DEATH WINS OCEAN RACE.
Daughter of Spanish Consul Dies
With Wish Unfulfilled.

NEW YORK. June .15.-After losing in
a race with death. Mrs. Berthold Singer.
wife Of the Spanish consul to Chicago.
arrived here Saturday with the dead
body of her dfteen-year-old daughter
Ada. The young girl died a victim Of
phthisis at sea Tuesday last. while she
was being hurried to this country. that
she might see her father before she sue
cumbed.
Berthold Singer. the father of the GIRL
went down the bay on the revenue cut
ter Hudson to meet the steamship. He
had been notified of his daughters death
by a wireless message from Mrs Singer.
When he boarded the steamship he found
his wife Frustrated in her cabin.
In February last Mr.. Singer, accom-
panied by his wife and son Alfred. went
to Europe with the little girl who was
suffering from phthisis. Owing to bust
ness Mr.. Singer was compelled to return
to this country. and he left the girl in
care Of her mother.
When she finally learned that she was
going to die Ada expressed a desire to
see her father once more. So that the
little girl might have her last wish full
filled the mother started for America. At
the request Of Mrs. Singer. the captain Of
the steamship did everything in his power
to make fast time. The child's condi-
ton was such. though. that she could not
hold out. and Tuesday night she died.
Her body will be taken to Chicago for
burial.

PETTICOATS
CHEAP AND WEAR WELL
Fit, Material and Trimming Can Be All Far More
Satisfactory Than If Garment Is Ready Made.

Attractive though the petticoat section
of a store may be. one never passes
through 1t without thinking how much
more comfortable women would feel and
what a saving of money there would be
if they could only find time to make their
own underskirts at home.
When 1t is taken into consideration that
the average petticoat will surely require
alterations of some kind. either it is too
long or it does not fit over the hips. or
the draw strings make 1t so bulky at the
waist line that the fullness must be put
into a belt. it would seem that a few
hours more employed in sewing would
an entire petticoat. with the re-
suit that the fit material and trimming
would be undoubtedly of better quality
and in many-cases obtained at less cost
than the ready-to-wear skirt.
Then, too. the work is simple enough If
who will attempt making waist. much
more difficult article, hesitate when II
comes to an underskirt.
Five Petticoats Needed.
AS FIVE underskirts-two Of wash ma
terial, third OF fabric such as mohair
or one of the silk substitutes. and two
dainty white ones-are none too many for
the average business girl. the saving in
making these garments at home will be
readily understood.
If underskirts are attempted at home 1t
is we'll to select a f1ve-gored model. fitting
the waist tne-no band required-where It
would be faced with a haif-inch strip OF
the material cut on the bias.
This design will answer for all OF the
petticoats, as flounce comes with 1t. This
can be used as 1t is or modified to suit
the needs.
For every day, office or store wear, such
materials as striped Bingham, seersucker,
or wiry cotton wolfe are appropriate.
Six yards of material thirty inches wide
will make an ample Skirt-meaSur1ng four
and one-half yards around the lower edge
and provide material for one deep or two
or three lesser hounces.
These goods can be found at present for
ten cents yard.
For rainy days wash skirt is not de-
sirable, neither is it economical. as it will
doubtless need Tubing after one wear
ing in the wet.
Mohair gives the best service of any
material for a petticoat that one mus.
wear often. 1t is cool, does not lose its
crispness. as the silk substitutes are apt
to do and 1T sheds mud easily.
Five yards of this material Will be SUI
ficient for a petticoat. as the goods Is
wider than the cotton fabrics.
At fifty-nine cents yard can be oougnt
a quality of mohair excellent for this pur-
pose. Such materials as near SILK, sateen,
etc, will Of course cost less, but Will not
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1908-06-15

be satisfactory in the end. not being SO
serviceable as the mohair.
For white underskirts that will wear
long and we'll there is nothing better than
the English long cloth. This comes IN
prices varying from $3.50 to $50 per
dozen yards.
If liked the body of the petticoat could
be made of the long cloth and the ruffles
Of sheerer goods.
In this case four yards will be ample for
each skirt. as the fabrics measure thirty
six inches in width.
Dainty Style for Petticoat.
A suggestion of style for a dainty petit
coat would be to cut the skirt from the
long cloth and finish the bottom with
dust ruf1le of the same material This
would be overlaid by deep flounce al
most knee length made either entirely Of
embroidered demi.founcing or a wide
edging sewed to a ruff1e of the goods. the
threaded beading or bias strapping could
head the flounce.
This model would wear and launder
we'll, quite a consideration where a bust
ness girl is concerned. for she has none
too much time for repairing, and the
with ones clothing.
The second white petticoat could be
modelled like the first, but the deep ruffle.
for variety could be of fine lawn trimmed
with insertion: lace should come between
groups of tucks and the finish might be
lace ruff1e.
This petticoat could be worn under
made and finished quite Independently Of
the skirt. and only lightly attached, 1t
could be removed and washed at home
when the skirt required laundering.

into a gem. The ancients used to place
amethysts in their drinking vessels as
preventive against intoxication and the
beautiful violet rays were supposed to
be a source Of vitality to wearers OF the

Nothing whatever is added-no
sugar, no starch, no preservative.
Nothing is subtracted save water.
We milk, in five states, 10000
Holstein COWS. Every COW is
regularly inspected. So is every
man who milks them.
Every dairy is sanitary. Every
factory, where the milk is evapo-
rated, is built without wood. We
carry cleanliness to such an ex-
IRENE that there is never a chance
of infection.
Then the milk is sterilized after
the cans are sealed. The milk
keeps for years as fresh as the
day we MIXED it,;

A Cow in the Kitchen

Van Camps means a COW in
your kitchen. Rich milk or cream
all you want, when you want it.
No waiting for the milkman,
no shortage, no waste.
Yet it's even cheaper than raw
milk.
Van Camps is as thick as thick
cream. So thick that you add
one part water for coffee. Yet it
doesn't cost half what you pay
your milkman for cream.
Add two parts water and you
have rich milk. And the cost Of
such milk, when you buy Van
Camps by the case, runs about
three cents per pint.
Then you have no waste-no
milk left over. That saving alone
is enormous.

The fact is this:
Not a housewife in this city
will use raw milk after she knows
Van Camps.
You will never cook with half
milk when you once know the
flavor that Van Camps gives to
milk dishes.
You will never drink germ
laden milk when you know that
Van Camps is pure.
Is it not worth ten minutes to
know the truth about something
as vital as milk9
