ers are cut quite low into deep V.
When there is fullness at the sides or nacK'
as plaits, small bands are used to hold these
together, which are not infrequently placed
rather high in front and the sides to give
the Empire Of short wasted lines
The vest does not extend to the end OF the
garment on many of the very smartest mod
els, but terminates at the top OF the glrole,
thus in another way Stimulating the graceful
Empire outline
The sleeves are either cut elbow length or
trife longer, from the elbow to the middle
of forearm OF course these come in for
ornamentation and are moderately large.
A collar and cuffs of baby Irish crochet In
any of the new shapes, edged with Valen-
ciennes lace, make a most dainty summer
addition to a pony suit
A great deal of attention is given to the
back as there is perfectly straight sweep
from the shoulder to the hips.
Very frequently where the back joins the
side there will be little slash about three
or four inches long. extending along the
seams The trimming is put ON so as to
form an oblong OF box effect and this slight
slashing at the corners emphasizes the out
line, scrolls being used at the corners or
straight band effects.
Buttons Of fanciful design and hue are

considerable pressing, the firm business-like
kind that only man can give
MODES OF SMART DISCRIMINATION
On the spring editions of the pony suit
one sees some really fetching schemes OF
decoration.
Very Frenchy models are cut hip-ength
all around save in the 'front.' where they are
short, just covering the edge of the princess
corselet skirt. The sides hang quite loose
and are cut circular
Band trimming largely predominates in
the embellishments employed for pony coats.
Soutache and silk braids are variously ma
nipuated into fanciful patterns. Bands of
silk on voiles, mohairs and summer weight
serves, especially those striped or checked,
show off advantageously. silk also forms
the vest, collar and cuffs and as finish a
band of silk braid will be called into play.
Gayly plated bands of silks and velvets
for vest effects, collar and cuffs are quite
smart on plain fabrics. Black velvet shows
off well as narrow vest on white or pale
colored materials, outlined by silk braid or
lace entredoux. Narrow frills of lace are
also put on the vest and collar, Valenciennes
having first choice.
Some pony jackets are fitted close to the

med with silk. or heavy lace insertion could
be utilized.
A pony coat that clings more to the outline
of the figure is shown just below the model
just described.
Here, the material may be of most suit
able spring or summer weave in linen, silk
wool or cotton. In color it is a new shade
of deep pink, the only decoration being m
sets of heavy cream lace in the form of ovals
mounted on silk, chiffon or silk muslin chos-
EN- according to the material Of suit.
This little suit of gray moire with its
touches of green silk braid was seen the 9th
er morning at a Lenten service, and is de
lightfully suggestive Of spring. The coat, as
you see, Is almost square In shape.

an attractive addition.
SMART POINTS

cellent suggestions, both in the way or ma
terials and design.
Discreet touches of black lend dasn ana
smartness to many of the best models for
spring and summer wear regardless OF what
the material or style Of the gown may be-
Black and white effects, you know, are COM
ing in for dressy wear.
The charming little pony suit in the ieft-
hand corner is fashioned of bungalow suit
ing, selling at 60 cents a yard, and is trim
med with bands of black taffeta. The back
is cut into three parts, there being centre
panel. narrow at top and faring towards tine
bottom. This detail is outlined by band
of taffeta. that terminates at the side where
the straight fronts are joined. Bands are
added to form collar and the oblong revers
are covered with silk. Buttons and SILK
loops decorate the lower portion of the front
tabs.
The sleeves are oddly treated and show
norton of the blouse The upper half of
the skirt is made In panels, the lower por-
tion being laid in plaits. The hat OF black
chip is encircled with tea roses and pale blue
glace ribbon stretches across the crown.
The same model was copied in pale blue

y E are tossing bouquets again in the
path of the jaunty short coat.

| I~I path of the jaunty short coat.
Last summer. you remember,
RSASEE2l long semi-fitting coats had full
S@4- sway and women went about re-
sembling bean-poles enveloped in varicolored
linens, Nevertheless these ungraceful gar
ments were the proper caper and women con-
sidered themselves badly treated indeed
were they unable to follow the prescribed
fashion.
AS one might expect the reaction has set
in. Thus we are regaling ourselves with sew
eral chic styles of abbreviated wraps, the
most noteworthy example being variously
called the pony" Caraco, or French box
coat.
For those who are not familiar with the
outline of this model in association with its
name, let me say that 1t Is a semi-fitting
hip-length Jacket, so cut as to make the
wearer appear short WASTED. Some of the
models are quite loose and even hang In
little ripples, the flare In this case sprnging
directly from the underarm.
The Identical coat was introduced last au-
trrnn Many women looked it over eau
tiously, even suspiciously. It's established
vogue was indeed a very questionable mat
ter to their minds others were brave enough
to adopt it.
To-day every shop window and modiste's
fitting room attestst to it's widespread popu-
larity.
Besides this box-like coat there is a bewil-
and Elton shaped jackets fancifully designed
to wear with the ultra modish princess and
Directoire gowns, These are usually of
contrasting color and sometimes of material
foreign from the gown itself They are
mostly snug fitting in accordance with the
princess and Directoire lines.
TAILORED LINES
The best model worn during the SHinter
was made of plain cloth or velvet trimmed
with narrow wool braid or wider silk bralds,
the vest and cuffs frequently being of a
lighter color with touches of gold braid and
occasionally gilt cords and tassels were add
ed 1t was well padded, especially over the
shoulders, and though it did not fit into the
lines Of the figure, it was so ceverIy cut and
fitted as to give the wearer a distinguished
military bearing.
Precisely the same model reigns to-day in
light spring cloths and summer linens
AS may be assumed, this style of garment
depends largely upon its trig, tailored finish
to impart the correct air of distinction and
character. Therefore, women who make
their own clothes must not take too much
for granted regarding their ability to sue
cesSfully cut and fit this charming little
wrap.
These jackets are full of 'sneaky" curves

THREE OAKS. Mich. Aug. - The
cause Of an epidemic of typhoid fever
among the thousand inhabitants of this
place was discovered when member
Of the board OF health climbed 10 the
top Of the waterworks standpipe and
found the dead bodies of several thou
sand young sparrows in various stages
Of decomposition covering the surface
of the water. Immediately the mayor
gave instructions TO empty the stand
pipe, scrub and paint it. Hundreds OF
sparrow nests have been built ON a
ledge that runs around the summit Of
the standplpe, and the young birds are
supposed TO have fallen into the un.
covered standplpe while trying TO fly.
The cover made for the standppe
when IL was constructed was never
put on. There are now twenty-onc
cases Of typhoid in the town.
