Ration that does not seem to change
it's character. Three popular shapes
selected from this seasons showing of
Panamas are illustrated here. They
are to be recommended as practical
and becoming and correct in type.
These hats are usually very simply
trimmed with bands of silk, ribbon or
linen Flat rosettes or hanging scarf
ends are favorite decorations, and not
to be improved upon. The wide
brimmed shapes are sometimes
| swathed with malines and finished
with huge bows of this fabric. 0cca-
sionally flowers or feathers adorn
them. But narrowbrimmed Panamas
are trimmed in the simplest name
possible.
The fine South American Panama,
IL well cared for, will stand many
seasons wear. These hats can be
cleaned and reblocked If one wishes
to change the shape. But it is better
to swathe the hat in a wide silk or chif-
fon scarf than to reblock 1t, and to
wear 1t in its original shape. A hat
SO fine, 50 shapely and sensible win
always look well.
1t seems a pity to wear out a hat
whose making involves such pains
taking and wonderful work, by using
a hat pin. In a fine hat It is better
to sew hat fasteners in the band and
secure 1t to the head in this way.

possible directly through food and wa

ter.
The amount OF iron needed appears
to be varied with different individu-
ais, depending on the nature Of their
work, diet and other conditions. Care
full experiments have shown that the
average man under normal conditions
requires about fifteen milligrams OF
iron per day. The average woman is
supposed to require about eight-tenths
as much food as a man and the same
proportion of iron will suffice. A child
that needs half as much food requires
the same proportion Of iron.
AS long as infants are drinking milk
they get only a small amount of iron,
but It Is interesting to know that a
certain amount has been stored In
their systems at birth to tide them
over until they get a diet which con-

For many generations the Panama
hat was woven in one shape, and 1t
took much urging and good manage
ment on the part Of those who bought
and imported the genuine South Amer
lean Panama hat to persuade the ma
tive makers to produce other shapes.
But finally this was accomplished and
now one may buy a Panama in almost
n shape. Not all the hats known by
this name are South American prod
ucts, (there are Panamas and Pana-
mas), but whether made in Japan or
Connecticut, or brought from Its ma
tive home, the Panama Is a beautiful
product.
It is and is likely to continue to be
the ideal hat for midsummer outing
wear, for sports and for travelling. 1t
is soft enough to be comfortable, and
u%ncrushable and firm enough to need
no support. 1t is made with the inten.
ton OF fitting the head, as to the
crown, and for shading the eyes, as to
the brim. But In the past few seasons
1t has been possible to get Panamas
with very wide brims. and these have
added one more to the number Of
wide-brimmed straws used for the
picturesque fiowerladen millinery o.
midsummer.
But the hat that is dearest to th'
heart OF lovers Of the Panama Is tina

And at three o'clock Sir George, his
wife, and myself set out for that fine
old historic castle that stands high on
the Bognie. When we drove into the
grounds we found a gay party in sum-

bowling green, now transformed into a
modern tennis lawn.
Mrs. Leithcourt and her husband, a
| tall. thin, gray-headed man, both came
| forward to greet us. They we're a
merry crowd. The Leithcourts were
entertaining a large house party, and
their hospitality was on a scale quite
in keeping with the fine old place they
rented.

The unusual and distinguished style
of this costume has been achieved
by the employment of familiar mate
rails. White wolfe, very fine in quail
ity, filet lace, with an open mesh,
soutache braid, and pearl buttons are
all staple goods well known and well
loved.
The pretty fashion of posing one
transparent fabric over another shows
to excellent advantage in the skirt.
The underskirt of wolfe is full and
round. Above the two-inch hem there
are seven narrow tucks an inch and
a half apart. Just above the knees a
band of braiding, in an ornamental
scroll pattern, is applied all around
