Ribbon velvet aud Bra,ds.

Wide. plain crinolne braids, edged
with narrowest black ribbon, sewn on
lisse of the same color, make up well
into large toques. In a model of this
sort the lisse used to drape the brim
has two rows of braid running hori-
zontally. and is mounted in volum-
inous bouillonne caught on either side
OF the front and twice again at the
back so as to form sort Of large,
square bow. The crown Is covered
loosely with plain lisse. as well as the
under side OF the brim. Palest laven-
der gray is the color chosen for the
lisse and braids, the latter being bor-
dered with black velvet. For trim
ming, there are two large pale pink
roses resting on the bonuillone: q
third is fixed under the brim.

Lake Vessels Launched Broadsid, On.

Shipbulldcrs on the great lakes have
devised the most ingenious scheme in
use anywhere for showing n great,
pOnderous steel vessel into the water
when she Is well-nigh completed. The
shlpyards of the great lakes are not
located on the banks of the fresh wa
ter seas. but upon contributary rivers
on artificial slips. None of these
waterways are moro than half as
wide as n modern lake cargo carrier
is long. and so, instead of sliding the
vessel into the water endwise, as is
the custom all over the world, these
giant leviathans toboggan down n
monster slide and take the water
broadside on.

Watermelon pink is a fashionable
color
Stockings of the finest white silk or
Isle thread are worn with white
gowns.
Hair receivers made of linen and
fashioned in cornucopia shape, with
the aid of buttons, are among the nov
elites.
Quills are seen on nearly all the hats
especially designed to wear with tai
lor made suits, and the quills are util-
lied in novel ways.
Chantllly lace, very fine and gossa-
mer like, wells the floral sprays and
clusters on some of the daintiest crea-
tions of the milliner.
On some of the batiste. muslin and
zephyr linen gowns for morning wear,
tiny chaplets take the place OF the
popular rufiie over the shoulder.
Dimity is the prettiest OF materials
for underwear as well as gowns, but
look out for the laundress. It will
wear well IL it is given tender treat
ment, but not otherwise.
Bands of red, white or dark blue add
amazingly to the style of the gray
linen skirts. These linen skirts, by
the way, are far more serviceable than
the pique, since they do not require
such frequent washing.
1t has not been possible to get away
from the plain backs on gowns. They
went out apparently for time, but
they sprang up again, without making
n fuss about it, and most of the pref
tiest and most stylish gowns have the
plain backs.
The elastic ground belt, quite wide
and shaped to the figure with a bone
or two is the most approved style for
general wear. The belt is woven with
the lower edge coming Just below the
waist line, and the elastic is decorated
with many devices.
For the woman who likes her short

The Fiction Side OF Golf.

One OF the latest lost golf ball

Homcly Mrs. Wagner.

Mrs. Richard Wagner is a remarka-
BILE woman for her years, still tall,
straight and slender, kind, gentle and
sympathetic. Sne instructs her sing
ers in all Wagnerian roles, rising ear
ly in all kinds of weather, and exert
ing all day her wonderful executive
ability. She plays the piano well, and
is a splendid musician.
Mrs. Wagner, now 6S, is head tall
er than was her husband. Quaint and
odd in dress, spare and gaunt in figure,
the startling effect Is heightened by a
long and scrawny neck. She is as sal
low as her venerable father. now dead.
Deep, but phenomenaily bright, pierre
ing eyes CLEAN out from under heavy
brows. Her nose is long and hawked.
There never lived another so homely
and fascinating a man as her father,
and he was her prototype.
She is said to be what Wagner in
sisted on calling her-the most intel
lectual woman In Germany. Her in
tellectuality is only surpassed by her
matchless devotion.
Her shining faith In her dead mas
ter's dedication. and in her own final
reunion with him, would transform the
whole world to Wagnerian disciples,
could 1t be brought within her infu-
ence. This one woman was as nee
essary as life itself to complete the de-
yelopment of Wagner's purpose to Gre
ate for the world an absolutely new
standard In lyric music.-Success.
