URELY THE MOST obnoxious individual to live In the same house with is the husband who insists on training his wife. Ho has resolved that she shall be a tamo copy of himself, which neces sarily implies a large share of self conceit, and this, added to his natural obstinacy, makes life almost unen durable to such as are bound to him by family ties and dare not run away. Men aro so very nice In so many diverse ways that it Is next to Impos sible to find fault with them. But they have some fallings, just a few little foibles to keep them from soar ing up into the clouds. And the man who compels his wife to go to school to him has his sharo of these small defects. In addition to the world fallings of conceit and stubbornness, he lacks Imagination. Would any person endowed with even an oidlnary imagination require another to echo his thoughts, live by tho same rule, do the samo things In tho same way? To be tied down by habit to routine is to be bound to the wheel of life in very truth. There Is no chance for Individuality in such n life, hut to liavo the thongs knotted by tho ono wo loo best Is like assisting at one's own funeral. What any man wants with a bro-lccn-splritcd, warrant ed-not-to-thlnk-for-herself-or-act-wlthout-ad vice wife, Is more than I can fathom. A train ed flea would bo a far moro interest ing companion. Because ho doesn't drink coffee for breakfast ho won't allow his wifo to do fao; coffee Is injurious, ho assures her. It's tho same way with the arran gement of tho house, her clothes, the children's education, tho cook's day out, and tho soit of literature con sumed by tho family. Ho even carries his habit of dic tating to others so far as to interfero with his wife's rollglous convictions nuil insists that slio go to heaven by his rou to or not at nil. This tendency to stubbornness on tho part of tho husband is only sha dowed forth In tho lover by an nlr of possession and masterfulness that Is delightful. But "men aro April whon they woo, December when they wed," and tho hard, cold truth soon comes out. Then there nro two courses open to tho wife. Ono lb to smllo and pro tend to llko it, "John Is so deter mined;" tho other is to fight it out on tho spot. Ono man I know has started In to reform his pretty young wife's man ners, which nro much hotter than his own, because inspired by truo kind ness and tho ttesiro to givo ploasiuo. Ho will Interrupt a conveisation, when btinngors nio present, to le nuuk, "Floronco, restrain yoursolf. It Is not well bred to show omotlon. your lnugh Is ontlroly too loud." This man will not allow his wifo to rend a book until ho has examined it. Tlioro is ti very cxprowlvo word that fits Just buch rases, and it is plg- hundodnoss. if fir i-jmt "o -on OP pM"- f lnu been iiu'vlsd to you ar.fl 5';.. ere compelled to spend your summer at home in town, you probably have sev- j oral friends who are compelled to 'share the same fate as you, and to ! them why not give a "consolation" luncheon or tea when the poor, hot and tired husbands can also enjoy a little change. A little luncheon on Sunday or at 7 o'clock some evening would bo appreciated as much by them as by their wives. A novel but decidedly effective en terprise which would not only look cool, but which actual. y would lower the tompcraturo of tho room would be a block of Ice placed in a large platter. Scatter nasturtium blos soms and leaves over the Ice and completely hide the platter with them. In the hollow, which has been melted out of the center of the Ice, place a quantity of delicious' berries, or If you prefer fill the hollow with refreshing lemonade. Place two tall vases filled with nasturtiums one at each end of the table. The delicious spicy odor of the nasturtiums Is re freshing on a hot day. The menu should be simple and en tirely cod even to the beverages. Cold meats and salads with delicious frozen desserts will tempt the appe tite of any one in summer. Mr. and Mrs. W. I Murphy went to Goodwill's to camp for a while. Miss Eugene Schilling Is guest of .Miss, Helen Bradley, at Cullip's grove. Miss Nora Tower is the guest of Miss Florence Aiken at Cutlip's Grove.

Myers tsasHfrEfrESHSBfrESHfrasHSHSHSHsasBSBii It Is delightful to know that while we have been content with our sum mer clothes of sheer muslins and filmy laces, capable minds have been at work all through the summer months, creating all manner of de lectable now fabrics and modes, with which to charm us at the approach of another season. Naturally tho first point of interest in the new fabrics is color. Neutral tints, and rather dull sombre shades, aro the order of the day. Smoke Grays Popular, The most decided of the dull shades is found among tho grays. London smoke, molo (taupe), etc., are shown in fabrics for street and semi-tailored wear, while tho moro delicato tint, sllrer mist, is beautiful in the soft satins shown for evenlne. Blues nnd Greens. Our old friends, the blues, greous and browns are shown in such entire ly new guise that they are at once a surprise and a delight. Greens promise to he especially popular. A arlety of pretty medium shades are shown, In all of which yellow pre dominates. Hunter's green, olive, ro seda and myrtle lead. Blue with a greenish tone, such as peacock, and the lightor shades bor dering on turquoise and Persian blues, are shown, while navy will un doubtedly lead for practical wear. A Season of Color Combinations. This season promises to be one of color combinations. Frequently two dull tones are combined, such as tan and gray. Some of the new shades of tan, of a coppery tinge, but dull, combine well with tho new peacock blues and greens. Satins Lend. Satins, liberty satins, crepe de chine and velvets are all well adapt ed to the clinging autumn styles, be in? soft but of good weight. Satins are especially favored, and will be used not only for costumes but for coats and wraps of various desci Ip tlons as well. Satins are al&o avail able for linings and diops under the new tightly ntting skirts, and for this use they are exceptionally well adapted. Worsted Dross Fabrics. Serge In both plain and fancy weaves, cheviot suitings In diagonal weaes, herringbone and chevron pat terns, sometimes In two colors, and in stripes of two colors aro the most popular materjals for talloied suits Bioadcloth of fine quality will be used, as it is well adapted to the "llnglng Directoire stjles. Corded silks are among the French importa tions, but are used only for coats. Ti'iminiiiKs. Braids are used in profusion for trimming all tailored garments. Small cord braids take the place of the soutach of last season. Very large cloth and braid covered buttons form a lavish adornment on many of the suits of military design. The laces and nets used aro all quite heavj in appearance, and fringes and tass les aro extensively employed. when good nights were said and the guests returned to the city on the launch. Among those present wore: Mr and Mrs. C. J. Millis, Miss Mable Clare Millis, Miss Lewis of Portland Harold Millis, Mr. and Mrs. Richard son, Mrs. Myrlc, Mrs. McCrey, Mr and Mrs. Bohlen, Francis Franse Mabel, Alpha and Homer Mauzey, Mamie Gulovson, Maude Elliott, Mis? Bonebrake, Florence Graham, Mrs Garlinghouse, Mr. and Mrs. Weslej Smith, Mr. and Mrs. V. O. Pratt, Mr and Mrs. C. H. Marsh, Geo. Doll, Sam Marsden, Charles Rehfeld, Clara Rehfeld, Delia Pratt, Mrs. Geo. Watklns, Miss Ruby Watkins, Miss Pearl Watklns. TO DRESS WKLL. If you would dress In good taste pay particular attention to shoes, gloves and veils, to nicety In the matter of neckwear and to trifles that give pretty finishing touches to a plain costume. The woman who is dressed In good tasto is not always the ono who spends the most on her clothes, but, rather, the one who can afford so few frocks that she sticks to plain modes and colors best suited to her. Tho woman who will give a little thought to the matter of djess mana ges to spend less money nnd get bet ter results and service than tho care less, Indifferent woman who is con tent to wear "just anything." A woman's gown is ono of the In dexes to her character. If for no other reason, it should merit careful consideration.
