SARTORIAL HINTS.
By Elizabeth Lee.

The Robespierre collar Is a compro-
mise between the Dutch round neck and
the boned stock.
While the style is not universally be-
coming, 1T is very comfortable fash
ion and is much to be preferred for street
wear to the low neck In any case.
The short neck is digni1ed by the snug
fit Of these collars at the sides and back.
while the fronts, turning back, are de-
lightfully cool.
Women no longer young should well
come the Robespierre.
The little jabot gives very soft fin
ish at the throat. This may be only a
Wisp of a frill, or IL the wearer is quite
slender, then fulLplaited double frI,
will be becoming.
The cut-Out neck on a shirt waist is
not in good taste worn on the street ex-
cept by quite young women. but when
may be cut in a short, sharp v back and
front. the sides hugging the neck. This
is very pretty when the neck Is plump
or the chin fat. and. Of course. as COM
Portable as it is pretty fiat trimming
makes the incest fnish-as a beading
threaded with velvet, a strip Of en-
broidery, a tiny fitted shallow yoke or q
| short length of galloon.
The turn-back frill worn SO much now
would not be success. There is not
lar as there is to the slightly low cut
collarless neck. provided the dress is not
covered by wrap of any kind. A turn
| down collar is not pretty when overlaid
by a coat collar, no matter what kind of
| a collar Is used
Some persons think that because the
coat collar is covered with lace or some
| thing similarly soft and light about the
! face that the high stock collar may be
omitted.
But this is a mistake. The turn-down
collar may be cool, but the effect will be
dowdy.
In such a case one might add the sepa-
rate collar (stock) of lace or embroidery
| finished with a little jabot for street wear.
removing 1t when coming into the house
in favor Of the more comfortable turn
over collar. In this way the same blouse
could be worn both for street and house.
Some Of the very prettiest blouses de-
pend entirely upon the fine stitching for
trimming The finest handkerchief lawn
| Is used for some Of the more expensive
kinds. These are finely hand-tucked and
all seams put together with yelling.
There is very tiny veining In real
baby Irish. Fine lawn or plain swiss
made up with tucking and these laces
made into waist would be the daintiest
thing imaginable and cost no more really
than the average lace-trimmed blouse.
What one saved In buying trimming
| could be put into the quality OF the ma
terial.

cuffs to match, makes a pretty decora-

Both white and black sets are seen
and sometimes the two tones combined
as black over white
| Navy over white is very effective trim
ming for a navy frock, though some may
prefer emerald green softened with ivory
white.
OF course, fashions are ALWAYS over
done, and in this case I think 1t happens
when chiffon collars top dresses Of heavy
wash materials Embroidery will be in
| far better taste.

Fabrics and Fashions.

Not only souple cloths, but silks, sucn
as brocade, MORE, taffetas and satin, are
made OF an exquisitely fine quality ana
softness which may be to some extent
responsible for the clinging effect OF
gowns that are worn this season and
that are made Of these delectable
fabrics.
Not only silky cashmere but face
cloth itself is so soft and fine that one
may say of it that it might very we'll be
passed through a ring-though that, of
course, might depend on the rings cir
conference. The styles Of the season
match the fabrics with their fluid
draperies and the graceful lines of skirt
and corsage alike.
The low-cut yokes Of the season add
homething to it's lightness and grace,
though too much stress must not be
laid on a somewhat ever exuberant de-
tail Of the fashions. On the whole,
howeveE the softly draped. loosely fit
ting corsage is charming and the last
touch Of daintiness is given by its col
lar or revers of lingerie or lace. or the
prettily arranged fichu, which leaves the
throat bare to the SUMS caresses.

PETER RABBIT HAS A GREAT LAUGH.

YES" continued Peter Rabbit. =

went up there last night. I'm much
obliged to you for telling me OF 1t
Reddy Fox; I am. indeed.
For just little minute an ugly Iook
crept into Reddy's face, for now he
fooled him. But he kept his temper
and managed to smile. as he said:
'Oh, don't mention it. Peter Rab
bit, don't mention it. But tell me
didn't you meet the monster?
NO" replied Peter Rabbit And then
do whax he would, he couldn't keeI
sober another minute, but began te
laugh just as he had before.
whats the joke. Peter Rabbit? Tel
me so that 1 can laugh, too, begged
Reddy Fox.
why" said Peter Rabbit when he
could get his breath. the joke Is that
the monster that frightened you sc
was the old straw hat OF Farmer
Browns boy and l was underneath 1t
Ha, ha, ha! Ho, no. no."
Then Reddy Fox knew just how Dad
ly Peter Rabbit had fooled him. With
a snarl he sprang right over the pram-
BILE brush at Peter Rabbit, but Peter
was watching and darted away alone
one OF his own special little paths
through the old brief patch. Reddy
tried to follow. but the brambles tore
his clothes and scratched his face and
stuck in his feet Finally he had to
give it up Torn and bleeding and
angry he turned back home. and as ne
left the old brier patch he could still
hear Peter Rabbit laughing.

Latest American Fashions
BY CORA MOORE.

Linen costumes both In white and col
ors are as fashionable this season as
ever. Unlike almost every other material.
| they are trimmed, and SAVIOR strongly Of
tailored effects.
| The model sketched is in ecru butch
ers' linen, with a top of comparatively
fine all-over. The skirt Is slightly circu-
lar. and cut over the hips to disclose a
gathered section Of the embroidery, while
the blouse is of the simplest order-the
short sleeves cut in one with the body
portion and banded deep with plain linen
a bib rising from the belt dotted with
buttons and finished with q frill three
ecru of the linen.
| OF the same type Is g. dress Of white
crash in which the back section is laid in
three plaits. and at the knee line is ex-
tended toward the front in tab that
forms a heading for a cluster OF back
ward-tlirning plaits. The waist that goes
with it has cross-Over fronts that inclOSe
a pique yoke and collar. while the sleeves
are continued at the top until they fall
in line with the edges Of the yoke In all
| these summer dresses the waist line
whether 1t is covered with a belt or not
| while clearly enough defined, Is never
tightly drawn-another feature that
makes for comfort and for a more youth
full effect.
The old-time regulation shirt suit is an
other development among linen costumes
which is interesting to note. It Is an
other revival that bids fair to oatrival
the popularity it had years ago. Two
variations of it are particularly smart
| One shows a two-piece skirt having
seam down the center. with another
seam and the opening at the baci, the
former opened up for about six inches
from the foot, the corners rounded and
applied to a section that completes the
uniform length. Arrows of the linen and

set section. The blouse is cut precisely
like a mans shirt, with the bosom COM
posed Of lace and the tab fastened down
to the skirt over belt. The other has
an all-plaited bosom effect on the waist
atop a plain skirt.
| Occasionally the belt is OF the linen.
but much more frequently it is OF patent
kid, either colored black, or Of sill {.
If the costume is of the sporting type the
belt more than likely matches the scarf
that is wound around jaunty panama
hat, the wings on the hat, or whatever
| its trimming may happen to be.
/ OF both sashes and belts suitable for
these linen dresses. there are innumeTable
novelties in the shops.

It was just sun-up as Reddy Fox
started down the Lone Little Path on
to the Green Meadows. Reddy was
late. He should be over at the old
briar patch by this time. He had In
vited Peter Rabbit to meet him there.
He was afraid now that. because he
was late. Peter would not be there.
When he came In sight of the old
brier patch, there sat Peter on the edge
Of 1t.
Good morning. Peter Rabbit" said
Reddy Fox in his politest manner. II
am sorry to have kept you waiting. 1t
is all because I had a terrible fright
last night"
"Is that so? What was it?' asked
Peter. ducking down behind a big
bramble bush to hide a smile.
why, went over to Farmer Browns
garden to see If that new planting of
young cabbage was all right, and there
I met terrible monster! 1t frightened
me so that / did not dare to come out
this morning until jolly. round. red
Mr.. Sun had begun to climb up In the
sky, and so I am a little late. Are
you ready, Peter Rabbit, to go up to
the new planting of young cabbage
with me-" asked Reddy. with his
pleasantest manner.
Now, what do you think Peter Rab-
bit did? Why. Peter just began to
laugh. He laughed and hallooed and
shouted. He lay down on his back
and kicked his heels for very joy. But
all the time he took care to keep be-
hind big. friendly bramble bush.
Reddy Fox stared at Peter Rabbit.
He just didn't know what to make Of
it. He began to think that Peter had
gone crazy. He couldn't see a thing
to laugh at, vet here was Peter laugh
ing At to kill himself. Finally he
stopped and sat up
..Did-did-the monster catch you.
Reddy FoxT he asked, wfping his eyes.
No." replied Reddy, 1T didn't catch
me, because / could run faster than
1t could, but it chased me all the way
home"
I'm that case, I think I'll not go up
to the cabbage bed this morning, for
you know I cannot run as fast as you
can. Reddy, and the monster might
catch me-" replied Peter very gravely.

Summer Topsy-Turvydom.

There is some disposition to grumble
at the fondness for black, which is be-
ing shown this summer. in contrast,
for the fancy for white which one no
ticed during the winter. Black, as we
all know. is the most uncomfortable
thing that can be worn during sum-
mer. In all hot countries Of Europe
black is habitual1y worn by the poorer
people. regardless Of what we consid-
or it's inconvenience. Surely. II we
were really eager for a revival Of black
(and 1t seems as IL we have SO much
of 1T under the sad circumstances of
mourning that we never have any
need Of 1t at other times) we might
at least have waited until we had some
reasonable prospect Of being cool.
However. there is no accounting for
tastes, and we can only put this per-
verted notion Of fitness beside the 9TH
er novelty OF the summer season, the
long and combining sleeves which we
elect to wear.
