Mrs. VanderbiIt,s Hat

Mrs, Nanderbilts Hat
Writing of the costumes worn by So
ciety women at the recent horse show
In New York n correspondent says:
Mrs Alfred G.. Vanderbilts hat was
one Of the most striking seen. It was
of snowy tulle, with a tremendous ali
grette standing over toward the left
at an angle OF As degrees. It was an
chored at the right front with one
big Beauty bud, after the prevailing
mode. In delicate colors and in deli
cate materials and with delicate
type of beauty it was pleasing-one
shudders at the memory of a sordid-
looking woman who stood staring at
her. The starer had on a similar shape
done In dark velvet, and, instead of
voiclng the latest chic, 1t seemed to-
have been left out In the rain and lost
its shape. 1t really suggested an old
sailor with u shrunken crown and a
weary brlm.
with this chapeau Mrs. Vanderbilt
wore white silk dress, embroidered in
the Japanese fashion, and u cream
broadcloth coat with bands of gold
galoon."
A Notable Wrap
One Of the most notable wraps worn
at this equine function is thus de-
scrlbed: 1T was of white panne vel
vet. 1t had the look of vestment,
sewed up at the sides to within six
inches of the long, straight shoulder
seam. 1t was finished with q sable
roll collar and embroidered in gold
quite the ecclesiastical effect The pc
culiarity was its utter lack of sleeves.
The wearer was very noticeable when
in drawing it on she pulled UP her ell
bow sleeve and left her arms bare half
way up to her shoulders. The width
Of the square-cut affair prevented any
more show of arm. 1t was quite large
enough to have put on over all without
using the arm-holes at ALL"
Mushroom Hats
In London mushroom hats with no
crown at all, but built upon bandeaus
to give the modish tilt, claim a place
among both large and small hats, and
call forth ingenious trimming devices.
For example, a mediums sized mush-
room hat in violet velvet has round the
edge of it's smooth top a wreath of
pansies exquisitey embroidered in all
the purplish pansy coorings. Folds
of violet tulle cover the bandeau which
lifts the crown from the head and tips
it forward, and ostrich tips in shaded
violet are set under the brim at the
back and the left side, curling down
upon the hair.
Baby Bell
o Baby, dainty Baby Bell.
How fair she grew from day to day!
What woman nature filed her eyes.
What poetry within them lay,
Those deep and tender twilight eyes,
So full of meaning pure and bright,
AS if she yet stood in the light
OF those oped gates of Paradise.

either an embroidery or lace flounce.
On the contrary, the skirt is finished
with a deep flounce of its own material,
and this is embroidered by hand in
beautiful floral designs, and finished
at the edge by scallops also embroi-
dered by hand. 1t is such work as one
sees on the hand embroidered waists
and most alluring.
Fried Celery
Cut small solid stalks of celery into
lengths of two inches each. Soak them
in cold water for half an hour and
throw them into salted boiling water.
Boil for five minutes, drain and dry
on a napkin or towel Put two table,
spoonfuls of butter or olive oil in
frying pan, add little chopped on
ion, put in the celery a little at
time, and stir until it IS brown. Drain
off the fat in taking out and serve on
a napkin.
To Revive Wilted Roses
Wilted roses can be revived in the
following manner Put the stems of the
roses in a tumbler of water and then
place the tumber and roses in a YES
sci of sufficient size to allow the en-
tire bouquet to be covered. Cover the
vessel tightly and leave undisturbed
for "a hours. BY that time the roses
will be found all fresh and invigor-
ated as if just plucked from the
bushes, with every petal covered with
artificial dew.
Latest in Sachets
The latest thing in large sachets is
made of pale-violet broche silk, full Of
powdered Florentine orris. And
they're as fragrant as they are large.
The lining is of white broche, a big
