ity of silk and smart though severe
sticks for their individuality. There
are good looking plain green parasOls,
too, with bordering bands of black vel
vet or with a border design embrOid-
cred in black chenille. Sometimes this
border is above a narrow edge of black
velvet; sometimes the velvet is omit

A charming green parasOl seen at a
country club recently was in green of
a rather unusual shade, bright, yet soft.
Perhaps jade may best describe it.
The cover was apparently of a soft,
heavy taffeta and was edged by
fringed frill of the silk. The plain
smooth stick was Of green exactly
matching the silk, but the end Of the
handle and Of the ferrule was of plain
crystal. A big fringed bow of taffeta
adorned the stick just inside the han
die.
Cerise, purple, the bright blues and
rose tones, the fuchsia reds, all Of the
bright cOlorings favored by fashion
are to be found in quantity among the
parasOIs, sometimes in plain effects,
sometimes toned down by touches of
black or white or by yelling in trans
parent materials. Some Of the pret-
test parasols seen for use with dressy
summer toilets are of chiffon In bright
color, hemstitched around the edge
and lying smoothly over softly fuIled
Innings or foundations Of white chiffon
which break into little frothy frilis
under the hemstitched borders of col
or.
ParasOls of plain light color, pink,
lavender, light blue, etc, striped with
hairlines Of black and bOrdered by
bands Of black one or two inches wide,
above which appear delectabIe floral
borders, are among the daintiest Of the
parasols for use with fluffy summer
frocks.
Embroidery and paintings are used
to embeIlish some Of the more elabo-
rate parasOls, but these have hardly
the cachet Of the lace trimmed and
velvet trimmed and plain models.
In shape there are no absolutely new
variations. The pagoda appears, but
it is not new, and even thu shape with
shirring In the centers Of the sections
between the ribs was tentatively
launched last season

Blue satin is drawn In folds upon q
girdle form around the waist, and IN
der this sash are tucked the ends Of
wide revers that turn back upon the
blouse on each side of the little green
satin vest. 1t is quite mOdish to in
troduce note Of apple green costumes
of blue and also Of Helen pink, where
the contrast in color is even more star
ting. In this gown an apple green
vest shows above the joining lace
beading around the edges Of light blue
lace undersleeves and also upon the
edge Of the collar.
With this costume is carried a strip
ed chiffon parasOl Of the same colOring
as the gown, and dark blue is promi-
nent in the hat.
No more charming style Of gown
could be designed for summer wear
ing, and the fashion is one easily cop
led in chiffon, striped mulls, lawns and
batistes and in figured and plain goods
combined Dots and stripes also COM
bine well, and the bOrdered effects to
be found in all styles of goods at pres
ent lend themselves admirably to this
style of dress.
Chiffon and kindred diaphanous ma
terials have never been so cheap, and
it pays to buy them while the price

inches wide, and the embroidery is
given an edging of the same, which
figures again as a foot trimming.
The bodice exploits one of the new
est Paris notes in its empire lines, with
the narrow peplum that is here work
ed out with the embroidery points. It
is entirely of an all over embroidery,
matching the pattern of the skirt
trimming, and is of the usual kimOno
suggestion, except that there is a lit
tie more fullness above the belt Of vel
vet ribbon.
The same model would be effective In
china silk with an all over lace or net,
or it offers an excellent idea for max
ing up the embroidered robes that are
to be bought in any of the shops.

Survival of KimonO Sleeve.

1t is strange how faithful Dame
Fashion is to the kimono sleeve, which
still appears on the latest models, and
we have gone back TO the very high
waist effect. In most of the new skirts
there is a loose plait at the back.
which hangs down to varying lengths,
but generally reaches the hem. This
has charming effect and takes away
the extreme severity of the plain tight
skirt. The train, which has made its
appearance, is either cut quite square
or is very narrow indeed.

USING A LINEN SKIRT.
DoiIies and Other Table Decorations
Can Be Made of Discarded
Garments.

The hOusekeeper whose supply OF
doilies is getting low should look over
her summer wardrobe and see if there
are any heavy linen skirts not worth
making over, but whose material will
last for years.
These can be cut into doilieS Of va
rious sizes. One woman from the best
parts of nine gored skirt cut an oval
centerpiece, twelve plate dOilies and
twelve tumbler dOilies to match, with
four smaller ovals for under dishes.
The plate doilies were nine inches in
diameter finished and the tumbler dol
lies FIVE inches.
There was no extra cost for stamp
ing, as the edges were finished with
a grouped scallOp, the central one be-
ing twice the size Of that on each side.
This applied to the dolly brought two
Of the smaller scallops side by side,
with large one between every two.
The scallOps were padded with chain
stitch and worked in No. 80 mercerized
white cotton in a close buttonhole
stitch
In the center of each scallop was
worked an eyelet, that in the big
scallOp being larger than the others
A second row of the smaller size was
added, placed opposite the point where
the two small scallops join. This gives
a pyramidal effect alternating with the
larger eyelets. At one side Of each dolly
were embroidered initials in small
block letters.
This design is easy to copy If one
experiments with the correct sized
scaIlop for each dolly.

A MARoUlSEUE GOWN.
Simple and Beautiful Garment Can
BE Trimmed With Various Ma
terials-Parasol to Match.

Wonderfully distinguished and yet
wonderfully simple is the gown Illus
trated. 1t Is OF striped marquisette in
dark blue and white. Between the
skirt hem and the wide border around
the lower portion OF the overdress q
band Of dark blue satin is allowed to
show. Satin Of the same sort forms
a shaped piece that gives weight to
the end Of the wide sash panel which
hangs down the side Of the dress.

Hooks on Skirt Band,

One would think every one would
know that the best way to keep q
blouse and skirt together is not to USE
safety pins, but to sew hooks in the
skirt and eyes to correspond on the
back of the waistband of the blouse
and yet, judging by all the specimens
Of waist and skirt divorce and com
plete separation that we see, there are
still many to whom that knowledge
is lacking. 1t might be well to say ir
addition that f the blouse be too deli
cate in fabric to stand the strain a bit
of tape should be sewed to its back
on which the eyes can be fastened.

Diet For Warm Weather.

Red meats may be omitted for q
fortnight if there is a tendency to skin
eruptions. Lamb, fish and chicken
raw eggs and buttermilk make nour.
ishing summer diet when combined
with fresh vegetables, oranges and
grapefruit and light salads.
Do not OverdO physically. Get s

of not resting. Lie down in the day

Lace Insertion.

When making lace insertion in the

frock, where the lace must stand some
strain, place strips of bObbinet or net
under the lace. All lace yOkes, indeed,
should have a net lining. They are

The newest. called MILDLY ties, are

our PLEASANT TRIP

1
to visit relatives in different
parts of Texas and Arkansas.
We spent the first night in
Lakewood, N. M, with our dau-
ghter, Mrs. Wallace, then to Big
Springs, Texas. where we visited
my brother, w. B. Luck. We
had not notified any of our rel
atives of our trip hence we took
them all on surprise. When we
got to Big Springs l called my
brother out in the dead hours of
the night to meet some friends
of his at the depot who wanted
to spend q couple of days with
them. Our stay was very pleas
ant to be sure. We went from
there to German. Texas, where
my sister, Mrs. DR.. Carlton, was
called out in the middle of the
night to meet someone she knew
not who. We had a very pleas
ant visit with them. From there
we went to the Dallas Fair. 1t
would require too much space TO
describe the wonderful things we
saw there. One can hardly con-
ceive of such a vast collection of
products of all kinds until he has
seen it, although their fruit ex-
hibit was hardly comparable to
the Roswell. N. NJ, exhibit, but
everything was grand. After
taking in the sights there we
went to Mckinney to visit Mr..
Reeds sister, Mrs. A. L. Funder-
burg. We gave them a jolly sur
prise also. Mckinney is great

home of fine horses, large fat
hogs and lots to eat. After

Washington.-In response to the
request of Hayti, the American gov
eminent has formally rendered Its
good offices to both Hayti and Santo
Domingo in a friendly effort to bring
about settlement Of the territorial
dispute that is seriously threatening
the peace of the two countries.
Secretary Knox has sent kilograms
to the American ministers at Port au
Prince and Santo Domingo City d.
recting them to inform the respec-
tive governments to which they are
accredited that the United States
stands ready to intervene.
Official advices indicate that the
situation is extremely serious. While
both countries have taken a definite
stand from which neither will recede,
1t is believed they are anxious to
avoid war. This belief has given rise
to the impression that the offer of
the United States will not be de-
clined.
