    For Late Summer
FORESHADOWING already whnt
wo may expect for tho coming
fall season, tho hats for lato
summer lndlcato that we shall have
many bonnet-llko shapes, tall crowns
und largo hats few In number as com
pared to small and medium-sized
modols.. Outing hats for July and Au
gust are of felt In white or light
colors, such as Alice blue, champagne"
md the season's beautiful pink tones.
These are cither all felt or felt and
hemp combinations and are trimmed
with scarfs, bands, soft draperies of
chiffon and wings or ribbon. They
are exqulslto and, it must be con
fessed, fragile in tho matter of keep
ing clean. L)ut they remain present
able for some time and aro cleanod
with fine sandpaper. Everywhere the
floating white veil accompanies these
:ool-Iooklng creations of tho milliner.
Tho veils are of laco, in sevdral va
rieties, in coarse silk nets and in
chiffon. They aro all washable and
add immensely to tho attractiveness
of the hats and the complexion, for
they are worn either over or off tho
face.
More pretentious millinery is shown
AFTERNOON DRESS.
Peacock blue Irish poplin Is chosen
for our model. Tho plain skirt haB
a row of satin-covered buttons sewn
part way up tho seam at right side of
front
The bodice has a yoko of white
tucked ninon over peacock blue; a
braided or fancy silk waistcoat sur
rounds tho yoke. Tho sides aro of
material; they aro carried down over
tho top of sleeves, which have fancy
cuffs edged with nlnon frills.
Hat of peacock blue Btraw with a
puffed crown of nlnon to match, and
trimmed below by a wreath of pale
pink roses.
Materials required: 4 yards pop
lin 42 inches wldo, A yard tucked
nlnon, H yard silk 20 inches wide,
Apron Pockets.
Bow the pocket of your apron on
tho inside, a llttlo in from tho right
hand edge. Nothing will drop from
It then, it will stay clean and n great
deal can bo carried in it without
snowing any ugly fullness.
In the trimmed models pictured here.
Ono of the cone-shaped hats, of
which we may oxpect to see numbera
during tho fall season, is shown In
tho illustration. It is trimmed with
a full ruche of silk "pinked" at tho
edges and laid in quadruplo box-plalt-lngs,
Velvet fruit, liko plums, cher
ries or even apricots, set in theso
nichlngs make a trimming chic and
striking. Velvet fruit, In fact, Is de
veloping so much popularity that it
will probably stay with us and add a
charming noto to winter millinery,
and hats made of felt in tho shapo
pictured here aro qulto llko to bo
trimmed in the samo way.
A model of black hemp, with a mod
eratoly tail' crown, 1b also shown. It
Is calculated to pavo the way for ox
tremoly high-crowned models, or
crowns trimmed extremely high,
which Paris says, are to bo a voguo
for winter. This sott-crowned model
makes use of tho feather band about
the brim odgo and is finished with a
cluBtor of upstanding plumes at tho
back. An ornament made of plaited
ribbon finishes the trim, poised on tho
crown at tho right side.
TO PREVENT SAGGING SKIRTS
Have Garment Properly prepared Be-
foro It Is Turned Up to
Be Hemmed.
Summer dress skirts when mado ot
thin material will always sag after
thoy aro hemmed and finished if caro
1b not taken to prevent it. A good way
to do is to haVo tho skirt sagged first
before it is turned up to be hemmed
This is dono after tho skirt Is com
pletely finished excepting tho hem,
from tho band to the final fitting and
tho last hook and oyo Is in Its place.
The skirt Is now hung in a closet or
bettor still, put upon n full-length
dre3s form raised from the floor by
placing It on a box, and tho bias por
tions of the gores weighted so they
will stretch to tho fullest extent.
After sevoral days of this strain th
material will have sagged to its full
est extent, and tho hem may bo meas
ured and turned up. Anything will
do for weighing. Tho smallest weights
from tho kitchen scales, put In tem
porary coverings of muslin and pin
ned on, are excellent Any other small
objects of uniform heaviness will do
for other weights. .
A Curious Fashion.
Tho latest models in skirts or in
costumes with attached skirts and
waists show tho skirt decidedly Bhort
or In front than at tho back, a dlffor
enco which, in tho walking length, li
very noticeable. Even ballroom gowm
are cut on the came linos.
"Shows the embroidery on the fron
of her socks and hides tho darns It
the heels," said a male critic of on
of theso gowns, and his cruel remark
accurately describes tho stylo.
Why such an untidy fashion shoulc
have come from Paris at a season
whon all tho crudencsa of spring hai
usually been eliminated from Its gar
mcnts is a puzzle, but hero it Is, nev
crtheleBB, and many frocks that would
otherwise have been graceful havo
been marred by It
Sashes.
Ono of tho greatest aids in varying
the whito summer gowns Is tho uso
of tho sash, which is the stylo as
much as ever.
The velvet sash of tho winter Is
superseded by the pastel colored
moires and tho llghtor chiffon ruches,
black in color, as an edging, this fin
ished with black chenlllo fringe and
flowers of tho samo at tho ends, somo
being decorated with wreathB of gold
roses ut tho ends in place of tho other
decoration,
Theso are come of tho newer fan
cies that seem at once to becomo pop
ular, as they are shown In somo of the
most exclusive shops.

TEMPTING THE CHILD TO EAT.
Any ono who has tho caro of chil
dren knows how bard It Is at times
to got children to cat tho food that
1b often necessary for their very ox
iatcuco. Diplomacy, tuct and patlcnco
aro needed to overcome tho Indiffer
ence of tho child.
There lire many devices used by pa
tient mothers and ninny simple ways
which will appeal to tho child. One
llttlo boy who was steadily losing
ground becauso ot n poor appetite, was
left for a month with his land aunt,
who being an Ingenious woman, stud
led the problem, and decided that tho
youngster must bo made to cat, so
she started a game, using two spoons
in n saucer of breakfast food nnd
rich cream, each trlylng to keep tho
other from getting a spoonful, she,
of course, seeing that he nto tho most
of it At the end of a month the pa
rents returned to find a happy, rosy
boy, eating becauso ho wanted, to, and
enjoying his food.
Another method has been tried and
proven Is to namo pieces of bread and
butter for friends and playmates,
They becomo so interested in tho
game that the food Is eaten before
thoy reallzo It
Ono mother who had difficulty in
teaching her child to tako milk from
a glass, overcame tho difficulty by put
ting a transfer plcturo on tho bottom,
which ho would, bo rewnrdod by seeing
when ho had drunk the contents of
the glass.
Pretty dishes, cutting food In tho
form of animals, and n story told will
often help a meal to bo taken happily.
Imagination is an essential In every
body's training, and a child often
needs to havo it dovoloped.
Food must appeal to tho oyo of tho
child as woll as to tho adult
A set of doll dishes used for a meal
will often tempt n child to cat a largo
amount without realizing it
Somo children with food aro liko
thoBo of older growth, "the good that
I would I do not, and tho evil that I
would not,, thnt I do."
HEKE must be no atlnt Ot la
bor tvhnrn It will tell for Ollr
neighbors' happiness, but no wasteful ex
travneance of It where It will not profit.

PEACH POSSIBILITIES.
There is no better fruit than the
ripe, IuscIoub peach; and fresh from
the tree, full of ita own flavor, it is in
deed foot) for tho gods. '
Deing frugal housekeepers, we must
of necessity look into the future and
provido for tho tlmo when fresh
peaches aro not obtainable.
We will can nnd plcklo them, mako
jam and marmalade, and with tho pits
and peeling wo will cook some green
apples and make a moBt delectable
jolly. s
Sliced, and Bprinkled with sugar
and served with cream, they will form
many a dainty dessert
Peaches mako a delicious pie. Dako
a crust and fill with sliced peaches;
Bweoten with sugar and pile on
whipped cream. Servo chilled.
Peach Canapes. Sauto circular
pieces of spongo cako In butter until
delicately browned. Place a halt a
peach which has been sprinkled with
a llttlo lemon julco on each. Pour over
n little peach julco, fill the hollow In
tho peach with nut meats and servo.
Peach Tapioca. Cook a cup ot tap
lco'in boiling water after soaking ono
hour, add peach julco to flavor, sweet
en and salt to taste. Lino a dish with
quartered pcact, fill with tapioca and
bakq thirty minutes, Serve with
cream.
Clave Tarts. Dako crusts of puff
paste in the form of cups, lay In a
half of a rlpo peach and in each cavity
place a blanched almond.
Peach baskets are made ot paste
and baked, then filled with sliced
peaches.
Dnked Peaches. Pcol and cut In
halves, remove the stones, fill each
cavity with sugar, butter and a little
lemon juice and nutmg. Dake 20
minutes and serve on buttarcd toast

HOW TO PREVENT WASTE.
To keep down expenses, "prevent
waste in food and conserve tho
strength of the housekeeper is tho
great problem ot household economics.
Ono ot tho best methods of prevent
ing waste in food is to. preparo only
as much as will be eaten; this does
not mean being niggardly, but simply
thrifty.
Wilted vegetables may be re
stored by soaking In cold water sev
eral hours.
Whon opening a can ot tomatocsi
uso tho thin Julco for soups and tho
tomatoes for an escallopcd dish.
Look over tho Ico box before plan
ning a tnoal; often tilings most appe
tizing aro forgotton.
Wise planning and careful, buying
will aid In reducing oxpenscs, but 011
left-overs must bo used or tho table
expenses will bo too high.
Wash poaches boforo pooling and
tho skin may then bo used with apples
for Jelly, giving tho Jelly a delicious
poach flavor.
A dainty llttlo toasted cracker may
bo made from thinly sliced baking
powdor biscuit that havo been toasted
and buttered. Servo with orungu
mnrmalndo nnd tea.
To provont tho wasto ot energy in
tho housekeeper, plan to (to down if
but for Ave minutes, completely relax,
closo tho oye8 and If tho foot are tired
and swollen, elevate them and tho
blood leaving them relieves tho tired
feeling.
A hot bath and a brisk rub will do
wonders to n tired body.
In tho cool of tho day get tho pastry
all ready for'tho wator, and set on ice,
then when the plo Is to bo made a
few momenta will do tho work.
Watermelon rind innkcn delicious
preserves and If cut in small cubes
and preserved with ginger makes a
most appetizing garnish for Ice cream.
Uso a carpet sweeper Instead ot a
broom on tho ruga and carpets unless
you aro fortunalo enough to havo a
vacuum cleanor.
' Wash a window now and then.
Don't try to clean tho wholo houso In
ono morning.
EN drink becauso they havo a
slnklni: feeling: Rood food
satisfies tliut craving permanently.

THE UNEXPECTED GUEST.
It is not always possible oven in a
city to get things in a hurry, and the
hou'sekoopcr who provides tor the un
fdrosecn need havo no feverish mo
ments when tho unexpected gucBt ar
rives. Sho will have In tho storo
room or clqset a roservo for Just such
occasions, and when any is used It is
supplied to fill tho sholvos tor the
next occasion. Potted meats nnd llsh,
canned soups nnd choice glasses ot
Jelly and preserves, pickles nnd olives,
nuts, fruit cako nnd cookies aro como
ot tho useful supplies. A few cans ot
vegetables, llko corn, tomatoes and
string beans may bo quickly turned
Into a salad or a hot dish with white
sauco. $
Keep a list of tho contents ot tho
ciosot on tho Insldo of tho door, and
bosldo it a list of dishes, with tho num
ber ot tho pa go whero found in tho
roclpo boolc Ono cannot always rely
on tho memory unlqss tho recipe is
very familiar.
Then, when In a hurry to preparo a
meal a glance will show you your op
portunities. A jar of maltod milk will provo a
treasure, as it will furniuh a cup ot
hot, refreshing milk after a cold ride
or beforo retiring. With tho nddltlon
of n fow fresh crackors it takes Uio
placo' of an oyster stow. Very good
soups aro mado by using tho tablets
ot different flavors, and with choose
always on hand and a cup of coffee
quickly mado, a '"hurry-up"-meal la
easily prepared,
Wo wish our guests to feel that thoy
aro welcome, and thore Is no bet,tor
wny to provo it than by being a fresh,
unruffled hostess. Wo have all no
doubt boon entertained whero tho llrst
courso was roasted hostess.
A daintily server, appetizing meal
quickly prepared should bo a- ac
complishment of overy woman. When
things are wrong, are spilled or
spoiled, as will happen even in a
trained housekeeper's kitchen, bo re
sourceful; know how to adjuct your
self to circumstances. Keep coo!, and
everybody will bo happier and pro
nounce you a charming hostess.
