fashion. For some reason or other
anything made of or contaning
elephant'a hair is regarded as a
bringer of good luck and various
pieces of jewelry and little mas-
cots to be carried in the purse or
pocket are made containing what
is said to be true elephant hair.
The fact is that elephants in any
form are regarded as good luck
and for this reasom many persons
have taken as their little talisman
small elephants that can be car-
ried in the pocket or purse or
hung about the neck. _.

Pigs and. black cats are other
animals that are regarded as quite
appropriate for mascots and the
shops bear witness to the fact that
there is a demand for these little
mascots. Though the feeling is
widespread among really upersti-
tious people that peace feathers
and opals brim: bad luck there
are to be found brave individuals
who adopt one or the other of
these things as their mascots. in-
sisting that for them the peacock
feather or opal never fails to bring
good luck. Some persons have
special little motor mascots—~some
times the figure at one's patron
saint.

The interesting thing. however,
is that soup that has its beginning
in one of those famous stock—pots

Play up to each other.

How often have I longed to kick
husbands and wives when in com-
pany who have gone out of their
way to make each other look ridic-
alone.

You husband may be a bit of a
born. but don‘t let others see you
know it.

Your wife may tell tarradiddlea.
but it is no part of your contract. to
call her down in front of her friends.

Keep your fault-findinga. your
criticisms, 'your ridicule and your
cattinesa for your funny heart): if
you must indulge in them.

There is no person I hate more
than the one who tells me to my
face what sort of a. poor fish I am.
and is all the better pleased when
my friends are present to hear name.

After all. most of us come into
the world with a. pretty big conceit
of ourselves. This. I think. is in-
disputnble. And we cherish beat
those who play up to us and help
us to keep our. good opinions.

And it's all very bunnies: and
natural that we should instinctively
cling to those who never let us
down. but. on the contrary. never
miss an opportunity of a little gen-
tle boosting.

to play the part of door-mat and
slave of on ungrateful husband.
But put these ladies out into the
world to stand alone and they'd keep
any berth they were lucky to get

Perhaps their husbands know it.
Which explains their quiet pa-
tience'.

A little humility of the right sort
is an excellent love-gingerer.

This should be the joint matri-
monial motto.

the inward cry of most of us.

PEARL.

HE pearl. which is today's mie-
manic gem, is the 50.01 of
youthful purity. according to

the ancient Orientals. While its
wearer is said to be gifted with en-
treme charm and to be lrreaistnble
to the opposite sex. she is likely to
beposeeaedofacoolneesandpolse
which will nip many an affair in the

Roman mythology assigns the
emerald as today's stone. Though
the emornld belongs to Venue. by
some queer contradiction it is an
enemy to sentinient. \lt bestows
upon those whose birth anniversary
it is extraordinary clearness of

White. a symbol of purity. is the
color to ‘be used today. according to
the‘nnclent mystics. It preserves
the harmony of which the pearl and
the emerald are the two leading
factors. -

How to Make 2
a pehade

VERY interesting new lamp—

A shade for the woman with
clever fingers to make is this:

First cover the lampshade frame
,with chine. silk, in rose or old gold

or one of the other shades that are
used for lining shades. in. order to -*

throw a. becoming color on the face.

Then mtch over the frame a
properly cut piece of glazed chintxt
with a pattern as vivid and gay as
you wish. The point is to use the
heavily glazed chintz. It comes in
lovely colors and excellent designs.
so it is just a matter of choosing
to get the right. combination for
your own tastes.

Then cover the shade with a
slightly gnthered notion of mar—
quessette in 'golden yellow or deep
rose.

That is all. The giant! ohintx
gives much the effect of wall deco-
rated parchment. The result is good
and the work of making ouch ‘a.
shade is not too difficult.
