Best Time to Water Horses.

JUST A LITTLE ADVICE
TO THE JUNE BRIDE
Pay More Attention to Cooking Les
sons and Less to Trousseau.

What secret relation there is be-
tween matrimony and needle work t.
one OF the seven wonders of the world.
AS soon as the engagement ring is safe
ly on. the girl flies 10 a sewing ma
chine or embroidery frame. and there
she stays up TO the last moment. says
Helen Corinne Hambidge in The De-
lineator.
There is no prettier sight than a
woman engaged on a dainty bit OF
needle work for her trousseau-artls,s
have made it a study for painting from
time immemorial-bu in the name OF
all that is reasonable. where is the
necessity for providing dozens and
dozens of undergarments. dresses
enough 10 last years, and hats ditto?
| know young bride whose boast is
that she tied seven hundred baby-rIb-
bon bows for her lingerie and worked
one thousand eyelets in the same Be
fore marriage she was perfectly capa-
bic of existing without all this pro-
digious stock of undergarments and
was content 10 be simply well sup
piled. She was not going TO the far
north or darkest Africa. where white
goods are practically unobtainable. but
intended TO stay in her home city.
where she could buy what she wanted
right along and get things at bargain
sales occasionally.
Instead of the girls effort to pro-
vide so much in the way of clothing
for her marriage being commendable.
ii Is actually the reversal vanity of
vanities. A sufficient supply for
years wear is all that should ever be
made for the lingerie part OF the trous-
seau; and as TO hats and gowns. only
enough for the season in which one
is being married. There is something
distinctly vulgar in this mad rush for
clothes during the engagement period. !
II IS not the finest way by any means.
TO fit ones self for the new duties OF
life. Half Of the sewing hours de- /
voted TO cooking lessons and the study /
of domestic economy would prove a /
far better investment

A Smart Summer Skirt.

A skirt that will appeal to every
woman who likes smart effects is cut
in six cores. the front gore being
stitched in panel effect. with tuck
seams. while the back gore Is arranged
IN a double box plat. At the hips Il
adjusts itself TO the figure in the popu-
lar sheath effect. but from the knees
down II widens gradually TO the hem.
where II measures three and three
quarter yards in the medium size. An
inverted plat al each side. the edges
OF which are stitched TO position about
two-thirds of the entire length of the
skirt. contributes TO the graceful effect
at the bottom, giving a slight fare
which will prove becoming to every
one. The skirt may be closed either
at the side front or the side back.
while II may be finished in either
round or shorter length.
Many attractive materials suggest
themselves for the development of this
stylish skirt model. Practically all of
the firm wash fabrics are suitable for
the purpose. while pongee. shantung.

fine novelty woolens are also appro-
