WASHINGTON MEMORIAL FOR FRANCE
To Be Presented by the Daughters of the
American Revolution at the Paris
Exposition of 1900.

remain handsome and valuable. ana IN
its ornamentation there would be room
for symbolic work; of course the arms
Oh france and America and the seal OF
the society would appear on it. An
other suggestion is a painting. 1t seems
to me that there must be some Ameri-
can artist who could paint a canvas
worthy the occasion for the sum that
we should give. At present, however,
1 cannot call to mind any painting that
would be entirely suitable One of the
many portraits of Lafayette would be
too restricted,-there are so many 9TH
ers whom we desire to honor also.
Probably, If picture is decided on, its
character will be symbolic.
1t seems peculiarly appropriate that
this memorial should be presented by
us at the time when General Horace
Porter is our Ambassador to France.
He was for long time President of the
Society of the Sons of the Revolution,
and was always our most interested
and helpful friend"
One of the members of Mrs. McLean's
chapter most interested in this move
ment is Mrs. r. Ogden Doremus, the
Honorary Vice-Pret dent of the Nation
al Society. Mrs. Doremus was Regent
of the New York City Chapter for the
years of 1891 and 92. Another of Mrs.
McLean's co-workers is Mrs. s. E..
Holden Fairman, who has won national
fame by her work in the erection of q
monument to Mary, the mother Of
Washington.

HAS HER OWN ROOF GARDEN.
Society Woman Who Entertains HI
Friends in a Real "Sky Parlor."

"If you won't go to the roof garden
make the roof garden come to YOU"
That is what one New York society
woman said; and now she has her own
little individual roof garden perched
up on top of the southern wing of her
town house. where gracious breezes
come drifting across from river and
sea, and aid the big punch bowl mate
rally in it's efforts to make the roof
garden guests forget that there is a
huge city, parched and sweating, below.
The society woman's private roof gar
den is not so brilliant and dazzling as
the big public ones she does not care
to patronize. 1t does not bloom with so
many feverish bulbs of colored lights,
but it is daintier. more inviting, and
cooler than the others, and it possesses
the additional charm that it's mistress
may choose her own guests and her
own talent"
This is the second season of the lit
tie individual roof garden. Last year
Its owner and manager, who in winter
time lives in big brownstone house in
the most aristocratic quarter. heard her
masculine friends and relatives sing the
praises of the roof gardens so frequent
ly that she decided to investigate. The
garden scheme itself impressed her fa-
vorably. but its environment was a
trif1e too boisterous; so she decided to
improve upon it and have one to suit
herself
At the rear Of her house large wing
has been added. which extends nearly
through the block and reaches to the
third story. On two sides it is inclosed
by the walls Of adjoining buildings, but
the other two sides are unobstructed
and give fair play for all the zephyrs
that may be lowering in the neighbor-
hood. 1t was upon the roof of the wing
that the future manager decided to
build her roof garden. Work was be-
gun on it WITHOUT delay. First a door
way was cut through from a sleeping
room, which faced upo. It. The door

as these strike at the keynote of fashion
by grasping the essentials and mould
| ing them according to individual tastes
and with the restrictions Of old or cheap
materials, leaving the side issues entire
ly out of the question. The roof garden
girl is usually one of these. She Is as a
general rule one of the women who earn
their own, and perhaps somebody's
else, living, and she hasn't much cash
| for clothes. A few fashionable young
ladies run up from the near by summer
resorts to get little variety from the
monotonous hop and hammock which
are the night and day recreations of
many summer girls. Such as these wear
pretty. thin dresses, not elaborate. but
rather striking. One sun-browned dam
| sci from the beach wore one of those
dark blue and white challies that looks
SO much like the figured foulard which
one sees frequently on the streets in
combination with light green. This dress
was trimmed with valenciennes lace
and rufties. Over the shoulders were
two narrow and very full ruffles Of
white satin. The belt was white satin
and from it there hung at the back two
streamers Of white satin, edged all
around with narrow lace. The belt also
per side. At the back Of the neck was
a full pleating of white.
| Coral pink is one of the favorite tints
of these occasional summer garden
girls. 1t combines nicely with the dark
blue figured with white and also with
cream or fawn color. I saw several
pink yokes at the garden last night
some Of which had strips of cream lace
| inS Sertion q trimming
| Purple silk and linen is a new COM
bination of colors which Is growing
popular. 1t Is not surprising that pur-
pie and fine linen should be combined
in the feminine costume since it GER
tainly has scriptural foundation, but
it seems never to have been tried in
the case of coarse linens until this sea-
| son.
| Picture hats at the summer garden
have spreading plumes and Haunting
aigrettes, but they look very much out
of place and should be discouraged.
The roof garden is the busy mans SUBJ
stitute for the country picnic and fash
ionable women should not be permitted
to invade it with conventionality and
spoil the only recreation in which he
can indulge.

, was concealed behind a light portiere
of bamboo, a tiny lantern was swung
from the easement, and the approach
to the garden was complete.
Next a railing was built around the
two exposed sides, and a light canvas
awning in red and white stripes stretch
ed from the roof of the adjoining house
and supported by bamboo poles at the
corners. A Japanese mating of Orient
al pattern was used to hide the tin
roof, and over it were scattered rich
rugs from the drawing room below.
The ralings were hidden behind rows
of palms and plants, and in and around
them were swung as many quaint old
lanterns as could be found in search
through Chinatown. Underneath the
awning. suspended from wire strings.
more Chinese lanterns and fairy lamps
were hung, and under them were swung
hammocks. draped with Bagdad rugs;
in the cool secluded corners were plac-
ed steamer chairs. covered with rare
stuff that the roof garden manager
had picked UP abroad. The other fur
nture consisted of bamboo divans,
where the guests might lazily flop down
and congratulate themselves that they
were there.
Pretty little tabourets, which might
serve either as tea tables or for pipes
and cigars, were brought out, and the
whole was set off with big. cool punch
bowl in the centre.
When the private roof garden was
formally opened the neighbors marvel
ed much. The top of the sombre old
wing. instead of losing itself in the
darkness. was transformed into
dainty tea house in miniature. where
lanterns blnked and waved invitingly
and the jingle of the banjo was heard.
From the first the roof garden was
great success. Its manager made a
"hit" with it, and an invitation to
drop up for an evening was one Of
the things sought for by the poor city
toilers who were compelled to remain
in town. When the hostess closed her

OUTDOOR FURNITURE.
Comforts for the Summer Sojourner at
Beach and Mountain Resorts.

| The designer of summer conveniences
is gradually discovering the wants Of
| those people who leave well furnished
homes in the city to find cool breezes
and little else at lodge in some vast
| wilderness to which the comforts Of life
have not yet penetrated. A few enter
prising farmers who expect to keep
summer boarders every year have the
foresight to fit up their premises in in
viting shape, but such landlords are in
the minority, and in any case each
boarder likes to have his own hammock
or his own swinging chair in which to
take it easy in the open air.
| For family use, however, there are
great many attractive devices for use
out of doors. One of the inventions this
year is an awning that goes up like an
umbrella on a thick stick that stands
up through the center of small cir
cular table. This is a very convenient
affair to have on the lawn where lem
onade and ice-cream may be served to
ones friends on a hot summer after
noon. Indeed, the whole thing can be
folded up and carried on the provision
wagon to a picnic if one cared to take
the trouble. Smaller umbrella awnings,
such as artists use when sketching. are
now made in dark colors and used by
ordinary folks at the beach.
Rattan beach chairs that are cross
between a sedan chair and sunbonnet
are designed for invalids and others
who enjoy breathing fresh air but can
not endure draughts or hot sun. They
have a comfortable seat with foot
rest, and little shelves project on each
side to hold ones book or the bit Of
fancy work. Tiny openings like car
| riage windows are made on each side,
and are rather left open or closed with
glass, according to preference. These
sell for from eighteen to twenty-four
dollars, but they never wear out, and
are not injured by rain.
Everybody who goes to the beach
| should be provided with one or two lit
| tie cushions covered with mating.
They can be bought for twenty-five
cents and are very light in weight.
Rattan contrivances for children-not
| the old-fashioned school-master's fa-
vorite-are the latest novelties on the
market. The little "go-carts" are SUI
perseding the high cumbersome baby
carriage. A convenient arrangement
has a compartment for carrying toys or
other things back to the seat. OF

house and went to her country place
in WestcEester, the decorations and
appointments of the roof garden were
not disturbed. Additional storm avn
ings were put up to shelter them from
the rain, and when the manager re-
turned to the city for days shopping,
the roof garden could be opened at an
hours notice. There she invited her
friends to come and spend the evening,
and any especially good artist who hap
pened to be doing the roof was called
in to "do" the private one. All in all,
the guests found the entertainment
quite as satisfactory as at the regular
playhouses.
Since opening her garden, great

addition has been made in a collection
Of posters plastered over the bare walls
of the adjoining houses. This collection
is one of the best in New York and
includes specimens by nearly all the re-
nowned poster artists. Between the
windows of the back wall, shields and
armor have been placed; and this roof
