One Of the most fascinating lingerie

In the illustration one sees q very
charming design for the use of this
material. The crown, which is quite
high, has a full top, and the sides are
covered by two plated ruffies of the
point desprit or embroidered net,
which is put on double. These ruf.
hes stand up about the crown and com.
pletely hide the top. The brim is also
made Of rufles of the 'diaphanous ma
terial. The under rufne, which begins
at the crown of the hat, is very wide
and extends for some distance beyond
the other rufles. These are two shall
lower ruf1es, laid one above the other.

Cordays. Many girls follow the plan
which was found practical with the
lingerie hats in former seasons of hay
ing different adjustable trimming to
match the different gowns with which
such hat would be suitable. Very
soft Louisine ribbon is most attrac-
tive for trimming these hats, and an
arrangement of loops can be made
which will be easily adjustable by the
use Of very few stitches or even
pins. When hat is to be worn with
number Of gowns OF different colors
and to have different trimming 1t will
be found that one>of net or lace which
is slightly of the white will be more
satisfactory. A@pure white hat de-
liciously pretty, with a costume Of the
same shade or with light costumes in
which there is great deal Of white, is
often at fault II even the shade of
white in the costume varies from its
own, and with other colors than white,
unless white be mingled freely with
them, an all white hat is apt to look
either too startling or too insipid.
Light ecru, delicate coffee tints and
cream add usually a much richer note
to the costume, as we'll as being more
harmonious with variety of colors.
The fine net hats of this sort when
trimmed with handsome ribbon and
flowers are considered dressy enough
for any summer function. Large hats
are usually more becoming than small
ones, especially to young girls. but
large and small hats are equally
fashionable:

National Dish Of Brazil

AFTER existing in South American
countries for the last eight months
it's good to get back to town where
one can get something to eat" said
Mr.. r. G. Breeden, San Francisco
mining engineer.
Most of the time I've been in the
south was spent in Brazil. In that
country the national dish is jerked
beef and black beans, and one sees
nothing else. Nowhere in South
America, except in Buenos Ayres, can
q stranger from the United States
get meal that will tickle his palate
The South Americans surely don't
know the rudiments Of cooking. Ey-
cry dish they bring you is something
In grease and garlic and so dosed
with pepper as to nearly strangle
you"

Sorrows Of the Critic.

The sorrows of the modern critic
are heavy; he must not only defer to
the tastes Of the many-headed mob,
But he must talk to them in their own
jargon, lest they should misunderstood
him. One would almost accept the
privations of Grub street to have in
return a small educated audience. to
whom one could talk as one talks
with ones own familiar friend, an
audience capable OF understanding
simple propositions.

Wearing Five euttons.

Girls have gone in for many Chi

ing Of five buttons on the coat or
Jacket is a new idea, unknown to the

The Chinese wear these FIVE buttons
to remind them Of the five moral vir.

fucius. These are: Humanity, just.

HIGHWAYS.
ASK AN APPROPRIATION
WANT GOVERNOR ShAFROTH TO
PROPOSE HALF MILLION
DOLLAR FUND.

Denver.-With new administration
to take up with fresher spirit the good
roads movement that has measured
the ability of the old administration
for year past, the Denver Motor
Club, at its annual meeting Monday
night. organized and launched a new
and greater campaign than ever before
in the cause of state highway improve
ment Officers of the club who have
been devoting their best thought and
energy to the cause for year. stepped
down into the ranks with vote
of thanks from the members, and new
officers took the helm. President
Ralph w. Smith and Secretary Gordon
l.. Wands gave place respectively to
William d. Nash and E. C. Healy, who
We're elected unanimously And the
new campaign was on. That campaign
includes:
An effort to induce Governor Shat
roth to include proposition for half
million dollar appropriation for good
roads in his call for an extra session
of the legislature.
Elaborate plans for the Good Roads
Convention to meet in Denver in the
near future.
Plans for number of automobile
contests to be held at intervals during
the coming year
Plans to hold the biggest automobile
show ever held west of Chicago.
The raising of funds to pay salaries
of guards and to provide provisions for
convict labor on the roads between
Denver and Colorado Springs-so as
to make use of the $4,000 appropria-
tion made by the last session of the
legislature for that purpose.
Practically every cent of the money
raised by the club through its shows
and contests goes to the cause of good
roads.
The biggest thing decided upon by
the meeting was the sending of a COM
mittee to wait upon Governor Shat
roth. All organizations that have an
interest whatever, direct or indirect, in
the good roads movement, will be
asked to send committees also to wait
upon the governor at the same time.
1t is hoped that the great joint COM
mittee for that purpose will include
representatives of all the county COM
missions in the state, state and city
officers, the Denver Chamber of Com
merce, the various real estate ex-
changes. the Colorado State CONNER
cial Association. the Traffic Club, the
Rocky Mountain Highway Association,
the Hotel Mems Association and the

well as many other organizations in
