B LACK watered silk paranoia are very popular this year The handles are always elaborate; very often they are exceedingly cost ly. Carved jade is one of the latest materials for parasol handles; and finely carved quartz inset with old paste is also much noed. And w hile speaking of Jade I must not neglect to aa> that small bracelets of this stone are the “clou” of the moment. These little brackets are slipped on over the wrist and two or three are worn at the same time • • • The millinery of the present sea son is admirably picturesque. Quan tities of tulle and lace are being used, immense capeline shapes are com posed entirely of pleated tulle, cloche shapes are covered with fine black lace Everything is done to obtain Old World effects. The leading milliners are haunting the famous picture gal leries of Paris In the hope of finding fresh and unexpected ideas. • * • It l« now the fMshlon to open the corsaRes of lace and muslin gowns intended for day wear in a generous V which ends Just above the waist line. Certainly, there Is a chemisette underneath, a chemisette of exqui site fine lace or of embroidered mus lin. In some cases, but this becomes more and more rare, a gulmpe of < obweb tulle is worn. In addition the sleeves of afternoon gowns are fre quently transparent In many cases they are exceedingly long, reaching to the wrists and well over the hands, but they are almost always transpa'- ent. • • • * one-piece “erge dress is useful, especially In the mountains, where he weather is cool and the climb ing is rough. It can be made in Peter Tom style for younger women, or with a sailor collar applied to a simple, fron■-closed, one-piece frock for old er women. It should have a skirt with ample fullness about the ankles. This fullness can he arranged gracefully, bo that the skirt still re tains a straight look; on«* of the new’ outing skirts has the fulness but toned under the side seams in the forms of tucks, which can be un buttoned when necessary. Heavy soled tan shoes, with medium heels, o r white canvas shoes of substantial make are the most comfortable for- climbing. and tramping, as well. • • • In some of the newest underwear, crepe de t hine and lace are closely combined. One new style of night gown. for Instance, shows a shadow lace yoke and sleeves, with a skirt of crepe de chine, edged with lace. Underbodices, made entirely of lane and r Dbon. are often attached to crepe de chine petticoats. Chemises, too, of crepe de chine, show deep insets and shoulder straps of lace. • • • The newest tunic is of purely Flor entine shape. It has no sleeves and • t is short, being fastened at the waist by h belt of glove kid studded with precious stones. The hem of such tunics should always be slight ly stiffened, as the whole success of the garment depends on its outline. The skirl should be cleverly draped and very* clinging, while the sho't tunic should stand out at the sides. • • • The newest oarasols are either pa godas in outline, which is to say ex aggeratedly domed; or they are al most flat and bordered with heavy fringes Many of the new paraso’s have little jointed handles, in ‘he Old World style, and nearly all show la’-ge bows of velvet or !*atln ribbon somewhere on the handle. The fiat shapes are sometimes exquisitely em broidered in the Japanese style Tapestry belts of this order look extremely well when worn with coai- « e nf black laffeta or black watered silk; the faded colors of the tapestry being repeated in the hat trimmings or in the embroidereies displayed on collar or re vers. • • * A decidedly smart neck finish can be made with two lengths of one of the full dotted net ruchlngs which are sold by the yard. Get twice enough to go about the neck of the frock. Join the two pieces together with a band of black velvet ribbon, arrang ing one ruching to stand upright about the neck, the other to go the other way. The effect is graceful and easily produced. • • * Stockings with embroidered butter flies about the ankles are made for evening wear. Each wing of the but terflies is spotted with rhinestones Other white silk stockings show em broidered anklets done in white, and still others show lace anklets, made of baby Irish lace insertion. • « * The vogue of the yoke is amazing. Scarcely a gown appears without the transparent inset of net. lace or tulle, and it Is a fashion becoming to ev ery face contributing a softness of line which is always desirable. The phases of the yoke are many, being round, square. U or V shaped, and It la fashioned of all transparent ma terials, from priceless lace to inex pensive malin*. It Is tucked, shirred, pleated or fitted smoothly over the neck, and seldom appears with a high collar.

By Olivette. T 11E scalloped bathing suit is one of the Summer’s fancies. The little dress we portray has a foundation'of gray satin, trimmed in plaid satin of gray and Geneva blue. The suit opens down the front and is trimmed in self-buttons in a double row down its full length. The deep scallops at the bottom are bound in the plaid, and in turn the scalloped swallow-tailed red- injrote of the plaid and the upper sleeve is made kimono fashion and is a continuation of the gray satin yoke which has little half- inch tucks in groups of three. The neck is cut in a modest V and is piped, yoke fashion, in the plaid. They Quit Studies for Factories, Though They Might Have More Schooling. WASHINGTON. July 28—Interest- ing because of its bearing on the tes timony fts to girls’ employment re cently Investigated by the Illinois Senatorial “White Slave” Committee ls» a bulletin Just Issued by the Bu reau of Education It is written after a careful study of trade and labor conditions among girls in Worcester, Mass., preliminary to the establishment of a trade school for girls. The conclusion reached is that from one-half to three-fourths of the girls at work in factories could have had further schooling if they wanted to. or if their parents hail cared to insist on k. More Girls Leave School. The survey shows that the number of girls between 14 and 16 years of age who leave school Is constantly'ln- t Teasing. In the last five years many more girls between those ages left the Worcester schools than can be ac counted for by Increase In the popu lation. Only about 17 per cent of them had finished the grammar schools; most of them left in the sixth and seventh years. Worcester Is taken as a fair Index of any of the manufacturing towns of the country. Why did these girls leave school? Various reasons were assigned by the girls themselves. Some 30 said that they “did not like the school; could not got along with the teacher; were not promoted, or wanted to get to work." Why Girls Quit Studies. Two were working to help pay for a piano. One of these was a cash girl of 14 years who had left the ninth grade to go to work In a department store for $2. I Alter she got $2.50 per week. Another was a girl of 16 from the eighth grade, who went to work in a corpet factory for $1 and rose to $4.82 per week. Still another girl was taking music lessons and contributing to the payments for a piano. In the opinion of the Board of Edu cation conditions such as found at Worcester nmphasize the imperative need for special training of a practi cal sort for girls between 13 and 15. In the main the girls left school sim ply because they disliked the school work. Not getting the kind of training they might have liked and would have profited by, they blindly Joined th" army If shifting. Inefficient, discon tented girls that go from one monot onous factory task to another, and, because of their lack of training, rarely rise above the class of low- paid, unskilled workers. Skirt Too Tight Is Ruled Worthless Court Holds That Even Plea of Fash ion Will Not Hold if Walk ing Is Prevented. Miss Mary Forbes Wears Charm ing Gowns in New Farce of Harold Smith. Special Cable to The American. LONDON, July 26.—Society folk In variably look to the stage for "ad vance fashions.” In the new farce written by Harold Smith, brother of F. E. Smith, the great politician, some charming gowns are worn. Miss Mary Forbes, in act one, wears a simple mauve frock, with touches of black at the neck and waist, and a turn over collar of lace. And one of her gowns is of white silk, with which she wears a short, knitted tiger yellow coat, striped with black. A Neapolitan hat of knitted silk, in the same shade of yellow, is supplemented with a black satin bor der. One of Miss Brough’s dresses is a little morning toilet of black and white bird’s-eye foulard, a strip of raspberry colored silk being let int ) the front like a slip on a man’s coat and caught with a huge black braid motif. An evening gown of “blush rose” satin, veiled in front and behind with garnet colored ninon above blush pink and falling away in front, to show the garnet colored ninon, is an overdress of ivory mousseline de soie, embossed with gold and edged with gold bouil lon fringe, whLe the corsage is of ivory lace. BRIDE AT ALTAR HALTS WEDDING BECAUSE OF DRESS HARRISBURG, IIJ... July 26.—In the County Clerk’s office a marriage ceremony was delayed two hours be cause the bride suddenly discovered she was not properly arrayed. H. R. Northup. 45, and Miss Florence Hart. 43, both of DeKoven, Ky., applied for a license. When Justice Grigsby asked the couple to join hand?, the bride dis- •overed she had on a black skirt. She threw up her hands and exclaimed: “Therp is nothing stirring just yet. No marrying in black for me. No, indeed. It’s a bad omen, and I don’t want to start off bad.” They left the courthouse and two hours later they returned, the bride dressed in white, and the waiting jus tice performed the ceremony. WOMAN, WHO NEVER WORE HAT, NOW 100 YEARS OLD SOMERSET, PA.. July 26.—Mrs. Mattie Crise, who became 100 years old recently, has always lived in the same place, and In her 100 years nev er saw a railroad train, street car or a telephone. She never wore a hat, a knitted hood taking its place. Special Cable to The American. LONDON, July 26.—They that a gayety girl is bom every minute, and I don’t doubt It. Also( I don’t doubt that “Governor” George Edwardes has need for twice as many as nature supplies. You know r exactly the style he wants—the gentle, purring, listless, lissome, Edna May-like, languid, delicate, wistful, pensive, reluctant and Christmas card type. No other type goes in London. ‘ The average American type is not at all popular Sometimes some fervid critic and Impassioned re viewer asserts that she is. * W ell._ 1 assert distinctly—she isn’t. phe must conform to the above require ments. “The pink lady” sirens, for instance, were very harshly criti cised for being loud, not reluctant All of which Is neither here nor there, except to illustrate the fact that in “The Dancing Mistress” at the Royal Adelphi Theater we see another of those things—-formless, chaotic, Invertebrate and unintelli gible—that depend entirely on girls. Malone Arch Girl Setter. In this case she is “set” by T. A. E. Malone, George Edwardes’arch est and most insinuating girl setter (he came over to New’ York to set the "sunshine girl” at the Knick erbocker Theater) to a “book” (so- called) bv James Tanner, to lyrics (alleged) by Adrian Ross and Percy Greenback, and to music not at all up to the usual standard of that de lightful tune manipulator, Lionel Monckton. It doesn’t matter in the least. “The Dancing Mistress” may be as dull os ditch water (which it is. and the comparison is rough on the vi vacity of ditch water); as incom prehensible as a Sanskrit legend, and as lac king In humor as a comic weekly, but it is a success for all that. It Is so beautifully girled in all the dresses of the w'ardrobe. It has girl at a “finishing” school near Brighton; it has girl at a “grand” hotel in Switzerland; it has girl at a swagger London hotel. There you are. It seems to me that the authors of these London musi cal comedies (nearly all of them exactly and positively alike) are not the fanners and Moncktons, but the fathers and mothers of the las sies. “The Dancing Mistress,” by 50 pairs of fathers and mothers, should be the line on the program, by rights. Miss Dare Much Postc^rded. The leading girl at the Adelphi now is little Phyllis Dare, who has taken the place of Gertie Millar. Gertie has been switched to Daily’s, and of her more anon, and some other time. Little Miss Dare, who Is very much postal-carded, is al most terribly pretty. Her prettiness amounts almost to a fault. She is pale and blonde, and thinnish and dainty, and oh, so wistful. She seems to be yearning all the time. She looks out upon a "sea of* heads” in the audience as though she were scared to <#eath. as though she were saying, "Oh, please be good to your little Phyllis, for she is such a timid little puss.” Sometimes this is very effective. It all depends upon your mood— sometimes it is very irritating. You feel that if you opera-glassed her too severely she would swoon be fore ^’our eyes. All of which is, of course, but a pretty little illusion. Miss Dare is by no means new to the business and is really self- possessed. In “The Dancing Mistress” she has one very pretty song with Jose phine Coyne. They are on skis in Switzerland, and of course you know’ what a ski Is. If you don’t I’ll tell that it is a sort of elon gated skate. Little Phyllis and Jo sephine Coyne do this remarkably well. It Is one of the very, very few’ things in “The Dancing Mistress” that are worth while. You wake up for a minute or two from the deadly apathy into which the eventlessness of the proceedings has plunged you, and you feel tempted to applaud. Prettiness No Boon. Another London favorite in “The Dancing Mistress” is Miss Grade Leigh, a very clever and delightful little woman who Isn’t pretty for one moment, and w’ho is therefore a positive relief. Anybody who isn’t pretty in “The Dancing Mistress” is a joy. Anybody who isn’t pretty seems daring and original. A Polalre or a Mlstlnguette among all these zimmering. afternoon tea damselines w’ould be perfectly won derful. Miss Grade Leigh is a capital dancer, and Miss Grade Leigh ha»s a. sense of humor. She has a Scotch dance to offer that—like the ski number mentioned above—rouses you from your torpor. A very plump Frenchw’oman, pro grammed as Mile. M. Caumont, works so hard that she almost fa tigues. She is relied upon for comedy, and she is merciless in her efforts to secure it. Her role Is not at all a funny one, and not even a pretty one, so it is just as well that no English lassie takes it. Caumont is a clever woman, but she seems out of place in this sort of a show’. Then there is Miss El sie Spencer, who Is quite nice in a subdued and coloness London w r ay. But the pretty ones swamp the whole thing—Trixie Hillin, and Gladys Kiorton, and Dorothy Dev- ers and Dorothy Laim. and Isobel Elsom, and Kathleen Vincut, and Gypsy O’Brien—ad lib. “The Dancing Mistress,” I fancy, aims at "The Quaker Girl,” but It is really nothing of the sort—nothing of any sort. It is a beautifully staged, girled and appointed blank. Members Are. Urged to Elect Delegates to International Congress on Hygiene. Mrs. S. G. Hodgson, of Peachtree,** State health chairman of the Gener al Federation of Women's Clubs, has received a letter from Mr*. S. S Crockett, chairman of the Public Health Department of the Federation, railing attention to the great service of the clubwomen of America In help ing to make a success of the fourth International Congress on School Hy giene, which is to be held at Buffalo the last w’eek in August, and which is being supported by the General Fed eration, under the presidency of Mrs. Percy V. Pennybaeker. In her letter Mrs. Crockett says: “The public health committee of the General Federation of Women’s Clubs suggests that women’s organi zations generally shall endeavor to take advantage of the International School Hygiene Congress at Buffalo In August, so that in their respective communities new’ interest may be awakened because of this great in ternational meeting. Please remem ber that all those who attend this congress will be furnished with the printed proceedings—a veritable li brary of scientific Information on the subject.” The suggestion offered by Mrs. Crockett is that the clubw’omen of this State urge the appointment of delegates to the Buffalo congress from the following organizations: School boards, health boards, boards of trade, school improvement associations, pub lic educational associations, parent- teachers’ associations and others. Mrs. Crockett further urges that each school, college, club and public library subscribe to membership in the congress, in order to secure the volume of proceedings. of its daintiness. Crush the wide rose- sprigged ribbon softly about the wa 1 ~*t and stitch featherbone at the front, sides and back. Take a strip Of inch wide satin ribbon and gather It at each edge, drawing the thread as tightly as possible. From this shirred ribbon fashion a bow knot and adorn the renter with a tiny wreath of min iature roses %nd forgetmenots. • • * The opaque petticoat has made i♦ s appearance in the Atlanta depart ment stores It Is made with extra heavy panels, back and front, and as tlie stores advertise, “fills a long- felt want.’ The attention of the man ufacturers of ready-to-wear clothing has been tinned toward under linen that will go with the outer clothes that are fashionable. It took three years for the majority of msnufa - turers to alter the lines of lingerie to suit skirts that women wore, a large problem when one considers that out er clothes are capricious, and there Is no prophet who can tell how long any silhouette will last. * • • It would be a difficult task to give even a slight summary of the con trasting styles that are iti fashion this summer, but if you have clothes to make, it is well for you to know that your day frocks tna> have tulle collars to the ears or a V-shaped dec- olleiage to the bust, full elbow sleeves or long mousquetaire ones, a short skirt, or one that hangs Japanese fashion, for three inches on the floor You may wear a girdle from hip to bust, or a one-mch leather belt, the skirt may be draped up in the back and down in the front, or the other way around; and yet. notwithstand ing the laxity of styles, theTe are cer tain ways of doing things that mak a every gown right and another way which makes them wrong. • • * The variety in waistcoats is very satisfying to the woman who can not wear the masculine type. They are made of satin brocade, of Oriental crepe, of Chinese and Japanese em broidery, of striped silk, of flowered taffeta and figured crepe Some arc* like blouses and are intended to serve as such when the coat is removed. They are open In the neck, quite loos** and soft, are fastened in a straight line down the front with fancy but ton* and have unusually large arm holes with sleeves that go to the wrists. Th'a kind is belted at the waist with a narrow Rirdle of mate rial or contrasting velvet ribbon, and there is a breast pocket which often holds a small handkerchief with a j small colored border. A Question of Paint To paint or not to paint, is the question all women over thirty years of age are up against now. The wo man who makes up Is so numer ous that a natural complexion which has stood the stress of thirty-odd summers is apt to look worse than It is. when compared with the fresh- looking face of her companion. And never was “make-up” more artistical ly or skilfully done than at the pres ent time. The thickly powdered face with its Intensely roughed cheeks and heavily blackened eyelids Is a specta cle of ever greater rarity. lnste»a I. in any gathering of women in full rig-out we see faces and hair toned in conformity with age and nature cheeks with a pleasant healthy glow which only an expert can dectect as make-up; hair no longer uniformly tinted to Titian shades, but adapted to the Cgce it frames, while grey hair Is becoming less and less of a draw back and being put forward as an ad- I vantage. Perfectly white hair for the elderly woman is as much sought | after to-day as was the rich golden ten years ago. * • • For Porch Tables One of the little annoyances which pester the summer housewife as soon ns she gets her porch furniture ’n place is the maddening way the table covers giow gayly around. They are always getting rumpled even if they are weighted with book* or flower vases. In fact, the last state of the woman who puts a flower vase oh such a table cover is likely to be wor e than the first; for in the first really snappy breeze that comes along, cover, vase, flowers and all go by the board. This wanderlust is not confined to the table covers, either. The morning paper sails off. not merely three sheets In the wind, but the whole tumultuous edition. Fancy work goes, too In fact, wherever ocean ! freezes blow or mountain gusts sweep by. this problem of anchoring things I ’o the porch table is a pressing one. And yet It has been solved. One i ran buy a little nickel-plated spring arrangement that will effectually' hold a cover in its place. Its usefulness | < an be extended to include papers **r other articles not too thick. The [more bulky ones wont blow ofT, any way. Special Cable to The American. PARIS. July 26. A Paris court has decided that a dress which is too tight to walk in is worthless to the person who ordered it and need not be paid for. Last year Mrs. Price, an American resident of Paris, had a dress made, the price of which was $70. When the dress was delivered she refused to take it because she could not walk in it. The dressmaker summoned her for the money, and refused to alter the dress because tight skirts were fash ionable. Mrs. Price brought a counter-ac tion and lost it, appealed and has now won her appeal with costs.

Lace insettings are effectively used just now' for this pur pose and the handwork involved is much less intricate than embroidery. Once* the lace is arranged on the stocking the effect is gained and there remains only the careful sewing to bring a satisfactory result. In the case of embroidery one tan never be so sure of the effect of handwork un til the pattern is far advanced and it is usually then too late to change if the result is disappointing. By studying the designs of lace used for Insetting In the expensive stock ings in exclusive shops it is easy to decide on a model. A flight of but terflies. of graduating sizes.
