Woman's Tucked Blouse or Shirt Waist
l40S.-To be made with or without the
fitted lining. Shirt waists that include
double box plaits in front with wide back
ward-turning tucks are exceedingly fash
ionabie and make up most effectively in all
the seasons materials. The very stylish
model illustrated is shown in white mer-
cerized linen and is finished with machine
stitching and small pearl buttons, but silk
and wool waistings are appropriate as we'll
as all the cotton and linen fabrics offered
The waist consists of the plain back and
the fronts which are laid in rather wide
tucks, stitched at their underfolds and
again at the edges through two thicknesses
only. The original is made unlined, but
silk and wool materials are better when
the fitted foundation is used. The box
plaits in front are stitched through the
center and the closing is made with small
buttons and buttonholes worked through
the front portion OF the right box plait.
The quantity of material required for the
medium size is AZ yards 21 inches wide, S&
yards "a inches wide, 3% yards 80 inches
wide, 3h yards "A inches wide.
The waist pattern 44OS is cut in sizes for
a 32, a 36, 3S and 4O-inch bust measure

Foreign Financial.

LONDON, May Sl.-The EPSON races, the
approach of the holidays and the settle
nient combined to reduce the weeks busI-
ness on the Stock exchange. The leading
feature of the week has been the weakness
in the American market, where the fall In
securities attained serious dimensions The
sharp decline in copper stocks and forced
sales OF Rio Tintos also assisted 70 bring a
opinion, however, that no serious trouble
need be anticipated, and there are already
signs of brokers coming into the market,
both here and on the continent, attracted
by low prices There were no important
movements in the other markets. The
stagnation in South American mines, pend
ing the solution OF the labor problem, still
Influences adversely all the markets.
