plain-coloured boleros worn over Scotch plaid dresses. They are, of course, very short, so as to reveal the belt of the dress, which mounts very high, well above the waist.

For ample skirts or pleated skirts it is a very appropriate garment, much more becoming, to my way of thinking, than a jacket.

Square or round, long or short sleeved, they are always boleros, Therefore, it is in the fabrics, the colours and the trimming at an infinite variety reigns.

Of course, printed ensembles are numerous. The dressmakers, considerably helped by the fabric manufacturers, who have made really marvellous stuffs this season, have been able to proilt by the design of the material, and even its coloured edge, to border the baleros in a charming way.

Thus one often sees a dress printed in blue mid white accompanied by a bolero printed in red and white outlined with the stuff of the dress. And if it is not an encrusted band. It is the stuff that is specially printed for this purpose.

Fashion Insists, ns you know, on n wasp walat this season, and your waist must be slender to wear H bolero with chic.

Furthermore, in my opinion, boleros are for the small or medium-sized woman, for big women, and very tall. women, Juckets are much more suit- nble.

Try n'dlet of making excuses for other people. Instead of working yourself up into a rage because your train is four minutes late, thinks of the hundred- and-one little things that might be delaying it.

Instead of scowling at the ofee- boy when he brings you cake instead of biscuits, consider that he would probably be in your place if he had fad half your education. And when you feel that you have been handl- enpped throughout your career by lack of capital, think of the millions of people who balance their weekly budgets by a sixpenco.

There are a hundred other mental allments, from fits of irritability to ∙nts of depression, that can be cured by a diet. You may be one of those happy people who have learned early the wisdom of moderation in mental indulgence, and need no diet.
