SUITS FOR WEAR IN COUNTRY
Homespuns and Tweeds in Attractive
Colorings Make Good-Looking Out
L fits for General Ue.
i.,irnespuns and tweeds in the love
liest of colorings make some extremely
j;ood-looking suits for winter sports or
just general country wear. They will
give a warm dash of color to the land
scape on days when the ground is cov
ered with snow and the air is chilly.
The Knickerbocker suit has evidently
come to stay. It grows In popularity
continually. All the warm red shades
and beautiful rose hues are seen in
these knlckerhocker costumes quite a
departure from the tans and browns
of the old-fashioned, substantial-looking
tweeds. The trousers usually are
made of the checked material, while
the coat Is of plain color. There may
he a hat and scarf to match the jacket.

William Bradford of Plymouth

of life that afflicted the Pil
grims in the early days, Horace
II. Morse, head of the historical
department at Mount Hermon
school, toid the Bostonian soci

of curious historic interest that
Tastor John Kobiuson, who led
the Pilgrims into Holland hut
did not accompany them to New
England, had taxes remitted on
one-half a case of beer a month
and one hogshead of wine every
three months because he held a

It Is not easy to find a frock that
is not built of crepe de chine. Even

scallops. You "can distinguish the
American from the French woman

The former lets it slip carelessly
down over the figure to preserve th
straight line; the latter gives It a
smart pull In at the waist, quite
plainly defining It.

is white, yellow or mauve. The pres

On her way downtown the other
morning the woman stopped to see a
sick friend, who lives on the first floor
of a remodeled private house with a
bedroom overlooking a nice old-fashioned
back yard. The window was
open and suddenly a loud voice broke
the calm of the sick-room.
"You dirty bum, that's what you
are," said the voice. "Of course you'll
be comln' home now for your break
fast and look at you, covered with
dirt. It's a bum you are and not a
drop of blue blood in you. Quit your

STOCKINGS TO MATCH SHOES
Japan's Sulphur Baths.
At the foot of the volcano Asamnya
ma in Japan there is a combination of
hot sulphur and cold mineral springs.
The bathing house consists of three
or four substantial wooden bathing
tanks, Into which the hot water flow),
and a wooden platform running around
the room with cupboards and shelves
where the people dress.
Beams laid across the bathing tanks
divide them Into little squares, a
square for each person.
The duration of the time bath Is
regulated with great precision by the
head attendant, and during, the bath
from 150 to 200 half litre scoops of
hot sulphur water are poured over the
bead of the bather.
Proper Shade for the Eyes.
While better working conditions can
be attained by properly shading and
1 Installing the lamp, much can be ac
I compllshed by shading the eye. But
like lamp shades, eye shades may be
, good and bad. To the latter class
belongs the curved, opaque shade with
i its edge made conspicuous In the field
of view by a dark lining. Such a
shade, acting as a distracting object,
not only disturbs the adjustment of
the eye, but by darkening the upper
half of the field of view causes glare
on working surfaces on which there
Is no glare and Increases the glare on

Knitted Hosiery of Heavy Silk Much In
Demand, for Wear With
Sports Clothes.
Stockings this year are being worn
to match the shoes or the dress, but
more frequently the shoes. The taupe
color which was worn so much in
Paris last season has not attained the
same popularity here, and today the
popular fancy is either for black or
fer brown, fawn, gray or tete de negro.
Of these neg-ie is undoubtedly the most
popular.
With sports clothes knitted stock
ings of heavy silk are much in demand,
and these are invariably ribbed. Cash
mere hose in heather mixture in the
one-and-one rib are much liked, but
the brightly colored fleecy hose are
only a passing craze in some quarters
and will certainly not lie universally
adopted.
That sports shoes this coming spring
ill match in color the sweaters worn
with theiii is a prediction recently
made by some oi ihe leading shoe
houses, but there are occasions of

Men Dodge Age Proposition.
Service of women citizens on the reg
istration boards leads to Interesting
personal revelations about their
neighbors.
A man who holds a ponltlon In the
city government had always given his
real age, now 48, before woman sat on
the boards. When his wife went In
to register for the first time one of the
women on the board said to her:
"Oh, Mrs. Blank, Isn't your husband
an old codger?"
"Why, no," said Mrs. Blank, "1 don't
thlDk 41 Is so very old."
"But he registered as 47."
Silence fell and Mrs. Blank entered
the booth t till out her enrollment bal
lot. Next year, when the husband en
tered the registration place and was
asked by a man on the board his age.
he replied, "42."

had evidently caused a family Bible
meeting looked at him and her look
said volumes. But he stared her

ditional responsibilities until she
