pretty story comes from the convent to the
effect that a young woman who was very i'll and
in the care OF the sisters became a convert to
their faith, while awaiting death from an afreC-
ton OF the lungs. She recovered and during
her convalescence. learned the principles OF
lace making, of which she had known nothing
before. Almost like an inspiration she con-
ceiyed wonderfully beautiful designs and
stitches until the astonished nuns found that
a new lace had been added 10 the real laces
known TO needle women. The patient grew
well under the nuns care and has since created

A trimming very much favored this season
is the dyed lace matching the material Of the

also used very effectively. Foulard gowns

THE SUMMERS PRETTY HATS.
Greater Variety in Millinery Never Given to
Women Than This season.

If there Is any one special weakness more
pronounced than another, in a woman's ira
ditional love Of dress. it is instlnctively and
Enthusiastically revealed through her supreme
affection for pretty hats. She can make the
best OF an old gown, but a hat which has grown
shabby and cut of date is an Insult to her in
nermost consciousness. 1t Il an inherited
propensity which nothing seems TO root out
or change unless a woman has become entirely
emancipated from all feminine things.
