LINGERIE sIouses.

Lingerie blouses are holding their
own with vengeance Batiste and
Persian lawn, swiss and a dozen 9th
er materials-white for the most part
are used. A few are made of exqui-
site pale-colored "all-over" batistes,
the touch of white of the embroidery
softening the color still more instead
of accentuating it.
Simple blouses, for morning wear,
with linen skirts or suits. are gaining
in favor. One of the simplest of these
simpler styles, just trimmed enough
to keep it from being severely plain,
is pictured-pattern 1854
The yoke is trimmed with cross
bands of insertion and the lower part
is eased onto the yoke by clusters OF
little tucks. The blouse buttons down

And you can't have too many of such
blouses in your summer outfit.

but she could not keep her eyes off of
Langdon and the fiashily dressed girl
in his company. They had taken a
table in the center of the hall and
wine began to flow freely. Cissey
talked loudly and finally, apparently
at the suggestion of Langdon, leaped
upon the table, displayed a very loud
pair of hose and danced one of the
rather vulgar dances then popular on
the stage amid the applause of the
crowd.
BY that time, however, DR.. Horton
had paid the bill, and, without ap-
parently taking notice of the doings
in the other room, led his wife out by
side entrance, where the carriage
was waiting. He looked at his watch
and sat musing for a moment, while
the carriage ratified over the pave

Pearls sympathetic heart was
touched and from the gay dining
room they went to the poor little
room of the girl. She sat down by
the girls bedside and tried to com
fort her. but nothing that she said
seemed to soothe the sufferer. She
took her hand and smoothed her hair.
Wont you confide in me?" she
asked kindly.
The girl shook her head. 81 will

The doctor stood, behind his wife

change her mind.

whispered words, and then started
back violently when she heard his
name. She almost cried out.
DO you know him?" the girl asked.

bling, "he-he is-a stranger to me-"

Burial Of NanoIaon

Yes, bury me deep in the infinite sea,
Let my heart have a Iimitless grave;
free
AS the course of the tempest-wave.
AS far from the stretch Of all earthly
Were the fathomless depths OF my
mind;
And the GIBBS and flows of my single soul
Were as tides to the rest of mankind.
Then my, ,briny pail shall engirdIe the
world
As in life did the voice of my fame
And each mutinous billow that's sky
ward curled
Shall seem to re-echo my name
That name shall be storied in annals Of
crime
In the utteTmost corners of earth:
Now breathed as a curse-now a spell
word sublime.
In the gloriied land of my birth.
Az, plunge my dark heart in the infinite
sea.

Shall less than ocean his sepulchre be

Noted For Her Beauty

The countess of Northbrook. until
a short while ago better known as Wis
countess Barring. is looked upon as
one of the handsomest women in Lon
don society. During the life of the
late earl, says the Tattler she always
spent much of her time with him at
his country home in Hampshire. and
there shone as the most brilliant host
ess in the country, arranging the
shooting parties entirely herself and
experimenting the very smallest de-
tail as to the comfort of her father-in-
laws guests. The earl was devoted to
her and was never tired of showing
off her portraits and pictures, of
which he had no fewer than fifty diff
ferent kinds, and always talked of her
as his beautiful daughter-in-law."

sanltarlums for plants

iums for plants. They are to be found
in the uptown neighborhoods where
families are in the habit of going away
for the summer, boarding up their
houses and dispensing with the ser
vices of caretaker. Many of these
families do not hesitate to leave the
cats that have protected their houses
from mice all winter to find either
their living in the streets or stranguIa-
ton in the pound when the house is
closed for the summer; but they
would never dream of leaving their pet
plants to starve. Fashionable florists
do not like the term boarding places

Girl in White Here AGAIN.


woman Of fashion asks: What is
the white linen grip Dear me- says
she, you just stirred us all up over
Alice blue. watermelon pink, and such
unheard-of things. Now it's the girl
In white. Who Is She"
"A girl who returns every year.
said the woman who knows "She is
as perennial as May flowers or spring
poems. She is girl of taste"
This season the girl in smartest
white chooses linen for her fabric.
The white linen girl is said to have
originated in London, where the Prin-
cess Victoria set the fad of wearing
white linen a year ago.
To be white linen girl one must
wear white linen exclusively. This
applies not only to the very heavy
white everyday suits, but to the del
icately embroidered evening dresses
as well and to the lovely piazza and
garden party gowns. They can be
made very sheer and as expensive as
the most extravagant can desire.
White linen or white eyelet must
extend to the parasol, hat, shoes, belt
and stock. Some extremists even car
ry white linen bags.
White golf materials of the year
are linen, eheviot, heavy white can
vas suiting pique and even denim.
The object is to get a material that
will not grow limp. and there can be
nothing too heavy lor the purpose.
There come linen goods thick as a
board, and just the thing for the golf
field. With these go the knitted caps
or the stiffest white linen sailors.

Why not?" she asked herself. why

Dr. Horton was man with a broad
and liberal mind. He loved his wife
and he studied her moods. He saw
with what innocent pleasure she play
ed with the fire and resolved that, if
he could help her and stand between
her and temptation, he would. In the
club that day, he had heard something,
a bit of Langdons barroom braga-
dacio, probably, augmented by rumor.
On the impulse of the moment his first
thought was to seek out this man and
give him a sound thrashing, but better
council prevailed. Nor did he go
home and raise fuss with his wife.
He was far too good a general for
that.

with a touch of finality in his voice,
