BATHING T0GS

IT CAP that would make any wom-
"A an look well in the water is
one of the new rubber caps
trimmed with flowers. The cap is
the most practical sort imaginable,
for the flowers are of rubber. A col
ored cap Of rubber, with a rubber
frill about the face, and a deeper
rubber frilI to protect the neck from
the suns burning rays, shows a lit
tie bunch Of beautiful violets at one
side Of the head. A cap of deep red
rubber, made in the same fashion
as the violet one, is adorned with
bunch Of half open roses and the
shape and color of jacqueminot roses.
The startling bathing suits which
were described a few weeks ago con-
tinue to dazzle the eyes of shoppers.
Black or blue taffetas and satin are
most in demand however, although
the gayety which is not an undesr-
able feature of a beach color scheme
is not wanting even with these sober
tinted suits Dashing caps, bonnets,
girdles, hip sashes, stockings, and
shoes are accepted in plain colOrs, in
Scotch plaids. Roman stripes, Bulga-
rian and post-impressionist designs.

difference in the appearance OF wo-

when they get to the end of the jour

and the other is apparently as cool

effect is largely governed by the

a Canary Fad

PARIS, June 21.-If one is a wom-
an and wants to be in fashion she
must acquire one of those slender girl
figures which every once in a while
go out of style, but never stay out
long. French newspapers which make
feature of expoundlng styles and
fads of the fashionable rich to-day
dwelt at length upon the fashions seen
yesterday at the Chantilly race meet
Chantilly and Longchamps are style
barometers. The slim figure was in
its ascendency and among the other
things noted in ne great fashionable
parade were Diaphanous waists, small
hats, canes for women. golden shoe
buckles, anklets with watches set
thereon, embroidered skirts and Golf
fures more appropriate for grand
opera than outdoor gatherings. Two
women carried canaries in gold cages.

ENGLISH QUEEN
FAILS IN EFFORT
To GET BARGAIN
Tries to Buy ChippendaIe Chairs
of Duchess of Sutherland But
Finds Her Shrewd Merchant.
3peciaI Gable to The American.

5peciaI Gable to The American.
LONDON, June 21,-That Queens
and Duchesses are not above taking
delight in a good piece of business
was shown by a recent incident at
Stafford House.
Queen Mary invited herself to take
tea with the Duchess of Sutherland
there, principally with the object of
looking over the furniture and bric-a-
brac, which are to be sold, as Sir
William Lever has taken a lease OF
the historic mansion.
Queen Is Collector.
The Queen is an amateur collector
Of old English furniture and possesses
a nice collection of Chippendale.
While looking around she noticed two
Chippendale chairs, which she consid-
cred would make a handsome addi-
ton to her collection. Her Majesty
asked the Duchess the price. Her
Grace said the reserve was $50 pounds,
C$750,) and that her Majesty was well
come to them at that figure.
ooh! A hundred is as much as
want to spend said the Queen
q am sorry" said the Duchess. 81
can't go below the reserve"
Her Majesty dropped the subject
for a time and looked at other arti-
cles Just before her departure she
said to the Duchess: Il would like
to have those chairs. Can't you real
ly let me have them at a hundred?"
Refuses Chairs AS Gift.
Il am sorry, ma'am," replied the
Duchess. Il cannot sell below the re-
serve price. If your Majesty would
accept them as a gift"
"Oh, no l couldn't think of It." said
the Queen. We'll, if you can't sell
for less, I'll send you a check for
$50 pounds"
Thus two chairs were added to the
Queens collection of Chippendale.
The auctioneers, who are now re
moving all the furniture and other
objects from Stafford House for the
sale, consider that the Queen made
a good bargain.
