TRIMMINGS THAT HAVE FAVOR
Laces of Every Kind and Description
Are Among the First in Popu-
lar Esteem.

Among the favorite trimmings are
laces OF all kinds, among which are
Venise, Italian, flet and Milan Iaces.
Gold and silver laces are also used on
some of the more elaborate gowns.
Hand embroidery is much seen. A
number OF beaded trimmings are
shown. and there seems to be a ten
dency to favor large beads somewhat
on the order OF Indian beads, which
are noted on several Of the Paquin
models.
Braids of all kinds are used on tail
or made suits and dresses, in various
widths, in plain and fancy designs.
Fringe, tassels and braid ornaments
are also among the trimmings and
arouse much attention Silk fagoting
is used to a great extent on many OF
the best models. There is also quite
a liberal use made of velvet ribbon,
which was employed largely for
sashes, In both black and coIors.

TAKING PLACE OF FEATHERS
Aisrettes of Wheat Just Now Are the
"ReaI Thing" for Variety
of Reasons.

No one seems to be able to ex-
plain why fashion is leaving the enor-
nous aigrettes of white and black,
which have been with us so long, IN
less it is a laggard desire to be hui
manitarian. The restriction thrown
around birds by the laws of the states.
and the difficulty and cost of getting
aigrettes, has given many miIliners
a good reason not to carry them in
stock. The expense of buying one is
the best reason for their unpopular
ity
The milliners, liking the effects of
the aigrette, have determined to use
many other materials to take its place,
therefore the new hats are trimmed
with silken wheat in the form OF an
aigrette. Some of it is in the natural
color and a great deal Of it is dyed
to match the hats or frocks.
One sees much blue and green and
purple. The green is the most popu-
lar for summer use. as it is re-
freshingly cool

Keene Warden sat at the clumsy,
oId-fashioned writing desk. staring
hopelessly at a blank piece OF letter
paper. Several fragments were scat
tered on the floor, bearing testimony
to fruitIess efforts. He was better ed
ucated than the average farmer in the
vicinity of CornsviIle. and he had a
clear. reasoning mind, but his under
taking was OF a delicate nature More
over his six feet OF manhood strobe
away from other peoples business in
stead Of poking into it.
He felt that he owed 1t to his faith
er's memory to protect his fathers
friend, Stephen Ross, in his old age.
In his day Stephen had been a pros
porous farmer. Successive off-seasons
had done their work and the inevitable
mortgage had rolled up its added in
terest His wife's illness and death
had weakened his strength and ambi-
ton. He had lost his farm and gone
to live on ten-acre strip saved from
the wreck Then his only son, who had
no aptitude for farming, had gone
west, married, made a fair fortune in
mining stocks and written to his
AdlASL " Jul anu SAdA LIZ AAA-
urious home.
But the old mans heart and mem
cries were too strongly rooted in his
meadow lands to stand transplantfng.
So the son had bought the farm back
and let his father live on it, also max
ing him a generous allowance. Stephen
was as happy-ss his solitary hreside
would allow him to be, but the fire
side was about to be cheered by his
granddaughter, a young girl Of nine
ten whom he had not seen in fifteen
years Her father was going to Mexico
for a six months sojourn among some
mines and she had written that she
felt a longing to see her fathers boy
hood home and her grandfather.
It's really hers, you know" Stephen
had said, when telling Keene the news.

The crowns are a1l big and soft,
supported by light wire frames. The
brims are all fluffy ruff1es, varied,
elaborated and abundant. Ribbons,
soft and lustrous and gay, small, gar
den or field flowers make up their
trimmings. Gauze ribbons are often
used and are in keeping with the rest
of the airy fabrics. Occasionally
bonnet is provided with ties but the
elastic fastener is used in most cases
and is comfortable and secure, that
is, as secure as any method of fasten-
ing in use at present
Nearly all these bonnets are made
up in white. but the pale blues and
pinks are not entirely neglected. It
is said white ones can be tinted to
pale shades, by processes known to
the milliner.

Her father decided it to her when he
bought it." IS
Her coming will cheer you up won
YES" agreed the old man, but there
was a reservation in his tone, fore
boding in his eyes, and Keene gradu-
ally drew from him the cause. It was
this talk which had prompted the let
ter to Ruth Ross Finally he managed
to explain to this pampeTed young per-
son that he- grandfatheEw old and
lived entirely In the past, clinging
pathetically to old ways.FHe told her
he knew that the farm WIS hers, but
he urged her not to make the improve
ments that would doubtless suggest
themselves to her This the old man
was fearing and dreading that she
would do.
About six days after the mailing of
this letter he looked for a reply, but
none came.
She is offended and thinks me
nervy," he thought ruefuI1y. Med
dlers always make matters worse
She'll probably take pains to do all
the things asked her not to do"
4 week later Ruth Ross arrived and
Keene went over to meet her He en-
tered the big living and dining room,
braced to meet a scornfU young dam
sell The room was lighted OILY by the
flames from the fireplace. The oidsman
sat tn-his usual place, looking, as
Keene's quick, keen glance noted, ten
years younger and 20 years happier.
A slender slim of a girl with soft sweet
eyes and smooth, shining hair came
forward with extended hand.
''Mr. Warden, papa has told me so
often of all the pranks you played

THESE pictures of lovely bonnets
show what happens to the sun
bonnet when the milliner makes
it Of her dainty and soft materials.
Made of lace, chiffon, thin and lus-
trous silks and straws almost as PHI
able, with occasionally the sheerest
batiste or Swiss embroidery, the sun
bonnet almost loses its identity. It
becomes a wonderful example of mil
hnery art and finds a welcome in
hearts already warmly attached to its
plain, work-a-day predecessor.
These elaborate pieces of headgear
are only intended for occasional wear
and may therefore be as fragile as
any dream. They are indeed among
those millinery dreams which cost
many substantial dollars, for much
material and much work goes into
their making.

where one cannot AFFORD linen sheets

When this pipe becomes clogged the
