is made with a deep circular lounco, showing
well at the side. where the lace overdress shapes
up in apron form. Some pretty contrast In color

and petunia color are especially pretty with the
fawn and cream. Black ~taffeta, made up with

Lace insertions seem to be used In unlimited
quantities, and whether the material Is silk or
cotton the amount Is as generous In one case as
the other. Some very dressy summer gownB
are made of ecru batiste, sheer and fine, and
light In tint, checked all over the skirt with
lace insertion matching the shade OF ecru, and

%sertions go in stripes around tho skirt from the

court OF Justice DoOley of the Maxwell street
police station to-day caused considerable discus,

such advice constitute crime I"
The point was argued from every side. and the
magistrate finally came to the conclusion that,
although advising a person to commit suicide
by hanging or by any other method Is wrong. it

applique bows.
First in the array of summer gowns illustrated
is a pale seaweed green organdie trimmed with
Transparent insertions OF lace. The yoke is Of
alternate puflngs of the muslin and lace inser-
tions, the sash is OF muslin with lace fnish and
the lining ia of plain green lawn. Another
dress, Of white pique, shows the circular lounce
headed with n row of embroidered insertion.
which also trims the collar and basque frill.
A plain bias band of the pique may also head
the founce and trim tho simple jacket so much
worn in this style of dress. They are made
double or single breasted and fastened with
large pearl buttons.
One of the dainticst piqu6 suits is a plain
white skirt, simply finished with a band. and q
blouse coat with a frill below tho belt of pink
pique prettily braided with white. Nj tho
coats, whether jacket or blouse, have one or two
wide revcrs, and are worn with fancy vests of
lace and tucked or shirrcd organdie. Another
summer gown is Of pale green silk covered with
beige colored checked organdie, trimmed with
rows of Valencicnnes insertion. below which 10

forming a high point at the back. with inter.
laced ends like the front. Stripes of velvet run
around the bodice. A dainty gown shows a lin
Ing of insertions and laco-edged ruches.
One OF the ~prettiest of all the skirt models
for foulard is shown in the sketch. The founda.
tion skirt first has u nve-inch rufie OF the
foulard. and falling over this is a deeper founce,
wide at the sides md narrower in front and at
tho back. This. like tho upper portion of the
skirt. is scalloped on the edge and trimmed
with n frill OF lnch.wide cream lace. above which
arc two tiny frills OF black edging. A scalloped
frill finishes the front of tho waist ovor a vest
of finely tucked white toffeta. Gray and white
striped silk forms another dress. trimmed with
r%uchings Of green chiffon. Tho yoke Is also Uf
the green, with n cluster OF ruchinRs and scarf
ends falling at either side. Bands OF black vel
vet ribbon finish tho bodice. A fancy bodice in
pink chiffon has n band OF pink miroir velvet
studded with crystal cabochons. A model for
u light tafIcta gown is carried out In yellow,
trimmed with clusters of ribbon trills shading
from yellow to brown. Ribbon forms the lower
part Of the bodice, and the yoke and sleeves are

CONSUMERS are sometimes So
~ licited to buy some baking
powder other than Royal because it
costs less.
Does it not occur t the consumer
that if it costs less than Royal it
must be made from inferior materials1
The so-called cheap baking pow
ders are made from alum, phos-
phate or other harsh acid. At most,
they would not lessen the cost of a
cake, loaf of bread or batch of bis
cult more than the fraction of a
cent. But can you afford for any
sum to endanger the healthfulness of
your food by mixing with it a con-
cededly dangerous Ingredient
Royal Baking Powder is made
from cream of tartar derived only
from grapes and is pure and whole
some beyond question. There is
never any doubt of the healthfulness
of the food it makes. Besides, in
practical use it is actually more eco
nomical than any other baking
powder, because it is stronger and
goes further.
