How to Pack
Test of Well Filled Trunk
Is Safety. of Break
able Objects.

lTHE test Of good packing should
4 be the safe arrival of break
able objects and the decent
condition Of articles Of clothing. To
cram clothing into trunk in such
disorder that every garment needs
the services of tailor or laun-
dress on reaching its destination is
not good packing.
Although the actual packing OF a
trunk may be done in less than an
hours time, if you know how, 1t is
well to start packing some days
before the date of the journey, it
possible. This gives time to include
many little things which add to the
comfort and pleasure which are
lard to think of in a hurry. With
tie trunk at hand many articles can
be laid in it as they are thought OF.
Flat Spreading Space Saving.
Underwear should be spread as
fat as possible on the bottom OF the
trunk. This spreading out of every
thing is the secret of getting great
deal in a small space, by preventing
a lot of small cracks of space which
would 60 to waste.
In a large trunk it pays to supple
ment your trays with one or more
large pieces of pasteboard. Lay one
on top of the underwear. If any gar
mcnt is needed before you have I'M
packed, it can be easily and quickly
found without mussing everything
above it if you raise the upper layers
on the pasteboard.
Wash dresses should follow I'M
derwear. After these, or even be-
fore them, place the tailor suit ana
such other articles Of extra warm
clothing as can best stand possible
creasine; coming on up from worst
70 second best clothes, saving al
WAYS the best clothes and any I'M
ery for the dress trays or, in lieu OF
them, a fat box, in which they should
be packed with lavish use OF tissue

well as in the folds Of the skirts.

Organdie Blouses
Most Popular Just Now Are
They with Raglan Cut
Shoulders.

THE organdie blouse is the
\ blouse of the moment. 1t IS
worn by every one every
where. One seen to-day was very
simple, but had good lines. 1t was
cut in raglan style, with short
sleeves and turn-back cuffs of the
organize, piped with pale pink ba-
tiste. The "Paquin" collar OF or
candle piped with pink batiste, and
revers of the same piped with the
batiste, was the sole elaboration,
and a narrow tie of the pink batissc
completed the waist, which may be
had in varied pipings. Price, SIS.
Again the Raglan Shoulder.
A charming waist OF maize color
crepe de Chine is made with raglan
shoulders and three-quarter sleeves
trimmed with net cuffs. The fiat
collar is of the material, while the
vestee of net is fastened with white
covered buttons, so giving a con-
trasting effect. The striking feature
of this blouse is the revers OF the
material. which have two buttons OIL
the right with novelty buttons on the
other side. Although never but
toned, they give a pretty effect to
the waist. This blouse may be OBJ
aimed in all colors for %.
Georgette Crepe Good For Blouses.
Georgette crepe is one Of the most
popular materials for blouses this
season-and with reason-as it has
the cool, soft appearance OF chiffon
and yet it washes beautifully and
wears we'll. Sketched on this page
is a waist OF this material. 1t is
made with dropping shoulders and
turn-back cuffs of white MORE and
Venetian lace trimmed with small
MORE buttons. Unusual is the band
of white MORE, which stands upright
at the neck, finished with Venetian
lace, which trims the front OF the
waist along with thirteen MORE but
tons.
Instead of having the usual band
this waist has a waistcoat OF the
MORE which adds greatly to its
smartness. Such model would be
suitable for an informal luncheon,
and may be had IN white or flesh
color for Sls so.
White Batiste Sports Blouse.
A blouse that would be particular
ly good for sporting wear is shown

TINE wise and hospitable hostess
will see to it that some cool,
refreshing beverage, of SIM
pie or intricate mixing, is always
ready for impromptu use for the un-
expected arrival or informal gather
ing on the lawn or veranda.
There are whole assortment of
tempting drinks which have been
experimental with by woman who
has travelled the world over and has
brought recipes from foreign lands,
as we'll as from our own South.
An Inspiring Sherry Flip.
Her directions for a sherry flip
are quite worth while. Beat up one
egg thoroughly with tablespoonful
of sugar; pour on this wineglass OF
sherry and mix again. Fill up the
glass with shaved ice and milk ard
shake well in a shaker. Strain into
. champagne glass and CRATE little
nutmeg over the top.
Nothing is more appetizing than
iced tea, or tea punch, as some call
it. For plain iced tea put a table
spoonful of Ceylon tea in large
pitcher and pour over it quart of
boiling water. Cover with a folded
napkin and let stand for good ten
minutes. Strain and add sugar,
about one pound. The juice of lem
ons or mint juice may be added. 4
A Tea Punch.
To brew what is called tea pinch
the juice Of six lemons and two or
anges is added, this being served
with ice and Apollinaris.
Iced Coffee with Whipped Cream.
Many hostesses have iced coffee
ready to serve during the warm
days. This is nothing more than a
strong, cold, black coffee sweetened
and placed in wine-cooler, with
plenty of crushed ice about it. This
should be served in tall slender.

its little bag; if you are not provided
with regular shoe bags use paper
bags or pieces OF soft wrapping
paper.
Needed bottles of medicine, ink. or
toilet water should be carried in the
hand baggage whenever possible. II
necessary TO carry bottles in trunk,
the plan l have found best is to
pack my bottles in the middle of the
tray. If there is a hatbox at one
end OF the tray, pack against the
side of that. .Fasten corks securely,
wrap about with tissue paper and
stand bottles either Ain a rubber
shoe or on your hot water bottle.
Pack them solidly, SO that no
amount of slamming about OF your
trunk can upset them, and have so
much soft tissue paper about them
tina, if they should be broken the
fluid would be soaked up by paper
or soft underwear and have no
chance to damage anything else.
Plenty of paper and solid packing
are the points to secure success

terials. / keep an outfit only used

thin glasses, with a tablespoonful OF
whipped cream on top.
The Mint Julep Fayorite.
For a warm weather drink, espe-
cially for serving in the afternoon
or evening, the mint Julep holds
high favor. A good old Kentucky
recipe is the following
Put one-half teaspoonful of or
ange bitters in a glass with several
tender mint leaves. Crush the mint
well in the bitters and to the mix
ture add one sherry glass of rye
whiskey. Fill the glass with shaved
ice and put on the top thin slice
Of orange and spray of the mint,
frosted in white sugar.
An Unusual Drink, the Cider Cup.
Cider cup, though not commonly
served summer drink, is the special
ty of certain hostess who has
gained quite a reputation. A layer
of finely pounded ice is put into the
bottom of a large glass pitcher.
Then mix together one quart OF
cider. two wineglasses OF sherry and
one of brandy. Sweeten to taste
and pour over the ice. Add the
thinly cut rind OF two lemons. one
sliced orange and one-half of a
crisp cucumber, shaved thin. Let
the ice melt little, then add a glass
of Curacao and CRATE a little nutmeg
on the top before serving.
Pineapple Lemonade.
Pine apple lemonade is a change
from the conventional drink. First
pare a large, fresh pineapple, take
out the eyes and shred it into bowl
and squeeze over it the juice OF
three lemons. Boil pound OF sugar
in pint of water, removing the
scum as it rises; pour this syrup
over the fruit and let stand for two
hours. When ready 20 use put big
cube of ice into the punchbowl,
strain the mixture over it and add a
quart of charged water.
The "Ingenue" Sherbet.
A sherbet, which sounds bit in
tricate, though it is we'll worth the
trouble, has been called "Ingenue"
by its originator. To a pint OF
strawberries or currant syrup, add
the juice of FIVE oranges, three lem
ons and a can of grated pineapple.
This is to be sweetened to taste,
, adding cold water to get the proper
consistency and strength. This,
with some ice, is to be turned into a
punchbowl. Any pretty garnish,
strawberries, small punches of red
currants or marischino cherries can
be used.
"Graniti"-A Banana Mixture.
From Italy comes recipe for
graniti, which calls for six ripe
bananas pounded into a pulp and
mixed with four ounces of sugar,
the Juice of two lemons, one pint OF
water, a wineglass of rum and equal
amount of maraschino syrup. This
should be we'll frozen and served in
crystal cups.

on my travels, so it is always ready.
Neckwear, handkcrchiefs, belts,
gloves and all furbeiows should be
put in one or more boxes suited to
space you can spare for them in the
tray-the boxes being useful in your
bureau during your stay. A folding
hatbox will save going into the
trunk for small articles on many &C.
casions. When your trunk is packed
do not fail to tack on the top card
with your name and destination
plainly written. Many lost trunk
would never have strayed if this lit
tie precaution. had been taken. If
your journey is an intricate one, it
may be well to add via" the best
