For the wool suit of light color which must ho provided in every sum mer outfit there Is nothing more satis factory in the long run than a good quality of hom*espun of not too heavy weight. White or a deep cream is per haps mo&t popular for this style of dress, but the pale soft tones of pink, bbie, green and lavender — shades quite different from any made up for city wear — are unquestionably smart est. Hats are undergoing an Interesting transformation, which, although slow, is sure. Crowns are not so large, brims are decidedly smaller and the iiat which nearly covers the entire licad is not likely to last throughout! 7 T — li e summer.

The bodice is quite plain, Peasant style, with a collar and In this day and generation, .girls and women who go in at all for the different fashionable sports should plan this department of their wardrobe well ahead of time. At present the fav orite tennis costume consists in a bodice of m.».dras or linen, made with long sleeves, Avith either soft or starch ed cuffs, and a skirt of duck, pique or butcher’s linen, cut with long, straight lines and affording sufficient fulness for absolute comfort. A box- pleat, back and front, pressed flat to the fVery edge of the hem but not s:titched more than a few inches below the knee, so that the 'Jids can open out, will give the necessary width for a run across the court. Nothing like vhe amount of material is allowed, how'- ever. as formerly, in the pleat, and in-j deed, a fairly narrov/ skirt is more i comfortable in a sporting dress than the old model with its unnecessary yards of stuff to wrap Itself about one in the wind. Frills of Shear Material. The prettiest finish for a teimis waist consists in a hand-scalloped frill of | sheer French linen fasvened to the | collar, back and front, by small gold or bone collar buttons. There is a sep arate frill placed over the buttonhole flap down the center of the bodice. This frill is the same width as that about the throat—about four inches—^ and knife pleated. A bright colored knitted tie or a wide bow of satin or taffeta ribbon of becoming shade makes a pretty fini&h at the throat with the fine w^hite frill and low col lar. It is still early for summer outdoor costumes, it is true, but in this un certain climate it is wise to be prepar ed for a spell of hot w’eather, which may arrive at any day and again may not be'upon us for another month. Forewarned is forearmed, however, and the midsummer outfit should be well on its way by the end of April. GASTON LEROUX’ Greatest Mystery Story to be Publislied TIME TO ACT.

Don’t Wait for the Fatal Stages of Kidney Illness, Profit by Charlotte People’s Experiences. Oc^'dsional attacks of backache, ir regular urination, headaches and dizzy spells are common early symptoms of kidney disorders. It’s an error to neglect these ills. The attacks may pass off for a time but return with greater iniensity. If there are symp toms of dropsy—puffy swellings below the eyes, bloating of limbs and ankles, or any part of the body, don’t deelay a minute. Begin taking Doan’s Kidney Pillfi. and keep up the treatme^ until the kidneys are well, when your old time ht3alth and vigor will return. Cures in Charlotte prove the effective ness of this great kidney remedy. Charles Hunter, C23 Graham Exten sion, Charlotte, N.
