Because Bingham and organdle are
80 familiar and unpretentious we are
always delighted to find them reap
pearing each season In frocks that have
every claim to beauty. And women
are coming to realize the distinction
of the successful dress that is made
of an ordinary fabric, handled with
consummate art. There is something
sterling about it, something, in fact,
more out of the ordinary than can be
found In a frock that depends upon
novelty in material for its success. Old
friends are best in fabrics, and wheE
they appear in frocks as pleasing as
that pictured above they are thrice
welcome. Imagine what a sensation
they would make If we had never seen
them before.
This summer we find smart frocks
made up in the same designs, of
either bingham, chambray or sport
silk, and organdle or dotted swiss
combined with silk as well as cotton
goods. On cottons old-fashioned rick
rack braid reappears and is cleverly

Police Hoaxed By: Sea Lions
Woman's Cries Call Out Rescue Party
on Wild Night of Point
Flrmin, Cal.

Los Angeles.-It was wild night
off Point Firmln.
A gale was blowing and the edges
Of the huge combers which were roll
Ing into the rocky shore were being
torn to shreds by the wind and driven
in fine spray against the embattled
cliffs.
Suddenly, as the gale died down for
moment, the shrill voice Of a wom-
an apparently battling for her life In
the seething surf, pierced the air.
Another woman In coy cottage
on the cliffs above heard 1t and sent
in hurry call to the harbOr (San Pc
dro) police for rescuers. A dozen
men armed with ropes and life buoys
rushed to the scene in an automobile.
Directed to the spot they hurried
down the cuffs to the edge Of the
foaming sea. Again cry-then more
cries rang out.
What they saw was
A half dozen sea lions each having
the time of its life, barking and ca
vorting about on the rocks
'Tll be," said one policeman,
while the others laughed.
They bundled up their llfe-saving
apparatus and went back to the sta
lion. There they avoided reporters.

TAere has been considerable talk Of
the corsetless figure and much more
drawing Of 1t. When artists picture
morning frocks or afternoon gowns,
and even suits, they hang them on
graceful but emaclated figures c0lcu-
lated to make us envy our adorably
thin sisters and to remind us OF the
question put by that naive japanese
Lady who asked, "Where do they put
their stomachs?" Judging by few late
photographs she would not be impelled
to ask that question now. But the
seasons styles are kind to the natural
lines Of the figure and Just why fashion
artists continue to draw inhuman crea-
lures is n mystery not solved. Any
way, they inspire indolent ladies to
train down and to diet and do sundry
other things In the pursuit Of slender
ness.
"Corsetless" Is not to be taken too
literally--it really means a figure that
looks uncorseted. with lines like those
in the normal youthful body. The best

corsets are too comfortable and too
flattering as O rule to be reiInqulshed.
They are probably the foundation of
the good lines, truthfuly portrayed by
photographs, in the two suits shown
above. In one Of them q dress and
coat takes the place OF the usual three
piece combination. The dress is OF
figured silk with the lower half Of the
skirt made Of plain wool material and
long narrow girdle Of the same goods.
The long coat of one Of the new rough
silks Is cut on the lines of the Chinese
coat and Is bordered with another silk
in q palmer weave. Small buttons set
on the side seams are very attractive
as finish.
The plain box coat over a draped
skirt, shown in the other picture, is an
excellent model for pongee or other
heavy silk for summer wear. Black
embroidery on the coat and sleeves,
and oblong buttons at the top and
bottom of the front lend character and
elegance to the design.

BRITISH WOMEN SCORE AGAIN

London.-BritiSh women have scored
a new triumph by obtaining admission
to the Institution of Naval Architects
as members. The vote taken by the
institute on the question was 491 to
220.
When the result was announced, Sir
William Smith moved that women be
admitted as members on equal terms
with men. Sir Alfred Yarrow, In sec
onding the motion, mentioned the case
of women joiners who were employed
a short time ago in building a destroy

job of It," and the boat was accepted
by the admiralty without a demur He
mentioned another boat which recent
ly attained a speed Of 1856 knots.

speed yet obtained. The lines of that
ship were determined partly by a
young lady named Keary.'

thin People
SHOULD take
PHOSPHATE
Nothing Like Plain Bltro-Phosphats
to Put on Firm, Healthy Flesh and
to Increase Strength, Vleor
and Nerve Force.

Judging from the countless preparations
and treatments which are continually be-
ing advertised for the purpose of making
thin people fleshy, developing arms, neck
and bust, and replacing ugly hollows and
angles by the soft curved lines Of health
and beauty, there are evidently thousands
OF men and women who keeniy feel their
excessive thinness.
ThInness and weakness are often due
TO starved nerves. Our bodies need more
phosphate than Is contained in modern
foods Physicians claim there is nothing
that will supply this deficiency so we'll as
the organic phosphate known among drug
Sists as bitro-p phosphate. which is mex
pensIve and Is sold by most ell druggists
under a guarantee of satisfaction or money
back. BY feeding the nerves directly and
by supplying the body cells with the nee
essary phosphortc food elements, bitro-
phosphate should produce welcome
transformation in the appearance; the in
crease in weight frequently being aston
ishing
Increase in weight also carries with II
q general Improvement in the health.
Nervousness, sleeplessness and lack OF
energy which nearly always accompany
excessive thinness should disappear, duh
eyes become bright, and pale cheeks glow
with the bloom OF perfect health.
CAUTION: - Although pitro-phosphate
Is unsurpassed for relieving nervousness,
sleeplessness and general weakness, It
should not, owing to its tendency to In
crease weight, be used by anyone who
does not desire to put on flesh.

D Rails, which ordinarily serve as a barometer of underlying financial con ditions, were not prominent in the advance, nor were coppers, which were handicapped by the unsettlement in the metal trade.
