White clothes have a perenmial ap- peal to really smartly dressed women. Every Summer the comment is made that white is in unusually high favor.

THE EVE they contrast so strikingly with the bright colored clothes that are spread so lavishly on the canvas all around us. In no place does the all-white cos- tume play a more important role in the Summer scheme of things than on the tennis court. Following the ex ample of Suzanne Lenglen most tennig players nowadays, champipons or otherwise, select an aN-white frock for the coourt, introducing the note of color by way of eye shade or bandeau. Among the class of women who are eferred to by fashion articles as ally smart” or ‘discriminating,” white hats make a strong appeal this Summer. In fact, never before have so many all-white hats been worn as now. This is true both for small sport hats and for the wide-brimmed after- noon hat as well. Every woman who can possibly afford it ought to have a pure white felt hat for Midsummer and early Autumn wear, only it should be worn charily; its charm lasts only with its snowy whiteness. The pure-white turtle-neck sweater is a smart addition to the well dressed woman's wardrobe, only this, too, de- mands precise treatment. If you like to ride horseback in warm weather vou may lke to follow the example of | ona smart horsewoman who wears white linen breeches with a pure white turtleneck knmitted sweater of fine wool. Add to this black leather riding boots and this Summer riding costume is complete. For the girl whose hair has been cul in a boyish shingle has little use for a hat when she rides cross country this Summer. brother, she is very hat at home.

It however, | something more than this; for a weed | is in some ways the most wonderful | plant in the world. Usually it spreads over immense distances, defies our at- tempts to eradicate it, and by one of | a thousand devices triumphs in the struggle for existence. or, more pre- cisely, in’ the struggle against man, in which most wild ‘plants and ani- mals are engaged these days. - In this struggle no plant is so emi- nently successful as the thistle, Its deep tap root is hard to pull up and will_sprout if the top of the plant is mown off. Browsing arimals dare not touch it, though they eat everything else. With the field thus cleared of its plant competitars, the thistle spreads prodigiously. By -means of sil winged seeds (hundreds of which are produced by a single thistle head) the Mant is able to spread its fecund gen- erations over the eafth with great rapidity. If you can find a plant more xure of coming out ahead in a strug- gle for a place’in the sun, scientists would like to hear about it. To the credit of the thistle, some beauty at least may be laid, however we may dislike it in our gardens. Its leaves, with their deeply cut lobes, elegant spines, and often silky, sil- very hairs, are really noble foliage, while its heads are handsome enough in shape to have attracted the eye of many a great artist and to_have been vorked into famous patterns. The olors, varving from purple through rimson, rose, blue, and vellow, are ertain, whatever the shade, to have w dash of barbaric splendor about id is but a them: and the Scotch thistle, at least not one of our common weed thistles), is one of the finest garden plants now in bloom RACIAL ORIGIN—English.

Melt some lard in a frying pan, using a tablespoonful and a half of lard for a quart of the chopped potatoes. Let the lard get hot and then turn the chopped potatoes into the pan, press- ing them down with a spoon. Cover the frying pan and allow the contents to cook slowly until browned on the bottom. With a wide-bladed knife or a pancake turner fold the potatoes over double and turn out on the plat- ter to be served.
