RETURN OF BONNET ANNOUNCED

Many seasons have come and gone
since Nine. La Mode gave to Womanl1ind
the charming little bonnets which lent
dignity and charm to the appearance of
the mothers, the grandmotheTs, yes, to
the little girls and misses OF the beautiful
long ago. All femininity in those days
wore bonnets, for no other headgear was
considered sufficiently prtm and precise
TO be appropriate to the thought of the
times.
Where memory does not reach back to
the days of the bonnet there are the
family portraits, the books and mags-
Eines OF the day showing the sweet, calm
face Of the mother, the laughing eyes OF
the schoolgirl and the wondering, inno-
cent face of the wee grille, all framed in
bonnets OF varying styles.
Whatever the shape might be, all head
gear for women was dignified by the
name of bonnet" Whether il was Of
silk, satin or lace, to be worn only to
church on Sunday or on other special oc-
casiCns. as a wedding or a sewing society;

Last Years Preserves.

With the shelves well filled with the
seasons jams, jellies, and preserves,
what to do with the leftover condi-
ments for last year is a problem that
ennfronts the housewife. They are far
too good to give away, for they repre-
sent much time and considerable ex-
pense. There are numberless dainties
that can be made. utilizing these Jams
ard jellies of last years make, and here
are few that should appeal to one and
all.
One of the simplest ways of using up
jams is to make a pie crust and line a
dozen individual cake tins with the pas
try, put in the oven and cook to a golden
brown. When this crust is cold fill the
individuals with jam, and add to each a
heaping tablespoonful of whipped cream.
or make a meringue and set in the oven
t. brown. This is a very popular French
dessert, and to the person who loves pas
try it is a great relief from the regula-
ton pie.
Another simple and pretty dessert is
made by putting a layer of Jelly or jam
in the bottom Of glass dish. over this
pour little boiled tapioca pudding. then
another layer of the jelly. Served from
a glass dish this is a very attractive des-
sert.

home from school with dinner pail in

ing was called "a bonnet"
Today we are told that bonnets are to
return, but this time they are TO be worn
only by matronly women. AS nothing
ever returns in the same form in which 1t
originally appeared, the bonnet Of the
new season. is to be so modernized that
IL one makes a mistake and calls II "a
small hat il will not display any surpris-
ing ignorance OF fashionable names.
Modern bonnets are said to be far more
becoming than any Of the styles of other
days, which is saying much, and those
who will welcome them the most gladly
are those who fashion has decreed may
wear them-those women whose memory
serves them sufficiently well to recall the
bonnets worn in childhood's days

Corselet Girdles.

Along with the revival of the moyen-
age STYLES comes the corset girdle, and
the designers have used it in many forms
to produce the long-waisted effects SO
much in vogue The new corselet girdle
resembles to a marked degree that worn
by the fair damsel when knighthood was
in flower
In the old paintings We find corselet
girdles richly jeweled or fashioned OF
brocaded silks or cloth of gold or silver,
and these are repeated as nearly as
possible in the corselet girdles Of today.
A gown of rich, dark green chiffon
velvet has a girdle Of the velvet richly
embroidered with gold threads and dull
red, green, and blue jewels. This broad
pirdle extends from the bust line to the
hips and closely follows the contour of
the figure.
A pretty dance frock, appropriate for
the debutante, is fashioned of pale pink
satin, and has a corselet girdle Of cloth
of-silyer, The material Is arranged In
folds about the figure, and the top and
bottom Of the girdle are ornamented
with silver roses and foliage Of the silver
cloth, appliqued to the frock
On a handsome dinner gown Of black
satin the corselet girdle is solidly beaded
in soft tones OF blue. red. green, black,
and gold, in a large flower design which
suggests the old tapestries.
Another evening costume Of black satin
has a corselet Of black sequins, which
are arranged to resemble a corselet Of
armor. This idea is further emphasized
by straps which pass over the shoulders.
Beneath the corselet is worn an under
bodice of black tulle
On dance frocks Of tulle. mousseline
de sole, taffeta. charmeuse, or chinon
appear corselet girdles Of satin or panne
velvet in one Of the pastel colors. They
come well over the hips. allowing the
skirts to fall in voluminous folds.
On frocks OF heavier worsted materials
the corselet girdIes are Of taffeta. moire
or satin.

Braiding an Important Feature.

Rheumatic Throat
Is Common Trouble
Should Be Treated in Blood
To Prevent Recurrence.

There are successful garges that stop
soreness IN the throat, but to prevent their
ineessant return, the blood must be put In
order. The best remedy Is s. s. s., as It
influences all the functions OF the body to
nentralize the irrltants or waste products
and TO stimulate their excretion through
the proper channels.
Rheumatic sore throat Is a dangerous
indication, as II means that the blood is
loaded With more uric acid than the kid
neys can exerete, ,and may thus lead to
serious general disturbance
The action Of s. s. s, stimulates cellular
activity. 1t prevents the accumulation of
irritants In local spots. Il enables the
arteries to supply quickly the new red
blood 10 replace worn-out tissue.
For this reason uric acid that finds the
throat an easy prey to its breaking-down
influence, is scattered and eliminated In
other words, s. s. s. prevents chronic con-
dltions hy enabling all the mucous Innings
OF the body to secrete healthy mueus. Its
influence is shown IN q marked improve
