STYLISH HATS FOR SUMMER.
Flowers Are Popular, But Wings Are the
Feature of the New Millinery.

Flowers Are Popular, But Wings Are the
Feature of the New Millinery.
The first thing to strike one on glanc-
ing at the summer hats and bonnets is
the extraordinary amount of trimming
they all carry. Hats are miniature
flower beds. Flowers have rained, nay,
poured, down upon the millinery world.
They have landed on everything in the
way of headgear. Often, too, they have
landed with more force than discrimi-
nation by coming, evidently to stay, in
three or four sorts upon one small bon
net.
bonnets are small. They certainly are

which keep the seasons bonnet from
being altogether invisible, by reason of
it's size. A small bonnet recently seen
was made entirely of jet sequins,
and not very many of them either.
But it had in front wing bows of
frosted jet and cream guipure. ietted
osprey with some cut jet spikes and
stars, and toward the back a cluster of
rose geraniums, with some sprays trail

but no top, and through the aperture
thus formed nod yellow roses and two
ends of a bow of chiffon contrasting
with the gold band of the crown and
the little rolling chiffon-covered brim.
For such bonnets the hair needs to be
dressed high. Bonnets which use the
hair as the only crown in the stvle of
the coronet ribbon hats are to be much
used. A bonnet of this sort is formed
entirely of wings. set at different
angles with two pink roses in front as
the only trimming.
Roses, with other things, appear on
nearly every hat. One of the few ex-
ceptions seen in a swell milliner's is a
large hat of Tuscan chip with a lace
lined brim. A big, green, satin rosette,
holding sprays of lilacs with foliage,

The only exceptions to the rule of
flowers are those novelties which have
hardly yet found their way in the shop
windows. They are hats smothered in
tulle, with pair of wings on either
side, or couple of birds, by way of or

ELEGANCE OF SPEECH.
High-Flown Terms Affected by Ambition
Young Girls.

High-Flown Terms Affected by Ambitious
Young Girls.
Young girls who are ambitious to ap-
pear cultured, and to excel in elegance
of speech, are often in danger of losing
just the quality they would gain by
avoiding many Of the simple express
sions in everyday use.
Most of our familiar forms of speech
are proved good by long and constant
use, and are so entirely unaffected and
direct that any evidently intentional
avoidance of them seems stilted and in
bad taste. The girl who, for instance
scorns to employ so common an expros-
sion as ''go to bed" and always an
nounce herself as discreetly retiring, :"
has not only sacrificed somewhat
of directness and accuracy, but
has also failed to attain the
good form for which she has
striven. AS a matter of truth, one ''re-
tires when she leaves the family circle
and goes to her own room. She NAV
spend the entire night there and not
''go to bed" She who ''retires' at bed
time, as matter of course, rises" in
the morning. She could not by any
chance do anything SO utterly common
place as ''get up"
She purchases the articles people
ordinarily buys" and condescends to
reside in the street or town where
her more unpretending neighbors are
pleased contentedly to live"
Her morning stroll, no matter what
its aim or destination, is ''constitu-
tional:" her afternoon nap, a ''siesta. -
She, happy maiden, is never by any
chance ill" or sick" though frequent
ly confessedly ''indisposed."
This young woman of ambitious if
somewhat ''toploftical' diction man
ages by CAREFUL circumlocution to
achieve what no doubt seems to her a
grace of language, but she is at her
best when she gets pen in her hand
Sometimes haste or enthusiasm may
betray her tongue by a shortcut into
simple directness of expression-but
her pen, never.
The rose that she holds in her hand.
and that she has hastily spoken of as
smelling sweet" would be described
upon her written page as Shedding
gracious perfume, 'distilling fra
grance," or perhaps it would even form
the theme for an elaborate and diffuse
rhetorical figure, as unlike the rose in
simple unpretending sweetness and
beauty as the writer's style is unlike
the elegant perfection for which she is

-Cornmeal. the yellow Indian meal
of our pantries, is said to be one of the
best of cosmetics. A jar of it should
be kept on the toilet stand, and after
the face has been washed in really hot
water with pure, unscented soap, the
meal should be rubbed all over it, well
and gently. Then it should be busted
out of the hair and eyebrows, the face
wiped lightly over with a bit of soft

Boiled Beets: Wash the beets care
fully and do not cut off the roots, for
by SO doing the juices escape and the
color is spoiled. Boil them several
hours: the time varies according to the
age and season. When young and
small they require about an hour.
When they are done, pour off the hot
water and cover them with cold water.
Rub off the skin, cut them in rather
thin slices, and season with plenty of
fresh butter salt and pepper, and, if You
like, a tablespoonful or less of vinegar.

A friend tells how her luncheon,
prepared by kind relative for ten
days journey, proved appetizing to the
last. 1t was rather series of lunche-
ons, each meal being separate, wrap
ped in oil-paper. Variety was aimed
at, and no two meals We're alike: and
the one who was to partal1e of the
luncheons did not have the key to the
menus. Each meal was surprise and
a feast. Some of the accessories for
each meal, as sauce, pickles, etc, were
not wrapped but assigned their proper
places in the luncheon box.
-Currant Shrub: Pick thoroughly
ripe currants, not overripe, or the
shrub will have purple color. Strain
through flannel bag or other heavy
strainer cloth. Take pint of currant
juice, add to this some block or granu-
lated sugar, and let it stand in the ice
chest until ready to use. Pour some in
glass and add water to suit the taste
The currant and sugar can stand on
the ice for twenty-four hours, then
make fresh. Red raspberries can be
used in the same way. only add a very
little currant juice to give it character.

II WAS AsIIwORTM's WATCH.

But the Jcwelcr Took Him For sumner
and Marked 1t Wrong.
The close resemblance between Jason
Ashworth and Frsnk Sumner gave rise
to a queer complication few davs ago.
Not long ago Ashworth left his watch
at a jewelers. for repairs, and when he
called to get it the jeweler sworc up and
down that he had never left it there,
Ashworthswore that he had. and pointed
out the watch, hanging on the frame
with score of other timepieces.
That's not your watch" said the wv
eler. THAT one belongs to Frank Sum-
ncr."
Ashworth wanted to fight when the
man stuck to it, but he was told there
was no way to get his watch till he
proved it to be his property and not
that of his double. He spcnt two days
hunting tor Sumner and the two went
together to the jewelcr. Even when they
were both on hand at once the jeweler
could not tell whose watch it was and
Sumner had to take oath that it was not
his property before Ashworth could
obtain the ticker. The jewcler had SIM
plv taken Ashwo,th for Sumner when
the watch was left with him and had
marked the wrong name on the ticket.
