of these white suits I noticed the um
brella outline, and I found It admira
ble, writes Idalia de Villlers, Paris cor
respondent of the London Globe.
One model which pleased me espe
cially had an umbrella skirt which
buttoned up the front and which had
large Bide pockets. The coat was half-
length, with a shaped baBque and a
waist belt which buttoned on at the
side seams. There was a plain roll
over collar and wide turn-back cults.
Both collar and cuffs were caught
down by Ivory buttons and the coat
was lined with chintz silk which
showed pale blue and pink flowers on
n white background.
Some of the more elaborate Redfern
suits have pipings and buttons made
of glove kid. This idea was success
fully carried out on a large suit in
hedgesparrow-egg blue, which was ac
companied by a shirtwaist made of
fine white organdie muslin. All the
pipings on the coat and skirt were
done in hedgesparrow-blue glove kid
and there were rows of tiny blue kid
buttons on the front of the high-
nocked blouse.
Redfern seenm fond of lemon-yellow
lines, one of the most popular novel
ties of the present season. The Parl-
slennes are charmed with lemon-yellow
linen and muslin and they have the
coBtumes made of these materials fin
ished with sashes in ivory-white or
Belgian blue taffeta.
Lemon-yellow may be said to be the
color of the season, for dresses and
for hats. It is specially in demand

wraps which are thrown on over old-

ered with very fine black braidings.
The coat opened over a white linen
waistcoat which was fastened with
ball buttons made of cherry-red enam
el and there was an effective touch of
dull blfae in the lining.
Colored linen coatees are the rage
of the hour. They are worn over
linen, Berge, cloth and silk skirts, and
in all circumstances they are decora
tive and novel. Pansy-purple linen,
lingd with black and white striped
silk, makes a beautiful coat for wear
ing with white skirts. The same may
be said for loose garments made of
Jofire-blue or rose Dubarry-pink linen.
ONLY A HINT OF MILITARISM
American Women Have Refused to Go
to Extremes in Styles—New Tup
ban Models.
Though there was, before the Paris
openings, much talk of the military in
fluence in hats and clothes, it has been
accepted, especially in suits, only in
a conservative way. Today, the smart
est tailored suit is much plainer than
it has been for many seasons, for it
has borrowed line rather than trimming
of the military coats. The pocket and
the belt have been adopted, to be Bure,
but in their simplest form.
Among the first spring-offerings in
millinery were small dark turbans
trimmed with white wings in a rather
daring manner and turbans with n
light or white top, accented by* a bow.
The well-gowned woman has chosen
these two models in preference to the
more somber ones. Flowers are cer
tainly worn and so are cockades of all
kinds, but the bow on’a dark hat is
usually white or beige and the wings
are.almost invariably white.—Vogue.-
Useful Bag for Bathing Dress.
Bovod together at the baseband half
way up the sides; above this the ma-
terial is bound at the edges with braid.
The opening of the bag is stiffened
on either side with pieces of cane, the
material being turned over and
hemmed down and the cane run
through.
Quick Way to Thread a Needle.
To thread a needle when the light
is bad and it is hard to find the eye,
put a piece of white cloth or paper
back f>f the needle. You will be sur
prised to see how quickly the thread
will go through.
The handles of the bag are made of
cord securely tied to the pieces of
cane and it will be noticed that there
is one long handle and one short han
dle. The long handle is slipped
through the short handle in the man
ner shown in. diagram A at the top of
the illustration, and when the bag is
so closed, it can be carried by the
long handle and cannoC possibly come
open.
Initials of the owner or the words
"Bathing Dress” can be roughly em
broidered. upon one side of the bag.

After Twenty years Son Produces Fa
ther’s Will—Testator's Instructions
Had Been Obeyed.
Undiscovered for nearly twenty
years after his death, the will of Jo
hann Michael Muller has boon offered
tor probate at Baltimore by his son,
John G. A. Muller. The testator died
March 13, 1896, having made his w|ll
on May 31, 1889.
The paper, yellow and musty with
age, left all Mr. Muller'B property to
his wife Elizabeth Barbara Muller.
She died April 30, 1916, and her son
was appointed administrator^ of her
estate. He had known of the exist
ence of the will for several months
prior to his mother's death, but since
all the property had been enjoyed by
Mrs. Muller as her husband had de
sired, it was not thought necessary
to probate the will at that time.
The son says the property will now
be divided between his two brothers
and himself, since his mother died in
testate. The exact value of the estate
has not been determined, but it is
made up almost entirely of parcels of
real estate.

AN EASY WAY TO GET
RID OF UGLY PIMPLES
Bathe your face for several minutes
with resinol soap and hot water, then
apply a little resinol ointment* very
gently. Let this stay on ten minutes,
and wash off with resinol soap and
more hot water, finishing with a dash
of cold water to close the pores. Do
this once or twice a day, nnd you will
be astonished to find how quickly the
healing resinol medication soothes
and cleanses the pores, removes pim
ples and blackheads, and leaves the
complexion clear and velvety.
Resinol ointment and resinol soap

Daddy Happily in Possession of
Knowledge as to Where One Vac
uum Was Located.
The good man had just been In
formed by the only person who could
possibly possess the. information that
he hadn't an ounce of sense, that he
had never had an oitnee of sense, and
that there was not the remotest
chance that he ever would have an
ounce of sense.
Having been assured on these
points, the good man turned to his
paper, only to be Interrupted by his
young son and heir:
“Father,” said the boy, "what Is a
vacuum and where can I find one?”
"My boy," replied the good man, "If
we are to assume that your mother is
qualified to speak on the subject, I
possess the only real vacuum In the
'neighborhood, and, for your further In
formation. it is situated just between
my collar and the glossy open space
where I used to grow hair.”
“You mean your dome?”
"Yes, my son, that is the family vac
uum."
Natural Procedure.
When telling the story of the Pil
grim Fathers to the children of a pri
mary grade in a large city the leader
tried to impress upon them the fact
that the country was barren at that
time. Later they were told of the
planting, the harvest, the great feast,
and the thankful attitude of those
early settlers. Finally she asked:
“What did the Pilgrims do after the
great feast?”
After a moment’s silence a little
girl said, “They went by the moving
pictures.”

“Have a piece of this old English
cheese?"
“Why, it looks like Swiss cheese;
it's full of holes.”

Modernizing the Roundup.
Each year seemB to give the auto
mobile a new hold on life. The war

battle line is estimated at thirty days.
But It is not only the war zone that

The latter haB begun to rob the an

bucks up against the four-wheeled
steed.—Wall Street Journal.
