FOR PHOTOGRAPHS.

This is the season Of the year when the
average home-maker finds her mantels,
secretaries, chiffoniers and tables over
flowing with photographs, and she yearns
for the old-fashioned album which some
two or three years ago she turned over
to moths and mice in attic recesses.
Perhaps, in a sudden spasm of tidi-
ness, she decides to unearth the family
photograph album and. refill its empty
spaces or she may even think she will
find something new in albums.
But the good old-fashioned album.
bound in desirable quality of leather, is
not to be found in department store nor
bookshop. In its place has come the
box. or rather many boxes, supplemented
by pliable leather receptacles resembling
glove and handkerchief cases, and for

NEW YORK. June 16.-There was
time when women thought any clothes
would do for trip to Europe. What
ever was old and somewhat threadbare
in the wardrobe was brought out or
saved through the spring for the trip
abroad
Some care was taken about the one
good gown to wear at hotels or the
theater, but little money was spent on
it. One thought that such money should
be spent in Paris, the sartorial mecca
of the world. The choice of shoes was
governed by the same opinion.
How things have changed. The new
steamers have done this. Old clothes
were worn when one expected to remain
half the time in the stateroom too sick
to move and far too negligent to dress.
The idea of wearing evening gowns to
dinner did not enter the minds of the
large majority who crossed the ocean,
and such frailties as white linen suits.
white shoes. attractive hats. gloves and
habitues.
The floating hotels have made as vast
a difference in dressing on the sea as
motors have made in land clothes. True,
there are thousands who are not booked
for the largest boats. but steamer life

chatting and scalds.
The best treatment for a sprain is hot
water. 1t relieves the soreness and re-
duces the Inflammation. Absolute rest is
necessary. After the hot water bathing
the injured part should be bandaged and
kept damp with witch hazel or tincture of
arnica.
For mosquito bites or stings from wasps

Since insects dislike the smell of cam

clothing before going into the woods will
keep them away.
For poison ivy battle with a strong So
luton of baking soda. Zinc ointment is
good to follow up with. but If not at hand
vaseline will answer.
In the case of Il slight stunning caused
by blow or fab, the patient should lie
down and have wet cloths applied to the
head.
Usually these simple remedies will re-
store a normal condition. but. as I said
before. get a physicians advice if the
case seems to be serious.

white chiffon ruffling, and a crushed
girdle of black satin drew the fullness
of the blouse in at the waist line and
was caught up under the bust in front
and tied in a fat bow, the space just
below, being filled in with a section of
embroidered taffeta.

Simple Remedies.

1t is we'll to be prepared for minor ac-
cidents when away upon vacations One
is apt to get a knock or a fall, and cuts
scratches, bruises and bites from insects
or poison from plants during summer
vacation.
Of course. if a physician is at hand it is
always best to enlist his services, but
there are many simple home remedies
that will cure slight complaints If intel
ligently applied.
Very often there will be a little stomach
disorder due to change of diet or per-
haps from eating unripe berries. so one
should take along a bottle of tincture of
peppermint. or. if this is dislked, tine
ture of ginger. Twenty drops of pepper
mint taken on sugar or forty drops OF
ginger in sweetened water, will relieve
collie.
Tincture of arnica is used in case of
bruises, cuts, or wounds. A rag wet with
it should be applied around the injured
spot. Witch hazel is also helpful and
will be found cooling and soothing.
Spirits of camphor is very handy. both
for internal and external use. To inhale
it is refreshing, and few drops on sugar
will expel gas in the bowels. Bicarbo-

has altered because of the tremendous
improvements IN marine transportation.
Travellers have seen what can be done
to make them comfortable, and, realizing
the comfort that can be had in a hotel
for the same amount of money, they de-
mand much even on small boats; and
to keep up their share of travel the
boats that are far from giants must keep
pace with the times.
The Choice of a Coat Suit.
The first question that each woman
must answer concerns the coat suit
This is rightfully the most important
costume to get out of the way. 1t should
not be heavy, unless one is to remain in
the north of Europe, and even then one
had better depend on a topcoat for
warmth, because even in Scotland and
Norway there are hot days. The English
summers are warm and humid and Paris
is hot.
The sketch today shows an admirable
costume for the boat as well as all trav-
cling. 1t is of the thinnest serge made
with a lower skirt of knife-pleated silk.
The blouse is of white muslin and blue
silk mixed and is separate from the skirt,
so any kind of shirt waist can be substi-
tuted. The jacket is short. therefore
cool, and the fashionable long waist line
is suggested by the wide velvet ribbon
that runs through the boxpleats of the
skirt.
The Hat and Shoes.
Those half shoes which have biscuit
colored uppers and polished leather low
ers are SO popular that they seem to
serve as footgear for most of the smartly
ressed women who are travelling. Their
shape makes the foot look smaller, and
the touch of color is often carried out in
the hat or blouse
The first requisite of hat is that it
remains on the head without undue coax
ing And it must be sufficiently soft
and fiat at the back of the head not to
Interfere with ones comfort when sitting
in the deckchair. The preference has
been given to white felt with touch of
black trimming.
There is a lightweight cape that goes
with this costume which provides enough
warmth for the midsummer journey.
When one nears England a heavier coat
is usually needed and one then goes for
the sport coat that has come aboard with
the steamer rug and other strapped par
aphernalia.

DRESSING THE HAND.

Among the numerous small items which
make up the sum total of good or bad
effect so far as matters of dress are con-
cerned, there is one in particular that
many women entirely overlook--that is,
the style" of their hands.
There is something very definite about
the hand 1t is so full of personality. so
closely connected with the individual
characteristics of its owner that those
who are wise will realize it requires set
ting off to advantage just as much as the
face and figure, and therefore its special
attributes must be studied and the sleeves
and cuffs worn made to harmonize.
Long. slender hands look their best set
off with dainty white ruffles or falling
chiffon frills, while hands that are square
ly made and of a workmanlike and capa-
BILE appearance look out of place amid
soft lace, and the plain sleeve and turn
back cuff suit them far better.
There are people who should never on
any account wear short or three-quarter-
length sleeves and yet how often one
notices the entire effect Of gown spoiled
by carelessness in this respect.
Some people, again. suffer from bad cir
culation, resulting in red and unsightly
hands-a defect that is very hard to cure
and this redness is emphasized by white
rufies and cuffs, but will not appear to
nearly such a disadvantage If back or
dark frills are worn.
Hands are always an interesting study,
and il is pity that in these busy days
they are not often accorded the care and
attention bestowed on them when our
grandmothers We're young, and white and
shapely hands were considered a. very i'm
portant part of a womans beauty.
Though manicure and constant massage
and such like take up more time than the
| average woman can daily indulge in. she
can always see that her hands are suit
ably becuffed, detail the Importance OF
which, once studied. she will quickly
realize.

The silks themselves are so beauti-

While the government has not these
