Midsummer Millinery Copied From
Paintings of Beauties of the Past
PAINTINGS of beauties of other
days bavo been looked to, to
furnish inspiration for midsum
mer millinery of today. Tho
Gainsborough and Rembrandt bats fol
low their models almost exactly as to
line and poise, only departing from
them in composition and trimming.
Even hero it is the necessity for va
riety that brings into use new orna
ments and fashionable feathers or
flowers. No one can fail to appreciate
the beauty of this artistic headwear,
and, for the young woman who can
carry it off (that is, dress in keeping
and look after tho carrlago of her fig
ure) there is nothing to compare to it
for distinction.
Two of the finest examples of these
picturesque styles are illustrated, here.
They are both black hats with white
trimming. This combination always is
AN OSTEND BATHING SUIT
The suit in the photograph is very
chic and bewitching. It is of white
Canton cropo and waterproof. Tho
skirt is made fuller at tho bottom so
as to enable tho wearor to swim with
ease, niuo and whlto sljk has been
let In the gores.
Corsets for Fall.
Tho widespread discussion of panier
styles Is doubtlcsB responsible for tho
renorts recardinc a hanuo In corset
lines, says tho Dry Goods Economist.
There Is no causo for alarm, however,
as tho straight lino still dominates
both in costumes and in corsets. Wo
shall have many paniers, to be sure,
but they aro modified styles with no
fullness to distend tho hip line.
Belts also will bo widely used, but
thoy will not draw in tho waists. In
fact, they aro wholly ornamental and
used In quite loose effect.
"Punch Work."
In all lines of embroidery work that
is known as "punch work" still leads.
For tho benefit of tho uninitiated It
it might bo explained that tho word
"punch" Is used for tho reason that
tho open weave which Is characteris
tic of tho material employed provides
a liberal space for a needle to- punch
itself between tho threads and carry
tho embroidering material with it.

Milan with double brim, woven so
that It rolls tinder to tho head size.
Black velvet ribbon and a tuft of
black and whlto plumes nfford its
trimming. It is to bo worn with a de
cided tilt, never any less than that
shown In tho picture.
The wide brimmed hat of black laco
follows its original model less closely,
but Is not difficult to recognize. Tho
brim is outlined with white crystal
beads and tho cockado of white os
trich is mounted with a fringed ca
bochon made of tho same kind of
beads. . The brim is indented at tho
left and turns sharply off tho fnco
here. It widens toward tho hack. This
hat may bo worn with a' much moro
decided tilt by girls who aro tall and
full of figure.

WAYS OF HOLDING SUNSHADE
Gracefulness In This Respect Addi
Much Charm to the General
Appearance.
The sunshade seems to ho n rock
upon which mnny a woman's good
tnsto hopelessly founders. Not only
does one often see uncomfortablo color
mixtures, but quite ns often tho sun
Bhado Is held so ungracefully that tho
whole effect is awkward and clumsy
There ought to bo classes on "How tc
Hold the Sunshade," and nlno women
out of ten would benefit from tho les
sons, but as no enterprising individual
has originated tho Idea, I can only
recommend a little practice boforo a
long mirror. Also take noto of tho
following: (1) Seo that you do not
grasp tho handle as if it wero nn Im
plement of war. (2) Do not hold It
too near tho center of tho handle nor
too near tho tip both these faults aro
very common, nnd glvo a most awk
ward appearance. (3) Don't uso It as
a walking stick, nor, if it has a crook
handle, hang it on your nrm. (4) Hold
It lightly and easily a little distance
from tho top of tho handle and at n
slightly slanting angle.
Lovely Footgear.
Footgear, for those who can afford
the most expenslvo, Is moro than beau
tiful, and tho fancy now Is for kid
instead of for suedo footgear, nnd the
colors, If they do not match the dress,
harmonize with tho hat or with the
lining of the coat.
Naturally, the beauty of such foot
gear must ho matchod by exceedingly
lovely hosiery, mado of silk Inset with
laco, and some of it Is actually traced
with millinery) diamonds or colored
gems to harmonize with tho color of
tho evening gown. Shoes outlined
with Jewels aro an exqulBlto resource
for full dress wear.
New Hair Bsnds.
Hair bands aro still fashionable and
aro mado of imitation pearls, tinsel,
crystal beads, and maline. Now ones
Include a stiff little brush of spun
glass, but It did not gain favor, for tho
feminine eyes look for moro than
sparkle In an ornament, and theso had
no other recommendation than their
glitter.
Afghan for Baby's Carriage.
A pretty summer afghan for tho
baby's carrlago Is mado of strips of
handkerchief linen held together with
Inch and a half wide cluny lace, which
also edges ,tho cover. This is lined
wiy pink or bluo silk and ornament
ed on tho outsldo with a largo satin
bow. This makes a dainty protec
tion and in not heating.

A WEDDING BREAKFAST. ,
In theso days of many weddings
when all nature Is In bloom to assist
in making them impressive and beau
tifula few suggestions on tho Important
Bubject of eating may not bo amiss.
If tho wedding repast 1b to bo a break
fast many dainty dishes which would
be out of plnco for an afternoon or
evening collation may bo served. ,
For a first courso at a breakfast
fruit seems especially appropriate, and
as there aro countless ways of pre
senting this dlBh one may, If Inge
nious, originate something unsnal.
There Is no prettlor dish than fresh
strawberries with tho bulls left on
surrounding a mound of molded pow
dered sugar and garnished with tho
fresh laivofl of tho strawberry, though
that l not. at all now.

pinto, will mako tho main dish.
An unusual Biilad and vory good,
too, is pear, pineapple and nuts with

nice salad course.
Strawberry Ice cream, with crushed
heirics ns a sauco served on It, and
