THE LoUNGING ROBE.

Prom tho Chicago Record Herald
The dainty woman carries her person
ality to the sanctity OF her boudoir. and
INDUCES her fancy in some OF the attrac-
tive connections which the stores offer in
tho line Of dressing gowns
One OF the most favored OF these. the
modified k.mona. which is the old wrap
per with a Japanese touch in the sleeve
and banded edge around the neck and
downward, appears in many combina-
lions.
It Is made In plain materials with fig
ured bands in place Of the plain ones
which were used altogether at one time.
The sleeves have modified the wide fare
which dipped inconveniently INTO every
thing over which the arm passed.
They appear in the crossbar rnusllns
and dimities. which are the coolest Of all
cool materials.
The neck and front edges OF these are
5CallODed and buttOuhOled in white or a
color, and the bottoms OF the sleeves and
often the edges OF the girdle are finished
IN the same way.
The negllgee always reflects in a modI-
fed way the prevailing modes Of fashion.
II shoulders are broad, the house gown
has them broader. II skirts are scanty,
the lines here are long and slim, and II
bouffantry prevails. then there is CORE
spending breadth and fun I'm these.
The woman Of graceful figure win find
the house gowns Of the day as attractive
as they have ever been. The straight
Silhouette brings out youthful lines as
no other style could.
But for the stout women, wide, full neg
ligees are the moro becoming. However,
the pattern cutters have improved on
their models since the present styles
came into vogue. and much has been
learned as to the adaptation OF scanty
draperies 70 rotund figures.

FOR A LAWN TEA.

From TIE HouseksepeT.
For a smart lawn tea, Salads, sand

a common sandwich are limitless. and
any number OF combinations can be made
according TO the taste Of the maker
Herb sandwiches are very palatable
during hot weather; being made Of let
tuCe, pepper grass, watercress, pepper
mint and chives. These are frequently
all mixed together. with a mayonnaise
dressing added
The strongly favored herbs are finely
minced and sprinkled lightly over the
bUttered slice.
Then the other slice IS placed on top.
and the sandwich is trimmed into shape.
with no ragged green being allowed 90
show.
Chopped olives, green pickles. and curry
powder may be employed IN this way.
Gluten and graham bread go best with
the filing containing mayonnaise.
Other herbs which are good used IN
this way are parsley, sorrel. dandelion.

seams extend from the hem Of the froclx

This little frock was embroidered
around the neck and down the front IN
a panel effect with wreaths OF blue for

With this garment was worn n can

The cap was scalloped around the edge

OF INTEREST TO THE WOMEN
CARE OF BRIC-A-BRAC.
From the Boston Globe.

From the Boston Globe
There are many many little ideas and
suggestions which IL followed will pro-
long the life Of some valued piece OF fur
niture or article Of brfc-a-brac far beyond
It's natural period OF existence.
How many persons think that when
they place a good chair or table near an
open fireplace, a register, or any very
warm spot, the heat will cause the wood
and glue to dry, thus bringing about
dry rot" where the pieces are placed
together? How many women do not lean
carelessly against the back OF some pol
ished wood chair, quite obllvious Of the
fact that the sharp belt buckles they are
wearing are making great scratches that
can never be eradicated?
Then. too. there are the little sugges-
tons for the care OF ornaments. so sell
dom either known or carried out For
instance, probably very few persons, in
deed, clean glass lamp globes. window
panes, SC, properly. Especially for the
former. the best thing is TO place pull
verified pumice stone between the layers
Of a folded piece OF soft muslin. and
stitch around the edges 10 prevent the
powder from spilling. Wipe the glass
with the dry CLOTH and Il will become
clean and sparkle almost instantly
Enough powder will remain on the cloth
TO be Used many times without renewing.
Another good idea Is 20 keep a wet
sponge In the cabinet with ivory curios
or carvings. II Will provide moisture
that prevents cracking from dry heat. OF
course, the sponge must be remoistened
occasionally.
Often even valuable china is defective
In the firing. and so II would DO well 10
keep all such acids as lemon, vinegar,
&C. away from fine china. as in the
event Of its not being properly fired the
acid viii take all the paint from Il.
AS a guard against accident, when
valuable vase is filed with flowers Il
should first be partly filed with sand,
over which the water should be poured.
This will keep the vase from topping
over by adding 20 its weight.
And all these are only few OF the
useful hints that might be given, and
which every housewife should take well
10 heart.

From the Philadelphia Public Ledger.
A woman whose cotton clothes never
seem to fade was induced to tell how she
did IT.
In the first place" she said. "T am
particular that all my colored clo+bas
have the coloring set with sugar of lead
or salt before washing, but nv particular
trick Is adding little coloring matter
such as is used for candles to the r,ne5nr,
water. Just drop or TWO will make the
materials come out bright and fresh
looking"
Another woman uses a drop or two OF
cotton dyes In the rinsing water with
equally good effect.
