YOU MAKE IT UP.

My grandma on my mother's side
she had her share of trouble:

And anyone but her, I guess. would
say she did. and double,

For mother‘s mother had to bear
not only all the bother

Her husband had. but also had to
hear my mother's father.

But she would say if think she
meant because she had my
mother),

“Well. what you lose on one thing.
though. you make up on another.

For all the trouble grandpa had. of
course she had to share it.

And do the grinning for them both.
so they could grin and bear it.

For I remember how he kicked.
remember his complaining;

It always seemed he had too much
of sunshine or of raining.

Dut this was her philosophy. my
mother’s good old mother:
"Veil. what you lose on one thing.

though. you make up on another.

And that was true. If hay was
poor. potatoes were a wonder:

Or else the hay was great the year
you turned potatoes under.

,‘l'he winter wheat was extra fin.
the year of snowy weather
'I'hat nipped the fruit—1nd so. you

see, it all worked out together;
When tnbther’s father would come
plain. she'd say. my mother's
mother:
‘Well. what you lose on one thing.
though. you make up on an.
other."

Yes. that was her patio-cpl”. and I
suggest you try it.

It's helped me many and many a
time. I never will. deny it.

Our cares and blesdngs balance up.
our pleasure and our sorrow,
And. if it rains all day today. there‘-

greener grass tomorrow.
matever trouble you may have.

you'll likely find. my brother.
That what you lose on one thing.

though. you make up on another.

Making It
Seem Cool

U know, of course. that you

can do wonders in making

your house and yourself
seem cool. even with the ther-
mometer standing at ninety.

And it is worth doing. For the
influence not only on yourself but
on those about you is quite won-
dorful.

To begin with. never were
women's clothes better adapted to
coolness than they are today. We
can be clothed in the fashion.
clothed modestly—though the
fashion doesn't require that—end
yet clothed with a minimum of
garments that insures coolness.
A combination foundation gar»
meat of the step-in variety. a com--
bination marmont if stays are
worn—and none. if you wish.
when stays are discarded—an
opaque-skirted frock. shoes and
stockings of light weigh—and
there you are. cool and comfort-
able. But even so, remember that
the color of your frock makes an
impression for or against coolness
on others. White is always good.
Thin black is cool looking. Gray.
which is much worn in summer.
and the equally popular mauve.
is suggestive of coolness. There
are cool shades of blue and green
that are also most attractive for
summer.

So much for yourself. Now your
house. It is no longer the fashion
to keep the windows closed so
that the inner air may be cooler
than the outer air. We have too
much realisation of the value of
fresh air, all the time. even if it
is warm air. But still if you keep
awnings down and shades drawn
against the scorching sun youin
make the house seem cooler. even
if the windows are themselves
open. And if you can crests a

 

' Wt by DWI doors l.“

windows opposite each other. you
will create a further appearance
of coolness. Things moving in the
bass. always suggest 0001.... a
flower in a vase swaying in m.
urging air is grist looking than
I war stand rigid and still in
m air.

 

ILLINERS have found this
M summer that most discern-

ing women have preferred
hats embellished with a few flow-
ers to those with crowns made up
entirely of artificial flowers. and
smarter than either sort of trim-
ming in the estimation of some
women is the hat trimmed with a
single blossom.

In classifying the smart hats
one sees in midsummer. an inter-
esting list might be these hats of
a single flower, and in this classi-
flcatlon- you would find many hats
from the most clever milliners.
This single flower arrangement is
not often attempted by the tyre
in milliner . The woman who
tries to cut expenses by trimming
her own hate is always tempted
to be lavish. And fortunately so.
Only the master craftsman and
the milliner who is an artist as
well can trim a. hat with a single
flower and produce a smart effect.

The hat sketched is of green
straw. the lily of white organdy
bound with a green wire. An-
other interesting example of the
hat trimmed with a single flower
is the rather wide-brimmed poke
reminiscent of the Directoire
mode. trimmed only with a band-
ing of soft silk or ribbon round
the crown and a rose placed at
the right side a little nearer back
than front. Then of course there
is the floppy. garden-party hat
with a single rose with foliage
placed on the brim so that the
rose comes at the edge. weighing
down the hat. Sometimes this
single rose spray is placed so that
it actually droops off the hat,
hanging down almost to the
shoulder. 4

Two interesting things in mid-
summer hat fashions you may
have noticed—the halo-hat. built
without a crown. for the sake of
ecolness. ostensibly. Another de-
parture from the normal in mid-
summer hat fashions is the use of
the wide-brimmed felt hat. The
wide brim is chosen as a protec-
tion against the sun. It seems
absurd—doesn't it? Yet women
who have been wearing the new
light weight felt hats for summer
insist that they are not perceptibly
warmer than many silk or straw
hats designed for summer. and
they have so many advantages in

the pure white felt hat this sum-
mer that you may have diflioulty
in getting one at all—for the rail-
liners assure us that the demand
has been so great that manufac-
turers have used up their supply
of the white fur needed to make
these white felt hats.

ONE women solve the problem
5 of appropriate hats for motor-
ing by wearing no’ hats at all.
But few women have their hair
so flrmly‘ netted down to their
scalps that they can go quite bare-
hoaded. And for them the Susanne
Innglen bandeau makes strong
appeal. It. proves itself eminently
serviceable and it seem to many
who adopt. it to be eminently
smart.

Here in America we call it the
Susanne Ilenglen bandeau and
have ever since the French tennis
champion flrst made her first
hysterical appearance in this coun-
try. In France, neither Suzanne
nor any other tennis player is
given credit with having origi-
nated it. When much women

asm for things Amos-1m. they do-

WHEN cucs're SMOKE.

OWADAYS the host or hostess
who entertains friends for din-
ncr must usually think of

smokes as well as of food. That is
if yOu have guests who smoke and
you have established no rule in your
house against smoking. Don't ex-
pect them to bring their own
smokes. Don't expect one man
among your guests to supply your
other guests with cigars or cigar-
often.

A reader has written in to state
her problem. She is a woman
passed middle age. but married.
She is in the habit of giving little
dinner parties for intimate friequ
of hero—men and women. The men
smoke. She wishes to know whether
she should have cigarettes and
cigars to pass after dinner. She
seems to feel that it might be a
little indelioate for a woman to have
smokers’ supplies in hen possession.
There is really no mason why she
should feel this way. and there is
no good reason why a hoste- should
aot provide cigars and cigarettes as
a hoot

All people do not like to make
the some brand of cigarettes or
cigars. What then shall a host do
about this? Some merely dispense
their own particular brand no mat-
tc what. the taste of their guests
may be. It would be possibly more
considerate to have a second choice
so as to suit the taste of more of
your gum

to go with the general color scheme

are often used. The considerate‘

current began to carry her

canoe faster toward the rubidi-
She struggled in vain to turn it
toward the shoal water.

Then'a lithe young fellow had
leaped into the skill that was hidden
among the overhanging elders. and
with vigorous strokes was making
his way toward her. In a few mo-
ments he had grasped the edge of
the canoe with his hand. and after a
brief struggle he had drawn Elsie
to the bank. where she promptly
fainted. or, at least. did her best to.

That was the beginning of the
summer's romance. Elsie was stay-
ing with a girl friend from the ofllco
at the little North Woods hotel.
May was all interest when she
learned that the two met every dos“.

“He’s such a good-looking young
man." she said. "Oh. Elsie. I should
like nothing better than’ to marry a
man like that and share his cabin in
the woods. even if he is half-
Indian."

"Nonsense. May." answered Elsie.
"He's only an eighth Indian; any-
way, he told me so. Blt that's not
the point. Who's going to give up
New York to share a squatter‘s
cabin and have a brood of greasy
kids running about one? Brri"
Elsie shivered.

"But. Elsie.
you loved him."

"Oh. love!" said Elsie. "It's Just
a summer flirtation. that's all."

May sighed. for she was romantic.
She hated to think of Elsie making
a fool of the young fellow. who was
evidently desperately in love with
her. He called every day with little
offerings—a pair of pnrtridges. or
some trout; and once he brought a
basket woven of sweet-smelling
grasses. Indian fashion.

Two miles down the lake was the
clubhouse. He was acting as guide.
they discovered. to the millionaire.
Ephrah Rogers. who came there
every year to fish. Ephrah was a
widower of fifty. and well pre-
served. '

“Oh. May. it only I could scrape
acquaintance with Mr. Rogers!" said
Elsie.

"Oh. Elsie. how can you be so
heartless!” May answered.

And yet the apparently impossi-
ble did eventunte. for one day the
girls came face to face with Ephrah

ELSIE uttered a little cry as the

Rogers on the trail. accompanied by

his guide. and he stopped and spoke
to them. He ended by inviting
them to the camp for dinner.

May noticed how Elsie seemed to
forget all about poor Jean that eve-
ning. laying herself out to captivate
the millionaire. Jean sat by. dis-
consolate.

And Ephrah responded so evi-
dently to Elsie's approaches that it
was easy to see the g‘lrl'a dream
had reasonable prospects of coming
true. After that Ephrah and Elsie
were constantly together, and Jean
seemed forgotten.

"May. I do believe he's going to
propose to me." said Elsie jubilantl'
one evening. "He has been tellin.
me all about his home and his fam-
ily. and if that isn't a sign. what is?"

" as he any children '3"

One son. just out of college."

May said nothing, but she noticed
that Jenn never appeared with any
little offerings now.

And en. two or three evening.
before t e date fixed for the girl!
departure, May witnessed a painful
scene between Elsie and Jean.

She had been walking along the
trail. and stopped. hearing their
voices.

"'1‘th you never cared?“ Jean
asked.

"My dear boy. of course I cared in
a way. But one has to be practical.
I am not going to give up New York
in order to share a cabin with you
in these woods."

"If I go to New York and flt my-
self for you." pleaded Jean.

"Oh, forget it. It can‘t be done.‘
Elsie answered. "And how long do
you think I'm going to wait, any-
way?"

Jean hunched his shoulders and
turned away. May went homo
softly and never told Elsie she had
heard. .

It was two days later that Ephrah
waved to them cheerfully from the
shore. where he sat fishing.

"We're leaving for New York to.
morrow. girls!" he called. "Guess
we‘ll meet again some day."

A cold chill crept to Elsie's heart.

"I don't know what we‘d have
done without your company. young
ladies." Ephrah continued. "I guess
my boy and I pretty nearly lost our
hearts to you.“

“Your boy?" gasped Elsie.

"My son. John. Here he comes!
“'hat. can't you stay? Maybe we'll
see you again before you 80. then.“
