SOCIETY AT THE BAZAARS.
Charity by any Other Name in Just
as Sweet, Especially if That Name
Be Fashion.
Now York, August 25. — When we
think of bazaars, we naturally conjure
up pictureH of fancy work in the name
of charity, even the wholesome odor of
crullers and the picturesque white-iced
cake, but bazaars have outgrown this
honied atmosphere and to-day have
become bazaars of fashion. No longer
do you attend to buy Christmas gifts
and goodies, hut ntoro properly to learn
what to wear and when to wear it, or,
perchance, to show your own new dress.
FASHION FETES IN THE NAME OF C.HAH-
ITY.
Newport, is the setting for some of
these birzaars. Hero on the spacious
lawns of country homes, mannequins
display the very latest, modes from
Paris, vieing in smartness with the
women who eome to see them. There
are tableaux and grand promenades,
and, best of all, you can sip tea and view
them with » conscience free from guile,
for your entrance fee goeB to sweet
charity.
stripes crosswise, while the yoke,
waist, and cuffs had the stripes straight
up and down. There was a sheer vest,
Quaker collar of crisp white swiss, and
sleeves of black georgette crepe, mak
ing a striking contrast with the cuffs
of the silk.
SKIKTS SHOUT ANI) SHORTER STILL.
There Beemed to be no limit to the
shortness of the skirt. The costume
just mentioned was worn with white
kid shoes, and the skirt was so short
that at least an inch of the stocking
showed between the top of the shoe and
the bottom of the skirt. Indeed, many
of the mannequins locked like school
girlB, but shoes are fancy, and skirts
are obviously Bhort to show them. Wo
men want their money's worth. As I
watched the mannequins, I could not
help thinking of the little boy who went
without his coat in December to show
his new suspenders.
BRAID INTRODUCED AS HAT TRIMMING.
There were many new things intro
duced. Perhaps the most interesting no
tion was Hercules braid as hat trim
ming. There is no question of its popu
lurity as dress trimming, but for hats,
the idea was certainly unique. It was
med in three flat bauds on the velvet
brim of a sailor, while the crown was
white satin trimmed with beads. This
sent by a New York modiste.
THE PARASOL REVERSES ITS HANDLE.
It was decidedly a showing of every
thing milady needs for a complete ward
robe. The accessories were as startling
as they were smart. One of the girls
carried a parasol with a swan’s-head
handle on tho top, while what naturally
would be the handle tapered off into
the cap of the walking stick. Though a
bit top heavy, the effect, when opened,
was attractive.
ENTER THE FROCK WITH FLOATING PAN
ELS
Styles were not confined alone to the
mannequins. Society took a keen in
terest in the cause, and there were many
notables present. It seemed as if ev
ery one had put on their best bid and
tucker for the occasion. One woman
who is summering in Maine came down
to be present at the fete. Her gown
was one of the new combinations of
blue serge and Scotch plaid taffeta.
When she Blend still the skirt appeared
to he of the serge, hut when she moved
it broke into foaming panels, displaying
a medium width underskirt of the plaid.
This matched a shoulder and sleeve sec
tion, while the serge was used in a bib
effect on the waist and for the deep
cuffs.
SILKS AND SERGES THE FABRICS FOR
FALL.
Many similar effects were to be seen.
Serge seems to be even more popular
than in past seasons. This is, no doubt,
due to the fact that it is so hard for the
French mills to weave their novelties.
However, the serges are smart and the
women seemed content to use these in
TIu* drctR with floating pnnolH foaturinur a smart
combination of plaid taffeta and plain strife.

A costume of satin-striped faille showing the new
KMuntlet cuff und pleated skirt.
The latter part of last week the b ■<
z isr of tlie season was held at the home
of one of the leaders of the Newport
set. In artistic tableaux by Grecian
summer houses, all the summer modes
were reviewed and predictions made
for the coming season.
STRIPED FAILLE A FAVORED FABRIC.
Every dress showed at least two ma
terials; heavy faille silk was a favored
fabric. One tall blonde manne|uin
wore a dress of striped satin and gros-
grain silk which was particularly new
and attractive. Its very simplicity
baffles description, its charm being in
thj clever use of the stripes. The skirt
had a pleated lower section, kilted one
might say, for it was straight and laid
in deep folds from the hip to the bot
tom. This was cut with the deep
Disagreeable Calomel Is Yielding
To Pleasant Liv-ver-Lax.
Physicians generally agree that the
unpleasant, nauseating effects of calo
mel are due to the undesirable violent
action it has on the system. For a long
while various substitutes have been
tried, but it was only recently thai the
reallv wonderful remedy, l.iv-Ver-I^ax,
was prepared successfully by L. K.
Grigsby.
Liv Ver Lax has al! the good and
none of the bad effects of calomel. It
is a necessity in every home, always
being ready to cleanse the sluggish
liver and bile clogged system, with no
unpleasant after-effects.
Liv-Vkk Lax is guaranteed to give
satisfaction, or your money will he
immediately refunded. Insist on the
original bearing the likeness of 1.. K.

It isn’t a good plan to collide with a

combination with the taffetas and
failles. There were some smart effects
with striped taffetas, and the plain dark
blue grosgrain combined with serge
made rich dresses. Scotch plaids were
much in evidence, but the tones were so
dark and rich they could scarcely be
said to contrast with the blue.
RUSSIAN BOOTS AGAIN IN EVIDENCE.
Several of the women were booted
according to the Russian fashion. The
woman who wore the floating panel
dress described above, had the long
boots in black patent leather. They
were made the same as riding boots,
wide enough at the ankle for the foot
to slip through. There were other
Russian boots in fawn leather trimmed
with tan; one of the mannequins wore
a pair of white kid boots trimmed with
black patent leather.
SOCIETY VIES WITH THE MANNEQUIN.
Indeed, society seemed to be booted
an 1 gowned as smart, if not smarter,
than the mannequins themselves. The
whole atmosphere breathed of fashion.
There is something really fascinating
about these women, sipping tea and
watching women wear the gowns that
they themselves may wear later on.
That Labor Day has gradually been
given over almost wholly to sport and
recreation is a cheering evolution.
Crowded stands at the baseball parks,
packed excursion trains and steamers, j
full bathing beaches, teeming parks, j
and standing-room signs in the theaters
on Labor Day bespeak a prosperous j
and contented country. Were men out j
of work, factory chimneys destitute ot
smoke, spindles idle, and mines closed j
down we would see more m tss meetings
on Labor Dav. Something approaching
the first of May celebrations in Euro- I
pean countries might be feared. But i
who in this land looks forward to Labor '
Day with feelings of conce n? When ]
has a political crisis hinged on (he dem
onstrations of Lahot Day?
