GIRLS SHOULD CAREFULLY
CHOOSE ACOUAINTANCES

Make haste slowly should be the
adage for girl to bear in mind when
meeting acquaintances in a strange place
in the summer. For it is far better not
to acknowledge advances than to rush
into associations that may prove unde-
srable and difficult to break.
To begin with. a man is not always the
kind to know simply because. for exam
Pile he is good looking, or owns boat
Either fact is in his favor but the real
point is whether he is a gentleman in the
true sense of being we'll bred. we'll man
nered, cons;derate and reliable. Neither
is a girl whose frocks are many and most
chic always worth knowing; she, too
must have the same essentials that are
to be required In a man-eood manners
good breeding and good principles.
1t is not always possible TO discover
these fundamental elements in a day. nor
always in a week. but by the end of the
latter period characteristics are apt to
have shown that an opinion may ue
formed as to whether one wishes to pro-
ceed or TO discontinue an acquaintance
wise girl is chary of Joining parties
after being in a strange place for only a
few days for she may put herself under
obligations which later are difficult. If not
IMPOSSIBLE to pay 1t is tiresome, some
times, know to sit by and watch others

rather than to be among those who are
undesirable
Precisely what the test is to apply to
new acquaintances would be impossible
10 state, yet instinctively a we'll bred per-
son has a way of measuring those with
whom she comes in contact 1t is doubt
less by their manners their way Of speak
ing. fashion of dressing and general de-
pertinent All these are the outward and
visible signs Of inner refinement or vul-
garity, and they are pretty safe externals
by which TO judge. A girl who uses slang
constantly and is hail fellow well met
with every one is not necessarily unde-
sira BILE. but she has trace of vulgarty
that none should care to initiate indeed
should avoid.
man who is familiar in his manner
with girls whom he knows but slightly is
not the best type of gentleman any more
than another is model of all the virtues
simply because his manners are beyond
criticism 1t is an odd and helpful fact
that even good manners do not entirely
conceal the character of a person. and
meanness or other fundamental traits will
crop out eventually.
1t is that these may have time to de-
clare themselves. either for or against
the person, that waiting becomes wise.
For one or two impromptu good times
SO lost many more will come to compen-
safe. Also girl is spared the mortifi-
cation of becoming identified with the
wrong set. which in greater or less de-
gree seems to exist everywhere. and by
the end of the summer is likely to have
made friends that she will be glad TO have
during the winter.

RAINS ROT POTATOES.
Heavy Downpour in Virginia Ruins
the Staple Crop.

RICHMOND, Va, June ol-Reports
from Northampton county are to the
effect that the potato crop. which is the
staple industry, has been entirely DESTROY
ed by the recent heavy rains which food
ed the lowlands. The bulbs have rotted
to pieces In the ground.
There were not enough sound potatoes
left in the country to pay for the trouble
of preparing them for the market A SIM
liar unfortunate condition exists in other
counties in this section, but the loss will
proba bly, be the greatest in Northa mpton
1t is said that the loss will approximate te
at least half a million dollars.
There has been tremendous rainfall
throughout Virginia within the last sew
eral weeks. The rivers have been flooded
and the low grounds inundated in many
sections. In several instances entire
towns have been flooded. bridges washed
away and traffic brought to a standstin.
In the low-lying counties. where the po-

Fads for Women.

Many women have noticed how fashion
is reversing the general order of millin-
cry this season Heretofore the rule has
been a straw in a quiet or neutral shade
with trimmings almost startling in
brightness. Now the hats on brill
liant tones. for there are vivid old rose
or brilliant green straws. with subdued
ornamentation. such as soft scarf Of
misty gray tulle twisted around the
crown of a deep rose colored hat or
black velvet added to give character
The latest craze is parasols and hats
that match. Not an economical fad,
but the girl who has 'knack of doing
things" may make them at home for
small expense. Having scanty purse,
she may use the fluffy furbelowed para
sol, but white linen sunshade and
lingerie hat will be practical Plain linen
parasols must show hand-painted gar
lands of flowers third of the distance
from the edge and the hat must be
wreathed in artificial flowers to match
Roses. lilacs, pansies. orchids. bluets and
geraniums are all appropriate.
Stylish riding boots for women come in
white buckskin.
Amethyst, violet lilac and heliotrope
shades are fashiona BILE.
The new coat collars are large, round
affairs Of Irish or cluny lace.

Paving a Double Pric,
for Sugar

Condensed milk may be also evaporated.
But each can contains about as much sugar
as milk.
Let us figure out what this means.
The large can of Van Camps contains six
teen ounces Of evaporated milk. That means
a full pint-a full pound.
If you buy Van Camps by the case, and
replace the water which we take out. you get
rich milk at about six cents per quart.
The 10-cent cans of condensed milk contain
only IL ounces-four ounces less than Van
Camps. And about half the condensed milk
is sugar, for which you are paying more than
twice what sugar is worth.
Evening star., 1909-06-21

And Van Camps gives you for cooking
the whole rich milk-the finest milk in Amer.
lea
Please note what this means.
When you use raw milk for cooking you
don't get the whole milk, because milkman's
milk separates The butter fat rises and the
solids fall.
In Van Camps you get all the butter fat,
all the solids that exist in the richest milk
Thus it gives to milk dishes richness and
favor which you never can get from raw
milk.
You lose all this in condensed milk

Remaking Old Sleeves
So They Will Be Stylish

AS has been said before many times.
it is the sleeve that proclaims the age of
garment Fortunately. the present
styles lend themselves we'll to almost any
kind of alteration. and as sleeves are
smaller this spring than those worn
year ago. the difficulty of remodeling is
greatly lessened.
True the up-to-date sleeve is long,
while the 1908 ones were short: still. it
does not follow that the new ones must
be cut from one piece. because the sleeve
is a decorative part of the modern gown.
and this allows all kinds of contrivances
to be used in order to conceal joins or
other defects
For instance seams may be hidden un
der a tuck or a band OF trimming in the
case of smoothly fitting sleeve. while
the mousquetaife models are even more
easily repaired, for once the shlrrlns IS
in the result is pretty even, though the
material were veritable bit OF patch-
work.
In remodeling the sleeves Of last year S
shirt waists a number of them Will need
no alteration. except the addition of a
deep cuff, for although quite small sleeves
are the rule dreSsy gowns or waists
the conventional blouse sleeve is in better
taste when fitted TO this particular style
of garment.
Cuffs Make Sleeves Up to Date.
The kind of cuffs added will. of course
depend upon the kind of fabric used for
the waist. If lace or embroidery cannot
be matched then fine tucking will answer,
while in the case of colored blouse in
plain tone ii can be matched in stripe
then cuffs. collar and box peat should be
added of the striped goods,
Figured or striped shirt waists may be
remodeed in the same way, using pure
white instead Of the color, unless the lat
ter can be perfectly matched in plain
goods and is preferred to white.
The sleeves of the more pretentious
afternoon blouses of last year will prob
ably provide enough extra material, but
TO make repairing a perfect success II will
he necessary to entirely rip apart. after
removing the sleeves from the body Of the
garment
This done. press the goods and with
paper pattern cut the sleeve according to
the cloth.
If not sufhciently long then the ma
terial could be slashed. drawn apart and
contrasting fabric inserted. For this
net bands. tucked, braided or embroid
cred are generally used. Plain rows of
braid are. OF course. better If the goods
is heavy, yet being employed for silk or
with fabrics of similar weight.
When none but stripes are available for
alteration it is good plan to tuck them
finely Crosswise. lay them on the paper
pattern and then connect with fiat braid
or a silk strapping. or. If the waist is

smart by using net TO match the silk in

Van Camps is Pure Milk

Van Camps is simply rich Holstein milk,
with two-thirds the water evaporated.
There is no sugar in it, no starch, no pre-
servative nothing whatever but milk
We have evaporating plants in six states,
all located close to our dairics
The fresh milk from the cows is poured
into receptacles. Then the air is pumped out,
leaving the milk in a vacuum.
Because of that vacuum, very moderate
heat sets the milk boiling and evaporates the
water in steam
Thus we evaporate two-thirds of the water
to reduce the bulk. 1t is that economy in
shipping which makes Van Camps cost even
less than raw milk.
Evening star., 1909-06-21
Use Only One Milk

you use Van Camps. 1t gives you pure milk
for your table ard rich milk for your cook
ing.
1t is cheaper than raw milk, because you
save the cost of daily delivery.
1t is economical because there i. no waste.
1t is convenient for you have it always on
hand
If you prove these facts, you who use con-
densed milk will gladly change to Van Camps

Condensed Milk is Nearly
Half Sugar

A can of condensed milk is about half milk
and half sugar.
The sugar is added-from 40 to 50 per cent
both to cheaper and preserve it.
In the old DAYS, before the sterilization of
milk was perfected sugar was added to keep
the milk sweet
And many people still cling to this sweet
ened milk because they don't know how evap-
Grated milk has DISPLACED it.

2S Per Cent Solids

This evaporated milk is IS per cent solids
8per cent butter fat.
Such is the milk that we put into the cans,
and the milk that you get in Van Camps.
Then the milk is sterlized after the can
is sealed. That's the only thing we do to
preserve it.
When you open the can, and replace the
water, you have whole rich milk without any
subtraction or any addition, save a slight al
mond flavor due to sterilization
