FRINGE ON BLOUSES.
Fringe is. If anything, a bit newer on blouses than the use of beads, and is seen in the wide or the very narrow width of floss of ostrich or of ribbon. The narrow fringe is usually used in loops. Looped wooden beads in brilliant colors are used tn figured voiles with - good effect. A Mikado red figure on a background of cream ’ voile matched the beads of wood with which one blouse was finished at the bottom of the peplum and the wide, loose sleeves. Jade and all shades of pale yellow are considered smart, and when worn with a skirt of the same color, are diffi

tunics and aprons thrive apace.
VELVET FOR WRAPS.
Velvet is being used in a variety of
frock wraps. It is used tor coat frocks which are fur trimmed, for picturesque dinner frocks of flowing line, and for
draped effects in evening wear.
LACE IS TRIUMPHANT.
The lace dress is having a triumphal time at present. Gowns of Chantilly. Vermicalli, white AUencon, and black and yellow Spanish lace were among those which recently scored highest In
a fashion show.
COOL CURTAINS AND SPREADS

The dressy summer costume to the left is made of polka dotted organdy combined with plain batiste. The color scheme is henna and tan, henna being introduced in the dots. Suggestive of comfort are the low square neck and large armholes, while the toiette Is effectively finished with a hat of henna satin straw with bands of **t-v*vet about the crown. Pussywillow taffeta in Copen blue is lovely for afternoon wear.

Black-and-white cretonne with a little pink roes In it makes a very effective j border, but any flowered cretonne or chintz, preferably, with a cream-col-J ored background. Is good. Banda of plain rose, sage green, old blue or yellow chambray are also very attrac-
! tiv*.
; The same ideas can be carried out in bedspreads. Muslin has the advantages of being inexpensive and easily laundered. It Is a yard wide ani may be cut in half If desired. This haif curtain permits more air to corue Into the room, at the same time hiding the ugly window frame. The borders should be from two to three Inches hide. They may be sewed on the lower part of the valance, and on one or both edges, that is, both sides of the cur-

be used If desired. Bolster throws trimmed to match are exceedingly at-
tractive.
There is nothing very new in plain white scrim curtains, but trim them with pink, blue, green or yellow block gingham, and you will have unusually pretty draperies. The same idea carried out in bureau scarfs is very good. Linen-colored crash banded with chambray makes very pretty dining room draperies. When hemming curtains pull several threads Just as is done for hemstitching. This will make it easier to cut and hem them evenly. It must be borne in mind that in order to obtain artistic and restful rooms plain colored or bordered curtains should be used with figured wallpaper (especially lyge) designs. On the other hand large figured draperies can be used very effectively with plain wall cover-
ing.

USE
FURS IN SPITE OF HEAT
Nothing in the line of children’s wear is of greater interest Just now than tub frocks. Three pretty models are pictured above, the first in white pique with pleated skirt and sailor blouse Joined under a straight belt of self-material. The collar and cuffs are trimmed with braid. Striped gingham is used for the second dress, which is made with a suspender skirt to be worn with gulmpe of lawn, organdy or dimity. The skirt Is trimmed with deep pockets. Chambray or linen would look well made up after the third model. The short-waiated bodice buttons In double-breasted fashion and is Joined to a gathered skirt, pocket trimmed. The sleeves are short and self-cuffed.
.... ..-lit, will show In the V-shaped neck opening. Frills with twisted bands of the ribbon underneath should turn upward from the edge of the short sleeve. The crisp net’frill* will "make'’ this simple frock you see; and such a frock, shown recently In a Manhattan shop, was rather high priced and very,
very smart.
For wear with gingham, dimity and linen morning dresses there are crisp collar and cuff sets of fine lawn or handkerchief linen with trimming of filet or hand-made Iriah crochet. These laces are very fashionable Just now In the daintier, narrower widths and are better style on neckwear than the Imitation Vais, though the latter are used with good effect on accessories of organdie
and shirred net. BLOUSES FOR FALL.
Fell blouses find frequent use for tricolette and chiffon velvet. In fact, almost every silk which novel to the
blouse field is being used for fall.
JAPANESE METHOD OF FURNISHING'ROOMS
UPPOSE, now Just suppose, that whenever you acquired a new ring or a brooch or a pair of earrings or a fan or a lace scarf jou put It on and wore it and kept on wearing It. If you had a large collection of attractive accessories you would go about fairly laden with things —three or four earrings attached to each ear and your fingers heavy with rings and your neck swatlied about with chains or beads. Yet that is juat what we do with our rooms. If we get a new ornament. If we like It and want to keep It, we add it to the drawing roam table or mantelpiece or top of the book shelves or wherever we can find room for It. If we get a new oriental rug we move up
those that are already on the floor and add the new one and say to ourselves that as long as they are all oriental it doesn’t matter whether they are quite harmonious or not. And we acquire a new picture and take It home and try to And a place for it. If we positively dislike any of those hanging we take them down and either give it away or put it in the servants’ sitting room—If we have one—but if we like those that are on the w'all, we simply move them closer. You see we have this Occidental notion that we must have our rooms furnished once for all— that Is, that we should not change our furnishings from day to day, from season to season, as we change our raiment. Now the Japanese way is to have only a very limited number of articles in each room. There are in the homes of
the well-to-do storerooms where beautiful ornaments and pieces of furniture are kept to use for change or variety. The result is that a Japanese room of this sort is seldom monotonous, for there is infinite variety about It and to the truly appreciative eye of the Japanese man or woman there is far greater pleasure in admiring one exquisite article in a room at a time than a conglomeration which you could not possibly appreciate at once if you tried. To the Japanese eye, of course, many of our rooms look like nothing in the world so much as a bazar where everything is crowded on tables and counters for the purpose of exhibiting it for sale. While it might not be feasible for us to adopt the Japanese method exactly, still it is quite possible to make occasional changes in the furnishing of our houses and rooms. This is especially
true at this time of the year. Why not put away a good many of the winter cmament® , The drapery should be taken down for the warm weather. In order that your house shall not appear bare and uninteresting you might put up some summer draperies instead. Thus you' 1 will change your immediate surroundings when you are not able to go away from home. FEATHERS ON FROCKS, Dance frocks are stowing "finer feathers" than they were very recently. The trimming may be either ostrich, choux, flower effects or beads. Slender wisps are seen more than the fringes, and are always seen in contrasting color.
MACHINE FOR HAND WORK. What is called a "machine for hand embroidery" has been put on the market by a New York man. It can be used easily, either by women In their homes or employes of manufacturers of millinery, women’s neckwear, etc. Leading concerns in the millinery business are now showing in their lines samples of embroidery made with the device. A school of Instruction has been established by the distributor of the machine and. if desired, any person who buys one, or any emp’oye of & manufacturer, will be shown without charge how to operate it. Embroideries, either In silk or cotton, in skeins or spools, can be made with the machine, which is said to be especially handy for decorating pillows, draperies, infants’ wear, lingerie, etc. The art needlework de-
O ACCUSTOMED has Paris become to black, black and white, or gray and mastic, that color, even on an occasion such as the Grand steeple, writes a correspondent of the Lon*^n Times, comes as a shock to the eyes and suggests something Inharmonious, even vulgar. Brown Is the one color which seems to have. In any sense, rivaled the favorite tones, and as the Frenchwoman, generally speaking, wears brown successfully, the rivalry mav be maintained. Only very young women wear the dainty dresses of pink, blue and heliotrope, with certain success, but on Sunday there were enough of all these colors to make the scene gay. They were quite simple, ami as trimming had either embroidery in white or black, or else ribbon trimming. loops down the sides, edgings of ribbon points, or of very small loops. The effect of these trimmings is a little
hard.
Black net skirts with corsages of white taffetas, satin or lace were among the i great successes of the day. Two or three deep flounces form the skirt, with a ! loose little crossover or bolero bodice In j white taffeta or satin, made with short I sleeves. Where lace Is worn the skirt has panniers, either draped or floating, and the material is used so Iransparently on the bodice that the pattern is iully apparent, showing beneath it thinly veiled shoulders. The favorite lae» is Chantilly, white over black, black over white and sometimes black ove.* black and white over white. But always a very transparent corsage. Royal Blue With Black. Royal blue was worn with black bv several women, t^lack satin with a skirt of long blue and black fringe. A cloak was made of several layers of royal blue with one of black, and one dress of black net -had fringes of royal blus ostrich feathers. There were also a few toques of royal blue feathers. Colored voiles with printed designs It other colors were worn, one In gree.t, with a brown design, another in gold with blue, and both models were cleverly draped in Tanagra folds and with rather long skirts. There Is a chance that the Tanagra statuettes may inspire the next popular silhouette, and, if so, the short skirt will decline. Let us hope that the walking skirt, at least, will never grow long again. Three eccentric ladies, In spite of the Intense heat of the day, were dressed for winter. One wore a most magnifl* cent moleskin cloak, another had on * black and white doth coat and skirt, both rather long, and the coat had a stand-up collar made of three small collars, each edged with white, the topmost touching the lobe of the wearer s ?ars. The third lady wore a voluminous fur stole, and all looked quite cool and , collected, untroubled by the incongruity of being seen in arctic garments when everybody else was dressed for the tropics. Wshlon, at any rate, knows no boundaries.

Viscount Turns Over $50,000,000 Value for His Two Sons. NEW YORK. August 16.—The New York real estate . holdings of Viscount WUltAm Waldorf Astor, valued at more than 950,000,000, have been formally transferred to the Farmers Loan Trust Company to be held In trust for his two scots, Waldorf Astor and Captain John Jacob Astor. No statement as to the purpose of the transfer was made by Viscount Actor's attorneys, but it was understood to have been In line with the policy be adopted tn 1911. when he turned over about 17,000,006 in real estate to the same company to be held in trust for his sons. At that time It was said that the move waa for the purpose of escaping the heavy Inheritance tax which would have been levied had he retained the property and disposed of It

Agnes looked a bit puzzled, and I descended to plain facta: "In other words, you felk back home can forget that Mrs. Sweeney turned out more pairs of pajamas for the Red Cross than any other worker we had, and never missed a day’s washing for any of you, and you can ignore the fact that poor old Grandma Jenkins, whose deafness has

They handle highly perishable products, their rate of profit is not 2 per cent, on their turnover, and they don't make as much in any two years as steel did during the
war In quarterly periods.
In these times when people who do not have the opportunity of knowing the facts, and when they are feeling the pinch of high prices for which the packer is in no way responsible, peoole are apt to be led into unwarranted legislation which really would aggravate the

BAY RUM CASE UP TUESDAY Legal Authorities Being Examined
for Test Trial.
The case of Charles McKenzie and
Wilbur Roush, charged with the Illegal sale of bay rum, has been continued in city court until Tuesday. Acting Judge Robbins, who said Thursday that he thought bay rum could not be sold legally, and the attorney for the defendants, have been examining the state law on the subject. They will also find out what de-
cision other states have made. Judge Robbins said today that he
thought the Indiana law prohibits the sale of everything that has intoxicating properties but that he would have tp make further investigations before mak-

We can go on in our own little, narrow paths, thanking our stars that we are not like other folk, certain that our way is best, or we can recall how much we’ve learned, during the last year or so, from the humblest of our neighbors. It might be better for us all If we did that very thing. For my own part, I prefer the natural wood, honest In its own strength and durability, beautiful in the markings that nature sketched in, with the growth of the tree, to any veneer ever applied. And I believe that the homely, natural virtues, the things we have come to appreciate in the last few years, have more value than all the little niceties of
convention.”
Agnes turned to the Little Mother, who had just entered, and was smiling at my outburst—she’s used to them. "She talks like a militant new woman,” said Agnes, "this Mary Ellen person, who has lived such a neat little straight-and-narrow existence, next door to me, ay these year*. What have you all done to her, over here?" “Oh, we’ve spoiled her shamefully, I suppose," said the Little Mother, “I shouldn’t be surprised if we’ve quite turned her head. Wait till your boy comes home, and you’ll understand better, dear lady,” she soothed. "Mother

or any other liquid that is commonly used as a beverage is sold, the law presumes that it is sold for drinking purposes. In the case of bay rum, however, it may be necessary to prove that It was sold as a beverage before the
salesman can be convicted.
McKenzie is the proprietor of a drug store at Sixteenth street and Columbia avenue, and Roush is his clerk. McKenzie said that he had sold a large quantity of bay rum and never knew whether he was acting within his rights or not. He said that he had no intention
of violating the law.

"What I’ve been trying to say, Agnes, is this,” I said. "By all the laws that be. Stephen, with a university career behind him and the promise of his legacy from his grandmother and the money his father left, to start him on he road to financial success—by all hese tokens, he should have been a eader among the men he fought with.’ “He Is a sergeant," defended Agnes,
and I continued:
“Sergeant or private, dear. I know he’s done his part-the biggest tales of heroism have been told about the men In the ranks. That Isn’t what I’m trying to say. I’m not trying to explain Stephen so much as I am trying to understand Johnny Reed. I guess the remark that one of the boys made last
year, that we'd all been training for this very thing all our lives, expl*
whole thing.
"But the thing we’ll have to puzzle over now, is what we’re going to do with these boys when they come back to civilian life—these Johnny Reeds, who have emerged from their shell*, and the rough-and-tumble youngsters who surprised us all by their efficiency and courage. Are we ever going to be able to keep them contented when they come
home to us?"

If I were a real author. I’d tell you that, before my bread wae oht of the oven. Stephen’s husky six-foot self was
striding up the path to the door of_tlnr little house, and Agnes waa flying to meet him, and I’d leave you in agonized suspense over the touching greetings that followed. What he said to her, or she to him, is not a matter of record, but his greeting to me, as he reached the foot of the steps, was about like this: “Hum-m-m—somebody's got * fresh light bread In the oven. C’n I pull off the end of the loaf, Mother Machree, and eat It while it’s hot? Can I?" MOTHER MACHREE.

You Can Make Your Complexion Soft, White and Youthful By the Use of the Popular BLACK and WHITE Beauty Treatment. Women everywhere want to look well. The savage maiden tattoos her skin, fixes rings in her nose, while the example of present day beauty in a civilized woman is a soft, velvety skin and a radiant com-

To attain a beautiful skin, sticky, greasy face creams, lotions, powders or rouge should not be used. Such cosmetics only serve to temporarily hide or mask the unsightly skin. You can remove pimples, insect bites, freckles, tan, sunburn and make your dark, sallow, muddy complexion white, smooth and soft by the use of the Black and White Beauty Treatment, which consists of Ointment and Soap. The Ointment is used at night—washed off the next morning. It is different from cosmetics because it takes off or removes skin blemishes—does not
cover or hide them.
