TAE SUMNER GIRLS ATTIRE
Staunch Friend Of Woman. Quaint
Effects in laces

The summer girls outfit must neces-
sarily be chosen with view to her
plans for the summer and the lavish
ness of her dress allowance and for
tunately for her who must select a
moderate outfit, never has individuality
of taste had such freedom and never
were delightful effects within the pos
sibilities, at lower cost.
Of course the afternoon gown which
runs the.gamnt of thin materials from
the most expensive laces tothe simplest
organizes must first be considered, but
in apportloning her expenditures for
the summer milady should remember
that the elaborate garden party style
of frock is not, as formerly, the only
afternoon gown required. Now that
it is so fashionable to live out of doors
the greater part of the time, quite a
different style of dress is necessary.
Most appropriate for afternoon wear
are the so-called tailor-made costumes
of lightweight cloth, mohair or linen,
Linen is the leader of fabrics, par
ticularly for shirt waists and there is
no longer any doubt of the shirt waist
holding its own. For many seasons
we have heard the prophecy that the
separate blouse is doomed, but, as the
moralist puts it, ''True merit will tell
and the fact that after at least five sea
sons the separate waist is still with ui
is surely proof of its desirability.

rMn snnsct. Fer Day.

There is only one place In the world
where the sun sets twice daily, and
that is nj I-cek, In StafforlShire, Eng
land. The reason of this is that jag
ged mountain is situated To the west Of
the town. and in the evening the sun
sets behind il and darkness comes on.
Then the first sunset occurs, the gas
lamps are lit. and apparently night has
set ill., But il has not. for In the space
of an hour or SO the sun rcappears
again through the opening nj the side
Of the mountain, and daylight again
appears. Artificial lights are extln-
gulshed and daylight again prevails un-
til the sun descends below the opening
and the second sunset occurs and night
comes to stay.

When the Farmers Strike.

We fret and fume a good deal about
a few hundred thousand mechanics
and miners going on a strike whenever
they have that bilious feeling. Their
actions cause considerable loss of
money and some hardships, but we
can all congratulate ourselves that the
farmers have not yet struck. When
they strike somebody will go hungry,
says an exchange.
