Young Ladies' Sum

mer Hats.-Figs.
1 and 2.

THE round hat Fig. 1 is of fine black Milan straw. The wide brim, which droops on one side and is flaring on the other, is faced with green velvet. The trimming is confined to the front, and consists of a

large loose bow of straw ribbon or galloon that is bound at one edge with green watered ribbon, with a bunch of roses fastened in the knot.

The hat Fig. 2 is of open heliotrope fancy fancy straw, lined in the crown with cream surah, and with the wide, capriciously bent brim faced with cream straw braid. A cluster of shaded heliotrope ostrich plumes, with an aigrette and a chou of heliotrope ribbon, trims the back of the crown, and a bouquet of asters is fastened in the curve of the brim.

Summer Toilettes.
Figs. 1 and 2.

THE light skirt of the costume Fig. 1 is made of black-dotted white surah. The drapery and basque are of black surah. On the back of the skirt the drapery is hung in full straight folds which reach to the bottom of the skirt, while on the front it forms an irregular apron that is taken up in a revers on one side. The basque opens with revers on a simulated waistcoat of the dotted surah, and has its front studded with large ornamental buttons.

Fig. 2 shows a dress of light gray summer wool, trimmed with borders of open cord passementerie. The skirt is kilt-pleated. The drapery is hung in deep paniers on the sides, with full looped breadths at the back. The basque has a pointed plastron and collar and cuffs of passementerie. A ribbon belt is twisted about the hips, and tied in a long bow on one side.

Foulard Costume. See illustration on page 477. THIS costume is of figured, foulard with a light ground.

A panel of white figured lace net is on the left side of the pleated skirt; it consists of a soft puff of the net studded with ribbon rosettes, with lengthwise pleats of net on each side. The polonaise has long drapery on one side and a short panier on the other. The corsage has a full front, with the folds drawn to a long point on each side of a plastron of net arranged to correspond with the skirt panel.

Cashmere and Silk House Dress.

See illustration on page 477.

IN this combination dress a pleated under-skirt of dark brown faille française is associated with an over-skirt and basque of light leather-colored cashmere. The over-skirt has an apron drapery, which is slashed at the middle so as to form two points on the front; the back is looped up at the middle. The basque is medium long on the hips, and has a vest, pockets, collar, and cuffs of brown silk.

FIG. 1. is a high-crowned hat of copper-colored fancy rough straw, with the brim, which is turned up on the left side, faced with copper-colored plush.

net, which is carried in soft folds over the crown of the hat and fastened underneath the brim.

Morning Caps.-Figs. 1 and 2.

See illustrations on page 477. A SMALL cap composed of pink ribbon and cream Fedora lace is shown in Fig. 1. A band of the ribbon is used to form a small crown, which is veiled with a frill of lace. Several ribbon bows are placed against the front, and on the back a fall of lace is arranged in curves. The cap Fig. 2. has a small frame of net and wire, which is surrounded with a soft frill of white lace. The puffed crown is composed of eight lengthwise bands of lace two inches and a half wide. A large butterfly bow of pink ribbon and lace is on the front, the ribbon being carried in a point down the crown to the back edge.

Plain and Striped Wool Costume. See illustration on page 477. PLAIN serpent blue wool and blue and Suède striped wool are the materials of this combination costume. A wide breadth of the striped fabric is in the right side of the skirt, the rest of it being of plain wool. The drapery of plain wool consists of a long point on one side of the front and a short panier on the other, with looped back breadths. The basque is blue, with a narrow vest of plain Suèdecolored wool braided with soutache. The fronts approach in a point at the centre, and above and below the point are revers which are faced with the striped wool. Ribbon bows trim the front of the dress.

Cooking.

IT is wonderful that, with

the same ingredients, one person will prepare a dish fit for gods, while her neighbor will concoct that which it is an effort to swallow and an impossibility to digest, and which will make one agree with the Sybarite, after tasting the Lacedæmonian black broth," that the pains

Wild Rose Pot-Pourri.

DURING THE MONTH OF JUNE We employ hundreds of women and children gathering the petals of the sweet-scented Wild Roses, which grow profusely and attain their highest degree of fragrance in the cold climate of Maine. After being properly cured, these are combined with a choice mixture of spicy perfume -imported expressly for our use-making a Potpourri which will remain fragrant for years, and is desirable for filling Jars, Sachets, etc. We call this the "Wild Rose Pot-pourri," which is our registered trade-mark. It is put up in a pink lacquered box with trade-mark on the top cover and our fac-simile signature on the side. Several imitations made of Southern roses and ordinary spices have been put on the market, bearing no comparison with our preparation as regards odor or permanence.

Our new stock will be ready in August and for sale in the principal cities throughout the United States. Dealers and consumers who want the genuine should wait for our goods. If your dealer does not have it by September send 50c. to us direct, and a box will be sent by mail post-paid.
