the influence of the chemise, but after diV-
ers false substitute have been put forth
and had their day, this chosen undergar-
ment OF our foremothers retains its hold
on feminine affections, and woven SILK
chemise bids fair TO put the silk under
vest out of sight and mind
This new silk chemise is as pretty, cool
and as graceful a little article Of under
wear as manufacturing genius can turn
out, and the stout women can adopt 1t
without a qualm. It's weave is as fine
and flexible as the most delicate silk stock
ing, and down to the waist It fits the
body like a glove. Below this point 1t IS
slopcd out, without any superiuous full
ness, and falls to the knees. The pretu-
est Of them are edged about shoulders
and armholes with a line of silken lace,
and over the bust open work silk forms
flights Of butterflies and knots of flowers.
Chemise of meshed linen, that is almost
as flexible as the silk, are made on these
same lines. and are durable and comfort
able beyond words.
Toilet Jackets.
There is a very charming air of great
simplicity about the new summer dress
ing gowns, combing jackets. morning
wrappers, etc, due to che fact that the
majority are made Of dotted Swiss and
flmy cross-barred muslin. 1t is true that
many of them are loaded with lace and
threaded with ribbons, but for all that
with dotted muslin and the pretty, mex
pensive point de Paris lace, the sweetest
sort of breakfast negligee for a hot
morning can be dishsd up at no price
at all.
The point TO keep In mind when making
up these summer peignoirs. is to get a
cape like effect over the shoulders with
floating sash ends falling from the bust
to the feet The model for this graceful
pattern is the Curzon jacket that Pa
rlsian lingere evolved for the vicerene 10
wear in torrid India Women who are in
mourning have their Curzon jackets made
of white dotted Swiss, with inset edgings
of black lace, and the frlls that fall from
the shoulders leave the arms coolly bare.
