Smart Costume.

One Of the smartest costumes for
young women, exhibited on a living
model at recent opening, was of
very pale tan worsted and mohair
mixture, made with short, fare skirt,
revealing the new slim black leather
pump, guiltless of buckle or bow, and
stockings of natural silk. A little
coat, bUttoning high to the throat, was
surmounted by very tall choker COL
lar of white organdie with points
reaching up over the cheeks and
broad stock of black satin holding it
in place. The coat had belt and a
plated coattail at the back. This
spring costume was completed by
tiny black satin hat with slashed
sailor and brim and a floating veil
of black mesh with an allover vine
pattern.

SOME TIMELY HINTS

Water the sweet peas lavishly about
the roots and be generous with the
blooms. Allow no seed pods If you
want flowers.
Cut everlasting and grasses as soon
as the flowers are fully opened. tie in
punches, hang head down, and dry in
the shade, for winter bouquets.
Fasten dahlias, and other brittle
stalked tall growers to some support,
to protect from storms of wind
Fine well-rotted manure is a good
mulch for tea roses. Prune by cutting
the blossoms lavishly with long stems,
in order to induce vigorous blooming
branches.

coatee was manly" Is not military.
There were useful poekets at the sides
and a smart belt, fastened with
handsome buckle, to indicate the
waist.
The coat was buttoned straight down
the front and it opened, slightly, over

chief linen. These coats are made in
all sorts of rich, rather dark, colors,
such as car violet, japonica pink,

Chinese blue, etc. At the seaside they

This Idea was launched by Cheruit
and it has caught on" in an extraor-

binary" with intention because it can
not be claimed that dark linen or dark
muslin is fiattering to the complexion

Still these dark linens and muslins
are immensely fashionable, and so, for
the moment, 1t is useless to object to
them.

White Woodwork

Use whiting and water and a soft
cloth. This does not destroy the paint
as a more vigorous cleanser does.
But if there are outside white win
dow stills to be cleaned, and they are
very much spled by exposure to the
weather, use ammonia and water. Be
careful in 4sing it, as it removes some
of the paint as well as the dirt.
