The New Shoe

There is quite radical change, too.
in the smart shoe, for, now that very
long skirts and many frilly fiounces
have disappeared about her feet, the
long Prov of the straight French Slip
per and shoe has no meaning or use.
The short vamp. the low buckle and
the high heel are worn for daytime. its
upper often of the same color as the
stocking. While for evening the satin
slipper has satin ribbons about the
ankles, and, in theS case of "a few
women with excessively pretty feet,
they are heelless. The sole is so soft
and flexible that after one wearing 1t
takes at once all the curves of heel
and iRstep in the pFettiest way in the
world. Fancy these in satin to match
the frcck, the ribbons tying over "a
fesh-colored stocking Vogue.

Finishing Lingerie Seams.

A very clever idea for finishing the
rough seams Of lingerie is to button
hole them, instead of making the or
binary clumsy French seams. The
stitches may be placed not too close
together, so that it takes very little
more time, and it is a far more serv-
iceable way of finishing off the wrong
side of seams. This idea may be car
ried out in making up lingerie hats.
for, where there is a seam, it must be
arranged SO that no rough edges pro-
trude. The idea may also be used on
a sheer muslin dress

BORDERS ON THE PARAsoLs.
Pretty Idea That Has the Sanction OF
Dame Fashion.

Bordered parasols are the latest
edict of fashion which her devotees
are bound to carry ont, for the fashion
Is pretty one The bordered pom
gees are charmingly attractive. They
are usually made with the border well
upsfrom the edge. and it is very much
the style to have two kinds of pongee.
or pongee and rajah. or pongee and
linen, enter into the composition Of
the parasol instead of one material.
The center of the parasol will be
made of a rather heavy pongee or
rajah, for instance, and then the Dor
der of vivid colors set between this
center and an outer band of light
weight and hght-colored material.
The borders are some of them WOW
en- into the parasols,. which then are
all OF one material, but in many in
stances this is not so, the borders be-
ing merely set in. All the chintz and
cretonne patterns which have now be-
come so fashionable for trimming lin
en- and lawn frocks are reproduced in
the pongees and rajahs for use on
these parasols.

to the way in which it is cut 1t is
sleeves of different material from the
blouse, when the epithet sleeveless"
will be more correctly applied, or it is
possible TO have the sleeves of the
same material, the effect being pro-
duced merely by the way they are set
in. 1t is quite charming, however, to
have the sleeves of fine, soft batiste
or thin handkerchief linen, especially
in a linen blouse.
This style of blouse may be used
with a skirt to match for an entire
costume, or as a separate bodice for
wear with liner or pongee coat suits.
The model shown in the picture is
of heavy linen. TO be worn with coat
and skirt Of the same. The linen Sc
lected is of a light buff color-not the
natural linen, but a more delicate
tone. The sleeves are made of batiste
in the same tone. Both blouse and
sleeves are trimmed with brown
soutache braid arranged in bands.
Buttons covered with the linen are
used as further ornamentation. The
chemisette is in two parasitic upper
part or yoke being Of the buff batiste,
embroidered in fine braid and having
a tie and ends of brown liberty satin.
The lower part of the chemisette is of
heavy linen, embroidered with the
braid in the same fashion as the rest
of the blouse.

many long seams. The necessary
seams are managed in perfectly sim
pie way They are stitched upon the
wrong side, creased. turned and
stitched on the right side, forming a
tiny welt not an eighth of an inch in
width. The bottom of cover for chair

chair rather than of a slip, which
however, it really is, being made tc
protect the more costly covering and
to give cooler feel to the furniture

SAVED FROM MATERNAL WRATH.
soys' FerVent Prayer Was Answered
in the Nick of Time.

A suburbanite is fond of telling this
story of his five-year-old son Bobby.
Being of an inquiring turn of mind
the youngster one day managed to
turn on both faucets in the bathtub
to see what would happen. 1t CHANGED
that the stopper was in place, and the
tub rapidly filed up, to the great de-
light of Bobby. Finally, however, the
tub became 50 full that it threatened
to overflow on to the floor, and Bobby,
having proper respect for the mater
nal slipper, became frightened and
tried vainly to turn off the water. Be-
ing unable to, for some reason, he
gazed tearfully at the ever-rising flood,
and then, mindful both of his religious
training and the occasional visits of
the plumber, he plunged down on his
knees, and his elder sister, who hap
pened to be passing at the moment,
heard him exclaim, fervently:
20, Lord, please stop this water
running! And, o, Lord, If you can't
do it, please send somebody that CAM
His prayer was answered, for his
sister rose to the occasion and turned
off the water and temporarily saved
Bobby from the much-feared slipper

BEST WAY TO EAT CORN.
"Scorer" That Sits the Kernels Is
Now Very Generally Used.

1t is a clumsy and tedious process
30 score corn with a knife, and the
corn never tastes half as good when
scraped off as when eaten from the
cob. but there is a new kind of corn
scorer that merely Sits the kernels,
leaving them on the cob, so that none
of the flavor is lost. Moreover, it
makes easier eating, leaving fewer
hulls between the teeth, and, of course,
the corn is more easily digested since
the hulls are mostly left on the cob.
This new kind of scorer is not used
in the kitchen, but at the table 1t
is an attractive little tool that is
handed about and never fails to at
tract pleasant surprise. 1t works very
quickly, raking four rows at once, so
that three strokes will score an ear
1t is a neat little nickel plated object
costing a quarter and it may be had
ut department stores.

ITCHING HUMoR ON BOY
His Hands Were Solid Mass, and
Disease Spread All Over Body
Cured in 4 Days BY Cuticura.

zone day We noticed that our little
boy was all broken out with itching
sores. We first noticed it on his little
hands. His hands were not as bad
then, and we didn't think anything
serious would result. But the next day
we heard of the Cuticura Remedies
being so good for itching sores. By
this time the disease had spread all
over his body, and his hands were
nothing but solid mass of this itch
ing disease. I purchased box of Cuti-
cura Soap and one box Of Cuticura
Ointment, and that night I took the
Cuticura Soap and lukewarm water
and washed him we'll Then I dried
him and took the Cuticura Ointment
and anointed him with it. I did this
every evening and in four nights he
was entirely cured. Mrs. Frank DON

dampness had ruined my once robust
health. I had catarrhal affections OF
the bronchial tubes, and for time there
was doubt as to my recovery.
"MJ good honest old doctor advised
me to take Peruna, which did and in
short time my health began to i'm

WAS ONLY RED BLOOD.
And Three-Year-Old Had Been Told
That it Was Blue.

Three-year-old Allan had very aris-
tocratic grandma, who prided herself
on her own and her husbands blue
FLOODED ancestry. She told him heroic
deeds of them and warned him from
ever playing with boys of low degree.
One day Allan came screaming up
stairs to his mamma and grandma,
holding his hand up covered with
blood, where he had cut his little
finger. They were both greatly
alarmed, as he was child who rarely
cried or complained when hurt Nam
ma washed the blood off and, exam
lining the cut, said:
Why, dear, it's not so very bad.
Does it hurt you so much?"
I'm not cryin' cause it hurts" he
said, but cause it's only red blood,
and grandma said had blue. "-Phila-

4 New Hat,

A new shape for the summer hat is
known as the violet" for it is copied
from the leaves of that modest little
flower. The straw is formed like a
heart-shaped plateau, but at the wide
end the two semi-circles are curled I'M
der and the angle of the heart falls
directly in the back. The bonnet, when
finished, has point at the top of the
head, while the straw curves up and
then down in a point in the middle of
the front, leaving room for the rather
wide pompadour at each side of the
head. The trimming can consist of
only wreath of plumes or flowers,
ending in tiny lunches at each side of
the front. while little ruching under
the brim adds much to the effect.
