The midsummer fashions seem to be

silk coats. Hitherto the figured models
have been confined largely to the picture
fabrics, but coats of Dresden silk for
plain skirts are popular and extremely
smart looking.

inch-wide silk will make this dressy

Dressing the Hair.

There are some women VINO remain true
TO the parting in the middle of the hair,
but the many prefer the parting on the
side. The forehead is entirely covered as
are the ears and there is no bulge any
where over the surface Of the head. The
flatter. the better. This is the fashion.
Every individual must modify it to suit
her head and her face. for it is inartistic
and foolish to follow any fashion without
regard to your personal appearance.
If a parting Is not becoming, then omit
II and draw the hair softly back. If ones
ewes are at their worst with the hair
brought down to the eyebrows, then it
must be lifted.
The main mistake that nearly every
woman makes in arranging her hair ac-
cording to the new fashion IS in run
ming it down in a bias line from the
middle of the forhead to the lobe Of the
ear 1t was this line on each side of the
temples that contributed to the hideous-
ness Of the 1865 couture
Women who take the time and trouble
to study their faces never use this line.
You will notice that they make it as
regular as though it were carelessiy seal
loped across the brow and temples. They
give it an inward curve at the end of
each eyebrow and then bring II out in
front of each ear.
This line is as old as art itself and can
be seen on any Of the famous pictures
and statuary. 1t is not Grecian in its
strictest sense. but 1t Is classic. or
course, the outward swerve In front of
women and an eccentric effect is pro-

The Ever-Ripe Tomato.

The tomato is the ever-present help of
the housewife who must plan varied
menus. Probably there is no vegetable,
save only the potato. which so well adapts
itself to many recipes. In these days
when dollhouse tomatoes are hardly more
expensive than garden tomatoes, fresh
tomatoes can be had all the year; and
when, for some reason, fresh tomatoes
are not at hand, canned tomatoes can in
many cases be made to answer the same
purpose.
