which promise to be very successful.
They are made of black taffeta, black
satin duchesse, peau de sole, or better
grades of black taffeta fin conjunction
with lace. The most attractive OF these
are ruflied like the model we illustrate.
For plain capes ribbed goods. such as
siciliennes, bengalines, and ottomans are
preferred. Jet and silk embroideries are
used lavishly on the yOkes Of these little
wraps, or as an entire covering, OF out
lining the edges.
PARASOLS TO BE GREATLY IN FA-
NOR.
Not only does every woman want to
be silk-lined on these days but she must
use taffeta in every detail of her wOrdrobe
where il is possible to introduce IL. Fancy
taffeta parasols are going to be the rage.
The holder the design, the more chic 1t
will be considered. The plain coaching
parasol is in the background this year
and those Of smooth type are likely 70
be unpopular Hemstitched bands rows
and clusters Of tucks bands Of gathered
taffeta, inserted, bands Of contrasting silk
and shaded striped bands are for those
parasols which have not brilliant plaids
or crosswise stripes In the Roman de-
signs. Plain glaces are tucked, chiffon
are plated. shirred and gathered over
plain glaces or small proceeded selt-color-
ed silks. Much satn-edged grenadine
is used. One Of the daintiest and most
effective models is Of surah, and has
fringed out founce of the same. These
fripgel silk aounces are to be used on
many articles OF attire. This Is the re-
yiyaI of a style Of twenty years ago.
Some of the canopy parasols nave DrlshI
plald ground and shirred bands OF pam
taffeta as trimming Flat tops with clus-
fer of five broad tucks Of contrasting
shades are very elegant.
THE MODIFIED BLOUSE.
Notwithstanding all predictions to the
contrary. the blouse in a modified form
continues to be fashionable. II mas
a snug back. a fitted side effect ana
a slightly full or bloused centre. In other
wards. the fitness that would be taken
nm i'm the darts of a fitted waist Is leit
free and fulled into a belt. The yoke ana
vest effects were too becoming TO DC
given no. and were not suitable with
bodice moulded to the figure. Ihese
waists NAV or may not have fiat basques'
as the wearer selects. Many oL TIC
basoues are cut in tabs.
Redfern's latest creations have THIS nj
ted blouse with so little fulness IN front
that it has nearly the effect OF a pam
bodice For women with good figure
this is q welcome change. 1t IS permissi-
bic where the figure is devoid OF graceful
outlines to retain the blouse erect OF the
past year to a degree.

plain taffeta skirts, which give a touch
of color to the dull-hued costumes. The
Jackets of some Of these costumes are
fitted, yet worn open. Blouse waists will
be much worn in the country. The pref
TEST are left open a little in the front,
showing a white chemisette. The edges
Of the blouse are held together by straps
and buttons. For women with graceful
figures the dOube-breasted tailor bodice,
worn open over a linen chemisette is to
be the correct thing. BOleros and Elton
jackets are also among the new models.
IN WHITE PIQUE.
For fair days in summer, however, the
swell bicycle girl will bloom out in the
glory of white pique. These pique suits
viii be tailor-made, with closed or divided
skirts and the jackets cut in all the forms
described above. The seams of the skirts,
and the jackets as well, are marked by
stitched bands Of pique. White pearl
buttons are the only ones allowed on
these jaunty coats, which will be worn
with black, gray or navy cloth skirts.
White linen suits viii also be worn by
cycle women. There is also a woollen
pique, which is made up into wheeling
suits for the mountains and seaside. All
kinds Of mixed and fancy cloths as well
as plain. will be worn. Ribbed velveteen
will be also a f3yOrite during tie spring
months Small checks are passe.
An elegant costume for spring has just
been made up for a young woman who
prides herself on her stylish gowns for
all occasions. The skirt is of black serge,
longer than usual, following the English
ideas in this respect The short Jacket is
OF white cloth. fitted 10 the figure, but
worn open. The eight large pearl but
tons down the front are merely for deco
ration Either plated cambria or
