EADS AND FASHIONS

Thin muSlins, etc, are not very
practical morning or afternoon frocks
for the shore, though of course they
are much worn. The cotton CLEANLINESS
and voiles, utterly devoid of stiffen-
ing, keep their freshness better than
linens, batistes and other materials of
similar character, but of course if one
does not mind pressing the latter out
after each wearing. they may be made
to give excellent service.
The trig little coats known as top
coats are smarter than ever this seas
on They have lost that unsightly,
skinny air that they bore last au-
tumn and are cut on entirely differ
ent lines, many having the fronts cross
waste of material, the effect is far
less combining and there is bit of
fullness in the back introduced through
narrow plat. Sometimes the plat
is arranged in the form of a floating
panel similar to that seen on skirts
and gowns: then again the entire skirt
of the coat will be fulled onto a short
waist, giving it a decided empire eff
feet. Such garments are made of silk
serge. mohair, pongee, shantung and
heavy linen. Big buttons add much to
the finished garment regardless of the
material from which it is cut.
The idea of wearing shapely collars
OF black hemstitched chiffon cloth is
attractive. The collars are put on
white blouses, on light colored mar
quisette gowns, on black frocks when
they are overlaid with a shallow col
lar of white Irish lace or white chiffon
cloth, also hemstitched
These collars are not always in
strict sailor shape. They vary consid-
erably. The points may run out to
the sleeves and the back and front,
cut off in straight lines. Again, the
collar may be as deep as bib in the
back and sharpened off to points in
front. One can buy them in the shops,
but it is better to get the hemstitched
material by the yard and cut them &C
cording to the desire of the wearer.
Lingerie coats for children are
made Of dotted swiss over pale rose
or blue china silk. These, with the
lovely lingerie hats shown in the best
shops, make cool, attractive costumes
for the little ones
For slippers, soft little crushed
rosettes of tulle or chiffon, in some
instances sprinkled with crystal beads
to resemble dew, are exceedingly
pretty, as are buckles Of pearl or col
ored beads.

Marbles.

Marbles got their name from the
fact that originally little bits of mar
BILE were rolled down the hills and
rounded and pounded by other stones
until they became toys for the chill
dren TO play with. 1t is said that the
Dutch exported them to England.
Whether they did or not makes little
difference to the boys and girls of to-
day. No matter who introduced the
world to marbles as toys. they are
with us and always will be. Some of
you get them from other children, some
of you trade postage stamps for them,
but some persons originally bought
them from the little store around the
corner. whose owner got them from
the greatest toyshop in the world

were called bowls" and men and wo

Who used to smoke dried mullen

Until your throat was burned and

When, through your Redeemed eyes,

And oftentimes our dads gave

They all were tyrants bold
Who quite forgot that they were
younger
Before they got so old!
The while the strap fell hard and
fast
And angry welts arose,
We had to smile to think at last
We'd blown 1t through Our nose!
We're older now, and smoke and

And many have the govt
The world has oft applauded us.
With reason, too, no doubt:

A thoughtful book touching on the

Cunningham. 1t is small volume,
one of series but complete in itself.
1t is full of good suggestions for both
the individual and the state. Some of
these are not little startling at first
glance; for instance, that the cultiva-
ton and practice of self control tends
to make imperative the doctrine of
Nautilus by deferring marriage. That
is true, no doubt. but will hardly
meet with the favor of young people;
while yet it is coming about auto

is desirable or not 1t is in progress all
over the earth. And as the tone of
mortality of a race is conceded to
have much to do with it's virility and

are being made by the committee in
charge. Over two hundred invitations
have been issued, and a number of out

grams are something entirely new and
very unique. Maggart and Gessler

popular diversion. For the shops are
showing such exquisite linens and

of lingerie, bags, belts. dainty little ap-

that many embroidery coteries have
been formed which seem to be mu-

stitches. AS one young woman few
days ago remarked to a friend who is
an expert needle woman, III you will
show me how to make the ladder
stitch on my lingerie waist, why I'll
be only too happy to teach you how to
crochet those adorable belts and bags
which all the girls are making now"
Speaking of crochet belts and bags,
have you seen them? When you do,
you will surely wish to possess them,
for they add much to the summer
girls wardrobe, and some of them are
of the quaintest designs, much like the
ones of our grandmother's day.

other piece of household linen, which
was to be hemmed. The party sat
