0 LL {in Jn Are These F etching Summer Frocks| 6726 -- By Maude Hale. Frocks for warm weather wear are legion and always interesting, To enumerate the various materials in which they are developed would be to catalog all of the sheer and semi- sheer fabrics produced by foreign and domestic manufacturers; so the question reduces itself to a mention of the materials that are most ex- tensively used by the designers wh creations are the last word in fas! One mast plead guilty to the acci- sation of repeating a threadbare phrase in stating that stripes are more in demand than ever, but truth ever has demanded sacrifices. What is one to do when each week brings novelties never before and too beautiful to pass unsung? Really, there i€ no end to the stripes shown for summer frocks. Many are 80 narrow fhat they are almost lost in the weave of the fabric, while NEW EXPLORATION STOCK "Alberta Oil Company's (Security on N.Y. Curb New York, June 19.--Stock of the International Exploration Company was introduced on the curb today, trading beginning at $1.50. This is a Canadian corporation, with a cap- ital of $2,000,000, par $1, of which $1,600,000 is in the treasury. The company is organized to explore for oil in the Province of Alberta where it has under lease extensive holdings of oil territory; the company also has options on oil lands in Wyoming and Eastern Canada.

With the pay- dreamed of others are so exaggerated that the seem to be lost into space. The hairlines that are placed about an inch apart strike a happy medium, however, being used attractively for one-piece frocks, A raspberry and white creation is distinguished for its simplicity of treatment. On the skirt and bodice the stripes run vertically, but for the front panel they are veer- €d crosswise. The panel escapes the waist-line pointing into the vest, and its lines are not interrupted even by the belt of white corded ribbon. This waist finish ends at either side of the panel, being tied in plain sailor bows with nine-inch streamers, at the ends of which are more bows, o Trimming the lower edge of the i Skirt is a deep band of plain white batiste, lace edged. The collar and cuffs are of batiste also trimmed with lace. At the base of the collar is a white silk ribbon bow. Very fing stripes are introduced in many lovely border effects, especially pongee silks and foulards.

Price, which foundered mn the great storm of November 9, 1913, suffi- ciently to enable them to bring her three miles closer to the mouth of the St. Clair River. Two large German steamships were torpedoed in the Baltic on Fri- day evening. 3 THE STANDARD BANK HEAD orrice OF CANADA TORONTO SOLDIERS, ATTENTION! 6801-6787 Yingly pretty afternoon dress has a tunic of bordered material draped over a foundation of of plain silk trimmed with bands of two-inch braid. The border is used to trim the waist, extending across the sleeves, which are cut in one with the waist. Another unusual feature about this cobtume is the square neckline, now exploited so enthusiastically by French designers. Many of the new bodiceés hdve the upper part slashed straight across from shoulder to shoulder, so that they can be slipped over the head, obviating thé usual means of adjustment. Of course thoughts are going to arise about the perfection the neck requires for such a style, and it may as well be said right here that unless the neck is unusually pretty this fashion should be considered seriously before it is adopted. There are so many lovely frocks this season that one well can afford to be independent of special styles, Em- broideries are as numerous as stripes, mn in, DIED IN SOUTH AFRICA. Deceased Was a Nephew Of Sir John A. Macdonald. The death has occurred at Waorces- ter, Cape Province, South Africa, of Henry Macpherson Clark, in his sev- enty-eighth year. Mr. Clark was the nephew of the late Right Hon. Sir John A. Macdonald, G.C.B., and left Canada for South Africa in 1877, the year before Sir John entered upon his second term of officer as premier of the Dominion. Sir Bar- tle Frede was then Governor of the Cape, and Mr. Clark stayed with him at Government House for a time after landing in the country. Mr. Clark joined the Cape Forest Department, and was placed in charge of the Worcester plantation, later on being transferred to Bean. fort West, In 1884 deceased be- came superintendent of the planta- tion, as well as superintendent of convicts at Kiuitjes Kraal, in the dis- trict of Talbagh. On attaining the age.of sixty Mr. Clark retired on a pension and settled at Worcester, where his official labor had begun, The deceased was an ardent lover of arboriculture, and an enthusiastic and assiduous forester. His excel lent work gained the highest appre- ciation, and the Kluitjes Kraal plan- tation, established by him, now cov ers an area of 3,000 acres, and is a valuable asset of the state. The late Mr. Clark left a widow, two sons and two daughters. r---------------- Seeing Boyhood Scenes Brockville, June 17.--Hon.

Mr. McCarthy left Toledo 62 years ago, and bas since resided in Iowa, where he has been 3 Jusuber of the State islature and a prominen public agis His last visit to the place of his nativity was at the time of the Old Boys' Reunion here in 1906. He was in Chicago at the Re- publican natjonsl convention, 6719 and as persistently demand frequent mention, Delightful effects are shown in broderie anglaise worked on batiste, linen and lawn. When the embroidery is done in white on a colored background beautiful com- binations are achieved. Deep insertions and medallions of embroidery often are used to trim costumes of linen, batiste and crepe Georgette. Nothing is daintier than to outline these trimmings with tiny frills of lace. The shops abound in novelties for the summer woman's wardrobe. Those seeking the bouffant effect will be interested in the hip hoops of net, which are to be had in var- ious lengths. Hen distenders, simil- arily fashioned, are also among the things she is apt to need this sea- son. Fortunately the styles may be adapted to gingham as well as silk, and there are numbers of charming McCarthy, Ames, Iowa, eighty-thres| models in plain and fancy ginghams.

Many are button trimmed, while others show smocking, shir- ring, tucks or a bit of embroidery. Bathing suits deserve a chapter to themselves, and might indeed get one, if all the glories of these suits could be described. in one article. Since this is impossible, it is well to introduce a description here and there as new styles appear, Salt water satin in handsome checks and stripes is used as frequently as any material in the developing or bathing suits. A model that is pretty and at the same time free from the features that characterize the ex- treme offerings, has collar and cuffs of plain white satin. Buttons trim the front of the suit and the skirt has very deep pockets, emphasized with fancy stitching. Taffeta is also used for these suits, and is very pretty, but does not seem as satis- | factory as salt water satin, As a a (CUNARD LINE CANADIAN SERVICE REAL MONT TO LONDON From Montreal T. 8 8S.

They are intended to shade the eyes on the beach and are most becom- ing. The brim fits over the bathing cap and is taken off before plunging into the séa. Detachable collar and cuffs sets come to wear with bathing suits, and each model should have two or three of these sets, which may be attached with snap hooks; in this way a fresh collar may be put on without any trouble, Beach costumes and parasols al- ways go together.
