with Sling Sleeves.

A striking feature of white cloth
evening pelisse is the sling sleeve. This
peculiar sleeve is very full and shirre1
up onto shallow yoke. 1t is edged
along the open part (the sling) with
sable. From the front this opening is
quite like some very old-fashioned gar
mepts. From the back the sleeves LOOK
like huge sagging puffs. In addition
to being edged around the neck and
down the fronts with the fur it Is
adorned with two puffs of the cloth
The lowest one Is four inches above
the edge. One goes around in line
with the bust. The sleeve, to return tC
the very novel feature, does not fall
far below the elbow, which gives op.
portunlty to show the dress sleeve.

Not For the Dumpy wot

The trimming of the new skirt covers
the entire area of the skirt, reserving u
slight bit of unclaimed surface at the
top. When the material is adaptable a
pretty conceit is represented by skirt
trimmed with three frllls-to wit, a
broad one at the bottom, narrower
one half way up, and the third and last

waist line. Lots Of sartorial soleclsms
will be spared us IL the fat, dumpy
woman will relinquish all claims to this

with its clinging, long lines, will accen-
tuate II height at least several inches.

Plaid Shirt Waist Dresses

The smartest shirt waist dresses for
designs. or color schemes in the browns
and green's, or dull two-tone plaids.
In the most expensive goods it is not
at all difficult to find the actual tartan
design, the Stewart, the Macdonald, the
Bruce, the Wallace and so on through
are Scotch descent it is the very swag.
ger thing to have shirt waist suit in
the plaid of your own clan.
The materials are heavy Scotch
wool mixture. silk mohair, wash fan
mel. light Scotch flannel. tatfeta, silk
and wool voile and straight cotton
stuffs. If you want TO be most fash
ionable you will have wash flannel
suit in some tartan color, design that
has been fought under. sung 10. and
that has been an inspiration TO The
bagpipes on many a battlefield
The wool or silk shirt waist suits al,
have pleated skirt, wide box pleats OF
narrow knife pleats, or cut circular OF
accordion pleated. And the blouses are
pleated to match, full over the chest
for perfect comfort, loose in the arm
hole. moderately full sleeves, with the
comfortable elbow spring. They are
very tailor made, all the pleats stitched
and double stitched and fatty pressed,
and the silk suits sometimes trimmed
with bands, collar and cuffs of suede
leather.
An excellent plan for washing these
Innings to prevent fading or the hag'
gard look of well rubbed fabric is TO
wash in hot suds of CASTLE soap and
boraX powder. 1t saves boiling, the
use of board and any possibility of
shrinking. Have tub half full of
water that has boiled, add four table
spoonfuls of borax and half a cake OF
shaved soap. When this is prepared it
is good plan before putting in your
Innings to first rinse out any laces or
ribbons or wells that you want to clean
quickly without injury.
Your Innings will come clean in a
few minutes light hand rubbing, and
should be rinsed In clear warm and
then in clear cold water.
This is also good method for doing
up the plaid suits of wash flannel,
which should never have permanent
Innings if there is any intention of sub.
mitting them TO laundry worries. You
simply can't wash two different sorts
of materials out in different ways so
that they will agree afterwards, and 1t
is simpler to plan them separate from
the start 1t also makes ironing easier.
The effort to iron loose blouse with a
fitted lining on the wrong side might

Fancy if mere man had to accomplish
such feats in his daily office routine.

A brown and white check in loosely
woven tweed has been successfully
converted into a stunning golfing cos
tune by famous tailor. The skirt is
plain and graceful in its ankle length
lines, and a russet brown cloth makes
the chic banded coat, which is delic-
iously negligee, blousing just trifie
all round over brown leather belt.
The fronts are turned back and faced
with the plaid. which material also
fashions the smart little waistcoat that
buttons over shirt of white linen.
The neck is arranged with the now de-
creed turnover linen collar and small
bow tie.
