dressmaker for it and gives carte
blanche in matters of handwork and
real lace, and there are many girls
in ultra smart boarding schools who
have ordered frocks of this type. But
the great host of girl graduates is by
necessity limited to a less costly va
riety of frock simplicity, and after all,
the indefnable charm attached to
youth has more to do with the success
of a graduation frock than hand tucks
and real lace.
There are quantities of models and
materials available for the youthful
graduate The materials most in ia
vor are fine cotton marquisette, cot
ton wolfe, fine linen lawns, lace, net
and chiffon.
The most practical of graduating
frocks is, of course, the frock that
will stand Tubing and look well after
the ordeal Fine lingerie frocks are
nowadays more often sent to the clean
er than to the laundress, but the young
girl is not as a rule over careful OF
her clothes and if frock must go to
the cleaner often during the summer
one will have little comfort from 1t.
Perhaps the summer is to be spent
where no cleaning establishment is
close at hand and inconvenience is
added to the time and expense en-
tailed.
1t stands to reason therefore that
the frock actually fitted for Tubing is
the practical dress for the girl whose
ward robe is limited, and it is quite
possible to take this into consideration
without sacrificing too much upon the
altar of utility

TEA TABLE BISCUITS
IN ALL SORTS OF FORMS THEY
ARE IN HIGH FAVOR.
May Be Served in Whatever ManneF
the Hostess Desires, and viii Be
Appreciated - Some Ideas
That May Be Useful.

The housewife who understands
how to make baking-powder biscuit,
flaIy inside and crusty out, has an
unlimited number of possibilities at
her command For the afternoon tea
table these tiny biscuits are in high
favor and appear in many guises.
Rolled almost as this as a cooky,
sprinkled with grated cheese ana
baked for about five minutes in
moderate oven, they furnish an &C
ceptable accompaniment for either
tea or coffee. Boiled equally thin and
spread with a mixture of sugar ana
cinnamon, moistened with melted but
ter these crisp bits have suggestion
of the much liked cinnamon bread.
A raisin is a good center decoration,
or a few currants can be used in
stead.
For the hostess who likes bit or
novelty, what is sometimes called
double biscuit" is an excellent adj
dition to the afternoon tea table.
After cutting the biscuit into thin
rounds, put half teaspoonful of Jam
or marmalade in the center of half
the number and cover with the re-
naming halves. Let the filling be
kept well in the center, so that in
baking it will not ooze out. Served
fresh from the oven, these are de"
licious little mouthfuls. A light
spreading of honey can be used in the
same way, or cream cheese, softened
sufficiently, offers another change.
The same biscuit dough- made soft
enough to come under the heading OF
a drop batter" can be used for the
filing of tiny patty pans and baked
as one would little cakes. These bis
cults, so baked, have a delicious guam
tity of crust, and their cunning size
always attracts attention from guests
who see them served for the first
time. Sets of these diminutive cake
tins can be found in various sizes,
the preferred style being arranged for
the baking of a cake or biscuit scarce
ly more than an inch in diameter.
The tins with f1uted edges are espe-
cially good for the making Of these
little biscuits.
With the same combination of in
gradients an appetizing bouchee is
easily possible. Make the biscuit OF
suitable size and so that when baked
it will be about an inch thick. With
a pair of scissors clip away bit OF
the top crust, and in the cavity place
dot of rich preserve. Leave uncov-
cred, so that the bit of colored filling
may show prettily A single pre-
served strawberry is the best for this
purpose. Not new, but always accept
able, are biscuits of this description.
with sufficient of the inside crumb re-
moved to allow of teaspoonful OF
richly dressed chicken or lobster
salad A faxed sardine filling is also
good, with just squeeze of lemon
| juice to each portion.

LATE IDEAS IN MILLINERY
Prevailing Styles Really Show Little
New, Though There Have Been
Few Changes Made.

Naturally. at this date very little
that can be rightfully termed new is
in evidence, says the Dry Goods Econ
omist. The most pronounced change
is the return of maline hats to strong
favor.
Drapes of maline over hemp are
especially favored; but brim extern
sion. ruffes and huge wired bows of
maline are also being offered.
Hats of Chantilly lace are being
oil ominently featured Some of the
most striking of these have the lace
fitted so smoothly and firmly over
wire foundation as to present almost
a tailored appearance.
The popularity of quilts continues
unabated. They are used either alone
or in combination with wheat, flowers,
ribbon or feathers. Among the smart
est models now shown are white
henps trimmed with white quilts and
white wheat. with white MORE RIB

LIKE THE SEPARATE COLLAR
No Accessory of the Season Has Been
Received With More Genuine
Appreciation.

An accessory which can be adopted
with greater confidence is the separate
white collar to be worn with the coat
A few years ago girls and younger
women wore embroidered white col
lars over their coat lapels, but the
present renaissance of the fashion is
in a different form. The collars now
worn are much more attractive and
elaborate. They come in all the modi-
locations of the square or rounded cut
and very often end in the long ruffle
or plating which is so great fad
Just now Others are in the shape OF
a modified fchu. They are both be-
coming and practical, as they protect
the waist underneath. Especially with
a collarless blouse-that is to say, an
open-necked one-they are almost nee
essary. Otherwise the hard line or
the coat is very trying, both in ap-
pearance and in feeling.
