Tailor Costumes.

There is no time of year when this
class Of dress is not a necessity in a
goman's wardrobe; it must adapt
itself to circumstances. To meet the
needs of spring and summer the coat
must either be discardable or suitable
to wear indoors and out. Many are
worn without shirt or blouse or un-
derbodice of any kind, only a vest at
he throat, generally transparent, or a
lace scarf daintily tied.
This sort of garment has rather ex-
tended it's field and is being made, not
only in glace sometimes, but very
often in etamine, canvas. grenadine
and even in wolfe and crepe de chine.
So it happens that the tailor takes the
dressmaker's place, and that the
dressmaker is doing tailor's work and
is even sending out serges, friezes or
cloth suits.

The young English girl of the period
is responsible for rather nice innova-
ton, namely, the tea frock. The tea
gown is being considered one of her
prerogatives, she has looked around
for something in the nature Of grace
full indoor frock of simplifed structure,
and the tea frock is the upshot. With
out being a princess robe, it is an all
in-one gown, and, while far from a
negligee, it is intended to be worn
without corsets. Wolfe de sole, crepe
de chine and soft silks are developed
into tea frocks, and lace is used in pro-
fusion, daintiness and elegance being
desiderata. The fact that the tea
frock dispenses with hooks, eyes, pins
and all such WEAKNESS is point in its
favor

Enr Shrunken Channel.

It is possible to wash flannels with.
out shrinking them, but the average
laundress does not know the process.
Therefore it is worth while to know
how to restore shrunken garments to
their original size, or something like
1t. Try laying the article to be re-
stored on the ironing board, and lay
on it piece of cheesecloth which has
been wrung out of cold water. Press
with a hot iron until the cheesecloth
is perfectly dry. The garment will
show a marked improvement.

Petticoats of SILK.

A great many women, especially
among those whose figures are very

Italian silk, which fits the figure like

terial of which certain brands of silk
gloves are made. OF course only the
upper portion of petticoats are made OF
this silk Corset covers and other I'm.

silk daintily embroidered by hand and
trimmed with narrow lace and beading
