Attractiveness and Comfort.
MOST amncks are comfy gar

Is particularly so. It la hand
kerchief linen, of course, and white,
By way of deeoratlveneii It boasts ye
old time smocking, French knots, flow
ers, tassels and dainty briar stitch In
pinks and blues. The clever arrange
ment of the smocking Is worthy of
note, so are the tassels. Now who but
an extremely clever designer would
have thought of putting them neither
at the beginning nor yet quite at the
end of the collar, but Just In the mid
dle of each aide where they would be
least expected? Aren't the pockets
cleverly handled? Beginning with a
quite wide strap complementary to the
belt, they curve off into the amplest
of pockets. Here again the touch- of
embroidery appears. And that ap
plique on the collar Is adorable. It Is
a smork, comfy dainty . and what is
even more rare In a smock trig.
THIS sllp-over-the-bead smork,
with the V-sbaped opening In
front as Is shown on the sec
ond II ft re, has become a familiar
sight, as baa also the smock with
the aide or middle front fasten
ing, but the smock that faatena on the
shoulder, la somewhat out of the or
dinary. Tli la particular model la of
leaf tan linen and Is enriched by
brown band embroidery. The yoke
which serves to form a collar at the
back is an Interesting affair, and along
with Ha round neck line has a very
youthful eqect on the wearer. The
inevitable pockets are Introduced In
he form of pointed affairs with flaps
that turn back and are held In plane
by pearl buttons. The pointed Idea
youthful effect on the wearer. The
fullness of the garment Is held In
comfortably by mesns of the belt,
which Is buttoned st the front. A
necessary part of the wardrobe has the
smock become. It Is most convenient
for the girl who engages In athletics,
for It obviates the necessity for wear
ing a corset, concealing the lines of
the figure. Of course, if It is made of

ON'T you love to wear something
that you know stands out from
everything else because it has
good lines and a feature that stamps
It brimful of character? You couldn't
help but experience Just such a feel
tng In the white washable satin smock
with Its facing of azure blue satin In
number' three. The big feature of this
model is the use of contrasting ma
terial to fare the hem. Notice bow
enough of the blue protrudea to form
a piping. Can't you imagine the won
derful effect of the blue revere on the
complex of the wearer? Simple blue
etltches Introduce the color of the deep
turn-back cuffs. The model is of tbe
sllp-over-tbe-bead type and Its full
ness is confined with a blue cord and
tassel.

One egg, two cups sugar, one cup
tour milk or half milk and cream, to
which add one teaspoouful of baking so

taste. When I use half cream I use less
lard. Sometimes 1 use less flour and
drop from spoon. Then agatu 1 use a
tablespoon i ul molasses to flavor the last
third, and when dropped this makes
three pie tins full, six drops in each tin.
Over one tinful 1 sprinkle sugar, to the
others I add currants. Very nice for

Isn't This Cape Just Ills Most Attractive Thing.
PHIDK has often been charged with keeping people warm, but In these
dsys when Uauie Fashion demands furs In midsummer. It requires
positive coursge for people to comply. Perhaps it is si mixture of
pride and vanity which keeps people cool, for there Is no denying that
sumnier furs are Immensely becoming.
But this little shoulder cape Is a graceful compromise between comfort
and fashion. It Is made of cloth In such excellent imitation of fur that
one would almost be deceived Into believing it were fur were It not for

NE has Implicit faith in the un-
sophlstication of sweet sixteen,
one thinks of her not as a fas
tidious young person who wants to be
every bit as well-outfitted and as well
groomed as Mother, but rather as a
wild young thing who doesn't care a
snap about chic. All wrong, the play

and the altogether charming band
treatment White handkerchief linen
hemstitched in blue would achieve it
beautifully. It is put on stole fashion
over the shoulders, snd finally mitred
into the underarm seam. This clever

White might be used also for collar
and cuffs. Now for the skirt In

for the surprise here. Tose pockets
perfectly "breathe" unusual. A quite
wide band of material slashed a few
inches below the two buttonholes and

pockets make them comparatively easy
to put Into practice.
Isn't green Just the coolest color
that you can think of. and isn't ging

for the foundation, and two buttons
tn front and two more in back are suf
