time cottonS, with skirts long and
backs cut low; they may be as casual
as seersucker and plaid gingham. or
as formal as marquiSette and mousse
line.
There is a noticeable tendency for
the skirt fullneSs to start much higher.
although the silhouette slim to the
knee, with flare from that point, is
still good. However, some of the thin.
summery materials lend themselves
particularly well to graceful fullness
starting at hip length.
Many of these very wide skirts have
no trimming at the hem, while those
more fitted. as far as the knee, are
much beruff1ed from knee to hem. The
wide ripple skirts have narrow under
skirts of taffeta or other heavy silk.
so that the figure retains a certain
slimneSs in spite of the bouffant effect.
Both Of the frocks sketched today
have skirt fullness which begins at the
hips; one does it by means of shirring
and the other by hip yoke. The
black and white striped marquisette is
very stunning with its black velvet
sash and large corsage of field
flowers In bright blue, yellow, red and
white. It is a very smart Summer
dance dress equally well suited to ex-
treme blonds or brunettes, but not so
good for those of medium coloring.
The embroidered mousseline in shell
pink over pink slip has a very lacy
effect and the neckiine is especially
new looking with its square cut and
rounded collar and little sleeves of
plain material. Two bouquets of tiny
little flowers carry out the dainty, del
icate feeling of this frock.

General Observations Keeping With the Tide Of Feminine Activities
Freshness
In Flowers
Necessary

THE fashion for wearing artificial
= flowers has returned with full
vigor. 1t Is a pretty style. The gay
little boutonnieres dress up a costume,
giving it a chic that is attractive
When the costume Is dark, the flow-
ers chase away any somberneSs, or if
the blossoms are white, as Is the
| favorite gardenia, they relieve the
quiet color. A frock that is not new
can be given the desired up-to-date
appearance by these little nosegays.
It is only when the flowers have the
freshness Of newly-plucked blossoms
that they succeed in adding smart
ness to any costume. So beware Of
having frayed edges, any slight soil,
or crumpled petals, and guard against
the wire in stems being visible. 1t
is the perfection of naturalneS that
is sought, and any one of the above
features will be disillusioning. Also
there is tawdry element, which is
reprehensible in any part of the cos
tuning, that is Immediately self-evi-
dent when flowers show lack of care
in details.
Manicure scissors are just the
things to trim off ravelings in flowers
or foliage. Be sure the scissors are
sharp and will make distinct clip
pings, just enough to take off the
threads without encroaching on the
perfect parts. Flowers can be steamed
just enough to soften the stiffness of
the sizing without injury to them.
While they are flexible smooth out
unWanted creases and set the petals
in their former realistic curves. Re-
wind the wire stem coverings, and
secure about the wire with tiny
touches of glue. Or, few invisible
stitches may be taken in refractory
coverings.
Wiping petals off with a damp cloth
will frequently remove dirt which ad-
heres lightly. Shake the flowers
briskly before applying the damp
cloth. for it may be dust only that
dulls the petals. Retinting petals can
be done to restore faded flowers to
their original colors. This is quite in
accord with the making of expensive
artificial flowers The French flower
makers color petals exquisitely by
hand, making marvellous blends of
tones. So do not be afraid of color
ing your faded flowers. Use as dry
color as you can so that the sizing
in materials will not be diminished
Use tints. not strong colors. and be
sure to have them match those of
the flowers and foliage.

THE new two-piece themes offer
freshness and variety in the
matter of single-breasted clos
i ings. loose kimono sleeves,
rever necklines and straight,
slim skirts.
This model has caught the casual
note that characterizes the late
fashion arrivals from England and
France. Looser lines. greater SIM
plicity, finer material. interest in
belts and buttons-these are the
things that count in the new Summer
styles.
Plain. smooth shoulders spell So
phistication in frocks for daytime.
This design because it has a jacket
quality increases in value to the
woman who plans spending half her
time in town and the other half in
the country.
Armholes are dropping and their
newest treatment is the kimono one.
Gussets are incorporated in this dress
at the under-arm curve, as pre-
caution against tearing the seam.
They are inconspicuous and easy to
make.
Daytime skirts remain slim, with
reserve fullness supplied by pleats
at the hemline. Many frocks are now
available, made with one skirt and
two blouses. both in the same design,
but of different colors. The idea is
good for those who like frequent
changes.
All types Of materials are suitable
for this dreSs-silks, woods, linen,
Summer velveteen, synthetic crepes,
tweed and cotton. The belt is a pur-
chased one and to look right must
match the color of the buttons.

in cities. for 1t does not seem to

atmosphere that interferes with
the growth of many other trees.
1t seems to have developed no

rs A dog worth more to man than
a wife? This interesting point Is
raised by correspondent of this
woman-hater, due to the fact that
he has been obliged to live with one
the greater part of his life, his youth
having been spent with female rela-
tives and his middle years with a
wife whom he married in moment OF
weakness. and also because he has
witnessed the agonies of other poor,
suffering husbands.
This has led him to the conclusion
that dogs are more desirable than
women as life partners. Further, he
contends that even the Government
takes this view of the relative value
of the two.
"EOR," asserts this cynic. when
L man gets married. the marriage
license costs him IS, or even less. In
some States 1t is as low as $3.50, and
it is good for so years or more, as 1t
never has to be renewed. Hence, If
a woman lived to celebrate her golden
wedding her husband would have to
pay only 10 cents per year, or maybe
even less than / cent year. for her
company. But if man takes out a
dog license 1t costs him 81 every year,
and if he keeps dogs for so years 1t
will cost him 5000.
Therefore, it costs 40 times as
much for the privilege of keeping a
dog as it does a wife, which shows
that society, as we'll as the courts,
recognizes the fact that a dog Is Of
more value to man than his wife is.
A ND consider the other advantages
"A that a dog has over a wife to
man. A dog meyer invites her
mother to come for weeks at time
visiting. A dog never comes around
when a man is in trouble and, with a
gloating expression on her face, says:
I told you so.' Neither does a dog
ever accuse a man of having affairs
with strange women, or tell him of
his faults for his own good.

buries his face in his hands and wishes
