Tho PiaZzn.

Sometimes in the building Of piazza
a tree will be found in the way, and
rather than spoil the width of the
summers resting place, down comes
the tree. Why? l know Of one piazza
that is the comfort and beauty Of
country house nestled in among pine
trees. At one end OF the generous
floor space is a square hole through
which grows Scotch pine; a similar
hole in the roof admits of its exit again
to out-of-doors and the tree spreads
over the roof above. High in the air
ats hands are extended in grateful ben
diction, while the birds nest in its
branches. Even if the piazza is not
built Of rustic design, it can have
rustic furniture as its finishing. Chairs
and benches can be made with plain
backs and seats painted the color Of
the floor; tables made with cedar posts,
and queer little stools with crooked
legs. The uses for tables on a piazza
are endless. A long bench is delight
full equipment, making an out-of-door
couch, with long cushion to cover the
hard bottom, and the countless small
cushions which make for luxurious
comfort. Piazza mating rugs give the
floor furnished appearance and save
much wear on paint. The.woven mat
ting awnings that are much in vogue
are the most practical. These roll
down from the piazza roof and fasten
to the railing. They shut out any too
persistent sunshine, the sudden shower
or the gaze of the neighbors. A rustic
screen to shut off any corner Of the
piazza can easily be made Of fancy
mating stretched to a frame of cedar
posts.-Marjorie March, in Good House
keeping.

Pretty ThincR In VVaar

Norfolk suits Of linen are good style.
Triple capes are much liked for coat
finishes.
Girls with pretty necks take to o,stock-
less dresses.
Variations in hemstitching are noted
in greatest variety.
Satin finish foulard makes the wearer
look very much larger.
All house gowns are long-exagger-
ated long-in the skirt.
Feather-stitching trims many very
dressy affairs in voile.
All One-color get-ups are sure to be
attractive IL well chosen.
Linen dresses of brick red shade
are extremely fashionable.
Dresses made with clusters Of two
inch tucks are very smart.
A black linen and silk mixture is
very popular and resembles pongee.
A lace bow for the back of the hat
is newer than one Of ribbon or silk.
Grass linens are now dyed to the
favorite colors, following the lead Of
pongee.
The Gibson effect is the height of
vogue for the little girls'dresses, just as
it is for the grOwn-ups.
Rufles cut to form petals four or
five deep make a pretty foot finish for
sheer fabric frock.
Very short black taffeta jackets
stitched in white, and their bertha-lilxe
collar embellished with white applique,
are very swagger.
Lattice yokes Of velvet ribbon make
clever effects for evening. So do
sleeves to match. Semi-evening dress

Summer NcedIevrorIs.

Apropos of embroidery and fancy
work in general ''set" of linen given
to a bride the other day was about as
pretty as could be imagined. The
tablecloth was round and of pale blue
linen, inserted with medalions of ecru
guipure lace. The serviettes had small
central medalions and narrow line Of
ders.
Among a bewildering collection of
examples of fine stltchery are shown
some very pretty table centres. A de-
lightful one in pale coral linen had ap.
piled popples in conventional design,
their dull green leaves enframing the
irregular edge as If they had been real
flowers laid upon it. A cot cover was
carried out in the same materials and
hues, but in a different pattern; here
the pointed leaves met over the pop
pies heads like cherub's wings. An
other natural flower idea was a table.
cloth strewn with multi-colored sweet
peas.
A pair Of splendid portIeres were car
rled cut on linen in fax thread in a
beautiful bold design of old-fashioned
nowers' suggestive of samplers in their
quaint form and colorlng. The execu-
tion of this piece of work was extraor-
dlnarily assured and free.

Umbrella Collars .

For the numerous black silk cloaks
in vogue there's whole crop Of col.
lars in lace and batiste and linen, and
in shades running from deep twine
to white. In some cases the lace is
applied to the material, in others the
linen or batiste is applied to the lace.
1t amounts to the same thing. the deep,
circular collar being so voluminous as
to win the name Of umbrella for itself.
Many are merely pretty, and some are
so odd Of mesh and figure as to be posi-
lively weird.

Fashions For Miss Simplicity.


If only more women appreciated the
beauties of simplicity! When you stoI
to think of 1t, it's always the very sim
pie hat or dress that you most admire
To be sure, there may be lot Of worh
on it, or more expense. This sam,
pleasing simplicity may, of course, alsc
belong to absolutely plain things, and
these are the most admirable of al
when they are becoming and well done
This is all especially good to remember
at this season, when really simple wash
frocks are in the best Of taste Those
of US with slim bank accounts cannot
fail to be grateful for Shis.
No more pretty and serviceable white
shirt waist suit Is to be found thar
that of India linen. 1t is sheer enough
to be dainty and not sheer enough to
require an underslip. A very pretty
one Is perfectly simple save for the EN-
broidery bands that form the stock and
wristbands. This embroidery shows
lozenge-shaped opening, but its wearer
elects to wear the bands of black vel.
vet underneath instead of run through.
With broad black velvet ribbon sash
this suit is elegance personlfed, and,
without the sash. cheap and suitable
for even accomplishing light household
duties In.
Quite as worthy Of description is tho
smart little hat worn with this dress,
1t is Of softly pretty rice straw in the
pure white, and would be a rolling
brim sailor but for the slashes which
leave the back in the shape of broad
tab. A black wing is curved toward
the front on therlght brim, a similar one
curving toward the back on the under
side of the slightly upturned left brim.
A short zigzag of black ribbon, each
side the front, is terminated under a
black straw cabochon. 1t is exceeding
ly plain, but most modish.
A gay and perhaps correct enough
touch to these white shirt waist suits
is the elbow-long gloves of black silk
These are quite as smart, If not as new
or expensive. as the lace effects, which
are as mOdish in handGear as in hos.
iery. Furthermore, a silk glove is suit.
