SOME DRESS HINTS.
Few Suggestions Which May - of Service to the Home
 Dressmaker.

A pretty little lawn gown which aas one of the full skirts is made in charming and simple fashion. It ia ?. a pretty, plain, sheer lawn, and the skirt is fitted snugly al. around with narrow lengthwise tucks. These reach little below the hips and are shorter in the back than in front. Below the tucks the skirt hangs full. tt IS finished with a flounce headed with band of lace insertion, and with lace insertion set in around the edge. There is little round bodice which opens iu the back and is gathered tull into band at the waist. There Is also a little round yoke of lace in. sertion, with just line of the lawn, giving touch of color and strength, between the rows of insertion. The transparent is made in the same way, three rows of the insertion, with the separating lines of lawn and a little iace edge at the top. A feature of this particular gown is the pointed tabs of lace bound with the lawn which are Jet in at intervals around the yoke hanging down about a couple oi Inches, says the New York Times.
 Bands used for trimming linen and other wash dresses are many of them btitched on with three rows of stitch. Ing in the center, leaving the edge Tree. This makes a little difference in the effect. In some gowns the edges are corded, in frock of plain color, with eaavy white cord, n3d in others there is simply piping of white. The watermelon pink gowns and waists are much worn this year, and many linen gowns are in that color. A bright dark green is also much seen In linen gowns.
 There is no doubt that the linen waists trimmed with the heavy bands of embroidery in different colors. the Armenian work or Bulgarian strips are the most striking to be seen. One for instance, in watermelon pink has h crosswork of the strips across the front, it buttons in the back, there i. stock of the embroidery, and it fin lshes the sleeves just below the elbow and from there down is an undersleevs of coarse-looking stuff of cream white gathered into a band of the embroi dery. A waist trimmed with the sam, embroidery is of green linen. It ha. . broad collar edged with the embroi dery, which forms the stock, and i. on the sleeves. The collar is fastened where it meets at the bust line witf black bow, and to match a bit 0. gold in the embroidery there is { broad folded belt partly of gold com bined with black.
