Fiction and Reality.
It is a simple truth to say that many
things happen in fiction which would
be quite, impossible in fact, as any
censor knows. It is in failing to dis
tinguish between, these two that many
artists and most critics blunder and
this error is in effect the same as that
of the ambitious actor who, having
once to play the" part, for " the first
time, of an intoxicated' ruffian in a
certain melodrama, went to a neigh
boring tavern and intoxicated himself,
He thought that this would storm the
house, but on the contrary he was im
mediately fired by the management
for a fool and rightly. F. H. Martin,

"Then 'luscious bivalve,' no doubt,
refers to the oyster cocktail."

CHILDREN SHOWED IT
Effect of Their Warm Drink In the
Morning.
! "A year ago I was a wreck from cof
fee drinking and was oh the point of
giving up my position in the school
room because of nervousness.
"I was telling a friend about it and
she said, 'We drink nothing at meal
tlmo hiit Print n m and It is such a COm-
f ort to have something we can enjoy
drinking with the children.
"I was astonished that she would
allow the children to drink any kind
of coffee, but she said Postum was
not coffee, but a most healthful drink
for children as well as for older ones,
and that the condition of both the chil
dren and adults showed that to be a
fact
"I was in despair and determined
to give Postum a trial, following the
directions carefully. It was a decided
success and I was completely won by
its rich delicious flavor.
"In a short time I noticed a decided
improvement in my condition and kept
erowine better month after montn,
until now I am healthy, and do my
work in the school room with ease and
pleasure. I would not return to nerve-
destrdyine coffee for any money.

Both kinds are equally delicious and

The street costumes are cleverly
shaped, comfortable, and clean cut.
Their tailoring is a thing of faultless
beauty. Skirts are short and just
wide and flaring enough for comfort
in walking and for style. Jackets and
coats are easy and smart, improving
the figure which wears them properly.
One may bave a choice as to length,
as they are shown in both long and
short models.
Materials are durable, old favorites
.being to the fore in the smartest
garments. Decorations are few and
elegant, buttons and straps and the
introduction of outside pockets pro
viding most off them. But- it is In
amazing cleverness in cutting both
skirts and coats that this season has
distinguished itself above others.

The Motor
THE motor bonnet of silk continues
to stand at the head of the list as
the most practical of things designed
for the headwear of autoists. From
the standpoint of comfort, service, low
cost, becomingness, and the ease with
which it can be made, the silk motor
bonnet has no rival possessing all of
its advantages.
There are, however, many bonnets
that combine the soft millinery braids,
like those of hemp or silk fiber, with
silk in their construction, that are
just as durable and becoming. By
means of the braid the element of
novelty In design enters into their
composition, but they are less simple
to make than the silk bonnets- The
latter will not tax the ingenuity of
the home milliner at all.
. Taffeta silk is the most satisfactory
weave to use. Its body gives the bon
net a chance to remain shapely; it
sheds the dust easily and it is made
in most appropriate and pleasing col
ors. Patterns by which to cut tha
body of bonnets aro furnished by any
of the standard pattern companies.
Usually only about a yard of taffeta
and a small strip of crinoline are
needed, except when plaitings of the
silk gfe used for trimming. An extra
allowance must be made for this. Ma
chine stitching, with silk thread, helps
out in the finish and decoration of the
all-silk bonnets.
The veil, of washable chiffon holds
its own with the silk bonnet as the
best friend of the motorist. . Chiffon
veils are so essential that they form
a part of the' design in most bonnets
and are always reckoned with, either
as a part of the decoration or an ac
cessory. -
pie, but made of the airiest fabrics
over satin foundations. Bodices are
inodestly high, and satin bindings are
used to finish the flounces and over-
dresses of net or crepe or chiffon.
Wilil all tnis fluffiness there is a lit-
tie touch of the austere in the bodice
usually.
In the picture given 1iere a street
suit of swell shepherd's plaid is
shown. Plaits at the sides of both
front and back produce slightly flar
ing panels, the skirt being made up
of four of these.
.The jacket opens in a "V" at the
front, with revers terminating at the
bust line and an inlay of velvet which
is carried to the high turnover col
lar. A strap at each side of the back is
finished with a simulated buttonhole
and set, with a lone button, to the
narrow, shaped belt which defines the
slightly high waist line, j - The cuffs
are odd, with the sleeve turned back
from a band of velvet and fastened
down with ;a button. The front of
the jacket Is almost straight, and cut
with a dip.
Bonnet of Silk
Several special kinds of hats appear
among the spring showings of motor
headwear, among them exquisite cro
cheted hats of silk fiber braid, and
patent leather hats. The last are
wholly rainproof. But the crocheted
hats, and silk bonnets like those pic
tured here, are not much damaged by
rain. When the silk bonnet has
served its day it can be replaced for
so little money and is altogether so at
tractive that it is likely to remain a
favorite.

Velvets for Little Girls.
Girls from twelve to sixteen are tol
lowing the example of their elders for
afternoon in the wearing of velvet
frocks. These usually have over-
blouses or long-waisted effects, with
the top skirt of velvet and the short
underskirt of satin or plaited chiffon.
A collar of real lace and a satin belt
or sash completes a very smart little
costume which can be worn without a
coat as warmer weather approaches.
Rice in Pincushion.
Rice makes an excellent filling for
a pincushion. Take a yard of five-
inch dresden ribbon, double and sew
Into a bag, stitching a quarter of an
inch back from the edge along the
sides; to leave for a finish. Fill it
snnelv with rice grains and you will
findf it keep its place; even heavy
hatpins do not turn it over.
Soiled White Inexcusable.
Clean white will cover a multitude of
faults in style and material, but soiled
white on a .woman is quite as inexcus
able as on a man.
The Shot That Missed.
In controversy it is better to be in
tellectually honest than to be consis

In an ecclesiastical discussion that
occurred at one of the general assem
blies of the Presbyterian church in th
United States Doctor Krebs was press
ing his antagonist, Doctor Bracking
ridge, hard with his authorities, and at;
last, as the New York Times relates,
came down on him with this: "And
now I will proceed to quote Breckin
ridge against Breckinridge."
Without rising from his seat, Doctor
Breckinridge instantly retorted. "And
you could not possibly cite an author
ity that would have less weight with
me!"
