founce is SEEM A pretty arrange
ment for soft silks is series of pinked-
out ruffles about four inches deep,
gathered very full and overlapped
about half the depth of each, the
fluffy ruche thus formed being nearly
q quarter of 4 yard deep. Sometimes
there are only three or four ruffles
thus arranged. or there may be three
or four plaitings: laid in double or
triple box-plaits. The object is TO
give y fuller effect at the bottom of
the skirt, which. is certainly much
more becoming than an untrimmed
skirt, unless it be very full The
broken outline afforded by a full
ruching or plating always enhances
the beauty of a pretty foot rs it peeps
in and out while it softens the defects
and apparently dinlinishes the size of
one that needs such advantage.
There seems to be almost Il f,xreur
for the use of MORE ribbon in narrow
widths-from one to- two inches.
Draperies of plain net-black. white
or cream-are striped lengthwise with
these narrow ribbons and several
rows are sewed around the bottom,
thus forming plalded trimming.
Skirts of soft wooden fabrics have sew
cral rows-from three to tive-around

garniture often finishes the drapery,
