Khaki Is Popular.

An undoubted authority writes from
Paris that the khaki cloth is much in
vogue and that it is used to build
many Of the chic racing costumes. An
effective model of this strange but be-
coming material has skirt which is
laid in shingles. The bodice is Of ecru
lace mounted over black satin and held
by high plated belt of the CLOTH, the
sleeves of the material laid in shingles.
White organizes trimmed with black
lace are prominent among the thin
costumes. The lace appears in wide
insertions set in stripes all around the
skirt and bodice between groups of fine
tucks. Every possible phase of tuck
Ing, every conceivable mode of using
lace Is illustrated in the gowns
this season. Some of the prettiest
summer gowns are made of white
nuns yelling, both in the fine sheer
weaves and the variety called course
yelling. Russian and cluny laces are
especially effective as trimming when
set in around the skirt above the hem
in deep pointed design. Above this
the skirt is a series of vertical bands,
Joined with an openwork stitch. Other
white yelling gowns. with simple tuck
ed skirts, are made very effective with
wide collar of embroidered. white
taffeta edged with applique lace. Or
CANDY gowns are as elaborate as they
are alluring. The pure white ones are
especially beautiful. A lovely model
just completed has deep overskirt
with bias lines of three widths OF
white satin ribbon ranging from one
quarter to one-half an inch in width.
These groups meet down the front
and back and form bias lines over the
sides. The edge of the overdress has a
deep accordion plated founce, finished
by triple rows of satin ribbons. The
bodice has deep yoke simulated by
narrow valenciennes and Swiss inser-
tions over the top of the sleeves. The
two kinds of insertion are Joined by
herringbone stitching. Over the shout
der is a deep bias stripe laid in series
of plaits, fichuwise. the lowest edge Of

Piqus and Duck Costumes.

tr'
Pique and duck costumes are to be
very fashionable this year, and the
new designs are certainly charming.
Many of the piques are light in weight,
and gracefully embellished with de>'
signs of embroidery. Colored pique
and duck gowns are built in a variety
Of different colorings. A blue duck
costume is made with circular skirt
and some slight fullness at the back
The sailor blouse is wide, and the
tucker is of tucked muslin. Many of
the smartest piques have the seams
banded with contrasting color. For
example, a white piQue has the seams
banded with narrow piece of red
stitched with white, the Elton coat
decorated with a red sailor collar with
a band of white. Cotton canvases in
all colors are in evidence. The delicate
pastel colors are deemed very fash
ionable. One in pastel blue has skirt
laid in plaits, or rather shingles, that
reach nearly to the line of the knee.
The Elton coat opens in the front to
reveal a waistcoat of white canvas
buttoned with two rows of small gold
buttons. The jacket is collarless and
is ornamented with inch-wide bands
two inches long, with pointed ends,
that form trimming, which follows
the outline Of the coat. The sleeves
are plain, and the choker consists OF
finely tucked grass cloth. All of the
striped piques make charming cos
tunes and they are especially, beconl-
ing to stout figure. A simple but
pretty black and white stripe has
plain skirt save for the plated fans,
which are set in all Of the seams at the
hem. The sailor blouse has a deep
collar and necktie of soft black silk,
the girdle of the same material, the
tucks of corded white muslin. Among
the smartest costumes are those of
pure white. The favorits model is
built strictly on tailor lines, all the
seams stitched several times. Butch
ers' linens are novel and bewitching.
This fabric in dark blue, trimmed with
light blue, constitutes an unusual
frock. There is no light blue on the
skirt except the heavy stitching. The
underskirt is trimmed with plating,
and the long tunic is buttoned in front
with row of small pearl buttons. The
blouse has jacket front. There is a

Heir to the Throne Stands Above
His Father

AS may be imagined from a glance
at this picture, the crown prince of
Germany, who has just come of age, is
little too big to be laid conveniently
over the imperial knee and caned. He
is taller than his father. Yet in the
past, that punishment has been admin
istered to Germany's royal sons, and
in the case of the younger princes it
still is employed sometimes. Were it
not for the influence of the empress
the cane might play still larger part
in the domestic economy, for the en-
peror believes in it, having suffered
somewhat in his youth. His sons, be-

empress shares the training volun-
tarily. In summer the lads are out of
bed at 6, in winter at z, and half an
hour later they have their first meal
of tea and bread and butter. at which
meal the mother is present. At 8
o'clock the princes studies begin; at
$3.50 there is a second meal at which
the tea is replaced by wine and water.
Then there are further lessons until
lis. Recreation follows the dinner,
taken in company with their civil and
military governors, but at 3 work is
resumed. and is not ended until the
clock strikes 6. 1t is on record that a

ditional information about the eight
hours working bill. The tutor ex-

Guimpes, Sleeves, Fichus.
