The fine art Of dressing up to ones
age demands dignified, brilliant and
beautiful hats for middle life. Matrons
wear such lovely and flattering bits
Of millinery as the hat at the top of

malines brim in brown. A wreath OF
metallic silk roses interspersed with
grasses livens 1t with rich color. The
hat at the left is a favorite shape
with up-rolling brim and soft crown

shirts for men instead of the unutter-

Persons contemplating the removal
of tonsilS should dismiss from nina
the superstitionS too frequently heard.
Diseased or enlarged tonsils often
spoil voice; removal of the tons1ls
never does; accidental injury of the
pillars of the throat, when tonslls
are adherent to the pillars. may pos
sibly injure a singing voice. Removal
of the tOnSilS has no effect whatever
upon general development of the in
tegrity of the sexual system. Re
moval of diseased or enlarged tonsjls
never diminishes natural resistance 10
infectious disease, but often seems to
increase resistance. No child is too
young; no adult is too old: no season
or time of year is unsafe for this op-
Grafton. l am not denying that sad
accidents have happened and will
happen now and then. in the thou
sands of such operations done. but the
risks and dangers involved in the neg,
lect of the disease condition are in
f1nitely greater than the remote dan
gers connected with such operations.

WAYS to Serve Meals.

Nowadays formal dinners in hotels
or in homes where there are many
servants are always served in the
Russian fashion-that is. nothing is
served from the table nor does the
host have anything to do with the
carving. At such a dinner the roast
meat and other similar dishes are
brought into the dining room by a
servant and placed on the sideboard,
where the butler carves them. The
pieces of meat are then placed on a
long silver dish and they are passed
to the guests from this disf. Some
times when there is no butler the
meats are carved in the kitchen and
brought directly from there on the
long serving dishes
On the other hand. there is the
simpler form Of service-sometimes
called the English style, though it is
no more used in England than here
carves the meat. This. Of course, is
the usual method Of procedure in the
home where servants are few or en-
tirely absent.
In the unmodified forDl of this din
ner the soup would be served from a
tureen by the hostess and either
, handed by a servant or passed around
by the diners. The meat would be
carved by the host and the vegetables
would be placed on the plates either
by the hostess or by some member of
the family, sitting near the carver.
The hostess would pour the coffee
and serve the pudding or pie. Such
a dinner has the advantage of requir-
ing the minimum of service and max
ing the task Of serving dinner with

THE CROWNLESS HAT OF SUMNER
by ANNE RITTENHOUSE.

fashion that has been revived no one
knows. There have been crownless
hats in earlier fashions. This was
when golf was not thought of for
women, when Scotland had the mo-
nopoly on the game for men.
There has been much coquetry be-
mind the crownless hat. Women who
knew their hair was plentiful and
FURNISHED saw reason why they
should hide its light under a bushel
measure. They liked the ornamental
brim shadowing their eyes; they knew
that certain gowns demand a halo of
some sort as finishing touch. Rea-
soning thus. the woman who likes
color. line and structure found in the
hat an artistic means of accentuating
her gown and she has grown to be-
lleVe that her costume is incomplete
without it,
Several years ago there was de-
termined attempt by the milliners to
persuade women to wear crOWnIeSS
turbanS in the evening. The French
TOOK up the fashion with enthusiasm.
The Americans took it up half-heart-
edly-but they gave full acceptance
TO the turban and hat of transparent
georgette crepe. silk tulle. net. The
lace hat has gone in and out of the
fashions, and it so happens that its
comet-like appearance is due this sum
mer. At the present hour the milli-
ners are selling quantities of black
lace hats trimmed with colCred flow
ers for the vacationistS
But the really new hat, the thing
that was launched at garden party
and caught the attention of the young,
Is the immense crOwnleSS hat of straw
trimmed with roses. The sketch
shows 1t in it's picturesque form. The
color is mauve. the roses are pink. the
ribbon is mauve. You can See for
how quantity the roses are
placed and how the long ribbons are
weighted by pink roses.
The gown is of mauve taffeta
spriSged with pink. the neck and
arms left bare. which is not quite in
accordance with garden party fash
ions. The young wearer, knowing that
fact. had an immense scarf of mauve-
colored chiffon which she dropped
when she turned for the artist to
sketch her.
BY the way, there is a strong return
to the fashion of our grandmothers in
this wearing of tight bodices which
are cut low in the neck. are practi-
cally sleeveless. and are intended to
be covered by colOred and transparent
ScarfS.

A Word About Shoes.

We are all grateful for the warm
weather which allows US to go about
with low shoes and free ankles. The
feet and the ankles are much
healthier in summer simply because
of this greater freedom. But there
is one danger to the foot that comes
from wearing summer shoes and
that is the danger of not giving it
proper support.
Pumps are so becoming and so
good looking that their popularity
will probably always continue. but
they are not the healthiest sort of
shoe. They do allow almost per-
feet ventilation Of the foot because
they are loose and light. but they do
not give the foot and ankle the sup
port they should have.
This Is particularly true of the
bigh-heeled pump. which is the ia
vorite choice of almost every woman
because it makes the foot look
smaller. A low-heeled pump Is not
so bad, since 1t allows the weight of
the body to rest on the heel and the
ball of the foot. Probably the ideal
shoe is the oxford with a low or
military heel. This gives a support
around the heel and over the ball of
the foot, and over the instep as well.
The new types of pump that have
straps coming over the instep are.
Evening star., 1921-07-05

however, almost as good and. OF
course much dresSier in appearance.
To he healthy as well as good look
ing, the shoe should fit very snugly
under and around the instep. Cheap
shoes are always made very wide at
this place. SO that the middle part of
the foot is allowed to settle down
without any support. The instep has
to bridge the two places upon which
the weight of the body rests. the
heel and the ball of the foot, and
like any bridge. must carry a great
deal of weight. If it is not sup
ported it will break and the foot
become fiat.

allowed to get on the skin. as it will
stain that also.
The blackhead powder is made by
mixing two ounces of cornstarch, one

Several sorts of iceless refrigera-
tors are used in country places or
camps where the usual refrigerator
is either too expensive or too diff
cult to transport. The simplest sort
depends for it's lowered temperature
upon the constant evaporation Of
water. and is not. therefore. of any
value if the dampness of the atmos-
phcre prevents this evaporation. A
Eight frame of fiue wire netting. with
door of the same construction,
hinged in front. Cotton strips are
then hung all around the frame, COW
ering it completely. and prolonga-
eions of the lower ends of the strips
are kept in Il pail of water. The
cotton draws up the moisture, which.
in evaporating. cools the air, but not
to any very great degree unless the
evaporation is very rapid. Milk and
butter can. however. be kept fairly
cool. under dry climatic conditions.
1t is essential. of course. that the
cotton strips be kept clean.

Removal of Tonsils.

have observed certain throat spe-
cialists who made the most noise
about the Importance Of complete
enucleation or removal Of the dis
eased or enlarged tonsils rather than
mere amputation or cutting off of the
tonsils (tonsillectOmy rather than
tonsillotomy). doing a spectacular
but not very thorough amputation
nevertheless. There is no other medi-
Cal specially in which so many utter
ly incompetent and UNIT young men
are meeting with great (hnancial)
success; l am not referring so much
to the nose and throat specialist. but
to that too numerous and too shallow
class Of specialists" who choose as
a suitable field for their skctchy tai
ents the eye. ear. nose and throat.
The chin, neck, feet and liver they
leave to indiscriminate practice. An
eye doctor has some concern about
the nose, and a nose doctor has some
interest in the eyes, for diseases Of
the one are often found to produce
disturbances of the other organ. But
what reason or excuse an eye doctor
has for bungling ear troubles or why
throat specialist should purport to
be also a specialist in eye diseases
is a problem which I imagine the late
DR.. Kidd or some of his shrewd sue
great war these all-around special
lists sort of blushed and modestly ac-
cepted the title of head specialists"
Which rather left the gynecologists,

nists are honest-to-gOodness all
around specialists in whatever ails a
man inside) and a few other inferior
sorts in a rather embarrassing pre-
dicament.
Whether the tonsils should be re-
moved completely "a rather radical
Opcration) or amputated is an indi-
vidual problem in each case. and the
patients regular physician is far bet
ter fitted to decide than is any special
list. A specialist may be jealous Of

and my" last hundred operations,
but the patient is concerned about
my tonsils.
A local anesthetic is sufficient for
most such operations in adults and in
many children. For those who are
undisciplined and weak in self-control
a general anesthetic is preferable. In
either case it is best to remove both

no servant at all as easy as possible.
A good many persons. however,
who like to have the meat or hsh
carved by the host do not like hav.
ing soup served by the hostess and
do very seriously object to having
the vegetable dishes placed on the
table. They have Russian service to
the extent Of having vegetables
passed by a maid. Sometimes the
hostess Of maidless household,
rather than have the vegetables
served in the old-fa shioned way, will
pass the vegetables herself or have
a daughter of the family attend to
this.
For all practical purposes, how
ever. tho ideal service for the famlly

called English mode-with the excep-
ton possibly of the soup tureen. for
the soup may conveniently be placed

The Skirt Hem.

There was a time when to hang a
skirt was a job that called for expert
workmanship. When the home sewer
or the only moderately skilled seam
stress must needs hang a skirt she
wore out her own ingenuity and the
patience Of the one for whom she
hung the skirt. 1t was next to i'm
possible to hang your own skirt.
That, of course. was in the days
when we made a fetish Of straight
hem. a straight lower edge to our
skirts. That was likewise in the days
when circular and gored skirts were
in vogue. They were particularly
difficult to hang straight.
Now, when we wear, for the most
part, straight skirts which are any
way easy to hang, we may have them
as uneven as we wish. Some OF the
smartest frocks of the summer are
made with irregular hem lines. That
is the fashion.
With these straight, narrow skirts
ljt is possible for most women to turn
an even hem around the bottom
measuring an even number of inches
from the top. That is, if the skirt
length in front is thirty-four inches
a skirt measuring thirty-four inches
all around will hang straight enough
to pass muster. 1t will be little
shorter in back, as skirt may very
well be.
If. however. you have large hips
! here is a very good method for hang.
ing the skirt. Stand against a table
which reaches to the lower part OF
your hips. Hold in your hand piece
of chalk on the edge of the table
Now turn slowly around, holding ths
chalk always on the edge of the ia.
BILE. and marking around the skirt
! 1t is usually better to make the mark
on the wrong side of the skirt. Their
