MASTIC, CITRON, COPPER
FASHIONABLE SHADES
Roman Stripes and Scotch Plaids Promised for Fall Airy Black Tulle
Hats Are Practical Smart Shoes Almost Heelless.
NEW YORK, June 2S. (Special.)
Mastic, citron and copper are
enormously fashionable shades in
Tarls at the moment. Copper Is partic
ularly the fad, and while a good deal
of this color is unpleasant in Summer
weather, touches of it here and there
are most effective. A frock of cream
batiste with machine-embroidered tunic
and sash of pale turquoise, seen at
Longchamps last month had a clinging
skirt of copper satin which showed
through the machine embroidery in ef
fective style. A parasol of cream lace
over pale blue silk had a handle of
bronzed wood tipped at ferule and knob
with polished copper.
Roman stripes and Scotch plaids are
promised for Fall, and already these
bright effects are creeping into Summer
costume. A tailleur, worn at Belmont
Park last week, was of navy blue lans
downe with blue buttons and blue cord
ed silk pipings at the seams of the coat
Around the hips was knotted a tasseled
sash of blue and green checked taffeta.
White eponge. crepe and embroidered
batiste frocks, worn at country club
affairs, have sashes of bavadere and
Roman striped ribbon, and some of the
colors used are brilliantly gay.
Fur touches up many of the Paris
frocks piquantly, though such trimming
is never looked upon kindly in America,
in Summer time; for the climate here
through July and August makes even
the thought of fur intolerable. A di
aphanous gown of net and machine em
broidery, worn at Deauville recently,
had a tiny line of gray fur around the
edge of the sleeve, and tunic and also
around the edge of a shirred net hat.
One big red rose at the girdle made a
splendid splash of color In the white
and gray costume.
Almost heelless are the ultra smart
English walking boots in mannish style.
These boots have pointed, receding
toes, low buttoned tops and heels
scarcely lift the foot above the pave
ment. These new boots are delightfully
comfortable, but they are neither grace
ful nor dainty and look best in tan
leather, accompanying tailored or ath
letic garb. Patent leather boots with
buttoned tops of gray suede or dull
black kid are much more attractive
with soft, draped skirts, and with white
frocks white buttoned boots are in
order.

strawberry jelly lies in the fact that
this fruit is not rich In the acids and
pectin essential for success in jelly
making. The amount of pectin varies
in different fruits, and. in the same
fruit at different stages of ripening.
It also varies with the rainfall im
mediately preceding gathering. Sweet,
fully ripe fruits are always less good
for jelly-making than are slightly under-ripe
fruits. Fruit gathered soon
after rain is also not good. Some fruit
may contain enough pectin for Jelly
making, but not enough acid. If you
suspect this, test the fruit juice for
pectin by mixing one or two table
spoons (equal quantities) of fruit juice
and grain alcohol (not wood alcohol).
If a gelatinous precipitate Is formed,
pectin is present, and with a little ad
ditional tartaric or citric acid a good
textuTe may be secured, even though
the juice refuses to "jell" when com
bined, with sugar alone.

"RAG" MANIA INFECTS
STAID DANCERS OF OLD
One-Stepping and "Trotting" Enjoyed By Folks Lately Content to Spec
tate . Masquerades Are to Be Popular.
EW YORK, June 28. (Special.)
Dancing is the fad Just now. All
the world is dance mad and it Is
the "American" dance that has set
everybody to one-stepping and "trot
ting" in time to ragtime music Even
staid middle-aged folk whose dancing
days so they declared a twelvemonth
ago are over, have learned the new
steps; and old. bachelors who' refused
to waltz and two-step at the pleadings
of distressed, hostesses now gambol
gayly, so that no more debutante wall
flowers adorn the walls and are the de
spair of ballgivers.
It Is the informality of the modern
dances that has won the hearts of men
who found the formality and conven
tionality of the old-fashioned dances a
bore. It is easy to turkey trot, too.
Agility and endurance count for more
than grace and nobobdy feels self-conscious
about doing the steps wrong. As
danced by society folk here and in
London. Paris and Vienna, the turkey
trot, the tango and the grapevine are
not at all vulgar or otfenjive, but are
really delightful dances and are full of
fun and good exercise, with little that
the moralist could object to.
Fourth of July masquerades promise
to be popular his year of dance mania,
for the Continental costumes are
charmingly picturesque and are becom
ing to old as well as young wearers.
The looped-up overdresses and quilted
petticoats of the feminine gowns dis
play pretty ankles to perfection and
powdered hair is fascinatingly flatter
ing above patches and bright eyes.
The buff and. blue of Continental mil
itary costume is most effective for mas
querade wear, but the conventional so
cial costume of the Continental beau, a
graceful costume of light-colored satin,
accompanied, by lace frills, buckled
slippers, the knee breeches and silk
hose, which reveal shapely calves as
successfully as quilted petticoats reveal
dainty ankles. The cocked hat and white
wig with black ribbontied queue are in
keeping with the costume. The beau
of '76 wears a natty suit of pale blue
satin braided with silver. His ruffles are
of Mechlin lace and his cocked hat ot
black velvet.
Hissing the villain in- a show Is ap
plause, of a kind, but it must be hard
for the heavy actor to learn to enjoy it.
SUpper That Will Stay on the Foot.
M
iis x women are unable to wear
pumps because the low-cut pump
falls off at the heel the moment the
leather has become the least bit
stretched particularly if the foot Is
slender and the heel is narrow in pro
portion to the toe. Even the Colonial
pump with its closer fit over the in
step and around the heel, soon becomes
loose on a very slender foot, and much
more comfort Is obtained by the wear
ing of a buttoned strap slipper which
never sags off. The ankle-strap slip
per has gone completely out of fashion,
but there are various smart types of
me Duttoned strap model, one of which
is pictured. This slipper has the long.
receding line of toe now favored, and
a neat buckle of cut steel adds a touch
of gaiety.
Buttoned footwear is fashionable at
the moment, and buttoned oxfords, as
well as buttoned strap slippers, are
worn with summery frocks, though
buttoned boots of patent leather or
white buckskin are considered in best
taste with formal costumes or street
tailored wear.
Summer Kitchens May Be

Much. Time Out of Doors.
rOO many utensils to be kept bright
and clean are a burden to the soul
when the soul yearns to be other
where, enjoying the sunset .light, the
morning breeze or soft afternoon airs
under the whispering pines. The bun
galow kitchen especially if the mis
tress of the home expects to do the
cooking herself, should be adequately,
but simply furnished. A few utensils
and those the most convenient should
be the rule.
If a tireless cooker can be afforded
it will pay for Itself 10 times over In
comfort and convenience. What Joy,
Indeed, to put all one's dinner In the
cooker while breakfast dishes are be
ing washed up, and then to spend
the morning on the beach, care-free,
knowing that all one will have to do
when dinnertime arrives will be to set
the daintily cooked meal on the table,
smoking hot and perfectly done.
A double boiler is the "sine qua non"
of kitchen comfort. Besides cereals,
the faithful boiler will cook custards,
sauces and steamed puddings all by It
self, while one does something else,
with no worry about scorching of the
ingredients In the boiler. A casserole
Is another Indispensable. It is impos
sible to realize what delicious ragouts
may be prepared of leftovers in a cas
serole until one has tried it. Last
night's roast beef or ends of steak will
become an inexpressibly tender and
tasty stew if committed to the mercies
of the casserole along with a few
knowing seasoning ingredients. A
covered self-basting pan is another
time and trouble-saver when one wants
to enjoy Sunday morning In the ham
mock and let the chicken for dinner
attend to Itself. An egg beater, a
cream whip, a food chopper, a particu
larly sharp knife for shaving thin
slices, and cake pans which require no
greasing, are among the indlspensables.

guests or every hotel and boarding-

to impure blood and its sluggish action.
Your appetite and energy can be re
gained by taking, before each meal, a
tablespoonf ul of a mixture composed
of one ounce of kardene, dissolved in a
half pint of alcohol, to which is added
half a cup of sugar and hot water to

Mary C: Of course excessive flesh
worries you, but do not take chances
with violent exercise and exaggerated
dieting. You had better use the simple
but effective flesh reducer which you
can make at home. Buy four ounces of
parnotis from any druggist, dissolve
in m pints scalding water. Allow to
cool, strain and take a tablespoonf ul
before each meal. Continue the course
until you reach normal weight.

To Regain a Healthy,
Girlish Complexion
(From the Feminine World.)
If you would have a clear, fresh,
girlish complexion, one ounce of ordi

this direction more than shelves full
of cosmetics. It produces a natural
beauty. This wax, procurable at any
drugstore, completely absorbs a bad

skin underneath. Its work is done so
gradually, day by day, that no incon
venience Is caused. The wax Is applied
at night, like cold cream, and removed
in the morning with soap and water.
Another valuable rejuvenating treat
