The following letter is only one Of

beyond question that Lydia e. Pink

J ish Women,
CretOnne and the Summer
Home-The Critical
Lady

The oma who is planning to fur
nish a summer home ought fully to
bear in mind the merits of c%rctonne.
1t is cheap, attractive in coloring
and, above all, cool looking. Nothing
can be p~rettier for a bedroom, for in
stance, than n white wicker set up
holstered in pink and white cretonne
bearing a rose pattern. The bed,
dressing table and bureau, of course,
are of white enamel. Very often the
walls are hung with cretonne instead
of paper. There is a new idea, too,
which consists in making n paneling of
plain colored cretonne on figured walls,
and vice versa. These panelings are
inclosed with strips of molding after
the fashion of tapestry.
But it is not only in the boudoir that
one finds cretonne popular. 1t invades
even the drawing room of the summer
home, and the latest-the very latest
thing is the cretonne covered piano.
This, of course, has the regulation
wooden frame, but in addition there is
a cunningly fitted slip of the same
dainty material that covers the rest of
the furniture. Rooms done in blue
and wlite material are considered very
swagser this season, especially when
combined with pale yellow or white
woodwork.

she was tremendously clever because
she didn't say much. h would only
look at us with n eyebrow raised
when we made any remark or recited
our lessons, and she used TO smile in
such an exasperating, superior way. l

est Of spirits to enjoy it. Well, at the
end of the second twostep the whole

young woman looking me over in that

Just sat on the edge Of a chair and
froze everybody with her manner be

For my own part, | remember very
distinctly a friend Of the family. she
used to come and call on my mother
mainly for the purpose of criticising
and finding fault with everything the
dear soul did. She would ask to see
my mothers new dresses and then i'm
mediately point out that the material
was out of style and ask why the
shoulder wrinkled the way it did. BY
the way, no one had observed the wrin
kle at all before, but we all became
painfully aware of it. Then she would
stay to lunch and tell what the cook
ought to do and ask what was the mat
ter with the pudding sauce. Next she
would inquire into the doings of the
children and wonder why on earth
my mother was so foolish as to cliI
my hair on the ends when every one
knew that smuggling was the only thing
No one escaped. She passed us all IL
critical review, and when she had gon'
we all felt tired and Disguised with lif,

Gay and brilliant Seasons ut the Nn-

Almost every American girl looks

paints its balls, its dinners. receptions

The American girls Imagination does
not lead her wrong. In no capital of
Europe is the best social circle 50 Gcm-

of Washington.
Mrs. Roosevelt and her aids as well
as certain ladies of the diplomatic
corps are interested in giving Il digui-
fed, somewhat conventional tone to
Washington society. On the other hand,
however, there is a dashing young set
that wishes society to be gay and jolly,
dignity or no dignity. Thus far prob
ably the lively young set has the best
of it, especially as one of its leaders
is Alice. Mrs. Roosevelt's own step

Baseball.

The Deeaturs came up from New Or
leans last Sunday with the intention
of taking at least one game OF the two
which were to be played with our Pei
leans, and in Sundays contest sue
eeeded in putting up a very good ar
ticle Of ball, as the following score
will show:
Decaturs o 0 0 0 O. 1
Pelicans. Q q o o p
Batteries Decaturs-Fucich and Grenier
Pelieans-Nargassan and Tircait. Umpire
Tearney.
Mondays game also went to the
Birds by d score of II to in the most
one-sided contest seen on the local
diamond this season. The attempts
of the visitors to play the national
game were miserable, while the lam
guage and actions of Douglass, who
essayed to play third base, were very
obnoxious to the small crowd of spec
tatOrs present.
In agreeable contrast to Monday S
tiasco was the 18th of July game be-
tween the St. Thomas team, of As
sumption, and the Pelicans. The Wis
itors had the reputation of never hav-
ing been defeated and their friends
we're out in full force to cheer them on
TO victory over the locals. St. Thomas
was evidently asleep, though, as he
failed to come to the aid Of his name
sakes when they needed him most, and
they were out batted and out-played
at every stage Of the game.

their lineup some Of the old Nine Star

crease of S67 900 as compared with the

issuing dividend checks to the stock

be cited in proof of the solid and pros
porous condition of the Bank of Don
