the waistline. Another distinguishing
new touch appears in the wide band
about the flaring sleeve. An en-
broidery pattern in chain stitching in
the same color as the blouse makes
an interesting ending to this chapter
in the story of new styles in blouses.
At the right CT the picture white
crepe de chine proves once more Its
adaptability to practical blouses. The
panels at the back and front of this
blouse are finished with hens and hem
stitching, and crushed girdle of
crepe de chine lies easily about the
waist. The f1aring sleeves are cut
into an odd shape and faced back with
a band of the crepe de chine. Two
little silk crochet balls call attention
to the originality of the sleeve and
help to make it hang well.
Clusters of grapes with leaves and
tendrils outlined are embroidered on
the front of the blouse in three groups.
AS in the dark blouse, this embroidery
is machine made, but In this instance
1t Is Just as effective as handwork.
As harbingers of the new styles for
fall these blouses do not foretell any
very radical changes. A few new
models have round necks higher than
those in the picture, and greater
proportion of ,blouses in dark colors
indicate that skirts will probably
match the waist worn with them.
But it Is a little too early to do more
than draw conclusions which may not
prove conclusive.

Women, having taken a violent
fancy to smocks for summer wear,
have replaced few blouses with these
newer garments. The smock has not
arrived at the place where 1t rivals
the blouse in popularity, but its adj
vance toward that stage has caused
blousemakers to consider it and to
adapt their designs to its lines. A
great many of the new blouses have a
peplum and very loose girdle at the
waist so that they are very close kin
TO the smocks that have no waistline
other than that made by loose cord
or narrow girdle placed in the most
casual manner possible.
Among the blouses that extend be
low the waistline and some inches
over the skirt there are many that
have this extension only at the back
and front, like those shown In the
picture above. They carry strong
suggestion of the smock, and stout
women like them because they make
the figure look more slender than
those blouses that have a peplum or
the smock.
The blouse at the left is made of
dark blue georgette with a very mar
row binding of satin to match, about
the neck. Other edges are finished
with a picot and seams are hem
stitched. Slashes in the front and
back are finished with picot edges
and a narrow girdle of the georgette
is slipped through them. This is a
novel and very pretty management of

LOVERS REFUSE TO PART
Pennsylvania Girl Burns Self to Death
as Sweetheart Dies by
Bullet.

Northampton, Pa.-Two lovers, Nave
Eewhard, sixteen years old, and Pal
mer Lilly, nineteen years old of North.
Pmpton, Pa, died in tragic manner
ms the result, it is asserted, of sui.
eide pact. The parents of the girl had
refused to permit her to accept the
attention of Lilly.
The young people walked to Hover
town, mile away from their home,
where they sat down by the roadside
and ended their lives. The girl, with
the assistance of her lover, it is
thought, set fire to her dress and was
burned to death. Then young Lilly,
according to the theory of the coroner,
shot himself several times through the
head, dying few minutes later.
The pair left a note on the ground
in which they told of their purpose to
die, as they could not live apart.

things which are necessities, such as
crackers, cheese, pickles, olives, jel-

which is found in every well-regulated
home, desserts and salads of various
kinds may be quickly prepared. A

otherwise plain dish.

A supper dish that is economical

a cupful of cooked rice with three or
four eggs. Put the rice with a little
milk into saucepan, add the eggs,
stirring them into the mixture. Cook

comes one which takes finesse on the
part of the menu planner. The prep
aration of leftover into an appetiz-
ing dish takes vastly more thought
than the ordinary one, which Is often
the reason why such dishes are not
acceptable; they are prepared with
too little thought.
The reason so many men balk at
salads Is because they are used as the
clearing house for leftovers. There is
something out of balance with a per
son who has not learned to enjoy crisp,
well-blended salads or well-cooked
and seasoned vegetables, but no one
can be blamed for refusing unattrac-
tive food.
In meeting people and making
friends we try to be as agreeable as
It is possible to be- Why not use the
same method in combining foods, by
putting little originality into the
seasonings, and make new dish well
come?
We have favorite foods as we have
favorite friends, yet it is not possible
nor wise for US to always be served
with the foods we like best or asso-
eiate with people always agreeable.
Daintiness should be the keynote In
the serving of the summer meal, as at
tractive dishes sharpen the appetite.
By following the advice of Horace
Fletcher and chewing the food three
times as long as usual, the appetite is
satisfied with smaller amount of
food and the body has less waste to
throw off. thus saving wear on the
human machinery. Eat less, work
more worry TESS, walk more" is a
good motto for the whole year as well
as for hot weather.

the remains of some of the victims, de-

In the kitchen Of the home were
found meat saws, such as only butch

The edge of this type of veil is always

Roper Explains Taxes
On Manufacturers Sales

Washington, May 4.-Taxes im-
posed under the new revenue act
upon sales by manufacturers, pro-
ducers and importers of works of
art and jewelry and on transporta-
ton were explained by Commits
sioner of Internal Revenue Roper in
series Of rulings made public to-
day.
The tax on sales by a manufac-
turer, producer or importer is paya-
Bile directly by him or his agent and
is measured by the price for which
the article is sold and not on the
list price. The tax is payable on a
sale whether or not the purchase
price is actually collected and dis
counts may not be deducted. If an
article is increased IN price to cover
the tax, the tax is on the increased
price.
The manufacturers taxes cover a
number of articles and ranges from
5 per cent on automobile trucks and
wagons to 100 per cent on dirk
knives and daggers.
The jewelry sales tax is 5 per cent
and applies to articles to be worn
for the purpose of adornment. Ar
ticles carried in a handbag or in
the pocket, such as cigaret cases,
powder boxes and purses, are tax
able as jewelry only if ornamented
with precious stones.
