In England There Is a Growing
Demand for Mixed
Bathing.

dial fashion with colored braid to match.
The French demoiselle considers her
appearance when bathing of more ac-
count than her comfort, and sometimes
stockings are worn, and elegant straw
bonnets, or the sweetest caps tied with
a huge bow in front, with a gay little
fringe (warranted not to go out OF
curb sewn inside.
1t would indeed be a daring female
to face that fashionable well-dressed
crowd in the hired English costume!
Though so much more fully clothed
than the British bather, the French
would neve dream of issuing forth and
scampering across the beach to the sea,
unless completely e%nveloped in a peig-
noir. This Is a long wrapper, made OF
bath toweling. For ladies. generally
white, in the shape of a cloak to the
heels, made with a pretty rundown
collar, and tied at the neck with colored
braid. 1t is sufficiently ample to en-
tirely hide the figure.
The mems are made with sleeves like
lose dressing gowns and the toweling
is often of the brown and red rough
Turkish kind, and has a more mascu-
line appearance than the pure white,
worn by the ladies. These garments
are cast off when the water is reached.
and are again donned when the owners
return across the beach 20 the huts.

French DemOiselle Puts Her Ap=
pearance Ahead of
Comfort.

IT HE public demand that mixed
bathing> be permitted at the
principal seaside resorts of Eng
land is gradually and surely having
weight with many a town council.
They find hat facilities for enabling
families to sport together in the lane
Ing waves must be given, or the fam
lilies in question refuse to visit the
shore that denies this pleasure. when
less prudish boroughs are available.
The question of prudery in this mat
ter is interesting to investigate. In
many crowded seaside places, ladies'
bathing machines are placed at a very
small distance from those of the OPP
posite sex. Here the British matron,
with her fair daughters, fears not to
disport herself, often in very skinny
garments of the combination type,
hired for the occasion from the bath
ing machine proprietor.
Now, as everyone knows, the regu-
lation dress required for an English
man to adopt when bathing from a
machine is of the slightest description.
All this, in the eyes of the powers
that be, is very right and proper, and
mixed bathing is considered improper.
1t certainly would be under these cir
cumstances, but no n ever suggests
or wishes them to exist.

CAPES FOR MIDSUMMER.

Cape designs are myriad n are de-
veloped in all sorts of materials from
lace and chiffon to cloth n serge.
Unlined capes of serge or cloth in
white or light color have become almost
Indispensable for informal summer
evening use and many women prefer
a handsome cape of satin or crepe to a
coat with sleeves for summer wear.
An ample cape of soft black satin,
with round yoke heavily embroidered
in dull gold and black and lined
throughout in gold color satin. is a
model that has beer many times
copied by one importer. A particularly
good evening cape is of the vivid but
beautiful shell1sh pink, which the
French call CRAZE. softened by the soft
gray metallic lace which is dubbed
aluminium. and by a little embroidery
in the aluminium, and lined with gray
chiffon matching the metallic trim
ming.

But h not only acts as servant,
does this courageous college girl. Some
times she stays In the city and does

the regular employees have a chance

while they're away, and she does
mending and makes fine lace for those
who stay at home.

but the accen on the o~ne-piece frocl1
and its coat has been so emphatic that
this quiet, unheralded reversion to an
earlier type strikes one as a bit odd.
To be quite frank. I expected TO have
very little to do with lingerie blouses
this season, but 1 find that even among
my clientele there is a great demand
for them.
The new one are very attractive, es-
pecially those of tucked and embroid-
cred marquisette-the dernier crI in

their continued popularity lies in the
iEgratiating qualities of the new suits.

DAILY HEALTH HINT.

Sympathy for the unfortunate
and charity for the incapacitated
gives a direct return to the giver,
in that it tends toward the COM
fort of the mind and the enjoy
ment of life. Yet those who feel
disposed to give aid cannot dis
charge their duties to the COM
munfty merely by giving out
money in a miscellaneous way.
Every contribution made to pro-
fessional alms-seekers does harm
to the really worthy. The De-
partment of Public Health and
Charities is making a special
study of the field and it well
comes and can advise those char
itably inclined to do effective
work Of benefit to the entire COM
munity.

Bathing in the Bring Abroad
Has Advantages and Drawbacks

The correct conditions for mixed
bathing are in use so near that grad
ually. though slowly, they are being
initiated in the seaside town. One has
only to step on board a channel steam
er and cross to Dieppe and see how the
French cousins manage over there.
Father, mother, sister, brother, all
battle together, but the garments they
wear are very different from those
worn on the English coast.
Small wooden huts stand in a long
row upon the PLACE (beach) and take
the place of the English machines. Idly
rocking upon the waves there is a boat
with boatmen in attendance, who re-
main guarding the safety of the merry
crowd. Swimmers can reach this haven
of rest whenever they are weary, and
very pleasant indeed it is to hang upon
1t lazily and be gently lifted up and
down with the rise and fall of the
waves. Non-swimmers also feel that a
welcome rope would be flung to their
assistance should they accidentally get
out of their depth.
From the little bathing boxes bathers
trip down to the waters edge. The
men are entirely clothed in swimming
suits of various hues, and the ladies
have dainty bathing dresses, which do
not belle the name. as in every case
the pattern takes the form of a skirt
to the knees, practically hiding the full
Knockers underneath.

KITCHEN LABOR.SAvERS ,

A mop-wringer adjustable to any pail
makes possible the use of very hot
water or strong cleansing fluids. The
water is pressed from the mop by
of a lever, and a very young
girl will be able to use it successfully.
A bread-maker reduces the labor of
bread-making to a minimum. and If
directions are followed, it's use will re-
suit in a fine-grained, sweet and whole
some bread.
A covered rooster does away with the
task of constant basting.
Among the other small conveniences
which should be found in every kitchen
are asbestos mats, metal kettle-scraper,
rubber plate-cleaner, toast-rack, toast
ers, broilers, double boiler, wire egg
whip, e~gg-beater, a dish-mop, scrub
brushes for cleaning vegetables, a vege-
table-slicer, apple-parer and can
opener, as we'll as a plentiful supply of
the ordinary Observation-Disclosures Bazaar.

MAHOGANY CANDLESTICKS


There is quite a return at present TO
the use of mahogany eandlesticks for
the bedrooms and living-rooms. They
are even used ON supper tables.
The mahogany is old with a high
polish and stands quite high on a nat
base. The candles are used without
shades. A pair of them is a good finish
to a mahogany bookcase, also to a
mahogany desk.
