HEN she is happy,"
announced the club
editor. : '
"When she is serv
ing breakfast coffee,
dressed in a pretty
negligee, opined the
art editor. "There's
a wonderful charm
about a 'woman in simple morning dress at
the head of her own table. She looks like
the plrltrof domesticity, 'the genius of the
home when the.negligee is clean."
"I, -too, like a pretty woman best in
negligee," the Story Lady agreed. ,
5 "l'u a ball gown she has nothing on her
mind but coquetting and getting partners.
She is keyed up and self-conscious and pur
posely pretty. In a tailor gown her mind is
bent cn nothing but getting somewhere. She
is too sharply defined. Sitting bade in her
box at the opera her thoughts are all on the
impression she is making.
Votes for Negligee.
"In a negligee she is real, comfortable,
receptive. Her true 'nature and the charm
of her womanhood have a chance for free
play. I like her best that way." ,
"A pretty girl looks prettiest when she
lifts 'her head suddenly, startled by . some
thing.' said the auto editor.
"My.. sister looks prettiest when she is
angry. Her eyes get big and brilliant, her
cheeks red;-and she's peachy."
"Me for the pretty girl sitting on a front "
porch on a summer evening before dinner, in
a white dress all frills and flounces," was
the rote of the office humorist-at-Iarge.
