This is where the children play
when they are not otherwise en-
gagged"
1t was Mrs. Weber. the matron of
ST. Luke's Orphan Asylum, who
spoke. Her companion was fair
haired little girl. graceful and daint-
lily attired and bearing the unmis-
taxable impress of the influence of
wealth and refinement.
As Mrs. Weber addressed the child,
she opened the door of a great apart
ment, whence had issued but q mo-

chatter and the large room was once
more in a state of wild uproar.
For several minutes the woman

own age-perhaps a little older

Doris held out her dainty white
hand timidly and Marine bashfully
extended hers and after a feeble

Fashion FanCies

Some fine lines of wrappers are on
display, but these are mostly of the
less expensive kinds and consist large
~ of garments made of German fan
mel, hannelette and similar materials.
Lines of kimonos which are on sale
are constructed of plain and fancy
silks and crepes. These are similar in
design and style to the garments which
have proved so popular in past seasons.
The latest style idea with regard to
Summer negligees, and one which will
doubtless be further promul gated in the
Fall lines, is the Introduction of the
full drapped sleeve. Other models are
made in the popular jumper style,
which has proved SO successful in silk
dresses. These are on the order of the
Princess Empire frocks and are of q
more trim character than the custo-
mary negligee.

Some stores are making effective dis
plays of the real Japanese garment,
which is deliberately embroidered in
bold designs. These are of soft silk
and crepe and have the correct kino-

of the same material, generally with
embroidered ends. A great deal Of the

These may be found at retail for $1.75.
They are very practical both as to
