No matter what your selection the
arrangement of the cut flowers and
the beauty of the potted plant make
the effect
Poppies, Of gorgeous colors, artist
cally placed in simple glass bowl,
makes one of the most beautiful and
restful center pieces.
For your plants get three or four
asparagus plumosus and give them
good soil of garden Ioam made light
with sand. Water moderately. Sun
shine is not essential to its successful
culture.
Shower several times a week and
keep red spider from injuring it, Be
sure to nip off the end of each shoot,
as advised to above to make the plant
spread out well.
Don't forget that bowl of flowers
on the table is great distributor Of
sunshine and dispeller of gloom.

A Touch of Color.

wash blouses showing trimming con-
trast often give the home dressmaker
ideas for color combinations that lift
a blouse out of the ordinary. An ex
pensive blouse seen recently was a
sky-blue handkerchief linen. All the
seams were hemstitched. It's decoration
was a frill about 4 inches wide Of
White down the front, a sailor collar
and turned-back flaring cuffs of white
organdie. The collar had two rows of
narrow lace, one on the edge. one q
half-inch inside. The front frilI was
run into horizontal short tucks from
the point of the collar to the belt. and
the edges left free formed little ruff
files edged with bordering of valen-
ciennes lace the same width as the col
lar. The cuffs had two rows of creamy
val spaced like the collar.

Reducing WaistIine.

While these are the days of the
Venus de Milo waists, still there are
some women with waists that need re-
ducing. A good exercise for the pur-
pose Is as follows Placing the hands
on the hips, bend the trunk forward
and stretch the arms down until the
fingertips touch the floor. Exhale as
you bend down and inhale as you
straighten up. Repeat this exercise
four or five times daily.

Here is a new UNIFORM Tor girls IN

with skirtlike trousers and long Jack

neck with yoke collar. Boots and
puttees of Russian leather.
wedged. 1t forms a salient that Is be
ing rapidly strengthened and organ,
lied.
The first woman who appeared In
military outfit at fashionable res
taurant at the noon hour received as
much enthusiastic attention as did the
young artillery man who stood be-
hind rapid firing gun mounted in
the lobby of the hotel, with a poster
asking for subscriptions to the Liberty
loan as background.
The woman who wore the military
costume had just come off duty and
was getting her lunch In as much of
a hurry as she could. 1t amused her
very much that number of people
thought she was IN fancy dress cos
tune.
She wore the khaki of the United
States army. Russian leather, low
heeled shoes, very short, scant skirt,
a khaki regulation military jacket and
the regulation cap,
Against the background of filmy
chiffon, strings of pearls, picture hats
and Oriental garb, she made delight
full picture. She was the essence of
simplicity, efficiency and trigness.
Within the month the desire for the
military costume has grown SO great
that one sees all classes Of wom-
en- on errands of war relief in these
khaki outfits. Women who have been
taking their lessons in ambulance
driving, walk through the streets
wearing the full, khaki breeches
which the uniform prescribes, and over
their shoulders Is the full, swirling
cape of the French ambulance and avi-
alton corps.
Greeted With Difference.
Women have long worn riding
breeches on the street, covered with
cape or long top coat, and this new
ambulance costume creates less at
tention in large centers than it would
have done half-dozen years ago; but
even now it creates ripple of interest
which is always attended by approval
al fpnt
no satirical remarks, no laughter from
the men as these uniformed womenpa
through the ranks of people on the
streets. Some of the Difference is
shown to them that is given to the
women with the red cross on their
costumes or the brassard of mercy ON
their arms.
1t is a happy fact to remember,
when one is separating the segments
of fashion for this summer, that the
1S40-60-70 fashions for women have
not reappeared. They were ugly, futile
and costly. Fortunately for us}in this
season of embroglio, we are not asked
to wear frills and founces streaming
ribbons and roses.
Medlevalism is severe, even If gor.
geous at times. The Napoleonic fash
ions are economical, for they run from
what Is known as the First Empire
through the Grecian drapery and to
the Directoire severity.

Wide Belts of Ribbon.

Wide ribbons can hardly be too wide,
indeed wide enough to form the belt,
which reaches from the waist to bust
and goes under the arms. Vivid green's
and pinks and reds often assert them
selves somewhere in a young girls
toilette. Such ribbons also border
skirts.

TABLE DECORATIONS

The best plant for a daily table deco
ration is undoubtedly the asparagus
plumosus. 1t has foliage much dain-
tier than any other fern.
1t can be easily grown in a bushy
compact form which a plant designed
for table use should have.

it and leave it there until late in the

New York.-The medieval in dress
dies hard. The Napoleonic influence
In apparel never really loses its grip.
1t may be said by the historian of
dress that one Of these two phases Of
feminine costumery Is the basis of ev-
cry fashion that comes and goes
The world Of clothes has just ex-
perienced mad revival in medieval
ism. Women of every weight, age and
curve have adopted the gowns of
Queen Guinevere and Meisond.
Such garments have been cut by
the hundred, in block, and they have
been worn In all the market places of
the civilized world for two years. The
Splendid, sweeping robes in which
Guinevere met Launcelot have served
when modified, to carry Mary Jane
to the department store to buy bar.

The swinging sleeves, the loose, jew

widths of deeply colored velvet worn
by Juliet when she went to the somber
tombs of the dead have been worn by

applauding The Midnight Follies.

the designers, IF not to turn it into
present use?" And so, over and over,
the world of apparel greets the rising
of the medieval sun, season after sea.
son, decade after decade.
The Napoleonlc period is as deeply
impressed on the minds of the design
ers. There was nothing medieval
about French costumery throughout the
reign of the superman, but there were
so many eccentricities, such a vast
variety of beautiful lines and curves,
so much glowing narrative and tragic
romance attached to the sweep of
skirt and the flow of sleeve, that the
dressmakers never get away from
those pages of costumery.
NapoIeonic Again Threatens.
Today we are again threatened with
the Napoleonic. We are almost stated
with medievalism. The Directoire
beckons; the First empire allures.
The madness of Nine. Tallien will not
be repeated today, unless France Is
suddenly assured of victory, when, if
history repeats itself, she may go quite
mad again for short time, through
the costumery Of her women.
In this glow of feeling toward the
Napoleonic period we are not even
averse to the laced bodice and the
