out in any assemblage. A blouse of
this type which Is met with so often
that it promises undue popularity la

narrow black patent leather belt and
all edges are bound with tbe black clre

than the slip-on blouse of last year.
"Confetti" Organdie.
That new "confetti" organdie with
Its embroidered spots of many colors
trims delightful little semi-sports
blouse of e crepe de chine making
the narrow round collar, the cuffs and
the vest Indeed, the combination of
Jade and white is very good In new
blouses, and Is particularly well ex
emplified in a dressier blouse of white
crepe de chine, with long slashed
panels falling over the hips, the sur
face covered irregularly with mo
tifs of little green apples embroidered
with Jade crystal beads. '
As to cuts of blouses, the slip-on
with uneven outline at the bottom ap
pears to come first. Sometimes back
and front are left waist-length with
the peplum or panels on the hips, and
sometimes this order is reversed. The
tie-back Is still very good; In fact, it
is seen oftener among those richer
materials that need neither trimming
nor oddity of cut to recommend them.
Sometimes back and front tie in a sin-,
gle knot, with short ends over, each
hip.
A feature that stamps the season
on the slip-on blouse Is the use of rib
bon girdles. They adorn both the
dress blouse and the sports type, the
latter using the cire, grosgraln or
moire ribbons. On a blouse of cameo

THE other night I aaw a clever
cat Re tat on the fence in the
moonlight, all alone. He looked
up at the moon and opened his mouth.
I braced myself for what I believed to
be coming, namely, hi effort at self
expression. But no, this waa a clever
cat Like 0. Henry, he dealt In clever
surprise. In his attitude there was
something of suspense. My waiting
nervous system felt the strain of It
Then he gave voice to a great silence.
He said nothing in a dramatic way.
With a aelf-aatisfled smirk on his
pussy face he Jumped off the fence
gracefully and disappeared into the
niht. He was a clever cat He did
the unexpected in an original and ar
tistic way. He annoyed me, for he
failed to lire up to my conception of
cats, yet I felt a certain admiration
for him.
The next night another cat sat on
the fence. This -waa a great eat,
though his appearance was far from
prepossessing. He was scrawny, aryJ
his coat bore, all too palnly, the
scars of many a "fonghten Held."1 The
divine light of unrest burned In his
eyes. He threw back his bead and
poured out his very soul In vigorous
expression,' sincere and earnest
though unappreciated. Nothing
daunted by the lack of applause, or
by the shower of missiles directed at
his scared person, he gave ful vent
to his message In a form which, though
unconvntional, seemed best to fit his
muse. Then, with an air of utter
abandon, he shook the dust of the
fence from his unconcerned feet and
disappeared. "This," thought I. my
ears still ringing, "was truly a great
cat He had a message and he gave
