of patterns and materials for couple
of chains or belts. All the girl has to
do is to go to work and get in supplies
of beads when she wishes anything
new. h4-R
There are not more colors in the
spring and summer dress goods than
there are in these beads. There are
white, black and crystal to work in
for backgrounds, and not only ary
number of colors in which to weave
the different designs, but many differ
ent shades CT different colors. II only
depends upon a girls taste to produce
the prettest OF color effects. rs IN
other things, the simplest are the best.
y green and white combination for
chain and belt woven in Grecian de-
sign, to be worn with all white gowns
or with green and white, is always
good. There are black and white If
she is making something for an older
woman, or if she herself effects the
two plain tones. which are always
smart Then too, she can produce Ro-
man effects with many colors.
There are different widths in Gre
clan designs in the patterns, stars,
crosses and diamonds, and combina-
lions of all of these. The outfit for the
work consists of a small boom, five
punches of different colored beads,
package of twenty-five weaving nee
warp, and a dozen patterns. This out
fit will cost $2 A single loom costs 81,
and the beginner may select patterns
and beads at choice.

Der, two or three for narrow chain or
eighteen or tWenty-four for a belt.
These form the warp of the article to

| and held firmly in place under clamp
in the middle of the board framework
of the loom. The threads are then
carried under and over spool at one
| end of the loom, over two frets which
are notched, each thread of the warp
being carried through a separate notch,
which lAslds it out to its proper width.

loom and through a groove in the end

the design grows quickly.

small bags. stocks, and any number of
| other things.

THE GAY SUMMER
GIRL HAS BECOME
A BEAD WEAVER.

Not an Apache squaw in the West
will be gayer with bead work than
the summer girl who has gone into
bead weaving can be if she chooses
this coming season, and if she has her
own small loom for the purpose. Girls
have been running to bead chains for
some time. Such pretty color effects
can be obtained in them, and they are
so cheap that the summer girl could
have two or three chains, if she liked,
of the prettiest and most attractive
shades of blue and green, and in all
different sizes and shapes of beads.
Then, occasionally, there was a girl
lucky enough to get a real Indian
chain, not of strung beads, but Of
small ones, woven; and if she had a
belt to match she considered herself
a fortunate young woman.
That is what has been, but now the
girls are going to work for themselves,
weaving chains and belts and purses
in delightful colors and combinations
of colors at the smallest cost, for a
bunch of beads which costs only 20
cents will make a long, narrow chain
or belt of any width desired
This has become possible because a
practical reproduction of the Apache
woman's primitive loom has been
made, and with it come any number

of the checked silk and a short round
jacket of black taffeta is worn with
this.
This travelling hat is important, for
it may make or mar the costume. The
days are past when an old hat was
considered plenty good enough fol
travelling The smartest millinery
shops are filled with hats designed
exclusively for use with a travelling
toilette. They are simple, but they
have a style all their own.
Panama hats in the crush shapes
that were popular last year are still
correct for travelling wear. They are
trimmed with scarfs of Indian muslin
loosely tied about the crown. Scarfs
of coarse weave netting of dull green
red, blue or tan are also stylish.
The stitched linen hat has come into
unexpected prominence. To the wo-
man who desires to be exclusive, II
has the charm of being made to order
to suit each costume. When worn
with a linen travelling suit it is bound
with the same material which is used
for the suit strapping.
If these simpler models do not suit
any individual woman she has a wide
range of more elaborate headgear
from which to choose. But she must
see to it that her choice does not
violate the rules of travelling simple
ity. Toques and turban effects are
the most practical. Flowers and
plumes must be avoided, and ribbons
and quilts form the only trimmings.
Champagne and ecru are favorite col
ors in straw.
Made hats are much in favor with
women of fashion. A stylish travel
ing toque is of black and white chry-
santhemum straw. A fiat bow of the
straw mixed with black velvet ribbon
ornaments the left side.

finished the trimming of a fetching
summer coat. 1t is of ecru canvas
lined with white and yellow figured
batiste. she has woven long stole ends
for an ornamentation to the front.
They are three inches wide in a pretty
pattern of yellow beads on white
background. Narrower bands in a
similar pattern furnish the cuffs.
These bead stoles promise TO be fash
ionable, as they add a touch of ele-
gance to the simplest wrap. They will
look equally well on the popular linen
coats. Often the stole broadens to-
wards the bottom. and is finished off
by fringe of the beads. Pretty stples
for pongee coats are made of small
gilt beads. woven in a solid pattern.
Narrow bands of the woven beads
will be used to belt in the loose coats
of linen and silk. They furnish a well
come change from the suede belt of
former seasons.
Bands of about the same width are
used on Panama and stitched linen
outing and travelling hats. They are
more durable than ribbon bands and
more ornamental than leather.
The girl who strings her own bead
chains finds an unusual number of
beads from which to select, and there
is no end to the changes which NAV
be rung upon them. There are imi-
tation agate for the single strands.
and long oval beads which will add
distinction to her chain. The triple
strand chains are made in the form of
twisted rope, and generally finished
on with one or more tassels of the
beads. 1t is the same with the woven
bead chains. All of them are long
enough to circle the neck a number
OF times and tie loosely over the boz
som: The same chain may serve for a
girdle. Bead girdles, with their long
tasseleo ends, make an effective finish

A certain London firm is more sue
cessful than any other firm in the
world in the matter of artistic dyes,
and the best of American negligee
models come from it's establishment.
The colors they employ owe their
beauty to William Morris and other
gifted poets and artists, and more
than one tea-gown is an exact copy Of
some classic robe in a well-known pic
ture. With definite picture effects,
rich colors and stuffs are sometimes
combined with jeweled girdles and

over by these people, and copied here
in domestic stuffs, are in two or three
shades of thin silk, one forming the
garment, the others the trimming.
The sleeves of these are large unlined
pufts-though. in fact, no part of such
gowns are lined-three-qu quarter length,
and finished chiefly with a narrow cuff
band. others have a shaped fall of
silk for the sleeve finish, which is re-
peated by a cape-like 1ounce around
the cut-out neck.
Only upon house garments of a pre-
tentious nature is lace employed, and
the neck and sleeve frills of the silk
instead show only modest edges of
selvage.
Next in Importance to the picturesque
tea gown is the coffee jacket, which
presents an appearance a little less
careless, if we may employ the word.
Many smart women are now wearing
this dainty little garment, which runs
to unnumbered furbelows in lace and
ribbon with skirts that match it in ele-
gance instead of the full length gar
ment. Constituting an effect more "ad-
justed," as the French put it-some-
thing more of a look of fit-the coffee
jacket may be worn on less intimate
occasions than are required by negli-
gee models.
Many very pretty coats are seen in
the shops, but a woman with the knack
of the needle will do well to fashion
hers at home, as ready-made fineries
are always expensive. 1t is only the

been fashioned with an eye to a mans
appreciation or not, they strike the
gentle note a man loves. Somewhere
on the staircases of smart country
homes through the cracks of doors
supposed to be closed, ii is quite safe
to assume that his heart will be glad
dened by the sight of them. For, after
all, who does sweet woman dress for
but man?
The liberty silks employed for
many of the most picturesque of
the tea-gowns are in colors as exquis-
lite as novel. "Hortensia" is the title
given to a delicate shade of violet
in one Greek model this shade was
trimmed with a narrow border band
In gold and purple. The Greek look
of this was obtained by the square cut
and fiat treatment of the neck. and by
the addition of a peplum jacket dis
posed over the gown proper, which
hung from the shoulders with
closely gathered fulness. The flowing
sleeves which were shortest at the
inside arm, fell with Greek simplicity,
and the bordering band was disposed
around the edge of the peplum.
Some empire effects are seen
among the dressier of these gowns,
and not a few have soft mum fichus,
which becomingly drape open necks.

regulation fichu fashion.

unique design was called, revealed
the possibilities of yellow in a mar
vellous blending of a half a dozen
shades of this color.
All the tints which lie between the
palest maize and wall-fower yellow
were used, and the gauzy silk manipu-

These imported cottons are new to
the country, and they show the brill
liant vegetable dyes employed alone in
the Philippines. The most gorgeous
yellows, blues and reds wash without
losing a tinge of their brilliancy. Some
of the tints. especially a deep blue on
the mazarin order, are indescribably
rich.
Upon coarse straw hats, intended for
rough country wear, scarfs and bands
of the Philippine tissues are sometimes
seen. Headgear thus decorated is, of
course, considered very modest but

from the Philippines in the shape of
