MEMS SCARFS ON WOMEN
Criticism by Man on the Latest Ap.
propriatfon of Mems Attire

Nothing in the whole field of woman's
who is not ordinarily observant of such
matters. "as the fiat scarf and the shirt
waists. These large fiat ties, hanging
like breast plates from womens necks
and Tapping to and fro as they walk, are
the most malignant manifestations of the
tailor-made fad and its consequences that
I have ever seen. The unsuitability of
such a necktie to a shirt waist seems to
be lost on them. No man would ever
think Of wearing such a scarf with a fam
mel of an outing shirt. Those heavy
things are reserved by men for more for
NAL occasions, yet women have taken them
up this year as the articles for regular
summer wear.
My experience has been that the small
err the woman is the larger her scarf Is
likely to be, and if she happens to have
the sort of figure which makes the scarf
project forward and remain in that posi-
tion the Appropriateness of such neck
wear for women Is more apparent than
ever. If women care about the wishes OF
men in the matter of dress they ought
to take off those large neckties. Nothing
can excuse them There are plenty OF
substitutes, and even il there were not,

Fire Escape Parties

Fire escape parties are popular warm
weather diversions in the foreign parts of
town. and the French quarter is especially
addicted to this aerial form of pleasure.
In full view Of the passengers of passing
elevated trains, one complacent family eats
supper every warm evening on its airy
iron balcony. The train rounds a curve
an it passes the house and so goes slowly
enough to permit its passengers to take a
hungry inventory of monsieur and
madame's repast Monsieur and madame
live we'll. They had cheese, salad and wine
last evening, and sometimes they sip coffee
out of glass gobets. A long loaf of French
bread lay on the ledge of the fire escape
last evening, wedged between two flower
pots. Two small children also partook Of
the open air repast, one sitting on the win
dow sill and one on his fathers knee.-New

FREE MARKET FOR
SOLDIERS FAMILIES

The latest scheme to aid the needy fam
lilies of soldiers at the front is free fruit
and vegetable market, to be established by
the Woman'S Patriotic Relief association.
"Our idea is this" said one of the ladies
who is promoting the plan: 1--WE have
many families on our list who have to be
supplied with food from day to day. Now.
all our citizens are generous and willing
to aid in the work, but not all can give
money. We want to start this market
so that farmers, commission merchants,
grocers, butchers and icemen can contri-
butte their mite from day to day. We are
looking for a vacant building somewhere
on the east side. Probably we will get
what we want rent free. Then we will
ask for donations of all sorts of food.
For instance. the small grocer may have
some of his stock left over. 1t Is not
spoiled. but 1t will be If 1t lies in the store
another day. Instead of risking dead
loss on his perishable vegetables, he will
be asked to bring them to our market, and
we will give them to the needy families on
our list. He will have helped our cause
without feeling the expenditure as much
as if he had given money Several ice
firms have promised ice; the commission
men have not been canvassed, but they
always have goods left over which am
sure they would be glad to give to such a
good purpose"
"Who will manage your market?" was
asked.
women Of the Patriotic Relief associa-
ton was the prompt reply. I'VE will
take turns in spending few hours of the
day at the market and sending out the
supplies"
1t will be a novel sight to see women
well known in club and fashionable cir
ces dressed in denim and acting as gro
GERS clerks for the needy.
Many women belonging to the Patriotic
Relief association are staying in the city
this summer for the sole purpose of car
rying on the work of that association.
They will divide their forces SO that
three or four of their members will work
in the market each morning, receiving and
sending out contributions. Their places
will be taken by others in the afternoon
and new delegation will be on hand each
day, so that the work will not become too
arduous for any one member.
money is being contributed very freely
to our cause" said a member Of the execu-
tive committee. "but there are 80 many
uses for the cash that we dislike to spend
a cent where some donation Of what we
want will save the money."-New York
Journal. ~

Petticoats of the finest white cambria, and
of lawn "as white as driven snow" are
rapidly coming back into favor. and If only
for their. cool lightness, and the frequency
with which they can be washed or cleaned,
they certainly have, for summer wear, much
to recommend them. They are trimmed
with quite as great an elaboration of frils,
flounces and furbelows as the skirts of glace
silk and of brocades, although the only
trimming which is permissible upon them.
of course, is lace of some kind or other. Fine
lace flounces, bordered with drawn open
work, are to be seen upon some of the new
skirts, but as a rule these f1ounces also are

Everyone stared and then smiled. For out

poked its cunning little head. The girl
gazed at it lovingly, stroked its head with
motherly affection and walked across the

air of nonchalant Indifference. The girl put

ciennes lace. For the trimming of UNDER
skirts Maltese lace is also being very much
used this season. 1t is obtainable in.many
wonderfully pretty patterns. and its excep-
tional durability makes it most desirable as
trimming for garments which must of
necessity be frequently washed.
A wonderfully pretty cape, made in fawn
cloth, with four frills. dipping at the back,
proves most becoming to the, figure. The
frills start from yoke, and 1t is cut In one

ruffle inside.
A new Partisan model is tight-fitting at
the back, with Vatican pleats coming down
between the shoulders, the side seams APP
parently secured to it by six diamond
buckles; 1t has very high collar and is
trimmed with bouliones of the same shade,
and a large tie Of chiffon to match, edged
with ruches the sleeves being of the hang

Daily practice in nose respiration leads to
its unconscious performance. It will pre-
vent the contraction of colds, Its water va
pors will keep the membrane constantly
moist and their ciliated epithelium will serve
as dust filter, as may be experienced at any
time when the air is filed with dust or
smoke.
Seventy-five per cent Of all known baeterie
and 50 per cent of those living in the air
have been found in the mucous Of the nose,
which is poison to them. 1t has further
been proven that the secondary nasal cav
tiles are in a more or less close connection
with the brain; numerous minute Emphatic
canals open beneath the membranes lining
the nose and its secondary cavities. The
liquid excretions Of the brain escape through
these channels into the atmosphere by ex-
portation, constituting the chief source for
the moisture OF the nose.-Philadelphia
