Unity as the proper headdress- in the
eighteenth century. Our forefathers
wore It when they fought the revo-
luton, and no less did the Nenetians
wear it in the doge's court when they
received the turbaned Persians. only
the courtiers of Venice wore it en-
bellished with metallic lace. The
women at the French ball pulled it
down jauntily over their foreheads,
often hanging black lace veil from
one corner to another. letting 1t
droop of the face to show. the eyes
and nose but concealing the mouth.
You saw this fashion side by side
with the other trick affected by the
women in Persian costume of wear
ing a short veil that hid the eyes
and nose but left the chin and
mouth bare.
The tricorne of velvet or of velvet
trimmed with metallic embroidery
has been taken over by the. milliners
as highly desirable addition to their
offering for autumn. 1t is made not

Summertime foods are healthier

weather we eat all sorts OF things
that are good for us. In the winter
we are apt to make our compilations

worst crime we can commit In the
summer is to drink too much iced
water or soda water. For that rea.

Much has been said about Persian
embroidery as trimming for autumn
millinery. and this is something of
which we shall doubtless see more. For
the nonce however, the Persian .tur-
ban is more often wrought in velvet.
while the Persian embroidery is best
displayed on the frock or warp. The
Jacket that made it's appearance the
last days of the races and that is
much admired here is made of mate
rial that resembles elaborate Persian
embroidery. Sometimes actual Persian
. embroidery appears on these coats.
but more often they arc trimmed with
fur, Foulards printed in Persian col
ors and Persian designs have also
called forth much admiration.

Drying Peaches and Apples.

The fruits which the average house,
wife oftenest chooses for drying are
peaches and apples. There are three
simple ways OF drying fruits: 1, in a
commercial dehydrator: 2, in the
strong sun of hot climate; 8, in your
stove oven, on trays.
The last named way is that chosen
by most women. "A wire rack re-
sembling fine-meshed window
screen may be used for oven trays.
or a rack made of cheesecloth tackled
onto a wooden frame will answer.
The drying rack should be set on the
oven shelf rather than on the floor Of
the oven. so as to permit free cir
cuIation of air beneath the drying
food. The oven door should be lett
ajar to prevent the temperature be-
coming too intense. The oven heat
at first should be very mild. but after
an hour or two it should be slightly
increased.
Although a great many housewives
dry their fruits each year without the
help Of an oven .thermometer. this
scientific little device is. nevertheless,
a tremendous help. If you would like
to buy, one and do not know Of q store
that sells oven Thermometers, write
to me, inclosfng a stamped and self
addressed envelope, and l Will tell

To Dry Apples.-It is not advisab Bile
to dry early varieties OF apples, De-
cause they lack flrmness OF texture.
The apples must be pared. and .cored,
tn en- sliced in rings one-fourth inch
thick, or ouartered. tThe rings dry
more quickly than the quarters) Ar
range the slices in single layers on
the oven trays and place these trays
in your oven for about four hours.
If you wish to try sun-drying. place
the trays out of doors in strong sun
shine and bring the trays In each
| night. Sun-drying in this way US
ually requires three or four days.
Whichever way you dry the fruit,
however, 1t should be thoroughly dry
before you consider the process On

pressed together firmly Into ball

The Summer Girl.

The summer girl is always pretty.
do not exactly know why. 1t may
be because she is living o healthy,
outdoor life. 1t may be because she
has temporarily thrown off the wor-
ries Of office work or family respon-
sibility. 1t IS quite likely because of
her cool. dainty dresses. which give
US a glimpse of her sunburnt thrG +
and her rounded, healthy arms. "a
may be because she Is on a vacation
or simply because summer is always
the happiest time. And 1t may be. as
friend suggested, because the OBJ.

and views tho world and his fellow
men and women through rose -colored
spectacles. f,rs
SO there you have any number Of
reasons and you may take your
choice. but the fact IL undeniable
that the summer girl Is pretty. One
observant feminine friend said to me
that women. as q rule, dress better
In summer than in winter. Summer
clothes cost less, that's the obvious
reason. Fifteen dollars does not pur-
chase much in the way Of a wool

and middle of 1915. After being
turned back the year before at the
Marne, where nothing else save hu-
man bravery, expressed in the words,
They shall not pass" saved the day,
the Germans in April. 1918, were in
the full cry of victory. They felt sure
that Paris was in their grasp, the
channel ports would follow, and then
the great governmental fabric of the
world would collapse in ruins. with
the Hun master of all.
Only those who went through the
horror Of that campaign, with its
wretrhed carnage of suffering. its
water soaked trenches, its blood
stained fields. its desperation and de-
spair, can ever realize ,onehalf of
what it all meant. Heroes stalked
blinded through the vast melee TO die
and sleep in unmarked graves: life
ebbed out of thousands fighting to

came back again. the soft sun would
shine once more through the smoke
wrapped air and flowers blossomed
again above the SCARED faces of those
who slept.
TT was out Of all this terror of suf-
fering that one great poem was
born, perhaps the greatest poem Of
the world war. and certainly the most
widely read and quoted:
In Flanders Aelds the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row row.
That mark onr place; and in the sky
The larks. still bravely singing. ny
Scarce heard amid the guns below.
We are the dead. Short days ago
We lived. felt dawn. saw sunset glow.

/ Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands throw
The torch; be yours to hold high.
II ye break faith with who die
We shall not Sleep. though poppies grow
/ In Flanders fields.
The poem was written by DIR. John
| AfcCrae, who was living in Montreal.
Canada. when the war broke out. but
| who was drawn into the hottest OF its
activities when his country called for
help. His dressing station was right at
the front in the terrible fighting in
Flanders, 40 that he saw the worst OF
the awful suffering through which the
allied armies passed in those sinister
months of 1915. He witnessed the
steady. onward march Of the enemy
the almost hopeless heroism Of his COM
rades to stay the German pressure; saw
the warm earth hide it's shame in the
scarlet glory Of the poppy; and out OF
this narrowing experience this grea1

velvet with silk fringe of the same

While turbans and tricornes have

said over and and over again that the
wide -brimmed hat would not be
