For Morning Wear,

The coming season will be an excep-
tionany expensive one in the way of dress.
as there is a decided feeling in favor Of
adopting the most costly fabrics for max
ing up into blouse bodices and skirts for
evening wear. Jeweled passementerie and
tinseled trimmings of every kind are al
ready in great demand, and real lace is
being used in profusion for the ornamen-
tation of table dhote bodices. Blouses for
dinner wear are of the most elaborate de-
scription, but the skirts continue to be
plainly made, and so long as this particu-
lar style remains popular the cost of a
fady's evening attire will be inconsiderable
II made at home.
Fortunately, this is an easy matter now
adays, as suitable lengths for making up a
blouse or a skirt can be acquired for a
very small outlay on remnant days: added
to which the modern paper patterns are so
easy to understand as to render previous
knowledge of dressmaking altogether I'M
necessary.
Dresses for ordinary wear during the
earlier part of the day are of the pianest
description, the most popular style being a
loose fitting flannel blouse mounted on to
tight-htting lining and made to fasten up
the left side. About three and one-half
yards of fancy flannel or two and one-haif
yards of ordinary double-Width wooden ma
terial would be sufficient to make a full
size blouse, and four and one-half yards of
double width freze would make nice, full
skirt, suitable for everyday wear.
The most useful shaped skirt for wearing
with blouses of any kind is in five pieces
i e., front. side piece for each side and
two narrow backs. The skirt fits tightly
to the figure right round. All the remain
ing fullness is then gathered on to the
waistband equally each side of the center
of back seam.
