walls are applied groups of shamrocks IN the
natural green coloring. This green note in
the applique in no way interferes with the
color of the inner lining; indeed, 1t seemed
to accentuate the pretty effect.
Coarse white linens promise to be Ia.
vorites for gowns as the season advances,
and the embroiderers are now working the
loveliest designs in pale blue and green
lawns inserted into white net with which
to trim the linen. Another material for
the summer frock Is thick canvas, which
resembles the ugly holland that used to be
the rage some years ago-but only in color.
Pale blue embroidery like madeira work,
with large holes, decorates these gowns
exquisitely. 7-2
The blue holes heading the Killed founce
and outlining the bolero from neck to waist
band are laced back and forth with pale
blue lawn over a chemisette of white mus
lin and Valenciennes insertions. Upon the
sleeves these same blue trimmings run from
elbow to wrist and lace in the same way
over muslin. The lawn ties in bow at the
wrist, and the whole makes delightful
gown.
In Champagne Suede.
In the matter Of gloves champa gne-color-
ed suede made very long are fashionable
for the moment, as they tone in beautifully
with the old lace which trims almost every
costume just now. Lace insertions are be-
ing introduced in some of the long gloves,
while with elbow sleeves the mitten Is be-
ing worn. The new kind is somewhat be-
tween a medieval cuff and the old original
mitten.
Parasols bid fair to outshine all their IA
nous predecessors by way of gorgeousness,
being adorned not only on the outside, but
every inside rib has touch of fuffiness.
The handles Of many are works Of art,
principally Of the new art styles, which
have invaded all realms of sartorial things.
T suDDoSe after this spirit becomes thor
oughly at home we will be walking around
in frocks like those seen in pictures Of Au-
brey Beardsley or Max Beerbohm. -.
Individuality in dress. fashion of one s
own, certain feeling in ones attire best
suited to express the particular kind Of
beauty one owns, is the cry nowadays. The
trouble is that one Is never sure just how
long this style will be ones own, as some
copying kind of person Is liable to come
along and adopt this individuality for her
particular cachet. But all of life is gam
bic more or less, and the chances are worth
running. CATHERINE TALBOT.

with the tones in the eastern trimming
on the gown.
Another pretty costume for spring is
fashioned of thinnest Goth in pale shade
of blue with a knife-plaited skirt draped
at the bottom with tiny piping of silk
blouse bodice is crossed In front over
chemisette and collar of embroidered
lawn. The sleeves are wide at the elbow

Back to Piping.
Piping as trimming is one of the nov
elites offered as a dress decoration.
Black and white striped silk will be en-
ployed in this way upon bodices of plain
cloth. but 1 cannot recommend this mode
of trimming as anything exclusive. A
fashion of this character SO easy of ac-
complishment is apt to be overdone.
The high wristbands are another feature
distinguishing the spring costume. Serge
in dark blue and white always comes to
US every year, and we give 1t the same
hearty welcome because we know how
really good it is and faithful even until
the end. A charming model in the dark
navy serge is made with boero opening
over a waistcoat of olive green leather
The skirt a seven-gored flare. is trimmed
with three bands of black silk one band
in the center and one either side, form
ing a tablier. Passementerie and tassels
connect these bands and finish the sleeves
and waistcoat falling over the draped
black high belt.
Coats Are Fancy.
The tailor is not having it all his own
way, for if the skirts in the strictly tai
lored variety are in accordance with his
fitness of things the coats are extreme
ly elaborate. They are wonderful with
intricate handwork, embroideries and in
sertiens, and the mysterious thing is that
they are ever finished. so much time be-

Written for The Evening Star
Recause YOU live in a house OF only mod
crate proportions, and because your COOK
butler and waitress are all represented IN
the person Of one 6apper, demure little COL
ored maid there Is no earthly reason why
you should not give dinner parties, anu
charming ones too. Just bear in mind tnat,
while dinner giving. like matrimony, Is not
to be entered upon lightly unadvlsediy or
ignorantly, any woman possessed OF the
usual American allowance of brains and
adaptability can learn how to do it, and
that the successful hostess Is made, not
born.
When, therefore, enterprising Henry ad-
mits that he yearns to entertain his valu-
able new client at a savory meal under his
own roof, or that it would mean a lot to him
in his business if he could show some hospi-
tally to Brown of Boston, don't look help
less, or forbidding, or rebelliouS.
Perhaps Gala Lily Of the dusky hand Is
not a Savarin for sauces. Perhaps your
dining room is tight fit for six. Perhaps
you have never had a chance to become
very familiar with the management of this
most stately function of modern society.
But never mind, and just don't give this
away to Henry.
Sit right down and pen a cordial little
invitation to Brown of Boston. Use your
best note paper and say that you hope he
can give you the pleasure of his company on
Thursday evening at 7:30 o'clock, and post
it to Browns hotel. If Brown is gentle
man bred he will appreciate that note,
whether he has met you or not.
You must take pains to find out, through
Henry, whether Brown is'a bachelor man or
a Benediek, travelling with or without his
wife. If he is married and his wife is stop
ping at the hotel with him you must send
the note to her. and ask her to dine with
her husband. Then the four of you will
nicely compose the dinner company.
For Brown the bachelor, however, you
must ask in a woman to balance him at
table. Unless he is very elderly, very

pose we women do justify our reputation
of being inconsiderate. The cloaks worn by
the smartest woman for dressy occasions
are long and loose and made of either
black or white cloth, with lace insertions.
The Paris dressmakers are putting on
these cloaks a kind Of thick curtain lace
which comes from Puy. Revers of white

Shirt Waist Styles.
These indispensable affairs are Of three

verely plain of madras or cheviot, with
yoke in the back and tucked or plain In
front and fastened with studs and links.
This waist is to be worn with the short
skirt The second sort is fashioned of
lawn, sheer linen and all the fascinating
array of thin fabrics, and is made with
tucks innumerable, fittings of dainty lace
and needework. This is donned with the
tailor-made frock.
Last, but by no means least in impor-
lance, comes the very elaborate and often
expensive affair of silk null, all-over lace
and silk from every country and cline. An
alluring waist of this dressy persuasion is
made of almost transparent white silk over

To come back to the spring gown,
saw beauty the other day. It was worn
by stunning woman with genuine reddish
brown hair and lovely natural complexion.
I mention the fact of coloring because the
tints au naturale are rare. Well, the dress
was of almond colored yelling trimmed
with tucks and large box plaits, set off with
heavy tassels and SIDE ornaments in east
ern tints. The bodice had bertha and
cuffs of finely plated silk muslin edged
with guipure work. Stitched plaits formed
the under part of the waist. The yoked
neckband was also in plated muslin. With
this gown my beauty wore a fetching hat

Consumption Defies Medicine.

Great gaunt consumption stalks
through the land defyng all the powers
Of medicine TO check IL for q moment.
Twelve per cent OF all our deaths are
due 10 IL alone. Cures, so.called, by the
dozen are discovered, but thoy do not
cure. Incurable IL may well be- called.
Yet like drowning man grasping at a
straw, so will the hopeless victims OF
this malady eagerly read and believe
the news Of another new discovery for
It's cure. At u recent meeting Of the
Medical Society Of Berlin, composed OF
tho most eminent scientists Of Germany,
there was read description Of tho re-
suits from Il new system OF treatment
for tuberculosis. IL has long been
known that the fumes OF sulphur exert
a curative effect upon the pulmonary
organs. To sulphur has been added
carbon in the form Of charcoal, and Gu
calyptus, the latter an oil from tho
eucalyptus tree OF Australia. This
combination Is heated In "a closed room
and evaporates quickly, filling the air
with its potent, penetrating fumes.
The patient, breathing this, is gradual
ly relieved Whether IL will effect a
permanent cure Is yet to be discovered,
but this much they assert: that the
ever present cough ceases, the catarrh
quickly changes character, and that
the stomach Is not weakened but
strengthened under the treatment,
three things which will go far to pro-
duce permanent health.
