WHITE FRocKs FOR STREET
Revival of Muslin, Wolfe and Chiffon
New and Unexpected Feature of
Seasons Fashions.

It is difficult to remember when
white frocks were worn on city streets
in the summer as they are now. The
revival of muslin, voile and chiffon In
dead white, with the addition of a huge
straw hat to give color to the costume
through its chaplet OF flowers, is
striking note this summer, says New
York correspondent.
The checked and striped ginghams,
the wool jerseys, embroidered in col
ored or metal threads, the Scotch plaid
skirts with coats of solid color, are fea-
lures of fashion with which we have
been familiar since May 1, but the re-
vival Of white frocks for all the at
fairs that are taking place in the
city's life is something quite new and
unexpected.
Along with these white gowns are
launched alluring ones OF lowered
muslins, Irish dimitieS and figured
voiles. At any one of the smart res
taurants at the lunch hour large ma
iority Of women look as if they were
dressed for garden parties. Short
skirts, slightly draped founces, over
skirts, simple bodices and cape collars
of muslin are exploited In the kind OF
Powered design which we associate
with tea under the trees.
Sashes in pale blue, citron, hello
trope and deep yellow have come back
into the picture of clothes. They are
made of satin, taffeta, and, often, OF
chiffon. They are wrapped around the
waist once or twice end tied in the
traditional bow and ends at the back,
or looped in Easter fashion at the
side.

Syriac Language.

languages into which the old Aramaic

The Syriac is emphatically Chris.
tan literature language, the Bible was
translated into it as was a dtal Of
writing from the fourth TO the tenth
century, and it, instead OF Latin, Is the
liturgical language of the Roman Cath

The Syro-Chaldaic is variant of
the Syriac, combining features Of both
the Syriac and Chaldaic groups. It is
found In use In Kurdistan and the Lake

The most remarkable event of the
present season was the great ''Foire
de st. Sulpice," organized by the Fran
co-American Committee of the "Se-
cours de Guerre." This wonderful fete
was held in the courtyard of the old
Seminaire st. Sulpice and it attracted
immense crowds, says Italia De Vii
Tiers, a Paris correspondent.
Some of the dresses worn at this
notable fete were lovely. None Of
them were really elaborate or intri-
cate in design, for it is not considered
correct nowadays to wear elaborate
gowns, but the outline Of the moment
is essentially picturesque and becom-
ing. Fragile materials and long,
straight lines made all the beautiful
women look like goddesses.
For example, take the exquisite cos
tune by Worth which was worn by the
Contesse de Chabrillan, and which I
have sketched. The material of the
quaint, short-waisted dress was soft
white tussor silk and the long coat was
composed Of white silk jersey cloth and
pure white wolfe.
The border of jersey cloth was rich
" embroidered in the slime silk on the
transparent yoile which formed the
loose sleeves. With this costume
flat-brimmed hat in leghorn straw was
worn and little bit Of rich color was
introduced on the band which circled
the high crown in the guise of a cluster
of ripe cherries.
want you to pay special attention
to the outline Of this voile and jersey
cloth coat. It is one Of the latest mod
els of our greatest dressmaker and it
indicates the styles which will prevail

NEW USE FOR GlRDLE NOW
Not Designed, Like Those of other
Days, to Hold Material in Posi-
ton About Waist.

There are interesting examples
where the belt has fringe, or at least
a fringe attempt, made Of hanging me-
dallions or coins of graduated length
In this there is a resemblance to the
girdle of the chatelaine, from which
hung the keys of the castle or the more
humble dwelling, betokening the sta
ton Of the wearer of the girdle.
There is this difference between the
girdles of other days and those Of the
present: The former were meant to
tighten in the material about the waist
and to hold it in position and prevent
the lower part of the garment dragging
on the ground.
Now the girdle does not touch the
waist at all, but is posed below 1t and
has no mission whatever as regards the
adjustment of the dress material. Its
object Is to accentuate the long lines
now popular, and SO long as it does
this in a manner to enhance it's own
decorative quality nothing more is re-
quired of it.

From shoulder to hem the coat falls in
absolutely straight lines and the

terials Of which they are composed pre-

Longorio was not the romantic figure
he had been; in his citizens clothes
he was only dandified Mexican gal

color was gone from the picture; this
quixotic guerrilla hero, this elegant
Ruy Bias, was nothing more than a
tall, olive-skinned foreigner, whose ar
dor was distasteful. Longorio was
tiresome.

Jose Sanchez SWears an Oath.
Jose Sanchez made use Of the delay
at Pueblo to institute further inquiries
regarding his missing cousin, but no
where could he find the slightest trace.
Jose swore an oath that he would learn
the truth if it required his whole life
time, and, if it should turn out that
his sainted relative had indeed met
with foul play-well! Jose told his
friends they could judge, by looking at
him, the sort of man he was. He proud
~ displayed Longorio's revolver, and
called it his cousins little avenger. The
weapon had slain many; 1t had a duty
still to perform, SO he said.
Jose intended to confide his purpose
to Mrs. Austin, but when it came time
to start for Las Palmas there was a
fourth passenger in the automobile,

and he was obliged to hold his tongue
for the moment. Alaire was in good
humor, and expressed her relief st
escaping from everything Mexican.

confided.
Dave told her of the latest develop

home happenings, and when she asked
him about his own doings, he Informed
her of the affair which had brought
him to Pueblo.
OF course all three of his companions
were breathlessly interested in the
story of Pine Garza's death; Dolores
and Jose did not allow a word to
escape them.
"Caramba It required bravery to
ride alone into that rincon," Jose de-
clared. 81 know Pine Cara well, and

Alaire turned a quick glance upon
the speaker to find his face set and
his eyes miserable. Impulsively she
laid her hand upon his arm, saying:
