THE PASSING OF THE BIG SLEEVE.

THE PASSING OF THE BIG SLEEVE.
Of the gown was of light moss green satin
face cloth. The two front panels extended
up to the neck, forming vest. The
basque bodice was cut into sharp points,
with three covered buttons down each
side. There was a draped collar of taffeta
a couple of shades lighter than the cloth.
The sleeves fitted almost snugly at the
shoulder, but there was a plated frill of
the brocade to hide the fact Another
pair of sleeves to neat little basque were
in gigot shape, but they we're strapped
across the outside in such a way as to re-
duce their apparent size one-half. The
skirt to this was auted very full. The
vest was richly embroidered in green floss
picked out with gold. The material was
stone colored reps. The vest and collar
were of ivory cloth, the collar bordered
with green and gold cord. The buttons
were bone of the same shade as the cloth.
Even the balloon puff sleeves are smaller
than they were, but they are longer than
before. There was very quaint conceit,
with sort Of marguerite effect, in gown
Of figured mohair in browns and green's.
The skirt was plain.
These ruffs are quite often seen and are

green velvet draped high to a point in
front and fastened at the left side under
small rosette. There was wide white
linen puritan collar, and above that a
ruff, with jabot of the same lisse reach
ing to the belt.
Among the most graceful Of the new
blouse waists I singled out onef for descrip-
ton. 1t was of cream white serge like the
skirt, and tho sleeves were loose and quite
large, being a cross between bishop and
gigot. There were two solf straps stitched
with green saddler's silk and each having
three flat gilt buttons sot closely together
in form of a trefoil. The belt was finished
and fashioned in tho Same manner, as was
also the collar. The front of the blouse
was arranged in broken folds, and there
were four straps on each side, each having
the three buttons on the point. There
was full vest Of rich cheney silk i'll del
