The principal portion of the collar is

Do you realize how stylish wool veil
ing is? 1t is also, let me tell you, one OF
the most useful and best wearing OF
materials. With couple of pale color
ed veilings a woman can feel pretty
well dressed for afternoon and evening
occasions. Pale blue and fawn make
especially pretty dresses, and white
must not be excepted.
An all white yelling gown would be
handsome addition to almost any wom-
ans wardrobe. Polly Benedict, whose
small income forces her to be ecenom-
ica1, has just had two yelling dresses
made over white taffeta. One is pure
white, the other a delicate green The
same skirt slip serves for both, and
both waists are of course made up over
white taffeta to go with it. In this way
a matter Of quite few dollars is saved.
Dresses Slightly Tucked.
The dresses themselves are slightly
tucked affairs, the white one trimmed
with pure white lace and the green one
with brown Arabian lace. With the white
gown Polly wears small hat made of
white roses with big, crumpled bow
and ends of louisine ribbon When
imagine how charming the all white
costume is. Now. why can't some clev-
er girl get two dresses at q slight cost
by giving the dressmaker the two
waists and the single white silk slip to
make and by evolving the yelling skirts
during her spare hours at home?
Slip skirts are very easy to make, and
yelling is SO soft and sheer it falls of its
own accord into graceful folds But let
me give you a hint about the skirts
make them long enough Not one v-o-
man in ten wears her skirts of a grace
full and stylish length. It is not suf1-
cient to have a long train behind; the
skirt in front should lie a little on the
ground so that no space whatever can
be seen between the lower edge and the
ground. You have no idea what diff
ference in a persons height an extra
inch in front can appear to make.
