FADS AND MB New York, June 28.—As the sea son advances the fashion settled upon seems to combine the styles of all the ages gone before, although here and there we may find an individual touch which would indicate the gewn was made in 1909 rather than in 1206. Paris says that all skirts are very voluminous at the bottom, cling ing around the hips and finished with a large bow behind, while in this country we have already become familiar with the tight yoke and the plaited apron of the Gallic period. Parts also says that as we advance further toward the autumn months the dresses will be more and more frankly draped until we have reached the voluminous style of the Louis. The most striking characteristic of the present style, says an author ity on fashion, are its "points". T ast summer everything in Paris was square. There were square necks, square figures, sqaure trimmings, but now everything is pointed, after the later style of the Crusades. The lines of the present indicate that the point ed bodice is to be worn, although it may be that the gown will be cut in one piece and the trimmings be de pended upon to give the effect of the required point. Sometimes the point is so low that it extends to the feet, as in the in stance of one heavily embroidered gown with an overdress of chiffon caught on the hips, brought round and tied together in the middle of the front, leaving visible merely a wedgeshaped bit of underdress. Sometimes the point is formed by the overdress itself, which is cut in a point in the center or on either side. Particularly is this possible when the overgown is of jet, for it is a material heavy enough to hang closely to the figure. There Is no lack of attractive and inexpensive materials for the home seamstress and she should have no trouble in finding suggestions for the making of frocks, good looking yet inexpensive. A tour through the shop*; or a glance through any of the well-informed fashion journals should give her all the Inspiration she needs and if she has good taste she should be able to plan a summer wardrobe for a very modest sum. For her tailored frock, unless she can go to a first class tailor, she had better resort to the ready made suits, which may be purchased at a modest cost and invariably look more stylish than the home made suits. Simple morning frocks, however, nearlp any fair seamstress may make without much trouble. For these the shops ; otter a large variety of pretty and : attractive materials. Gingham is j probably the most practical ©n the: list for that purpose, but it is not j quite so smart, as a one tone linen, j Plain chambrays come in delight-J ful shades, wear well and are so i cool and fine of texture that one wonders they do not appear more; frequently in the ready made models. | Particularly lovely tones of yellow in the soft buff and brownish tones art found In this material as in the j linens, and there are some excellent; striped effects in the cool buff and white. For the girl to whom they are be-; coming these yellow shades are most desirable this season, for they are beautiful in themselves, modish, cool looking and stand laundering well. Relieved by white, the linens or the buff corn and yellowish biscuit color ings are charming and a touch of black sets off this color scheme ad mirably. Pink is always a popular summer color, and this year it branches out into a long line of rose and berry tints which are fashionable if not so pretty as the old fashioned pinks. Some- of the pink chambrays and ginghams are especially lovely and girlish, but in linens the choice runs more to the orse shades. Yellow in linen offers a new note of color among the tub materials for the summer months this year, and JNO. P. NELSON Jeweler and Optician Wenatchee, Washington. Located in Fluharty's Store.

Its various tones, rang ing from soft canary to burnt orange are developed in long-coated suits and one-piece models. The pale yel low gown in pique and the deep orange suit are novelties that threat en to remain. The costumes are finished with tailored stitching, and the pale yellows seem always to be braided with narrow white wash braids or treated to a let-in motif of embroidery or heavy lace. Sheer cotton stuff trimmed with lin en in the same color is worked into good loose frocks by the French mak ers, and some of their models offer good suggestions for the home dress maker. One such f rock in buff lawn and linen with plaited frills of sheer white and white pearl buttons was particularly attractive. One sees also many cool and pretty frocks of barred or striped sheer cotton in white and color with trimmings of plain linen matching the color. Crochet buttons are used upon many of the wash frocks and blouses and quantities of narrow Irish, Cluny and Valenciennes insertion enter into the designs of the sheer tub frocks. The crochet insertion without design other than the crochet mesh is also very popular and is now imitated in cheap insertion and lavishly used. Batiste and Swiss embroidery in sertions, edges, and motifs with or without lace, introduced into the de signs are extensively employed by the designers, and a touch of color enters into many of the finest of these embroideries used for blouses, frocks and underwear. Slips, petti coats, amtinees, combinations, etc., showing delicate colors in their fine sheer embroidery trimmings, are among the latest things in lingerie, and though a careless laundress can play havoc with them, they certain ly are dainty and charming at the start Cotton marquisette in stripe or small design of color on a white ground is material for dainty frocks and blouses and is highly attractive. The cotton crepe, plain or embroider ed, now too comes in a long long line of colors and in some of the light tints is extremely pretty. Then there are the dimities, the organdies, the innumerable silk and cotton mixtures and mercerized materials, the em broidered Swisses and the bewilder ing array of silks from pongee to to the finest and most delicate foulards, shantungs, messalines, crepe de Chines and many others. Pannied effects of one kind oran other are making steady progress in the world of fashion, and there is no doubt that theyq will be in full vogue before the summer is half over. Some of the most charming gowns for evening wear are fashioned of plain and figured stuffs, the plain fabric being used for the long skirt and bodice, and the figured for the the panniers and the draping of the bodice. These panniers are put on as full as possible to give graceful lines in the draping. There is al | ready evidence enough to show that j the long waist is a certainty within i the next few months. The basque with the long peplum, pointed fronts, darts and all. has already made its i appearance. Black shoes, unless of suede or i buckskin, have this year completely lost favor for almost any occasion. Patent leather is no longer consider ed good style. Buckskins, in shades of tan, brown, gray and blue, as well !as black, made on one-eyelet models, is likely to be the choice of the sum mer girl for run about wear. These shoes have buckles of buGkskln or of j metal. For really hard wear, like mountain-climbing and tramping on country roads, tan leather will be worn. To produce the very fashionable changeable effect modish women have taken to wearing one pair of stock ings over another. Of course both are of the sheerest silk and the under pair is usually of a brighter and more vivid color than the outer. FGLORENCE FAIRBAKS.

FOUNDER Washington, June 28.—The last public function which President Taft will attend before his deparure for the summer capital near Beverly, Mass., will be the unveiling and dedi cation of the granite memorial erect ed here in honor of Dr. B. P. Stephen son, founder of the Grand Army of the Republic. The ceremony will take place on Saturday afternoon and President Taft and Representative J. Hampton Moore of Pennsylvania will be the orators of the occasion. All the regular troops of the city will participate in the parade and dedication and Brigadier General W. W. Wetherspoon will be grand mar shal. General Wood, commanding' the department of the east, has or dered the following troops to take part: Headquarters band and three troops, 15th cavalry, and the 2nd bat talion of the 3rd field artillery at Fort Myer; the engineer band and companies A and B, First battalion of engineers, Washington barracks, and two companies of the Coast ar tillery corps from Fort Washington, Maryland. Major F. S. Foltz, 15th cavalry, will have command of the regular troops. g The memorial is on the circular park of the east side of Seventh street, at the intersection of Louis iana and Pennsylvania avenues. It was designed by J. Massey Rhind, a New York sculptor, and consists of a tall triangular shaft of gray granite with bronze reliefs on the three sides, representing fraternity, charity and loyalty, the principles of the Grand Army of the Republic. The erection of this monument is the first and rather belated attempt to honor the memory of the man who founded the Grand Army of the Re public. The movement for the erec tion of a memorial to him was first suggested a few years ago by Colonel John McElroy, who had joined the army when he was a boy and had served in the 16th Illinois cavalry. Colonel McElroy labored Indefatig ably to Interest the Grand Army and other patriotic organizations for bis plan and It was principally due to his efforts that the Grand Army and the Woman's Relief Corps contributed the necessary funds for the purpose. Benjamin Franklin Stephenson was born in Wayne county, Illinois, Octo ber 30, 1822. In 1825 his parents removed to Sangamon county, where he grew to manhood. He graduated from Rush Medical college in 1850, and began to practice at Petersburg, 111. In 1861 he was elected surgeon of the 14th Illinois infantry and he served with his regiment until June 24, 1864, when he was mustered out. At the close of the war he returned to his practice and established him self at Springfield, 111. During Sherman's expedition to Meridian, in February, 1864, Ste phenson and the Rev. William J. Rutledge. chaplain of the 14th Il linois Infantry, discussed the plan of forming an association among those who had served in the Union army or navy during the Civil war, that would preserve the friendships form ed among comrades and keep alive memories of their common trials and dangers. In March, 1866, the two met by appointment in Springfield and further discussed the matter. The first post was organized at Decatur, 111.. April 16, 1866. The first na tional encampment was held In In dianapolis. Ind., beginning on No vember 20, 1866. It was a grievous disappointment to Dr. Stephenson when representa tives of the Grand Army, assembled at Springfield. 111., to form a depart ment organization, selected another for the highest honors of the order he had founded. A similar disap pointment awaited him at Indianapo lis, when the national encampment was formed. Although Major Ste phenson then accepted a subordinate position, as adjutant general, he felt until his death that he had been slighted by his comrades in these instances.
