LONDON. May 3o.-The secret Of taxing
and printing photographs IN color-a pos
sibility sought after eagerly by photos-
raphers as the philosophers stone ny the
alcheInists of old-seems now 10 nave
been achieved.
At the Dover street studios are num-
her of photographs Of we'll known people,
In which the most delicate tints OF eyes
and cheeks and hair, of jewels ana races
and silks, have been reproduced on paper
sensitized by an entirely new process, 50
as to be an exact fac-simile OF the actual
colors seen by the EYE of the camera
although colored plates Of a kind have
already been produced" the inventor. Mr.
Hamburger, said. az can claim that this
is the first time that a true color photo
graph has been printed upon one and the
same sheet of paper without any touching
up or transmitting. Hitherto color
photographs have been reproduced by the
three-color procsss-the primary colOrS
red. yellow and blue. being laid one on
top of another and blending into some
thing that will pass for the real picture
x II
With this method. however. it was
hardly ever possible to get pure black
or a pure gray. This We have managed
TO achieve. I must not explain the exact
way it is done, 1t is a patent but the
result is a photograph that can he true
even to the most infnitesimal details
and, indeed. cannot lie
Take, for instance, this photograph,

Easter Gifts.

Among the handmade Easter gifts
which are now being made there Is
none more charming and more suitable
to this particular occasion than the dainty
trifies which can be made of ribbon.
Especially attractive are the ribbon
flowers. These flowers are used for the
hair. to trim evening gowns. for corsage
boquets and also to decorate all the many
bags and boxes which are included among
fashionable boudoir furnishings. There
are daisies made of loops of ribbon for
petals, with yellow centers formed OF
tiny puff of ribbon; roses in life size and
all the rose shades, meant for wear In the
corsage; wreaths of tiny blossoms for
wear in the hair; apple blossoms in nat
ural and unnatural hues and tiny buds
made of pink Or red ribbon. Many babies
bonnets and even the hats for older chill
dren are being decorated with these rib
bon flowers.
Bandeaux for the hair are made OF gold
ribbon twisted over wire lattice and
decorated with spray of the satin flow
ers. The lattice bandeaux are also made
of the striped ribbon and finished with a
wire knot of the same. Pale greenish
gold gauze ribbon is most effective in
these bandeaux and there are lovely rib
bons in colered satin bOrdered with gold
that are fascinating for this purpose. The
deep blue shades are especially beautiful
Collar bows and small jabots are made
of the narrow satin ribbon adroitly tied in
a succession of, knots. For wear with
sheer lingerie blouses which have rolling
collars. there are collar knots made of a
fan-shaped pleated ribbon from which de-
pend several narrow ribbons with knotted
ends.
Brocaded ribbons and those with gold
and Powered borders are being used for
corset bags.
Exquisite handkerchief bags and veil
cases are made in the same fashion and
decorated with small bouquets Of the rib
bon flowers.

Trimming Spring Hat.

Many girls who can select just the
right hat from among the already trim
med millinery in the shops fail dismally
when it comes to trimming one for them
selves. Yet come to it we must at times
when the low ebb Of the pocketbook pins
us down to economies. Apropos of such
trials here is just a point which may
help out the home milliners of this year.
If the creations of other seasons have
failed to suit the line of the face and ma
terials have been wrongly CT and vast
ed, have you ever thought of trimming
the shape first of all in colored tissue
paper?
This Is plan which, according to one
self-taught milliner, can save a couple OF
dollars even on a single hat. Not only do
the strips and streamers and rosettes cut
from tissue paper serve as patterns. but
they can be laid upon the actual trimming
and will give an accurate idea of how to
cut it to best advantage.
1t is advisable to trim the hat with
paper before purchasing other trimming
II this is not already on, hand. for who
knows what lack Of harmony in the
scheme in hand the first application OF
the colored crepe may reveal.
Moreover, one may discover that the
style of loop first thought Of IL
not the best for the purpose and that
more or less velvet or ribbon than she
had in mind is needed. When the shape
has been becomingly trimmed with the
paper. carefully unpin the various parts,
measure them accurately with tape
measure and purchase accordingly.

Spring Breakfasts.

Early spring breakfasts should be as
light and dainty as possible to tempt the
capricious spring appetite. The balmy
air does not lend the vigor or sharpen
the desire for food that the wiptry winds
have done.
So it must be tempted. First be sure
that the table is daintily laid, with a
fresh spring flower beside each plate. as
we'll as bunch in the center Of the ia
BILE. Table linen spotless. water and fruit
properly chilled. few fresh radishes or
some watercress. also chilled; rolls crisp
and brown, coffee the only kind that
should be known to the culinary world,
being good coffee.
There are those who think that there
is nothing quite like May wine cock
tail to whet the appetite. but that is
matter of individual taste.
Now, as far as the edibles go. they may
be most amazingly simple and not hard
tb get together, even If the mistress has
to hurry herself into her morning gown
to add the finishing touches to the meal.
Carefully eliminate all foods that have
been bowling acquaintances all winter.
This breaks the seasons offerings, leav-
ing each dainty peculiarly its own.
AS there are no very early spring fruits
until cherries are ripe. except those
brought to us from the SOUTH we have to
accept these with our best grace and
thanks to cold storage travelling facilities.
That gives US a choice of strawberries,
pineapple. oranges of different kinds, ba-
nanas, some early melons Of one can
stand the. price at which they are usually
quotedl and the never-failing grape fruit.
The lighter cereals will be found more
acceptable and less heating to the blood
than the winter oatmeal preparations.

NeckWear Fads.

Those girls who must consider laundry
bills. and the number is small who do
not, can have the most attractive white
neckwear and pay nothing for having it
cleansed. because they can do the work
themselves.
Blond lace and India silk null are
veritable treasures, as neither requires
ironing, and both may be washed and re-
newed in a few minutes.
Ties made Of either of these materials
should be long enough to go around the
neck twice, the first twist serving for
the collar. To make this look best a
separate collar foundation Of boned chif-
fon. such as may be bought at any shop,
will be required.
For the tie itself the whole width Of the
material is used. and twenty-seven
inches. as q rule, is good length. though
It may be longer If desired. At each end
should be a ruffle of simple lace of any
width preferred.
The smartest and most becoming way
Of using a tie of this kind is to take one
end firmly in the hands and pull the
other end until both go on the bias. SO
that each Is positively pointed. Stil
holding this point, the tie is put around
the throat twice, bringing the second
wrapping with the ends in front. The
two are then fastened into a square knot,
and the result is q jabot front, with a
smart little knot at the collar. The most
simple waist is thus given dainty finish.
