Get Out Your Irish Lace.

II we were ever justified in hoard
ing old apparel after we had laid it
aside 1t was in the case of the Irish
lace that was SO important a part of
every woman's wardrobe a. decade
ago. For now that it bids fair to be-
ing revived in good earnest we dis
cover that the old pieces of Irish that
we put away some years ago have de-
Perforated not a whit. And. although
we thought it was fairly expensive il
the days when it was last in favor. it
pensive now.
All that your Irish lace needs by
way of making it entirely availa Bile
for present use is to be whitened, and
1T is really absurd to send it to a pro-
fessiona1 cleaner for this-that is, if
YOU have any place at all at your
disposal where you can catch a little
bright sunlight. Irish lace is extreme
lE substantial Remember that good
linen has gone through a strenuous
water and sun treatment before it is
woven, and if you want to restore it
to its original whiteness just bleach
1t IN the sunshine. If you can find a

spread it while it bleacheS so much

and the remnant counters offer short
lengths and odds and ends that may be
bought at very trif1ing cost and used for
the fashionfng Of the loveliest garments
imaginable.
The sketch offers suggestion for
graceful neglige or hostess gown. The
underneath part is made of chiffon or
Georgette in any preferred shade, laid in
accordion or very small fiat pleats. Over
this Is worn a long coat of lace or print
ed sheer fabric. The garment may be
made in round length, as shown, or it
may be cut with a moderate train. A
Tram Is usually graceful and becoming
to the average figure, but dress cut in
round length gives longer service and
is generally found to be more comfort
able.
lnasmuch as lace is being used so
much this season, it is especially rec
commended for the coat of the hostess
gown shown here. The lace may be
white, black or dyed any preferred color,
or white filet net may be embroidered
IN gold and made over a petticoat or
underSllp of maize, blue, green or rose
colored chiffon

There are puffs to trim the edges of
the taffeta. and there are tight, round
bodices that show the curve of the
bust.
There are other afternoon frocks in
black, with slightly crumpled Medici

bell-shaped elbow sleeves with sew

There is a stage frock of shell pink

simplicity and the delicacy of it's col
oring, it stands out as a distinguished
gown. /
From these indications it may be
that taffeta will really be acceptable
to smart women when the season be-
gins at Palm Beach. Half the gowns

There is no objection to taffeta for

HOSPITAL WORK IS EASY"
Only Eight Requisites, American
Worker in France Says.

According to an American woman
who has been working for the Red
Cross at a hospital center at Mars
sur-Allier. France. it is easy" to be
GOOD hospital hut worker. There
are only eight requisites. she writes
home. for those fitted to represent
the Red Cross at hospital center.
These are:
The meekness of Moses. the wis
dom of Solomon. the charity of the
Queen of Sheba. the strength of
Samson, the longevity of Methusaleh,
the democracy of the Good ,Samari-
tan and the Diplomacy of Machia Yelli.

gin bleaching, 1t should be remoist
from time to tine as it remains in the
sun. If you dc not get desired results
with the first attempt simply keep on
bleaching. TIE strength of the sun
rays will be enough to restore the
original whiteness if you but give
them time.
Irish lace needs no ironing. When
it is partly moist place it on a per-
fectly clean Ironing board and spread
out. Then carefully with new pins
pull out and fasten the lace to the
pedding on the board. 1t should be
dried fairly randly so as not to al
low the pins to become rusty. AS it
dries work the roses-if there are
roses in your l,ce-into shape with
your fingers. Laer if you wish to use
an iron apply tito the wrong side of
the lace. but dc not depend on the
ironing to strai,hten the design of
the lace. This is best accomplished by
the stretching process described.

Attacked by Prussian Guards.

ION March ) at o'clock in the
morning We were attacked by the
our first victory. We killed and
wounded over 500 boches and only
had eight men killed and twenty
three wounded From then on until
May 81 we We're not bothered Very
much except by an occasional pom

were attacked by the boche, who first
of all put on gas barrage and then
followed it up with raid on our
trenches. but, as before, we killed or
wounded large number of the
enemy 1t was in this attack that my
captain was seriously gassed, two
lieutenants killed. twenty-seven men
killed and eighty-seven wounded.
After staying on this front for liz
days we pulled out for the Cham
payne front. We waited about ten
days for the boche to start a drive we
knew was coming. At last. on Bastile
day. July Il. at midnight, the barrage
started. 1t was eighteen hours of the
most terrific bombardment of the war
After this the Hun attacked. once
more we met the Prussian GUARDS.
For six hours the boche kept coming
over. Our machine guns and auto
matte rifles kept up bullet barrage,
and not one German reached our mont
line.

men killed.. .A1lHOuSH W iooS u oooA

after coming off this front we ex-
pected a long rest, but after two days
we were replaced and went into Cha
teau Thierry. 1t was there. on the
aSth of July, that we took the Ourcq
river and the town of Sergy. beyond.
\fter that attack we has thirty men
left in my company. On July 30 we
advanced and captured fifty machine

in the fighting of last summer until

at Liverpool December "a. After five

1t always seemed to us that the
most spectacular figure ever produced
by world series or by any other
big sporting event was Lank Hank
Gowdy, the blond backstop of the Bos-
ton Braves, who bludgeoned his way
to fame in 1914, writes Damon Run
yon.
Unheralded and unsung, Lankus
Hankus went into that series and
ripped 1t wide open. He was sup
posed to be an Anticipated sort of
fellow behind the bat, an Indifferent
catcher and bum hitter, but for four
stirring days the long Ohioan was a
Solomon squatting in the shade of the
hickOries and a Hercules when he
straddled the plate.
An ingenious fellow is Lank Hank
Gowdy, with an ingenious smile and
an ingenious way Of thinking. After
the series was all over and we took
to reflection and retrospection it
seemed to us quite natural that he
should have turned out to be hero.
SaIutation Worth While.
We saw Lank Hank during the last
world series up at the Polo grounds.

WORLDS SERIES "IRON MAN"
Deacon PHILIPPE Pitched Forty-Four
Innings in Contest Between
Pirates and Red Sox.

Despite the fact that he pitched in
four games and won three decisions
over the Giants, Urban (Red) Faber
fell just II innings short of equaling
the all-time iron man" record for q
worlds series.
The Chicago pitcher saved from the
bushes by McGraw to have him beat
the Giants out of a worlds title.
pitched q innings in four combats.
In the 1903 series between the Pi-
rates and Red Sox. Deacon Phillipe
of Pittsburgh twirled A innings in that
series.
F'aber will deserve the tribute that
goes with winning three games in the
series, and takes his place among a
select few who have done this same
thing. Only six other pitchers ever
performed this feat. They are Bill
Dineen Of the Red Sox, who won three
against Pittsburgh in 1903; PHILIPPE Of
Plttsburgh, who won three from Bos-
ton In the same series; Christy Math-
ewson, who took three from the Ath-
letics, all shutouts, in 1905; Babe Ad-
ans OF Pittsburgh, who captured three
from Detroit in 1909; Jack Coombs,
who won a trio of decisions over the
Cubs In 1910, and Joe Wood of the
Red Sox, who was victor in three over
| the Giants in 1912.
No other pitcher bore quite as heavy
a burden as did PHILIPPE, back in 1908.
or the eight games played, PHILIPPE
started and finished five-the first,
third, fourth, seventh and eighth.
