THE EVENING TELEGRAM, LA i i By ROB M'CHEYNE. The sloping vineyards along On- tario were lightly veiled in the mists of Indian summer. In the air was that langurous warmth that steals into the veins and lulls the brain to dreams and reminiscence. The giant cataract could be heard faintly, a drowsy, dis- tant hum of monotony—a sound that seemed to pervade everything and reach the bewildered brain, strangely associated with the heavy odor of grapes, full ripe; the rich clusters hanging everywhere. 1t is only by some such psychologi- | cal analysis, whether scientific or not, that an explanation can be found for the startling fact that Fanchette, go- ing home from the day’s picking, al- lowed Ponpon the jester, the clown, the great laughing roystering Ponpon, to imprint upon her pretty, upturned, scralet lips, a kiss, thinking all the while it was Antoine. And such a kiss! A group of gay young girls turned at the sound, only to see the demure Fanchette, blushing to be sure, but smiling in serene un- consciousness of the fact that it was Ponpon who had slipped up behind her and tipped her chin back, as Antoine sometimes did, when he was not too serious. *So, that is the way when Antoine s not here!" And she turned back to wait for Antoine. When he came up Ponpon was hang- ing over him, casting all manner of Jibes at him. “You have excellent taste, Antoine. I swear her littie chin is as soft as ze breast of le perdrix.” He burst into a loud guffaw, “Here is La Grig- non"—he had given the dark-eyed girl this nickname because she was tall as a maypole, and it had stuck because she was pretty as one—‘“she will tell you; she saw Fanchette kiss me.” “Yes, and I think it is outrageous of her.” Ponpon was not prepared for this, as he had no idea anyone had seen him, and had called La Grignon into it only to tease Antoine. So he quick- ly ran off to join another group. But Antoine was silent and his companion had no chance to poison his mind against her rival. deP“ ly thege l place.

Advance Designs Shown Are Plctur esque In the Extreme—Flat Trim- ming Is to Be the Prevailing Rule for Coming Fashions. Now that the milliners are begin- ning to show their beflowered and jacy midsummer models, the woman who feared that the vogue for the small headgear of spring would be carried over into the summer, finds that such is not to be the case. The and picturesque, to accompany the | prevailing styles in summer frocks. Stift brims are not a factor in the newest designs. On the contrary, the more flexible, even floppy, the brim of the midsummer hat, the more will it conform to fashion’s decree. Thé brim should droop at the front and back, rather than at the sides. The wide-brimmed models, flatly trimmed, flower wreaths, are reminiscent of the quaint hats worn by the grandmoth- ers of this generation in their girl- hood days. Flat trimming is the rule on large hats. Grace, rather than audacity, seems to be the ideal of the modish Chic Poke Shape. milliner, and, therefore, one sees tewer of the upstanding Numidie and aigrette trimmings so popular this spring. They are replaced by flow- ers, plaited tulle, swathed lace and (softly knotted ribbon, the traditional adornment of the midsummer hat. Roses have come into their own Igniu and the big, rose wreathed hat 18 evidently going to be a feature of the summer. A charming model of |this sort has been sent over from Paris to add its quota of grace to a June trousseau. It is a flexible shape of fine black hemp, with a rather low crown and a wide brim, faced with .rose -colored crepe de chine, drooping !elightly at the front and back. Large 'pink and black roses are placed alter | nately about the crown, One of the most attractive of com- Ing season models recently brought |over from Paris was of pink tulle or maline. The mob crown was formed, layer upon layer, of the gossamer-like material, and the narrow, drooping ‘brim was also of the pink maline. \The crown was encircled by a dainty green satin ribbon, which was tled at the front with small flat loops and ‘endh. Placed directly at the front of the erown were two pink roses and green leaves, | The fashionable roses are closely "pressed for favor by the old-fashioned 'garden flowers, and some of the quaint, old-time poke-bonnet effects, turned up at the back and trimmed with posies and nosegays of forget- me-nots, bachelor buttons, heliotrope and their like are well-nigh irresist- | Ible. MARY DEAN. |IDEA FOR VEGETABLE PARTY Somethlng Novel In the Way of En- | tertalnment That Will Be Appre- ciated by All. Invitations for a vegetable party |were sent on the backs of old seed packets, and each girl was told to wear something representing a vege- table. The young men later found their partners for supper by guessing the vegetable represented. The house was brilliantly decorated with stringe of peppers, onion tops, etc., and it was amusing if not beautiful. The center- piece was a huge cabbage hollowed out and filled with a mass of green onfons and red geraniums. A wreath {of round red radishes twined around this. Little contest books, ornamented with painted vegetables having faces, were given the guests, and prizes were glven for correct answers to the ques- tions within. The answer to each was |the name of a vegetable. | Dainty Marks for Lingerie. Every girl should have a particular mark for her lingerie, which should appear on all her belongings. It may be her monogram, initial in design, or a favorite flower, sach as a daisy, vio- ! let, forget-me-not, or other small flow- If a simple initial is used, it will be a great saving of labor and expense to use the initials cut from discarded handkerchiefs, as they are almost as good as new.

Ribbon is to be a great feature ot the coming season novelties, and its possibilities apparently are endless. Once upon a time it was merely tied into bows and therewith its sphere of usefulness and ornamentation be- gan and ended. But the coming ribbon will not rest content with so restricted a field. It will be made into frocks with plenty of lace insertion to hide the inevit- able joints, into scarves with more lace and much ruching and frilling of tulle, into flowers of all sizes and ! shapes.
