Animal Dresses One
New Season Feature

This year the animal dresses are the
sensation of the season, according to a
fashion writer in the New York Trib-
une An artist has been called in who
has designed all kinds Of intriguing
and amusing little. beasts that are ap-
pliqued onto simple chemise dresses
with the finest sewing imaginable.
Elephants, tigers, panthers and other
denizens of the jungles come into be-
ing in crepe de chine to bring a new
note into fashion.
All Paris is talking about these Won
derful dresses, and the smartest women
are ordering them quickly, for here at
last is something new that does not in
any way interfere with the slim line
that they really cannot bear to part
with.
An exquisite variation Of this type
of dress might almost be called "A
Midsummer Nights Dream" 1t is In
pale gray-blue crepe de chine, with
waved yoke and deep knee hem OF
palest silver gray that is almost white,
looking like the billowy white clouds
that float across a summer sky. The
waist-line is appliqued with uneven
scallops Of tender pale green, repre-
senting willow trees, and above and be-
low are tall, slender, dark green poplar
trees. The dress looks like an artists
conception OF a tree-bordered lake with
a reflection in the water. The top of
the dress is continued into long six
tnch-Wide ends that tie in loose bows
over the arms to take the place OF
sleeves.
Printed materials form very large
proportion Of the day dresses. There
ire odd pointilliste designs and old
fashioned flower patterns. Colonial in

In Gay, Sheer Party Frocks;
Inexpensive Jewelry Allowed

THE making Of party frocks for the
= little miss is more of a pleasure
than task. No one need go beyond a
list Of half-dOzen materials to make
choice, and the most popular and en-
gaging ones can be counted on the fin-
gers Of one hand-in silks they are
crepe de chine, taffeta or georgette,
and III cottons, wolfe, organdie, batiste,
swiss, net and lace.
Nearly all of these fabrics are
shown in a variety of f1ower-like coll
ors, inswhich pink, maize, blue, laven-
der and green appear in many light
tones. Net and batiste, either plain or
embroidered, and lace appear in white

or cream color, usually worn over a
colored silk slip, but sometimes ribbon
trimmings or sash provide the only
color touch on these sheer frocks.
Many of them have scalloped hem
line, edged with narrow lace, and lace
edged tucks make a fine decoration on
dresses of transparent fabrics. Lace
aouncing, in simple designs, is occa-
sionally used, and needs nothing In the
way of trimming or establishment ex
cept little ribbon, in girdles or bows.
A pretty frQck of this kind appears in
the picture, made Of cream-colored
lace and worn over soft pink slip.
There are ties of pink ribbon on the

worn by women of unquestionable
standing and taste. The fad is here
and will probably continue through
the fall because Of the promised vogue
Of rich embroideries and high colors
in costumes for dress wear.
In the illustration above the bead
and earring set is made Of a compost
ton in brilliant holly-berry red. The
earrings in the center are of jet and
pearl and are worn with charming eff
feet either with an all-white or black
and-white costume. At the right is a
lavalliere of galalith, modelled and
colored from a pure Egyptian pattern.
It provides a pleasing adjunct to the

Bird CAGES.

Department stores as well as the
bird stores and seed stores carry
very fine line Of bird cages. Many Of
them are the simple kind that we have
always been accustomed to, but there
are many that surmount graceful
standards of wicker. The cages
themselves are wicker. These are
very attractive. Besides being orna-
mental they are easily moved from
place to place to accord with the light
and temperature suited to the wel~
fare of the bird.

Urges Simplicity
as Style Slogan
Prominent ''Movie" Actress
Says Personality Should
Be Considered.

In a recent interview with fashion
writer, a prominent movie" actress
said:
Dress is reflection of ones self.
style is personality. For that reason,
/ don't believe in a general, a cut-and-
dried style. Personality is not cut

long-Waisted dress others, the short

the kind that presents them in a poor
way? Style enhances, else it isn't

"The girl earning her own living
should refrain from INDUCING in ex-
IRENE clothes of any sort during bust

These days the girls earning their

would say. They can set the pace, if
they wish. You have the 400 of so
ciety. Why not the 400 of business?
What is the origin of style, after
all? Eve wore a fig leaf. Her modiste
was Nature. Ewes direct descendants
wore fig leaves, too. Then, one day,
one of the visionary descendants
creased her fig leaf on the Sides
That was the beginning of the plait
Naturally, the other descendants
wouldn't permit her to start some
thing that brought all the men to her;
they, too, creased their fig leaves.

When she made her appearance
clad in superb bear skin, adroitly
draped on her slim form, there was
a general gasp from the stunned de-
scendants. ALI the men focked to the

Through the ages, styles have
fuctuated from exaggerated simplicity
to exaggerated lavishness. With in

Cheese.-Take one-half pound of spa

Tuna With Mushrooms.-Take two

half teaspoonful of salt, a few dashes OF
cayenne, a grating of nutmeg, two cup
fuls of mushrooms cut in dice and
cooked in little butter for five min

To the tuna add the mushrooms, cream
and seasonings. Mix and stir in the
butter, simmer for fifteen minutes.

rings and lavallieres add just the
proper touch to the costumes now in
vogue, perhaps because of the recently
awakened interest in the jewelry of
ancient Egypt, and perhaps because
manufacturers have brought out so
many smart new designs in these
pretty trinkets-the mode counte-
nances inexpensive jeweiry.
In any event there is no denying
that beads Of glass, wood and compo-
sition. earrings Of onyx, jade, crystal
and ivory, and ornaments Of various
compositions in brilliant colors are in
creasing in popularity, and what is
far more interesting, they are being

seasonings of salt and pepper as are
liked. After covering the chops, using
care to have them well covered, dip
into egg and crumbs and set on ice.
At serving time, carefully dip them in
hot fat to brown and serve at once.
This sounds like some work, but the
result Is so satisfying that they will
be called for again and again.
Another method Of serving lamb
worth remembering Is:
Fried CrumbIed Lamb.-Take thin
slices of uncooked lamb, or thin rars
roast, dip in seasoned flour, then In
crumbs and fry in deep fat. The meat
is more moist than when cooked in
other ways Thick chops will hardly be
cooked through in this way; only thin
loin chops or cooked meat can be SO
served.
historic Rlce.-Cut two or three
slices Of bacon into small squares, add
cupful of chopped cabbage, cover
and let steam for a half hour. Bring
a cupful of rice to a boil in quart
Of boiling water, then rinse in cold
water and add to the cabbage with
salt, pepper and cupful Of hot veal
broth. Cook until the rice is tender,
adding more broth as needed. Turn
into hot serving dish, add a spoon
full of butter to the center, sprinkle
generously with cheese and paprika
and serve.
Irish Stew.-Take two and one-half
pounds of lamb, eight potatoes, four
turnips, four small onions, quart Of
water and place them in stew pan
In alternate layers of sliced potatoes
and lamb chops or pieces cut from the
neck. Cover with the boiling water,
put on the lid and stew gently until
the vegetables are tender and the
moisture nearly absorbed. Serve hot.

SEPARATIONS and the quaint conventional
small flower-blurred designs that our
mothers loved.
Most of these dresses are made
either with long dropping bow on one
shoulder and another at one side of the
waist or else with a small bow at the
back of the neck and second on the
hips. The back bow, leaning toward
the hustle effect, is very much favored
in this collection.

simple costumes favored for summer.
A great deal of care must be exer-
cised in choosing jewelry OF this char
acter If it is to be worn with the best
effect. Color is most important and
unbecoming shades should be avoided
as carefully as they are in hats and
costumes. Jade earrings, for instance,
can hardly be expected to add charm
to a naturally sallow complexion, and
lavalliere that clashes with the color
of the costume detracts rather than
adds to the effectiveness OF the ems
semble.
