overwhelming heat one feels immei-
ately after drinking. Others prescribe
baths, the very performance OF which IS
heating. | am convinced that the only
way TO preserve ones peace OF mind,
and consequent GOODNESS in the humid
DAYS, is to retire TO some spot where
fashions are an unknown quantity; dis
pense with all unnecessary garments;
stretch ones self on cool mating or
other outspread hammock, strung under
heavy branches, and there look up
through the leaves and dream the days
away. And, even then, II you should
make a hasty, incautious movement,
you would find yourself growing warm
over il.
And yet | have great many mate
rails TO tell you of-warranted to with
stand all the onslaughts Of King Sol.
went TO a great shop yesterday where
carriages stood about the doors and
asked about the white craze. 1T is not
nearly so general as it was last summer
and summer before" was told me.
There is a great demand for the pin
head dotted linens, but that Is all, for
the most part, except where the white
ducks are made up. The duck suitings
in white are more OF a favOrite than
ever.
Then they showed me some OF the
Swiss gowns-aIl simple and lovely.
One OF the skirts had two rullles at the
bottom, each edged with delicate lace;
and, Just above, a plain band OF the
Swiss was edged top and bottom with
the lace. The bodice was mass OF
pretty, : fine rutlleS, each lace.edged,
three around the shoulders and bust,
and continuing down each sleeve to the
finish. Yellow ribbons, In the new
nacre MORE, encircle the waist, and
bands which started therefrom, al each
hip, met in point on the skirt, with
choux a. the ends.
Another had dainty, pointed apron
front, falling over the plain skirt, and
it was edged with very deep Valen-
ciennes lace. Full epaulettes OF the
lace fell over the shoulders, with trim
ming OF flying ends Of pink moire
added. A twist OF the ribbon made
collar and belt, and there were bows on
the sleeves. The bodice was a finely
plated one.
Then | looked at thin materials.
There was Bsdouin cloth OF light weight
and much like French cambria, In pretty
stripes for seventeen cents yard. 1t
is quite wide, and makes neat, service
able dress that will launder well.
There were cotton crepons, sheer and
heat.repelIing, one would say, 10 plain
colors and in soft designs. CrepOns are
much cheaper now than they were earl
Ter in the season. Some beautiful pat
terms are only twenty cents yard, and
some Of the very fines are forty-fye.
Those stitched to give tuck-effect are
popular.
There is also a lappet cloth, which is
only another name for dotted Swiss
called lappet when delicate flower pat
tern is printed over. These come In
shadowy, dull colors, with the grounds
white, and are very desirable when one
prefers little color in place Of the all
white gown. Swisses aud lappets are
from twenty-five 10 fifty cents yeard.
Other new and dotted muslins have
fine cord running through the material,
giving broad striped effect as well as
a dotted one. These come in pale,
plain colors, pink, blue and heliotroDes,
and are very fresh and cool, made over
silk OF the same tint.
The cotton foulards are so soft and
shining they deceive you into oeliev-
ing them silk. Both patterns and COL
orings are deceptive. Fine diagonal
stripes, shading from pale brick into
rich deep red, and suspicion OF black.
to tone il down, are spsckled with
fantastic pattern in light brick tints.
Another In dull blue is covered with =
large crescent design. The cH''2n fou-
lards cost twenty CERT
