Worh's StyLeS

One of the late achievements of Worth
is TO have elaborately covered a black
satin zouave jacket with tiny black
saur. buttons. each one showing in its
center a silver spangle. This jacket
will be worn with a skirt OF gray
chiffon cloth. The cost Of such little
buttons, which can be ordered in any
colOrs, Is from & 20 y cents a dozen.
Among other small buttons that are
noteworthy is q set of six recently made
in Paris, and for which an American
gtrl paid over so. Each one was. in
truth. painting on porcelain OF a fam
Gus French beauty. No shank or GET
ting OF these bits OF porcelain was visi-
BILE. The paintings on them. however
had been regularly fired, so they might
be used as cabinet pieces when no lon
ger desired on a gown At present they
are placed on quaint little lapels Of
cream-cOlored satin crossing below the
bust Of an evening bodice.
IL IS. however, the very large buttons
that are most generally in favor for
new frocks- Those Of smoked pearl.
eXQuisitaly carved, are novel amonz

In pairs, one being carved so as to face
the other. An old rustic peasant may
be represented on one, while from the
other his wife looks at him through
an open doorway. Most charming also
are those on which birds. with their
nests and their young are carved The
cost of these buttons is about s. a pair.
They cGn. however, be used repeatedly.

The Rage For Khaki

Khad has taken an entirely new hold
upon the woman of fashion, hold that
is as strong as was that of the golden
browns at the Beginning Of the season.
In fact. there is a sort of frenzy for
khaki. despite the fact that IT is not
always pretty. Sometimes raw, some
times brazen, and again indistinct or
tone. IL takes expert handling to be
made into the creations that one raves
over in the French salons. The shade.
however, is peculiarly becoming to red
dish blondes, of whom there are so
many among the smart set of Paris and
London. One Of the smartest specimens
of khaki silk is shown by Worth. the
skirt being plain, save for an inch-wide
band of It's own material piped with
delicate green silk and running around
the skirt above the hem With ii is
worn a pretty short coat with full
sleeves. held with cuffs to match, these
turning back quite deep over the sleeves.
Kimono coats of khaki silk stitched
with fancy embroideries are very smart
indeed for summer wear. and some OF
the long models ere taken as an excuse
for the employment of quantities after
quantities Of handsome lace in white
and neutral tints. Shorter models have
long since assumed style Of their own,
many of which are truly delightful. IN
one OF LaferTiere's designs the coat is
draped over the shoulders in bertha
effect from a semi-fitting back. and out
lined with silk ball fringe.
There is a community Of interest be-
tween the khaki fabrics and japanese
lines In fashions, vet no one can explain
just why Probably a Is because both
are so odd and Oriental In effect
.PaUisiennes are very fond Of both, now
ever, and employ them in the choice
morsels Of the midsummer wardrobe.
Something very exquisite might be In

but is not a slaviSh adaptation. The

ami silver thread. TIE full skirt has

finished above and Below with the fine
braid AMI silver embroidery. With this
toilette IS worn large, light brown
straw ha1. with Cream-cOlOred plumes
and pinkish bluebClls GrOopinS sheaf-
like over the side.
In spite CT tho fatterinE attention paid
ito khaki and everything suggestive OF
THROWN, one cannot pass by unnoticcd
the exquisite shades OF green, the newest
of which IS gOOseberry-a dainty whit
ish green, as cool and refreshing as the
proverbial cucumber. A number Of de-
tfiChtful evening frocks are made of
IEooseberry net, the skirts trimmed with
trails Of leaves. roses ard buds worked
an various shades Of green and touched
with silver.

Summer BAKING

Delaware recipe for angel calze-Down
in Delaware. where they pride them
selves on being good housekeepers and
cooks, they make their angel cake like
everybody else except one little point
about the seasoning. which is this:
Whether vanilla or lemon be used for
flavoring u very little nutmeg is added,
for it IS considered that 1t improves
either one. If you do not wish to use
grated nutmeg in light cakes an infu-

Small cakes Of various kinds-If little
fancy cakes are desired it is well TO
make gooo light loaf cake and cut II
Ii cubes and linish these little cakes
with different icings-white, chocolate,
green, and rose coior in soft tints-
with a nut or cherry or bit of citron in
each.
Another thing to do is to make a del
icate sponge cake mixture and bake II
in small drop cakes, evening the edges
with a round cutter when baked.
Spread them with apricot marmalade
or something similar and put two TO-
gether.
How to make bouchees-Now prepare

until Il IL warra. DIP the little double

warm oven. Leave the door open rather
than allow il to become too hot.
To make the sponge cake part, use
six eggs. Break them separately. To
the yOlks add two tablespOonfuls OF
orange-flOwer water and one-half
pound OF fine sugar. Beat with a spoon
for five minutes. Whip the whites until

Lace and Ribbon Sleeves

There is a pretty sleeve. suggested by

While Summer Gowns

All sorts OF colored trimmings are
being given TO white summer dresses;
and fancy which, It must be admit

economy, exists for the Jumper linen
dress. which makes possible the wear

same color as the jumper costume are
popular. the batiste being soft. and
therefore unlikely TO give the jumper

Tinted EmbrOldCru

Probably the simples kind Of embroid-
cry is the tinted muslins which may
now be bought ready stamped in all
sorts of conventional or floral designs.
The latter are the most favored. and
OF the flowers seen the rose is best
liked, though violets and pansy effects
are equally beautiful. These tinted mo-
tifs are simply outlined in a fairly
heavy mercerized cotton, a tone OF two
deeper than the flowers. The stems are
also outlined. and the csnters OF the
full-blown flowers are frequently worked
IN French knots.
These tinted effects are very dainty
for DIOusrs. and. strange to say, launder
very well, the delicate coloring rarely
fading percepttbly.

Gaze of Rings.

Rings set with precious stones should
always be inspected from time to time
to ascertain If the gems are at all loose,
especially in the case Of claw settings.
1t is also a good plan to wash them peri
odically in warm soapsuds, to which a
few drops of sal volatile have been
added, an exception being made, how
ever, in the case OF turquoises, which
should not be dampened. In every case
the claw settings should be cleaned by
means Of a wisp of blotting paper rolled
into the form Of a shading stump" and
worked into the interstices so as to
clear them OF any accumulation Of dirt.

Threaded Ribbon

Bed linen. lingerie. table linen. and
even bric-a-brac seem 10 have been
drawn into the fad for threaded ribbon.
All these articles. as well as the Ordi-
nary wearing apparel, hats included, are
run through with ribbons Of various
widths Hence beading. dOuble-hem-
stitching. and eyelet embroidery are
having tremendous vogue as the means
whereby the ribbon effect may be added.
In the case OF crystal and the like
the ribbons are Of exactly the shade OF
the glass, run through or around the
brim and tied with a bow at one side.

HcnnStitChinQ

Hemstitching plays an important part
on summer frocl<s and IS used indeed on
all garments with equal success. This
gives opportunity for plenty of handi-
work, as the beauty Of workmanship
is distinct item in its favor. For the
past year every article on fashion has
Epoken Of the increasing beauty of hand
ombroideries, and one would supnose
that by this time perfection had been
reached in this line, and vet each

Millinery MHoUafioH

The latest innovation where millinery
is concerned IS that OF black hops.
which are substituted for briIIiantly-col-
ored flowers, and a curious effect Is
gained in the case OF white hats wreath
ed with these hops. which give a mourn
ing effect more potent even than black
ribbon or black flowers In some cases
the hops are introduced on FURNISHED
mordore straws. and interspersed with
quantities OF green foliage and loops OF
black taffeta ribbon.
