white taffeta silk.
This softens the red in places like a
bloom Of frost, a vest and neck ruche of
white silk muslin giving an elegant finish.
The hat is a sailor shape OF black Panama
trimmed with white muslin quilting and two
long black wings. The parasol may be
either white taffeta. under the white nous
scline. or else be Of the same cheiry-rel
linen 40 the gown. AS to shoes for this toilet
there are two sorts to select from. One Of
the fads of the season Is to have the shoes
made Of the same material as the costume
that is with the unigured linens and ducks
so over a stout white lining the little
shoes for this toilet could be Of the same red
linen. Otherwise black patent leather
pumps would be In excellent keeping. ana
1t may be agreeable to know here that these
trim little affairs are to be more worm IMAM
ever.
But a moment more with this darling
cherry frock, which of course is something
very dress up indeed. II stands to reason
that none but The most knowing ringers
could ever CcOmpli that WONDERFUL tuCh-
ing of a gored skirt,
sI shall never do another a Just the same
way" said the great d~ressmaker, who was
showing off the creation. Il have found Out
that / can get the same effect with bias tolds
laid on a gored foundation" So, If you
think this costume a good model for your
type, take the hint. Only remember that TO
wear these pale sparkling reds you can't
have red cheeks as we'll and a figure like a
pillow tied in the middle. They are only
suited to slight lines and clear c%olorless com
p!eNiCus.

H BLUE SASH VARIETY.
The treasures of this dainty lot, however,
are the last two costumes. These are OF the
hlue-aash variety, dear to the male heart,
and IL they are not calculated to 90 deadly
damage some hot June day, then the lore

FABRICS, HATS AND PARASoLS.
A new variety Of white embroidered muslin

The new embroidery is OF course machlne
made, but a delicate Following OF some OF
the muslins gives a mellow suggestion Oh
age. ~
The gown shown is in pure white over
maize yellow silk. The bodice lining Is
cut low in the neck and is made without
sleeves. .,
All the insertions of the outside are OF
real Valenciennes lace and white taneta
ribbon. in a belt, stock and bows, hnishes
with simple elegance the bodice.
with all this summer finery, OF course, cor

the thin dressy frocks there are paraso!s
that are almost like bouquets with their
masses of flowers and fiounces OF chinon'

them all: and now the very cockiest thlns
with these is to have the hand rest a bird OF
