|Rajah the Accepted Material For Summer Tailor ftflades. iTHREE PIECE SUIT POPULAR. ' |lt is Best to Have the Tailored Suit 1 Made by a Good Tailor and Fashion \ y?'\ the .lumper Oneself at Home?Tho j[ Tailored Hat. I Rajah is the accepted material for the tfashiouable tailor made gown of sum finer. Rajah, in the accepted sense, (means a range of silk warped mate rials from tussore to pongee. Pongee ds really the staple. It is made in all eorts of* strange, fascinating weaves. ?It varies from thin to heavy, with a coarse cord running through some of its weaves, as io the geuuine home spun. This quality of pougee Is not cheap. It is worth its price. The ma terial Is about the most styWsh one can buy for a tailor made, and it will stand an infinite number of cleanings and making over. Pongee Is only about twenty-eight inches w'de, and this qualify may be bought now for $1.19 n yard. It requires fifteen yards for a full plaited skirt suit. The best quali ty of satlu finished taffeta should be used to line the jacket. It does not pay to attempt to economize on the material for one's tailor made. This Js the gown one wears more than any other. It is the essential thing, no mat ter what else one may get. Then the whole mark of a well made tailor made Is the cloth and the cut. Heavy linens, rrash and homespuns will also be worn ?s plain custom made suits. The real bailors will scarcely ever listen to any suggestions for fancy or elaborated tailor suits. They leave that to the realm of ready mados. The well made tailor suit should be cut just right, cor rect in line and absolutely perfect In tailoring, but moderate in style, so that it lasts more than a scasbn. \ Three piece suits are much worn. These are shown in ready mades In other rajahs or stripped panamas as cheap as $?>r>. but it is a question if it Is any economy to attempt to get a" three piece ready made. Would it not be much better to have one's suit made well by a good tailor and then do the jumper oneself? A jumper body in pongee would be so good with a little hand embroidery in color. This could be easily done at home and worn with one's suit over a guimpe of lace or eye^ i DRESSY BLACK AND WHITE CONFECTION. let embroidery.

One finds them in the showrooms of the leading luminaries in the uiodlstic world, and lamong the gorgeous models displayed iin the wonderful salons of the milli ners (here are hats with tall beehive !?ud sugar loaf crowns, which are sup iplemented with gorgeous birds whose ?twin heads surmount a body and tarings composed of composite feathers la a variety of lovely glistening tints imelting one into the other, from iparrakeet green to dark midnight blue, and terminating in a long tail dyed iu ?soft shades of buff and blue, which is more lemiuisceut of the bird of para dise than any other variety.

Kouuedy's Laxative Cough Syrup? the cough syrup that tastes nearly as good as maple sugar and which chil dren like to take so well. Unlike nearly all other remedies, it does uot constipate, but on the other hand it acts promptly yet gently on the bow els, through which the cold is forced out of the system, and at the same time it allays luflamation.

There Is no limit now to the extent that the color taste may be indulged in beautifying the summer home. From the bit of ribbon on oue's dressing table to the chairs and tables in the library everything may be in one's favorite shade or oue's astral color, and if variety is preferred fancy mcy run riot in choice of agreeable hues. Burnt orange is the smart color of the moment. New reed furniture for summer bungalows is shown in this rich burnt orange tone, and the strong color blends with strikingly artistic ef 'feet with dark woodwork and with the vivid yellows of the goldenrod, nastur tiums, ox eyed daisies and other sum liter dowers. . This reed furniture is ideal for sum mer home use. Substantial in effect and in the big square shapes that sug gest hours of delicious summer idle ness, the chairs are really light and easy to lift about from room to room or when required from piazza to lawn. Besides the low rockers aud deep heart to heart talk settees, (here are all m.in ner of useful smaller pieces?magazine stands, music racks, plant laborers and' the like. In the reed furniture, next to the fashionable burnt orange color, the always popular forest green and a soft seal brown are high iu fa vor. For the hostess who is planning for the delight of her guests a pink room or green room or any other charming summery .color scheme there is wide choice in the new colored bedroom fur niture, and prices are well within the scope of even economical pocketbooks. Daintiness and restfuluess rather (ban luxury are the desirable characteristics of the summer bedroom, and very dainty Indeed are bedroom sets In deli cate tints of rose color, apple green or pale buff, each matched by an iron bed stead enameled in the same shade. A pale pink dresser and chairs and near by a pink tinted bedstead suggest in stantly the accompanying daiutiness of rose printed chintz cushions and rose bud sprigged dimity hangings. And every hostess knows that when the dusty summer day journey is over and you and your bag after the re freshing spin up from the station in the country air are ushered into the in-* finite restfulness of a "green room" or the sunny cheerfulness of a "yellow room" or the roseate prottiness of a "pink room" every single item of her trouble about details of daintiness will be amply repaid in the completeness of your appreciation and delight The Embarrassing Finger Bowl. The most embarrassing thing in soci ety is the fiuger bowl. Every one is embarrassed who attempts to use one. The women come nearer to using it gracefully than the men, but even the women do not entirely succeed, al though they assume a careless manner in washing their fingers, indicating that at home tbey use finger bowls every few minutes. There is a certain awkwardness about finger bowls which no one can deny. Many a man has re fused to attend a party through fear of finger I bowls. The next time you are out notice if all the guests do not look at the particular person who is using a finger bowl as if they would say. "We have bowls at our house, but he doesn't have them at his house." A good many people dirlike society, and it is believed that they are afraid of company, but the truth is it's finger bowls. Gingerbread. A favorite recipe for gingerbread has not the advantage of being inexpen sive, but it is delicious. Melt one-third of a cupful of bntter in two-thirds of a cupful of boiling water and add one cupful of molasses. and one egg well beaten. Mix and sift two and throe fourth cupfuls of pastry flour (once sifted), one and a half teaspoonfuls of soda, one and a half teaspoonfuls of salt and two, teaspoonfuls of ginger. Add to first mixture, beat thoroughly, turn luto a buttered and floured shal low pan and bake in a moderate oven thirty minutes. Vary the flavor some times by using one teaspoonful each of giuger and cinnamon and a fourth of a teaspoouful of cloves; then bake in buttered and floured individual tins.? Woman's Home Companion.

When the housewife has baked a pie or a pudding for dinner and wishes to cool it quickly it has to be set out or doors,.but here the trouble begins. Her own cat or dog 01 ?oiue neighbor's cat or dog is likely to be lurking about the dour, ready for pie. If the pudding is put on the Ice f<? cool, it often spills over when the big block in the refrig erator begins to uielt So this expedi ent is tio good. Fig 1 fhows a way out of the difficulty. Let the handy man make this little out of door cupboard for the use of the housekeeper, locat THK CLOSET COUPLETS. Ing it beside the kitchen door. Get an empty grocery box of the right size and binge the cover to the top. placing a knob on the other edge. Make a sup port for this closet by driving two strips of wood iuto the ground and screwing two crosswise strips of board to the tops of these, as is suggested iu Fig. 2. Lay the grocery box on Its side on these supports and uail it to them from the inside. The finished work is showu in Fig. 1, Here anything hot can be placed to cool quickly, and with the cover down there will be no danger from cats or dogs. If de sired to give freer access to the cold ajx. sev eral holes can be bored in each end and in the bottom before putting the box in position on the supports. In winter, if the ground is frozen too hard to insert the strips of board, the closet can be placed against the side of the house, close to the kitchen door, and supported in place by two wooden brackets. Another plan to secure the same result would be to make the closet and screw a wooden handle to the middle of the top, with holes bored in ends and back. When it is to be used put the dish or dishes inside and set the closet out ou the ground be side the door. CLOSET SUPPORTS. Golf and Tennis Styles. The popularity of golf and tennis during recent years has had its influ ence upon the styles, aud the summer dresses for young girls are usually of the severest type. Of course what is known as the Gibson waist has become popular because i". gives breadth to the shoulders and accentuates all the good lines of the figure. For after noon dresses the lingerie gowu holds good, and nothing can take its place, but the average girl Is very willing in deed to have a good many linen or lawn shirt waist suits for morning wear. Even the street suits are of the most severe type and have been for the past two years A girl with really good taste wears only extremely plain box coats or plain and plaired skirts, which are most appropriate to youth ful figures. Many girls have taken a great fancy to very stiff collars and ties, and they are really most effective, for they give a neat appearance to the costume, which is difficult to get In any other way. Sometimes these collars are worn with ribbon bows, sometimes with a jabot, sometimes with a white bib-like affair and sometimes with a four-in-hand tie; but. on the whole, the plainer the tie in the morning the more effective the costume will be. As to skirts, this year they may be made in almost any shape so that they fit over the hips. Some are plaited, while others are made circular, but most of them have a box plait or in verted box plait in the front. Buttons are very popular, and many dresses are trimmed entirely with buttons, white pearl affairs, laid In rows to give the effect of a design. With plain dresses hats must be very much on the sailor order, and the most of the sailors are trimmed simply on the side with a quill or bow. The Gainsborough variety should be re served for the afternoon. An Amusing Story. This amusing little tale must be cred ited to a recent number of Everybody's Magazine: A tail man, impatiently pacing the platform of a wayside station, accosted a red haired boy of twelve. "S-n-sny." he sw.id. "d-d-do y-you know ha-ha-how late this train is?" The boy grinned, but made no reply. The man stuttered out something about red headed kids in general and passed into the station. A stranger, overhearing the one sided conversation, asked the boy why he hadn't answered the big man. "D-d-d'ye waliter see me g-ggct me fa-fa-face punched':" stammered the boy. ''D-d-tlat big g-g-guy'd t'-ink I was iuo-mo-mocking him." Thoughts.
