it may have two large tuckS encircling It. If further ornamentation Is de sired, sew the tucks in a long running stitch with red worsted and trim the neck and sleeves in the same way.
 Neither WOrSted nor Organdie is a new trimming for gingham dresses, but evidently designers have not been able to think of anything prettier to take their place, for we have them used more profusely than ever this year. This Is especially true of or gandie. Quantities of organdie frills, both gathered and plaited, are seen.

CINCHAM IS THE
 STYLISH FABRIC
Besides Being Fashionable Ma teriaI, Price Is Much Lower
 Than in the Past.
GAY RED AND WHITE CHECKS
Brighter CoIors to Supplant the Dull Shades in Silk Dresses Is In. terestng Note in tha
 Paris Modes.

"The best thing l can tell you about ginghams," said the head of a highly successful firm in America import ing materials for wash dresses, "1S that they are the best thing in the world. No other cotton dress fab ric approaches them in volume of sales this year."
 Every summer wardrobe that makes any pretension whatever of approach ing completeness should include sev- eral gingham frocks. This Is good news, because gingham has much be- sides fashion to recommend il. No woman is averSe to buying inexpensive clothes that are in the height of fash ion, and this is one of the things that still may be said of the gingham frock. The price of gingham is now considerably lower than it has been for two or three years.
 The prettiest dresses of this fabric are simple, the beauty of such dress lying il the selection of colors and perhaps an unusual bit of trimming.
 Checks Brighten Landscape.
 It might be expected, with the pres ent craze for dull, black silk dresses, that black and white cottons would be chosen. But fashion, ever contradict 0ry, says no. In wash fabrics we must be gay. Black and white cOttons had their innings last year. Now their place is usurped by red and white checks. There is a goodly showing of brown and white as we'll as many greens, but reds are most prominent.
 According to an Old-time saying, an individual is as old as he or she feels, and no woman could help feeling very young in these fresh, crisp, wash dresses that in design, material and coloring are very like those she wore in her schoolgirl days. Except for the size it would be next to impossible to distinguish them from little girls dresses.
 The full skirt which stalks so threat eningly among the new clothes finds a logical place in the cotton dress The slim silhouette is retained by dress makers catering to the women who really know most about dress, and who always demand beauty in their clothes, but the full skirt is among us. It is not nearly so beautiful in model of cloth as those which follow the natural lines of the figure, but it is much more suitable to the dress of wash material than the peasant chem ise.
 Youthful Model, Organdie Trimmings.
 A charming dress for warm sum- mer mornings may be made of red and

white checked gingham in the follow ing way: Cut the bodice portion just like chemise dress with kimOno sleeves and gather full skirt to this slightly below the normal Waistline. The neck may be squared or round and finished with a bias fold of bright red organdie uneierlaid with one of white. The sleeves may be cut off at any length desired, although rather short ones would be attractive, and these should be edged with Organdis in two colors to match the neck.
 Now make a narrow belt of the red organdie or of the gingham if you like, and line it with white, allow ing the white to show at either edge in the form of a piping. Ornament this with two tiny stiff flat bows of the red, faced with white. Tie the gir- dle in the back, permitting the stiff little bows to come at either side of the front. The skirt may be plain oi

the front and back than it is at the sides, but any plain skirt may be used with bodice such as this.
 Embroideries are not lacking on wash dresses, but they are reserved more especially for models of linen or crash. A straight1ine frock of nat ural color crash is most attractive with heavy embroideries in brown.
 The skirt portion was embroidered with heavy threads of mercerized brown cotton from the hem to about the knees; it was a. chemise dress. The bottom of the sleeves were orna mented In like manner, and so was a narrow collar which stood straight up around the neck, but turned down in the front, as the dress was slashed and folded back to form revers
 Dress That Harks Back to 1880.
 A new way of using worsted em- brOidery on a linen frock, and also of obtaining a good deal of color, appears in a demure gray chemise dress. It has an apron tunic in the front only, attached to the waist portion at a low line. The
 
 of bright colored linen in novel shapes stitched to the dress with worsted of contrasting hue.
 As variation of the embroidered trimming, straight chemfse frocks of heavy white linen-the chemise model Is used for the heavier fabrics-are trimmed straight down front and back panels with points of red and white checked gingham. The gingham also Is stitched in pointed effect around the neckline, which is somewhat high but a shallow oval in form, and around the sleeves.
 The short cap sleeve, which is just little puff, is used in summer dresses of the lighter materials, such as voiles and crepes. It also makes an occa- fer fabrics, but, although the dress it. self is of a heavier cotton, the 1880 sleeve Is of a thinner material. For instance, a quaint looking dress of lowered chintZ, made with a straight bodice and full-gathered skrit, has puff sleeves of white organdie, the cuffs of which are stitched with red worsted Further touches of the Organdie ap- pear in the form of picoted ruff1es en- circling skirt and deep, round neck.
 Modes of Hairdressinq.
 The modes of hatrdressing in Paris indicate vogue for smooth and un- eurled arrangements of the hair, as in opposition to the much-waved and puffed coiffure which has been worn for several years. The exaggerated psyche knot low down on the head is much affected by EngliShwOmen as well as Parisiennes. Although the hair Is arranged not only with plain ness, but apparently with precision, most fantastic headdresses are worn.
 The large Spanish comb is retained. The newest combs are of ivory rather than shell. These white combs are most effective. For those who do not like an all-White comb they may be had with beautiful enameling in color we'll as with settings of precious stones.
 The weirdest Of feather ornaments gre chosen for the hair. Bands of the costly and forbidden paradise may completely encircle the head or plum age of the common barnyard fowl may maginable.

FRUITS" OF WAR
 NOT ALL BITTER

New York, July 22-The fruits of war are not all bitter, says the lnterna- tional Investor issued by local broker age firm in referring to the American money now being invested in Europe.
 Ut will probably surprise many peo- pile, to know that the German city bonds American investors," says this publica- ton. "The reason for this probably lies in the big profit possibilities due to the low rate of exchange, coupled with the practically unlimited resources that macs the degree of safety enjoyed by these bonds unusually high. In this con nection it must be borne in mind that most of the German municipalities own and operate valuable real estate and the public utilities, both of which furnish a source of revenue not available to the cities of other countries. The British bonds are also meeting with a growing popularity
 rIt begins to appear as if we in Amer ica have made up our minds to profit by the lesson taught us by foreign investors immediately following the civil war, when the much depreciated American dollar was purchased in huge quantities, in the form of industrial and railroad bonds, by the British, French, Belgium and German people.
 If this is true, we can safely feel that the fruts of war are not all Dit ter"

HIS FEARS REALIZED.

A northern man in an optician' $ shop in Nashville overheard an anus ing conversation between the pro prictor of the establishment and 2n aged darky who was just leaving the place with a pair of new spcCtaCleS.
 As the old fellow ncared the door his eye lighted upon an extraordinary looking inst Strument COnSp1CuOuSly placed upon a counter. The venerable negro paused for several moments to gaze in opcn-mouthed wonder at this Eing, the like of which he had never seen bcfore After a long struggle with his curiosity he was vanquished. Turning to the Optician, he asked:
 "What Is it, boss?'
 "That Is an opthalmotonomcter," replied the optician, in his gravest manner.
 "Sho," muttered the old man to himself, as he backed out of the door, his eyes still fastened upon the curi- ous looking thing on the counter FESho, dat's what l was afearcd 1t Magazine.

 Toasted Cheese Sandwiches.-Cut rounds of bread, spread with butter, then with grated cheese which has been well seasoned and mixed with cream to the consistency for spread ing.
