ANNE HnTENHOUSE
The French Woman's Athletic Life and
Her Sports Clothe.
PARIS, July 28. This town, as well
as all the fashionable resorts along
the Brittany and Normandle coast, has
given Its allegiance to orange.
One sees It everywhere, and against
the gray skies, the white cliffs or the
green sea, it goes well.
This week the smart world Is very
much at leisure, filling in the time be
tween the final swing In Paris and the
races at Beauville rnd later at Baden:
for years fashion-French world follows
the horses as certain American institu
tions 'are said to follow the flag. And
the "little horses" follow the big ones,
so that one may lose as much money
as one chooses on both.
In between the fashionable racing
seasons society here, meaning fashion
able members of every nation who fol
low French customs, lives a charmed
life at seaside or In the villas near
Paris.
Here they go In for sport, tennis,
golf, swimming, sailing, motoring. And
the condition that astonishes me most
was the attitude of the French women
toward physical exercise.
We Anglo-Saxons have a feeling that
only our women are strenuously ath
letic, and that the French woman is a
dainty doll, elaborately dressed, and
capable of no greater exertion than a
strong flirtation.
Those who have this feeling should
see her at this moment with short
white skirt, orange colored sweater,
hair tucked under a stiff linen hat,
doing all the violent sports of the day
as her brother does them.
All of which has to do with fashions,
and especially with the preference
shown for vivid orange. For here is
where one sees it; here where smart
society Is playing; and it has often
been proved that on these playgrounds
of Europe most,of the prevailing Amer
ican fashions have been born.
If bright orange only appeared in
Miss Nell Miller, a charming visitor from Kentucky, is the house guest
of Mrs. A. W. Person, of Irvington. Miss Miller has been entertained at sev
eral delightful social gatherings. On Tuesday Mrs. Person honored her at a
reception, and last night Mrs. Robert Berger gave a delightful affair for the
visitor. Miss Miller will return to her home by way of California.
rough woolen sweaters one might not
find enough food for a story, but It
has appeared In the new felt hats,
those broad-brimmed capotlers that
women are wearing from Folkstone to
Biarritz. We call them sailors at home.
Also the hosiery people are offering
orange-colored stockings in several
shades. At the Galeries Lafayette,
where a:e cast the shadows of coming
fashions, there are so many orange
stockings heaped on a table that one
has a fleeting impression of a huck
ster's fruit stand.
Cravats for white blouses are in the
same shade; also waistcoats of thin
suede of floss grain silk, of Martine
cottons showing small oranges -on a
black or bright blue background. There
are orange-colored buttons on white
blouses, waistcoats and top coats.
Orange Top Coats.
Probably the most conspicuous gar
ment that has come out in this gor
geous and conspicuous shade is the top
coat made of rough, hairy wool. It is an
adorable splash of just the right color
against a country landscape.
Many of these loose outer garments
are trimmed with white; it Is at the
neck and waists, at the pockets and In
the buttons. Car.'t you see jusfhow ef
fective one of these would be during
October and November, with a white
shirt for out-of-town life?
If your especial kind of life does not
allow of warm coats between seasons,
or white wash skirts and blouses late
in the Autumn, then the woolen top
coat of orange does not fit Into your
scheme of things; but the fact that this
color has been so widely adopted that
it has reached this responsible gar
ment will surely interest you. It may
be useful to apply to some part of your
Autumn wardrobe; and it is ratner
good to know about such things, don t
you think?
Those Orange Hats.
The forecasts for Fall millinery In
clude the capotier hat in sightly felt;
especially In orange.
None of these hats worn now are as
bright In tone as the coats, the stock
ings or the sweaters, but they are quite
brilliant enough for the hair. They are
without trimming except for a severe
band of grosgraln ribbon with a flat
bow at the side. They are perched well
down on the forehead, slightly over
one temple and are particularly smart
with the sleek coiffure of the hour.
They enhance that severely cut sil
houette of the head that is gaining in
fashion each month.
One no longer sees hair covering all
the ears and forehead." There is an
absence of curls and puffs. Women
with low, shapely foreheads show
every Inch of them, and even women
whose every effort has been to cover
the inches above the eyebrows with
hair of some description are now yield
ing to the new demand by leaving only
a slight fringe there.

Xasturtlnms, When They Are Kdlble.
The green shoots on the stems of
nasturtiums and the seeds are said by
an eminent horticulturist to make
pickles second not even to capers. The
shoots and seeds must be young when
they are gathered so that they will be
free from disagreable bitterness and
strength. The leaves and flowers can
be used for salad and are so used In
England to a much greater extent than
here. They are considered an excellent
remedy for scurvy.
nniiirtinin Capers.
Pickled nasturtium seeds can be used
In any way In which capers are used,
and they give a delicate flavor to fish
and meat sauces and to salad and sand
wiches, stuffed eggs and croquettes. To
prepare them, gather young seeds and
put them in bottles. Cover them with
boiling brine and let them stand for
several days. Then drain them and boll
the brine. Pour it over the seeds again
and continue this operation twice a
week for three weeks. Then put the
seeds in clear water and change It oft
en until the salt is extracted from
them. Then pu them in bottles again
and fill the bottles with boiling spiced
vinegar. For every quart of vinegar
needed, use half a tablespoonful of
sugar and a tablespoonful of mixed
spices. Bring to the boiling point and
pour over the seeds. When cold, seal
the bottles. The seeds are ready for
use In a week or so.
Nasturtium Sauce.
A good sauce for flsh, meat and veg
etables Is made by adding three table
spoonfuls of pickled nasturtium seeds
to a cupful of drawn butter sauce.
Simmer for a few minutes.
Nasturtium Vinegar.
This Is a delicious vinegar to use for
flavoring salads. It can be used to thin
mayonnaise or a little of it can be add
ed o French dressing to give it a
delicate flavor. It is especially good
with a fish salad. To make it gather
nasturtium seeds and wash them light
ly. Dry them, and put enough in a
bottle to stand for three weeks. Then
pour off the vinegar and It Is ready for
use.
Nasturtium Sandwiches.
Nasturtium sandwiches are especially
appropriate for a lawn party or for tea
served out of doors. To make them,
chop nasturtium leaves and small flow
ers, freshly gathered and washed, and
add them to butter. Butter both slices
of bread lightly with thl3 butter and
on one slice place leaves from fresh
flowers. Pi.ss on the other buttered
slice and serve quickly.
Nasturtium and Potato Salad.
Cut a quart of boiled potatoes In
small cubes and mix with them half
a cupful of chopped gherkins, a cupful
of tender nasturtium shoots cut Into
email pieces, two tablespoonfuls of
pickled nasturtium seeds. Mix in a bowl
that has been 'rubbed with half an
onion. To this add six tablespoonfuls of
olive oil, the same amount of vinegar
and salt and pepper to taste. Sprinkle
with chopped parsley and garnish with
nasturtium blossoms.

-William's Choice.
ONCE upon a time there was a wood
cutter and his wife who lived on
the edge of a forest. They had cne son
named William; at least, they called
him their son, for the woodcutter found
him on the steps one morning and had
taken him in.
But the woodcutter was very poor,
and now William was grown and there
was no money to educate him.
"Let us divide the little we have
with him and send him out into th
world to seek his fortune," said his
mother.
So they called William to them and
told him what they intended to do.
"We have five pieces of gold," said
his father; "you shall have three, as
vou will need more than we.
William took the gold and told them
he would make his fortune and com
back to take care of them.
"Be an honest man," said his mother
"and whatever you do remember tha
a clear conscience can only be had by
being honest."
"And when you are discouraged,
said his father, "remember that there
are many worse off than you."
So Will started on his journey. Ho
tfaveled for a day or two without
meeting any one, but just as he came
to the city he saw a poor woman sit
tinir bv the roadside with a baby in
her arms.
William stopped and spoke to her
She told him her baby was ill and that
she was taking it to a doctor in the
city.
William thought of his gold. "If
do not help this woman," he thought
"I shall not be honest," and so he put
n. niece of gold into her hand.
He stopped at a house and asked for
work.
"What can you do?T asked the man
"I am willing to do anything that is
honest." replied William.
The man told him to go to work in
his stable and care for the horses.
This man was not rich, but he
wished to make a display, and he gava
his poor horses so little to eat that
William spent the small wages he re
ceived for the first month for food for
the noor. starved beasts.
One day another servant was taken
ink and the master turned him out
hceause he could not work.
Here is a man iiiu.l is wuiae vu
than I am," said William. "I have two
Dieces of gold. I .must help him." So
he took the man to the hospital.
"Now, I must find worto at once.
said William, "for I have only one
niece of gold left," but he had not gone
far before he met a poor beggar who
was blind.
"If I pass him without giving him
mv last niece of gold," said William, "I
shall not be honest, and he is worse off
than I am."
He dropped the piece of gold into the
outstretched hand of the beggar and
hurried away.
Tha next nlace that he asked for
work was at the door of a rich man
William worked here for a long time,
but he received only small wages, and
at the end of a year he had saved very
little.
"I cannot make a fortune and be
honest to myself and everyone else,
he said. "I'll sro home and live with
father and mother. They are old and
need me and I can support them by
cutting wood. We shall have very lit
tie but we shall be happy and that
means a erreat deal."
His father and mother were pleased
to see him. "But where is your ror
tune?" they asked.
William told them how his gold was
spent and that he found the rich and
noor alike in their greed lor goia
"There are so many in the world who
need helc" he told his father and
mother, "that we can only care for
those ' that are nearest to us, and my
duty Is here."
And so William lived with his father
and mother and took care of them.
They were repaid for taking into their
home a friendless babe and wunam
lived a contented life, feeling sure he
had been right in all things.

im HEEE miles from the Inn," re-
JL peated Marian mechanically
She was drenched and dripping, after
her escape with Challoner from the
snagged canoe. ,
It was quarter to 12. A cool wind
was blowing. The moon, which by
this time had climbed high, regarded
their plight with cold unconcern.
"Come," said Challoner forcefully.
"I see nothing to do but to return to
the Inn on foot. The walk will do us
good. If we stand around In this con
dition, I'm afraid you'll catch cold. I
hadn't counted on anything like a
three-mile midnight stroll as a finale
to our little outing. Luck was against
us, and we'll have to make the best
of It. Confound me for letting the
canoe get snagged.2'
"It wasn't your fault, protested
Marian, objecting to her companion's
self-condemnation.
"I should have been more careful,"
he insisted. "I thought I knew that
channel like a book. Here's your coat,"
he said, picking up the garment he had
thrown ashore before their desertion
of the wrecked craft. "Fortunately
it's dry. It will prove a protection
against the wind, anyway," he added,
helping her into it.
"It feels good," she said, drawing it
around her wet waist.
They now set out briskly on foot.
They had clambered upon that side of
the river bank on which Placid Inn
was located, so that the remainder of
their journey was entirely on land,
with nothing more in the way of obsta
cles ahead than a number of barbed
wire fences, through or under which
Challoner readily assisted Marian' to
clamber.
It proved a strange, weird, memor
able journey to Marian, not soon to be
forgotten. Marian had mercifully been
spared a complete ducking, so that the
feminine ignominy of drenched and
disheveled hair was not added to her
woes, as she strode homeward at the
side of her escort.
With his "Rand upon her arm. he
steadied her as they proceeded over
fields, through clumps of woodland,
and across rough bits of pasture land.
"If the people at the Inn find out
what's happened to us, we'll never
hear the end of It," observed Challoner
grimly. "If we can manage to slip in
unobserved, it will be something to
be thankful for. I wouldn't mind their
raillery so much," he added. "I am
thinking of you."
"The main thing Is to get there,"
returned Marian, with a iiver. "We'll
contrive to run the gauntlet. I know
of no night-owls at the Inn. They'll
all be fast asleep when we get there."
"I hope so. I wish I knew of some
way to repay you for all this horrible
mess I've got you into. You've been
delightfully brave and game through
it all. You're a wbnderful girl."
Challoner's words went through the
other like warming, pleasant fires.
Also, It came over her that In all prob
ability if the same misfortunes had
befallen her under the auspices of any
other, man she had ever known It was
likely that she would have lost her
equanimity completely. The tran
spired events, rough as they were,
had drawn her closer to the man at
her side. She also felt a certainty
that the other's praise had been born
no doubt of the knowledge that his
wife would have ajcted very differently
under the stress ft these untoward cir
cumstances. -
At length, warmed and partially
dried by their walk, they drew near
Placid Inn. By the light of stars and
moon, they could see it. silent and
dark, amid its setting cf trees and
sleeping iawns. They crept qule;

Accurate Information on the War
in The Sunday Oregonian
Besides its complete daily news service, which keeps
its readers thoroughly posted on the inarch of events in
Europe. The Sunday Oregonian of August 23 wilV present
a large amount of illuminating related matter, both read
ing and pictures, in its Magazine Supplement.
"The War Will Change the Map of Europe," is a re-
mark frequently heard, and every family that has a copy
of next Sunday's Oregonian will have a large colored BMp
ftf the troubled continent, showing all points of impor
tance. This map will be found valuable in following the
course of the campaigns, and if the political features ot
Europe are indeed to be remade, as now seems possible,
it will be well to save it for comparison after the shakcup.
Germany's Coast Defenses are discussed from an ex
pert standpoint, and are declared very strong. A des
cription of the fortifications of Heligoland, the little is
land off the mouth of the Elbe River, discloses what a
shrewd transaction was the acquisition of this stronghold
by Germany from England in 1890.
The Horrors of Warfare, ancient and modern, are de
picted in another striking article. It is shown that the
business of wholesale man-killing differs only in method
from the time of the war-elephant to the war-automobile.
There are several battle descriptions of the kind that will
probably not be written during the present war, because
of the determination of the nations involved to keep war
correspondents from seeing any actual carnage.
Nicholas II, Czar of Russia, is described in full-page
article, illustrated with a handsome portrait of the "Lit
tle Father" and others of members of his family. "A
Melancholy Maniac" is what a French savant called the
Czar. This story tells vtfiy.
War Pictures The Cream of the news pictures of the
two best pictorial services is represented in the picture
pages that will make a part of Section .", and the current
news will, as usual, be illustrated with timely cuts.
Can You Remember everything you read? If you can
your mental training is defective, according to David M.
Roth, of Portland, to whose marvelous feats of memory
a page is devoted in the magazine.
Pony-Raising as a good way to make money is fully
described in another article, with pictures.
"Farmers' Business Adviser" is the title of Profecaoi
W. J. Spillman, of the farm management of the depart
ment of agriculture. An interesting article tells how in
got the title.
James Montgomery Flagg, in verse and picture, taUci
up a large part of another page of the magazine. This
clever artist "breaks into verse" this time with mirth
provoking results.
"An Epoch in Child-Making", is yet another page arti
cle in the magazine. "The Adventures of Suzanne" is an
other. And besides all this wealth of good reading there
are the quaint sayings of Abe Martin, the Hoosier philos
opher, and other interesting items.
