If you are looking about for a hand
some white dress to wear during
the coming weeks, see the perfectly
charming costumes shown in the
new summer collections that are
fashioned of pique. You will be
thrilled at the sight of them.
The modes that will hold you spell
bound in admiration have yoke or
bodice tops of handsome cutout en-
broidered pique. These openwork

pique formals are intriguingly

are self trimmed and to stress the
idea of pique they boast a corsage
of white pique flowers or that which
is undoubtedly clever, large-petaled
fiorals that are frightened with ap-
piled felt diminutive motifs in vivid
red, blues and yellows.
There is no end to the varied
types of pique shown this season.
Perhaps most popular of all are the
new eyelet embroidered piques so
much in demand for neckwear and
for hats. The gay printed piques
are also a delight to the eye. These
make up stunningly into jackets to
wear with the skirt of white pique,
and they are equally as likable made
up into blouses or especially the
basque-like types. Another proof
positive that a pique stampede is
on for summer is the showing of
gloves and of bags that are tailored

this lovely model is no exception

WHO KILLS A DREAM
They killed my dog, and l forgave,
Even above my comrades grave.
They stole my purse and l forgot
Whether l owned gold once or not.
They plucked the rose from beside my
door;
That, also, I forgave them for;
But now there is something in my
breast
That will not let me sleep nor rest.
Even gray skies had turned blue,
And all things wore a lovely hue;
No cold in snow, no wet in rain,
No hurt in labor, no anguish in pain.
For always, in the hardest day,
That vision of heaven showed the way.
And then met, one certain morn,
A curling lip, a look of scorn,
And then I learned how sharp a spear
They weld, who slaughter with a
sheer.
I can forgive the oaf, the thief, And
he, whose bullets brought me grief;
But small offenses these may seem
Beside the man who kills dream.

IT'S A HOT TINE

At this time of the year we are all
confronted with the problem of how to
keep looking fresh as a daisy when in
reality we feel like yesterdays gar
denia. But, it can be accomplished, at
least to limited degree.
Cleanliness and beauty go hand in
hand and cleanliness is the keynote to
summer loneliness. No matter how
dashingly you may be dressed, in your
crisp new dotted-Swiss and big leg
horn hat, you won't make very allur-
ing impression if your powder is caked
on your nose, your lipstick smeared
beyond the normal line of your mouth.
and your mascara streaked across
your cheeks.
The secret of looking fresh on the
hottest days lies to a great extent in
the proper use of makeup. Few of
us look our best without a bit of arti-
fetal aid. But when using makeup
during hot weather, apply it with a
very light hand. A faint sprinkling
of powder lasts just as long as a bar
rel of flour and certainly is less likely
to cake when your face becomes damp.
A bare tracing of ipstick gives a
much cooler effect than heavier ap-
plicatiOn and will not smudge as
easily. Mascara is best forgotten en-
tirely in the Summer in warmer eli
mates, unless you find some that is
guaranteed waterproof. A light
application of rouge is recommended.
as too much color may add to the hot,
Wilted appearance.

need not stress the Importance of a
daily bath. l would like to mention.

Scalp Massage


Few women know how to massage
the scalp correctly. They simply move
the fingers over the surface of the
scalp when they should move the
scalp as it becomes too tight and oils
that we use to help the hair growth
cannot reach it. But with continual
correct massage, the scalp is loosened
and then the oils penetrate and the
hair grows long, thick and glossy.
Selecting a hat
Be not deceived into buying a hat
because it is the latest style for it
may mean your undoing. have seen
women wear hats that made me feel
sorry for them. They had killed every
good point they had by wearing such
styles. Most faces need much help
from the hat placed above them; only
the young and pretty can afford to
take chances. Sit before your mirror
when next you try on hat and be
frank and truthful with Yourself

then discard it and try another and
another until you do find one that
gives you something instead of taking
away. Be careful when you choose a

Tor assured daintiness. There are a
number of reliable deodorants on the
market. Choose whichever you prefer
and use it regularly according to your
needs. This is of vital Importance to
the fastidious woman. Don't neglect
it.
Your hair, too, should come in for
its share of consideration during these
Summer months. Your head becomes
hot and sticky and consequently the
hair should be washed more frequently
than in the cooler seasons.
Avoid glazing nail polishes in the
Summer. A pale, subdued shade gives
much cooler, more restful effect.
Many manufacturers are putting out
polishes especially designed for Sum
mer use. Try them out and see if the
result is not gratifying.
Try to keep a pleasant frame of
mind. Avoid getting into a stew
literally. Letting little annoyances
put you in a temper just makes you
feel the heat more. Drink plenty of
water. Walk, don't run. Relax.
Don't let anybody make you hurry.
And see if you do not look, and actu-
ally feel, cooler.

Everything that can be consistent
ly styled with hood is being styled
with hood. Most of the hoods are
detachable which makes them emf
nently practical. When you go mo-
toring or stroll on the beach with
snappy wind blowing off the water,
when you go to midsummer night
dance parties a short coat with de-
tachable hood made of camePs hair
and lined with red Scotch plaid as
here illustrated will serve you well.
A coat of this type with its cunning
hood is likewise lovely if carried
