LAST TOUCH FOR BUNGALOW
Selection Of Appropriate Furnishings
to Be In Keeping With Surround
lngs Important.

The finishing touch of beauty about
bungalow or summer home of any
sort is the artistic. Summery-looking
furniture which Is found not only
within doors but on porch and lawn.
In selecting such furniture it will be
found that nothing is more pretty and
fitting than the Canton furniture
which is imported directly from the
Orient. It is made of bamboo and
wistaria vine and its special recon-
mendation is that exposure to burning
sunshine or drenching summer show
ers hurts it not a whit. The chairs
are of such odd and interesting shapes
that they make extremely picturesque
furnishings. Added to that their
bases are of the so-called "hour-glass"
shape so that there are no sharp legs
to make unsightly digs in the lawn.
The tea-tables. tabouretts and maya
zine racks of this Oriental make are
particularly good-looking.
The incest sort of rug to use with
these bamboo furnishings is the ono
of Chinese grass. 1t is also sun-proof
and shower-proof and is SO loosely
woven that 1t dries very readily-a de-
cidedly good feature for a porch rug
to possess.

SHOWS SOME NOVEL IDEAS
Handkerchief for This Season Are
Dainty, and Many Original De-
signs Arc Seen.

All Is astir In the handkerchief mar
ket. New samples are being received,
lines for roadmen arranged and plans
completed for the coming season. Al
usual, absolute novel ideas are few and
far between, but the desired element
of novelty is found in new and clever
interpretations Of old motifs.
The one corner idea continues to
hold the center of attraction. The
features of this seasons productions
are daintiness Of the designs and their
careful arrangement 80 as to extend
up into the body Of the handkerchief
instead of spreading out at each side.
as In former seasons.
One-sided designs are again in evil
dence, and will find favor by adding
the spice of variety.
The Longfellow initial won such
widespread favor last season that its
position in this seasons lines is prao-
tically secure. Many new Lonfellow
designs are shown surrounded BY
elaborate decorations, but the simpler.
daintier effects will have first place In
popular esteem.
The oriental initials which made
their appearance last spring are again
featured, and as the oriental influence
is pronounced in women's wear they
should find even greater favor than
ever before.
The usual big movement in simple
initial handkerchiefs, both script and
blocked, is expected. The dainty un-
decorated letters are indicated for a
slight preference over the decorated
ones. Among the daintiest initiated
numbers are those finished with tiny
Armenian lace edge.-Dry Goods Eco

any In the country. Just where this
feeling arises Is hard to discover. The
crowd Is violent in temper when the

In Boston and Philadelphia, on both
major league parks, the home players
and visitors are almost upon equal
terms, and the spectators applaud
good plays irrespective of the players.
They see baseball under the best con-
ditions, with both teams encouraged
and giving their best efforts to the
