may occasionally be placed two, or even
several. pictures, provided they be Of

alike. They should be hung upon the

Ribbon and Lace Alternate.

At first glance one scarcely knows
what shade TO term the yelled portion
Of the costume. And that is not the
least Of its charms. The filmy scarf
is actually part Of the gown, because
one end is attached to the skirt. The
scarf always comes into more or less
prominence toward summers close, and
this season is responsible for some al
Turing and mysterious color effects.
Pleatings of ribbon and ruffles Of
lace combine to create a corkscrew ef-
feet in evening gowns. A model which
is just q bit extreme. albeit altogether
charming, is in coral satin and white
lace. Its skirt, ideal for dancing be-
cause short and trlhe caught up az
the right side, is trimmed with two
wide lace rufllos. making sharp dag
onals from left of waistline and hips.
and scparated IS similarly placed

DO Not Repeat Material.

When choosing the materials for
serving on a canape care must be taken
that nothing used in this prelude TO
the meal shall be repeated in any OF
the following courses. For instance, ca
names of sardines, crab flakes, lobster
or shrimp are preferably served to in
troduce meal where fish does not
anpear in other form. In the same
way. If vegetable is served in canape
shape. that vegetable must not appear
in the way Of garnish or salad during
the remainder of the meal.

finely woven, lightweight blue serge
So high on the right hip does the up
permost founce start that il almost
collides with the waistband Of a close
ly gathered, scant skirt. Rather
abruptly the hounce descends az the
left side half way to the knees. Al
most opposite is a second founcc, which
in its sliding scale all but conceals the
skirts hem.
Beautifully simple is the bodice.
Gathered midway between shoulders
and throat to a heavv cordinS. its full!
back and front blouses all about the
waistline upon a coral picot-cdged blue
silk sash, oblonc draped to follow the
direction Of the skirts top ruflc. A.
plain rs the collarless neck Of the
peasant shirt-blouse are its long
sleeves. set 90. under cording, to low
dropped shoulders. But not an atom
Of contrasting color is upon il. The
ricot edge Of the sash is the sole re-
lief OF this very chic frock, pink skirt
and misty rose blue bodice.
CorkscreN gown creators have not
forgotten chutedo. They are using it
n a not inconsiderable extent. and one
designer has most happily combined il
with mousseline de sole in an after
noon costume of rose and cerulean
blue. The rose-hued chutedo IS fash
toned into a skirt the uppermost Of
whose three tiers, dropping diagorally
10 the right, starts at left of front, on
which side the second tier runs all the
way up 10 the waistline. The effect is
Of long width OF the corrugated
zhccrod material wound thrice about
the lower portion of the figure.
The bodice, full-gathered across the
collarbones under a rose mousseline
frill, is yelled by a wide cerulean blue
scarf. This. crossing the shoulders,
hangs straight down the right front
The longer end, enwrapping the waist
ead left hip, loses itself under the
1.e falling edge Of the first corkscrew
ping on the skirt. Striking and odd
is the contrast between the frank pink
of the skirt and the misty tone Of its
bodice.

Two weddings Of interest to New

Of them is that Of Miss Jane Chester
Cunningham. daughter Of Mr.. and Mrs.
Seymour Cunningham, 20 Floyd l.. Van
derpoel, son Of Mrs. John A. Wander
poel, at Litchfeld. Conn. 1t will be a
small and quiet affair, with only rela-
tives and few intimate friends at the
ceremony.
The other bride Of to-day is Miss
Violet Johnson. daughter Of Captain
D. D. Johnson, L. S. A. and Mrs. John
son, to John Campbell Townsend, Of

rUCH thought and care should
MI be expended on the selection
of the correct model for the
young girl wearing corsets for the first
time. Too much stress cannot be laid
upon this point, for if she should com
mence wearing the wrong sort of corset
grave dangers may result, such as
curvature Of the spine, narrow
chest, etc.
A good corset designer devoted much
thought to this problem, and as re-
suit is displaying corset that meets
every need Of the young girl!
Sketched on this page is highly
recommended model. The material IS
batiste coutil, and the corset is cut
very low in the front and under the
arms: but, Of course, it may be cut
shorter or made higher if desired. 1t IS
very lightly built and has no undue
stiffness. containing only a very few
bones. which are all rliable.
Gives Freedom for Out-of-Door Sports.
The same corset is strongly recon-
mended for the girl who loves out-of-
door sports tennis, golf, basketball
and riding because 1t will allow the
free movement Of all her muscles. 1t
may be made TO order without fittings
by sending careful measurements.

The Opening Course
Canapes Are a Satisfactory
Substitute for Ordinary
AppetlZers.

NIHAT to serve as an opening
w course at summer dinner Is
often a problem for the host
css who is tired of clans, jellied boull-
lon or melon. Therefore, one Of the
popular appetizers, served in canape
form, will prove a satisfactory substl-
tute.
The adaptation 20 culinary purposes
Of the French word "canape,' meaning
a couch or resting place, has been in
ceniously explained by showing how
these minute bits Of fried, toasted or
plain bread serve as an actual resting
place, or 'canape," for small portions
of any delicacy.

MILITANT IN THE MAKING
Small Girl Has Begun Early to Resent
Restrictions Imposed Upon
Her by Her Sex. -

Children often voice the spirit or
their times in surprising manner. Lit
tie Elsie, for example, in the pertinent
questions her adult relatives found
so difficult of reply. Several times in
a single day the little girl had en-
countered the wall of conventionality
interdicting for her joys and liberties
easily granted her brother, and at last,
when told that nice little girls must
not play in the street after dark, even
upon special occasion such as Hal
lowe'en, she was tempted toward open
revolt.
Mother, who made things so much
harder for girls than boys7" she
asked, suddenly. Boys can do many
things girls can't and they have good
times, somehow. Who said it was to
be 500"
God, suppose" was mothers
dubious but determined answer.
Elsie considered the case in silence
for few moments then burst out i'm
pulsively:
well, wonder who'd call that
just?"

IF you are looking for a tasteful and
! brilliant gown, which will always
look well, the model shown in the pic
ture will hold your attention. The
combination of black and white is al
ways good, to begin with, and its lines
are conservative, following those of
the figure vaguely and simply. There
is nothing startling in the costume,
except it's beauty.
Nothing could be palmer than the
tunic of black chiffon. The placing of
the swansdown trimming is so obvious
that it might have been done by an
amateur, except that an amateur
would not have thought of terminating
II at the waist line, or of using a
black velvet girdle.
The under bodice Is an easy-fitting
blouse opening at the front over a sur
plice of fine white lace. The little
coat of black chiffon lies smoothly
over it, but develops a little fullness
below the waist line. The girdle Of
crushed velvet encircles the figure
easily at the normal waist line and
fastens at the left under a big velvet
rose in any color you like. The tur-
ban and slippers worn with this gown
