Tho shops abound with gay impor

is a woven wicker basket on a cans,

Miss Eugenia
Miss Eugenia Kelly, grand
daughter of the famous Eugne Kelly,
once a leading banker of New York,
and' at one time sister-in-law of a
son of Jay Gould, will not mind her
mamma. This photograph shows the
young woman in the costume of a
tancy dress ball. '
' Just at this tima, when she is eigh
teen years of age, she enjoys an in
come, of $10,000 a year, and when she
is twenty-one she is to come into a
fortune of about $1,000,000 from her
father's estate. The young woman
was graduated from a convent a few
months ago, and .her mother says she
was' very demure. She didn't have a
' naughty little twinkle in her eye."
However, the white lights of Broad
way got on the young woman's
nerves. ' , Her mother swore out a
warrant for her charging her with
being incorrigible, and had her taken
to a police court.
"Usually she wasn't home before
for garden work. There was a
garoen set tne other day in one
of the shops, for $12 complete consist
ing of a flat boat-shaped basket of
Drown wicker, fitted with shears,
collapsible ruler, grubber,' marker,
rake, brown burlap knceling-pad, and
an apron, of the bown burlap. In fact
all the tools now come light in weight
to fill the requirements. of the woman
gardener; and the fixtures in bright
collors, to catch her eye. '

4 o clock, and after I had cautioned
her I tried locking her out,' said the
mother. "She broke the glass in the
door and let herself in. She brought
a company of friends to dinner one
night, and one of the men asked me
if I had no brandy. He drank three
quarters of the bottle I had got for
him, end when he began throwing
burning cigarettes on the carpet . I
asked him to leave.
"Eugenia explained to me later
that this man was a drug fiend, and
that he was going to go away to a
sanatorium pretty soon. - I expressed
the hope that she had not added the
use of drugs to her other habits, but
all she said wa3t
" 'Any one who has $15 can get all
the cocaine or heroin she wants in
this town.' 1
"When I expostulated about the
hours she kept, she said to me:
" 'You're nobody at all if you don't
go to at east five cafes a night.' "

New York, June 5. Blase New
Ymlf scere enritics. such as bound
here by the thousands, expericenced
a thrill recently at a great war play
presented in the movies at the Strand.
This vivid war drama, entitled "Stol
en Goods," came in the gefieral run
of the Strand's features, without any
press agent attempts at advertising
such as attended the war plnys at the
regular theatres when they opened.
That the principul theme of the
motion "nicture war nlay is taken
from a story by Ouida makes it alii
the more graphic, for that great I
writer was the author of many min
ing tales.
"Stolen Goods," is poduced with a!
realism that is only possible in a
moving picture, with its great battle'
scenes, with shells ourstine over:
peaceful Belgium villages and its pro
tmvnl of war scenes that are1 vivid.
The war is pictured with all its ghast-
ily horrors and terror charges the at-
mopnhere.
The pictue is a powerful story of
a poor girl sent to jail in this coun
try as a result of a theft being at
tached to her by the renl thief, a
kets for weeda and knees, are made
bright' with, cushions of figured. era
tonne; the kneeling-pad 1 of woven '
rush Ss bound with red tape, that it,
too, may have the spirit of the sun
shine and flowers; and . baskets are
enameled and painted with roses, but-
tercups ana aanouius. even aprons .
take on a gala day aspect, being
made of chintz, cretonne, or quaint, j
checked, pink gingham.: .
The woman who makes gardening
her summer pastime may even go far
ther and select the dress she wears
with the ' apron to harmonize with
grass, flowers and dovecote.. A brown
burlap or: dark blue . linen will give
the desired effect, made with pain
waist, full skirt, and the broad organ
dy collar and cuffs that we have come
to call quaker. She will have . no
trouble in finding these accessories.
The sports shops must have anticipat
ed tho craze, for there are hats,
gloves and shoes galore for the pur- .
pose. First come the peanut, straws
and cane-buttom-chair ... hats, with
floppy brims to protect the wearer
from the sun.-These are trimmed with
a rosetto of cretonne to match the
smock, or apron, a velvet bow or a
cluRter of straw flowers. .Then there -are
poke shapes and sunbonnets with
streamers of cretonne which have ta
ken their style from a peep in a 1915
fashion book; but the Chinese coolie '
hats are the novelties of the season.
With streamers attached at the side
milady can wear tne plateau on her
head, or when the sun is yet in the
East, use it as a basket to carry her
flowers.
Since gloves must be worn to pro
tect the hands, the stores are showing
chamois and- canvas, for this purpose,"
and if you listen close you will hear
the girl behind the counter tell each
customer in a bored voice to buy ;
!:ize larger than they usually wear. Tt :
n easy to tell that this girl, too, has
been caught in the thrall of the gar
f;ening craze, and " is thinking, . no
uouht, of larkspur and roses, instead
of the gloves her customer wears.
Garden etiquette even reaches to
bhoos. White canvas is the approved
material,-and you may have a com--fcvtable,
flat sneaker or trim pump,,
with medium ' heel in this fabric.
With ' such settings, .; fittings and
clothes, gardening becomes more than
a mere pleasure. It now is a real
sport of hte summer; when you meet
u friend, it's not how many miles
have you motored, or : how many
tournaments Avon, but how does your
(,-arden- grow since the last drought,,
rain or storm of the season?
