obtain the ured-in-while- e-hot-appearauce.
This to the uninitiated appears difficult
matter but like everything else-its easy
when you know how. The fit, if the gar
ment is dependent on the lining, which is
scanned, darted and buttoned Just like any
other dress waist, the trick being in success
fully stretching the bias material (and you
see this could not be accomplished with
straight goods) across this lining from side to
side and secreting the fastenings on the
shoulders and under the arms. See? All
very well for the full, well-rounded figure,
but how about those to whom dame nature
has donated more grace and less flesh! l
hear you inquire. Well for ali such, Sara
Bernhardt who has been called the
PATRON SAINT OF THIN WOMEN,
has fixed as fashions in the loose and flow
ing that will exist and be standard until all
the spiritueile have been embonpoint and
which STYLES are as adaptable to wash goods
as to silks and laces. The large cool
sleeves, surplice waist, the folds held in
place at the belt line by one of the many
useful buckles, which are introduced ex-
pressly for this style and which come curved
like a corset steel to fit the body, and
draperies the most easily laundried, will
always be sensible and pretty style for all
material known as "wash goods"

aided as trimming for solid-colored ging-
hams and percales used upon jacket fronts
sometimes the entire front being made of
the embroidery-tor collars or vokes and
cuffs, and introduced upon the skirt in pam
nels after the manner of the accompanying
illustration. Wide vandykes of this white
embroidery will be inserted straight across
the front of pointed bodiceS in woke fashion.
The vandyked footbaud of the new woolen
suitings is reproduced in the new ginghams
in the.same Venetian and Russian and point
du genes effects. Dealers say batste was
never SO fine or e1quisitely colored as the
present season. the choicest of these have
wide hem-stitched ecru-colored bands with
pointed designs above this, also in ecru, the
points extending up over the delicate anne
thyst, old pink, gobelin blue or other plain
color. These, like the wool suitings, have
the same design on opposite selvedge mar
rowed to serve as garniture Tor the waist.
THE BORDER IDEA
is also carried out on the all-white goods.
Some times little delicate coIoring is in
troduced as tinv spray beading, or in an
all-over shower OF flowers in natural tints-
the colors only border deep. In white en-
broidere3 muslins we note the absence of all
coarse open work and close imitation OF
the fine French handwork, which is long
step toward greater refinement in this line.
For trimming wash material of all kinds,
open-patterned gimps and passamenteries OF
cords; some made all white and others with
colored cords to match plain color, to be
trimmed, are shown. This trimming comes
from an inch to several inches in width, and
in most of the new pointed designs.
While it is not possible to enumerate
within the limits of an article like this, all
that is new and "too-lovely-
enough has been mentioned to raise the
question whether we shall not he in the
same plight with the other donkey who
stood untethered among several ricks OF
hay and starved to death because he wanted
all and couldn't make up his mind which
