Three Questions.

Before purchasing piano or organ
there are few questions it is well to
consider First: Is the instrument made
to use or simply to sell? Second: Is
the the tone. action and finish first class?
Third: Is the price reasonable? Cheap
instruments are expensive at any price.
Why? Because they never give .satis-
faction, being constructed Of the cheap
est material hastily thrown together.
To secure the value of your money there
is one certain way. Buy an instrument
which has not only an established repu=
tation for years. but which has kept up.
with every improvement Of medern
times. If you then would like suchan
instrument with tone, action and ff-
ish unsurpassed, have them, and can
furnish you any at the lowest price

cling to broad, soft effects and girdles,
which tend to diminish the length Of
her waist in the back. A pretty novel
ty for the slender girl is a belt COM
posed of five strands Of narrow black
velvet ribbon ornamented at short in
tervals with jeweled slides.
Very often the belt Is made Of the
same goods as the dress, and this seems
to be a fad at present with the princi-
pal dressmakers.
A pretty costume for the seashore IL
illustrates this. The material is cream
yelling. The short bolero and overskirt
are cut in toothed effect and embroid-
cred with large blue silk flowers.
The underskirt and the bodice proper
are of the yelling trimmed with strap
pings of pale blue taffeta. These run
perpendicularly on the waist and skirt
and horizontally on the little vest. The
sailor collar Is of embroidered white
yelling edged with knife plated ruff
fle of the pale blue taffeta. The wide
empire belt is Of the yelling, banded
with narrow black velvet. The under
sleeves are of sheer white muslin, and
the upper sleeves terminate with a pale
blue frill and irregular strapping.
The soft turban is OF pale blue tulle
trimmed at the left side with two blue
Ostrich feathers. JUDIc CHoLLET.

tration The waist is bloused over a
belt of lavender liberty satin. The
sleeves are elbow length and are finish
ed with band of lace guipure and
wide ruffie. Bands Of this guipure run
perpendicularly down the waist and
sleeves and form plaid pattern on the
skirt down to the knees where the full
ness is set in in deep bow plaits. The
wide sailor collar is in white lingerie
tucks and is edged with hand embroid
cred toothed frill. The cheIhisette and
collar are of white. with applications Of
yellow lace 4 small bow of narrow
black velvet ribbon fastens the sailor
collar in front. JUDO CHOLLET.

Dainty Collars, ParasOls and Big
RuchinEs of Chiffon.
The accessories of dress are more
dainty this year than ever. The little
stocks, even the washable ones, are
marvels of fine handwork and EN-
broidery. Parasols show great deal
of buttonhole and openwork embroid-
cry, the open spaces being filled with
silk and chiffon of contrasting shades.
Large boas and ruches of chiffon are
worn even on the hottest days. For a
blond nothing can be prettier than one
of those large, full boas Of black chiffon
edged with the narrowest of silver rib
bon. The most elegant ruches are made
to match the gown with which they are
intended to be worn. For instance. n
gown of pink muslin trimmed with
black requires a boa of pink chiffon

Many of the most stylish shoes show

for walking shoes these higher heels
prevail. For evening wear shoes and
stockings should match the gown or the
trimming.

blue is almost equally a favorite. Some
citron, pistache green and the Persian
figurings. The daintier the shades the
more dressy the foular6. Red and
white is perhaps the most stylish color
ing this season.
A great many batistes are worn by
well dressed women. Linen batistes Of
course rank first, but there is varie
ty of other colors for those whose COM
plexions will not allow them to wear
this trying shade. These little gowns
are made up very simply with coarse
lace and boleros or fichus.
The morning costume in today's H.
Illustration Is of blue and white batiste
trimmed with the same goods in plain
blue. The waist is made full, with a
deep box plat directly in front. The
neck is cut out In round shape and fill
ed In with yoke of tucked white ba-
tiste. 1t is finished with a trimming of
deep points Of the blue linen edged
with white. The collar has a narrow
black velvet tie. The sleeves are in the
popular bishop shape, and the cuffs are
of the dark blue batiste. The skirt Is
made with three bias ruffies edged with
the dark linen batiste, and the belt h
also of the plain material, decorated
with an art nouveau buckle.
The jaunty hat is Of pale yellow lace
straw, with blue and white satin RIB
bon. JUDO CHoLLET.
