are found In every material from %

Canton crapes In tiny flower designs.

old favorite, dotted swiss and polka

for dainty little frocks, Of which every
one needs two or three, whether one
remains at home or goes away for the
hot season. The sensible woman who
must consider the laundry selects one
that viii not soil easily, a well covered
design or else plain white. She relies
on what VIII always give her a fresh
looking frock, not too elaborate, one
that does not need to be Numbered
more than once.
Some women always send their wash
dresses to a cleaner for the first laun-
dering In order to set the colors and
keep the shape Of the skirt, but any of
the materials should stand the home
Tubing If the dress Is first dipped In
salted water and not hung In the sun

and gathers and pufings to her hearts

Lady Doyle, whose husband, Sir Ar
thur Conan Doyle, is a literary expert
on crimes and criminals. cOncurs with
him in his idea about Sing Sing. The
following Is what that noted author
said after a five minute voluntary In
generation In one Of the cells OF the
prison:
1T ought to be burned down." he
exclaimed Indignantly. The buildings
are absolutely antiquated, and it is
nothing less than a disgrace for a state
30 great and wealthy as New York to
have e prison which is hundred years
behind the times.
Il am a medical man, and naturally
/ was interested in the sanitary condi-
lions and the way the buildings were
constructed, and l saw enough. No,
have never read or even heard Of any
Of the reports ON conditions in Sing
Sing which may have been issued
didn't need any reports; / saw the
place.
Il don't wish TO pose as an authority
on English prisons" the novelist went
on, but doubt If we have any as In
sanitary as Sing Sing. except perhaps
IN very remote districts Certainly
there are none in London or the larger
cities.
The cells ought to be knocked three
or four into one. As to the types Of
prisoners whom saw there, should
say that It struck me that the great
mistake OF the penal laws is in their
failure to allow freer scope for treat
ment OF the individual
But is there such a thing as an
American criminalY' he asked There
IN Sing Sing saw great numbers Of
men evidently Of foreign birth. Your
criminals are like your hfe-cosmopol-
ttan.
In all Of these opinions Lady Doyle
echoes her distinguished husband
Sir Conan Doyle married Miss Jean
Leckie Sept Is, 1907. She Is his sec
ond wife, and gives her husband much
sympathy and inspiration In his pro-
fession Of story writing. DR.. Doyle has
given up entirely the practice Of medi-
