v The dyed-to-match laces are the most
noticeable feature of th newer gowns.
It is a useful fancy for th economlc
ally inclined, as well as ior tne uiira
fashlonable, for while the latter has
merelv her own last to consult and
hiinrinnt onnortunitles for testing it.
the former is able by dint of good man
agement to put together a littl of this
and a little of that and produce quite
as good aa effect. - Th dyeing is not
beyond the powers of any one who Is
inclined ; to take th trouble, and the
harmony of color In contrasting mate
rials la on 01 tna prettiest moae.
The Rose Festival has brought out
some charming gowns, and one who
cam from a larger place than Portland
was nearo to exciaim: now mucu iui

was cl r oriiELiiu suwn vr iiui, ui
attracted attention for its simplicity
and its daintiness was of a charming
' blue. oerhaos the eau d nil. would nam
it. It was most Ilk an aqua-marine
, with Ha suggestion of green. The Do
dice was cut wltjt a deep Dutch neck
and the long armhole, or cap sleeve,
both of which were bordered by a band
'about two inches wide of Irish crochet
j lace dyed to - match. - Th - lnnr yoke
i ana long sieevea were ox nner. taco,
probably a Valenciennes, also dyed to
i match the gown. There was a wide
girdle with drooping ends which were
: taaseled. With It was worn a hat In
natural-toned straw, faced with satin
of the shade of the gown and set oil by
drooping ostrich plumes of black. It
win not an elaborate dree. iuLJt was
very fetching. . - , ,
". While many of us may not - wear
quite so elaborate gowns, we may all
be put- together correctly, and this
moves one to remark that it is more
noticeable than ever and less pardon
able, to see a ara ping placquet or a
shirtwaist and akirt which ar not on
aneaklna terms. Really when buttons
and buttonholes ara so cheap, It la bard
to see how any one who can scrape up a
nickel for these commodities can be
'..forgiven . for ..coming -apart,;":' vi---'-"--
- Shirtwaists should be strengthened
at the waist Una in the back by a piece
of tape, and three buttona can be sown
to this with good strong- thread. But
tonholes to match may be worked in th
akirt band and the two ao nrmiy at
tached that ther Is no possibility of
escape.';. Besides the feeling of security
that is given by being beyond criticism
In this respect, there ia the fact of be
lng unnoticeable in publio which Is the
am qua non or tne correct woman. :
The 'platted skirts which have been
so satisfactory are slowly being left
behind In the search for novelty. . They
will still be worn, however, for the
tailored street suit, and, no better mode
has been auggested. -;. Certainly the
slinking mummy fled gown which is set
ting the east at odds will be lost in the
shuffle before it gets over the Rockies.
I hav given some space this week to
a discussion of the bizarre output of
the French shops which startled . Paris
at the race course. Much can be made,
of .a little by many repetitions, and no
ooiiDi tnese mucn tamed oi gowns are
worse in the recital than in appearance.
Yet they must have been ugly, to say
the least, and an ugly dress has no ex
cuse for Its being in this enlightened
age. It is'scarcely worth talking about

patrons will consent to.be made a tool
for this purpose, but the whirl of fash
ion allows no time for reflection. The
fact that it is called the "sheath." akirt
and' the "scabbard" skirt damns it for
reasonable and -. modest : womanhood.
Better, far better, the Roman toga or
. the Grecian gown of sweeping draperies
and jeweled girdle. These represent a
mode which, if not uniformly becoming,
recommends itself a modestly conceal

CURIOSITY has spread. In all the
dressmaking shops of Paris today
they ar talking about dlrectolre
styles, where they should be worn and
jwbers not worn, whether they can be
adopted to any one not possessing the
physical perfection of the professional
model, : Som of the leadina- dressmak

dream of making such things. Per

fondness for the dlrectolre. It also

Mme. Pa a u In. who Is another arrest

may wear, also assured the correspond
ent that the dlrectolre style was quit
impossible. . "As for what I am doing
you may see for yourself." she added
amiably., At a signal a lithe young

Dreeoll. Ducet. . the rue de la Pali
generally, seemed to be just as severe
in nassinr iudament on the dlrectolre
as had Worth and Paquin. There was
a change of note In the establishment

li was Mme. Liacroix wno lea the way
in settina -the stvle - for the d resent
scabbard form of attire. "I have been
patiently at work for years," she said,
''educating tna public to a finer appre-i
dlrectolre fashion ' than It la of crino

' M. Landolff, who dresses In charming
fashion ' many of the most attractive
actresses on the French stage, says that
any style which seta off or enhances
the natural charms of a woman is te
be welcomed. He is a disciple, or
varni. "Tweaty-flve yeara ago we be
gan to clothe our customer in clinging
stuffs that showed off the lines snd
movements of the wearer. That consti
tutes good dressing. I can hardly be
lieve, thnusrh. that the dlrectolre style

EW YORK, May 80. June Is her
again, the month for weddings,
and- which la thought by many to
be the prettiest time of the year. 'The
styles In bridal gowns hav not changed
much sine the April weddings. Satin
of the soft, supple variety called satin
ondoyant or satin antique la still chosen
by this year's bride. ' There) as some

elation of what women's dresses should
really be. Now that the style has
really come to stay, no amount of crit
icism can check It. The dlrectolre form
wlth the split skirt is not the style of
Bylphide or scabbard dress. Let me
show you."
She spoke a few words to an attend
ant A minute later a young woman,
fair, beautifully coif fed, slim and wil
lowy, entered, wearing one of the very
gowns that had attracted so much at
tention yesterday at Longchamps. It
was beautifully molded to her body,
from the breast down. One could al
most believe that the dress was the
sole garment that adorned her shapely
person. There was certainly no room
for frills or frou-frou, for lingerie of
any kind. Her tread was as silent and
lithe aa a panther's,
he paused In front of us, then slow
ly turned. On the right side the skirt
was split to the waist line, caught to-
frether loosely with ornamental but
ons down as far as the knee. From
the knee down the skirt was open. Be
neath could be seen a silken underskirt,
absolutely plain and clinging a tightly
to the person of the wearer as, say.
paper does to the walL . (
'"The dress is absolutely simple," said
Madame. "'Therein lies its chief beau
ty. ' Both It and the wearer must be
perfectly made.. Only two garments
cover the body. There Is first a tight,
elaetlo silk jersey, to which is attached
the aoft. clinging Tinderskirt, which is
visible at the side. The stockings ar
attached to hooks in the skirt placed at
the proper height. This dispenses with
bothersome garters and holds the under
garment in place. The outer garment,
the robe. Is made to serve as its own
corset, the bodice being strengthened
with a little whalebone., not enough,
however, to destroy its suppleness. As
a matter of fact, the place of the corset
la taken by the jersey, which is knitted
strong and tight It extends from th
breast down almost to the knees."
"And ia there really a great demand
for such attire?" - ' .
Madame . smiled ' radiantly. "Could
anything more beautiful be- Imagined?"
"But every one is pot built like your
mannequins." z -:. 'i ; : .
-.- "They need not b dlrectolre, they
can be Greek," v , r
As a matter of fact, Mme. Margalne
Lacroix aays that the dresses now at
tracting attention are more Greek than
they are dlrectolre. . They were orig
in&llv cooled on the beautifully draned
figurines of Tanagra, so well known to
all art lovers. The original dress In
this style was exhibited as long ago as
1889, and nas naa more or less ex
tensive vogue among ; the elect ever
since, .' .
Artists and artistes bav alwavs been
divided on .th- question of its merits.
Boldlni, who probably paints the por
traits of more women of fashion than
any other artist In Paris, says that the
value or any given atyie, irom an artis
tic point of view, is equal to the value
of the woman who wears It Thla Is

The Bottle-Fed Baby,
From the Ladles' World.
f sIB bottle-fed baby, especially in
- I : summer, Is a source of great care
Iand anxiety to the mother. The
preparation of lta food requires
great Judgment and patience. In
the first place,, there la the outfit to be
considered. There should be bottles suf

every feeding during the 24 hours, for
ii- im generally pest to prepare mat
amount of food at one time, though
som may prefer to do it twice in the
day. As a general thing, the milk has
to be heated to destroy the germs.
When It Is boiled It is said tq have
been sterilised; when It Is brought to
a temperature less than boiling (150
to 170 degrees) it is said to have been
pasteurised, so that -a kettle to hold
the bottles is necessary and a ther
mometer which reglstera 112 degrees to
show the amount of heat applied. A
double boiler can be used,' but it Is
better to get on of . the sterilisers or
pasteurisers which com for th pur
pose and which are not expensive.
A measuring glass is essential. One
Is convenient which has marked on It

to describe the treatment of cow's milk
to make it resemble human milk. As

An Essay tor Mothers. -
Bv Louisa D. Mitchell, i
On of th most beautifully humane
truth that we come ln contaot with
ln Ufa is that our last chance to re
form lies somewhere afar off in a re
mote future toward wnicn we can work
our circuitous way through a tangle sf
abject failures and witn tne-' lantern
of hope ln our hands. It ia this thought
that snouia sustain every parent upon
whose life the blight of an errlnar child
has fallen and whose disheartening ef-
rorts -to save mm nave neen in vatn.
The temptations you have had to coin
bat all your days and perhaps still
face may pass your boy or girl . un
noticed, and Just because you have
looked for them to develop in your
children and have failed to discover
them, you have not been able to under
stand those to which they have been
exposed and perhaps fallen under. The
chemistry of inheritance Is a curious
thing. Tour worst vice may be trans
muted Into a virtue in your child, or,
f&lllnar certain elements necessarr. : u
worse fault Tour secret love of drink
may never find In him a victim, .but the
moral weakness you have will show in
him ln some other form of. vice that:
will appall you and cause you much
troubled speculation as to its source.
The laws of nature work with a pre
cision that Is stunning, but always re
liable, so that those who sow can al
ways depend upon a harvest.
Reproaches In the hour of his wrong
doing scathing criticisms arising from
the deptha of your bitter disappoint
ment and mortification over your child's -defection,
are a mistake. The alienee
of your patience and your efforts to
help him surmount each temptation
wltn your sympathy will do more for
you and him than you can imagine. The
shame of failure is a desperate thing
for a decent human being to face. It
has one of two great result more
earnest effort toward steadfastness of
purpose, or lower depths of degradation
where conscience awakes only at in
tervals. It is often only after our parenthood
has suffered a crushing sense of defeat
that we suddenly awake to an Illumin
ating truth, and then realise that thin
Py pf ours had to get his lessons cf
life first-hand, despite our best efforts
to prevent him from doing so. It is
the old story of his Infancy experience
first and book facts second. The aver
age boy -often the girl, too wants to
touch and taste and see for himself
the very things that he is denied. Jut
here Is where th most careful parental
