Popularity.
ON FEELING A BIT OF
A DOG.
"How did you get on?" a very young girl was asked, on return- ing from her first grown-up visit. was awfully popular," the naivo maiden answered, with the erudity of early youth, "I pretend- ed that I thought all the men were terrible dogs, and they just lapped it up and loved it."
There is no doubt that the young
| woman had stumbled upon a xuro means to popularity. For there is nothing more deliciously flatter- | ing to the average man than the assumption that there lurks within him the spirit of doggishness.
The extreme young
of the specion loves to broadcast the effect that, my word, he could be a dog if he liked!
The blameless old gentleman chortler gleefully when rakish motives are imputed to his inno- eent actions.
The most
Rolidly contented Benedict, who has eyes only for his own wife, perks up and looka waggish when it ja insinuated that appearances are deceptive.
Men of all ages respond delight- edly to the female companion who convays by more subtle menns that she recognises the talent propen- sily for doggishness that lies
beneath the correct exterior.
I remember the great popularity of a woman whose often expressed opinion of men was summed up in the ejaculation, "My dear! aren't men devils!" What man could pos-
Wool georgette in a lovely pale grecu shade is an ideal fabric in which to express the youthful frock sketched here. The senlloped edges

Use for old Curtains.
PROTECTIVE COVERS FOR
DRESSES.
No matter how old and faded your cretonno curtains may be when finally replaced by new ones, they may still prove use- ful in a différent role.
Wash and iron them, lay ench pair at on the table-one cur- tain on the other-and measure them against the length of your best suit on your most cherished froek, as the case may be. Cut to the required. length, leaving enough matèrinl over at the top being careful to have sufficient to make a generous casing and
length entirely to cover the gar ment, Join the two curtains to- gether up the sides, turn in a wide hem at the top and make Lá easing for strong ribbon or braid. The hem at the bottom is already made, so no more re- mains to be done except to thread the ribbon through the casing Sp a suit or a frock into each cover, draw up the ribbon so that the whole is shrouded and only the hanger remains outside-and you may keep your clothes quite safely in an ordinary cupboard if wardrobe space be limited.
sibly resist a woman who had such a finttering idea of his нex?
The Superior Attitude.
And yet does a superior atli-i lude on the subject quito beconie ue after all? Don't wo fall to an accusation of diablerie almost as ensily as men do? Don't we, in truth, purr as loudly as they when we are stroked, what ought to be, but somehow isn't, the wrong, way? It takes a really strong-minded female to hear unmoved that aho is dangerous.” Such a back handed compliment has been known to have surprising results.

The silly old saying that "Every woman is at heart a rake" is rarely Intended, or taken, as an Insult. On the contrary, it is far more appreciated than compliments of the "ministering angel" order.
And, would many of us really rejoles in the thought that "Here lies a Virtuous Woman" would be our epitaph? Good Heavens! No! "The world's Worst Woman" would annoy us less than that.
In short, in most of us, men and women alike, we find this strange contradiction. The wish to preserve, together with the highest standards of conduct and the most crystal-clear conscience, the exciting, delicious, feeling of being a bit of a dog.ELIZABETH THORN. In Exchangt,

with bare legs?
It is quite a simple feminine question, and yet there are so many varied opinions about it that I as a mere man, hesitate to rushi in where angels fear to trend, ·
To my way of thinking it is pure- ly matter of taste. Personally, I think that legs covered with silk stockings look after than bare legė. But it must be admitted that ilesh-coloured "silk stockings are so much like what they are in- 'tended to be-flesh colour—that it is often dificult to distinguish whether a woman has stockings on or not.
That happened" at Paris when Miss Wills and her partner were playing together. In the Press box wo differed. Some said, they were wearing stockings and some anid they were not, and. It was not till they crossed over to our skle of the court that we knew Mies Wills was not woaring stockings.
I believe that it is a question for the individual to decide. We might as well ban baro arms no bare legs.
