scARFs FOR COOL NIGHTS.

Physicians att summer resorts unite in asserting that indiscretions in dress are responsible8of rrnore cases of ill., ness than any. other two causes com bined. The summer girl takes every imaginable chance for the sake of be- ing airily gowned Particularly true is this in the evening when she goes to a hop or for promenade, exposing her throat and cheststo the dam night air.
 Yet this year lthere is no excuse for not providing some dainty covering for the low cut gown or a fieeoy yet pro-. tecting wrap for the delicate throat, Tn the trousseau of a June bride, d ia vored acquaintance was shown a lace shawl to match each of the filmy evefl- ing frocks-the exquisite lacy shawls such as Southern gradames wore. So the girl who is fortunate enough to possesA Sne e Gs2se lengths of old lace will do well to bring it into use for protection agaips cool, damp air, after the sun has made his goodnight bow
 There Is a great revival of Spanish lace shawls,' and scarfs of all shapes are being worn either in black or cream color, and many of them are dyed in a soft pastel shade. Another fetching lace shawl is of coffee-colored silk Cluny shaped like fichu with long, tapering ends. Cream-colored net is also outlined in fichu shape with heavy Arabian lace.
 The fad of fashionable women with a comfortable allowance for dress ac- cessories is an Assyrian shawl. This is a long scarf of black or white coarse net in geometrical mesh and is thiclxly spangled with gold or silver tinsel These can readily be made from a length of spangled net such as, was used during the winter in glistenfng evening frocks.
 Lighter even than thee sparkling gauge shawls, the fiilmy liberty scarf has lost none of its popularity. The newest of these show stripes and bars Of silk crepe in the same or contrast ing pastel shades, and borders of glori- ously colored Persian designs. One specially facinating scarf has crepey scarlet polka dot on a white silk ground, and Is finished with a deep Persian border in which scarlet is the predominating color. Scarfs of silk mousseline with scalloped and em- broldered edges and embroidered floral patterns on the end are charmingly picturesque with summer evening frocks. Another simple but effective scarf is made from the sheerest French null or batiste, and is hemstitched at the ends or scalloped and buttonholed all the way around. "-'
 One of the loveliest novelties in shawls is a delictely tinted cashmere. A length of three yeards is edged with l2-inch silk fringe and at either end, extending we'll up into the body of the shawl are woven huge fulI-blown roses and a shawl of lavender revolves it. seIt into border of baby-blue blos- soms.
 But it is the feather boa to which, atter all, the woman clings at the most becoming protection for her throat and shoulders. Dainty little neck piecas Ike the fiat fur tippes worn during the winter, are made of maribout in white or pastel blues or pinks, while fasten- ca Tn among the downy feathers are tiny curls of ostrich tips in black. Iav- hder or some contrasting color. Flowers such as primroses or one larger Ameri- can beauty rose are also nestled in the nlarlpout at the side of the throat- Washington Star.
