Judging from the new arrivals In
afternoon gowns the tunic has no idea
of abdicating in favor of the panels
and broad sashes that bear 1t company.
The tunic redeems the adOred straight
line silhouette from severity and is, a
becoming affair-not to be lightly
given up. But 1t must divide honors
with its rivals and make place for
them with itself on the new frocks.
Two other new style notes are max
ing hazard of new fortunes in after
noon gowns-they are the much longer
skirts and wide silk fringes. Fringes
were Immediately accepted and ac-
claimed, but the fate of long skirts
is uncertain. Women have grown in
dependent and will not accept what
ever is presented without question of
its convenience or becomingness.
In the attractive gown shown here,
which might be of any of the supple
silk fabrics, there Is a tunic across
the front and sides with three wide
tucks across the bottom that gradu-
ate it's length. The underskirt takes
no heed of the long skirt mandate, be-
ing less than ankle length. The bodice
opens over vestee of white georgette
crepe, and has the effect Of the pop
ular slip-over model. Its round neck
is outlined with beads and they are
all set in row, like tiny buttons

vERMIN ATTRACTED BY FOOD
If No Scraps Are Around There VIII
Be Little Trouble With Ants or
Reaches,

The surest way to keep house free
from ants is to leave no food lying
about on shelves or in open places,
where they can reach It. Ants go
where they find food, and If the food
supplies of the household are kept In
ant-proof metal containers or in ice
boxes, and if all foods that may hap
pen to be scattered by children or 9TH
ers is cleaned up promptly, the ant
nuisance will be slight. Cake, bread,
sugar, meat, and like substances, are
especially attractive to the ants, and
should be kept from them.
Reaches will not frequent rooms
unless they find some valuable food
material, and If such materials car
be kept from living rooms and offices
or scrupulous care exercised to see
that no such material is placed In
drawers where it can leave an attrnc
tive odor or fragments of food, the
roach nuisance can be- largely restrict
ed to places where.food necessarily
must be kept.

In the pageant of new millinery for
fall, which will soon pass In review,
there will be found so great variety
in shapes that every woman may he
sure of becoming hat. Owing to
the irregularity of brims. the soft
crowns, and the general excellence Of
trimmings and shapes, It is to be
season to be remembered. Hats are
more carefully made than ever, and
hand-craft tells its fascinating story
in their trimmings. There is the
dawn of a tomorrow for ostrich
plumes and beautiful feather pieces
made of ostrich plumes. Many small
handmade ornaments, along with en-
broideries and needlework, in chenille,
floss, yarn, bralds and tinsel threads,
make trimmings as varied as the fam
cies and thoughts Of designers.
Ont of the world of shapes three
types that differ entirely are shown in
the group Of hats pictured here. All
of the shapes are velvet covered, and
this Is the only thing they have In
common. The shapes, to begin with,
are carefully thought out to make their
lines becoming. and trimmers are care
full not to destroy or blur beautiful
lines. In the hat at the top the brlm
Is flexible and its lines flow about the

face in gentle curves. The crown is
not covered smoothly-the velvet is
wrinkled on-and a band Of needle
work in chenille covers the only smooth
part of 1t. Two soft ostrich plumes
take shelter on the under brim
at the back. One can imagine this
rich hat in any of the seasons ia
vored colors and the picture will be
perfect.
Just below It to the left ma
tronly turban reveals a boat-shaped
frame draped with velvet. Set about
the coronet are ornaments, made Of
ostrich fues, that suggest ragged
chrysanthemums. They give the
height required for dignity In hats
for older women. This model will be
effective in any of the darker colors Of
the season.

down the front of the vest. The
sleeve is cut with cuff and flare which
are features of the season, the fiarlng
portion finished with silk fringe.
The sash, made of the same mate
rial as the dress, is very wide. 1t Is
handsomely braided on the girdle
about the waist and on the sash ends.
These are finished with wide fringe.
This is one of the simplest of new
dressy gowns. Since the afternoon
gown is to be called upon to serve for
evening Qs well, some Of the new mod
els are far more intricate in design.
New pile fabrics add to their richness,
and the long heavy silk fringes are
beautifully suited to the materials.
These fringes arc expensive, but, like
fine lace, they are sparingly used.
Waists of Dark CoIors.
Many georgette waists are in dark
colors, such as brown and navy, but
all of these waists are trimmed; with
lighter color, either with vestees
and collars or with embroidery oil
beading. Many strictly tailored blouses
are to be seen and these have high
collars with turnover secuons.
