WITH THE FOULARD FROCK
Most Appropriate Hat to Accompany
This Popular Material Of the
Moment.

A hat OF drawn net made over a
wire frame, which would go appro.
priately with a foulard frock, could
have bias edges and a chou of i'm.
mense size of the same silk The ad-
dition of rose would give it the true
milliner look, for the modiste always
gives an extra little touch to these
home-made-looking hats. Some trim.
mings for the coarser straw hats are
of the rudest description-wide scarfs
of linen SO rough that it seems like
canvas, and this patched over at the
ends with one or more bias bands OF
Powered cotton. One black hat seen
recently had scarf Of linen. as coarse
as gunny sacking and figured cotton
bands in the most dazzling hue. AS
the trimming was all very stiff, it was
put primly about the crown, with an
immense tailored bow at the side.
More dressy styles may be made OF
Powered chiffon and plain taffeta
these materials in bright or delicate
colors providing the smartest hat that
can be had for the midsummer frock
in airy materials. A superb hat worn
at a recent affair was of chantecler
red chiffon figured with deeper red
mingled with smoky blue. 1t was in
the shape of huge sailor. The chit.
fon was shirred with cords over wire
frame, taffeta in the lighter shade
binding edges and forming the crown
band and side bow-not taffeta put on
in the usual manner, but finely plated
and edged In turn with neat plain
bias. The very edge of the hat had
this double treatment Of the silk and
it showed up most artistically In the
wide band and bow. Although the
price paid for this hat was $40. il
could be made at home for 81.

1t was ten o'clock in the evening,
and Rex Denham was strolling about
the streets and smoking and thinking.
He had landed from an ocean liner
that day. He had been two years
abroad to forget things. He asked
himself If he had succeeded, and he
shook his head and sighed.

his most confidential friends. He
must fight it out alone.
No; he had not forgotten. She
probably had, just as thousands OF
other women had. Had he been too
hasty in speaking the words that
brought on the quarrel?
If you charge me with that l never

said.

whispered, that she gloried in break

self the question in London-Paris-
Berlin-on the land and on the sea,
but he had never answered it to his
own satisfaction. He was asking it
again tonight as he sauntered and
smoked.
A girl ten or twelve years old walk
ed rapidly past him. He saw her only
as he had seen hundreds of others.
She was thirty feet ahead of him when
a man sprang out Of dark doorway
and seized her and grabbed at the
poor little purse in her hand. At her
first scream for help the smoker
leaped forward. He reached over the
shoulder of the struggling girl and
grasped the man by the throat and
then struck with his cane. The re-
leased victim retreated to the curb
stone and stood to watch the affair
She enjoyed it. She grinned and
smiled.

ished as long ago as 1S49, survived
until February last. He was John
Griflths and was bailiff or officer OF
the ancient institution, with Jur1sd1c-

it was regularly opened and adjourned

article folds in three flaps and is tied
firmly with colored ribbon. The
monogram Of the owner Is suggested
as the personal touch always appre1

One piece Of pasteboard will make
the holder for stockings. Cover with
paste and apply the cretonne, silk or
poplin. Or sew the material as sug1
gested in the handkerchief case.
This straight piece should then be
folded and the hosiery slipped bel

tied over the case and it's contents Isl
good finish. ;
