DAINTY NECKwEAR.

very pretty necKWear is beng
shown in the shops now, both for wear
with tailor-made suits during the cool
days that may be expected for some
little time and for wear with wash
shirt waists. The silk and lace TRIES
shown for dressy wear are the very
incarnation of daintiness and fragility.
Fancy collars in chiffon, maline, silk
null or soft silk, left undecorated or
topped off with butterfly bow or a
square bow or a very smart little
three-sided bow, take the lead.
The majority of the collars are I'M
lined. But they are well-bred collars
and they maintain a certain dignity
and an irreproachable unwrinkaole-
ness. How they do it is the secret. In
the stores they say it's all in the cut.
They say the shapes the thing. And
the shapes are practically unchanged
from those that have been worn dur
ing tn winter. The favorite ones are
scooped out little just under the
chin and a curve little higher on the
sides.
Collars that are finished without
bow or tie of any kind are much more
| elaorate than the stocks. One very
pretty model shown in one of The
stores yesterday was made of straight

separated by fancy hemstitching, and
with insertions of white embroidery
placed at intervals. The model was
edged with a narrow band of black.
Another collar was of pure white IN
touched by any color. White m ousse-
line de sole was used for the fou ida
ton, and insertions of cream lice
formed the decoration. Three rows of
narrow guipure lace, separated by
bands of pale blue ribbon and edged
with ribbon of the same shade. made
another pretty collar. A loose ros tie
of the ribbon made an attractive fin.

A very smart black and white con-
lection was formed of about four
transverse rows of bias folds of white
liberty, separated, of course, by fancy
stitching. Inserted into the front was

the collar was finished. Both tie and
collar were edged with a narrow pip

was very dainty. 1t was made of very
fine white maline. The tall collar was
decorated quite near the top with very
narrow bands of white velvet, sprin-

orations enriched the ends and the
borders of the fluffy maline bow.

chiffon and lace orchids. The ties.

broidery. Little turnover collars of
the same material as the ties added to
the effectiveness of some OF the
stocks.
Bsides the made-up stocks long
scarfs were shown-the kind that can
be folded around the neck with the
ends brought in front again to form
the tie. The newest of the silk ones
were of printed gauze; the cotton ones
were plain white and polka-dotted.
