slippers are worn, a pair OF first quail
ity silk stockings should last well
through the bathing season; but after
every dip in the sea the stockings
must be carefully rinsed and hung to
dry in the shade.
The most becoming bathing shoes
lace well above the ankle. They may
be had In satin and IN canvas. There
are various sorts of bathing slippers,
some with a buttoned strap, others
with long ribbons that lace around
the ankle. These look very smart on
the board floor of the bathing pavilion
but when filled with wet sand they
lose their trim daintiness and good
shape. Women who swim we'll refuse
to hamper the feet with bathing shoes
at all and plunge into the water

A Bathing Cape Imperative This Year

To be thoroughly smart, this sea-
son, you must own a beach wrap, 1. e.,
voluminous cape of silk or some
other fabric which may be caught up
carelessy and gracefully for the run
from bathhouse to beach. and vice
versa. A very attractive beach wrap
is pictured. II is made OF orange
and white striped salt water satin with
lining of white satin and the deep,
square collar has tasssls of black silk.
A white satin cap with black rubber
'assels matches the wrap.

Continued Successes Arouse British
Enthusiasm

Berlin, July -(SpeciaD The
Kaiser has made an appeal to his
people not to believe the reports of
the allies gains. He says they are
all lies. The war office reports that
the British and French attacks have
been repulsed.
Paris, July 1S.-The allies fought
in a heavy rain and mist i'm the
Somme district today. The Germans
made determined attack against
the Verdun defenses this morning
but were repulsed. 1t was day of
no gains on either side.
London, July 1S.-The successes
of the entente allies are following
each other with great rapidity. To-
day brought news Of further i'm
portant gains for them on both the
western and eastern fronts, arous-
ing enthusiasm among the British
public hardly less than that caused
by the reception of the first news
of the allied offensive.
The report of Gen. Sir Douglas
Haig today shows that the steady
pressure of the British arms is fore
ing an ever deepening salient into
the German lines, and the comman-
der-in-chief for the first time pro-
duces evidence in the shape of docu-
ments captured from the Germans
giving testimony as to the high price
the Germans are paying in casual
ties.
The British have improved their
position along almost the whole of
their line of the battle front.
The news from the eastern front
today was equally important.
