THIS is a season of linens. 1t has
been-this worship of the flax
growing passion for several years,
but this present summer will probably
see it's elimination.
If one will one may go clothed en-
tirely. with the exception of shoes and
stockings. in this fabric. There are
linen hats, linen underwear, linen
gloves. belts, ties, parasols, spats
waists, gowns and coats for all and
every occasion. The days when linen
gowns We're confined to the stiff white
or tan coat suit, to be worn in the
morning or for sporting occasions, Is
gone. A summer ball dress can as
appropriately be made of linen as the
morning shirt waist suits, the garden

tive Iaces are when made UP In this
way, although here again conservative
individuals cry out at the desecration
and contend that IL lace is beautiful 1t
should be treated as such and not In
any way combined with anything else,
even I'm contrast. Conservatism in this
age of the world must needs bow to
the caprice of the moment, however.
and so the most costly of laces are
slashed into and made up with vastly
inferior designs or with materials that
are comparatively inexpensive.
The small flchus, pelerines and capes,
that are in any sense of the word
wraps, are most attractive this season.
Made of chiffon, silk net lace and
feathers they add very much to the
finished appearance of smart gown
and are most becomingI. The fchus
with pink ruchings of taffeta made to
cross in front and with big ends that
can be left to fall to the hem OF the
skirt at the back are worn with after
noon gowns, and are also made as
trimming for evening gowns. The
fashion is picturesque and very at
tractive and when the hat is the same
coloring a white gown gains new vir-
tues and added distinction.
All black taffeta coats are still fash
ionable and smart. These with hand
run tucks and pleats, and with touch
of colored embroidery, also handwork.

useful palmer black taffeta wrap still

of the finest lace and with the most
charming colorings of chiffon liberty
satin. Flowing silk wraps are also III
style, but these are smarter made in
the long loose covert or fitted at the
back, with loose fronts. Sleeves in long
wraps require to be of large size to
prevent any injury to the sleeves of the
gown that is worn under the wrap, and
in summer the loose mantle without
sleeves is more of favorite than the
wrap made with sleeves, no matter
what may be the size. There must
never be, however, any economy of ma
teral, for the mantle, cloak, wrap or
coat, whichever it may be, must be
large enough to completely cover the
gown.
Lace that has just hint of cream
color, or the real old lace, is always
becoming next the face so that rutties
and jabots of lace are used with great
effect on these elaborate evening wraps.
The color scheme is also carefully
studied, and even a woman with no
pretensions to beauty will often receive
compliments upon her charming APP
pearance, when, garbed in some dainty
ball gown and with wrap of chiffon
trimmed heavily with lace, she is
equipped for the evenings gaiety.
Chiffon CLOTH material which, like
chiffon has received such unanimous
approval that the demand for it never
ceases, is favorite material for
summer mantle. Lined with silk, it is
possible both for the afternoon and
evening mantle and for the loose coat.
1t is heavier than chiffon and more
durable and there does not have to be

severe order, however, double breasted,
loose fitting in front at the back half
fitting, and with belt across the back.
Red, White and Blue
White with blue, "a red velvet collar
and cuffs, blue with red, red With
darker red or black are three color
combinations. These coats are also
made in cloth, lined with silk and with
gold or silver buttons They are rather
difficult garments to designate. Hardly
in order for automobile coats, they are
too severe for elaborate carriage or
theater wraps. and yet have so much
style and individuality about them as
to make it seem absolutely essential to
happiness to possess one. They will be
found most useful for driving or as n
light summer wrap to slip on after a
game of tennis or golf, and as they, like
such garments of the severe tailor
order, require to be most carefully
fitted, they will not become too popu
lar as might be anticipated for so SIM
pie a model.
The summer evening wrap to be worn
over the summer evening gown is an
exquisite creation and in it's way quite
as elaborate and expensive as the win
ter opera cloak. Velvet and fur are
tabooed as unreasonable, but in other
respects there is little difference and
the expense must surely be the same
excepting where the sable or ermine
opera cloak comes into question.
Abundant Material in Wraps

With the coat suits are worn, Of
course, linen blouses, some of them of
heavy quality, but preferably of lighter
quality than the suit The tendency
this year is to use rather fine hand
kerchief linen for these blouses. In
sertions of narrow lace--which should

tucks and embroidery are the principal
ecoration for these waists. The heavy
waists done i'm solid embroidery are not
so fashionable as they We're, as the
quantity of machine made waists OF
this kind has made them too universal
a possession.
Linen waists. though more beautiful
than the cotton ones, and though they
wear almost indefinitely, have the oh
jectionable quality of mussing more
easily than those OF cotton, Handker-
chief linen, unless of the very fine quail

dazzllngly attractive. But for the per-

taffetas these are made up, and are very
effective in spite of their decidedly odd
appearance.
Queer dull pinks and creams and

an odd, bright and 1t must be admitted

is immensely popular. Light gray is
very satisfactory color, especially
with the touch of pink or mauVe

The lace coats entirely of lace, or OF
lace with cloth, chiffon or SILK are
luxures. for the cost must be great
when real lace or even fine imitation
is used. with the linen costumes,
trimmed with Irish lace, there is SO
little linen used in the coat as to give
the appearance of it's being entirely OF
lace. and exactly the same erect is 10

Chantilly and the fine French laces are
not suitable excepting for the most
elaborate style of wrap, and these are
made UP over chiffon. The black over
white shows the pattern of the lace TO
greatest possible advantage, while
under white pale pink or blue does the
same.
Combining two or even three kinds
OF lace in the one wrap is very smart

The Reward of Public Service.

 Wood" said the President to the doc- tors. in anything like the proportion that services such as his would have be been ,so rewarded e.s in any other country Of the first rank in the world"
 Let us see what We have done for Wood: Seven years ago he was Il Colonel of volunteers in war the ac- ed about ten weeks In six months he became a Brigadier and Major General of Volunteers. Less than three years later he had become a Brigadier Gen eral of the regular establishment, and for two years he has been q Major Gen. eral. The salary of his rank Is not bad; the retired list Is a great con- venience; the distinction of his rank Is more than riches to a healthy minded man. and his rank is higher than that of men who went through the civil war with honor and have been in the regular establishment ever since ernment have done? It could have given him more money It is only q few days since the President said that { after man had enough money to take decent care of himself and his family he ought not to W ant more. and Ma jor General Is decently provided for. It could grant him title of nobility which his posterity-who might be worthlesS-would Inherit from him. Does any American covet that sort of
 To the doctors the President said that the foul assaults and attacks" made upon General Wood were large Iy because they grudged the fact that this admirable military officer should have been a doctor. A more grotesque perversion of the opposition to the promotion of his friend could not have been invented. Let us suppose that d man whose life had been spent in . line of the aImy were made Surgeon General, would the, opposition of tse medical profession have been properly described as foul assaults and attacks made by men who grudged that this a soldier?
