Fashions for Mademoiselle

trellis-work cross each other, with
small pink roses, made in chiffon.
Similar little roses are also used
upon the fully-draped sleeves to catch
up the fulness along the inner side of
the arm, while they appear again upon
the front Of the bodice, where the trel-
lis-work idea is repeated in slightly
different way. In this case, the leaf
green ribbon is folded and drawn
round the shoulders fichu fashion, be-
fore being arranged in trellis form in
front. Between the folds of ribbon on
the bodice, the muslin is finely tucked,
while the bodice is prettily finished
with a high neck-band and a little
chemisette of transparent ecru lace.
In white or ecru spotted muslin, this
would be pretty frock made up over
a color, while the same idea might be
suitably carried out in figured net or
embroidered muslin made up over a
colored silk foundation. The hat which
is sketched with this dainty muslin
frock is of pale tan-colored Leghorn,
with a wide band of black velvet rib
bon, folded round the high crown, and
clusters of full white ostrich plumes,
arranged to droop over on to the brim
in front.
The craze for picture frocks and pic
ture hats, so characteristic at the mo-
ment of the fashions for madame, will
naturally find an echo in the modes for
mademoiselle, and in the case of young
girls this vogue is one which opens up
various interesting possibilities. Num-
bers of old prints and engravings, as
well as family portraits and the works
by old masters can all be pressed into
service, and will be found to offer in
Vulnerable suggestions for picture
frocks for young people.
Sweet simplicity is the keynote OF
the summer hats for mademoiselle,
and seldom have the fashions been
prettier in this respect than they are
this year. For quite little girls, moth
ing is nicer than the demure and sem

does not soil so quickly, while 1t also
washes exceedingly well, and does not
fade as soon as the similarly pale
shades of blue, pink and heliotrope, so
often used for children's coats and
frocks, although it must be confessed
that they are all of them equally pref
ty and becoming. The neat little coat
which we illustrate is quite simply
trimmed with a number of rows Of
fine white stitching down the front and
round the hem, as well as on the cuffs.
The coat fastens over on one side,
with large buttons of pale green bone,
while for smart occasions it is provid-
ed with a collar of white Valenciennes
lace and insertion, finished in front
with bow of sift white washing silk.
The shady summer hat is made of the
same green linen as the coat, and fine
ly stitched. 1t is trimmed with wide
scarf of white soft silk ribbon, spotted
with green, and tied in very large
double DOW in front.
The other little girl wears rather a
smarter kind of costume, suitable for
Sunday best, or even as a dress for a
very youthful bridesmaid or train
bearer at a summer wedding. The
frock is carried out entirely in white
embroidered muslin, and made up over
a slip of pale blue pongee silk. Two
flounces of open-work embroidery
form the skirt, while the embroidered
sleeves are very prettily plated on the
shoulders, and again at the wrists.
There is deep cape collar of the same
embroidery, with wide band of en-
broidered muslin down the center of
the bodice in front. The little chemi-
settle is of white muslin, crossed by
bands of insertion. The sash, which is
tied very low in the waist, is of for
get-me-not blue soft silk, while the
quaint Dutch bonnet is also of white
embroidered muslin, lined with pale
blue silk. 1t is turned off the face in
front, and finished on either side with
clusters Of forget-me-nots. The bonnet
strings are of pale blue ribbon.
Something very smart indeed for
mademoiselle in the way of picture
frock is shown in our other illustra-
ton. Although the effect is so de-
lightfully original, the style Of the
dress is really perfectly simple. The
material should be either soft floral
muslin, or delaine, patterned with
tiny pink rosebuds. The skirt is made
, very full and plated into the waist,
where it is finished with deep belt
of soft leaf-green Louisine silk rib
bon. Near the hem there is a very
pretty trellis-work of the same kind of
leaf-green ribbon, but in a narrower
width, fastened just where the lines of

STRONGHOLD OF A HERMIT
An English Farmer Being Tilted Seeks
Seclusion from the Eyes of
Mankind.

For Is years James Mason, farmer
who formerly kept stock and worked his
land as any other agriculturist, has cut
himself off from all human intercourse,
says the London Daily Mail. He lives
in a cave in the midst of three acres of
woodland at Great Garfield, on the east
ern border of Eessex.
The cause of this strange conduct was
an unfortunate love affair. Thirteen
years ago, when man of 40, he was
Tilted by the 17-year-old daughter of a
neighboring farmer. Mason thereupon
vowed that he would never again gaze
upon woman's face.
He left his home, disposed of part of
his land, and took up his abode on por
ton of his holding, which adjoins the
old Epping forest.
Around this he dug dyke IL feet deep
and IL feet wide. He planted thick
hedge round-a hedge which has now at
tanned an enormous height, and lined it
with rows of barbed wire.
Here, completely screened and pro-
tected from all fear of prying eyes, he
has passed Ii lonely years, and during
this time only two human beings have
ever caught glimpse of the hermit
One was the village postman, who, 60
ing his rounds in the early morning,
for a moment saw a Withholding man
who, as he afterward said, dropped to
the ground as though he had been shot. /"
The other was woodman who, eight
years ago, was greatly alarmed at seeing
wild, bearded face glazing at him
through a hole in the hedge.
No one in the locality has ever dared
to penetrate the hedge, for the belief is
firmly implanted in the villagers that
the wild man." as he is called, carries
arms, and would not scruple to use them
if any attempt to invade his privacy
were made.
1t is generally believed that the hermit
sleeps all day and works at night, for at
late hours belated wayfarers have re-
ported noises from behind the impene-
trable hedge.

HOW HE LOST THE GAME
Good Player, But Dreamed of Latin
Verses While Trying to
Catch the Ball.

The English love their national game
of cricket with fondness which makes
it something more than pastime. 1t
is almost sacred institution in the
eyes of schoolboys, and even in the
eyes of children of larger growth.
A writer in Blackwood's gives an in
stance of this devotion. One afternoon
he met Mr.. Lambert, the master of a
large preparatory school, usually a
CHEEKY fellow. This day he looked
haggard and careworn.
well, Lambert" he said, chow are
things going with you?"

eve have just lost our cricket-match
by one wicket; and-would you be-
lieve it?-that little donkey, Palmer,
dropped two catches in the last over"
Dear! dear! That's a dreadful
thing. What did you say his name
was?"
Palmer"
"It sounds familiar. What do l
know about Palmer?"
''Why, I've told you, haven't I? He
dropped two catches! Things baby
in arms might have caught"
amy relation of the boy who got in
at the head of the list at Winchester"
Same fellow; and that's just the
sort of silly thing he can do. He is as
clever as they make 'em; and the an
noying part of it is that he really
could play cricket if he'd only give his
mind to it. But there he stands in
the middle of the field, with his mouth
wide open, and dreams of Latin
verses!'
