"The Daylight Store" 205 207' Washington Avenue. The New French Designs Show That Taffeta Is Not to Be Relinquished Because of Cool Weather. NEW YORK, Aug. 24. The Strug gle for and against taffeta Is a page in dress that has never been really written; it has been merely hinted at.

The manufacturers and the dressmak ers were in league in France as they often are. much to their common bene fit, but a large majority of the wo men in this country were against them, Women said they did not like taffeta because it cracked and had the disad vantage of linen in that it required constant pressing. They will not take the word of the manufacturers that the new weave of taffeta was worth while, and that it wore and looked well. The dressmakers here had their ups and downs with the material, Four seasons ago they handled a few even ing gowns of it and then insisted that its vogue was done, that its prestige would be dimmed by the popularity of cheap silks made up quickly into dozens of inexpensive frocks. This was true for a year.

FRENCH PERSEVERED. Leading dressmakers did not handle taffeta and women would avoid wearing it because of this bugaboo about its being so ordinary. For some commercial reason, however, the French manufacturers held on and produced taffeta in quantities, and their allies, the French designers, calmly went on making frocks, and wraps and suits of it. The material crept into evening frocks. It was exquisitely dyed in rich light shades and trimmed with metal lace and huge velvet flowers.

The American buyers brought ovei these models, but insisted, at the same time, that the American women would never accept the fabric. The French designers were quite irate over this opinion, publicly stated, and several imbroglios resulted in Paris. When Mrs, McAdoo, then Miss Elean or Wilson, of the White House, choose her excessively attractive trousseau in New York, she ordered more than one frock in the new weave of tarfeta, sometimes combining it with silk net. Mary women ordered gowns from these models, and whether or not American acceptance of taffeta for ceremonious gowns, it is difficult to say. but there is no doubt of the fact that it has been the standby of the dressmakers for over a year.

There has never come about any general demotion of taffeta through the influence of cheap suits. Whether the average price was above the manufacturer's chance for profits, ar whether the dressmakers united keeDine ud its Drestisre. is an unsolved! problem, but the majority of good taf feta gowns have been for the afternoon and evening. Cheap coats and skirts as substitutes for linen ones have neither been advocated nor exploited. This is comforting news for the woman who has HIDDEN HOUSE BY CLARISSA MACKIE Copyright, 1915, by the McClure Newspaper Syndicate.

JACK SHIRLEY had accepted the assignment with a beating heart. If he made good on the first great "story" which the "Chronicle" hart given him, he would stay with the bunch of regular reporters who covered great cases, instead of hanging 'around police headquarters picking up stray items and sordid county court news. "Remember, Jack, the man has been In prison for twenty years once he was a great politician, a rich man, respected by all but he was found out in a big steal. He's done time and now he is out. What is he going to do with the rest of his life? Bring me the story and you'll get yours, The chief smiled significantly and Jack, with his meagre data concerning the present whereabouts of Lawson Roberts, hustled away to catch the first train for a remote Long Island village, where it was said Roberts was in hiding.

At Sandways Jack guardedly questioned the host of the solitary hotel. He reasoned that Lawson Roberts would seek sanctuary under an assum ed name. "Many strangers in town?" repeated the hotel man, thoughtfully nibbling a toothpick. "Cant say as they are It's the end of the summer season and all the boarders have gone. I reckon you're an agent of some kind maybe selling books?" Jack smiled evasively "I'll bet there's one old party you couldn't sell a book to not if you was to take off ninety per cent of the price," went on the man.

"Who is he?" "Name's Robinson taken the old Hidden House used to be Judge Hid den's place. Celia Hidden married Lawson Roberts, 'the politician; he's in prison now for crooked dealing. His wife died ten years ago and the place belongs to the daughter. It's never been rented until recently, when Mrs. Hester Bird rented it.

No one ever heard of her before; and now her brother, old man Robinson, and his daughter have arrived. And they're all as close mouthed and uppish as can be; as if Sandyways folks weren't good enough for them. And stingy whew!" "Well, you're not very encouraging," responded Jack with a bored air as he moved away. But when he was out of sight his pace quickened. The first urchin he met directed him to Hidden House on the outskirts of the village.

Most soaps and prepared shampoos contain too much alkali. This dries the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and ruins it. The best thing for steady use is just ordinary mulslfied cocoanut oil (which is pure and greaseless), and is better than soap or anything else you can use.

One or two teaspoonfuls will clean.iC the hair and scalp thoroughly. Simply moisten the hair with water and rub it in. It makes an abundance of rich, creamy lather, which rinses out easily, removing every particle of dust, dirt, dandruff and excessive oil. The hair dries quickly and evenly, and it loaves the scalp soft, and the hair fine and silky, bright, lustrous, fluffy and easy to manage. You can get mulslfied cocoanut oil at any pharmacy, It's very cheap, and a few ounces will supply every member of the family for months.

TRIMMED WITH FUR. Paris is making Autumn suits of the material and trimming them with nir to show her appreciation of the fact that they will be worn until Thanksgiving.

Possibly this is not the real reason; she may have heard of the astounding popularity of fur over here this Summer and thought to pleaws the American clientele by adding peltry to early Fall materials, for in America nothing is free from fur except sleeping gowns. Few women seem to have hesitated over aading a white fox to a gown on a hot summer's day and the average silk sweater has been lavishly heaped with brown peltry. The sketch, which has been made a new Paris model to show women how things will go in the early Autumn, represents a suit of brown taffeta which can be worn as a frock without a blouse beneath. The skirt is pleateu from a fitted yoke and the coat blouse is double breastedi quite slim in its lines, has a double belting and a large flaring collar across the back. This, as well as the cuffs, is of brown fur.

HOT WEATHER COMFORT Scientists have taken up the task of solving, in a practical way, most of the problems of everyday life.

Heat is one of our everyday Summer occurrences we have far too much of it, in most regions, to suit most of us. And of late years scientists have been turning their attention to the means whereby we may lessen our discomfort and suffering from heat. To begin wirh, we are cautioned not to eat too much. Just now overeating is blamed for so many ills of the flesh, and of the spirit, too, that there is some danger that we may eat too little. That danger is slight, however, according to these same scientists.

Cool drinks, we are reminded, are not necessarily cooling. They cool the mouth and many ot us nave Known the time when we would cast ai! science aside simply to cool a parched and dry mouth and throat. Cool water, not iced, but cool, is, however, always a cooling beverage, and we should drink plenty of it, not too much with our meals, but at frequent Intervals throughout the day. Rich ice creams are almost as heating as steamed puddings. And they take long to digest, too.

Water ices, consisting of sugar, water and a flavor ing agent, usually a iruii juice, are about in the same category with iced drinks, although they sometimes retard digestion because of their chilliness. Another thing to make us cool Is exercise. That sounds like a contradiction. But the truth is that if we are unduly fat we suffer from the heat, and if we exercise and keep our flesh within bounds we are more comfortable. Moreover, exercise keeps our physical condition sound, and helps us withstand evil effects of intense heat.

This exercise, however, should be taken in the cool part of the day In the early morning or in the evening, on very hot days. And it should not be indulged in to excess if we have work to do that takes strength. pocket and approached the ticket window. "Don't stand in the aisles, please.
