New Blouses Worn Over Skirts ~ —Velvet and Lace—Junior Fashions. New York, August, 20. All fashionable New York is sup- posed to be far afield at this tame of the year, yet any cool day one can see scores of well known women taking advantage of the opportnnity that their favorite shops offer in Aug- ust to pick up desirable left overs in modish hats and dresses at prices that add considerably to their attract- iyeness, provided one’s friends are not in the secret. Nor is shopping at this season confined to left overs, for early showings are made of advanced models marked at exceptionally rea- sonable figures in order to push par- ticular styles into vogue. McCall Design BARGAIN TIMES. The time to purchase made up clothes to advantage is either in ad- vance of the season, when styles hang in the balance, or very late wuen the selection is limited by a depleted stock, which yet shows among the drift, many articles sure to be smartly worn later. This sort of buying re- gnires judgment and taste, and the woman deficient in these, would bet- ter pay more and buy later when styles have crystalized into gener- ally accepted forms, and when by following people who purchase with judgment, she can be sure of making no costly mistakes. A limited war. drobe selected with reference to per- sonality and enyironment, varied by means of smart small accessories: hats, girdles, collars, vests and the like, will turn anyone out attractively, while a host of fussy, nsuitable , | clothes will make anyone appear dowdy. Distinction in dress means simplie- ity and adaptability to the time and place, it is not so much a question of means as of the judicious expendi- ture of time and money. Eweryone has her limitations and the unsue- cessful by a gowned woman never goes beyond them. NEW BLOUSES. New ‘‘tops’’, ‘‘extra waists’’ or ‘“‘blouses’’ as they are indifferently termed, show the trend toward basqe lines, in the tailormade class. Satin is the preferred material, black satin leading, with white a close second just now. Later we shall see these produced in colors to tone with the material of the suit, it is predicted. In general effect all models are well described as ‘‘Satin Jerseys’’, only the fitting is half tight, not cloes as in the real Jersey waist. Cross wrinkles are produced by puckering the underarm seams and those at the side front, but the front is straight and flat, and closes with self, cover- ed ball buttons. The length is well down over the hips, where there is a finish of a flat or wrinkled sash or girdle. These waists are, of course, worn over the skirt and give a much more impressiye line, than the blouses to which we haye become accustom- ed. Sleeves are set on the under- waist whether they are of satin, net or chiffon and the outer arm holes are in many instances cut nearly to the waist line. LACE IN WAISTS AND SKIRTS. Diaphanous skirts are worn with velvet or satin waists, and filmy tops of lace, tulle, net or chiffon ac- company skirts of substantial texture. These will continue to be worn smartly as the season advances, for all ceremonious occasions. Velvet capes are the tip of the mode for wear with any and all costumes, and all signs point to the coming season as a marked velvet one. FALL SCHOOL OUTFITS. Mothers everywhere are planning the school outfits that will be needed next month. The children’s wardrobes are apt to be a bit dilapidated after the summer’s wear, and the young- | sters grow so fast that even the best ' preserved garments need renovations. Happily wbis is not a difficult task this year w«wune-n combinations rule the mode for juniors as well as tor adults, Whether plain solid culors, stripes, checks, or plaids are needcd nothing gives greater satisfaction for washa- ble frocks that must stand nard wear than the Renfew Devonshire cloth that is guaranteed tub and sun proof. Closely resembling linen in texture, but without its liability to muss this fabric comes in most up-to-date pat- terns and colors, and because of its firmness of weave, garments made of it hold their shape as well as color after repeated yisits to the laundry. Long coats of substantial woolen fabrics or of galfine warmly lined are already being sold for fall wear. These have the prevailing ‘‘Redingoted lines and most of them show the dropped waist line, set off at the hips with a belt, sash or girdle. Buttons are an important feature on these garments. as indeed they are on nearly all types for the coming season. Jet buttons and bead em- broideries done on the dress material are to be extremely smart. .

Keep your engagements and transact your business with the lash of Father Time snapping behind you? 1f you do, perhaps you pride yourself on belonging to the Eleventh Hour brigade and talk knowingly of how much better you work ‘‘under pres- sure.’”’” Don’t be deceived. You are perfectly aware that the chauffeur who runs his car at break- neck speed. slams on the brake when he wants to stop and who always takes the hills on high gear, *‘just to show what the engine can do,’’ has little consideration for the continued efficiency of his machine. The finest motor ever built is but a fraction as complicated as the human engine. So it behooyes everyone to bear in mind that the wear and tear of work- ing under strain and continually driv- ing business on high gear, cannot be continued without risk. Fortunately employers and em- ployees are coming to realize that a certain degree of relaxation in- creases efficiency, However, there are thousands of business men who drive themselves relentlessly with an indifference which they would never permit an employe to display in handling the least costiy equip- ment. They never force that proyes so successful ag a motive power, when exhausted results in complete break down. A reasonable degree of delibera- tion and the exercise of forethought may save you much mental and phy- sical strain without the least impair- ment ofefficiency. —— King of French Thieves. Franchomme, who bears the title in Paris of “King of Thieves,” has been condemned to three years in prison. He is the hero of 70 thefts, his prey for the most part having been Pari- sian jewelers. M. Franchomme has been employing his spare time while in prison writing his “memoirs,” iw which he boasts of his marvelous dex- terity. Le Cri de Paris quotes a passage from these memoirs, which are soon to be published: “My thefts, my swindles, will figure into the thou- sands. Paris is truly the city par ex- celience to produce a man so resource- ful in his adventures, having at hand an inexhaustible spring of stratagems. [ have employed in this city a super- natural intelligence and no end of novel ‘inventions to obtain money. I have turned the same tricks in Paris and London and Brussels, but in Paris I did more of them, until at last the Parisians could no more allow them- selves to be taken in.” ei mapas etn CENT. imitating oe ting the Stomachs INFANTS jr a pp—— Promotes Digestion Cheerfit ness and Rest.Contains neither Opium Morphine nor Mineral.
