the tiounces-that is. novelty in
those days, for pleated frills of this
sort We're worn no longer ago than

the viole. On the bodice a narrower

But in the way of garniture the puff

forms, too, are made with frill treat

sewed on at the extreme edge is
most seen. Black and white dresses

a party gown and had withstood the
cleaning process. was fulled in. The
neck was cut square and edged with
the beading. With this little negligee
she wears blue moccasins of soft kid,
with little silk pompons.
Moccasins and sandals are much
used with negligees. They come in
beautiful colors and are not expensive.
The sandals are sometimes strapped
to the hight OF the ordinary walking
gee. and stockings of the same color
are worn. House moccasins can be
bought IS low as forty-nine cents in
pale colors. and help on a growing
tendency among the American women
to be more and more dainty in negli-
gee attire. Some quaint moccasins are
shown at higher prices in genuine
skins.
Elk skin, which is of a delicate
champagne color. is combined with
bit of moose fur. Sheep skin, in
rusty reddish brown finish, is gaily
beaded, and these must appeal particu-
larly to the girl who goes in for sports
and athletics.
Two pretty short kimonas have been
put on the market this summer. One

favor with the advance of the season.
Trimming in self tone is used, and
lingerie ruffies of a fine quality of
linen edged lace and accordion pleat-
ing, are employed in the sleeves. If
the journey is short and the half
holiday girl desires to make a some
what dressy appearance on entering
the presence of her hostess, this is a
neat suit to wear. The eton is the
favorlte short jacket, and long coats
take the form of the dust-wrap, which
is similar to the automobile coat and
can be employed for the same pur-
pose.
The summer dinner gown is a work
of art, and when a room is filled with
pretty women in their Powered organ
dies and mulls, it is more like a stage
picture than "a glimpse into the pro-
sale American home life.
The new French pompadour nets in
floral figures lend themselves admir-
ably to diner frocks. If a little band

new skirt. Velvet ribbon bands with
lace is much used on the pompadour
nets. and should be just trifie deeper
in tone than the lowered figure.
If a silk dress is carried. it should
have detachable accessories of lace,
such as bertha, yoke, vest or half
sleeves. These things will pack much
better if they are separated from the
gown. The fiaring 1880 skirt, with it's

a mussy appearance if wrinkled in
