EFFECTIVENESS OF E0LIENNE.

This season very charming dresses are
made OF this Eolienne-a fabric which par
takes of the virtues of the modern wolfe

infinite grace and lends itself to 4 PLAIN

the yoke fits tightly and the front width

WHEN THE NEW BOA
IS NOT BECOMING.

Those who nave not already succumbed
to the temptations of the modern boa must
be prepared to do so now. Under certain
Conditions 1t is not becoming.
The boa does not look well upon the short
woman.
The boa is not adapted to the double chin.
The boa requires a certain length of neck.
The boa, to be gracefully worn. must
have he couture built high for 1t.
In spite Of these restrictions, 1t is to be
seen upon everybody of every size and
shape in the feminine persuasion.
The popular ostrich feather adornment Is
very well known and its possibilities as
well as its price, fully gagged. 1t can hard

ATTRACTIVE SUNSHADE HANDLES.

Natural woods are much used. and the
delicately hued magnolia wood. the oddly
carved thistle. furze. ebony, partridge. pf-
merto and bamboo are all in fashionable
favor. But where art is especially to the
fore is in carved handles. Various kinds Of
wood, ivory. crystal. tortoise shell. mother
of pearl. and even nuts, are wrought by the
talent OF the a%rtlicer into the graceful
similitude of flowers or into animal figures.
Magnolia wood is especially effective in its
deep cream and delicate green markings
topped with the heads of swans, ducks,
rabbits and parrots. in which the individual
characteristics are realistically expressed
by the skillful touch of the carver. Han
dies OF white enameled wood are surmount-
ed with graceful figures of birds carved and
painted. A white taffeta sunshade has 4
white enameled handle, upon which perches
a stOrk. the long neck curving gracefully
downward until the beak rests against the
stick carved from wood and tinted in shad-
lngs Of delicate green.
Ebony is fashionable for both parasol and
umbrella handles, and appears in the nat
ural wood. or highly polished when ex-
tremely artistic results are accomplished.

LINE art is coHspicuousIv in evidence
L in the new parasol handles. One of
the fads this summer will be to have
beautiful handles for sunshades, and intro
duced as they are in the creation of more
expensive models. with direct reference to
the hue OF the covering. they lend them
selves to the evolution of the color scheme
of the parasoT in a way that is essentially
artistic. For example. a sunshade of white
tafeta silk with applications OF black Chan
tilly lace has a handle of ebony carved to
represent a black lotus with inner petals of
ivory y pale green taffeta sunshade has q

LA wood; one of tan taffeta shows a handle

shade of w~arp-painted ~taffeta, white with
sprays of small roses in tintipGs of pink
and green. has a white enameied handle

i very grRy-and white make a
charmingly cool combination of COL
oring which appeals ir~resistably to the fem
mime mind struggling with the problem of
dress in. these first summer days.
A cloth gown must needs be included In
the summer wardrobe, but the thinnest
quality In black or any dark color has
such a hot look that It seems impossible
to invest in It.
Of white are for the moment considered es-
pecially smart, a favorite model being the
one with short skirt, trimmed only with
narrow bias folds of the material, edged at
one side with a narrow line of white MORE.
A short coat with facings OF MORE is as
simple a coat as can be, and yet it is very
smart. Gray ponges and gray mohair are
also among the most popular materials of
the moment, and the gowns made of these
are invariably trimmed with white.

sutnmer-those charmingly simple, dainty

White Muslin for Informal
Dinner Gowns.
White muslin-and there are any number
OF. fabrics included in this term muslin-is
. more fashionable than colored. but there
are many more blue. pink and yellow mus
: Inns made up this year than last. For din
ner gowns-informal dinners during the
summer-there is nothing more appropriate
or charming than q muslin. 4 favorite
model, not new, but always in fashion, is
made with the bands of lace entre-deux:
the waist finished with narrow fchu OF the
muslin edged with lace ruffies, and short
elbow sleeves OF lace entre-deux and ruff

and alternate lines of hemstitching has a
wide founce finished with hemstitchinc,
and the waist is made TO match; and with
out waist, the low waist with the scant

Of ornament on the entire gown. This same
gown Is copied in a more expensive fashion
by having a fold Of pale blue tafeta to fin

plain muslin hem.
Batiste muslin gowns with lace applique
are also fashionable again this season, and
are even more elaborate.

Bridal Toilets May Be Remade
Into Evening Dresses.
The costly bridal toilet Is usually a white
elephant. which involves the expenditure of
money that could be spent to greater adj
vantage on garments for ordinary wear.
II such a toilet is indispensable. the vari-
Gus items should be chosen with a view to
their ultimate conversion into other shapes
and styles. For instance. the separate
train could be of handsome broca' e, lined
with glace silk and the inner edge bordered
with a ruche.
The brocade Will make an evening coat.
the glace can be transformed into a slip to
wear under a black gown, edged with the
ruche, and inserted with lace. The gown
itself could be of crepe de Chine trimmed
with ivory lace, with sleeves to the elbows,
so as to form a dinner or evening toilet.
For a quiet country wedding a stylish white
outdoor toilet is often chosen. A hat or
toQue with daintily arranged tulle veil IS
worn. For summer wedding this type Of
costume may be of soft liberty silk. muslin
or any of the thin silks. In spring or
autumn white cloth or serge is more suit
able, with a plumed hat or a toQue with
handsome osprey.
Skirt Arranged to Hang
Like a Separate Train.
A beautiful model which is intended for
soft, limp satin Orientals in a pale ivory
tint, has the skirt arranged to simulate a
separate train, but this effect is due to the
cut and to the fact of the back being un-
trimmed Each side of the train is laid on
with a deep fold at the side, and the gored
front and sides reaching to the ground are
trimmed with pleated founees Of chiffon,
ruched with the same fabric. Down the
front Of the skirt there IS a: broad hand
some insertion and this is used on the
to form a yoke. n continue down

low velvet. AS a rule lace gowns are SO
severely simple in design that this Is Il de-
cided change. Lace coats, long and short,
are worn with all gowns. and the sleeve
less lace boleros have been for some time
worn over silk, yelling or chiffon waists
but, of course, are not at all smart in the
sense of being new.
Light MOhair Not So
Smart as Pongee.
Travelling gowns of mohair are smart and
are certainly practical. for the dust can so
easily be brushed off. and. besides. the ma
terial is so Delightfully."- cool and yet has
more weight than any wash fabric. The
mohaiT gown of light color is not so smart
this year as the pongee to wear for travel
ing: some people prefer the latter, but mo-
hair Will always be in demand The plain
black or dark blue. with fine hair line or a
polka dot of white, is especially attractive,
but the plain colors are not in the least out
of date. and. in fact, are really more in de-
mand. An excellent model among the new
mohair gowns IS a dark blue, trimmed with
narrow black soutache braid. The skirt, in
broad box pleats, has the braid on each side
of the pleats. The jacket is short, but with
square postillion tabs at the back, and is
trimmed with rows of the braid at either
side of a white Irish lace insertion. The
sleeves are full below. but are OF medium
size. and the fullness is gathered into a
Shlrred band below. which is a Haring cum
of the lace and braid.
Wedding Gowns of Soft,
Summary Materials.
The up-to-date bride no longer clings to
the traditional white satin, founced with
lace, but selects such snowy materials as
suit her fancy and has them made in the
most becoming fashion of the moment. The
separate court train is generally selected
when the bride Will be presented after her
marriage. and some brides wear the we'd
ding gown in its entirety, the bodice be-
ing made convertible by lace yoke and
sleeves. Many wedding gowns are made of
soft. summary materials, so that the gown,
shorn Of its bridal blossoms, may serve as
an outdoor toilet for smart summer wear.
A favorite method Is to have a handsome
trained gown of creamy white satin in the
very latest mode for evening wear, and
transform 1t into a high-neeked gown with
a yoke and long sleeves arranged on a slip,
SO that the gown requires no alteration
when used as a ball or dinner gown.
Very dainty bridal dresses are of ivory
crepe de Chine trimmed with ruches Of
chiffon and soft lace. II the skirt is trained
