busters for Warm Days

Women always want them when the
mercury scars.
They afford ample protection for
light gowns and suits, yet are light
and comfortable for hot weather.
There are busters of linene, in the
natural color, busters of mohair in
black, blue or gray, and coats of silk
pongee.
If one wishes cape she may have
one in natural colored linen, to take
the place of the buster.
And these are generously cut, prac-
|tical coats of Palm Beach cloth,
planned for the purpose.

String of Beads
and a Costume

Into the limelight of general fash
ions have come the strings of beads
once confined to the Bohemians The
counters where these things are dis
played look like veritable supply plants
for the harem section, and an unedu-
acted observer would wonder where
they would find their place. But they
are really necessary to certain types
of dress, and the woman who wears
them artistically finds that she has
achieved something
Beads, it must be understood, can.
not be added Unfortunately TO any
costume without thought of its de.
sign or trimming, for if they are pro-
miscuously planted they become as
gingerbread. On the other hand, if
they are a thing by themselves thew
can become the making of an entire
costume. Their color must be studied
with relation to the gown ,and the
person which they are destined to
adorn. Their shape and size must be
taken into consideration.
An Example of Discrimination
For instance, there was seen at a
smart restaurant at a nearby waterir g
place the other day a costume of
black satin worn with dropping
black hat wreathed in yellow forsythia.
A long string of light amber beads
was worn with this, and that was the
only trimming to be seen. 1t was a
striking combination and a real exam
pie of the discretion with which beads
should be used in relation to a cos
tune
Beads for belts have also taken a
prominent place, and the same truth
holds good with them-they are only
really good when they become the one
note of adornment of the costume, and
then there is nothing which can take
their places.

Normal Yield

Agriculture, says:
Most farmers know from expert

ought TO produce with the usual modes
of farming, with normal weather con.
ditions and without unusual loss from
disease, insects, or other adverse in
fiuences. The yield per acre under
such favorable, though not extraord-
nary conditions, would be a normal
yield which is more than an average

Some Good Table Fowls

Few Americans know the taste of
thoroughly good table poultry and /!
mentioned three especially good
breeds that are considered by epicures
as being prime for discriminating
tables.
l have few more that / consider
worthy of mention that l will talk
about now. The first breed that comes
to mind is the Sussex This breed is
a very old one, although but recently
brought into prominence. It has been
called the "Four-Toed Dorking" in its
home country, Sussex in England,
because it resembles the Dorking il
so many ways This breed can be
had in various colors; white, light red
and speckled, the latter being the most
sought-after in the United States, and
is the only tri-colored fowl generally
known about. These fowls take on
fat easily, not the sort of fat of the
Plymouth Rock, but more full flesh
which is tender and juicy. And, by
the way, this taking on of weight in
meat, is the inherent property of all
good table fowls. The Dorking, the
Houdan, the Faverolle, La Fleche and
the Crevecoeur all have this common
tendency which mark them as being
of especial importance for the tahIa
The Faverolle, a French breed, is
said to be the most heavily feathered
fowl of them all, and in England has
made quite record as a winter layer,
probably owing to immunity to eli.

role as a breed has not made any
wonderful marks in this country as
a layer If these fowls have made
such record, that fact has not been
noised about to any extent. But they
are good eating fowls at any age
which brings them into this classic
cation.
The French seem to have made
more of an effort to produce or secure
good table fowls, probably because
eating is of such importance to them,
and in addition to the Houdan and
Faverolle they have two other splen-
did breeds, one La Fleche, little seen
in this country, is a remarkably COOL
table fowl and the other, the Creve
occur, is about on par with it. This
latter breed looks more like a solid
black Houdan, with four toes, although
much larger. They have on feature
that should commend them to people
with gardens that are unfenced, and
that is that they seldom scratch.

them to greater or lesser extent

To Wear with Sport Suits

When furs are laid aside one wears
@ smart scarf.
And to go with the ever-popular
sports suits the new camePs hal:
scarfs seem especially intended.
They come all the way from Eng
land, and very fine, very soft and
very light of weight.
Tan is the most fashionable color
at this minute, and these scarfs are
made with fringed ends and very gene
rous as to width.
The tan, one must add, is but the
predominating color, for the scarfs
are finished at the ends with two
color block designs.

girl as a member of her~own family.
Another girl that the queen has al
most adopted is Miss Anne Shaw Of
Philadelphia, who has been in Ru-
mania with the American Red Cross
or more than year. Miss Shaw came
to know the Queen through her Red
Cross work, and also Princess Eliza
beth with whom she has struck up a
fast friendship. The Queen heartily
approves of the friendship, and when

might, confessed that she had been

Rumania'S Queen
Toiler and Optimist

Queen Mary of Rumania displayed
her business ability and her faith in
her country by putting through an inn
portant deal in locomotives not long
in sad need of the new engines. There
were American, French and English
agents here to sell locomotives, but
for money only. None of them had
enough faith in Rumania to sell them
for anything except for cold, hard
cash.
Then the President of an American
concern who had been selling locomo-
tives to Poland came 10 Rumania. An
interview was arranged between him
and the Queen, whxpresented such a
strong argument orfslhe future of her
country and it's resources that the
hard-headed business American agreed
to furnish locomotives and rolling
stock and take in payment Rumania 5
national bonds.
The Queen believes in Rumania and
she knows how to convince others,
because she has been over every foo1
of its ground. During the days that
she was Princess she travelled by train
and by automobile and on horseback
until she had come to know all of the
resources of her country and a great
many of its people.
Here is what she said:
THE Queen of small country.
Those who are accustomed to see
rulers of a great land can little under
stand what it means. 1t means work
and anxiety and hope and great toll
ing for small results. But the field
is large and if the heart is willing great
is the work"
Queen Mary has a reputation as a
writer and now that the war is over
she has resumed her literary work she
abandoned when the war began.
Whatever may be the value of what

write in the morning before l begin
my days work, but Interruptions do
not disturb me. If have to see some
one I go back to my desk and am
able to take up the unfiished sentence
where l left off Part of my writing
is in the nature of journal, which l
kept throughout the war, but it is of
such an intimate nature that much
OF it cannot be published until long
after I am dead"
The most admired work of the
Queen, aside from her fairy stories,
is little book entitled my Country"
wherein, in a casual impressionistic
manner the queen tells of her travels
through the country, describing the
life of the peasants, their desire to
own the soil, their willingness to work
hard, the quaint costumes of the wo
men, the curious architecture of the
churches and houses, the beautiful wo-
men of the country and the charm
of the winding, dusty roads.
For all her beauty and fine clothes
the Queen is not afraid of dirt. This
fact is shown in her boundless admira
ton for the dusty plains and dustie9
roads of her country. One day during
the German occupation of Rumania
she was riding along one of the dusty
roads of Bessarabia when she saw anil
