same classification as regards means OF

No other material has been more favored
this summer, and its styiishness Is sure
to held well with the autumn. 1t is eS-
pecially attractive in shirt waist suits,
for which polka dotted weaves with dark
or bright blue ground are the stylish
choice. These suits are cut on rather
severe lines, being tucked and trained a

lard giving all the decoration. Plain
solid blue foularas are handsome when
stitched with white. or when finished
with very narrow white silk braid. The
seated figure of these pictures presents
blue foulard finished with white braid,
silver embroidery and with white silk
stitched in blue and ornamented with
lace medallions. Blue foulard gowns
stitched in crimson and bright green are
stylish, but white more often is the selec-
ton. The sprawly patterns seen earlier
in the season are deliberately trimmed
with lace, insertion and ribbon and are
more dressy than are the small figures

Fashion Notes.

Fashion Notes.
Embroidered mousseline sashes are ex-
quisite.
Wash ribbons have a white warp, so
even the black is not black.
Broche figures along with warp-print-
ed ones give enchanting effects.
Fish net forms the ruffie on a white silk
petticoa, and is run with black bebe vel
vet.
Ready-to-make-up linen comes now
tucked and embroidered as well as hand
embroidered only.
Oak leaves and acorns form some of
the new foliage hats" that have sprung
into sudden popularity.
Most attractive for summer is the fine
white leather belt, with a side bag to
match, both absolutely plain.
Pretty silk ties, wide and with half
inch hemstitched hem, come in black and
blue and white. The ends are pointed.
The dropped shoulder effect is OBJ
served On many of the lace yoke cos
tunes, and promises to be almost as pop
ular as it was last summer.
Handsome materials for the woman
who wishes to dress richly in black are

small figures covering them almost sol

waist is to have the front embroidered
in some rich and tasteful design, leaving
the rest of the waist absolutely without
