This 18 especially tially injured but by sour own ere. True of the woman who has children to colthe; after Bobby gets his new shoes and Dottie her new sum- mer underwear, etc., there will be little money left over to buy Moth- er a white hat. Yet we all feel that our dari, "everyday" stray hat looks frump- ish with a white or light-colorea dress. The ideal hat to wear would be a white, rather large brimmea shade-hat, Such a hat can be crocheted very inexpensively. Ana the result will be every bit as be- coming as a bought straw one. Here are my directions; White Shade Hat: The first stop is 10 buy a white 'wire frame of 8 shape which suits your face. Then make a chain of eight, working very loosely and using single white crochet silk, join in a ring. 5 ch, 1 d. ¢. into the next st. ot ring *' 1 ch, skip 1 st, 1 d.c. into Leura. A. Kirkman * 1 ch, 1 d.c. over the same ch' (to increase), 1 ch, 1 d.c. into next ch. Repeat from * all the way around. Third Row; Work 1 d.c. over first ch. * 1 ch., 1 d.c. over the same ch, to increase 1 ch, 1 d.c. over next ch., 1 ch.,, 1 d.c. over next ch. Repeat from * all around. Your circle should now measure two and one-half inches. If it is too large, work tighter or use a smaller hook. It it is too small, work locser or use a larger hook. Continue to work around and around, increasing often enough to keep the circle flat. (if it draws in on the edge you are not increasing often enough, and it it ruffles you are: increasing 00 often.) When this circle is large enough to cover the top of the hat-frume's crown, work without increasing for three inches--or until it is long enough to cover the entire crown. Then, in next row, increase in every other stitch and from then on, work around and around, increasing often enough to make the work lie flat on the brim of the wire frame. Make this brim part three rows be- yond the edge of the frame (these three rows hang over the edge of the frame, or may be sewed flat onto a white silk lining which goes on under the brim of the wire frame). A wreath of simple flow- ers trims the hat--or merely a bow or ribbon. To morrow--Some Good Candy Recipes.

Gossip in theatrical oircles in Pais continues to interest itself in Sarah Bernhardt. Anecdotes about her are to 'be heard on all sides, but the most talked of subject is Sarah's origin.
