fashions are upon us only to add to tn,

"A little feature that is playing an i'm

ion is the waistband, and one has to be
very careful when glittering belts as
sail one on every side. Black and
wn1te elastic bands decorated with cut
steel ~paillettes are still being worn,
but they are somewhat giving place to
satin and glace bands, boned and fitted
as carefully as a bodice. Then there
are all sorts of attractive, p~ale-colored
kids and feathers arranged with gold
buckles; others in suede are allowed to
fasten at their own sweet will and are
finished with straps and buckles like a
saddle girth.
Pompadour designs are very fashion

the skirt made with a shirred yoke, is
figured with tiny pink roses on a white
background. These lowered materials
are as varied as the designs. ranging
from stately pompadour brocades for
the dowager, to the crisp fresh or
CANDY for the little maid. The very
latest summer fabrics are really SO
decorative looking themselves that
they require little trimming.
Next to the mulls and lawns for or
binary wear, are the linens, piques and
ducks. A very smart packet and skirt
costume of pale blue butchers linen,
trimmed with strappings of the same
material, piped with butter colored
Datiste forms a charming summer
gown. The points of the strappings
are held down with tiny gold buttons,
and the jacket with Elton fronts has a
tiny position back which makes the
ensemble exceeding chic. Under the
Jacket a tucked white silk blouse is
worn, gathered in at the waist with a
narrow gold belt.
Pougee silks are cool and comforta-
bic, deliciously so. They are not worn
only Tor smart summer frocks, but con
stitute many a smart travelling gown.
A bewitChing design is made with
seven-goTed skirt, having two broad,
shaped bands down the front seams,
these showing many rows of stitching.
rive tucks flare around the foot.
The blouse is laid in tucks and
plaits. with a band of pongee embroid-
cred with blue and red down the front
and down the shoulder seams. The
collar is of the pongee, tucked and set
off with an embroidered turnover. The
sleeves are likewise tucked and gath
into 2 band at the wrist of en-
broidered pongee. A distinguishing
feature Of the whole affair is the belt
of black velvet ribbon run through a
pearl buckle. the velvet being APP
pliqued with coarse ha~nd-painted lace.
Pongee has one advantage in that it
is becoming combined with almost any
color. Never is il more fashionable
than when associated with black, if the
material be taffeta or peau de
sole. Mourning gowns of pongee and
black are delightfully."- chic and afford
great relief from the black and white
combinations, which must inevitably
become mOnotOnCuS. Lined with black
they are more beautiful still.

and it is seen in very bright,
