Summer Entertaining.

AS entertaining In the summer time is
conducted more or less on an informal
basis, the hostess is at liberty to intro
duce novel features into her entertain
ments, which In the more formal winter
time would be looked at askance. new
game of this kind has come into exist
ence with the warm weather this sea-
son. which promises to be decidedly popu-
lar. 1t is called 1.-The deer hunt" and
halls from the sunny south.
For many years the deer hunt has
been a popular pastime in southern
chimes, where it is considered quite the
thing for the hostesses to issue invita-
lions to this novel form Of amusement
The deer in this case are the girls of
the party.
In giving a deer hunt invite exactly
as many girls as men, and ask the girls
to arrive at least thirty minutes before
the masculine members Of the party.
When the men arrive the girls are, Of
course, already on hand, but nowhere to
be seen. for they are hidden away in
some nook out on the lawn or on the
lower floor of the house. Each girl is
given q deer's head made from brown
crepe paper, with open places for mouth,
nose and eyes. This she need not don
however, until the blowing of the hostess
begun.
The men receive hunting caps, made
from cardboard and crepe paper and
little riding whips. Some one who knows
how to manipulate hunting or coaching
horn should be included in the party, for
the blowing OF the horn lends atmosphere
to the entertainment
Before the chase commences each man
is given a slip of paper on which Is writ
ten the name of the dear" he must find
fnr
er who captures the most deer should
receive prize which carries out the sport
ing idea. such as a sporting print, an ink
stand decorated with the hunting insig-
MIA, as a riding crop or something along
this order. The men who fail to find any
deer should receive BOBBY prizes Of tin
horns which they are required to blow in
chorus. The last girl captured should
receive gift and the first humiliation
prize.
The refreshments are decidedly pretty
and novel when carrying out the hunting
idea. The centerpiece for the supper
table should consist OF a bed Of greenery
from which peep a number of deer heads
tied with hunters pink" ribbon.

Hints to Women.

Whether familiarity has bred contempt,
or whatever the cause the fact remains
that a very large majority of women now
view the summer bargain sales with calm
serenity and apparent indifference And
yet at some Of the sales now going on in
the leading establishments women can
pick up smart little gowns at unbelievably
low prices.
The bargain which has particular in
terest to the average woman is the one
which has to do with lace, lingerie and
blouses, while more than once recently
such bargains in tailormades and even
ing gowns were seen as almost to bring
forth the VOW that never again would 1t
be necessary to trouble the smaller
modiste.

INDUCED In at this season Of the year is q

ance with skill doubtless perceive fu-

THE DAILY CHIT-CHAT.
By Ruth Cameron.

In the town of Biddeford, Ne, two
men and a woman were recently jailed
on very serious charges, because the two
little daughters of the woman told the
sheriff some startling stories about a
grave out in their yard.
Fortunately the man who was supposed
to have been inhabiting the grave ap-
peared in the nick of time and proved
that he had not been murdered and the
accused were set free
And now-courage, comrades, this is
what l am driving at-the children's
father has come forward and declared
that his children got their idea of a grave
from a story which he once told them
To brighten them away from the swamp
and brook in which there are some deep
and dangerous holes, he says he told the
children that man and two cows were
buried in that vicinity
A rather Iudicrous outcome for a near
tragic situation, isn't it?
But 1 don't believe that father will try
again very soon to make his children
mind by making up bugaboos for them,
do you?
And l just hope that some of the ia
theirs and mothers who read about this
woman's narrow escape from a murder
trial will also be impressed with the same
lesson
Not long ago an even more terrible
tragedy than this was caused by the
same trick. A woman who was crossing
the Atlantic with two little children tried
to keep the baby from crying by telling
him that If he cried again she would
throw him out the portfolio into the
ocean. few minutes later, while the
mother was out of the staterOom, the
baby cried and the other child actually
carried out its mothers threat.
OF course these are unique and horrible
examples of the danger of telling lies to
children to frighten them into obedience
Let's take more commonplace one
prominent doctor has recently written to
me to ask If / will protest against using
the doctor as the bugbear with which to
brighten children. He says he is con-
stantly hampered in his diagnosis of chill
dren's diseases by their unreasoning ter
ror because they have been told that II
they aren't good their mother will get the
or perform some other pleasant little
operation. The result is that when they
are really sick and the doctor is sent for
they run screaming away at sight of him
and a careful diagnosis Is almost lmpos-
sibIe That really serious results might
follow from such state OF analrs any
one can easily see.
Every fear is fetter to our fullest de-
velopment and our freest action. We VINO
are older have learned this by hard eX-
perience Then. surely, We ought TO try
TO free our children from any fears that
they may naturally have instead OF serv-
ing our momentary convenience by blnd-
ing them with new shackles.

THE DEMISE OF THE
PEEK-A-BOO BLOUSE

The "peek-a-boo" blouse has long given
way to the superior elegance of the
graceful double ninon slip. so seductive
in its allover clearance. This is varied
by the lace slip yelled ninon. Cool and
semi transparent as these are, they are
not in the least suggestive. A necessary
accompaniment Of the ninon slip, how
ever, that has scarcely secured up to the
present the consideration 1t deserves at
the hands Of those responsible for up-to-
date lingerie, is the cache corset fitted
with a sleeve.
For choice. this should reach to within
a short distance Of the elbow, and fit the
arm closely but comfortably. and the low
er half be entirely composed of lace. Ell
Their a deep insertion, finished with mar
row edging, or lines Of narrow insertion
united by lingerie beading wide enough
for a threaded ribbon. The rubber shield
can be hidden effectively by this dainty
device.

There is no doubt but that the corona
ton has Influenced styles considerably.
The gowns worn by those women who
were fortunate enough to attend the Eng
lish festivities were in marked contrast to
the styles now so popular. For instance,
the instant recurrence of the words
''stomacher and petticoat" In the descrip-
tions of the gowns suggests an entirely
fresh aspect, and one, moreover. that
could not fail to be heartily welcomed
after the insistent classical silhouette. For
a famous English beauty French
modiste arranged a draped petticoat and
stomacher Of rare and lovely application
lace. while another woman selected a
stomacher and petticoat Of old Venise
lace embroidered In fine pearls and noss
silk.
Each toilet. in it's way, was master
piece Of elegance and complete originality
but showing q fullness Of line which is
grateful after the skimpiness Of the pres
ent popular fashions.
