A SUMMER OUTFIT.
Tow to Get the Best Results For the Least
Money.

Money.
The decoration Of the person is an
exquisite art. To dress artistically means
to present a variety of living pictures.
1t must not be forgotten that art IS akin
to nature. Nature seldom allows the
coquetry Of sudden contrasts, and at all
seasons the dame is becOmingly gowned,
and she does not despise detail When
we see the dainty, airy, frivolous crea-
ture called 1.-THE summer girl, we hard
ly realize she has risen phenixlike from
the ashes of careful calculations and
wearisome bargain hunting.
4 summer wardrobe means effect for
the least possible outlay of material,
money and time. A woman who can
only afford 500 for her outfit may have
TO earn that amount. Time may be her
equivalent for money, and too many
hours must not be wasted in modiste's
parlors. When money is not a serious
consideration, the luxury of a novelty
gown is an enviable one In these days
ready made garments are of good cut
and fairly good quality, and as long as
fashion insists upon being tickle ones
clothes should not last too long The
only real drawback TO the ready made
gown is its lack of individuality. One
will have to supply that quality in ones
personality.
The following is an outfit any girl
may be proud Of and any girl may have
if she handles her 500 bill with discre-
ton:
a gray covert cloth tailor made gown
can be purchased for $12, the bodice
lined with silk; a dark suit Of tan
