Small lingerie caps for babies are
showing quite a little variety. Time
was when the circular crown Joined TO
shirred null or embroidery, as the case
may be, fitting the head, and a ruching
around the face formed the one and
only model for these cool little bonnets-
Much more becoming are the new
styles. The circular crown piece ts

shirred null in strips Joined by inser-
ton fitting the head as in the old style,
the border coming in foi the display of
personal taste. One sweet little bonnet
showed a turned-back shaped piece in
quaint Dutch style. which was entirely
covered with tiny frills of ValeEciennes
edging. and a second. equally dainty
yet less elaborate, had the turn-ba elk
part simply made from a strip of hem
stitched lawn with tiny ruffie of lace
framing the face, a great Improvement

Simple or Elaborate Patterns.
Lingerie hats for larger children are
immensely popular and may be as
ella aborate or as simple as one pleases.
An exceedingly pretty hat was in white
null and Valenciennes lace, the crown
and under brim in the null shirred and
the outer brim of wide Valenciennes
lace falling over from two TO three
inches. The hat was to be worn off
the face and inside. resting on the hair.

Necklaces have become a necessary
part OF smart woman's costume this
summer, and are worn with high and
low neck dresses as well as with morn
ing gowns. OF course, they vary in
style from the simple bead necklets
worn with loose rising blouses to the
elaborate Oriental chains that complete
the dinner and evening toilet. with
every possible combination for lunch
con and afternoon wear that the gold
smith can devise. Some young women
are go extravat;ant in their tastes for
these dainty ornaments that they have
q necklace to match almost every gown
In their wardrobes- Fortunately for tho
fair ones who go in for this fad, these
trinkets are inexpensive, being only i'm
itations of the real stones, and many of
them may be purchased for oo and IS
cents.
To Match the Ribbons.
Beads of a color to mattel. the ribbons
or material of the morning robe are
donned upon rising. These beads are
round and are much more attractive
than the slightly fiattened ones. and are
made in long strands that hang loosely
about throat and shoulders, although

are preferred by some women. A neck

Domestic Machine Lingerie Equals in Effect Dearer
French Hand Work--All Short Sleeves

While handsome French lingerie Is
preferred by women who can afford the
luxury, our own domestic machine made
underwear often equals 1t in daintiness
of design IL not in f1neness of handi-
work. In the past few years fashions
IN under things have changed surpris-
ingly. For the conservative few among
the fair sex who still demand them are
to be had garments made up in the
regulation styles which have prevailed
for the last forty years. For the up
to-6iate woman, however, there are dain-
ty new effects, which by very reason of
their grace and beauty often shock the
old-fashioned feminine buyers.

The more like baby dolls clothes the

fact which the manufacturers have not
been slow to note and take advantage
of. Most Of the new nightgowns are of

The Chemise Pattern.
The very prettiest domestic gowns, too,
are made after the chemise pattern, to
slip over the head, though the French
designs still button in front or at the
side.
1t is difficult to buy long sieeved
nightgown in these days of improved
lingerie The compromise is a bell sleeve
to the elbow. but some of the newest
models have cunning short sleeves which
are more like little ruffics and justify
their names only by falling over the
upper arm TO a depth OF five or six
Sometimes these little sleeves are
made quite full, 50 that they fall In
graceful folds which change with every
movement of the arm.
OF Fine Nainsook.
A nightgown which would be charac-
terized as n dear by most of the fair
sex is OF very fine nainsook in the
chefnise pattern. The yoke is outlined
by inch wide strips of Val. insertion,
and yoke and sleeves have circular
motifs OF fine Cluny lace. The sleeves
are short bell affairs, ending well above
the elbow and finished with dainty Val
insertion and eGging. A beading carries
rather wide wash ribbon around the
neck; fl is tied in a crush bow at the
front. Two butterfly bows to match
are attached at either shoulder by
means of worked buttonhoIes.

Chickens for boiling now in market

ing chickens. srhey are absolutely fresh

young broilers and fowls for boiling or
frfcaSSeeing are the only poultry In mar
ket that have not been in cold storage
To boil a chicken in perfection, have 1t
dressed as for roasting; singe and truss
it: put 1t in a kettle over the fire with
enough hot water just to cover it, add
two good sized onions peeled and cut in
halves, two bay leaves, a sprig of pa-s-
ley, and two stalks of celery. four or
five pepper corns, heaping teaspoonful
of salt, and a half a pound of rather
fat salt pork. Cover the kettle closely
and let the chicken cook gently till
quite tender. Do not pierce It with a
fork to ascertain If it is cooked enough.
You can tell this by the flesh separating
from the end of the drumsticks. also
by pressing the flesh on the thigh and
breast with the end of your finger.

heaping tablespoonfuls Of butter in a
saucepan over the fire: when the butter

tablespoonfuls of sifted flour: stir the

In every country of the civilized
world Sisters of Charity are known.
Not only do they minister to the spir-
itual and Intellectual needs of the
charges committed to their care, but
they also minister to their bodily

With so many children to take care
of and to protect from climate and dis
ease, these wise and prudent Sisters
have found Peruna a never failing safe
guard.
DIR. Hartman receives many letters

EASY CLASSIFICATION.

Vacation schools for the children
ular In the big cities-perhaps as much
on account of the free excursions to
the country which some of them offer
as because of the educational advan-
tages. When one was opened last
summer in the Chicago Ghetto" the
first day brought to the schoolhouse
many times the number Of children
that could be cared for. The teachers
were in Quandary, as they were way
laid by mothers and fathers and by
the children themselves, pleading for
chance in the school," At last the
superintendent hit upon an easy meth
cd Of classification which would admit
the very poor and exclude all others.
The children had crowded into a
great assembly-room, and there he ad-
dressed them. Nov, children" he
said, first Of all want those Of you
whose fathers peddle from wagons to
raise your hands," X
There was rustic, and up shot
nearly a fourth Of the hands in the
room. Their owners waved them
proudly.
'That is fine" said the superintend-
ent. "You will all march out into the
hall and stand in line there.
"Now all those whose fathers ped
die from push-carts raise their hands" "
he said, when the first lot had gone
out.
Again there was good number, and
these, too, were sent to the hall.
"NoSs," said he, chow many Of you
have fathers who carry basket on
their shoulders or tray in trout o!
them and peddleT'
Nearly every remaining hand was
raised, and the superintendent smiled
II thought that would fix it." he said
"You are the children this school is
meant for. You will all be assigned
to seats by the teachers
Those he had sent into the hall were
the "aristocracy" Of the neighborhood
and they must yield to the poorest.

Nothing Too Good.

In the remote Businesses of the
Southern mountains there are many
ca abins in which sugar, even of the un-
refined variety, is unknown. Most
things go unsweetened, but for espe-
cial~ occasions there is reserved jug
of molasses or corn syrup, known IA
miliarly as '.long sweetening."
1t was in such cabin that an itin-
Grant preacher was called upon to pass
the night. The mountaineers were de-
lighted at the honor of entertaining
such distinguished company. When
supper time came, the usual repast of
biscuits and frizzled pork was increas-
ed by the addition Of boiled potatoes.
But when it came to pouring the cof.
fee, the hostess was in her glory. She
produced demijohn Of "long sweeten.
ing" and filed the minister's cup more
than half full of it.
The minister viewed this proceeding
with alarm.

protested, vehemently, "that will do

Famous Book Sold at Auction to an
American for 81 ,O5O.
At Sotheby's recently there was Of
fered for sale an imperfect copy Of
the Bible printed by r. Barker in 1913
the New Testament dated 161l-
valueless except for some MS. inscrip-
tions of more or less interest. The
Bible belonged to w. Sharp Ogden, Of
Rusholme, Manchester, whose grand
father, a well-known collector of
books and prints, bought it for SOW
ereign or two in 1850, and later re-
fused SIS for it.
On the reverse of the title of the
New Testament is William Shake
speare, 1914" and ON the end cover,
''Willm. Shakspere, off S. o. A. (Strat-
ford-on-AvoD, his Bible, 1613." There
are several other inscriptions, one OF
these showing that seventeen years
after Shakespeare's death it belonged
to John Fox, of Warwick. The catal-
ogue also suggests some connection
between Thomas Hall and James
Hall, to whom, early in the eighteenth
century, the Bible belonged, and John
Hall, who married Shakespeare's g
daughter. But no evidence on the
point is forthcoming.
The pedigree of the book was re-
garded by dealers as satisfactory. AS
to the Shakespeare signatures, opinion
varies within wide limits. The folio
was started at about $3.50, and
