Military Cape for Small Girl.

mothers and grown-up sisters there
seems to be no reason at all why the
younger member of the family should
not insist that she, too, have one, says
a writer in the Washington Star. The
cape is an ideal spring and summer
wrap, as it gives all the warmth and
protection ordinarily required. and can
be slipped on over the filmiest of
frocks without mussing the frock as
coat with sleeves would.
Many capes developed for adults
show set-in vests or inside sections,
with loose flowing outer part. This
arrangement, however, would not be
satisfactory for the smaller models. To
make a cape comfortable and just
right for the little girl, at the same
time giving it an unusual style touch
so it isn't merely one of the stereo-
typed Red Riding Hood affairs, this
little cape is cut off at the waistline
back and front and fullness let in by
means of plaits.
To make this cape for a girl of six
or eight years two yards of material
SO inches wide will be required If de-
sired, the cape may be lined through
out with the red, and this is recon-
mended if the trifling additional weight
Is not objected to.

NoveIists and Schoolgirls:

Scott never mentions a schoolgirl.
Imagine Thomas Hardy fashiOning
schoolgirl out of Wessex clay, or
George Meredith venturing to describe
Diana of the Crossways in those early
years. Arnold Bennett would have
created little miniature old wife, as
Van Eyck and Memling paint babies
like miniature old men. H. G. Wells
would depict her as incipient tempta
ton to lead Mr.. Britling, for instance,
into one of dozen romantic adven-
lures. GalswOrthy would try to fit her
into an ethical system, into a niche
of social justice or matrimonial VEN
lures. Mr.. HOwells, one may imagine,
might have essayed the task; but he
would have tried to meet the difficulty
of getting the right values-as q paint
er dabs blues on yellOws to make a
green-by adding to primness, remi-
niscent of the Vicar of Wakefield, a
few delicate hOydenish touches. AS
there is no such thing as a schoolgirl
on the continent, French and Italian
novelists do not mention her. Indeed
the schoolgirl, as we see her, Is an
American product and modern.-H. D.
Sedgwick, in the Atlantic Magazine.

Gowns of Lace and Ribbon.

Gowns of combination laces with
touches of color added by silks and
satins used for girdles, pipings and
petticoats are immensely popular.
Malines lace, Louis Nv filet, and chan
lilly, the latter beautifully tinted, and
some run through with either gold or
silver threads are noted. Heavy valen-
ciennes is used for the bodice of a
gown which has the upper part of the
skirt of cornflower blue brocaded chif-
fon and from the knees down the
valenciennes lace used in ruff1es, and
showing through is petticoat of coral
chiffon. Coral MORE ribbon is en-
ployed for sash and girdle. A hat
of coral MORE and valenciennes lace
trimmed with cornflower blue narrow
velvet ribbons and tiny pink roses goes
with the gown.

Smart TRAVELLING Tous.

Tailleurs Of beige, blue and gray
serge of cheviot, waistcoats of checked
wooden stuffs in odd colors-there is a
pretty one of green and beige checked
cheviOt with mere line of black
manteaux of jersey or checked and
plain cheviot,- hats of satin, cloth or
tricot de laine; nothing is forgotten,
says Vogue. The blouse figures again
in the travelling outfit In fact, in
view of dust and cinders, the blouse
is almost indispensable. 1t may be in
the form of smart gilet with q
guimpe Of soft muslin, or it may be
a peplum blouse of crepe de chine,
satin or tinted muslin. OF the travel
ing frock may be sleeveless slip of
serge or tussah with a sleeved guimpe
Of some thin stuff Very like the old
Jumper" is this last mentioned travel
ing froek, which, by the way, is much
liked.

TuIIe Hats of Tete de Neure.

Transparent hats of tete de negre
are worn with dresses of pale tinted
null. The tulle hat is new and is
much worn at the moment A fetching
little brim is made of tete-de-negre
straw; whirl Of tete-de-negre tulle
forms the crown. The tall couture
supports this tulle crown, which is
quite transparent, says Vogue.
Hats are growing taller and taller.
The brim may be wide or narrow, but
the crowns of most Of the smartest
hats are very tall. A novelty is
"straw" of taffeta tulle or ribbon,
which is used for small hats of differ
ent sorts-nOt that any hat is really
small this season.

MAKE OLD PETTICOATS new
Detachable FIounces Also Enable One
to Have an Underskirt to Match
Every Dress.

Decidedly practical are the tailored
petticoat flounces which will give a
new lease of life to the underskirt
whose upper section is in good condi-
ton but whose plaitings have become
frayed or shabby.
The latter may be removed and the
attachable pettlcoat flounces put on.
They are made with a drawstring adj
Unstable to the old petticoat or to the
new. In width they measure about
two yards and in depth about nine
inches. According to ones preference
the attachable flounces are to be
had in chiffon, taffeta or messaline.
For the knockabout petticoat there
are flounces of sateen or percaline in
a variety of colors so that by merely
changing the f1ounce to match the tone
of the dress one may have, to all in
tents and purposes, several petticoats
by merely possessing several flOunces.

CAPEFOR THE KIDDIE
PEASANT LACE IS ADOPTED
Paris Designers Go to Roumania for
Heavy CoIored Trimming Used Ex-
tensiveIy in That Country.

1t may be that the incoming of lace
as a powerful fashion for the summer
may not bring forth the best of results
in costumery. What woman owns
in the way of fine lace she will not cut
and reshape except under the lash OF
conviction that she can do nothing less
if she is to make use of her possession,
observes fashion authority.
A few of the French designers have
gone to Roumania for the heavy string
colored lace used by the peasantry,
and have built tunic frocks of 1t,
mounting it on slips of bright-colOred
satin or silk. One tunic that reaches
nearly to the ankles is girdled trifle
below the waist, and again above it,
with rolled sashes of blue silk, and
there is q foundation Of this silk to
give color through the wide meshes Of
the coarsely woven lace.
Although the finer laces, such as
point. Venetian, Bruges, dAlencon. and
their sisters, are used ON the hand
somer gowns, there is a return to a
design that is conspicuously open and
appears to be more artistic sprawl
ing of threads finely knotted together.

Uneven Hangs the Hem.

There is great diversity of opin-
ion as to the sort of hens deemed
proper for the smartest of skirts. Many
favor the uneven hem, even for wood
tailleurs. Some skirts are shorter and
somewhat fuller than the eyen-edged
models. Practically all of the leading
couturiers turn up the hem of some of
their soft satin and chiffon models,
while Worth makes nearly all of his
skirts with this charming double eff
feet. Several of his very lovely after
noon dresses of charmeuse show this
skirt topped by simple kimono blouses
opening over waistcoats embroidered
in gold.-Harper's Bazaar.

By EDWARD w. PiCkARD.

More than 100000 men between
the ages of twenty-0nn and thirty
years responded to the call Of the MAJ
ton on Tuesday June ), registration
day for the national army. Thus the
first step in the execution of the Sc
lCctive service law was completed with
gratifying success and the predictions
Of the Germans and of the traitors in
America who side with them that the
registration would be a failure were
proved false.
That there would be opposition to
tn" registration was Il f0regonn con-
cIsion, but it was sporadic and on
the whole was Of no Importance. Such
hoStila demonstrations as there were
generally took place in stron%ho!hS of
the |. w. w. and the Socialists amd
were promptly squ2lched.
Returns from some states were be-
low the estimates of the census bu
rCau, but in ether states those cSti-
mates were exceeded. A large pro-
portion Of these registering claimed
exemption, usually because of depend
cnt relatives, and the war department
officials, as a result, intimated that the
rules governing exemption would be
tgiltcncd
The considerable number of claims
for exemption really does not mean
that so many young Americans desire
to avoid service. Such conclusion
inc lor
there were evidences of ,lnbounded pa
triotism and loyalty. and the indica-
lions of exemption claims arose mainly
from the necessary answers to ques-
tions that were merely statistical.
AS soon as the machinery of regis
tration is reafiusted 100000 names
will be drafted, the exemption boards
Will do their work ana G25,O00 men
will be called for immediate service

Stout women, especially in the sum-
mer time, frequently find difficulty in
selecting a gown that will in no way
emphasize their Iargeness. The latest
styles aim at sIenderness Of appear
ance. This costume is specially de-
signed sveItIine model with long girdIe
ends, rows of buttons, and overdrap-
cry, all of which gives sveIt fashion
able appearance. This looks cool and
comfortable and there is small doubt
that any woman of generous size may
