the ribbon remnant. A most becoming bow
knot for the front of the couture Is very
easily evolved from inch-wide satin ribbon.
Round hat wire of the larger size Is tightly
wound with the ribbon and then formed
into FULL rounding bow knot with two
loops on either side. Lying on the hair
and standing out like butterfly antennae
from the center of the knot are SWEEP
peas. These are built from double fold
of the ribbon an inch in length. which Is
rolled over the end Of a finger and fastened
In a tight knot at its lower edge. Each
sweet pea Is attached to fine hat wire
wound with the satin ribbon.
Still another method Of using up ribbon
ends Is in the form OF q pad to be worn
under the all-popuar lingerie waist, to
make the fullness stand out. The pad covers
the bust and Is held by ribbons tied al
the back, or by tiny safety pins, fastening
the ends of the pad to the undervest. Rib
bon three inches in width Is required to
make a pad of four puffs, two on either
side. If wider ribbon is employed, only two
puffs are necessary, and the pad Is tapered
off at either end to look like bats wings
A single thickness Of sheet cotton wad-
ding fills each of the puffs, which are Joined
al the center IN a small knot of ribbon. The
pad should be long enough to reach quite
to the under-arm pit. Sachet Is sometimes
sprinkled on the sheet of cotton.
A fad of one summer girl has been to
wear sachet heart of lawn in the front OF
her lingerie waists. Many of her sisters
are copying this in ribbon to lay under
their bodices for fall wear. Satin ribbon
three-quarters Of an inch in width Is laced
together to form square. From this is

Summer wardrobes are beginning to show
the wear and tear attendant upon an excep-
tionally hot season. Pressing and cleaning
have revived tailored skirts, but continual
laundering has played havoc with shirt
waists. Just now one or-more separate
blouses. therefore, are the crying need Of
almost every woman. to tide her over until
the fall dressmaker arrives.
The shirt waist Of the hour, both for
morning and afternoon wear, Is one Of the
most becoming garments that has been
evolved by Dame Fashion in some time As
model of charming simplicity it is an out
come, doubtless. Of the all-popular lingerie
blouse. which has served its purpose admir-
ably during the warm months.
Perhaps the most important feature of the
fall blouse Is the sleeve. Tailored shirt
waists show plain shirt sleeve, with only
slight fullness in its entire length and q
short turn-back cuff. Paris models display
none of the voluminous -o'-mutton eff
fects which were promised by the first sum-
mer costumes. The sleeve with full puff to
tho elbow and tight-ftting cuffs is still q
great favorite; but for the more elaborate
waists elbow sleeves, with or without far
ing, turn-back cuff. are by all odds the most
popular.
AS for the waist itself, all sorts of lingerie

BRAIN TAX.
Woman and the Worlds Progress-A
Doctors Indictment

From the London Mail.
The neglect by women Of their proper
role in life, their adoption Of mental occu-
patton in place OF their domestic duties, I'M.
proper methods Of education, and the NIL
grafton from the country to the town were
among the main reasons adduced by DR.. Z.
Bulkeley Hyslop. physician to the Bethlem
Hospital. in an address which he delivered
yesterday before the British Medical Asso-
citation at Leicester for the alarming growth
of insanity in the British race.
when we come to take actual survey OF
the present position OF our people," said DR..
Hyslop, I'VE see that a remarkable transfor-
nation has taken place. We have passed
from the natural state to an artificial one of
brain activity with all Its attendant evils.
Our system of education IS, In fact. respon-
sible for improving the population off the
face of the country districts.
Ever since the passing OF the education
act of 1870 We have been striving after the
unattainable. The brain-tax on the rising
generation has become moro and more trk-
some, and the sum OF paupensm, over.
crowding. and insanity has increased by
leaps and bounds far beyond any thing ever
before known In the history of the empire.
and today we are faced with the question
whether the mental and physical health Of
the rising generation is not OF more i'm
portance than the mere accumulation OF
knowledge
On the one hand we were faced by the
problem of over-education, and on the other
hand the fixing by the trade unions of the
standard or energy according to the capac-
ty of the very worst was doing a great
deal to injure the physical condition Of the
people.
But the race Is not only suffering from tho
unphysiological habits Of the male part OF
the population. Although much is being
done to improve the fitness Of the female
population to become wives and mothers,
there was tendency on their part to de-
part from the role assigned to them by ma
ture. In point Of fact, the obligations OF
motherhood in all sections are being more
and more neglected.
But what of the future? asked DR.. Hys-
lop. It was fact that the more woman as
PRED to exercise her mental functions the
less capable she became Of generating a
healthy stock. Since 1901 there had been an
enormous increase in the number Of women
engaged in commercial and mental occupa-
tions. There could be no doubt whatever
that the race would benefit more by woman
resuming her natural place than by the re-
aliza ton of any scheme Of universal suf-
frage. ?
In another section of the congress the use
of alcohol was discussed. One doctor said
that next to consumption alcohol was the
most common cause Of death. All doctors at
any rate ought to make 1t a rule to give up
alcohol.

silk heavily embroidered in mercerized cot
ton or floss. Large designs such as punches
OF WfStaria blossom, chry santhemumS and
odd conceits showing groteSQue beetles. etc,
ornament the front of waist patterns. Very
lovely is a blouse of white habutai silk on
display at an exclusive oriental shop. Clus-
tiers of apple blossoms embroidered In the
softest pink with delicate green leaves cover
the entire front Of the waist. Mexican
drawn work is also used TO trim these light
silks.
Have Another Season.
All-over lace blouses. introduced the lat
ter part of last winter, are to have a re-
newed popularity this coming season. They
are not only very graceful little bodices.
but they can be crushed into any kind of a
wrap and come out looking as fresh as new.
notable feature of the new offerings is
the combination of various laces Heavy
laces will serve as insertion and trimming
on all-overs of fine mesh, while delicate
Valenciennes and point de Gazewil set off
the more striking Cluny and Irish crochet
braids.
All sorts of bolero effects are obtained by
the application of insertion. One dainty
blouse of cream-colored oriental net has
the Dutch neck and bolero jacket effect
outlined by a heavy cream olored fnser-
ton. Frillings of lace that closely resemble
lace. A lining OF tarlatan holds out the full
leg-o'-mutton sleeves which end at the ell
bow in a band of insertion with lace friIl-
ing. Short bishop sleeves for these waists

ouble ruff1es of net

Written for The Star.
Have you ever thrown yourself on the bed
In the middle of the day for a short nap
and then been Weakened suddenly to dazed
condition, and feeling more tired than when
You laid down? Starting about your duties
once more, however, you find they have
ceased to drag. and that, after all, your
snatch Of rest has done you much good
This Is the way the majority of vacation
lists feel when they return from two or
three flying weeks spent in the country or
at the seashore. They had just gotten into
the spirit of rest, and having good time,
when, presto! back they are at the old
grind and the same old scenes. The familiar
surroundings all have colorless look. The
furniture IN the home seems to have grown
shabby In their absence The walls OF the
office or school room look more barren and
gray than ever. Even the family and
friends have changed their habits. They
begin to wonder why these people are not
so ideal as they pictured them In those
care-free vacation days.
And all this comes because they have not

effects hold their own. They will be worn
as much after chill breezes set in as they
have been the past months In fact fashion
writers predict that they will not be dis
carded even for the winter season. A late
importation from London is built OF hand
kerchief linen, edged with lavender flower
border and hem. Finely tucked muslin
forms box pleat down the front and is met
on either side by the figured border, the col
or ribbon. Tiny gathers or tucks full the
material into shoulder straps of the hand
kerchief edging. and the same lavender bor-
der is employed for the collar and three
bands of trimming on the elbow cuff.
Something Practical.
The girl or woman who Is considering a
practical morning waist will find heavy
white madras or light imitation flannel
the most serviceable material she can
choose II for wear at outdoor sports a
smart shirt waist is of flannel in one of the
pastel shades. The neck Is finished in q
broad, turn-back collar, with a Windsor tie
fastened in sailor knot. Large pearl but
tons set off the front box pleat and the wide
cuff of the sleeves.
One Of the simplest and most effective
models for stout madras or pique Is a
waist tucked in four wide pleats from
shoulder seam to bust line. The fullness
slightly over a deep girdle. Instead of the
usual box pleat down the center of the
front. a wide strip Of handsome machine
embroidery conceals the fastenings. The
Sleeve which consists of elbow cuff with
full pulled upper, is very simple and easily

as serge or wool yelling in any color.

In Velvet Ribbon.
Black velvet ribbon, that most charming
OF all decorations, Is likely to be enor-
mously used in old and new ways.
Shower rosettes, rosettes Of loops enor-
mously long, falling like a fringe from a
stiff center, is one new arrangement for
hats and bodices. Upon the wide, ungoreo
skirts of little girls the ribbon velvet will
be put on in the old even rows, or In rows
of graduating widths
The passion for embroidery, and especial
~ the expensive hand sort, is on the In
crease If anything. 1t Is likely to be much
used upon the smartest bodices of school
girls, upon deep silk and linen and batlste
collars and cuffs, and upon the girdles ano
shoulder straps of suspender frocks. rms
last style is quite too convenient to be done
away with, but the Harvesting Of the new
suspender frocks will be broadened to SIM
ulate almost bodice effects. With indiffer-
ent figures the plain, straight bands are
often very trying making a girl seem more
shapeless than she Is
Against the Stays.
Touching upon the figure. it appears that
there Is q rebellion against putting very
young girls in corsets. Many authorities
claim that the straight jacket stiffens
young bodies too soon. a number of the
dressmakers use heavy boning in the
dress bodice. to take the place Of the cor
set If girl is stout she likewise wears a
boned underbodice, to which her petticoat
Is sewn to obviate additional bands. or her
corset is slight affair Of wide, soft tape.
The boned underbodices, which are In soft
finished batiste, are cut carefully as the
outside waist and cordings are sometimes
used instead of whalebone
The ready-made boned and corded waists
are heavier and clumsier. but all such bod
les are to be preferred for young girls to
the regular corset, as they do not admit OF
lacing.
Early styles shown in shirt waists dis
play both mannishly plain and trimmed ef-
fects. One novel notion was exploited upon
a green flannel waist. whose stiff cuffs and
collar were of white linen, made to button

Some New Toques for Fall.

From the August Millinery Trade Review.
Some new toques have appeared Many
recall the torpedo shape, but less accentu-
ated than formerly: others have wide block
ed crowns and soft-looking narrow brlms.
Amazon shapes are mostly confined to felts.
and for fall more particularly there are
fresh varieties of sailor shapes made to
look smart by the addition of plumes OF
feathers and draped arrangements round
the crown.
The way In which feathers and other out
side trimmings are arranged depends good
deal on the height of the crown. This
should be accomplishing use a word
often in the mouths of French miliinsfs-
not much overtopped by the trimming. Ow-
ing to the upward wave given to the sides
and backs of the brims of most OF the
smart hats. and to the way in which the
shapes are mounted on high bandeaus.
their effect is decidedly jaunty, and even
when not exceeding the medium in size.
they look larger than they are. especially
when a comparatively high crown allows
of their being trimmed correspondingiy
