All one has to do, to change the last season's frock to a modish model, is to adjust one of these paniers above its hobble lines. The paniers are made of jouy, of flowered taffeta, of thin striped silk and of challis, and are attached to a belt so that they may be adjusted instantly over an ordinary straight skirt.

Paniers are now worn with trailing evening gowns as well as with promenade costumes, but they are most graceful when the petticoat beneath is short etoug'a to reveal a pretty foot and ankle clad in a trim buttoned boot or oxford.

Modish Jabot. Graceful lace jabots give the finish-bag touch to the smartest tailored rigs.

ORNAMENT FOR THE TABLE Arrangement of Without Which the Dinner Is Sure to Seem The tiniest garden cane made to furnish flowers for cutting all through the summer. If flowers must be used more than once, it takes little time to have separate decoration for each meal. The freshness of sweet peas, nastur tiums, pansies, snapdragons, marl golds and poppies makes up for their lack of rarity. At breakfast keep the scheme sim pie; some people will not use flowers at this meal, but a few fresh blooms in a slender vase are, sure to look attractive. Dinner decoration should have thought put into It, and lady of the flowers should bear in mind the family tastes and anniversaries.

The amateur florist often laments the short life of some of her treasures. Poppies, for instance, must be put on the table just when die meal is ready, if they are to be a success at an. A good scheme is to fill vases with water and take them into the garden, putting each poppy in as it is picked. Treated In this way, poppies keep sev eral days and much more artistic arrangement is the result. Few things are more depressing tham fading flowers.

A handful of wild carrot leaves, freshly gathered, is Infinitely better than a florist's elaborate creation which has seen better days. There is a passing fad for flowers arranged after the crowded posy fashion in which we have been trimming our hats and gowns, but the woman who really loves flowers will give them more room and a more natural setting, and content herself with time tried combinations, such as purple pansies with forget-me-nots, pink roses or phlox with delicate lavender tones of sweet peas, green ferns with a few white floowers, or the reddish-brown marigolds and pale yellow poppies. White Satin Mannish Shirts. The new models most in demand for mid summer use are the satin mannish shirts, says the Dry Goods Economist. These are very smart, especially the styles with Robespierre collar and having crystal buttons down the center fron.

The long shirt sleeves are joined to an extended shoulder line, in many cases finished off with a small satin cording. Porch Refreshments. Girls who serve ice cream for their porch parties or summer, jse wing dr cles now endeavor to get away from the beaten track and to offer some va riety of frozen tidbit which will be lees familiar to their guests. For instance, plain vanilla or almond ice Is modified of recent years by the addition of bits of cut-up marshmallows or. chopped nuts of some sort, with or without candled fruit Crystallized ginger chopped rather small Is used in vanilla or in ginger Ice cream.

Cretonne Hats. Little poke and country bonnets have had a great success when made in fine silky straws which have a droll incongruity with their simplicity. They are trimmed with tiny flowers and broderle Anglalse. Some pretty hats of this variety are. however, made up in Valenciennes lace, while others, again, are covered with cretonne and flowered muslin.

In short, there Is In children's millinery the same range of cholc as there is In our own. PARK AUTOBIKS An Innovation in the Shape of a Pay-as-You-Enter Machine to be Given a Practical Test. Arrangements have been made by council with, a prominent automobile company in this citl to place an experimental pay-as-you-enter autobus in Schenley park about August 1. This bus will accommodate from 36 to 40 people, although if the city should decide to purchase cars for the park, the company says they could be- made to accommodate more. It has been figured out by the company, that, to accommodate the visitors to the park the busses should run on a 10-minute schedule.

This it is estimated would take six machines for Schenley park and would cost from $25,000 to Counting depreciation, drivers wages, interest on investment and insurance, tires, oil and gasoline the company representative told, the councilmen the machines be in service 10 hours a day at a ccst of $14 or $15. If the' experiment proves a success the council may purchase a number of machines for the parks. MAIL DIVISION. Beard cf Trade on Record as Favoring It. Pittsburgh will be immensely bene fited, by the.

establishment of a new division of the railway mail service with this city as jts central point, as contemplated in the postoffice appropriation bill, reported in the Senate. Should the bill go through in its present shape, the Smoky City will' assume its rightful position on the postal map, ranking, with New York, Vashington and other cities. Postmaster William H. Davis long has urged the necessity of establishing division headquarters here, and for months has been lending his efforts to bring about its consummation. As Pittsburgh is now the western extremity of the second and third divisions of the railway mail service, with headquarters In New York and Washington, and the eastern extremity of the Chicago, St.

Louis and Cleveland divisions, it is neccessary, when regulating the service, to take up business concerning Pittsburgh with one of these five division superintendents. THE BAND CONCERT. Free Concert at Schenley Park Sunday Evening. A new departure has been arranged for the music which the city gives every Sunday evening in Schenley park and beginning with next Sunday night there will be three band concerts with forty men, under the leadership of W. 1.

Passaquay-Mayer. The concerts start promptly at 7:30 o'clock at the Schenley band stand pavilion. The program for the first Sunday band concert is as follows: PROGRAM: Kaiser March Wagner Suite de Ballet (a) Leandre et Isabelle (b) Scarmouche et Colombine (c) Pizzicato (d) "Moonlight on Hudson Herrman (a) 'Spring (b) "Dragon-fly" Strauss "'Benediction des Poighards' Meyerbeer Intermission. Tone Poem "Maximillian Robespierre" Litolff Slavonic Rhapsody Ftiedermann Introduction to Act III. and Wedding Music "Lohengrin" Wagner Cloche Enchantee Benettl Selection "Amorita." Czibulka SPORTING Big' Field Meet.

imagine 2,000 boys in a single race of five miles, each to run 88 yards, and you have an idea of one of the teatures of the big field meet for boys which the Pittsburgh Playground Association is arranging for Saturday, August 3, at the Schenley Park Oval. There are to be 20 teams of 100 boys in each team and the race is to be a combination marathon and relay race, along lines different than perhaps any other race ever run in the country. Each boy runs one twentieth of a mile, so that by the time the hun- dredth boy on each team has run his A II ,11 1 1 uiaiauie ine live uiuce win nave uetu comp'eted and all of the 2,000 boys will have participated in the race. Twenty boys will be running all the time until the race is completed. The starters will carry a small wand, which they will turn over to the next runner on their team, a complete rotation of the 100 members of each team thud being effected before the race is completed.

Another event which is sure to provoke much enthusiasm is that of the tugs of war between 100 boys on each side. This will be a sort of elimination contest and the strongest team will be found by running through a course of trials to a final. A standing broad jump among 20 teams of 100 boys each, each boy to take only, one jump, is another feature of this novel meet which has been evolved by the committee in charge of the field meet. winning team will be the one whose 100 boys have made the greatest aggregate distance. A novelty race, known as the "centipede race," is expected to produce more mirth than any on the program.

One hundred boys on each team are expected to do the "lock step" a distance of 50 or 100 yards in as good time as they can. Efforts to negotiate the distance in a hurry are certain to result in a number of spills, which will be amusing to the spectators. Handsome prizes will be awarded to the winners of these events, and other events will be announced in the near future." The details of the events as planned by the Pittsburgh association are being watched in many other cities and if successfully carried oUt here will be given the sme lines in the other cities. The Pittsburgh Playground Association has achieved an enviable reputation among the playgrounds of the country owing the number of -va-riety of its games and the present venture is exciting considerable cam-ment. Numerous requests from other cities for full details of the coming field meet have been received from other cities which are planning play but look to the local association to them with roveltles.
