DINKIsH orchid is an exquisite color.
and particularly like it when COM
bined with blue in a greenish tone
deeper than turquoise and lighter than
French blue.
Madame has just completed for Miss
Gorten to wear at Newport. where her
mother entertains extensively during the
season.
Nearly all Miss Gorton's dinner gowns
are very simple. and this one-is particu-
larly becoming to her.
The bodice is orchid crepe chiffon laid
! over a camisole lining of silver cloth
and orchid net. The silver shows only
in the rounded points of the U-shaped
opening in the front and back.
The edges of the overblouse are run
with crystal beads in pinkish shade
that reflects the tones of the orchid
chiffon.
The girdle is oi1angeabls orchid satin
run with areen-blue ribbon and mar
row line of silver cloth.
The drop skirt Is orchid satin. and is
weighted around the lower edge to give
it narrowpess around the feet and still
permit of it's being wide enough for
dancing comfort
Nearly all our gowns are weighted
with tapped weights that may be bought
by the yard at any notion counter. I
often think when I pick UP one of our
gowns that I'd hate to be weighed in
it. Even the fiiniest gown that Madame
makes is apt tc be weighted in ways
that you would never suspect The
hens are frequently weighted and some
times If the dress Isn't hemmed the
weights are sewed in a bias binding of
the dress material or of its trimming
On the drop skirt of this dinner gown
are run three bands of green-bIue rib
bon tied in front in pert little bows.
The oyerskirt is cut away in front to
show these bows. and il lengthens
toward the back. giving a very beeona-
ing line. The contrast of the orchid
drop skirt that shows in front Is very
effective with the thin texture of the
| chiffon oyerskirt.
The crystal beads Of the oyerblouse
also outline this overskirt. which Is
| picot-edged to give a sheer finish

The disease progresses slowly. and

disappear of its own accord.
This strange malady Is chiefly preva-

The malady seems to be due to

1t behaves like a localized infection and

acute infections like typhoid. pneumonia
and similar conditions points to this
probability.

Trips and Games.

These trips, however. should not be to
fashionable hotel spots where you join
the tired fringe of hangers-on. and can
only enjoy that part of the beach re-
served for picnic parties. There is no
rest in crowds. If this is the only avail
able sort of nearby play-place, then go
very early. enjoy swim and an early
luncheon. then come home before the
real crowd arrives.
Those who like tennis or golf usually
ind it In their vicinity without having
to take trip to get it. The angler
must seek the water, and when found
the joy of the day is complete. None
OF these things are to be found where
the crowd rushes. so they are all de-
ure about day trips is that no matter
how far afield you wander you eventu-

comforts.
All these preliminary pleasures pre-
pare us for the real vacation. And the
two weeks-or perhaps three-do not
seem SO short as when we have had
nothing before and expect nothing to
follow them. In looking for a place to
spend a vacation it is well to remember
that it isn't distance that counts, but
the suita bility for our needs which we
must consider.
If we learn the wise plan of living
one day at a time without borrowing
trouble IL will lead to happiness and
prolong youth indefinitely for those
who conserve it by natural means.
