Midsummer Hats
n . m
LACES and nots are more generally
used In making Lata for mid
sttnjmor than (or many seasons
past. They aro fine for remodeling
shapes that havo been worn but aro
avnllnblo for a second or third soason,
as leghorns and mllans. If tho used
shnpo Is discolored or not In perfect
repairs, ruffles of lace, sowed ono row
above another, may easily cover the
upper brim entirely. With a crown or
net draped over a thin Bilk for the
top, no part of tho original shapo Is
vlslblo except tho under brim. Such
a hat Is shown In Fig. 1. Tho lace is
a German val pattern and Is knife
plaited, making ruffles a little less
than two Inches wide. These are slip
BtHchcd to tho brim.
CARE OF THE GIRL'S ROOM
.Trick of Having Apartment Beautiful,
Attractive and Clean Is Simple
and Easily Learned.
A girl can learn nothing more use
ful than the simple trick of having
her own room beautiful, attractive
and clean. It Is not always possible
to have tho furnlturo, but ono can
have a "homey looking," rooni. One
thing Is absolutely necessary, a room
must bo clean, bedspreads, pretty
linen dresser pieces and chair cush
ion's are necessary. Cover tho trunk
(If kept. In the room) with a cretonne
cover, and havo a scrap basket to
hold llttlo odds and ends which must
bo burned. On the table havo well
selected books and magazines. Keep
gay postal cards In a neat postal card
book. Do not decorate the walls with
them, for pretty as they are thoy soon
bang crooked and inako a room lobk
untidy.
Have a placo for shoes, for if any
thing makes a room upsot It is a pair
of tan shoos lying, pigeon-toed, under
tho bed and another pair of black ones
undor tho dresser. Keep tho closet
In order so that when the door Is
opened you will not bo ashamed to
havo nnyono soo. how you keep your
clothes. If you put things away as
you use them you can have a room
like this. Havo ono palm or fern
grace your room, and If It dies get a
new ono.
GRACEFUL LINGERIE DRESS.
Deautlfully embroldere4 la .pale
Iue and white.
Tho wreath of buds and foliage
about the crown at tho baso Is all that
is needed to complete the hat.
A leghorn In Fig. 2 sbowp the under
brim covered to within. an inch and a
half of tho edge with a dotted net in
palo blue. A big puffed crown of tho
net Is draped over a wreath of hy
drangeas, which grown wider at
tho back, where it climbs to the top
of tho crown. Very little of the upper
brim is vlslblo and the crown of this
hat Is almost wholly concealed. On
the crown the not is draped over plain
chiffon a trlflo lighter In tone than
Itself. This is another excellent do
sign for a hat which Is to be remod
eled from one that shows s'gns of
wear. JULIA BOTTOMLEY.
CLEVER USES OF BASKETS
Make Very Pretty Jardinieres by Use
of Cheap Materials and Little
Artistic Skill.
A woman who likes to havo her
houso full of growing plantB In win
ter has discovered the baskets which
can bo bought, for 10 cents mako very
pretty jardinieres, these .baskets'. 'In
old-fashioned willow-wore, come In
dark grcon, deep red nnd brown, am'
any of them are offecttve with tho
green of tho plants, says the New.
York Tribune. If tho baskets are
bought In a 10-ccnt store it Js most
likely that ono will need only to go
to another department to buy for 10
cents tho pans that will exactly fit
them. Defore being filled by the flor
ist tho pans should bo painted grass
green, or to match the basket.
Ope of these baskets may also, with
a llttlo moro manipulation, ho made
to fill tho moro prosaic sphere of n
work-basket, lined with Persian silk
In harmonizing colors. On one sldo
Is a pocket of silk drawn up by nar
row elastic, and small bowB holding
In placo an emery ball, a bodkin, n
glove mender and n needle book- make
a pretty decoration iong the edgo.
Tho outer edgo Is trimmed with a
modest llttlo fancy fringe.
Newer In stylo Is tho brown one,
wim yellow added for brightness
Thoro is a mat In the bottom cut from
cardboard and covered' with brown
Bilk, which is fnstened to tho under
side with glue. Tho llttlo silk curIi
Ion, which Is of tho tomato order,
measures four ' and a half Inches
across. Both mat and cushion are
held in placo by two Rtitches r strong
silk that go through tho bottom of
the basket. A yard and a half of rib
bon three and n quartor inches wide
will bo required to hold tho spoolB
and to mako tho bow, A quarter of
a. yard of a wider Tlbbon In tho samo
shado will do (or the cushion.
Slip-Over Blouses.
Blouses o( silk or linen or wool or
satin or.nongeo that slip over tho head
and require no buttoning up back or
front aro tho latest. They aro very
dainty In appearance and complete,
needing no gulmpo. There Is a little
opening down a (ew inches in front
nud tho neck has a tube for a draw
Btring of silk, which ties In front and
ends In tasselB. Somo aro finished
at tho neck with a net frill. Tho
sleeves are In kimono style and there
is any variety of plain, striped aud
fancy silks nnd other materials.
Crocheted Cuff Links.
Cuff links for wash waists may bo
made from two crochet buttons, sewed
together like tho parts of a dumbbell
link- with a strong thread loop of the
right length, which is thon button
holed over and over. These links will
wash, aro pretty and aro not easily
lost, besides being economical.
Chamois Trlmmlnna.
An odd but beautiful evening gown
is of chamois colored tulle, with em
broideries worked on real cbanioU
leather in Japaneso style with Ilosi
silks. Tho designs are chrysanthe
mums in lovely shades of yellow, gray
and drab, and here and there a dra
gon worked in silver thread.

HOT WEATHER DISHES.
Fruit drinks, salads and meat sub
stitutes are dishes wo- are looking for
during tho hot days of summor.
Thoro is no drink which quite takes
the place of tho old-fashioned lemon
ade, and nono noxt to puro cold water
which qltcnchos tho thirst bo effectu
ally. A very nice drink may be. pre
pared from n lemon and two oranges,
for a quart of water. Ilrulso a bunch
of mint, and let It diffuse In the Juice
for nn hour or two, then romove and
add tho water; sugar to tusto and a
sprig of mint and a ollce of lemon and
orange to each glflBS. .
A delicious dessert is ono Iri which
musk melons, cut in halves and seeds
removed, aro placed on paper dollies,
on n small plate. Fill these fruit
cups with ice cream and garnish with
a few piece's of canton ginger to elm
ulato seeds. This Is a truly delightful
dessert.
Another equally delicious dessert,
though not as beautiful In appoaran'ce.
Is grape Juice parfnit.
Doll a third of n cup of grapo Juice
nnd three-fourths of a cup of sugar
until It hairs whon dropped from a
spoon. Pour in a lino stream upon
tho whites of two eggs bontcn stiff.
To ono and a fourth cupfuls of double
cream add a half cup of grape Juice
and the Julco of a lemon; beat until
firm. Fold the two mixtures together
nnd mold. Cover securely and pack
in equal measures of salt and ice.
Whon unmoldcd sprinkle with chopped
"pistachio nuts.
When serving watermelon, cut the
melon crosswise and ubo a large spoon
to cut out cones of the melon, remov
ing the seeds befqro serving. A grape
leaf may be sod for u dolly on each
pinto.
The slmplo French dressing ts so
easily made and so much moro pala

dressings, It should bo'oftotfur on our

The great reason that so many peo
ple object to olive oil Is no doubt be
cause they have been served with an
inforlor oil. Thore is no economy in
purchasing a poor oil for tho table.
Olive nil should have a sweet, nutty
flavor and odor, and a. slightly, green
ish color. "

THE SUNDAY DINNER,
The Sundny dinner In most homes

dinner has no especial charm, far she
needs the day of rest as much as any
member of tho family. Ono may have
a roast that has been cooked tho day
before and reheated for Sunday, or a
veal loaf may bo prepared and served
cold. Tho salad may bo nil ready to
