FANCY SHIRT WAISTS.
Shirt waists get more fanciful as tho
season advances. one very lovely shirt
waist has a sleeve which consists OF a
number Of puns. The sleeve has n silk
foun1atiOn over which grenadine is
puncd. Crenadine is very wide and If
it is used two yards will be enough for
q pair of sleeves. In buying gronadine
It is well TO count the money in ones

that price you can say something cheap
err. please, and can eventually suit your
self with grenadine al, say eighty-five
cents a yard. Two yards viii make
you a pair Of sleeves.
THE SLEEVE PATTERN.
The pattern from which these sleeves
are made is plain bishop sleeve. The
bishop sleeve is cut out and made. After
it Is completed &c Is put on and ribbOas
arc tied around It az intervals OF two
or three inches each. leaving little pufs
in between. IL stirring is preferred 10

10 is well in making such a bishop sleeve

putting.
A great many people who wore bishop
sleeves when they were in style and
who nave very good dresses now with
such sleeves in them, are transforming
them by this method and the result Is
very beautiful and up-tO-date sleeve.
Indeed great many Of the pretty sum-

way by Transforming old sleeves by
