CLOTHES---AND THE
WOMAN.
Speaking generally, there are two kinds of women: those with tidy minds and those whose minds are not su tidy.
The woman with a tidy mind is clear headed and dependable. She keeps her appointments, and she keeps her accounts. She is the kind of woman who writes all the things that one should write. on the stub, of a cheque book, and she can read her pass-book intelli- gently and actually understand at a glance what is credit and what is debit.

Her clothes are almost always rather drab and uninspiring.
Curiously enough, the best-dress- ed women in this wicked world are usually the ones who are inclined to be a little absent-minded about their appointments, and, charming though they may be, punctuality cannot be numbered among their virtues. They are also apt to let their accounts take care of them- selves. There should be a moral in all this, but somehow it seems to have gone astray.
