Excursion Fare, 4011. Leave South Norwalk at 9:30 A. M. Leave New Haven at- 4 P. M. Three hours at New Haven. ' Due at South Norwalk at 7 P. M. ' made of some rich lustrlous July 10.. _.‘ Fashions in Headgear.) Allusionrhas already been made to -e great number of shapes in which 1' Aw bonnets and hats have appeared, the hats as usual outrivalling the hon- nets in the many caprlces of contour and style in which they are shown. There is as much latitude exhibited in i the varied head-coverings as is evinced in the construction of costumes. Both bonnets and hats run through small, medium, and large sizes, the bonnets developing through numerous mOdifi- cations of the French toque, the prin- 'cesse and capote shapes, into the more pretentious Victorian styles which re- . appear this season. In round hats, the models begin with the pretty turbans ‘ and English walking hats, and grade up to the very familiar small cart- wheel dimensions, these monstrosities in straw being made up of numerous dents and smashed-in angles and ec— centric curves—an eccentricity which is noticeable both in crown and brim, with a continuation of the winter’s wild freaks in garnlture in keeping with the shape of the hat. The preva- lence of very rough Openwork straws has brought them into the list of head- wear desirable for travelling uses, yet they are really not commendable, on account of their liability to catch and retain the dust much more than a plain umooth braid. The most serviceable .md stylish looking travelling hats are of English Dunstable straw '.Or Milan braid, with a simple torsade Of some appropriate fabric around the. crown, with loops of the same, and a few quill feathers at one side. In spite of the many fancies that are put forth 'among the models for such uses, the fact still remains that flowers, laces, or dressy garnltures of any description are wholly out of place upon a travel- ling hat. Lovely Summer Styles. The show-rooms Of fashionable ’clty modistes are now brilliant with color and filled with airy garments that are like the breath of early June; and a wonderful and beautiful effect is pro- duced by the grouping together of love- ly eveningvtoilets, bridal gowns, gradu- ating dresses, debutantes, and dow- agers’ trained robes, tea gowns, travel- ling, golf, cycling, and yachting suits, beach costumes, costumes to walk in to talk in, and costumes "in which to do nothing at all." Some of the brides- maids' gowns and the newest tea gowns again copy? historical styles. They have Merle Antoinette flSChus, Victorian bodices, early English waists. Stuart collars, immense Elizabethan neck frills, ilounced skirts; and some gowns modelled after. still earlier fash‘ ions, open down the front of the skirt over pettlcoats of brocade or richly striped satin, the gown ltse being "lety of plain silk or satin.-. wl? numberless picturesque additions to he sleeves.5~.

A sauce tartar that is made with but- ter, which a cooking-school teacher gives to her classes, is a. modification of the usual method of preparing this garnish. A piece of butter the size of a small hen’s egg is rubbed smooth and seasoned with salt, Cayenne, a little dry mustard, and a considerable pinch of sugar. To this is added the yolk of an egg, the whole beaten smooth. A little lemon-juice then cuts the thick ness, and a further tart flavor is so- cured by adding a. tablespoonful of mixed capers“- and cucumber pickles chOpped together. Slave Marta In Finland. A regular slave mart still exists in many country districts of Finland. Once a year such paupers, lunatlcs, and aged people Of each phrish as cannot support themselves are put up at pub- lic auction, and consigned to those families or farmers who will board them at the lowest price Offered by the parish authorities. The helpless crea- tures are made to work as much as possible by their owners, who have the xight to chastise them. Chocolate Cream. Boil one pint of milk and add to it one ounce of grated chocolate.
