the question of the table decorations
Is started.
The silver is sent away to be cared
for during the summer, and glass or
china takes its place wherever 1t is pos
sible. The effect of the table with It's
glass candlesticks, its glass compotes
and vases and everything else in glass,
not Just mere ordinary glass, but the
most expensive OF rock crystal II Dos
sible-is certainly charming.
Fine white china is also used and a
fascinating table can be had with every
thing white and the decorations spring
flowers or green leaves. Another pretty
novelty is the colored glass-this of the
most expensive quality. however, and
with wonderful shadings. A table that
took the prize not long ago at an ex-
hibition was set with the palest of green
glass with centre bowl and side vases
filled with wallfowers of yellow and
purple. Naturally wallfowers and
sprlngtime are not synonymous, but
the same glass with decorations Of
spring flowers Is Just as attractive. while
II expense Is no object purple orchids
are all that could be desired. These
decorations can be just as costly or as
inexpensive as desired. Fashion has
for once provided for the poor as well
as the rich. and there are no end Of
charming table decorations to be found
at low prices
The heavy damask OF the winter can
now be put away and an entirely dIf-
ferent style of table linen used. The
centre cloth with round doylIes to
match or az is preferred at the moment
the square OF heavy linen with square
doylies, is more fashionable than table
cloth.

that she has been taking the leading
parts in Gabrielle dAnnunzio's plays for
the last two or three seasons. She has
In fact taken her place among serious

good deal Of criticism on her head.
! The Parisians have said. with no I'M
certain voice, that she spoke French
with strong Russian accent and that
though she posed exquistely she was a
poor actress.
Now. however. she has decided to ap-

the famous Italian poet, who is at pres
ent in Paris, but these questions have
remained unanswered. DAnnunzlo

with an engaging smile.
Some of the new evening gowns re-
call very strongly the Merveilleuse out
line. These gowns are surprisingly short
and skinny. They show the whole of
the feet and a good deal of the lower
limbs. They are not slit or slashed
they are simply very short and skinny

ASPARAGUS IN NEW WAYS.

n IEW ways OF serving asparagus are
" always welcome. Most Of the
novelties devised by restaurant
chefs are quite possible for the home
caterer.
For instance, plain boiled asparagus
on toast was made to have a very Diff
ferent appearance at recent private
dinner served at restaurant by having
the slices of toast cut in oblongs ex-
actly corresponding in length to the Sc
lected stalks. The bread for this toast
was cut from the length Of the loaf
rather than from side to side. Seven or
eight stalks Of boiled asparagus were
then slipped through ring stamped out

One Color Dress Scheme for Summer

I is good plan to adopt a one color
scheme for the summer wardrobe
and to vary II only with different
shades of the same color. White Is OF
course the thing for warm weather and
1t can be combined effectively with al
most any color. 1t Is worth while to
make study OF colors and find Just
what shade is most becoming and then
stick to II.
III rose or pink Is the choice il can be
used in many pretty ways. With the
white outing skirts OF linen or pique it
can appear in sheer blouses of rose or
pink handkerchief linen or in the COL
lar, cuffs and pipings on the white
blouse.
A rose sweater of soft wool and q
pink dainty sweater would be useful
and effective. Even the shaded Jersey
silk hat bands for the Panama hat are
TO be had in the right colors. Pink
lawns or linens or white taffeta with
pink stripes or rose dots may be used
Tor afternoon wear, while evening
gowns of pink tulle or of fiounced white
net with girdle OF pink or rose frnged
taffeta will carry out the color scheme.
For lining the filmy white evening
wrap or the heavier semi-dress white
coat pink and rose are charming. For
negligees nothing is more becoming and
dainty than pink. In the underbrlm OF
hats, in parasols and in sash ribbons
pink is effective. And the girl who
chooses pink and rose for her summer
combination can have hats that are
visions of loneliness; rosebuds, ribbons
and lace combine with creamy straws
charmngly.
Some girls affect the colored stock
ings to match the belt. The girl who
never overlooks little details will have
her handkerchief bordersd to match
other accessories.

Representatives of South American

The attitude to be assumed by the
American republics toward this action
is expected to be considered by the

of Secretary Bryan and eight other
members of the governing board of
