lin frocks are very different matters. es-
pecially this season, for the cottons will
show fairly short skirts and the muslins
long trailing ones.
Let US start, therefore. with the useful
and inexpensive cottons, which have
much charm of their own. and are de-
lightfully becoming 10 any woman not
past her first youth. Now the majority
of US certainly do not wish 10 90 to a
high price for the cotton frock. conse-
quently the best plan is TO get one dainty
little zephyr stripe made by good
dressmaker and TO have the Others cop
led therefrom, for the skirt of the cotton
frock is all-important. The bodice do
not consider nearly so difficult, indeed
| always give the same advice concern
ing il, and that is, have a nainsook or
washing silk slip and arrange your
dainty blouse bodice over it. being al
ways careful to finish it with a tidy and
smart waistband There is little diff
ference between the cotton bodice and
the shirt for morning wear.
And now to consider the skirt. Here
i
ticoat. made plain over the hips and full
at the hem, and of exactly the same
length as the overskirt. To look neat
and be practical the skirt must clear the
ground all round. II you be slight you
can wear the round, gagged skirt; if in
clined to stoutness. let me advise you TO
have your skirt just eased in on the hips
and at the back. but kept plain in the
front, and finished with three plain
tucks or a deep hem at the feet.
These separate blouse bodices and
unlined skirts wash beautifully and 60
not get pulled out of place like those
made on tight Innings. The same thing
applies to inexpensive delaines and
French fiannels.
Then We come TO the question Of mus
Inns; again ! would recommend bright,
clear. clean shades that wash and clean
