OF absolute freedom of immigration to

"fierce" can hardly be called slang at

is an escape from mental exertion and
an adoption of a fixed, uniform. I'M

What Women are Doing,

In an account of the development
of nursing as a profe ssion for women
1t is pointed out that until Florence
Nightengale organized a staff OF
nurses during the Crimean War there
was no systematic arrangement In
Great Britain for training women In
this work; for which, as they have
amply demonstrated, they are emil
nently fit.
The $3.50, 600 that was subscribed
as testimonial in recognition OF her
patriotic and humane services was de-
voted to founding the first English
training school for nurses.
At the outset the calling was de-
signed for a superior class of domes-
mestics, but as the requirements in
creased higher-class women were at
tracted to it, until now it has become
scientific profession for the educat-
ed.
Other associations took up the work
of training until now every large
London hospital has It's training
school
The gift to Queen Victoria of $780,
600 enabled her to fifty cap the work
begun by Florence Nightingale by
the establishment of the Institute OF
Nurses.
Today it is estimated that there are
no fewer than "a goo women employed
as nurses In the slums and hospitals
of Great Britain.
A great deal of work In this class
is done in the houses of the poor.

When You Have a Cold.

The first action when you have a
cold should be to relieve the lungs.
This is best accomplished by the free
use Of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy.
This Remedy liquefies the tough mu-
Gus and causes its expulsion from the
air cells of the lungs, produces a free
extoration, and opens the secretions.
A complete cure follows. This rem
edy will cure a severe cold in less
time than any other treatment and it
leaves the system in a natural and
healthy condition. 1t counteracts any
tendency toward pneumonia. For

Consumption

Salt pork is famous old
fashioned remedy for con-
sumption. "Eat plenty of
pork" was the advice to the
consumptive SO and 100
years ago.
Salt pork is good if a man
can stomach it. The idea
behind it is that fat is the
food the consumptive needs
most.
SCOTS Emulsionis themod-
ern method of feeding fat to
the consumptive. Pork is too
rough for sensitive Stomachs.
SCOTS Emulsion is the most
refined of fats, especially
prepared for easy digestion.
Feeding him fat in this
way, which is often the only
way, is half the battle, but
SCOTS Emulsion does more
than that. There is some
thing about the combination
of cod liver oil and hypophos-
phites in SCOTS Emulsion
that puts new life into the
weak parts and has a special
action on the diseased lungs.

FrOCkS and Fans
For Summer Hops
BY KATHERINE ANDERSON.

One of the easiest problems for the
summer girl to solve, when planning
her wardrobe. is that of the dance
gown. For several seasons white has
been the only choice for the woman
who wished to be in good trim, and the
revival of delicate tints for evening
-ffecks is, therefore, welcome. With
the white gown variety could be Sc
cured only through the trimming, but
this year there are many patterns in
dainty colorings on which to exercise
ingenuity.
The white gown was d genuine trial
to the girl of dainty tastes, for its
beauty depended almost entirely upon
delicacy and sheerness. The daintily
figured patterns prevalent this year
can be initiated in cheaper weaves
with better effect. both as to wearing
qualities and general appearance.
The summer dancing gown is easily
planned and cheaply supplied because
simplicity is essential. If there is one
time more than another when a girl
should not look over-dressed it is at
the summer hop. Elaboration in trim
ming is especially bad Fleecy, filmy
effects are to be obtained, if possible.
The ribbon-trimmed frocks which
looks very we'll at a garden party is
too elaborate for the hop at the hotel
on the same night.
The Real summer Girls Dress.
Bellies of several seasons sometimes
indulge in the regulation party dress,
with decollete bodice and deliberately
dressed couture, but the real summer
girl wears simple frock, with the
popular Dutch neck, not too low, and
elbow sleeves, while she tucks a SIM
pie ribbon ornament or half-blow rose
in her hair.
In the figured materials, white and
cream nets, stamped in delicate Ores
den or pompadour flower designs, are
popular. These lend themselves ad-
no trimming, save very narrow ruch-
ings of the same material. On the skirt
these ruchings are arranged in fes-
toons to form scallops, and are not
over an in inch in width. They are
even narrower on the bodice and bell
shaped sleeves, and are employed in
various ways If the blouse is shirred
all over the tiny ruchings outline the
cording. If the waist only is shirred
at the neck and bloused at the waist
line, then the ruching is laid on the
front of the waist in the form of a
lovers knot, bowknot or a butterfly.
If bell sleeves are used. there are in
ner or half sleeves of valenciennes or
point de Paris lace. If the sleeves
are three-quarter puffs or elbow
length, they are finished with

Sometimes leather leggings are worn
over low shoes, but footgear for dress
up occasions seems to be the usual
thing, with the exception that shoes in
odd colors have crept into the field. For
example a gown of blue or a red rain
proof silk may be accompanied by lew
kid shoes in the same color. The shoes,
which have light extension soles and
high military heels, are made to order

smart Details for the Chic ChRuf-

Numerous are the smart details with
which the chic chauffeuse supplies her
self. Such things as stickpins and
belt buckles follow out the automobile
idea. One stickpin of gold and enamel
is made like a motor lamp, while Cog

Timely TrinketS for
Summer Tourists
Little Parting Gifts to Speed the
Parting Friend or Guest.

With tourists fitting out of town
and in, and friends starting on jaunts,
long and short, this is the season when
women feel the need of little gifts for
travellers. OF course. in hot weather
they turn to the shops for the fare
well gift. 1t is too hot to be indus
trious or ingenious.
If the traveller is ocean bound, an
book about the size of an ordinary
address book, bearing the inscription,

broadcloth or serge. They are made,
with the cutest vests imaginable, of
buff pique. The tight-fitting English
skirt is worn, and the surtout coat
is popular. The smartest buttons for
habits are shaped like the horn of the
saddle and are in ivory color. Stocks
of pique or madras are much worn,
and if a necktie is used. it is small
and narrow. Both black and white
sailors are popular, but the novelty
is q. tricorne Milan with pompon to
match the habit.
When the horsewoman travels and
wishes to take with her a derby hat,
which is considered smart for riding
to hounds, she carries it in a sole
leather case, exactly like a mans hat
box, but of smaller size. lined
with a harmonious tint of undress-
ed kid.
Riding crops are tipped with either
silver gold or braided leather, but
the newest handles show gun-metal
studded with jewels. and all the high
priced crops have a plate for = the

are stunning little stick pins in gun

sporting designs, and both silver stir

coat reveal the voluminous sleeves of

Stitched bands are used extensively on
these toilettes. though they are us
ually confined to a rather wide bias on
the skirt. which has an attached silk
lining and is made heavy and fiaring
at the bottom with canvas.
ROynI Blues and Automobile Reds.
Royal blues and automobile reds are
colors preferred for them, the red, in
the dim shades mentioned, achieving
dashing effects, with headgear i'm the
same tone. But along with this softer
sional coat or dress in scarlet, which,
with matching or white headgear. is
effective on the right person.
Lastly, for modest folk. there are
automobile gowns in novelty textures,
diagonal wools checked brilliantines
and plaid flannel. which. in models of
jacket and skirt. may be trimmed
with bands of thin leather. One stylish
costume so conceived is of brown wool
diagonal with bands of yellow kid.
Captivating features of the automo-
bile get-up are the caps, hoods and
hats with which beauty crowns the
whole. Immensely long wells are much
worn. They swath the hat and head in
innumerable ways, and somehow al
ways becomingly.
Hood. Instead of Veil.
Again. instead of the veil, a hood Of
pongee or thin silk may be worn over
a small hat, or the hood may be wired
to compose the whole headpiece and
