A DAILY HINT TO

rose. and her manners attracted you at
once. But her hair was tumbled, her
waist mad two buttons off, her collar was
pinned on crooked. and she looked gen.

a windstor blowing about ninety miles
an hour.
She's dear in her way, went on

line
The sleeves are elbow length. made OF
two thicknesses of net in the two colors,
one slashed to show the other. Although
white is not much in favor this year un-
less il is used as background to some
brilliant color, there are numberless white
gowns. and the individual wearer adds
whatever color she chooses. This can al
ways be done with a fanciful scarf caught
to the shoulders and sometimes to the
wrists. and il can be done with a pam
nier of grdle.
The second method is quaint and has
therefore many followers among those
women who like to dress a bit out of the
ordinary. One % the most attractive
gowns for August vacation. which in
cludes afternoon affairs as well as infor-
NAL dinner parties. is OF white lace
founcing. The foundation skirt is coarse
white net. and under IL is worn a short
slim skirt of white messaine edged with
four inches nf lace. The iounces on tho
outer skirt are draped upward in tho
middle front and the pannier is of lem
yellow taffeta standing out slightly
from the figure and crushed by hand into
irregular and graceful folds.
The bodice is of white net and lace:
is high at the back and runs to low
In front, with filling of shirred white
tulle across the lower part. The girdle

feta and finishes at the back with
crushed Japanese bow. With this gown
is worn lemon-colored stock ings and vel

.PANNIERS OF LACE
NEW FASHION IDEA

. With the advent of lace into the field
of fashion as serious rival to other
soft fabrics il came about that the pam
nier could be developed in IL in rather
a fascinating fashion. Sometimes the
lace is mixed with net. "a, for instance.

can be used for all kicds OF social occa-
sions The skirt is ankle length, draped
up in the middle OF the frcn, and Gisap-

To Keep Young and Attractive
BY LILLIAN YOUNG.

1t may be only vanity that impels a
woman to carry a case of toilet requisites.
but it's vanity that has IFS virtue and
very particularly does ii become the sum-
mer girl. The day of the disheveled
beauty has waned. One may not have
every strand of hair in place. but one
must not appear to have made a hasty,
careless toilet nor must wind or weather
interfere very seriously. Hence the vanity
case TO the rescue.
After game OF tennis or golf or a
tramp through the woods row on the
river the summer girl does not now
make it a point to come I'm clustered and
tumbled Instead she quietly whips out
her little silver case and proceeds. with
what seclusion circumstances permit. to
make herself tidy. For that purpose
there is first of all tiny comb and brush
that close fiat together, the bristles being
pliable. so that they bend over under
the comb with touch of spring. then
hairpins-every woman knows the neces-
sity of having few extra hairpins and
pins-the powder box and the rouge stick,
and a wee bit of cold cream in case of
sunburn, or TO prevent it.
One may do we'll with these. but it re-
quires little additional room to add also
needle or two and black and white
thread and some dental floss. Most per-
sons now carry paper drinking cups con-
stantly, and until you have followed suit
YOU will have no idea how frequently
they Will prove convenient.
The little books of powder papers are
handy, but while many-perhaps the ma
jority of them-are harmless, somehow
the regulation form of powder case seems
more hygienic. and some of the cases are
hardly more bulky than the papers. In
fact, one of the newest of powder boxes
is wafer thin. like the fashionable
watches. yet 1t contains a puff and pow
der enough for two or three applications,
with mirror set inside the cover.
similar case contains cold cream and
lip rouge on one side and has a powder
puff on the other, while the whole is not
more bulky than a thin watch case.
If your face has a tendency to burn
then il may be advisable to have along
a cream that is specially intended to pro-
tect the skin from the effects of sun and
wind, such as a cucumber cream made

FEATS OF CHEMISTRY
OPPORTUNITIES FOR ACHIEVING
FAME OR FORTUNE OR BOTH.
Many Patents for Making Artificial
Rubber Have Been Issued, but
Price Still Remains the
Same.

II was announced q few weeks ago
that q distinguished chemist Of the
Imperial Technical School Of Moscow
had solved the problem Of making ar
tificial rubber, and that he could sell
the new product at about 10 I'd .
pound. according to Tit-Bits.
Yet, in spite Of this widely dissent
mated piece OF news. the price Of rub
Der remains pretty much the same.
The reason may be found by examin-
ing the patent Office records. During
the Hast ten or twelve years nearly 300
patents for artificial rubber have been
taken out.
Substitutes have been made from
petroleum, from coal tar. turpentine,
peat, from nitrated linseed oil, and by
treating cereals with phyalin.
The latter invention made a consid.
cradle sensation so long ago as 1906;
yet, judging by the constantly increas'
ing demand for the natural product, 1t
has had little effect upon the real rub
Der market.
The chemist, working in his labora-
tory can take any substance and
nnalyze it-that is. break It up into
lis original constituents and tell you
what they are. and how much Of each
element the substance in question 10
composed Of.
But when 1t comes to building up
the original substance out of its prime
constituents. there he is at sea. BY
dlnt Of long and patient experiments.
or perhaps by pure chance, he may
succeed in reproducing some few nat
ural products, but that IL as far 40
he can go.
Indigo dye took many years to syn
thesize. A German chemist accom-
plished 1t at last, but the curious dis
covery was made that, II blended with
the natural product made from the in
digo plant, the color produced was
both more durable and brighter than
that made by either dye alone. So
artificial indigo has not yet ruined the
indigo planter.

old time and most unfortunately been

Crime In Euxpt L. lner.asInr.

Crime in Egypt is on the increase.
The annual report of the judicial adj
wiser, published recently, is couched
in pessimistic terms. The Official, Sir
Malcolm McIlwraith. says that the
ever-ascending scale Of crimes 10 very
discouraging to the Judges and the
police concerned in the repression Of
offences. It certainly looks as II the
hygienic and up-to-date Egyptian
prisons had few terrors to the Grim
lnal classes. Since 1897 juvenile
crime has increased fourfold, and the
reformatories can no longer accom-
modate the number Of boys sent to
them, in consequence Of which they
have to be drafted into the prisons.
The growth Of crime is most notice
able in Cairo.
