the small grain put in right and on

are also many which will cut this

''On the other hand, should we by
any chance remarry it seems very UNI
fair of our friends to remark, as they
certainly do: oh, yes; Mrs. So-and- so
is married again! Every one knew that
she would not be a widow long. Why,
she fairly hooked the poor mani or
some similar kind of statement"
1t has been said that the widow is
popular. which she undoubtedly is, be-
cause she understands men. That Is
true to some extent. but her popularity
is not due solely to that cause The
men flock around her for various rea-
sons-sometimes because she combines
the brightness Of girl with the sensi-
bility of a woman. a rare combination
much appreciated by mere man. Some
times because she has money is a wild
ow desired.
This is usually the case, for It will be
observed that the poor widow is not
nearly so attractive. Sometimes she is
sought because she has experience and
is more likely to make good wife and
sometimes because of love for her. This
is the last, the most unusual, but not
by any means the least reason, thinks
that poor, lonely, much talked about lit
tie widow.

The Back Yard
Vacation

Did you ever try a back yard vaca-
ton? It's a whole heap better than
nothing, though not as satisfying as
the real thing
The preparation for such a vacation
is not elaborate, the most exacting de-
mand being the possession of a child's
crib with one side cut off and the legs
shortened to couch size. AS the vaca-
ton will last all summer it is well to
paint this couch white and cover the
mattress with green Bingham and the
pillows with the same material. The
covers should be removable.
Over the couch is fastened a large
canopy umbrella, the kind street takers
use, which should be fastened to a
strong iron stand painted white with a
top that will answer as a table. The
umbrella can be adjusted to any height,
and it is attractive If covered with
green and white striped awning.
With these two articles of furniture
and cotton rug to spread on the grass
on damp days over a rubber blanket
the occupant of the couch could move
to any part Of the yard she pleased to
catch the breeze or keep out of the
sun.
II one has an old steamer chair it can
be added to the couch near the table
1t, too, should be painted white or dark
green

why some enterprising young per-
son has not started a shop for elderly
women's costumes solely" said a dow
ager recently, SIS beyond my compre-
hension, for there is fortune in the
venture" 1t is quite true that smart
and suitable frocks for women past
fifty years are few and far between,
and even dressmakers pay very little
attention to the lines and other details
necessary to make a gown becoming to
such women. Instead, they either per-
Euade their patronesses to take models
meant for debutantes or else turn
them out in dresses of good material,
but atrociously sedate in appearance.
1t has often been said that the elderly
woman of the present time looks
well dressed only when in mourning,
and it has been noted that men, al
though they detest Grape and black
dresses. generally prefer to see their
mothers wear black. All this is be-
cause in turning out mourning dresses
the builders of the gowns take some
pains to make them smart.

Do You Breathe 81
Properly 4?

Do you know that, as a rule. few
people breathe properly? They are
actually too lazy to perform the func-
ton properly, and by not exerting
themselves they impair the beauty of
both form and figure.
Nose breathing and deep breathing
are most important and magical aids
to health and beauty. There is a little
volume published with the title Shut
Your Mouth and Save Your Life"
Rather startling, isn't it? But it is
true. as startling things often are.
Deep nose breathing cannot be too
often practiced when in the open air,
and the purer and clearer the air the
deeper should be the breaths. Try this
often and 1t will become a pleasant
pastime, and its results will soon be-
come apparent in straighter shoulders.
better developed chest, clearer skin
and sweeter breath.
It is really better than any magical
youth restorer in the market. 1t is
truly the best elixir of life" that you
can use, while it will not encroach
upon the purse at all. Just give this
becomes.
You must also make a point of get
ting all the sunshine possible. Human
beings need the sunshine as much as
plants do.

kles. for the very best authorities say
that it does not do anything of the
kind

To Keep School
Friendships

Many girls when they leave school
to go to business are puzzled as to
how to keep up friendships with their
old school chums. A girl who has re-
Gently left school has solved this prob
lem for herself by inventing a third
Thursday" as she calls it. On this
evening every month all her friends
meet at her house for an informal
gathering. She sends postcards out a
of the date, and often as many as
twenty young people put in an ap-
pearance. They are not all girls, be-
cause some of her friends have broth
ers, and they are made welcome
The youthful hostess makes some
plans for keeping her friends amused.
All manner of round games are played,
and then sometimes there is a twostep
or a waltz. while for a change all
gather around the piano and join
heartily in singing popular songs.
Refreshments are reduced to the
minimum cost. Anything in the way
of a sit down supper is avoided, and
the eatables are handed around.
The greatest success has attended
the scheme, which has now developed
to such an extent that the same party
has arranged a long walk to take place
every Saturday afternoon. The meet
ing is fixed for Immediately after
lunch, and on these summer afternoons
tramps and saunters through the
woods will be in form, boating parties.
etc, any arrangement Of time that
suits the place and the party best.

It's Infinite
Variety
- THREATENED things are said

- THREATENED things are said
to live longest, and the blouse
certainly bears out the truth OF
the adage, for in spite of fierce
attacks on its being and much insidlous
undermining of its foundations 1t Is
now well up in years and was never
more hourishing than at the present
time. The holiday months. indeed, are
the time in which the blouse enjoys its
greatest popularity. because it plays SO
necessary part in holiday life And
at the other end of the scale is the
glorified creation, called by courtesy a
blouse, which is more corsage than
blouse and is of so complicated ma
ture that the skirt has to be built
around it.
The rage for the all in one piece gar
ment and the kimono yoke and sleeves
have made the blouse bodice much in
demand. The equally persistent domi-
nance of the passion for yelling every
thing has also been greatly in favor or
the blouse this season. for it enables
the wearer to bring the bodice into line
with the skirt.
Then a third recommendation of the
the coat and skirt have on fashions
not only of today. but of the day after
tomorrow. There is no evidence of any
decline in their favor.
Prognostications say that the fall
will give us little else than the coat
and skirt in some form or other In
spite of we'll attempted efforts to push
the princess gown beneath the coat the
hIOIYca frfYry11 mis- over them all.
But there is one blouse rule to be OBJ
served. There must be no violent con-
trast between the blouse and skirt.
There must be a well marked affinity
between them The one exception is
the lingerie blouse, and this, we may
be assured will never be ousted while
the American woman has say in the
matter. She knows the possibilities of
its dainty freshness and its fine hand
work too well for that. The smart lin
gerie blouse of French make is an af-
fair of quiet elegance, for it is a mass
OF fine work of the kind known to our
grandmothers as "sewed muslin" the
result of hours of patient labor and i'm
paired eyesight. Little lace is used on
these charming lingerie blouses. What
is used is of the best, valuable crochet
or priceless old pieces often being in
serted by way of contrast. Then there
is the lingerie shirt waist, which is
triae less elaborate than the lingerie
blouse that is especially the property
of the coat and skirt costume. In its
best form this shirt waist is of the An
est white French lawn infinitesimally
tucked all over and with no trimming
at all, finished at the neck with mar
row band and bow of black satin. Even
these lingerie blouses have come under
the prevailing craze of yelling and over
them a blouse of wolfe or chiffon, the
same tone as the skirt. is often used,
but somehow it does not seem to &C
cord with the idea of the white blouse.

THE SEASIDE CHAIR.

Have you seen the wicker seaside
chair with canopy top and side like
a huge conch shell? 1t forms the
greatest protection from the wind and
shields the eyes and complexion from
the glare of the sun.
These chairs are being used by wo-
men who have taken up the fresh air
cure at home. When used on a porch
or in the back yard one can sit in all
sorts of weather short of a hard rain
and not feel uncomfortable, and it is
not necessary to bother about shade.
For strong sunlight sort Of awning
extension can be added to the top
front.

Summer Drinks

A DRINK which is easy to make and
pleasant to the taste is grape
juice poured over shaved ice. with
few very small cubes of pineapple. 1t
looks pretty in hollow stemmed
glasses.
Milk shake is made with cupfui of
sugar and three-quarters of a cup of
water that has been boiled and cooled.
Cook for half an hour, stirring often.
Set away to cool. when ready to use
it add a tablespoonful of the strip to
a glass of sweet milk and vanilla fla
voring. Put into a tall glass. fill with
finely pounded ice and reverse another
glass over the lower or use a regular
shaker. Shake hard for two minutes
and pour into tumblers.
Orange punch is a delicious cooling
drink For this connection stir a cup
full of sugar into a scant cupful of wa
ter and simmer for half an hour. Skim
and let it get cold before adding the
strained juice of four oranges and half
as much lemon juice. Beat all well
together. fill chilled tumblers with
pounded ice and pour in enough of the
strip to fill up the interstices.
Lemonade for an invalid is made by
a nurse in this way: A lemon sliced
thin, the seeds are removed. three tas-
blespoonfuls of sugar are sprinkled
over it and two cupfuls of boiling wa
ter are turned over the whole. When
the water is cold 1t is strained through
a cheesecloth.
For refreshing fruit punch chop q
peeled pineapple very fine and cover
with a pint of boiling water. Let it
stand until cold and then strain
through a bag or fine sieve. pressing
out all the juice. Add a cupful of
cherry or other fruit juice, the Juice OF
two lemons and a strip that has been
made by boiling a pound of sugar with
two cupfuls and a half of water. Chill
and just before serving add bottle Of
mineral water.

HINT FOR VACATION TIME

When on your vacation, girls, it would
be well to give little attention to your
complexion, for summer, you know, is
the season for tan, freckles, etc. Sea
bathing and sun combined probably
produce the worst kind of tan, surely
the most unbecoming variety. The sim
pie precaution Of making up the hands,
face. neck and arms before going in
bathing is not hard, and if the skin is
not supersensitive it will come unhurt
through the ordeal of the bath.
Cream is put on first and is then well
massaged into the pores, and the pow
der comes next. 1t is better to put this
on with a rag.
This makeup should be removed i'm
mediately after the bath. The quickest

Great punches of finger puffs and be-

The pin striped fine cotton shirt waist
with lingerie frill down the front is
very chic worn with a coat suit. The
collars and cuffs of these skirt waists
are often embroidered with spots or
tiny flowers to match the color of the
stripes.
The low necked blouse is worn in and
out of season by some women, but the
well dressed woman knows the time
and the place for its appearance, which
is not in the street during shopping
hours or in the office if she happens to
be a business woman except on excep-
tionally hot days, when high neck ar
rangement is intolerable. Nor are the
short sleeves in favor for general wear.
Most Of the blouse sleeves are fairly
tight fitting and long, but at the Shout
ders they are nearly always cut in one
with the yoke or put in raglan fash
ion, but the idea is to mold the Shout
der line carefully and preserve the
slope. The round guirnpe yoke is af-
fected in most of the dressy blouses-in
fact. two or even three of these inner
guimpes are often seen, using different
embroideries and lace. The effect is
very stunning and becoming.
