OF INTEREST TO THE WOMEN
ETIQUETTE OF THE
SUMMER DINNER

Fron the Boston Herald
The hostess OF moderate means who
wishes TO extend the hospitality OF her
country house during the summer should
remember that simplicity Is far more re-
freshing than an elaborate meal long
drawn out. Everything should be as
cool and fresh looking as possible with
dishes that tax neither the servants
Of the house nor the appetires Of the
guests. For decoration, wild flowers
would be entirely in keeping. even though
only grasses and buttercups, sweet clover
and wild roses were obtainable. A great
shallow brass or china bowl Of these
would make q good centerpiece.
II the table can be spread out on the
veranda, or under the trees. japanese
lanterns would solve the problem OF
lighting. Otherwise prettily shaded
lamps are the best. unless, of course.
the house is supplied with gas or cleo
trioity, for candles would iutter in the
breeze and attract the mosquitoes. II

men can get out from town IN time 70

and the palmer scrt IS Just as appro-
priate FOR the summer dinner, so long
as the glassware is delicate and cool

IN hot weather It is always better

Among the earliest examples OF what

side breadths simply lifted and draped

The ends were thrown. one over the

This might be varied by raising or low

crossed. or by drawing them 20 one side
or another.
A very pretty effect may be gained BY
slightly lifting. It can hardly be called

six TO eight bolts Of ribbon TO make them,

IDEAL MOTOR COAT.

Paris. July s.-The ideal motor coat
fastens high about the neck. affording
protection from dust and wind This Is
a point often overlooked by manufac-
tUrers who do not specialize on motor
wear. and yet who make a line Of auto
mobile coats. Many OF the coats are fin
ished with inside sleeve puffs drawn
closely about the wrists with elastic
bands, thus anording protection from
dust
POplin and pongee are two materials
that are especially favored this season
for motor coats. These appear IN many
different styles. Cravenetted prunena
and serges make up a line Of more pro-
tecttve garments. The other extreme is
found IN coats made OF Iight-weight
Shantung, unlIned and practically only
q duster. These are very desirable for
summer tours
Chiffon mohairs are being introduced
with success in motor coat lines. These
appear in the fine invisible stripes, as
we'll as IN plain colors. The dust-shed-
ding quality Of mohair IS well known
and. therefore. such coats are favorably
received
Rubberized satin coats come IN for
their share Of attention. though they
do not occupy the field so extensively as
they did a few seasons ago.
Linen crash and ramie linen coats are
much favored. The fact that these coats
are washable and economical in price
makes them strong bidders for popular
trade. Manufacturers have put out ex-
ceptionally me lines OF linen coats at
very reasonable prices. These are expect
ed to have large sale 10 natural colors.
In addition 70 the motor coats. there
are a number OF circular cape STYLES
with and without hoods, these being de-
veloped in linen, mohair, pongee, rubber
tied silk. and waterproof wooden fabrics.
Some OF these capes are OF extraordi-
narily vide cut, the newest measuring
sometimes as much as eight yards in
the sweep. These latter are the extreme
novelty Of the season and are being af-
fected by very high-Class dressers.
