but twice, and then only for a

he sent word to me from his of

J. P. Morgan figured that ev
ery hour of his time was worth
91,0000, and he had no patience
with men who were late for ap
pointments, or who, when they
came to see him, did not give
him his money's worth in ex
change for the time they took.
"It is not necessary for me to
live," said Pompey, "But it is
necessary that I be at a certain
point at a certain time."
And Lord Nelson said: "I owe
all my success in life to having
been a quarter of an hour before
my time."
I hold up the record of these
famous men, in the faint hope
that it may do some good.
And vet. the. hope is very
faint. The habit of unprompt
ness is very tenacious.

The return to fashion of the
separate skirt should be cause
of satisfaction to women who
have to make the most of a slim
allowance. I do not mean to in
dicate that a good looking sepa
rate ekirt and a separate blouse
may be bought or made at home
for any less than an equally good
looking one-piece dress. But it
is trtie that one good looking
ready-made skirt may be worn
with two home-made blouses to
fill need* in the wardrobe at a
surprisingly small outlay. Or
one may make the skirt and buy
the blouses, if that seems a more
satisfactory arrangement. Then
there are advantages to the wo
man who has difficulty in get
ting satisfactorily proportioned
one-piece dresses—the woman
whose hips are disproportionate
ly large or small.
In lieu of a jacket suit for
late winter or spring wear there
are all sorts of way 8 of combin
ing the separate skirt with a
separate jacket of some sort, at
reasonable cost. One may com
bine a tweed skirt with hip
length leather coat for cool days
or for sports wear, and the same
skirt may be worn with a Jersey
cardigan when a lighter weight
wrap is desired.
In an
orange colored Jersey blouse was
[chosen to wear with this skirt,
I separate: brown tweed ekirt,
thowing the new hip yoke and
flaring gores. (
