Among the varied bathing suits
| brought out for the summer season },
one of old-fashioned figured silk, the kim
worn decades ago. The foundation
| color is of pink or blue or brown, with
| stripes of white and colored flowers over
| the surface. The model is the popular
semi-princess one, with narrow belt
| at sides and back, and box plat down
| front and back. There is a Dutch neck.
lingerie collar, and gathered sleeves
| half way to elbow. The gown is only
| half of the costume. The accessories
are important There is Charlotte
! Corday cap of the silk lined with rub
| Der, with long Streamers from the sides;
| a pair of shoes reaching well above the
| ankles, made with rubber soles, the top
| part of the silk wide open in front and
| laced across like sandals with ribbon to
! match. The silk stockings are OF the
color of the silk frock. The cap and the
shoes are not so novel, however, as the
sunshade and the reticule. Both OF
these are of the silk. The 'sunshade is
wide and fiat, with long bamboo
handle and the reticule is a generous
affair made like a sewing bag and car
ried over the arm by long, wide ribbons
of the silk The idea of adding these
| articles to a bathing costume is good
and acceptable. OF course, they be-
|
But even the best swimmers spend a
great deal of their time on the beach
| these days.
| Many of the new houses are being built
| with screens attached to the window
frames. which slide down into casing
out of sight in winter, and can be raised
and lowered by automatically pressing
| button.
The most sensible tennis dress CON
sists of white waist and skirt made
simply and somewhat shorter than the
regulation length walking skirt. Sepa-
rate waists and skirts are more gener-
| ally worn for tennis than a dress
| throughout as one day the bodice may
become soiled while the skirt remains
immaculate, and vice versa, and when a
hotel laundry bill must be taken into
| consideration this must be thought Of.
Gowns throughout for morning as we'll
as afternoon wear are at present con-
| sidered smarter than even the finest
! lingerie waists worn with separate linen
skirts. The best plan for the girl who
really plays regularly is to have made
several simple shirt waist dresses of
white linen, duck or madras, all alike,
| so that waists and skirts can be put
on together Interchangeable For tennis
| the turned down collars of either heavy
embroidered linen or soft batiste are the
most comfortable, but it is a mistake to
wear this style of collar if it is really
unbecoming.
| A tempting luncheon dish is made with
| fresh strawberries, crushed and pressed
through sieve until there is a cupful of
pulp. Add three we'll beaten eggs,
| heaping teaspoonful of sugar, one cup
of sifted flour to which has been added;
one teaspoonful of good baking powder.
| Stir all together and add more flour to
make a batter thick enough to drop.
Fry in hot smoking beef fat and when
nicely Drowned serve with mashed straw
| berries and cream. Use deep kettle
| to cook the fritters.
| An attractive salad can be made of
cucumbers and would be most appropri-
| ate to serve with a summer dinner. Take
| thoroughly chilled cucumbers and cut
! lengthwise into halves. Hollow out the
| centers and chop fine in a chopping
| bowl with onions and celery if it can
be procured. Sprinkle with capers and
season with pepper and salt; lastly mix
we'll with a French dressing of vinegar
and oil and put back into the cucumber
shells. Serve on lettuce leaves.
For branded cherries use the finest
morellos. Leave half of the stem to the
| cherries and prick the fruit with a new
| needle. Drop them into a jar or a wide
mouthed bottle; put into the jar three
| fourths of their weight of crushed rock
candy; fill up the jars with brandy and

Do not make the mistake of using fine
work on summer furnishings. It takes
too much time, and is not so effective
as bold, dashing, quickly worked de-
| signs. Conventional patterns are gener-
| ally chosen, often in detached figures,
| again in conventional forid borders or
| in the favorite Greek key motif. Grape
and fruit designs are always appropri-
ate, and transfer patterns can be
| bought at most stores. COUGHING, ap
| pllQue, Wallachian, or cOrding are all
| good mediums for the embroidery. Very
| dashing effects can be had with nothing
| but heavy outlining done in heavy rope
silks, or, what is cheaper and washes
better, mercerized cottons Suitable ma
| terials are crash, art linen, unbleached
muslin, fine cheesecloth, and burlaps,
| ginghams and madras.
A charming room is furnished with
| couch cover, pOrtieres bookcase curtains.
| chair seats, and table cover of natural
| cOlored Bulgarian crash that is almost
| white, worked with a conventionalized
| current design in black outline embroid-
| cry. a heavy twisted merceriZed cotton
was used that was first tested to see
| that 1t did not run IN laundering. Some
punches of currants were merely out
lined, while others were filled in with a
darning stitch. Sash curtains at the
window are made of a cheap black and
white dotted Swiss, with an inch-wide
hem down the sides and a two and
half inch hem at bottom. The hem is
| held by brier stitch in black cotton.
"Well, summer is here and l suppose
we will reap another harvest again this
year." said a hairdresser to a customer
Il day or two ago.
You see,' she said, when she saw
that the customer expected her to con-
tinue 1.-The reason we do such large
| business in summer time is because girls
and women will persist in going about in
the sun in their bare heads. until their
| tresses are burned and faded, and then
| they came to us in despair to have their
hair restnred 10 its natural color We
