- Model 1890 combines three of the
style features. any one of which will
stamp the newness of a gown OF to-
day. 1t has the peg-top skirt, with
the upper fullness folded in double
box plait in the front and also in the
middle back The graduated plated
itunic is of chiffon, matching the soft
Ibrocaded crepe de Chine in rich Pc
rtunia shade. Then the girdle adds It's
ltullness at the waist line, dropping on
either hip to follow the contour of the
tunic. This Is one of the many little
points which you will notice in the lat
est model gowns. Such tricks, as 1t were,

Kitchen Scissors.

Scissors will cut some foods bet
ter than a knife. Grape fruit and
oranges can be easily prepared for
serving in the skins by cutting the
pulp close to the rind and also cutting
out the tough fibres around the seeds.
A pair OF large size manicure scissors
with curved blades follow the curve
of the round fruits. Other scissors
are practical for cutting some fancy
shapes in fruits or vegetables for dec
Grafton. Green peppers, for instance,
can be shredded with straight scis-
sors or cut into leaves like holly, with
red peppers for holly berries.

Panel Curtain DeOice.

How not to muss panel lace sash
curtains when the windows OF sleep
ing rooms are opened at night has
been a problem of many particular
housewives. About halfway up the
lower half of the curtain sew a small
dress hook on either edge Of the
curtain and one in the middle,
IL there is heavy lace or strong ma
terial at that point. Beside the small
ring screwed into the wood rod OF the
window shade for the pull cord screw
a SIMILAR ring into each end Of the rod,
where it will not be noticed. Catch
the dress hooks into the three corre-
spending rings on the window shade
and roll the latter up as high as It Is
desired to have the window open. The
screw rings can be put into the win

Finely plated chiffon forms the front

corresponds with the Medici collar In
the neck. The high collar Is still ta-

The skirt Of this dress. No. SO49, is
cut in three pieces and has a two
piece tunic, with the interesting Jabot
draping at the left side. A striking
effect is had in the contrast Of the
lining of the jabot, when one cares to
introduce decided color effects. The

chiffon blouse and the bolero facing OF
velvet matching the satin.

their lives, but. the paper adds, "even
the stories of hostile passengers show
that the captain of the submarine kept
strictly within the rules of inter-
national law"
"All these were observed" continues
the Neue Freie Presse, leaving no
occasion for special diplomatic action
in this case. President Wilson has no
justification for such repetition of
the Lusitania note exchange with Ger
many. Probably this demonstrative
proceeding is not unconnected with
American internal political consid-
erations. Mr.. Wilson. as a candidate
again for the presidency, desires to Sc
cure supporters for his campaign"
