also their trimmings or chiffon in futed

white silk collar all a-iutter with lace
rulings.
A white lawn dress is another sunni, FRY
example. 1t has skirt eight yards round
with three lawn ruffies az the bottom. The
top rtAfle is headed with Valenciennes
and all three are footed with 1t. The waist
is trimmed in dainty fashion. Two rows
Of Valenciennes are run together. to make
a tiny ruche. and five rows of ruching are
thrown over the blouse. bretelle fashion
Little rosettes of lace are perched upon the
shoulders like butterflies.
For summer evening wear novelties are

pretty creaIn-colored silk, figured with
roses. is cut with a skirt almost ten yards
round. The low bodice is OF white tulle,
with a great bow Of black velvet on the
left shoulder. There is a very narrow
black velvet Welt. and the sleeves are tulle
cascades. Garlands of roses catch up the
draperies.
Another artistic frock is OF pale blue
organdie muslin. sprayed with forget-me-
nOts. The skirt has four fiounces, each
edged with Valenciennes. The full. puffed
sleeves are tied with blue and white rib
hons. and more ribbons are used for
shoulder bows. sash and streamers.
