CLEANING AND COLORING.

There are two things to do to articles
dust. bleaching sun. perspiration and
them OF course II the color is actually
faded out cleaning will hardly do any
good Often. however, things that are ap-
parently faded are only badly soiled and
a thorough cleaning is all that they need.
The market is. full Of cleaners and col
soiled white straw hat, first try cleaning
Il with some bottled or boxed prepara-
tion and then. II IL remains soied look
ing. try coloring IT with some other prep
aration.
So. too, ,df white frock or blouse seems
yellowish or grayish, boil it first IN wa
ter 10 which little washing soda is
good. II not, get some dye and dye Il to
some pretty, shade of pink or blue.
Rag rugs that have been washed 30
many times that they are losing their
color can be satisfactorily dyed The
color in them will modify the color Of tho
dye to some extent, SO count on that
when you are choosing the color to dye
them.
There are many satisfactory hat dyes
with which straw hats can be colored
easily in almost any shade. Follow the
these commercial color1ng liquids to got
the best results.
For faded pink lingerie, remember,
there are bottles Of pink liquid to restore
its original hue A few drops of red ink
10 a bowl of water, too. will brighten
pink lingerie, and so Will little red dye,
well diluted with water.

'JTnderthings" and neglige gar
ments are quite as important to the
well dressed woman as are the suits,
gowns and coats of her wardrobe. she
knows that smart dressing must have
a correct foundation. and that such
foundation never consists of poorly
made ill-fitting undergarm Per-
sonal daintiness demands that a real
pride be taken in the material and
make of lingerie and neglge apparel.
and while there is rarely as quick and
radical a revolution in the style nneS
of these garments as is realized ire
quently in outer apparel, certainly un-
dergarment STYLES do change and each
season sees the introduction OF many
novelties.
Sheer silks and very soft, pliable
satinS are well liked for undergar-
ments by many women, while Tor real
hot weather wear the thin cottons-
batiste, net, etc.-are generally pre-
ferred.
White batiste and muslin under
garments are correctly trimmed with
organdy embroidery in all white or in
French gray, and dainty embroideries
carrying two colors, such as the paleSt
of pink and blue shades, are featured.
For underbodices satin and Geor-
gette crepe are the most popular fab
RIGS regardless of season or weather.
Either material may be used alone or
the two effectively combined

dress that may be made of crepe de

enchanted women when the American
designers adapted them to the immedi-

shops were so flooded with these chintz

Special Correspondence of The Star

Special Correspondence of The Star
NEW YORK, July 1s.-There Is no
diminution in the enthusiasm with
which the average American woman re-
CARDS gardening. Just when and how
this modern revival of an old time
science and pleasure took place no one
can remember. but the influx of garden
ing clothes started nearly two years
ago.
1t is not to be supposed that every
woman who sees health and happiness
in digging in her garden and whose
conversation among her intimate wom-
an friends Is mainly made up of seeds
and blossoms and certain soils is equal
ly taken up with the clothes she wears
during the hours she gives to her flow-
ers; but there are enough women who
go in for the personal side of garden
ing to make these special clothes a
source of income to their dressmakers.
When MARITIME Chintzes Came.
Cretonne was quickly chosen as the
proper material to use for this purpose
in large quantities. One must go back
to the house of MARITIME or to Paul
Poiret to find the source of this fashion.
In this astounding and interesting shop
there started chintzes that were orig
inal and brilliant, and which quickly
took their place in all manner of deco
rative schemes.
Stripes, fiat flowers and waxen fruit
on dotted surfaces quickly supplanted
the boldly fowered cretonne of other
days; a soft. pliable surface became
more useful than a calendared one, and
a black background on which vivid
flowers or geometricaI shapes were
thrown were shown to be artistic and
out of the common.
1t Is also to the house of MARITIME that

bit wearied OF tho idea and the result
then. as Is again the way with America
after the first rush Of weariness wa:
over. the fashion was taken up agair
by the fastidious. and today we delight
in 1t.
The Newest idea.
Some one has invented hat and q
basket for gardening that will appeal
to the fancy Of the women who go in
for the artistic and eschew the COM
monplace in all fields of dress.
There is a sketch Of both Of these to-
day. The foundation Of both basket and
hat Is leghorn straw in its natural pale
lemon tone. On the surface Of each are
applied stin figures Of women in old
fashioned costumes. These are cut out
of cretonne in solid colors and in floral
and striped designs. deftly pasted to
the straw.
Instead Of the garden hat following
the usual shape Of all such headgear It
borrows its silhouette from the basket
and stands high above the wearer's g
head.
It looks as though she had two
baskets ana had shaken out the flowers
from one and tossed 1t up on her head.
Here's an idea for a summer gift to
some woman who you know has q pas
sion for flowers.

Jack Fall, who has been in Jail
at Nogales for several months
waiting trial for the murder of
Tom Castlebury, which occurred
in the blacksmith shop at Patago>
MIA, was tried before a lunacy
board last week. Of late Fall has
made attempts to commit suicide,
and it was claimed he was insane.
The examination failed to prove
his insanity however, and he will
have to face trial for the alleged
murder of Castlebury. The trial

CHANGE IN REGlSTRA-
TON WILL NOT BE
ALLOWED

1t will be impossible for voters
in Coohise county to change their
registl alton, according to the de,
cision handed down by Judge
Lockwood in the superior court
at Tom bstone last week. The court
denied the writ of mandamas So.
sured by James Chapman, of Bis
bee, to compel County Recorder
Murphy to change his (Chapman's)
registration. This means that
voters who registered as having
no party affiliation cannot partic-
ipate in the primary election, that
those who designated their party
affiliation can vote only for candi-
dates of that party.
The following opinion, which is
contrary to Judge Lockwood's de-
cision, was rendered by Attorney
General Wiley E. Jones, and has
been sent to the recorders Of the
various counties of the state.
However, it is merely an opinion,
and in Cochise county. is overruled
by the decision of the superior
court:
"Voters who have registered as
members of one political party and
who wish to change their registra-
ton to that of members of an.
other party may do so, provided
they call at registration Offices and
request the change before the
close of registration September 2,
which is the time for the closing
of the books prior to the prim aries.
This applies to voters who have
registered as non-partisans or to
those Of any party who wish TO
change from one to another. Those
who have registered as non-parti-
san could not have vote in the
primaries otherwise, hence the
events leading to this change"
