New York City. Bordered mate
rials are bo beautiful Just now and so
Tarled that every design which can
be utilized for them Is doubly wel
come. Illustrated Is a very novel and
attractive over waist that In this In
stance is made of bordered marquis
ette and worn over a lingerie guimpe.
It Is made very simple, and both the
Inner edges and the edges of the
leeves are straight, so that It suits
the bordered stuffs peculiarly well.
Trimming, however, always can be
substituted for the borders and the
blouse Is by no means to be limited
In Its usefulness. Such light weight
wools as marquisette and voile, such
pretty silks as pongee, crepe de chine,
messallne and all others of light
weight and also a whole host of sum
mer fabrics that are in demand for
Immediate wear would be appro
priate, the trimming being applique
banding, embroidery or braiding as
liked. The guimpe Is trimmed on In
dicated lines to give a distinctly novel
as well as attractive effect, and with
propriety can be made from lawn, ba
tiste, embroidered muslin, chiffon or
almost any other material of equally
light weight.
The guimpe Is made simply with
front and back portions and with
sleeves that are shirred to form dou
ble puffs or frills. The over blouse is
made in two portions with big sleeves
In mandarin style. Each straight
portion is tucked over the shoulders
and Is gathered at the waist line, so
giving soft and becoming folds. Both
guimpe and over blouse are closed
Invisibly at the back.
The quantity of material required
(or the medium size is two and one
half yards either twenty-one or twenty-seven
or one and one-quarter yards
forty-four Inches wide for the over
blouse wltlf five and thre-quarter
yards of banding, two yards thirty
six Inches wide with seven yards of
Insertion for the guimpe.
Lace Veils to Fancy.
One would Indeed be hard to please
who could not find a lace veil to her
fancy. "
The Popular Z.
When asked the origin of this pop
ular Z style a Freuch dressmaker
speedily explained. "It Is lucky,"
said she. "And It is likewise simple
and beautiful. We advise tae Ms all
cases possible simply became It is
both quiet and elegant.' The Z, it
ma be explained, decorates many of
the handsomest of Imported gowns;
It Is seen In lacs designs; It Is carried
out In many trimming schemes and
tt is one of the most popular of the
tsjwB'i fads.

Juniper With Guimpe.
Young girls And the over waists or
jumpers peculiarly well suited to
their needs and consequently have
hailed them wfth enthusiastic wel
come. Here Is one that Is Just charm
ing as it Is simple, and which can be
utilized for everything seasonable.
As Illustrated the overblouse Is made
of pale blue messallne with trimming
of cream lace edged with pale blue
velvet, while it Is worn over a guimpe
of fine white muslin with yoke of em
broidery. There are, however, not
alone a great many thin silks this sea
son, and charming light weight wools
which make attractive waists of the
sort for young girls, but also a great
many cotton and silk and cotton as
well as linen materials which can be
utilized in a similar way. For exam
ple, if the waist were made of brown
linen with skirt to match and the
trimming were of white with a scal
loped edge, there could be evolved a
most satisfactory and smart yet sim
ple costume while made as It Is from
silk, with lace It is an exceedingly
dressy creation.
The blouse is made with front and
backs. It Is tucked at Its upper edge
and the trimming band is arranged
over it, serving as a stay. The am
holes are large and open in conform'
Ity with present styles, and straight
bands of trimming are used as a
finish. The coat is a simple one, made
with front and backs that are faced
to form the yoke and with elbow
sleeves.
The quantity of material require
for the medium size cixteen years
is two and one-half yards twenty-one,
one and three-eighth yards thirty
two or forty-four with three ards of
lace and six yards of velvet ribbon,
one and one-half yards thirty-six
Inches wide with three-eighth yard
of all-over embroidery for the
guimpe.

ribbon form the ends, or, as an alter

Skimming River for a Living Fish
ermen Who Net Corks.
Skimming a river for a living
may be said to be one of the most
striking examples of the utilization
of waste. This Is done In Paris.
There is one Individual, at least, In
the French capital who makes it his
dally business to skim the Seine. He
Is out at early morning in an old flat
bottomed boat, armed with a skim
ming pan. With this he skims off
the surface of the river the grease
which collects there during the night
and which he disposes of to a soap
factory. Generally he makes a quarter
or so by his morning work, which
enables him to live.
In Paris also there are a number
of people who make a living out of
waste corks which they fish from the
Seine. They collect on the river bank
at daybreak, each with a short pole,
at the end of which is a small Impro
vised net They set to work to gather
In the floating corks, subsequently
selling them to the cork merchants
in the neighborhood.
There are about a score or so of
these cork fishermen, who have formed
themselves Into a sort of craft and
who guard their interests Jealously.
If they catch sight of a stranger nett
ing corks they fall on him In a body.
Only recently the police rescued one
of these novices barely- In time to
save his life.
The sweeping of a floor might well
be considered as so much waste; yet
through a fire in London the other
day, which consumed a quantity of
sweeping stored In the basement, a
certain firm lost several dollars. The
heap of dust and rubbish contained
silver fillings, which it was intended
to extract later on.
This is done regularly at all works
where silver or gold is used. In gold
refiners' premises even the soot In
the chimneys Is not allowed to be
treated as waste. It is found to con
tain minute particles of the precious
metal, which are far too valuable to
be lost.
In places where sheep are bred ex

bits of wool adhering to briers and

Irregular, mercantile collections show
distinct Improvement on the whole.
A few labor disputes are pending,
but there Is little interruption In tho
leading industries, most manufactur

QUILT FROM EXTRA CUFFS.
Women whose husbands do not
wear the extra cuffs which come with
almost) every shirt can make good
use of them toy cutting off at button
hole edge and also at length, then
pulling them apart, and you will huvi
two colored or figured pieces and one
plain white piece (sometimes two)
from the inside of the cuff. By saw
ing these pieces together and using
a little judgment ycu will have a pret
ty and durable quilt, as almost all
shirts wash well. It does not take
long to save enough, as you hnve six
and sometimes eight' pieces from a
pair of cuffs. - '

Shannon is the National League's
best run getter, according to the
latest averages. He had circumnavi
gated the diamond Bixty-nine times
when the figures went to press. Chase
was second among the American
Leaguers, with sixty-one.
The Cubs have not been free from
ill fortune by any means, yet they
have a lead, and a long one. Sehulte
was out of the game a long time, Tin
ker was laid up for a while, Johnny
Kllng has done a sentence for kick

mission several times.
Now is the season of the year when
the scouts are busy digging up young
blood. There is always a good deal
of walling over the fact that only a
small proportion of newcomers make
good in the big leagues, but it is
that very fact that makes the stand
ard of big league playing high.
THE USEFUL CROCHET HOOK.
Use a crochet hook to reach the
draw-string that has just slipped out
f reich in the casing. If the needle
comes off a shoestring, draw It through
the holes with a crochet hook. If the
wick gets turned down in the kitchen '
lamp, it may be easily reached with
a medium-sized hook and put back
into the burner -without getting kero
Bene on the hands. A cork may often
be pulled from a bottle wtoem in too
far to reach with the Sogers. . A
rather large hook is best for tbls.
When sewing on buttons, place a
small steel hook between the outtdm
and cloth, and the button will not be
too close to the cloth. IS. Lw J., la
