SHOPPING WITH A NOTEBOOK

Felicity Sees Things

(By

Betty R.)

“I’m in such a good temper,” said Felicity. “What shall we do about it?” “Swim?” 1 suggested tentatively. Felicity in a good mood usually requires something more exciting. “Yes and no,” she mused. “I’ve got it! We’ll just hop into the car and go anywhere. And when we come to a nice place we’ll swim and have lunch.” “I’ll have to do a little shopping first,” I put in. “We can do it on the way.” “Yes,” said Felicity. “We have heaps of time! And while you cut the lunch I’ll tell you some rather bright ideas I heard about the town the other day—”

Ask Felicity. A number of Felicity’s readers have been writing to her for inforniation on where to go for this and that.; so she has decided to invite everyone to ask her advice when they are in doubt where to obtain the best service. A’l replies will be found in the form of paragraphs in her column.

Outstanding among the autumn ensembles at Agnes Stimson’s is a coat and frock of pebbly wool in the loveliest shade of black tulip. The frock, beautifully cut, has low placed pleats and bands of stitching in gold thread. The long coat, with its becoming straight lines, has a very decorative collar and soft revers of mole the same shade of black tulip. A ■ very smart turban hat to match has a lighter toned wing stuck through the draped crown. Another choice is a brown outfit —the frock, with godets below the knee, is very smart with its brown-spotted lacquer-red vest and belt, while the full length belted coat has one rever of sable-dyed squirrel and a big bow of the same fur on the opposite shoulder. A brown beret. With a lacquer red quill stuck through the crown, finishes perfectly a most attractive ensemble. — Advt.
