A Pretty Apron.

Dear Miss Doom:
I would like to make a pretty tea
apron for lawn parties and such af-
fairs, but I am utterly devoid of ideas.
Car you help me? LUCY.
A very dainty apron can be made of
Persian lawn. with a drawn-work Dor
der, the edge to be finished with a mar
row hemstitched hem about one inch
wide, mitred at the corners. TIL drawn
work may come one-half inch above the
hem, and the design be as simple as
possible, worked with V outlining
threads, one through the centre and
two on each side. This will separate
the groups of threads into Two and
four parts. The cut edges at each cor
ner may be finished with b%uttonhole
stitching n the open space filled with
a spider web. The strings have a bor-
der of drawn-work above the hem, and
the apron is Joined to the belt with a
row of Misunderstanding.

TO PERFUME THE HAIR. )

One of the latest aids 10 beauty is
the perfumed nightcap. This is very
much like the cap worn by our grand
mothers, but on a much more elaborate
scale. being made of silk or very fine
muslin, trimmed with flmy lace.
Cunningly concealed in the cap is a
tiny receptacle for scent, nj when worn
it leaves a delicate perfume elinging to
the hair. 1t need not necessarily be
kept for night wear alone: if it is put
on for half an hour or so before dinner
tho perfume will cling to the hair for
the remainder of the evening.

When the Eyes are hot and tired after

to the sun and dust, try the following
simple lotion:
Take a ~teaspoonful of boracic acid
crystals and dissolve them in half a
pint of boiling water. Bottle when

and enough hot water to make it luke
warm, and battle the eyes with IT.;
then dry very thoroughly. 1t is perfect
" harmless and most soothing.
Never drop eau-de-eologne or bella
donna into the eyes to make them
sparkle. as some people advise one 30
do. IT is a most dangerous habit. and
sooner or later, if persisted in, is bound
to injure the eyesight.

The Art Of Overlooking.

Nobody can live long in the world
and not admit that the words moth
ing for nothing" contain sad
amount of truth He is, of course,
fool who does not count the cost so
far as the future is concerned but
scarcely less a fool is he who does
not overlook past costs. If we have
any good or delightful thing in this
life, at all hazards let us not faint
our enjoyment by considering what
we gave for it. Was it more than we
could afford? Never mind; we have
afforded it, we have made our pur-
chase. Let us take off the ticket with
the price and burn the receipt. There
are items in life's ledger which must
be overlooked, unless we would spend
all our days in balancing close ac-
counts.-London Spectator.

Dutch Architecture.

The architecture of Holland could
be summed up in the one word hon
est. Pretence is altogether lacking,
but to many people that is far FROM
being a fault The influence of Ger
many has been greatly felt, owing, Of
course, to the close proximity of that
country. The French feeling has also
found its way into the Netherlands
for the same reason; but the Italian
influence has rarely been known, and
its absence is always to be depre-
Gated.
The Dutch are a neat, thrifty peoS
pie, and their houses express to a
marked degree many of their traits.
In the cities and small towns, for in
stance, the trim rows of private
dwellings are particularly attractive,
though built primarily for comfort
and devoid of much adornment.
While Dutch house exteriors may
not invariably please the eye it mis-
be remembered that the Hollanders
have greatly atoned for their lack of
artistic feeling here by a splendid
sense of interior decorating. Wit
ness, for instance, their passion for
delft, porcelain and other ceramics,
and the uses to which they have put
them in their schemes for interiors.
They cannot, then, be called
wholly inartistic people. Their homes,
on the contrary, are worthy of the
closest study, and the duplication of
Dutch house, inside and out, should
prove a fascinating idea. A Dutch
kitchen, for example, is always de-
and the same feeling carried
through the entire house would maNe

Many of the hats have velvet fac

In the new hats many round crowns

Colored embroideries are quite

Tiny velvet buttons are seen on
some of the prettiest foulard gowns

Large sailor hats, with more or

With all the richness and beauty
of the seasons materials, there is a
fad for expensive simplicity.
Instead of single fancy button as
finish to the front of a coat, tassel
more or less elaborate is often used.
The return of the blouse and sep
arate skirt restores the sash and belt
to favor, and they are found in at
tractive styles in leather and silk.
While sleeves are short, it is still
considered better taste to cover the
lower part of the arm with tight I'M

ABOUT BUYING BARGAINS.

Some women seem to be born with
CLOTHES sense Others acquire 1t
through long and expensive exper-
fence. And some never haveit. There
are very few women who are not
amenable to the temptation of bar
gain. And the bargain in the hands
of the woman of judgment is great
aid toward dressing well on small
sum.
On the other hand it is often a
great STUN bling block in the way OF
one who has not learned discrimina-
ton. Merely because thing is cheap
is no good reason for its purchase.
1t is best to study the needs Of the
wardrobe. In planning the wardrobe
make out list of what you already
have on hand Then in buying the
new things see that they harmonic
with the older clothing you wish to
wear them with. For instance, if you
have a blue tailor-made suit left over
from last year, which will serve an
other season, and you wish to get
new dress and a new hat to wear with
both the dress and the suit, do not
get purple hat and brown dress. The
thing to do is to get both to harmon
ize with the leftover suit. Women
who buy like this are always we'll
dressed, and they spend far less

MARY GARDEN ON SINGING.


when I am asked what I consider
to be the best conditions under which
q girl who would become an opera
singer must study, I say first of all
the minimum CT money" says Mary
Garden, in Harper's Bazaar: ito stand
alone without money-unnecessa
money-or friends. Does this sound
very heartless? / do not mean that
the girl should starve in the tradi-
tional attic or that she should not
be comfortably fed and clothed, for
these two things are most important,
and their lack is a serious, often a
fatal handicap. Some great artists
have succeeded in spite of such condi-
tions, but l am quite sure they would
tell us that they do not owe anything
to them. Severe hardship is not 'es-
sential to success, as some senti-
mental people seem to think. But
dc say that the girl who is expected to
become an opera-singer must work
hard and live simply, travel in buses
no cabs-be without superfluous
money for entertainment. She must
not forget that she is there take
it for granted she is abroad-tor

time"

PLEASING SILK HAT BAGS.

If you have woman friend who is
planning to take long trip, make
her silk hat bag, and win her heart
felt gratitude. Most of the Pullman
porters are ready to supply the trav-
eler with paper bags for the protec-
ton of the hat, but these bags are
stiff and unwieldy, and one of soft
china silk, provided with a ribbon run
through casing at the top, will be
much more convenient.
On the outside of the bag, near the
lower edge, may be placed pockets,
closed by snap buttons, for the ac-
commodation of gloves and veil. Thus
everything for little jaunt away
