HCdndry 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
a feature of expounding styles and
fads of the fashionable rich to-day
dwelt at length upon the fashions seen
yesterday at the ChantIly race meet.
ChantiIly and Longchamps are style
barometers. The slim figure was in
its ascendency and among the other
things noted III ne great fashionable
parade were Diaphanous waists. small
hats, canes for women, golden shoe
buckles aUklets 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 Shrawd Merchant.


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
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,
($75O,) and that her Majesty was well
come to them at that figure.
oh! A hundred is as much as
want to spend" said the queen.
Il am sorry" said the Duchess. q
can't go below the reserve"
Her Majesty dropped the subject
for a time and looked at other arti-
Giles. Just before her departure she
said to the Duchess; q would like
to have those chars. Can't you real
ly let me have them at a hundred?"
Refuses Chairs As Gift.
4 am sorry, maam," replied the
Duchess. Il cannot sell below the re-
serve price. If your Majesty would
accept them as a gift"
ooh, no, l couldn't think of IT," said
the Queen. well, if you can't sell
for less, I'll send you 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.

BATHING T0GS

II CAP that would make any wom-
~ an look Wen 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
friH 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 a
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 undesir-
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.

There is art in the selection Of

People advancing in years should
be very careful Of their health during
the hot months, as heat has a very
enervating and weakening effect on them.
One has only to look at the daily list
Of fatalities to elderly people reported
by the papers to realize that these are
the hardest months for them to over
come.
The easily dIgested foods should be
eaten, and then only sparingly. and
alcoholic beverages and iced things
should be avoided as much as possible.
Exercise should be taken daily in the
shade. Most important Of all In the
maintenance of health and vigor at
this time is TO avoid constipation, with
its accompanying headaches and mus
cular and blood congestion. This is
accomplished by the timely use of
gentle laxative like d.. CaldwelPs
Syrup Pepsin. 1t Is the ideal laxa-
tive for elderly people, as it is mild,
tastes pleasant, and does not grippe.

DAIRY WORK IS DONE
THROUGH EDUCATION
Federal Division Has Not Fixed
Standards for Milk in Re-
gard to Bacteria in 1t.

The dairy division Of the Department
Of Agriculture has not fixed q standard
for milk, and has made no regulations
on archaeological count that can be
construed as a standard, according to q
statement from the department.
The dairy division. this statement
sets out. is cooperating with the
farmers Of the country to procure
better dairying methods and to improve
the quality and increase the quantity Of
milk shipped to consumers in the cities
and towns. This work. however. Is not
done through any policing power, and
can only be accomplished through sug-
geston and convincing the farmers Of
better methods.
Demonstrators from the bureau have
helped milk producers, who supply more
than 200 cities. In each city the demon
strators cooperate with local health
authorities, not only to help them pro-
cure evidence or bring prosecutions, but
to improve the local system of inspec-
ton whereby the inspectors can aid the
milk producers of the territory to bring
their milk up to the city's own standard
without being called upon 10 make ex-
The bureau supplies tubercuIin for
testing cows. The demonstrators
have no power to compel the farmer
TO accept or follow advice: they mere
ly try to show that the measures
suggested are for the farmers own
and a minimum of loss.
A simple count of bacteria is not
sufficient to determine the safety of
milk, the statement declares. The
nature of the bacteria, and whether
they breed disease, must be known
as well as the number. Consequently
there is no fixed standard of bac-
THEOLOGICAL count for the department.
