6- ' Becsase of the Ueal Lace Trimming - rI -r.l7 " IfE of the most Interesting- things I I In the Paris shops, just now Is the .j.-.X detachable pannier. Women who " "have run over to Paris for a little May - and June shopping before the Newport Reason commences In earnest have "picked up the pannier models more be- -ause of their interest and oddity than because they take the. novelty serious ly as an established mode. The de- tachable pannier Is built of striped taf ' leta or tissue, of thin soft silk serge r"'"r of Jouy taffeta and is attached to belt so that it may be whipped over s "J,any narrow,, straight skirt of the fa miliar hobble genus, when presto! a bona fide pannier costume is immedl '' ately achieved. The pannier drapery Is effected by concealed drawing strings "Which may be loosened or pulled up so that the pannier becomes aa individual f',"a possession a though it had been ""draped on one's own figure by an ex 9.,Vpenslve modiste. Jouy materials or Dolly Varden fab A . rlcs. as these flowered taffetas and et " ihiffons are called are cropping up r' very where and are a pleasant variety .'frorn the plain colors of the past few ieasons. Even flowered lawns and -t'twr organdies are appearing and a much admired, gown at the Pre Catalln re 0i " eently was of lavender flowered organ T file worn with a little coat of laven der taffeta buttoned ' with rhlnestone buttons. The organdie skirt had at least six little ruffles, hemmed with the ;itlinlest ef hems and placed at equal dls-?7,'0.-tances above each other, almost to the .1 . hip.. Each ruffle lapped at the front "; and was Buttoned across with a rhlne ff - stone button.- The bodice did not show under the gay little silk coat which ot . 'had long tails decorated with the rhine- -stone buttons and ther was a wonder tul, huge hat of lavender hemp trimmed t.tf. with shaded violet plumes. This de-TMig-htful frock was accompanied by gray .'cj. satin boots with pearl buttons and by ' the- bye, gray is Just now the grand -xhlc in footwear. The dainty gray satin boot or buttoned oxford is sil--ays matched by silk stockings of the "m dovelike shade, though with black boots and oxfords colored stockings are often- seen. . . 5 flowered Fabrics fTomins; o tke Fere. r.A ' little frock of. pale blue lawn J" sprinkled with mauve roses was noted r the other day on a club veranda In Westchester and aa the woman who " wore it has recently brought back from Paris at least four trunks full of lovely -rlothes. the assumption was that this ""flowered frock was an authoritative Paris creation. It was exceedingly 5rilmple and had a straight skirt, but Si toning down the center front as far aa the knee with amethyst and rhlnestone buttons of mammoth size. From the knee down there was a row of smart little black velvet bows. The bodice, cleverly fitted without pleats yet in pleasingly full lines, was buttoned up the front as far as the bust with the big- glass buttons. From there, up to the throat were set the little black bows, though on the top of the bodice they rested, not' against the flowered material of the frock, but against a flat pleated Jabot of sheer batiste edged with filet lace. This pleated , Jabot spread across me top ox me wisi nu extended two . inches out over each sjioulder seam. It was met by a wide pattste and filet collar which stopped hort at the shoulder seams and hung Ttar down at the back. The sleeves .-.'came to the wrist and were buttoned up the outer aide with two rows of Y ihe amethyst and rhlnestone buttons. , i Loik Sleeves Sees Smart Frocks. More and more long sleeves are . noted each day. They are undeniably 'hot and sensible women will not take them up for every-day wear until cooler weather sets in; but their very unsuitabllUy to the season and their .taifference from the eternal elbow !' .sleeve worn with a long glove, makes - them noticeable and chle, and used .with the low-collared bodices, they are ' peculiarly quaint and picturesque. Much more' suitable for midsummer wear are ' ; -ihe dainty elbow sleeves which this " "season come over xne oenx ji tue ciuow by good two lnf hes and are met by long silk gloves. The longer the gloves, the smarter the effect, for the short 'long" glove drawn, taut as a drumhead, over a plump arm is bour-'.-(-eois and atrocious in fashionable es - timatlon. " The glove must be long " jenough to wrinkle well .on, the arm and ,,I?,uggest no .effort at economy. The embroidered silk (loves are of beauti ful quality asd the embroideries, in self or subdued contrasting colors, give an additional touch of richness to the silkezt fabric -- - A pretty streamered hat is shown in the picture with the parasol. This hat is of white milan but little of the straw shows, for the crown is almost cov ered with black velvet ribbon and there, is a black velvet facing under the brim. A wreath of small pink rosebuds adds a becoming touch of col or. The parasol is one of the ultra fashionable bell shapes which may -be handled coquettishly, but - which are not to be depended on for Teal shade as they keep off very little of the sun. Real Lace a Favorite Trimming. Many of the simple looking Summer frocks are worth small fortunes be cause of the real laces used as trim ming. Women are spending more and more money for lace and only the handsomer real laces are now eonsld ered distinctive. Much better, to have a little genuine Irish or clu'ny than yards and yards of cheap cotton' lace, says Fashion; and if you cannot afford even a little real cluny the most in expensive hand-made lace etick to THE WELL DRESSED MAN BT BEAtTMASH. TO dress in accord with fashion nowadays one must dress comfort ably, for true fashion and stiff ness In dress are at sword's points. The well-dressed man in the best sense of the term looks wholly at ease in his clothes, makes them seem part and par cel of his personality. The virile spirit of the age. frowns upon dandyism as unmanly. The softer and "loungler" one's clothes are the more do they chime with fashion and fitness. . If Americans were a race of polite idlers, fond of sprayling in wide-armed chairs, and lazily surveying the world through a club window, it would be different. But ' we ' are doers, . not . dreamers, workers no shirkers, and the man of complete leisure, even among those of . Outdoor immer Pre. e e V iiniii sj.jS.JL .. K.

Two Summer frock3, simple in design but made distinguished by thA iira . nf ran.1 lace, are illustrated. One Is a frock of embroidered, striped large wealth Is a rarity. Therefore, our manner of dress must be comfort able, sensible and suited to the tasks, big 'or little that each of us performs day by day. The real determiner of fashion is not the social dawdler but the business man. He avoids the pure ly faddish and does not tingle for the limelight. Dress Is to him Just the means to an end, not the end itself. He dresses well not for Its effect upon others, but rather or' a soothing sense of personal satisfaction. And here let me put my finger on the true inward ness of fashion dress so well that you feel "fit" to your finger tips and then forget about yourself. Above all, Summer "clothes should be cool and hence they must be loose, to allow complete freedom in moving around, as illustrated, in the. accompanying sketches. Foil Dress . Watchchalns. . The practice of wearing watchchalns with evening clothes is well estab lished. .They are seldom gold, which Is a trifle garish, but platinum. Often a simple ribbon of fine silk serves as a caln, and it may stretch half way or all the way across the waistcoat. Now and then the ribbon is worn diag onally from upper . to lower pocket.. Platinum chains set with tiny pearls are extremely good form and, to be sure, expensive. Chains of solid pearls to match the shirt studs and cuff links are also approved. This innovation is sponsored by Parisian Jewelers. Like the breast coat pocket to hold one's handkerchief, the watchchaln is sensi ble and useful with evening dress. Rightly chosen it may even be an ornament. - Sticks Must Be Substantial. - To carry a walking stick Is not an affectation, although the stick itself may be one, if it is too slender, too ornate or too "dandyfied." Sticks agree ably solve the problem of "What shall I do with my hands?" Moreover, they are an aid to walking with upright ness and repose. ' Bamboo is a wood that is much in vogue Just now. Part ridge, snakewood, and the other famil iar woods are used as much and are aa correct for there la no settled fash ion about it. The only thing that fash Ion ordains Is that one's stick be sub stantial and-look as though it were really of use. Instead of being a slim and "switchy" absurdity. Slight, light sticks, hinting of the fooleries of a fop, have been out of fashion for many years. ' The correct stick is firm and solid enough to bear one's weight. The decoration of. the", handle Is, of course, a matter of preference, not pro priety, though "gold-headed canes" smack of the vulgarian or the back stairs servant out on a holiday. .! Belted Norfolk. ' For sporting use the belted Norfolk Jacket has never lost caste. It Is quite the "comfiest" coat that one can wear In the field, at the nets or on the links. Even for motoring, motor . boating, yacht and steamer the Norfolk is a cap ital coat, with an "air" all its own. It is the preferred -sporting coat, and more Americans are taking it up every year. The newest and "smartest" type of Norfolk Jacket is .very loose and "loungy," with lapels that roll softly flod i 3 h.

There are two deep lower patch pockets and two siasn breast Docket. Usually the material is durable tweed, serviceable flannel or fuzzv homesDun. Being wholly a lieia coat, however, the .Norfolk is out of place In town. Men who wear-it in me city under the impression that they have a "Just-run-up-from-the-country" look, lack even a primary sense of the fitness of thinfrs. The fashlonaDie or folk never fits snugly, but is always loose and sometimes downright, "bag gy." It bulges over - the chest and flares over the hips. : Black Evening Waistcoats. It seems that evening fashions in the accessories of dress are veering toward a preponderance of black. ; For many years the white waistcoat has. been an Integral part of ceremonious clothes and, even though dropped for afternoon dress it has clung to evening dress and become a sort of badge of It. ' Of late, however, the black waistcoat has been inching its way into favor, and while its ' use is not yet general, the best dressed coterie has taken It up. While the wane of the white waistcoat would despoil evening dress of much of its traditional "snowiness," yet, after all. black is the richest and most distin guished of colors the ery "refinement of refinement. JiacK waistcoats 01 dull silk stuffs are new and smart for ceremonious dress.' These -are cut of both smooth and rough-nap fabrics, and may be as simple or as elaborate as personal taste wills. A waistcoat typ ical of the new mode has satin bound edges down the front opening and, like fit Sporting Summer Dress. all fashionable waistcoats, must fit with "hourglass" tightness. The downing vogue of the braid trimmed frock coat was foretold In these columns. Introduced by Bond street tailors in London as the. "heir oresumDtive" of the' braided cutaway. it has crossed to the states and is being SDonsored by the "ultraists." The air of this coat deDends both upon the way it is cut and the way it is worn. It needs a tall, well-set-up man to "carry tt off." although the manner of its cut ting can give almost anybody much of the coveted sllm-and-trlm iook. The waistline of the braid-trimmed frock is set high, thus bestowing a full sweep of skirt. The shoulders are close clipped, the hips are arched and the lapels roll softly. The waistcoat, too, is braid hound and has a collar. The coat usually fastens with a single button Just enough to give an ancnorage to the front of the garment. This new frock is cut of the same stuffs as the braided cutaway, which, however, it will by no means, elbow aside. The cutaway is as correct as ever ior oc casion," since the braid-trimmed frock Is so extreme a fashion that Its adop tion by the generality of men cannot come overnight. Motoring; Modest Fashion is scarcely a factor to be reckoned with in motoring-. The para mount consideration is comfort. Hence, whatever is comfortable is sure to be fashionable. Moreover, motoring- gar ments and accessories . are always changing, and there is such a multi plicity of them as to baffle classifying. One motor cap unites two essential be longings of the sport, cap and goggles. Into one,. There's less risk of mislay ing one's glasses and no need of pocket- ingthem when alighting from the car Detween stops, jiuiui .-uudl iuais mb made in all sorts of fabrics, such as linen, alpaca, pongee. Shantung and waterproof silk. -. Then there are woolen, leather and rubber coats un counted and uncountable. The only rule about motoring dress worth heed lng is to wear garments suited to the weather and to tne lengtn ana cnar acter of the run. For rough trips, wear thick, rough clothes that shed dust and rain. For short trips, wear any sort of comfortable clothes that give pro tection. Copyright. 1912, by Alfred F. Bryan.

Birthday Party Recipes. , Vanilla Ice Cream Take one pint of milk, two cupfuls of sugar, one large tablespoonful of flour rubbed smootn in cold milk", two eggs beaten light, one tablespoonful of vanilla extract and one quart of sweet cream well beaten. Heat the milk In a double boiler, and when it is smoking hot add the flour, eggs and one cupful of the sugar. Cook about 20 minutes, stir ring very often. Let the mixture gel cold, then add the remaining sugar ana the vanilla and cream, and freeze. A more novel flavoring Is made with a mixture of vanilla, lemon and almond extracts. , The quantities given In this recipe make about two quarts of ice cream. Lemon Sherbet Take two cupfuls of suerar. five cupfuls of cold water, the grated rind of one orange and the Juice of two oranges and tnree lemons. Put the sugar with the water and boil Just five minutes. When cold add the other ingredients, ana strain ana freeze. Sherbet made in this way should be served In small glasses. If more solidity is liked, beat1 the white of one egg stiff, add one spoonful of Dowdered susar to it and stir into the sherbet as soon as it-is frozen through. Pineapple Lemonade Boil one pound of granulated sugar in a pint of water until it Is a thick syrup. Take off the scum as it rises. Squeeze the Juice of three large lemons In a bowl, and peel a ' pineapple, cutting out all the eyes. Then grate the pineapple into the lem on iuice. Dourinsr in tne sugar syrup after this and stirring brlsMy for about three minutes.' Add a quart of fresh water and strain into a glass pitcher, putting in a lump of Ice when serving. Fruit Drink Put a pint or rea rasp berries and a quart of currants into a nrservlnsr kettle and mash them thor oughly. Sot the kettle over moderate heat and let the fruit cook gradually. When the mixture begins to boll, taKe it at once from the fire and strain it throuerh a Jelly bag into a big bowl. When it Is clear and cold, sweeten to taste and put against the ice to chill. This is generally served in small wine glasses. Homemade Ice Cream. t-.a -aom in nnurifthin or and much liked by children, and It is by no means difficult to make it at home. As In candy-making, the essential thing to perfect success is attention to de tails. Carelessness wun tne ireezing Is responsible for most of the failure with this delicious dainty. In packing the freezer for the service, it must be remembered that the smaller tne ice i- tfea liAttAT. whilA thn salt should never be too fine. A salt pre pared especially for - the purpose is known as "Ice cream salt." This salt and the finely broken ice are put in alternate layers about the cream can. which is generally set in. a wasn-iuu. Begin with a layer of ice, making this about three inches deep. Then put In a layer of salt about an Inch In depth, and continue In this alternate way up to the top of the cream can. The ice can be put In a gunny sack and then broken up wun a nea-vy imimnrt u. hatchet. To prevent the cream from "lumping," as it will do if frozen rap Idly, turn the freezer slowly at first, increasing the speed as the freezing progresses. If the lid of the freezer does not fit securely the salt water will get Into the cream, when it will be ruined for sensitive palates. tt. -.. ut&nvti nwpn - In maklna ice cream should be kept scrupulously clean. See that the can Is carefully cleansed after every using and also well sunned; before using It again give It another scalding. Be careful, too, of letting the-children eat cream that has stood overnight in the can. There is always danger of ptomaines In stale ice cream or in cream made in an im perfectly cleansed can.

CHICAGO, 1LL- AIR BATH IS GREAT AID TO CHILD BEAUTY SUMMER is a splendid season for fostering a child's good looks. Great Nature stands with, her arms wide for the little ones, inviting healthful play In the open air, when muscles are hardened, finicky appetites improved and inches and pounds taken on. Plenty of opportunity Is given the mother to build up a feeble little con stitution, and if she has no chance to go to the country she must do It in town. With early morning and late afternoon airings in the park, breezy trolley, rides and an occasional sail on an excursion boat when water is handy, the child forced to stay in town all Summer can still get through the hot spell with fair comfort. But the mother must be very careful about food on the hotter days be careful, indeed, all Summer long and the dally groom ing of the little. body must be thor ough and regular. The bath is the youngster's greatest safeguard against the miseries of a hot day, for the little moment of sensible care at once lowers the temperature of the body, soothes irerves and does a host of other good things and the hdt ter the day the more Important Is the afternoon sponge or tub bath, with clean, cool garments to put on after ward and shoes that feel like old friends. As to shoes, if you are a mother, pray don't forget that bare foot sandals the little heelless foot coverings that children wear without stockings are as cheap as cheap, .and that children like them. Supply the younger generation of your household with this species of footwear and let them don the sandals every hot day and go where they please in them. They are the next thing to going barefooted. - Sponge the little body down very gently with tepid "water if the child seems too tired for a tub bath, and repeat the operation several times during the hottest days. A teaspoonful of ammoniated toilet water will make this sponging doubly refreshing, but If this is used be careful not to have the water get Into the youngster's eyes. When the little head feels burn ing hot, and the hair is soaked with ani is sour as well, a shampoo would not be amiss and it would doubtless be reiisneo. xne enr combing the small head gets at this time would be an added comfort you -your own tired head and when it is time to dress the youngster ior me af ternoon, pay more attention-to finding the garments that will keep It cool than to putting on those for- mere looks.

A jolly roil on a quut spread on tne HAPPY THO' MARRIED ? - There are unhappy married lives, but large percentage of 'these tmhappy homes are due to the illness of the wife, mother or daughter. The feelings of nervousness, the befogged mind, the ill-temper, the pale and wrinkled face, hollow and circled eyes, result most often from those disorders peculiar to women. For the woman to be happy and good-looking she must naturally have good health.

A delicate nursery powder, with the trgrance that appeals to the senses, is an added refreshment after the bath, and it is absolutely needed for the children who chafe easily, or are given to little eruptions from heat or indigestion. . Violet talcum, prepared for nursery use, is abomt as good a thing as can be had for general pur poses, but if the child is suffering from Summer rash, this preparation would be more cooling and healing: Elder flower water, seven ounces; glycerin, one ounce: borax, one-half dram. Mix these together and apply night and morning and during the day. - Now, what is the chief cause of the Summer rash and the reason for much of the peevishness and a good deal of the light physical .pain a growing child has in Summer? Improper food, you may be sure food as heavy as that In Winter, overeating, too many cold drinks, overripe or underripe fruit. On a hot day one of the dog-day kjnd Indiscretion in food Is especially, dan gerous, particularly If a heavy meal Is eaten when the child comes in over heated. A child's food up to 8 years of age and often later needs always to be of the light, easily digested sort. Milk Is the most natural food for child hood, and very often it is refused by the . youngsters because It Is poor or badly kept. Tepid milk is a nauseous mess on a hot day, but'mllk must not be drunk too cold either, particularly when children are warm and-tired and are inclined to take their beverages at a gulp. If the household has that very precious blessing a cellar the best way to keep milk is to put It In care fully cleansed and sunned bottles, which can be covered, and then set them. on the cellar floor. The coolness of this underground chamber will keep milk at Just the right temperature and also preserve more of Its delicious quality than if it were put on the ice: As to the child becoming overheated on a hot day, the mother taking her little flock away from the possibilities of getting medical aid should under stand some of the simple treatments for this condition. We are told that the symptoms of sunstroke are head ache, dizziness, falntness, weakness of the .knees and "seeing double," . also that becoming overheated fosters this very great calamity. So don't wait for anything but the burning flush, the white lips and panting breath of the child who has been playing too hard, and. treat him at once for heat. Re duce the temperature of the body by sponging the child with .teRld water, doctored with, the ammoniated violet water or any cologne the perfume and ammonia are in themselves stim ulating and make the child lie down in a cool, quiet room. If its tempera ture continues to rise, apply cloths dipped in ice water to the back of the neck and to the hands. . The worst phases of heat exhaustion are treated practically like sunstroke. The patient Is stripped and put to bed In a darkened room and cracked ice is applied - to the head, neck, back and hands. No stimulants are given, the least drop of whisky being very dan gerous at this time. Nose bleed Is very common in hot weather, and quite an 'alarming flow of blood sometimes comes from the least overheating, if the child is sub ject to the annoyance. The treatment of this Is. very simple. Do not bend the head over. Apply cold water or a cloth filled with cracked ice to the back of the neck tand the bridge of the nose. If it is convenient, put the child's feet in water as hot as can be borne; lean the head back and tell the little suf ferer to take long breaths through the nose. Also try and make the child snuff up a strong solution of alum in water, or vinegar and water In equal parts. Never let the child see that you are frightened over the nose bleed. KATHERINE MORTON.
