V 10 H IN BEARST’S SUNDAY AMERICAN, ATLANTA, OA„ SUNDAY. JULY 27, 1013. An Attractive Bathing Suit HU GIRL B LATK watered silk parasols are very popular thla year The handles are always elaborate: very often they are exceedingly coat- ty. Carved Jade is one of the latest materials for parasol handles; and finely carved quartz Inset with old paste is also much used. And while speaking of Jade I must not neglect to say that small bracelets of this stone are the "clou” of the moment. These little bracelets are slipped on over the wrist and two or three Hr* 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 1s now the fashion to open the corsages of lace and muslin gowns Intended for day wear In a gene-rous 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 become more and more rare, a gulmpe of cobweb tulle is worn. Tn 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 transpar- ent. • • • A one-piece f»crge dress is useful, especially In the mountains, where the 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, front-closed, one-piece frock for old er women. It shoujd have a skirt with ample fullness about the ankles. This fullness can be arranged gracefully, bo that the skirt still re tains a straight look; one of the new outing skirts has the fulness but toned under the side seams in the forms of tucks, which can he un buttoned when necessary. Heavy soled tan shoes, with medium heels, or white canvas shoes of substantial make, are the most comfortable for climbing, and tramping, as well. • • • In some of the newest underwear, crepe de chine 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 la^e and ribbon, are often attached to crepe de chino 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 it Is short, being fastened at the waist by a belt of glo\» kid studded with precious stones. The hem of such tunlcg should always be slight ly stiffened, as the whole success of the garment depends on Its outline. The skirt should be cleverly drapeu and very dinging, while the short tunic should stand out at the sides. * * « The newest parasols 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 parasols have little Jointed handles. In the Old World style, and nearly all show large bows of velvet or satin 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 coat ees of black taffeta or black watered silk; the faded colors of the tapestry being repeated In the hat trimmings or in the embroidereiea displayed on collar or revert. • • » A decidedly smart neck finish can be made with two lengths of one of the full dotted net ruchings 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 ruchlng to stand upright about the neck, the other to go the other wav. The effect is graceful and easily produced. 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 is fashioned of all transparent ma terials, from priceless lace to inex pensive maline. It Is tucked, shirred, pleated or fitted smoothly over the neck, and seldom appears with a high ^collar. * * • j broad g rdle of Dresden ribbon ippeal to many girls on account Bv Olivette. T HE 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 I row down its full length. The deep scallops at the bottom are I bound in the plaid, and in turn the scalloped swallow-tailed red- ingote 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. of its daintiness. Crush the wide rose- sprigged ribbon softly about the \vai*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 bowknot and adorn the center with a tin\ wreath of min iature roses and forgetmenots. 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 us has stood the stress of thirty-odd ri i summers is apt to look worse than The opaque petticoat has mad appearance In the Atlanta dej ment stores. It is made with extra heavy panels, back and front, and as the stores advertise, "fills a long- felt want.” The attention of the man ufacturers of ready-to-wear clothing has been turned toward under linen that will go with the outer cloth.*s that are fashionable.

Alan Dale Finds “Dancing Mis tress” Dull as Ditch Water, but Beauty Stuns. BY ALAN DALE. Special Cable to The American. LONDON, July 26.—They say that a gayety girl is born every minute, and I don’t doubt it. Also( I don’t doubt that "Governor” George Ed wardes has need for twice as many as nature supplies. You know 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. Well, I assert distinctly—she isn’t. She 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 A del phi Theater we see another of those tilings—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) by 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 aa.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 lacking 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 wardrobe. Miss Dare Much Postcarded. 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, arid thinnish and dainty, and ob, 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 *#cath, as though she were saying, "Oh, please be good to ydur 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 your eyes. All of which is. of course, but a pretty little illusion. Mi's 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 i< If vou 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 fee! tempted to applaud. Prettiness No Boon. Another London favorite in "The Dancing Mistress” is Miss Graoie, Leigh, a very clever and delightful little woman who isn’t pretty for one moment, and who 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 Polaire ora Mistinguette among all these zimmering. afternoon tea it is. when compared with the fresh- I damsellnes would be perfectly won looking face of her companion. And I derful. It would be a difficult task to give i even a slight summary of the con- { trusting styles that are in fashion this summer, but if you have clothes j to make, it is well for you to know | that your day frocks may have tulle collars to the ears or a V-shaped dec- | olletage 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 i You may wear a girdle from hip to bust, or a one-inch leather *belt, the skirt may he draped up in the back and down in the front, or the other way around; and yet, notwithstand ing the laxity of styles, there are cer tain ways of doing things that mak J 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 loose 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. This kind is belted at the waist with a narrow girdle of mate rial or contrasting velvet ribbon, and there is a breast pocket which often holds a small handkerchief with a small colored border. never was "make-up” more artistical ly or skilfully done than at the pres ent time. The thickly pow'dered face with its intensely roughed cheeks and heavily blackened eyelids is a specta cle of ever greater rarity. Instead, any gathering of women In full hair toned nd nature— ‘‘he* k.<* w ith a pleasant healthy glow which only an expert can dectect as make-up; hair no longer uniformly tinted to Titian shades, hut adaptc 1 to the face It frames, while grey hair is becoming less and less of a draw back and being put forward as an ad vantage. Perfectly white hair for the elderly woman is as much sought after to-day as was the rich golden ten years ugo. Miss Grade Leigh Is a capital dancer, and Miss Grade Leigh has 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 Frenchwoman, pro grammed as Mile. M. Caumont, works so hard that she almost fa tigues. She is relied upon for comedy, and she isjnerciless 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. "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.

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 mJ white bird’s-eye foulard, a strip of raspberry colored silk being let inti 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 sole, embossed with gold and edged with gold bouil lon fringe, whi*e the corsage is of ivory lace. * Music Notes, \> > TVULYK r ^CRLK O’Brien and Havel With Miss Valeski Will Pre- sent Playlet—Carnegie Pictures at Grand.

D AINTY, durable draperies of pret tiest designs are displayed by Davlson-Paxon-Stokes Compa ny this week. Every character of drapery material Is shown in pristine freshness. Voiles, marquisettes, scrims and cretonnes make an alluring pic ture of decorative possibilities. The downstairs section is proving a most attractive one, for it is here that Davison-Paxon-Stoke? show how to reduce the cost of living. In time of heat prepare for cold. This was the thought of the J. M. High Company when they inaugu rated an August blanket sale several years ago. It has now become an an nual opportunity to buy blankets at reduced prices. The August sale in cludes furniture and bed linens, and will be a delight to every home lover. The Keely Company is introducing the fall models of the American Lady and Lyra oor. c, ets. Nothing is quite so important as the proper corset, and these new models indicate the cos tume styles for the approaching sea son. When in doubt as to which dress is appropriate.*buy a new one. This is the most sensible advice that could be given, if you go to M. Rich & Bros. Co. for the dress. For $9.85 you can buy fresh, dainty, summer dresses which were priced at. $15. $17.50, $23 and $23.50. There are 127 dresses, in cluding linens, creoes, lingeries, rati nes and voile? 1 . Never did the women of Atlanta look preittier than during this season. Thank Rich’s for another dres*s occasion. * * * 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, madi? of baby Irish lace insertion. Joe Welch will be the headline of fering at the Forsyth this week. He. will be the star act of a bill that promises to be one of the most de lightful comedy entertainments of the season. In getting Joe Welch the Keith of fices have a comedian who has occu pied a high position in vaudeville for several seasons. He has appeared in Atlanta but once and hi9 hit then was an ’event. * Welch has made a life study of the real Hebrew, and has ifiade the char acter stand out. His stories are orig inal and clever and have never failed to win the mo.M enthusiastic attention and the most appreciative applause. Robert L. Daily and his company are scheduled as another feature on. this bill. Daily will appear in a comedy arrangement called "Our Bob” and will have every opportunity to prove that he is one of the best com edians in the profession. He is a brother of the never-to-be-forgotten Pete Daily, apd is the same sort of entertainer that famous Weber and Field star was*. He has been identified with some of the best comedy and musical comedy offerings in New York, and is now in vaudeville be cause of the great demand that man agers had registered for his services. O’Brien. Havel and company, in their new comedy playlet, "Monday,” promise another good comedy treat O’Brien is a clever comedian, and Arthur Havel is a splendid entertain ing juvenile. Miss Valeska, who is in the act, is a pretty girl of unusual cleverness as a dancer. Uunningham and Marion, the com edy gymnasts; Carl Cress, a novelty painter, and Elsa Ward and others will appear. Carnegie Alaskan Pictures at Grand. The success of the Grand as the home of high-class* motion pictures has been one of the big surprises of the season.
