A MAGAZINE for Women.

The June Delineator covers many va
ried interests of the home. 1t shows the
latest styles for ladies, misses, girls, and
little folks, several pages being illustrated
in colors, so as to give correct idea OF
color combinations. The eyer-practical
dressmaking article describes the con
struction of the new Di Vernon waist
Summer time comes in for it's share of at
tention, by special articles being devoted
to material for cycling skirts, to summer
dress fabrics, and to number of new and
pretty surf habits or bathing suits. Sum-
mer millinery is also illustrated in colors.
The problems of moving day and after are
dealt with very thoroughly by Margaret
Hall, and the etiquette required on the
part of those who have moved into new
neighborhood is indicated by Mrs. Frank
Learned in her Social Observances De-
partment. Pastimes for children, all
sorts of fancy needlework for summer
hours, indoor decorations and other va
ried interests come in for attention. The
wonderful benefactions of Baroness Clara
de Hirsch. who aided her husband in Civ
ing away $106, 100000, are described and
illustrated by Sarah X. Bolton. The
short stories of the month are by Gilmore
Elliott Peake and William Mcleod Raine.
4 collection of antique silver is de-
scribed in a special article DEVOTED to the
subject by n. Hudson Moore. The illus
trated cookery deals with birthday par
ties, and is very beautiful.
There is much else Of interest in the
Delineator; a publication that safely
claims for itself that there is no ma agaZine
published that can meet the needs of all
women at so many points.
