Ribbon Modes.

Both wide and narrow ribbons are
generally used on gowns and hats, and
narrow ribbons are used for rOuches,
frills and rosettes. Soft silks are used
for quillings, both vertical quillings,
or in a series, one inside the other.
Whole hats are made Of MORE ribbon
with fancy edge. Smart girdles are
made of three or more shades In pas
tel colorings. A favorite combination
Is rose, old blue and violet Ribbons
with a metal thread forming the
edges and lines running through the
middle make them stiff enough to
stand out crisply when shlrred to form
n ruching or plating for a frill. A
ribbon in hunters green with spots
of cerise and violet in geometric pre-
cision inside the border are suitable
for sports dress. A satin ribbon

UGLINESS OF PAST BECOMES
BEAUTY OF PRESENT.
Art of Paris Is Making Even Worsted
Roses Fit for Gowns of Silver
Lace-Parrot Passes
as Novelty.

A young girl, dressed in a frilled
muslin with blue sash, walking along
Bellevue avenue at Newport one day
last summer created a sensation by
carrying a small bird of brilliant plu-
mage in a fragile gilt cage swung by
ring from her little finger.
The city by the sea, in which sim
plicity is exploited with the same kind
of artificiality as it was by Marie An
toinette at the Petit Trianon, came very
near being actually simple for lack of
incentive to be otherwise.
Therefore, when Mrs. Herman Del
richs, with the artistic aid of Mrs.
Condo Mast and Frank Crowninshield,
held q fashion show at her house in
the name Of war charity, she was
thrice blest both by the residents of
Newport and the outsiders. And then
young girl, of undoubted charm and
prestige, sauntered along the avenue to
the Casino aud the Hilltop Inn,
dangling a bird in a cage from her
finger, she was greeted as one who
had saved O season from that in
nocuous desuetude which Newport
loathes.
The idea was greeted with ripples
Of applause for it's audacious novelty.
Yet, it was a revival from Victorian
days.
The girl with her bird did not have
her novelty to herself very long. All
winter, we have been beseeched to buy
exquisite Chinese bird cages with bril-
liantly plumaged birds seated in them,
to be hung in any room of the house,
whether a cottage or palace.
Tiny birds that glistened like
beetles then came into fashion instead
of the canary, which resembled a new
born chicken.
The milliners seized upon this SYM
Dol Of Victorianism, the gaudy parrot,
and painted and embroidered it on
such a quality of hats that the price
quickly sank to % cents.
The parrot has passed as a novelty
and fashionable pastime in millinery,

SOMETHING FLY COULDN'T Do
Limitations When Called Upon
to Admire Insect.

In the opinion Of some persons, the
new teacher was going almost too far
in her attention to nature study. How.
ever, the children appeared to enjoy
it all, and, so far, no parents had made
open objection to the little talks on
birds, insects. and flowers with which
the teacher diversified the routine of
school work. So all went along quite
comfortably until the afternoon when.
the fly and the flea were, up for con-
sideration.
Following the teachers lead, the
children had all grown enthusiastic
over the astonishing acrObatic abilities
of the fly-all except Robbie May, who
for some time had been staring mood
lily at his desk, casting only occasional
glances at the teacher, and those un-
mistakably sullen.
1t became so noticeable by the time
they were all admiring the fact that
the fly can walk on the ceiling, that
the teacher paused and turned to the
boy.
"What is the trouble, Robbie?" She
inquired. aren't you listeningI
Aren't you interested in the talk?"
"Yp-es," granted Robbie reluctantly
polite. Then, warming up, "but | bet
a fly can't hang by its knees, and
every boy in school can do it, all 'cept
Laurie Lee, and he's had the dipthery 70

drinks. The acid Of the lemon Is cool
ing to the blood, and when the drink
is combined with egg it is also nour-
fishing. A well-beaten egg or two
stirred into a glass of lemonade will
often convey all the nourishment
needed, and the patient does not real
lie Qf he fails to have an appedte)
that he is really being fed.
During the hot weather such foods
as custards, plain rice, farina and corn
starch, as well as rice flour, make del
icate dishes, easily digested by an in
valid. An uncooked custard Is liked
by many; simply chill the milk, add
the egg and sugar, beat well, and serve
with q bit Of flavoring and a pinch of
salt. This is one form of egg nog.
1t is never safe to experiment with
foods upon a convalescent as what Is
one mans food is another mans poi
son." Buttermilk will agree beauti-
fully with some people with intestinal
trouble when cream, top milk and
matted foods cannot be taken at all.
The physician should always be con-
suited and his advice carefully fol-
lowed in regard to the proper feeding.
Such foods as delicately cooked eggs,
kumiss, milk cruel, barley or rice -four
cruel Qong and we'll cooked), or Scald-
ed milk are often we'll borne by those
troubled with inflammation Of the di-
geStive tract.
A colicky baby may often be re-
lieved from pain by giving a half of
a soda-mint tablet dissolved in little
warm water. Lay warm water bag
between your knees and turn the baby
stomach down over this; rub and pat
gently and the pain will disappear In a
few minutes.
AS these are the trying weeks for
babies, they should have especial care
keeping them cool and allowing them
| to have an occasional cool drink. Cross
fretful babies cannot tell you that they
are choking with thirst.

SHOULD NOT SHOW WAISTL!NE
When Divided by oppos-
ing Colors.

Here and there, throughout the dec
AIDES since the separate blouse was
Invented, there have been individual
women who have firmly held to the
conviction that a woman's figure
never looks well when sharply d.
vided at the waistline by two oppos-
Ing colors and fabrics; and these
women have insistently kept on their
coats in and out of the house. The
coat might have been of lighter ma
terial than the skirt in winter wealth
er when 1t was intended for the house,
but 1t served the purpose of making
0 strong line of the same color from
shoulder to heel.

INSIST ON FREQUENT CHANGE
for the Variations of Styles
in Clothes.

Women want something new to wear
every few months. The absolute
truth of this statement is what puts
the world of women against refOrmers.
1t is easy to read and write reams of
theories as to why women should not
indulge in the caprice of new
clothes; and, with delightful ingenious
ness, these dress refOrmers put the
blame on the style-makers and shops,
ignoring the fundamental truth that
the blame should be placed on the
women.
Those who are sincere and those
who are insincere but want to be
heard crying aloud in the market
places, do not go far enough into the
clothes question when pleading for
dress reform.
What normal woman would want to
be robbed of her privilege of seeing
new clothes and buying them when
ever it is possible? What healthy.
minded woman would want to &C
through life wearing the same gown
cut on the same lines and preserved
or copied, from season to season?
Mary Garden, the opera singer, an
swered this whole question once in ar
interview on the deck of q steamer
when she was sailing for Paris. j
was at the height of the great hubbul
concerning the question Of American
clothes only.
The reporter called up from tn,
gangplank. "When, in your opinion
will American women wear American
clothes only and show their patriot
ISM"
when they're dead" she called gu
over the rail- "They can't protes
against an American shroud. "-EX

BACK TO VICTORIA

but another bit of Victorianism is
creeping over the land.
1t is the worsted rose. France, look
ing at the past for her clothes in
spiration, instead of the present and
future, has lifted another bit of fancy
work out of early Victoffanlsm and
flung it into the current of the most
daring modern fashions. We already
have tulle and satin gowns caught up
with dubious roses, made of soft, fine
wool, in enchanting colors.
Serge suits are caught at the waist
line and neck with small roses In
green, scarlet, yellow and black. In
formal linen suits, In the natural tone
of the linen thread, have black and
green worsted roses somewhere on the

New ParasoIs Are Quaint.

The season is conspicuous for the
novelty and charm of it's parasols.
Among the novelties are sunshades of
all kinds of queer and quaint and I'M
usual shapes, many of them having
stripes that radlate from the stick.
Stripes are great feature, whether
the parasol be dome shaped or pagoda
shaped. Many of them are copied
from the sunshades of our grand
mothers, which were covered with
multitudes of miniature frills.

GETTING Even.

"Now, what do you want?" asked
the sharp-tempered woman.
81 called to see if l could sell you
some bakin' powder, ma'am," said the
seedy gentleman with the staggering
whiskers.
"Well, you can't sell no bakin' pow
der here, and l amt got no time to
waste on peddlers, anyway"
"Come to think of it, maam," said
the seedy gentleman, as he fastened
his bag, 81 wouldn't care to sell you
any powder. This poky little kitchen
of yours is so low in the ceilin' that
the bread wouldn't have no chance to
rise"

There are ever SO
many of them all around that the
Fairies can find I suppose"
"Yes, Nick, you're quite right" said
Daddy, and Nancy smiled, for she loved
to think of the little Fairies bright and
early in the morning letting the cool
water that shoots down the rocks go
all over them.
"And as special honor because
they'd been invited to the Fairies
Luncheon Party, the Tree Toads tried
to look their best, too. They asked
the Dew Drops If they could wash
their little faces in their rare wa
ter. And the Dew Drops We're very
willing, especially when they heard
that the Tree Toads wanted to look
their best for the Fairies.
"Dew Drops always make the AMI
mails look so much better, and to the
fairies they look very handsome when
they have washed their faces in the
magic dew drops that come all over
the ground each morning.
'NOw when the Fairies saw the Tree
loads and when the Tree TOads saw
the Fairies they all gasped. The Tree
Toads had never seen the fairies look
ing so lovely. They wore dresses of
very soft green which were decorated
with little purple Daisies. Their wands
matched, and their wings were the
color of soft, pale green, too.
"And they were sitting around in
the Wooded Grove on ferns and messy
patches of ground when the Tree
TCads arrived.
But the Tree Toads gave the Fairies
just as much of a surprise, for they
wore green suits, too. They looked
quite noble for having washed their
faces with magic Dew Drops, and they
wore green spectacleS made out Of
leaves with holes, to make them look
wise. In addition to all this they
carried green canes made out Of young
trees, and they arrived in an old wag-
on made out of the root of a tree.
The wagon was drawn by the Green
Lizard family.
First got out Grandpa and Grand
ma Tree Toad, and then all the young
or Toads hoped out after.
"'Glad to see you, Toads and Green
Lizards, too said the Fairies. And
the toads made very queer sounds
down in their threats which meant :
We're glad to see you, too The Liz
ards wriggled with pleasure, for, of
course, they had been brought along
as an excuse to draw the wagon for
the Toads and they were delighted
