FEMININE FASHIONS.
Fresh Finery for the Summer Sea-
son in Gowns and Trim-
81 nAinGs,

Parasols of miroir silk with inch
wide fan tucks around the edge are
very chic with carved handles of
ivory.
White silk roses with black velvet
%aves make lovely trimming Oh
white straw hat faced with black.
The linen batiste collar with lace
applications is favored especially by
Partisan dress designers. 1t is large,
dropping well over the shoulder, and
appears on almost all the gowns.
The vogue for large Gainsborough
hats is expected on account of the
recovery of the lost duchess of Dew
onshire, but large hats, very SIMILAR
in shape, have never really gone out
OF fashion, says a fashion journal.
A pale blue cotton mousseline is
made up with Brussels lace is Il hand
some and expensive gown, and has
some noticeable features. One is q
princess effect in front, there being
a front panel carried from the waist
down the skirt without break.
mere is Wulsl iiIt az lNS ph'N
given by a little bodice of some gay
ly-nowered material, broad and point
ed in the back narrowing as it passes
round to the front, where il ends
on either sids of the waist, sloping
down to aid in producing the desired
long-waisted effect. There is no
other bright color in any other part
of the gown. The little lowered bod
ice is finished with six buttons in the
back, set on in pairs and laced around
with narrow velvet ribbon which
is tied in a loose bow below them.
Another pretty feature of this gown
is in the four deep bias tucks. per-
haps two inches wide, which finish The
skirt of this gown at the lower edge.
Cut out flowers of chiniz or ere
tonne are the latest novelty in trim
flowers show to hest advantage If
outlined with light embroidery OF
fine gold thread. With the most
stylish costumes the parasol follows
suit in point of appIiqued flowers.
A pretty toilette Of pale coral pink
crepe has two deep tlounces Of white
embroidered Indian muslin, divided
by garland of appIiqucd daisies.
The same applique appears on the
pockets and cuffs of the Louis XVI.
vest, while frillS of Indian muslin fall
from the sleeves.

ATHLETICS
WON GAME.

Chester Athletics beat Brownson out
in the ninth inning yesterday afternoon,
winning the game by the score Of to s.
At the beginning Of the last inning the
score WAS to 4 in favor of Brownson.
Jordan, the first man up for the Athletics
in the ninth, hit over the left field fence
which tied the score. Strcker made a
hit. was sacrificed to second by Medcher
and to third by McCnbe.. Stricker
scored what proved to be the winning
run on an error by Burchell. who al
lowed a returned ball from the catcher
to pass him. Brownson was unable to
score in its half Of the ninth.
On account of the inclcmcnt weather
the attendance was small and the game
unint"restng until the last inning. The
wet balls intcrfered a great deal with
the pitching and caused several errors
by the fsllcrs. Burchcll was touched
rather lively in several innings, while
tn" locals were unable to do but little
with Kcrwin's delivery. One of the fea-
lures of the game was Doran's pretty
catch of a fly after hard run. Kerwin
and o. German led in hitting, each hav-
ing three singles.
The two new players signed on Thurs
day were in the game They are Doran,
catcher. and O. German. left field. both
from New York. The two new men
played on the strong Murray Hill team
ard were recommended to Manager Me-
Swiney by sonthpaw Burchell They
made a good impression Yesterday and
should add much strength to the team.
o. German is fast fielder. good base
runner and hard hitter. which is need
ed by the Rrownson team. The score

THE PIANO AT ITS BEST.
Four Times Il Srnr None TGO often
to Have Piano
Tuned.

"'rhrre are plenty of people, said
a piano tuner, says h" New York
sun. "who let their pianos go one,
two. three wears without tuning, and
in some eases pianos thus neglected
may not get very wOiullv of. but
piano should he tuned every three
months. That would he none too
often to keep it in order.
"As a matter Of fact IA piano begins
to get out of tune again at once after
il has been tuned; how could it be
otherwise? Nothing stands still.
This difference would at first be so
slight as scarcely to he perccptiblc
to any but the practiced and srrsi-
tive ear of an expert tuner, but il is
there. Doesn't Il clock begin to run
down as soon as il is wound upn
Four times Il year piano ought to
be tuned. but only comparatively
small percentage Of people give their
pianos That attention which is need.
ed to keep them in the most perfect
loyeiincss of tone. rianoInakcrS and
dealers, Of COURSE, are looking after
the tuning of their pianos in stock
scrupuI"usly and carefully all the
time. You don't hear pianos out of
tame in ii piano war"rnum. They
never Irt them get ont Of tune there.
They aim in fact at Keeping them
as near perfection as tIry can.
1--WE are pretty sure to lind in ev-
cry new piano something pleasing
and attractive. Some share. at least,
