genius. He never crosses tne line of differentiation between enough and too much. He is an apostle of superlatively correct diet. He Is a perr ennial wonder in an age of fatness, gout and acute Indigestion." she laughed. "Really, he's an uncanny sort of creature. You must become . better acquainted with him. He's Interesting to study like an odd, sleek bug of some Bort." "What .Is he a widower?" Inquired Marian. ' "Oh, my no! He's never been mar ried," said the other. "If he got mar ried he'd have someone to worry about. That's out of his line. His own scheme of life is perfectly solved. His Income Is nicely adjusted to his needs. He travels north and south with the sun. Get him to tell you about himself some time. He has conquered all the pit falls of callow youth. He Is a superb materialist." The more Marian saw of Mr. Wiley the more she began feeling a mischiev ous obsession to upset his selfish sched ule of life by making the curious old fellow fall head-over-heels In love with her. The supreme and ever-apparent -oifiaiiness of the man seemed to mock at all the world which was playing such havoc with tne lives 01 otnera. mu coid, uncanny immunity from every thing that savored of impulse or the impetuous made Marian eager to try her hand at upsetting his reckonings. She-longed to try the experiment. She was curious as to where it would lead. She felt certain of one thing. No repetition of the fiery experiences withj Calhoun, the Southerner, lay ahead of her should she venture on this partic ular experimental undertaking. She was sure that under the cold, almost fishy, exterior of Mr. Wiley no emo tional embers burned. That was ut terly beyond belief. Snapshots .Barbara Boyd, Making Your Town More Valnable. DID you ever Ffbp to think a bit how the right sort of civic spirit increases the value of the property In a town? Or even if you do not own property, how it makes a town pleas anter to live in? Probably you have thought of It, for most of us are interested in civic mat ters nowadays. But It was brought home to me very forcibly this Summer by my vacation trip. I left a town where the civic spirit is of high order: It is a town with some delightful natural advantages, but they are but the background for the town itself and what the towns n.iA have done. Every person ii that little town seems filled with the desire and ambition to make that town as clean, as beautiful, as healthful as it is possible for a town to be. The streets are kept as Immaculate as a good housewife's kitchen. The lawns and gardens shine as If dusted. Flowers are everywhere. There is not a. dis Hguring spot or nook or corner In tne place. No matter how tiny the house, how small the yard, all is attractive, neat and overrun with blossoms. Everybody who comes to the town, and walks or rides up ana flown in - nl-tma A1TAP It hfl.UtV. T" V. nt root a Are well-lighted, the drinking water good. A boulevard has been laid out to take In all the bits of pretty scenery. There are little parKs with public croquet grounds and ten nis courts. A municipal lighting plant has brought down the cost 01 eiei. .it untu the tiniest home can af ford it In a recent heavy storm, the Commissioner of Streets and Highways spent days and nlgnts in ram "a ...i n vnrt nil damage possible. Everybody in the place works with all his heart to make it the finest little city in the country. What is the result? It is not only a delightful place to live in, but people who go to visit Te maln to become residents. Real estate booms. New hotnes are going up all the time. The town Is growing rapidly, and the more It grows the more It has to offer Its citizens. The town I came to has far more nat ural beauty than the one I left. It has a great bay with water of sapphire sparkling in front of it. It has a coast-line over-arched with green pines and broken with gigantic rocks where snowy spray dashes high. It has hills climbing up behind it clothed with great forests of the murmuring pines. It has wild flowers growing in the country around about till the earth seems a magnificent Oriental rug of glorious hues yellow poppies, Indian paint-brush, verbena, nasturtium, ge ranium and great masses of a lovely little purple flower like violets. But the town has no civic spirit The .houses straggle as they please up and down little narrow streets, the houses unpalnted, the streets unpaved. Weeds are everywhere. Vatfant lots are filled with rubbish. Most of the houses are hideous architecturally. Dingy curtains hang at their windows. Real estate agents refuse to show you many of the houses on their list, saying apologetically, "They are too dirty." When you enter the one little street car that yowls occasionally through the town, you feel as If you do not want your Bklrts to touch the floor: anrl its windows still bear traces of subsidence of the flood. The electric light costs twice what It does In the other town. And so you might run through the things that affect comfort and nleasure in living. You look at the sea and the pines and the wild flowers, but you have no desire to look at much else. And you doubt if you would take as a gift a house or lot in the place. Tet commercially, real estate in this town could be made worth a lot more than It Is In the other. If the towns people would take hold of their little place and make It beautiful. They have a fortune rignt wimin ineir oor ders. But they are sound asleep, or else lazy, indifferent or lgnorant. So you see that the right kind of civic spirit pays, does it not? It Is a good commercial asset.

The experience of Motherhood is a try In? one to most women and mark dis tinctly an epoch in their lives. Not oni woman in a hundred is prepared or un derstands how to properly care for her self. Of course nearly every woman nowadays has medical treatment at such times, but many approach the experi ence with an organism unfitted for the trial of strength, and when it is ovei her system has received a shock from which it is hard to recover. Followina right upon this comes the nervous strain of caring for the child, and a distinct change in the mother results. There is nothing more charming than happy and healthy mother of children, and indeed child-birth under the right conditions need be no hazard to health or beauty. The unexplainable thing is that, with all the evidence of shattered nerves and broken health resulting from an unprepared condition, and with am ple time in which to prepare, women will persist in going blindly to the trial. Every woman at this time should rely upon Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, a most valuable tonic and isvigorator of the female organism. In many homes once childless there are now children be cause of the fact that Lydia E. Pink ham's Vegetable Compound makes women normal, healthy and strong. If you want special adrice write to Lydia E. PinVhara Medicine Co. (conQ. dential) Lynn, Mass. Tour letter will be opened, read and answered by a woman and held in strict confidence.
