DRESS I By Anne Rittenhouse OF CHIFFON TAFETA WITH HIGH, CARELESS COLLAR AND WIDE, DOUBLE RUCHE, BELOW THE SHOULDERS Are so Attractive That Several Dell-Dressed Women Are Wearing Them to Afternoon Dances as an Adjunct to a Thin Frock. NEW YORK, June of the smartly dressed women in New York Grew an immoderate share of attenafternoon by reason of dancing in a thin, white crepe de chine gown embroidered in silver, with the upper part mostly of white chiffon and cape of the new variety held around a her shoulders.

When these capes first their appearance in February, they were demurely Victorian. They were made to fit the shoulders by usage of Lateral seams and they hugged the thou neck with a rolling collar or a tightly fitting ruche. With little warning. they burst forth into an entirely new style which had nothing in common with Victortanism and much with. the costumery of Cherry Island.

The house of Premet should probably have the credit for making this kind of neck fashionable. It was not on Renee, the present designer, who saw to it that several dozen gowns from this house were turned out upon America with the neck shaped like a high. straight collar that stood out from the back of the head and across the shoulders like a framework, but ail the other designers of this house who followed in the footsteps of Mme. Le Franc, the woman who gave the house its prominence. She was the first to introduce the Japanese kimono effect in coats, blouses and frocks.

New Kind of Decolletage. Today, Renee has kept to this idea, but has broadened it into more emphatic lines. She has taken the exacting decolletage of the Renaissance. which is almost high back and front and extends acrss the shoulders as the theme line of a straight, high collar. The house of Cheruit was also strongly convinced that this kind of neck treatment was effective, and from this idea, sprung, full fledged, the new shoulder capes which have something of the effect of a shawl pulled high and out, above the shoulders.

It was this kind of cape that was worn by woman who danced in the white crepe de chine frock, and It was made of sealskin and ermine strips, mounted on white chiffon and lace. Since she led the way among certain coterie who dress well, there have been a number of these capes worn at afternoon dances and especially in smart restaurants, for tea and lunch. They are kept on, as the designer had no idea of having them thrown aside when the wearer entered under a public roof. Taffeta is Material. As the warm weather advances, TO ENTERTAIN BISHOP Methodists Arrange for Occupation of New Area Head.

The Wilmington Distriet was transferred from the Philadelphia district to the Washington district at the last session of the General Conference.

George A. Cooke, pastor of Wesley church, who attended the last General Conference at Saratoga, read a paper on "My Personal Impressions of the General Conference." WOMAN'S MARTYRDOM How many men, think you, have any idea of the pain and misery endured by women of their own households, who suffer from ills peculiar to their sex? They often see them smiling and trying to be cheerful. even while racked with pain. If every such woman would only be guided by the experience of thousands of others who have been restored to health by that grand old remedy, Lydia E. Pinkham's VegeCompound, much suffering might be avoided.

AMERICA'S DANGER "FORGETTING GOD" Father Doran Warns Knights of Columbus Against Religious Indifference at Annual Retreat. The second meeting the annual Retreat of the Knights of Columbus, held last night at St. Peter's Cathedral. included a sermon by the Rev. Alvah W.

Doran, diocesan missionary of Philadelphia. Father Doran will deliver the other sermons during the week. Retreat commenced Sunday evening special spiritual exercises. The Rosary was recited. Following the sermon a hymn was sung and the Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament given.

The subject last night was Flaw in Our Civilization." Father Doran opened his discourse by pointing out the glories of the United wonderful governmental constitution, combining great liberty to the individual, with strong central authority necessary for preserving that liberty; her immense natural resources mine and forest, river, lake and field; her passion for education and expenditure of countless sums to obtain it; her dazzling progress and success in invention and manufacture: and finally the natural virtues of her pittractive Yet, being a human institution, we might anticipate the presence of defects either in the laws of the land or the attitude of her people. It seemed the part of a better patriotism to point out any such defect rather than blind oneself or others to it. The speaker considered that as his father had fought three years with the Union army to expand and make clear the spirit of the constitution in the Thirteenth amendment, SO the son might continue the good work by doing his part to remove the flaw in our civilization. As to the constitution, he said, Catholics are satisfied with and proud of its contents, provided only, they be lived up to by nation that "no religious test shall ever be required as a qualification to any office or public trust under the United States." (ArticleVI). The speaker then called upon Sam" to give testimony against himself.

By Bulletin No. 103 of the Census Bureau, Religious Statistics-1906 A. it was shown that in a total population of 84 million people, only 32 million belonged to the 186 different churches, leaving 52 million without any practical religion. Father Doran urged his hearers to 8 double duty. First, to avoid being contaminated by the atmosphere of indifference in which they lived.

This could only be done by truly knowing their religion and understanding that the services of money or social position or running after amusement, could make a human soul really happy here or hereafter. And again their duty should impel them to arouse their fellow countrymen from their dangerous condition. It is not possible to occupy a neutral position between God and His enemy, the spirit of "this he said. America's greatest blessings are from God's hand and her peoif ple, as a nation, do not acknowledge this and do not pay their debt of prayers and worship to God a terrible awaits them. reckonine, glorious privilege.

while striving for our own salvation, to be permitted to use our influence, to the peace and prosperity our country secure, by diffusing the knowledge of God, His laws and His church among our brethren. "God forbid that I should glory save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified to me an I to the world." Galateans VI. vs. 14. Members of Italian Embassy Visit.

The one in the sketch an admirabe example of what the American dressmakers have evolved out of the early capes that over from Paris. This one is entirely of taffeta--shaded green taffeta, that has strong silver light through it. It fits admirably with the new leaves and grass of June If one does not care for taffeta because of its heating qualities, the same cape can be made in chiffon cloth: and the brides of June have such capes included in their trousseau, made of silk tulle in several layers, One such cape is of mauve, blue. gray and palest green.

Instead of the ruche, there, is an extra wide band silver a Venetian pattern. ft is to he worn in the evening as well as the afternoon and is intended as a permanent part of the frock. Each Frock Its Bag. Have you noticed that everybody carries a bag? of course have, 12 you keep your eyes open. For the bag is one of the earmarks of summer frock.

Not the ordinary handbag is this bag of 1916. No, indeed. It is a new sort of bag with a very quaint and time-worn element in its make-up. lathe" is bags a bag worn modeled by on medieval the ladles, chatebag modeled on the little puffs of silk and velvet that hung from the high waistline of Napoleonic beauties. Very often the bag is of the same material the frock.

There is the taffeta frock, for instance. with little shirred taffeta bag on drawstrings of ribbon. There is the frock of stripes in Palm Beach cloth or linen, with matching bag of striped material. There are parasol and bag sets, too. Some of them are of cretonne, some are of silk.

Sometimes there are sets of bag, skirt and hat of cretonne, and sometimes there are sets of hat and bag. These are especially for beach or mountain wear. The bag influence reaches pockets. For the newest sort of pocket is very suggestive of a bag. The pocket is big and the top of it is shirred, bag fashion, so that it lies flat against the skirt, These shirred pockets are used sometimes on smocks and shirred top is smocked to match the rest of the smocking.

A striking coat shows the bag influence in its pockets, but in a different way. The two big pockets hang from the shoulder by two straps, one fastened at the shoulder in front and the other fastened at the shoulder at the back. The pockets hang free from the skirt of the coat, suggestive of the tourist's lunch bag. NURSES TO MEET Program Arranged for State Convention.

Laura Leonard's Helpful Hints For Housewives HOW TO MAKE TUTTI FRUTTI PRESERVE. To the taste of the many seurs in sweets. tutti frutti preserve holds place of first favorite, vying with the Bar-le-duc sweets and with guava and other imported jellies.

Recently a correspondent offered to send in al recipe for Italian tutti frutti, and we shall be glad to publish this as soon as it is Meantime, there may be housewives who will like to start a tutti frutti jar before the strawberry season closes, and for this reason a few suggestions regarding it are herewith given. Tutti frutti preserve is a combination of various fruits sometimes put together with sufficient brandy to vent fermentation, and sometimes cooked like any ordinary preserve, only sugar and water being added. Most people. I think, find the ed preserve richer and more distinctive in flavor than that which has been cooked, and as the alcohol properties seem to have become practically evaporated by the time the preserve is ready for the table, there seems very slight objection to it on any score. One's favorite recipe for tutti frutti is quite likely to be like her favorite suet pudding recipe- the one and only genuine." As a matter of fact, any proper combination of fruits can be used.

It is well to remember, however, that blackberries are not desirable, as they spoil the color of preserves. Currant seeds spoil the texture, and if it is desired to have currant flavor in the tutti frutti, one should strain the currants and add the juice only. Pineapple is likely to ferment. and when using this in an uncooked mixture, the pineapple should be cooked for 15 or 20 minutes first. Bananas also are likely to ferment.

Pears and peaches should be peeled before being added to the tutti frutti, and all seeds or stones removed. Whenever a fresh addition of fruit is made to the tutti frutti jar, the entire mass should be stirred together so that the newly added fruit flavor may become thoroughly incorporated. Even the housewife who does not care to stock up very lavishly with heavy sweets may be glad to have ar of tutti frutti, as it makes a delectable flavor for ice cream, for cup pudding of it, sauce also, and stirred jelly into disheamed pudding or into a jam cake, gives a rare flavor. For five or six pounds of fruit, allow an equal weight of sugar a pint of alcohol, brandy, rum or whiskey. Put the liquor and sugar into a large jar or crock and add the fruits from time to time as they come in season, beginning perhaps with pound of strawberries.

Never use any fruit having the least decayed spot. Nuts, almonds, or a very few peach kernels may be added at discretion, with a little lemon rind and juice, should the mixture seem too sweet. Some favorite combinations are as to follows: (1) Strawberries, raspberries, red currants, red plums and apricots, (2) Strawberries, red currants, red plums, seedless or seeded grapes, peaches and pears. (3) Strawberries, stoned cherries, red currants, apricots, pears and pineapple. (4) White cherries, apricots, pears, white currant-, pineapple and, ground cherries.

(5) Strawberries, blackberries mulber. ries, dark cherries, dark plums or prunes, peaches and pears. For the cooked conserve the fruits are usually allowed to lie for a few hours in equal weights of sugar and are then boiled gently in their own juice like jam, early fruits being combined with late fruits as suggested above. In mixtures where oranges are and pulp are someused, the peel times put in as described above, and and cooked as for sometimes soaked The nuts, if added, are marmalade. added last.
